Those words seemed to strike a nerve in the little girl ghost. Her howls grew even more shrill as she accused and complained.
Master Li could not save face and could only insist over and over that he had done nothing wrong.
The little ghost did not seem to understand what those words meant, but it could sense its sister's resentment, so it was furious too, stubbornly convinced that the hateful man before it was to blame.
Its suffering grew, yet it could not find the source of its pain. It became violently agitated, baring its teeth as it flew toward the humans.
The little girl ghost's ghost power multiplied explosively. She began struggling in Jiang Nuo's grasp, determined to kill every human here!
As for Master Li...
He was entangled by the ghost couple, who had happened to float out and hear the truth.
Mr. Li could not believe that his death, and even the deaths of his entire family, had not simply been because they had conceived a ghost fetus.
It was because his father had refused to see reason!
His Zhongshan suit hung loosely on his body. Endless resentment filled his eyes as his withered fingers clamped around Master Li's neck and low growls came from his throat.
The wife's resentment was the strongest. Her black hair spread wildly, and her nails grew at a frenzied pace. She even showed faint signs of surpassing Master Li.
"I'll kill you!"
"You killed my child!"
She shrieked incessantly, her voice desperate and terrifying.
Thunder and lightning suddenly erupted in the courtyard.
As ghost fought ghost, the Ghost Domain containing them began to destabilize.
What a vicious mind!!! Someone like Master Li... no, a ghost like him deserved to go to hell!
No wonder the little girl ghost resented this family so much. She had died young and been peacefully buried with her brother, only to suddenly be dug up and turned into yin feng shui...
The wife had it worst! After finally carrying her baby for ten months, just when she was about to give birth, the little ghost parasitized her! How terrifying!
Okay, okay, I finally believe this isn't scripted. The writers for this crappy variety show couldn't come up with a script this intense!
Holy shit, holy shit, look at Si Yan!
Taking advantage of the chaos, the child evil ghost quietly crawled up to the edge of the safety circle, but its hand was scorched the moment it reached out.
Its eyes, like black grapes, slowly lifted, catching sight of the somewhat restless Tian Dong.
Its mouth immediately split into a grin, revealing closely packed teeth, and it blew a breath onto the back of Tian Dong's neck.
Unfortunately, everyone was watching the battle ahead. Apart from the viewers posting bullet comments, no one noticed at all.
Tian Dong turned his head and looked over in confusion. When he saw the child evil ghost, he surprisingly felt no fear.
Instead, he found its aura very comfortable.
Far more comfortable than staying in this so-called safety circle.
The child evil ghost quietly extended its sharp black nails and pointed at the red cord on the ground.
Then it made a chopping motion.
Tian Dong understood immediately.
That's right.
If I break the red cord, I won't feel uncomfortable anymore.
He sneakily turned and crouched, pinching the red cord on the ground.
His palm hurt a little, burning painfully.
But Tian Dong paid it no mind. He simply tightened his grip, intending to snap it apart.
Just then, a foot stepped on the cord.
Puzzled, Tian Dong looked up and met Si Yan's eyes.
His whole body jolted.
Since joining this variety show, he had never seen such an expression on Si Yan's face.
Icy and sinister, like a demonic god from hell.
"What are you trying to do?"
Destroy Nuonuo's handiwork?
"I..."
Before he could get the words out, Si Yan effortlessly grabbed the child evil ghost's head and shook it in the air in disgust.
Then he spat out three words.
"You ugly thing."
The child evil ghost: "..."
All the guests who turned to look: "..."
"Hah!"
How could it possibly stand that? It immediately flailed its claws, trying to bite Si Yan's head.
"You're filthy. Don't touch me."
Si Yan threw it away, utterly disgusted.
Lin Yu caught sight of the camera out of the corner of his eye and abruptly ducked behind Si Yan.
"Si Yan, I'm a little scared."
From this particular angle, it looked as though Si Yan was shielding him, keeping the little ghost from coming near.
The bullet comments immediately began clamoring.
Don't be scared, Yuyu!! Si Yan will protect you!
Si Yan, you have to protect Lin Yu! He doesn't know any ghost-catching skills. He only came on this variety show for you!
The Ink Wash fans could not sit still. Why did those words sound so unpleasant?
WTF, are you people sick?! You're still trying to leech off him here! Don't you know Si Yan is scared too?!
Without Jiang Nuo's safety circle, how would Si Jiaojiao ever dare grab a ghost?! And you want him to protect someone else? Get lost, you bloodsucking fans!
My guy isn't a prop for you to ship your blood-sugar romance. Leave him alone, thanks... spread one more rumor and a vengeful ghost will crawl through your window tonight~
Why come if he can't do anything? To leech? My guy has thousands of ships, and your Lin Yu is the most disgusting! j
The Ink Wash fangirls had fought alongside Si Yan all this time, after all. What kind of bloody fan war had they not experienced? They immediately shut down Lin Yu's fans and the ship fans, leaving them not daring to post even a single bullet comment.
Lin Yu had no idea the bullet comments were already in chaos. Not only did he hide behind Si Yan, he even grabbed the hem of his clothes.
The little ghost charged over again just then. Si Yan blocked it with his wrist, and everyone thought it was the bracelet Jiang Nuo had given him taking effect.
In reality, spiritual power stirred unseen, turning into invisible blades.
Yang Xiaoxiao was terrified and worried that Si Yan would lose, so she quickly shouted at the top of her lungs, "Brother Jiang!! There's a ghost over here!"
Fortunately, the safety circle still worked.
The little ghost could not get through at all and could only passively endure Si Yan's attacks. It was nearly beaten into questioning its ghostly existence.
Its sister was in just as miserable a state.
The little girl ghost was like modeling clay in Jiang Nuo's hands, utterly unable to resist. The ghost power she had finally accumulated had nowhere to go, and somehow a whole lot of it was even absorbed.
With a shriek, the little girl ghost was thrown out, landing squarely on her younger brother.
The two little ghosts clung to each other, trembling.
Jiang Nuo approached step by step. When he reached the safety circle, he even helped pull the ghost-suppressing needle out of the little ghost's crown.
"You two are very pitiful, but how could you kill their whole family? That was far too bold."
Although that was what he said, the guests somehow felt that Jiang Nuo was not moved in the slightest.
He brought out another talisman.
"Thunder quakes, all ghosts submit!"
A tremendous thunderbolt crashed down, and the two little ghosts embracing each other vanished without a trace.
Meanwhile, the ghost couple could surprisingly only fight Master Li, with his venomous yin energy, to a standstill by joining forces.
Jiang Nuo did not seem to want to involve himself in this karma.
He pulled away the red cord serving as the safety circle and threw it straight over the ghost couple's heads.
A talisman was attached to it as well.
But the paper was bright red, like cinnabar, yet also like fresh blood.
When the red cord, which could harm vengeful ghosts, landed on the two ghosts, it inexplicably increased their power instead.
Master Li could not beat them, and his ghostly energy began leaking out.
"Why is that, Brother Jiang?" Yang Xiaoxiao asked.
