Chapter 671 - 275: Uncle
Bang!
Little Bu’Er tried once more to charge at the gravesite where Li Xiu and his companion were, but was again repelled, white electric light flashing across her body incessantly.
Time and again, Little Bu’Er crashed frantically, the purple flames on her body colliding fiercely with the white electric light, igniting bursts of explosive light.
"Strange, what’s going on? It’s illogical, why isn’t she heading to Black Death City? It shouldn’t be like this." Ghost stared at the frantically charging Little Bu’Er, bewildered.
"What do you mean by before? Did something like this happen before too?" Li Xiu fixed his gaze on Ghost and questioned.
Ghost replied, "It did happen before, although I haven’t seen it myself. I’ve only heard about it."
"Heard? Who did you hear it from?" Li Xiu frowned secretly.
"A reckless spirit that was here before." Ghost murmured.
"You aren’t going to tell me you’re a professional Tomb Guardian, are you?" Li Xiu construed from Ghost’s words that even this spirit had a legacy, making it less simple than just one person.
"Ahem, can’t exactly call it a legacy, just some idle people who feel life isn’t interesting enough and choose to lie flat here instead..." Ghost clearly didn’t want to elaborate.
"What should we do now?" Li Xiu asked as he looked at Ghost.
"Since soft methods don’t work, we’ll have to opt for hard ones." Ghost said as he lifted the bottle in his hand.
"Is that bottle a contract?" Li Xiu was somewhat startled as he eyed the black bottle in Ghost’s hand.
Originally thought to be just a plain black glass bottle, but at this moment, that black glass bottle began to shine brightly, releasing wisps of ghost-like black light from its mouth.
The ghost-like black light intertwined, clinging to the bottle, transforming it into a bizarre black weapon exuding a sci-fi atmosphere.
Although the black weapon looked cool, like a flamethrower or a laser gun, to Li Xiu it seemed more like a water gun, with the bottle serving as the water reservoir.
Ghost, who looked like a beggar, was also enveloped in black light, forming into black armor around his body, making him appear like a bearded Terminator warrior.
"Stay here, don’t move, I’ll drive her away." With that, Ghost stepped out and jumped off the gravesite, firing directly at Little Bu’Er with the gun formed from the bottle.
Li Xiu’s guess proved correct, it was indeed a water gun; what sprayed from the gun wasn’t bullets, but sheets of liquid black light.
As the liquid black light landed on Little Bu’Er, it immediately extinguished the purple flames on her body, the purple flames seemed to encounter an extinguisher, and after several sprays, the purple flames on Bu’Er were nearly snuffed out.
Little Bu’Er let out cries of pain, retreating repeatedly as she was sprayed by the liquid black light.
"Go to where you belong." Ghost coldly shouted as he held up the gun aimed at Little Bu’Er.
Suddenly, Little Bu’Er emitted a sharp scream, the purple flames on her body instantly reignited, burning even fiercer.
It was initially just purple flames above the gravesite, but now they rapidly spread, enveloping the entire cemetery.
Ghost found purple flames at his feet too, his black light armor ignited by the purple flames, causing him to frantically spray black liquid light all around himself, but extinguishing this spot only for another to ignite.
Facing the raging flames, Ghost’s gun seemed truly like a water gun, the black liquid light merely a drop in the ocean, unable to make a significant impact.
Little Bu’Er suspended in mid-air, at some point holding a wooden revolver, the barrel aimed directly at Ghost, prompting him to turn and flee.
Bang!
The revolver cracked a shot, a light bullet hit Ghost squarely on the rear, causing him to let out a tragic scream as he toppled over, engulfed wholly by purple flames.
Ghost ignored the purple flames covering his body, desperately rushed back to the gravesite, spraying black liquid light all over himself, extinguishing the purple flames. His already ragged clothes now burnt beyond recognition.
His beard and hair singed, his face burnt purple.
Li Xiu stared dumbfounded at Ghost, surprised at how he returned so swiftly, hardly in the impressive manner he had departed.
"Cough, cough, that thing’s gone mad..." Ghost grimaced in pain.
"Any other tricks up your sleeve?" Li Xiu asked.
"No more, this is absurd. My Netherworld-Annihilating Spear should’ve severely wounded her, ideally she would’ve left. There’s no need for her to struggle to the death with me, and yet she fuels herself with fire, determined to fight me till the end, which is troubling..." Watching the surging purple flames, Ghost’s expression turned grim.
The entire cemetery transformed into a purple flame Purgatory; apart from the gravesite they stood on, blazing purple flames were everywhere. The purple flames spread toward the gravesite, the purple light and white electricity intertwined, producing crackling sounds.
Little Bu’Er within the purple flames stared intently at them, resolute in her endeavor to engage them fiercely.
Bang, bang!
Little Bu’Er’s gun fired light bullet after light bullet, each bullet causing the surrounding electric light to sparkle.
Li Xiu watched Little Bu’Er, suddenly descending towards the base of the gravesite.
"What are you trying to do?" Ghost asked in shock.
"Problems need solving." Li Xiu already stood at the junction of white light and purple flames, meeting Bu’Er’s gaze as he spoke.
