At this moment, looking at the Ghost King before her, Ming Li's eyes were cold.
Meeting the gaze of the woman in front of him, the Ghost King frowned, put on a dignified demeanor, cleared his throat, and said, "I am the Ghost King. Why do you not show respect? Do you wish to be punished? If so, then this king shall punish you by making you his servant for five hundred years, after which you may reincarnate."
Five hundred years. That would be enough for him to absorb all the golden merit light on her body, and then he could obliterate her with a single finger…
Thinking of this, a greedy smile appeared on the Ghost King's face.
However, before the smile was even halfway formed, his entire spectral form was sent flying backward, his soul emitting a soul-piercing pain.
What happened?!
The Ghost King was utterly bewildered, not understanding what had occurred.
On the other side, Ming Li stood motionless, holding a large iron hammer, her gaze fixed coldly on the Ghost King who had been sent flying.
"Host, I've found out. Among those who eliminated the male protagonist, there is this Ghost King. It was he who colluded with the owner of another system to kill the male protagonist."
Upon hearing the system's voice in her mind, Ming Li, who was about to put away her great iron hammer, paused. She raised an eyebrow, cast a casual glance at the Ghost King struggling to get up not far away, and the next moment, a large iron hammer was smashed in his direction.
Seeing this, the Ghost King's eyes were filled with terror. He couldn't care about anything else and quickly used all his ghostly energy to resist the terrifying blow, then turned to flee.
Just as he opened the gate to the underworld and half of his body had stepped into it, the great iron hammer effortlessly shattered the Ghost King's ghostly energy, sending his entire spectral form flying once more.
Glancing at the Ghost King, who had been flung to an unknown corner, Ming Li calmly withdrew her gaze, put away the large iron hammer, yawned, and then flickered out of existence.
On the other side.
The severely injured Ghost King flew a great distance, smashing violently into a patch of greenery, on the verge of death.
If nothing unexpected happened, he was on his way out.
But, if nothing unexpected happened, then something unexpected would certainly happen.
Just as the Ghost King weakly felt his ghostly energy draining and his imminent demise, a shadow suddenly blocked his face, shielding him from the moonlight.
Immediately after, a gentle voice sounded, "Do you need help..."
Ghost King, "..."
-------------------------------------
The next day, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sky was clear and crisp.
In the old residential area.
Mo Lin Yu, lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. Recalling something, he quickly got out of bed, too anxious to even put on his shoes.
He arrived outside a room, hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered the courage to knock, "Sister, what do you want to eat later..."
After waiting for a long while, there was no sound from inside the room. He pushed the door open and took a look, only to find it empty…
Seeing this, Mo Lin Yu's heart sank halfway.
Could it be that everything last night was just a dream...
Suddenly, remembering something, Mo Lin Yu's hand quickly reached for his neck. After feeling the rope around his neck, he breathed a sigh of relief, took out the red gem, and looked at it with surprise.
It wasn't a dream! It really wasn't a dream! His sister was still here!
Thinking of the terrifying wounds he had seen on Ming Li last night, Mo Lin Yu's eyes darkened.
