His teammate was Shang Xueli. Though the swordswoman did not shout or scream, she kept thrusting her longsword at the Human-Skin Ghost, which seemed somewhat afraid of her blade and would retreat to avoid its edge.
But Shang Xueli clearly could not kill the Human-Skin Ghost floating in midair either, so the two sides fell into a back-and-forth tug-of-war.
Li Pu's weapon was a needle!
Whenever he noticed a Human-Skin Ghost getting too close, he would fling a needle at it, driving it back for a moment.

Just then.
Everyone heard that arrogant roar and could
