Chapter 53

Jiang Wei's shot was extremely fierce; even before the gun was fired, the momentum had already soared into the sky.

At this moment, the little demon only noticed the abnormality behind him, but it was too late! When he turned his head, Jiang Wei's spear was already there.

Pfft!

The spear pierced through the little demon's soul without any pause, and the secret technique "Soul Devouring" began to疯狂地吞噬起灵魂能量来。

"Ahhh!!" The little demon screamed in agony and cried for help, "Lord of the Hall, come and save me, Lord of the Hall!!!"

"Hmph!" Jiang Wei's momentum with the spear did not change, and he continued to attack the little demon fiercely; however, Jiang Wei had a strong sense of foreboding—was the Lord of the Hall nearby because the little demon was shouting so loudly?

But at that moment, there was no time for Jiang Wei to hesitate. His spear tore the little demon into several pieces without mercy.

"Do you want to reincarnate?" Jiang Wei suddenly asked, "If you want to reincarnate, I won't stop you!"

"Reincarnate?" The little demon, though torn into pieces, could still speak, "Are you insulting me? Can we, the evil spirits, dare to reincarnate?"

In this situation, the little demon would not beg Jiang Wei to spare him; in the Ghost Realm, evil spirits were synonymous with packages of merit, and no one would let them go.

At this moment, the little demon could only hope that the Lord of the Hall would come. If the Lord of the Hall arrived in time, there was a chance to save him; or even if he came a bit late, he could kill Jiang Wei to avenge him.

But the little demon was also very clear that he had almost no chance of holding out until the Lord of the Hall arrived!

"My life has ended..." Reincarnation only meant the end of this life; but if the soul was scattered, it meant the end of all lives.

Under Jiang Wei's fierce attack, the little demon's soul continuously shattered and thinned. Finally, he had to give up; in a moment, he would be scattered and completely disappear from the world.

"Lord of the Hall, avenge me!!!" The little demon let out his last scream, filled with endless sorrow, unwillingness, and regret. But Jiang Wei had no sympathy at all.

Anyone who became an evil spirit after death must have committed heinous crimes in life; killing evil spirits was not only upholding justice but also avenging the innocent victims of the evil spirits.

"Die!" There was no mercy in Jiang Wei's eyes.

At this moment, the little demon's soul was as fragile as a candle in a strong wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment. And Jiang Wei's spear, imbued with "Soul Devouring," was already there.

But at that moment—

Bang!

A feather fan flew from somewhere and directly hit Jiang Wei's spear. The feather fan, which should have been weightless, felt to Jiang Wei like it had hit a block of incredibly heavy black iron. Fortunately, Jiang Wei held his spear steady, or it would have been knocked away.

"Such strength!"

In one exchange, Jiang Wei understood that the newcomer was incredibly powerful, far beyond his ability to resist.

"Lord... Lord of the Hall!" The little demon, who had already lost all hope, was suddenly overjoyed.

Run!

At this moment, Jiang Wei had no time to deal with the little demon and immediately used "Light Wind" to escape.

"Is this the Lord of the Evil Spirit Hall?" Jiang Wei knew the gap between himself and the other was too great. A feather fan from a distance almost knocked his spear away; if they fought face-to-face, he would probably be defeated in one move.

Facing such a terrifying enemy, Jiang Wei knew he had no chance of winning; his only hope was to run.

"Whoosh—"

Jiang Wei didn't even see the other's figure before he turned into a gust of wind and fled at top speed.

"I hope he doesn't chase me!" Although Jiang Wei was confident in his speed, the other's strength far exceeded his expectations; he wasn't sure if the other could catch up.

If such an opponent really caught up, he would surely die.

So Jiang Wei had only one thought—run!

"Lord of the Hall..." The little demon, now only a wisp of soul, drifted toward the newcomer, "Why don't you chase him?"

The little demon, who had long followed the Lord of the Hall, knew his strength well; seeing the Lord of the Hall stay and not chase, he was puzzled.

"Forget it..." The Lord of the Hall, dressed in a deep blue robe and holding a feather fan, said, "This ghost is a disciple of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion; let it be!"

Although Jiang Wei didn't see the Lord of the Hall, the Lord of the Hall had already seen Jiang Wei clearly, even the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion identity token hidden in his ghost armor.

It was precisely because of this token that the Lord of the Hall was hesitant and dared not act rashly.

The little demon was不服: "Lord of the Hall, I don't understand—what if he is a disciple of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion? Who would know it was us who killed him? Besides, with your strength, do you fear the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion!?"

"Killing him would be easy, but what if the news leaks? At that time, I wouldn't be afraid, but what about you?" The Lord of the Hall shook his head helplessly, "Moreover, my yin life is almost over. After I leave, who will protect you? Now, we, the Evil Spirit Hall, can't afford to offend any force!"

Humans have yang life, and ghosts have yin life.

When yang life ends, even if your body is healthy, you can only die of natural causes and be reborn in the Ghost Realm; when yin life ends, there are two choices—reincarnation or soul scattering!

Although the Lord of the Hall was immensely powerful, he could only helplessly accept his fate. Moreover, as an evil spirit, the Lord of the Hall might not choose reincarnation but directly choose soul scattering—after all, many evil spirits, even if they reincarnate, would still face soul scattering due to their past sins.

Reincarnation, for many evil spirits, was just another lifetime of suffering before soul scattering. Since that was the case, it might as well be soul scattering to avoid suffering in the next life.

Of course, some evil spirits, after suffering in the next life, did not scatter but survived by chance. However, this was only a small number of evil spirits.

...

Jiang Wei used "Light Wind" to flee to the cliffside of the valley and, seeing no ghosts chasing him, finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Did he not catch up to me, or did he not come at all?" Jiang Wei didn't dare to stay here long.

However, just as Jiang Wei was about to climb up the cliff and leave, a ghostly figure suddenly fell from above.

"Hmm, a ghost!?" Jiang Wei looked up and saw that the ghostly figure was also surrounded by sinful blood light, "Another evil spirit!"

This misty valley was clearly the lair of the evil spirits, and it might not be a branch but the main hall of the Evil Spirit Hall. Therefore, seeing an evil spirit here didn't surprise Jiang Wei at all.

But when he saw the face of this evil spirit, Jiang Wei immediately lost his composure.

" Meng Feiyun!!!"
