CHAPTER 426: CHAPTER 425: GHOST WALL (SECOND UPDATE)

In the beginning, no one paid any attention; they had seen this kind of mist many times before.

But soon, they realized something was wrong. The car was less than fifty meters away from them, yet they had been walking for a long time and were still on the road.

One of them, with a sharp gaze toward the front, confidently said, "We’ve encountered a skilled individual; this is a ’Ghost Wall’ warning right from the start!"

The companions around him, all of whom had seen blood on their hands, had previously witnessed various supernatural events in many places and knew quite a bit.

Almost as soon as that person mentioned it was a Ghost Wall, the others immediately gathered together, forming a circle with their backs against one another.

"If someone is timid and afraid, they might be scared half to death when encountering this Ghost Wall, but, unfortunately, this maneuver is useless against us!"

The distance wasn’t far to begin with, not to mention, anyone who entered the area within Mo Zhi’s Ghost Wall, everything they said or thought was not hidden from Mo Zhi.

Naturally, Ginsengfruit could also hear it. He covered his mouth, clearly stifling a laugh, with his eyes occasionally glancing at Mo Zhi.

His gaze clearly conveyed, ’You’re not that great either,’ ’Still a Ghost General, huh...’

Ever since Yun Ran ’forcefully bestowed’ her a large amount of merit, Mo Zhi, aside from occasionally emitting a bit of yin energy, looked lively and not like a ghost at all.

This Ghost Wall, in some sense, was considered the lowest version of a domain. Now someone was boasting inside her domain, making Mo Zhi particularly angry.

Most ghosts were very vengeful; even though she was a Ghost General now and had heaps of merit, essentially leaving the ranks of most ghosts,

Mo Zhi still retained some ghost characteristics, notably, being especially vindictive.

Ginsengfruit disparaged her, she felt embarrassed and dared not act out, so she could only vent her anger on others.

No rule stated that a ghost couldn’t be capricious.

Instantly, she blew ferociously once again toward those trapped individuals; if she couldn’t kill them, couldn’t she at least scare them?!

Except for those trapped inside the Ghost Wall, who were oblivious to their predicament and felt they were all normal,

others saw an inexplicably amusing scene.

The people who had formed a circle were now spinning round and round like wound-up toys, as if they were deaf and not responding to commands at all.

Wang Dao’s eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent, feeling humiliated by his subordinates, turning him into a laughingstock.

His entire life, he valued face the most, and anyone who dared to humiliate him would not live to see the next day’s sun.

"Take Ninth Young Master back, and handle the others!"

This "others" included Yun Ran in the car and those subordinates who had embarrassed him.

"Yes, Second Master!"

Immediately, five or six people stepped forward, proceeding to execute the order, even if the ones to be dealt with were their former companions.

It did not affect their current actions at all; after all, their hearts were colder than millennia-old ice.

However, as positive as their intentions were, when this second batch of people stepped into the Ghost Wall Mo Zhi had created, they too sensed something was wrong.

"Not good, how did you also end up trapped in the Ghost Wall, hurry and leave!"

The second batch of people: ...

There’s a line that expresses "to hell with it," and at a moment like this, they didn’t know if it was appropriate to say it. They had all come in, where were they supposed to go!!!

They thought back to when they were outside, watching those companions spinning around like fools, and now they were about to become one of those fools.

In fact, those trapped in the Ghost Wall thought they were just standing guard well, completely unaware they were going in circles.

This realization turned everyone’s faces grim; they were about to become Second Master’s discarded pawns.

"What should we do now, we’ve embarrassed Second Master, and he won’t tolerate us anymore!"

The second batch of people, initially filled with the intent to kill, now had to unite to stand a chance to survive!

Ginsengfruit sat in the car, narrating the entire time, relaying the conversations and actions of those trapped in the Ghost Wall to Yun Ran.

"Host, isn’t this what you said before, that unless the flame is on one’s own foot, it’s impossible to know how hot it is?"

Just as Ginsengfruit thought, more people would fall into the Ghost Wall trap, Wang Mian’s men arrived.

In this thick fog, human eyes could only see things at close range, but this had no effect on Ginsengfruit.

"Host, a group of people wearing custom-made combat suits has appeared, wow, each of them looks menacing..."

Yun Ran wasn’t interested in how they negotiated; she continued to rest with her eyes closed, as there were more important matters waiting for her later.

Wang Qianyu was being dragged, with the side of his face swollen from being slapped, a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, and his palm scraped.

From afar, it looked like he was being carried like a Little Chicken, completely devoid of any dignity.

Zhou Lao watched Wang Dao with a solemn expression, signaling the man behind him wearing gold-rimmed glasses to rescue Wang Qianyu.

"Second Master, you’ve gone too far!"

Wang Dao sneered at Zhou Lao; at that time, he also had the chance to become a power holder, but because he dealt with a group of people, Zhou Lao exposed him.

The clan elders of the Wang Family felt he was too ruthless and unfit to be a ruler, so he was kicked out. This grudge, he had always remembered!

"What do you think you are, just a servant of the Wang Family? Giving you a bit of face by calling you Zhou Lao, and you actually think you’re a big shot!"

Zhou Lao could sense the resentment and deep hatred emanating from Wang Dao, sighing inwardly but outwardly remaining unfazed.

"I’m taking Ninth Young Master with me."

"Don’t even think about it!"

The hatred in Wang Dao’s eyes was nearly tangible; if he could, he’d want to dismember Zhou Lao, who had ruined him, at this very moment.

"Then I’ll have to offend you."

With that, Zhou Lao pulled out a Token, somewhat worn, from his bosom.

"Second Master, this is the command of the Wang Family’s Punishment Hall, even the Family Head must comply unconditionally. If you’re dissatisfied, you can bring it up with the Clan Elders Hall."

Wang Dao had previously relied on his status to oppress Wang Qianyu, aiming to crush him completely while holding Yun Ran at bay.

He knew Wang Mian must be at the most critical point now, and if he missed the best opportunity for resuscitation, Wang Mian would surely die.

Unexpectedly, this damn Zhou Lao produced the command from the Punishment Hall, and if he didn’t comply, he would be punished at best and expelled from the Wang Family at worst.

Taking a few deep breaths, Wang Dao stepped aside; he would not give Wang Mian the chance to punish him.
