When 'God' Decides To Start Over

Chapter 670 - 274: The Impossible Appearance_3

"Black Rider!" Li Xiu looked at this zombie-like, ashen face, his heart filled with indescribable shock.

This face was the face of the Black Rider. He had just seen it not long ago, and considering how brutally the Black Rider died back then, how could he have forgotten so quickly?

Undoubtedly, this face belonged to the Black Rider.

"What’s going on! Why has the Black Rider turned into the Black Death Demon... Wasn’t he already smashed to death by that Cloaked Man? What in the world is happening?" The questions in Li Xiu’s heart were almost overflowing.

"Stop standing here dazed, real trouble is coming." A’Gui ran over and pulled Li Xiu away.

Li Xiu shook off A’Gui’s hand, turned around to retrieve the body of little Bu’Er.

However, as soon as he turned, Li Xiu was dumbfounded—the body of little Bu’Er was floating on its own.

The previously twisted neck had risen, the head twisting bizarrely. The eyes, now open, were filled with purple pupils, the whites nowhere to be seen, indescribably eerie.

Li Xiu immediately understood that the major trouble A’Gui mentioned was little Bu’Er.

Little Bu’Er floated in the air, neck twisting oddly, eyes hardly focusing.

"Follow me." A’Gui pulled Li Xiu again, quickly rushing to the grave mound where they had hidden before.

"Get up here," A’Gui jumped to the top of the grave mound, addressing Li Xiu.

Li Xiu followed suit, and they stood side by side on the grave mound.

"If you don’t want to die, absolutely don’t go down. Otherwise, you’re dead for sure," A’Gui said, staring at the floating, unfocused little Bu’Er.

"What is going on?" Li Xiu asked A’Gui, staring intently.

He had too many questions. Why was the body of the deceased little Bu’Er here, why had it turned this way, why was the deceased Black Rider here and had transformed into the Black Death Demon? It was all bizarre and strange beyond belief.

"You killed the ghost-eating demon spirit, and this evil ghost is resurrecting," A’Gui said solemnly. "Now we have only two paths: Stand here on the grave mound and wait to die, or escape after she has killed all living things in Black Death City, before we die."

"Is there no way to survive?" Li Xiu looked at the floating little Bu’Er, whose eyes were finally focusing, filled with purple pupils, staring in their direction.

"No, I am merely a worthless wandering ghost, and you are merely a Super Spirit. Though your Super Spirit is surprising, capable of killing top-tier Light Base demon spirits, compared to that evil ghost, you’re too weak, probably unable to withstand even one strike from her," A’Gui remarked.

"Who exactly are you? Don’t tell me you’re just a forgetful wandering ghost. If you forgot everything, how do you know all this?" Li Xiu pressed A’Gui.

"Sigh, does who I am matter? Surviving is the priority now," A’Gui sighed. "You’re not entirely without hope. If you can cross Black Death City to the Black Sea before she kills all living things in Black Death City, you might have a slim chance."

"But with that evil ghost’s power, as soon as we leave this grave mound, she could kill you in an instant. So you can only gamble; gamble that while crossing Black Death City, she won’t notice you."

"Aren’t you going?" Li Xiu frowned.

"If I leave here, I’ll die," A’Gui sighed.

As they talked, little Bu’Er’s neck twisted constantly, and the snapped bones seemed to reconnect, appearing much more normal.

Suddenly, little Bu’Er tilted her head back and let out a loud shriek, a ghostly wail that made it impossible for Li Xiu to associate her with the adorable little girl from City of Love.

With little Bu’Er’s scream, her entire body was enveloped in purple flames. The grave mounds all ignited with purple flames, burning away the grass, the mounds looking like piles of purple bonfire.

Only the grave mound beneath Li Xiu and A’Gui’s feet didn’t emit purple flames, a sight that left Li Xiu somewhat astonished.

Such terrifying flames, and they continued to be released unceasingly—this already exceeded what the Light Base level could achieve.

This corpse-like creature, little Bu’Er, was probably at least at the Spirit Forging Level.

"This is really freaking me out," Li Xiu sighed helplessly.

Little Bu’Er floated like a ghost in the air, drifting towards the two of them, her eyes fixed on the grave mound.

As she floated closer to the top of the grave mound, a shriek echoed out as if she had hit an invisible electric net. White electric snakes flickered around her, throwing her back.

However, the white electric snakes quickly vanished, and little Bu’Er floated back. This time she didn’t charge directly at the mound but hovered around it, her purple flames blazing continuously.

"Why is this grave mound so special?" Li Xiu asked A’Gui.

"I don’t know either. This grave in the graveyard isn’t the largest, nor the smallest, plain and unremarkable. However, it’s the only place in the graveyard that’s safe—no demon spirit or evil ghost can get close to it," A’Gui explained.

"Could it be something buried in this grave that can restrain her? If we dig it out, would we have a chance to suppress her?" Li Xiu speculated, examining the grave mound beneath his feet.

"What if there’s a more terrifying evil ghost below?" A’Gui countered.

Li Xiu also knew this was more likely, and he temporarily abandoned the thought.

"Let’s wait and see. Based on past experience, she should head to Black Death City soon. Before she kills all living beings in Undying City, you still have a chance to escape," A’Gui said.

A’Gui clearly didn’t know Li Xiu was from Earth, assuming he was from the Demon Kingdom too.

In fact, Li Xiu just needed to return inside the city gates, reach the plaza, extinguish the Longevity Lamp, and he could leave here.

But Jani and those guards were still in Black Death City. If that evil ghost-like little Bu’Er entered the city first, they’d be doomed.

Li Xiu wouldn’t sacrifice his life to save them, but even if he didn’t plan for them, would he be discovered by little Bu’Er after entering the city? Not reaching the plaza before being discovered by little Bu’Er would leave Li Xiu wondering if he could make it there alive.

"What about you?" Li Xiu asked A’Gui, watching him. He didn’t believe A’Gui would truly stay here to die.

"I am just a lonely wandering ghost. If you leave, she won’t come back to kill me," A’Gui claimed, but his expression was off as he watched the nearby little Bu’Er. "Strange, based on past experience, she should have gone to Black Death City. Why would she stay here to guard us?"
