Chapter 331 - 333: Disappearance
Chapter 331 - 333: Disappearance
The room, which had been fairly bright, abruptly darkened.
An ominous shadow slowly rose to its feet. The doors and windows began to let out unsettling creaks.
A cold sneer played on the Pitch Black Ghost’s lips, its eyes filled with venomous glee.
"You’re all going to die!!!"
But the outcome was clearly not what it had imagined. It didn’t see a figure scared witless, soiling itself in terror.
Instead, it saw a woman whose lips were slowly curling into an unsettling smile.
The Pitch Black Ghost froze. A terrible premonition washed over it.
Then, Su Nian swiftly raised her hand. With the speed and force of a lightning strike, she slapped the Pitch Black Ghost’s head clean to the side.
Su Nian wasn’t done. She continued slapping, a clean, one-handed torrent of blows. One after another, high and low, left and right, she delivered a relentless, star-chasing flurry of dozens of slaps. SMACK! SMACK! SMACK!
Viewers: !!!
[Holy shit! You’ve gotta hand it to the Heavenly Venerate, she’s badass!]
[I don’t really get it, but I am deeply shocked!]
[Host, you leave me speechless!]
[It’s not often you see someone use the word ’speechless’ like that.]
The Pitch Black Ghost: !!!???
Soon, Su Nian had slapped its head completely askew.
Su Nian nonchalantly rubbed her wrist.
She had used about fifty percent of her strength, and her slaps were so fast they created a breeze.
Once she was satisfied with the beating, she gently smoothed her hair, stood up, and didn’t forget to give her wrist a little rub.
The Pitch Black Ghost had been beaten half to death. Its head was knocked askew, and it couldn’t wrench it back into place no matter how hard it tried.
Beaten into a state of terror, the Pitch Black Ghost scrambled backward, frantically trying to wrench its head straight again.
It remembered how it had mentally prepared itself just yesterday to kill everyone, and now, all the Pitch Black Ghost wanted to do was tremble.
It suspected that if it didn’t flee now, this woman would slaughter it. ’My life is over!’
[Sigh, I’m already getting tired of watching Evil Ghosts flee.]
[In the face of the commenter above’s cold words and dismissive attitude, I am shattered! I’m falling to pieces! The world itself is at fault! How could you say such a thing about my beloved host?!]
[Hahahaha, is the drama queen possessing you, commenter above?!]
Putting aside Su Nian’s impressive display, the girl standing at the front felt an inexplicable chill.
She had already found it strange when Su Nian told her to turn around.
After turning, she heard that voice filled with malice, and her body instantly froze stiff.
She didn’t know what was happening behind her, only that she could hear a ceaseless series of smacks.
She tried to sneak a cautious peek, but all she could see were the afterimages of a hand.
She didn’t know what was going on, but in that moment, she chose to continue trusting the host.
Trembling, she didn’t dare to look back. But just then, she felt a chill pass right by her.
’Don’t tell me... the host lost?!’
"You just wait!"
The sinister, raspy voice came from right beside her.
This chill was definitely not something that could be artificially created.
The girl froze, her body wracked with uncontrollable shivers. She knew the ghost was now standing right next to her.
Her mouth fell open, but she didn’t have an ounce of courage to look over.
Su Nian watched the Pitch Black Ghost dispassionately. On its stiff, ink-black face, she could barely make out the venomous, evil smile hanging on its lips.
Su Nian calmly sat back down in her chair. As the Pitch Black Ghost glared at her, she didn’t forget to add a taunt.
"By the way, you have a strong burnt smell."
[And thus, a world where only the Burnt Ghost gets insulted is achieved.]
[Burnt Ghost: Meeting you was the worst thing that ever happened to me!]
[I’m just sayin’, our host has a certain... unique talent.]
[If you know how to talk, then please, say more.]
[I’m laughing so hard I’m banging on a wooden fish. There goes one of my merit points.]
[That statement is absurd, yet somehow completely reasonable.]
[I mean, just look at it. Pitch-black all over. It must be burnt to a crisp, so of course it has a built-in burnt smell.]
The Pitch Black Ghost’s venomous declaration was cut short by Su Nian’s single sentence before it could even finish.
Rage instantly flared in its eyes.
’It seethed with hatred. How dare that bitch say that to it again.’
But Su Nian sat down as if nothing was wrong, even calling out to the girl who was still standing there, trembling.
"You should sit too. What are you standing there for?"
The girl froze. She wasn’t even sure if Su Nian was a human or a ghost, and she was naturally timid.
But once she decided to trust someone, she was determined to do so wholeheartedly. So, upon hearing Su Nian’s words...
...she sat down without a word, though she kept her eyes averted the entire time, not daring to look at the thing across from her.
The Pitch Black Ghost was seething. It wanted to charge forward and fight, but then it remembered the way she’d beaten it down.
’Forget it, forget it. I can’t afford to provoke her, but surely I can hide from her?’
’I can just fight her tomorrow!’
Filled with resentment, and with great expectations and ambitions for the morrow, it immediately decided to leave.
Su Nian chuckled softly. A dazzling light bloomed from her body as she pinched a sheet of talisman paper between her fingertips.
Miraculously, though Su Nian hadn’t lit it...
...the talisman ignited on its own, with no external flame. Once the yellow talisman had burned to ashes...
...some dark grey ash was left over. It fell to the floor without leaving the slightest stain on Su Nian’s fair, slender fingers.
The girl’s eyes were wide, not wanting to miss a moment. As a loyal fan of Su Nian, she naturally knew just how magical her yellow talismans were.
She straightened her posture, respectfully staring at the spot where the talisman paper in Su Nian’s hand had just been, then fixed her gaze on the wisp of smoke it had become.
The talisman’s smoke drifted ethereally, swaying gently as it rose.
At the same time, a tremendous sense of crisis instantly enveloped the Pitch Black Ghost.
It wanted to run, to get out. Even if there was sunlight outside, it didn’t care. It had to escape this place.
This strange woman was definitely going to kill it. But before it could even take a step, an unknown force pulled it back.
Its entire body froze as if under a curse, unable to move a muscle.
"Trying to run? Believe me, I’ll rip your legs right off."
"Or how about I tie those two legs of yours into a knot? Then you wouldn’t be able to run even if you wanted to."
Su Nian’s voice was light and airy, carrying a tone of utter nonchalance.
The Pitch Black Ghost froze instantly. It used every ounce of its strength to twist its head around and look at Su Nian.
Although it couldn’t see her face, the look in her eyes was clearly eager, as if she couldn’t wait to try.
’She’s a complete lunatic! If she catches me, I’m done for!’ The Pitch Black Ghost struggled frantically, desperate to escape the room.
At that moment, Su Nian lowered her eyes, her heart as still as water. With a light flick of her finger, a clear note rang out, transforming into an invisible force that pierced through the Pitch Black Ghost.
And as the smoke in the air swirled around the Evil Ghost’s body, the ghost itself began to gradually disperse.
From the moment she first saw this Evil Ghost, Su Nian had already calculated its birth chart in her head. It had indeed lived a very unhappy life.
But after death, it had lived up to the name "Evil Ghost" to the very end. To meet such a fate today was no injustice.
