Chapter 56

"Run?"

Jiang Wei sneered, and Erdan also sneered. Even Tuxiaodao joined in with a disdainful laugh.

Jiang Wei was a core disciple of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion, and he was the beloved disciple of Elder Bai, who was known for being protective of his disciples. In the Sin City, Jiang Wei was undoubtedly the top dog.

Who would dare to provoke Jiang Wei? If they did, Jiang Wei would let Erdan bite them! If Erdan couldn't handle it, he would let his master, Elder Bai, bite them!

"Woof! Big Brother, what should we do with these five little brats?" Erdan completely ignored the hundreds of ghost soldiers who were brimming with murderous intent.

"Kill them!" Jiang Wei waved his hand, completely unconcerned.

Jiang Wei noticed that for some reason, ever since he came to the Ghost Realm, his temperament had become increasingly cold. If he were still alive, he would never have harbored murderous thoughts over such a trivial matter.

"Is it because of the environment in the Ghost Realm?" The cold and constantly violent environment of the Ghost Realm could indeed easily make ghosts become bloodthirsty.

However, Jiang Wei overlooked the fact that a significant reason for his increasingly violent temper after coming to the Ghost Realm was Meng Feiyun, who was strung up on his spear.

Meng Feiyun was a thorn in Jiang Wei's side. If this thorn remained unresolved for a long time, Jiang Wei would become increasingly cold and violent. But now that Meng Feiyun had been captured and was strung up on the spear, unable to resist, even suicide or reincarnation was impossible. It wouldn't be long before Jiang Wei could resolve this thorn in his side.

But before that, Jiang Wei still had to deal with these clowns in front of him.

"Kill them!"

Jiang Wei wouldn't do it himself; if he personally killed them, he would be burdened with sin. But if Erdan did it, neither he nor Erdan would be burdened with sin.

"Woof!"

Erdan was guarding five pieces of meat, waiting for Jiang Wei's command. As soon as Jiang Wei gave the order, Erdan pounced on the five ghosts without hesitation.

"I've never eaten a human soul before!" Erdan thought happily.

"Swallowing souls is fine, but don't cut off their chance of reincarnation!" Jiang Wei still had principles.

This life's matters should be resolved in this life; in the next life, they would be completely new souls after being purified. Unless absolutely necessary, Jiang Wei wouldn't cut off other ghosts' chances of reincarnation.

"Woof, understood!" Erdan replied, "Xiaodao, don't just stand there, come and try it too!"

"You're in trouble yourselves, and you're still thinking about eating us!?" The ghost soldiers Chen and Zhao were not only unafraid but also very arrogant.

Hundreds of ghost soldiers were rapidly approaching. They truly didn't believe they would be eaten by other ghosts right at their doorstep!

"Uh..." The little girl who was about to drag Jiang Wei away was also stunned, "Big Brother, we should run... If we don't run, we'll be surrounded..."

Jiang Wei gave her a reassuring look but didn't explain anything.

"Ah..." The little girl didn't know where Jiang Wei's confidence came from, daring to challenge the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion head-on. But she was very loyal—Jiang Wei was her savior, and she wouldn't run away alone if Jiang Wei didn't.

"Ridiculous!!!"

At this moment, the ghost soldier captain, seeing Jiang Wei inciting his dog to attack, finally couldn't bear it. This was the gate of Sin City. If the dog really ate the ghost soldiers guarding the gate, where would his face be, and where would the face of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion be?

With a loud shout, the ghost soldier captain led his subordinates to charge forward. Hundreds of ghost soldiers, working together in formation, were fearless even against three ghosts at the peak of the Divine Spirit stage. Moreover, in the ghost soldier captain's view, Jiang Wei and his dog and rabbit were just a dog with a soul strength of eighty times, while the other two were not worth worrying about.

However, when the army was halfway through their charge, they suddenly stopped.

Swish—

Hundreds of ghost soldiers came to an abrupt halt, and their eyes all focused on the jade talisman in Jiang Wei's hand.

"Heavenly Wasteland Order!" The ghost soldier captain drew a sharp breath.

The jade talisman of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion was only possessed by its formal disciples. Ordinary ghosts like Zhou Lei might not recognize it, but these ghost soldiers, as peripheral members of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion, would never mistake it!

Formal disciples of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion were completely above these peripheral members. The reason was simple—any formal disciple would inevitably become a great ghost at the Soul Condensation stage, while these peripheral members could only reach the peak of the Divine Spirit stage, with almost no hope of advancing to the Soul Condensation stage.

The Soul Condensation stage and the Divine Spirit stage were two completely different concepts. Even if Jiang Wei had seen a great ghost at the Soul Condensation stage in action, he still couldn't understand the vast difference between the Soul Condensation stage and the Divine Spirit stage.

However, Jiang Wei understood one thing—the identity of a formal disciple of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion was very prestigious.

So, facing the hundreds of ghost soldiers charging forward, Jiang Wei calmly took out his identity jade talisman. Then, all the ghost soldiers dared not move.

"Pay respects to the Great Ghost!" The ghost soldier captain bowed deeply.

In the human world, people with high status were called "Sir"; in the Ghost Realm, prestigious ghosts were called "Great Ghosts." Of course, "Great Ghost" was generally a title for Soul Condensation stage powerhouses. Jiang Wei, with only Divine Spirit stage strength, should be called a "Little Ghost."

"No, I'm just a little ghost!" Jiang Wei waved his hand.

"May I ask how the Great Ghost should be addressed, and if there are any orders?" The ghost soldier captain still insisted on calling Jiang Wei a "Great Ghost."

In fact, even if a formal disciple of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion was only at the Divine Spirit stage, they still had the right to be called a "Great Ghost"—because as long as they lived, they would definitely achieve the Soul Condensation stage! The ghost soldier captain calling Jiang Wei a "Great Ghost" was just starting early.

"Jiang Wei!" Jiang Wei put away the jade talisman and said with a hint of arrogance, "Forget the orders, just go back to your positions. As for these two ghost soldiers, they annoy me, so I'll kill them—can I?"

"Yes!" The ghost soldier captain didn't hesitate, leading his subordinates back without even sparing a glance at Chen and Zhao.

What was there to look at?—The Ghost Realm was different from the human world. Among ghost soldiers, there was mostly no friendship or affection. The ghost soldier captain and Chen and Zhao had no friendship, and he even slightly disliked them.

Seeing the captain abandon them, Chen and Zhao were instantly terrified: "Captain... Captain, save us!" At this moment, only the ghost soldier captain could give them a little sense of security, and it was just a little, and...

This little sense of security was about to be shattered!

"Hehe!" Erdan's fierce ghost tongue cruelly swept across their faces.
