The air was thick with ghostly energy, and beneath the black cloak, a terrifying face emerged. It looked as if it had been slashed by knives countless times, with folds resembling writhing earthworms, leaving an unforgettable impression. Even more horrifying were the eyes of the Lord of the Manor—gray-brown orbs that resembled those of a venomous snake or a giant crocodile, devoid of any compassion or emotion, fixated on Ye Yang and Ding Xiang as if they were prey.
"It is you two who have trespassed into my North Sea Ghost Realm, thinking you can act recklessly here?"
The Lord of the Manor held a skeletal spear, its Spear Blade shimmering with eerie Starlit True Qi. The strands of True Qi coiled above like venomous snakes, distinctly different from that of Ye Yang and the others.
Ding Xiang's face turned a shade of liver color, trembling all over. "Is this... is this the Yama King from Yellow Springs Road? Oh my god, Ye Shao Xia, we are doomed!"
"Not necessarily!"
Ye Yang raised his hand and unsheathed the Azure Soul Sword with a clang. As he infused it with True Qi, the sword blazed red-hot. After a day of travel, Ye Yang had recovered most of his True Qi and had reached at least the Starry Sky Sixth Level. If he activated Fire God Transformation, even if his opponent was a Starry Sky Seventh Level expert, Ye Yang would not be afraid!
With the sword drawn and aimed at the Lord of the Manor, Ye Yang laughed. "That Ghost Messenger relies on his power to bully countless souls and is said to have imprisoned over ten thousand female Souls. You actually believe such a lecherous scoundrel? It seems you, Lord of the Manor, are in cahoots with him. I thought the governance in our Daoist realm was poor, but this Ghost Realm is even more debauched. Hmph! Since that's the case, I shall act on behalf of justice today and eliminate you, Lord of the Manor!"
"Arrogant!"
The Lord of the Manor suddenly threw back his head and laughed heartily while brandishing his spear like a shield. "A mere brat from the human realm dares to run wild in my Hell of the Ghost Realm? You should take a good look at your own worth! Come if you dare; today I will show you the might of practitioners in Hell of the Ghost Realm!"
...
"Smack!"
Ye Yang stopped speaking and leaped into action with one foot planted firmly on the ground. He gathered fifty percent of his strength as golden runes surged up his right arm, entering the first stage of Fire God Transformation. The first move of Fire God’s Three Styles—Blazing Inferno—erupted forth as the Azure Soul Sword transformed into thousands of sword lights that surged forward with unstoppable force!
Faced with Ye Yang's probing strike, the Lord of the Manor reacted as if facing a great enemy. He raised his spear high and swung it defensively while shouting, "Ghost Shadow Shield!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang..."
In a flurry of Goldstone clashes, Ye Yang's Blazing Inferno crashed against the Ghost Shadow Shield, sending sparks flying and creating swirling winds. The aura of a Starry Sky Expert surged around them, forcing a group of Ghost Soldiers to retreat. Ding Xiang was blown back against a wall by the powerful gusts and could only shield her eyes with her hands while struggling to watch.
The Ghost Messenger stood there in shock, covering his head and moaning softly, "Damn it! I didn't expect this kid to be so formidable. Lord of the Manor, you must not lose!"
Several Ghost Soldiers glared at each other angrily and shouted, "Shut your filthy mouth! The Lord of the Manor is the top expert in Afterlife Hall; how could he possibly lose? This kid is just a cultivator from the human realm—young and inexperienced! What makes him think he can defeat the Lord of the Manor? I bet he's just pretending to be weak to find an opportunity for a fatal strike!"
The Ghost Messenger nodded repeatedly. "What you all say is absolutely right..."
On the other side, Ye Yang and the Lord of the Manor suddenly separated.
"Bang!"
The fiery red boots stomped on the ground, and the Lord of the Manor's body slid rapidly backward, dragging a long trench on the surface. The spear in his hand was scorching hot, and he was panting heavily, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. A portion of his chest armor had actually caved in, forming a fist-sized dent, a result of Ye Yang's punch.
"This kid..."
The Lord of the Manor shouted angrily, and the spear in his hand once again surged with the unique Starlit True Qi of the Soul.
Ye Yang observed closely and understood very well that this Starry Sky Expert from the Ghost Realm attracted Starlight Power through the starry sky of the Ghost Realm. This Starlight Power was insidious and pervasive; however, as long as Absolute Power surpassed it, Ye Yang's physique would remain unaffected.
...
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
The blazing and strange True Qi soared, swirling around a blood-red beastly energy on the spear held by the Lord of the Manor. He laughed maniacally, "Kid, can you withstand my Vengeful Spirit roar? If not, you will immediately turn into a soul and pass on!"
A mighty strike came forth, but Ye Yang squinted his deep-set eyes and chuckled lightly. He had already discerned that this attack's power was equivalent to that of a Starry Sky Level Five Peak. This was probably the Lord of the Manor's strongest power. The Afterlife Hall was essentially the first great gate of Hell in the Ghost Realm; how strong could a gatekeeper be? Starry Sky Level Five was already his utmost strength, which for Ye Yang at this moment was merely child's play!
"Boom!"
Star Flame surged up along the blade, and Ye Yang suddenly entered the second realm of Fire God Transformation. The Azure Soul Sword also unleashed its strongest single-target attack, Purgatory Flame Blade. A mighty Flame Sword slashed out with full force; he stomped down hard on the ground and shot forward like an arrow, meeting the Lord of the Manor's Vengeful Spirit roar head-on.
"Bang!"
With a tremendous sound, it felt as if the entire Afterlife Hall was about to shatter. A powerful cyclone swept across the bones scattered on the ground, cold winds howling through this Carefree Realm.
In this clash of strength, Ye Yang stood firm like a deity. The Azure Soul Sword emitted a massive rebound force that directly sent the Lord of the Manor flying. His body hit against the Afterlife Hall with a thunderous crash, smashing through walls and rolling nearly a hundred meters before collapsing amidst a pile of rubble.
"Ahhh..."
Screams echoed; while the Lord of the Manor was not dead, he was close to it.
A group of Ghost Soldiers, along with dozens of Ghost Messengers, were stunned, looking at each other in disbelief, murmuring, "How could this be? How could the Lord of the Manor be defeated? Who is this kid, and how could he achieve this? Is he perhaps a god of Heavenly Kill?"
Ding Xiang crawled out from a pile of rubble, filled with excitement: "Ha, ha... Ye Shao Xia is indeed formidable; he really defeated that demon!"
In the Afterlife Hall, amidst the ruins, the Lord of the Manor slowly stood up, leaning on his spear, his eyes fiercely fixed on Ye Yang: "This kid... cannot be defeated by one person alone. Someone, summon the Lantern Wraiths! Summon all the strong ones within the Afterlife Hall! Together, tear this kid to shreds!"
"Oh, Lantern Wraiths?"
Ye Yang raised an eyebrow in surprise: "Lantern Wraiths? What are those?"
Just as he was pondering this, suddenly, distant lights appeared in the night. On Yellow Springs Road, hunched figures of Vengeful Spirits draped in green robes held green lanterns that emitted a ghastly glow.
One Lantern Wraith lifted its cloak, revealing a face without eyes, and suddenly grinned: "You bold little brat, how dare you provoke the Lord of the Manor? You're asking for death!"
