Chapter 855: Chapter 822: The Appearance of Leuk Qingqing

At this moment, Yang Jian was unable to move, his body fully commandeered by Ghost Shadow, which was invading his consciousness, even though it was protected by the Eight-Tone Music Box.

A different kind of confrontation was ongoing.

But this confrontation occurred at the most inopportune time.

For now, the menacing ghost from room 301 appeared right beside him.

The ghost looked like an eerie old man with a translucent body in shades of black and white.

This old man did nothing to Yang Jian, merely standing still after approaching, with a numb gaze staring rigidly.

Consequently, Yang Jian’s body seemed to be peeling away from this world, swiftly losing its color.

Conversely.

The old man’s body became more and more substantial, with the black and white fading away, regaining the skin tone of a normal human, even the clothes took on some of their antique hues.

Yang Jian felt neither pain nor anything abnormal.

It seemed as if his own disappearance was a trivial and commonplace event.

However, his experience fighting the paranormal told him that he was being erased from this world by the ghast, while after erasing him, the ghost intended to replace his existence, fully materializing in this world, becoming a ghost of this world, considering the one before him was merely a byproduct left behind when Yang Jian triggered the Firewood Knife as a medium.

Strictly speaking, it was not a truly formidable ghost, but merely a force of Supernatural Power.

But if Yang Jian were truly erased.

The ghost from the past, successfully descending into the present world, would then be real.

“My previous caution and worry were justified; the ghost in room 301 is indeed terrifying. My body is harnessed by Ghost Shadow, but I still can’t escape the fate of being erased,” Yang Jian watched helplessly as his legs quickly vanished.

After his legs disappeared, the shadows remained.

Without a body, the shadow still existed.

This phenomenon, although strange, was not hard to comprehend.

Because Yang Jian’s shadow was Ghost Shadow, and while the terrifying ghost from room 301 could erase Yang Jian’s body, it couldn’t erase another ghost.

Ghosts cannot be killed.

Even though Ghost Shadow was at an absolute disadvantage at the moment, it still wouldn’t be annihilated.

“I must find a way out of this predicament; otherwise, I will definitely be killed by the ghost before me.” Yang Jian was still immobile, sweating coldly with anxiety, yet his body had no reaction.

The control of Ghost Shadow persisted.

“Move, move now.”

He was desperate at this moment, managing to control one hand, which was still not very flexible. Although it took time to adjust, the attack from the ghast offered no such opportunity.

More and more parts of him were disappearing.

It had extended from his legs upwards, and now it had reached his knees.

The rest of his body was affected too, continuously fading in color.

Soon, Yang Jian would be peeled from this world.

Incredibly.

After Yang Jian’s legs were stripped away, the ghost’s legs began to emerge, becoming increasingly real, although its upper body was still in a ghostly state.

It seemed.

The ghost had to completely erase him to reclaim a complete body.

Yang Jian grew even more anxious, watching his trembling arms as he desperately tried to reach for something nearby.

A rust-covered Coffin Nail.

The Coffin Nail he had been holding in his hand had slipped away during the previous violent struggle, lying close by, within reach.

But that small distance to reach out and grab it proved to be very difficult.

Because whenever he moved, his arm would intermittently lose control, making it hard to manage.

The ghost’s influence over Yang Jian continued.

At this moment, the disappearing area had moved past the knee, reaching the thigh.

It was soon going to reach the waist.

Further up, if the arms were erased, it would be much harder for Yang Jian to turn the situation around.

“Coffin Nail, the captain wants to grab the Coffin Nail.”

But at that moment, Li Yang, who had been closely observing the situation from not too far away, noticed this detail. He saw Yang Jian’s hand moving, and the direction of the movement was towards the Coffin Nail left beside him.

Clearly.

Yang Jian needed that object at this moment.

However, what sent chills down one’s spine was that the horrifying ghost stood very close by, staring fixedly at him.

If anyone else gets close, they might just drop dead in an instant.

Li Yang’s body was tense, and he was breaking out in cold sweat; gritting his teeth, he dashed out.

Even at the risk of his own life, he had to break this equilibrium.

Otherwise, everyone here would die.

“You… be careful,” Yang Xiaohua saw Li Yang rushing out, paused for a moment, then quickly understood his intention, it seemed he couldn’t help but go to support Yang Jian.

As an ordinary person, that was all she could remind him.

In fact, she could also slip away.

But Yang Xiaohua didn’t do so because she understood deeply, if she fled now, it would also be a dead end; not only would the delivery of the message fail, but she would also lose the protection of Yang Jian and completely lose the last sliver of hope for survival.

“Don’t get close, you’ll die before you even reach that ghost.”

However, just at that moment, a familiar voice suddenly echoed in the silent Mingyue Community.

Unexpectedly, a woman in a red cheongsam blocked Li Yang’s path.

That was… Leuk Qingqing.

Leuk Qingqing’s state was not right; her face was expressionless and numb, like a puppet on strings, devoid of any living person’s aura.

“Is it you?” Li Yang was startled and quickly stopped in his tracks, watching Leuk Qingqing with great vigilance and hostility.

“You stay, I’ll go.”

Leuk Qingqing’s mouth moved stiffly as she spoke these words and turned to walk towards Yang Jian’s position.

Li Yang was filled with confusion and suspicion, unsure whether this Leuk Qingqing truly wanted to help or was trying to prevent him from getting closer.

This person had vanished in room 301 for a period.

Appearing now, it was uncertain whether she was controlling the ghost or being controlled by it; in any case, it was extremely dangerous.

“Follow her.”

Li Yang didn’t trust Leuk Qingqing, and he still swiftly followed after her.

“If you go any further, you’ll die,” Leuk Qingqing said, walking ahead and looking back at Li Yang.

At this time, Li Yang noticed that the high heels Leuk Qingqing was wearing were fading in color, and they were disappearing rapidly; at the same time, her pair of legs was vanishing, as if being erased.

But strangely, even without legs, Leuk Qingqing kept walking, maintaining her walking posture as she approached Yang Jian and the fierce ghost.

No, that’s not right.

The erasure stopped.

Li Yang saw that Yang Jian’s entire body seemed faded, as if it was being stripped away, but Leuk Qingqing only had her feet affected; the rest of her body was intact, with no signs of fading.

Instead, the cheongsam she was wearing became even more vivid,

As crimson as fresh blood.

Even thicker than the red light emitted by Yang Jian’s Ghost Domain.

That red seemed as though it was going to drip down.

“The cheongsam is an object with supernatural power,” Li Yang, no matter how slow to catch on, should have realized by now.

If not for the cheongsam, Leuk Qingqing certainly couldn’t resist the influence of the ghost’s power.

At this thought.

He stopped in his tracks.

Because Leuk Qingqing was right, if he got close, he would soon die, unable to return; not only would he die, but the ghost within his body would also revive, and the situation would directly worsen to an uncontrollable extent.

At that moment, Leuk Qingqing bent down, picked up a Coffin Nail from the ground, and placed it in Yang Jian’s hands.

She chose to help Yang Jian.

Yang Jian saw this scene, and he couldn’t say anything nor do anything; he just watched everything happen.

“Leuk Qingqing, huh? She has mastered the ghost?”

Grasping the cold Coffin Nail, Yang Jian’s standoffish state was immediately broken.

Because the next moment.

He hammered the Coffin Nail into the ground.

Underneath was… the Ghost Shadow.

Yes.

At this moment, Yang Jian chose to use the Coffin Nail to suppress the Ghost Shadow, letting it temporarily fall into silence.

The uncontrollable presence of the Ghost Shadow disappeared instantly.
