Li Zhuang and the other two lay prostrate by the entrance. When they saw Rakshasa Lady Ten and Ghost King Zhong leave one after the other, they all let out heavy sighs of relief.
Neither of those two powerful Evil Spirits had so much as spared them a proper glance.
Yet their overwhelming presence had weighed on their hearts like a mountain, leaving them afraid even to breathe.
But just as they relaxed, Li Zhuang suddenly tensed, his heart stopping!
An inexplicable chill erupted through him, making every hair on his body stand on end!
For some reason, he felt as though he had plunged into an ice cellar, and an intense sense of danger rose within him!
The moment that feeling struck, he wanted to flee as fast as he could.
But his violently trembling body could not move an inch!
Just then, a pair of boots appeared before his eyes, frightening him out of his wits!
He had not raised his head to check, but in an instant, he knew who those boots belonged to.
It was Ghost King Zhong, who stood above the rules!
What was going on?
Why had this Ghost Monarch suddenly come back?
And why was he standing right in front of me?!
Cold sweat streamed down Li Zhuang's forehead. Utterly terrified, he kept praying that Ghost King Zhong would leave quickly.
Little did he know that Ghost King Zhong had returned specifically to settle the score with him!
"You enjoy bullying people, do you?"
Those utterly calm words plunged Li Zhuang into despair, crushing every last shred of hope!
In a single instant, he understood.
Ghost King Zhong had surely returned to avenge Tang Xiaoling!
"I... I..."
Li Zhuang trembled, stammering for ages without managing a complete sentence.
It was not that he did not want to speak. He was so terrified that his mind had gone blank and his entire body had gone numb.
Even if he wanted to defend himself, he had no idea what to say.
Of course, even if he had spoken, Ghost King Zhong could not have been bothered to listen.
With a cold laugh, he addressed the Evil Spirits outside the entrance:
"From now on, keep a close eye on him."
"He doesn't get to rest until he's cleaned this entire Amusement Park until it's spotless!"
With that, he turned and left without looking back.
Hearing this, Li Zhuang collapsed on the ground, his face deathly pale.
Clean the entire Amusement Park until it was spotless?
Was Ghost King Zhong trying to work me to death?!
I'm doomed!!!
But as Li Zhuang wailed inwardly, two Evil Spirits entered and dragged him outside without a word.
Then they tossed him some cleaning tools and stood nearby, holding whips.
"What are you waiting for? Didn't you hear the Ghost Monarch's orders? Get to work!"
One of the Evil Spirits barked, then raised its long whip and lashed Li Zhuang viciously.
Crack!
At the sharp sound, Li Zhuang sucked in a breath.
The searing pain snapped him back to his senses.
Scrambling frantically, he grabbed a rag and knelt on the ground to begin scrubbing.
But he had barely wiped twice when the other Evil Spirit struck him hard again!
"Damn it! At that pace, when are you ever going to finish?"
"Move faster! How long do you expect me to stay here with you?!"
Feeling the burning pain across his back, Li Zhuang flushed red and clenched his teeth, not daring to let out the slightest cry.
He feared that he would upset the two Evil Spirits again and they would beat him to death!
All he could do was move his hands faster, hoping to get the floor clean sooner.
The problem was that the entire Amusement Park covered more than ten thousand square meters.
Even if he scrubbed until the end of time, he could never make it spotless!
But to stay alive, he did not dare resist. He could only obey.
Deep down, however, he still clung to a sliver of hope.
As long as I hold out for three days, I'll clear it.
Then I can leave this Instance alive!
Unfortunately, his hopes were rosy, but reality was harsh.
As he continued cleaning, the surrounding Evil Spirits gathered one after another.
Every one of them held some sort of torture implement.
Whenever they noticed Li Zhuang slacking off even slightly, they immediately used it on him.
In less than ten minutes, Li Zhuang's back had become a mangled mess of flesh, blood pouring from his wounds!
Still kneeling by the entrance, Roman and Old He felt their scalps prickle when they saw Li Zhuang's miserable condition.
At the same time, they were grateful that they had never targeted Tang Xiaoling.
Otherwise, they would probably have died in this Instance tonight too!
The viewers watching the livestream all sighed at the sight.
Li Zhuang had truly brought this upon himself!
He had been so smug when he stole Tang Xiaoling's identity card.
Who would have thought she was a little princess, with a Ghost Monarch backing her up?!
Now look at him-tormented by a crowd of ghosts, he could not have been more miserable!
Then the Stream Viewers switched feeds to watch Tang Xiaoling riding the Ferris wheel.
But in the very next moment, they all collectively sank into gloom!
The Ferris wheel had originally been a dilapidated wreck, swaying precariously and lacking even a door.
Now it glittered with lights, looking brand-new!
Not only was its paint bright and glossy, but even its door was made of sturdy steel plate!
What the viewers found hardest to accept, however, was the countless brilliant fireworks bursting directly opposite the Ferris wheel!
With the stars twinkling in the night sky, the scene could not have been more romantic!
"Wait... is this really something you're supposed to see in an Evil Spirit Instance? Seriously, I'm crying!"
"Obviously! She's a little princess. Of course she deserves fairy-tale romance!"
"This is unfair! I could clear ten Evil Spirit Instances like this!"
"Keep dreaming, buddy! Don't you know what you're worth? If you enter an Instance, all that's waiting for you is Evil Spirits!"
The entire livestream chat overflowed with jealousy.
In particular, Stream Viewers who had cleared Instances practically cried themselves unconscious in front of their screens at the sight.
They had barely managed to clear their Instances after enduring all sorts of inhuman treatment.
Meanwhile, this four-year-old little girl was having the time of her life!
They could not help exclaiming in unison.
It really paid to have powerful parents!
And so, steeped in jealousy, the Stream Viewers watched the dazzling fireworks.
Only after a full seven or eight minutes did the display finally stop.
Lady Ten carried the already sleeping Tang Xiaoling out of the Ferris wheel.
The tender smile on her face stirred yet another wave of envy among the Stream Viewers.
Eventually, Lady Ten walked toward a building and entered a luxurious room.
To protect the participants' privacy, the day's livestream ended the instant she entered the room.
But the Stream Viewers sitting in front of their screens were still left wanting more.
They could hardly wait to find out what other unexpected surprises the Evil Spirit Amusement Park had in store to pamper this little princess!
Meanwhile.
That night, River City's airport had already been placed under complete lockdown!
Armed troops carrying loaded weapons guarded every entrance and exit!
Inside the airport, armed helicopters landed one after another...
