But just as the Blue-Faced Ghost was about to attack, Lin Luo stopped him.
"I suggest you stay out of this. This Flaying Ghost brought me here, so I have to ensure his safety."
At those words, the Blue-Faced Ghost, who had been red-eyed with fury, froze on the spot.
The Blue-Faced Ghost recognized Lin Luo as a player at a glance.
A sinister smile appeared on the Blue-Faced Ghost's face. In his eyes, players were nothing but fragile vermin, fit to be tortured to death or enjoyed as food.
"Vermin, if you want to die in the Flaying Ghost's place, I can show you some mercy and grant your wish!"

In fact, things went exactly as the Flaying Ghost had expected.
As Lin Luo released terrifying fluctuations of Ghost Power, the Blue-Faced Ghost's savage smile vanished, his expression changing dramatically.
Although the Blue-Faced Ghost was powerful enough to possess the terrifying strength of the very peak of the Ghost General Tier,
there was still a gulf between him and Lin Luo.
Overawed by those fierce fluctuations of Ghost Power, the Blue-Faced Ghost's entire body froze in place, unable to move.
"Young man, I was only joking just now. Since you want to protect the Flaying Ghost, I'll spare him for now."
Wary of Lin Luo, the Blue-Faced Ghost did not dare act viciously any longer and forced out a strained smile.
But Lin Luo showed no intention of letting the matter rest at
