"Does the young master want it or not?" The stall owner looked up at Yu Daochen, a chilling smile on his pale face.
Yu Daochen dropped the bamboo dragonfly in his hand and stood up, looking at the pedestrians around him.
He saw that the pedestrians around him were all looking at Yu Daochen, their pale faces showing eerie smiles.
Ghost Street!
Yu Daochen instinctively reached for his pocket, only to realize he hadn't brought any white cloth with him.
Ghost Street had a rule: anyone entering Ghost Street had to tie a white cloth around their arm as a sign of respect.
Every Ghost Street was guarded by a ghost or a demon, preventing the street from falling into chaos. They held no official titles but had a unified designation: Lord Qianhuang.
Everyone who entered Ghost Street had to tie a white cloth around their arm to show respect to Lord Qianhuang. Without it, it could be considered a provocation to Lord Qianhuang, and all the ghosts on Ghost Street could deal with him as they pleased.
Just as Yu Daochen was about to turn back, he was blocked by several ghosts.
Yu Daochen raised his hand into a fist and said, "Esteemed sirs, I am not provoking Lord Qianhuang. I merely stumbled into Ghost Street unintentionally. I hope you will be understanding."
"Ghost Street is not a place you can enter and leave as you please," a ghost shouted among the others.
Yu Daochen frowned. Dealing with these minor ghosts was not a problem, but Ghost Street harbored hidden dragons and crouching tigers; who knew what powerful beings lurked within.
"It was indeed an unintentional act. I hope you will be understanding," Yu Daochen said again, clenching his fist.
In the crowd of ghosts, some showed greed in their eyes. More and more ghosts surrounded Yu Daochen.
"Forgive me."
As soon as Yu Daochen finished speaking, a ball of golden spiritual energy condensed in his palm, and he directly struck the ghosts blocking his path.
More and more ghosts were gathering. If he didn't act now, he would be surrounded and overwhelmed.
Seeing this, some ghosts quickly dodged. Yu Daochen's palm strike missed, and he immediately ran towards the outside.
Just as he was about to escape, a long-handled saber swung towards Yu Daochen.
Yu Daochen's expression changed. He stepped forward and retreated, dodging the incoming blade.
*Bang*
The blade of the long-handled saber struck the ground heavily, sinking into it.
A burly ghost, over two meters tall, gripped the saber's handle and swung horizontally at Yu Daochen again.
Yu Daochen placed one hand on the ground and muttered, "Shuikan Jing."
As Yu Daochen finished speaking, a faint ripple of water emerged beneath his feet, enveloping him.
*Crack*
The saber blade struck the water ripple shield, and countless cracks spread across the entire shield.
The fierce ghost struck again, and the shield shattered directly. Yu Daochen was repelled several meters.
Yu Daochen steadied himself and looked at the fierce ghost in front of him, his expression becoming serious.
Most ghosts killed by illusion, but a very small number of ghosts possessed a corpse, using Yin energy to enhance the corpse's strength and defense. Although this method was slow, its strength and defense were incredibly formidable.
To deal with such ghosts, one could only rely on brute force and a killing blow with a spell.
The fierce ghost gripped the saber's handle and charged at Yu Daochen again. Just as Yu Daochen was about to end the battle with his Reincarnation Blood Tears, a long saber flew out and landed in front of Yu Daochen.
Yu Daochen and the ghosts all turned to look. They saw a figure in a black jacket leaning against the wall, the hood pulled low, obscuring their face.
The fierce ghost charged closer and closer. Yu Daochen pulled the saber stuck in the ground and met the charge.
Yu Daochen raised his saber and chopped downwards, while the fierce ghost swung horizontally.
*Bang*
The two weapons collided, emitting a crisp sound.
Yu Daochen's arm went numb from the impact, but a wicked smile appeared on his face. This force was substantial enough.
Both retreated simultaneously. The fierce ghost gripped the saber's handle and continued to slash at Yu Daochen.
Yu Daochen did not falter, gripping his long saber and slashing back.
Only the crisp sound of cold weapons clashing could be heard in the air.
Sparks flew as blades met blades.
After a few exchanges, Yu Daochen showed no signs of stopping; instead, he grew more courageous.
With another fierce downward strike, the fierce ghost raised its saber to block the descending long saber.
*Crack*
Just as Yu Daochen struck down, the tip of the blade snapped.
Yu Daochen was stunned for a moment. Accustomed to the offensive style of the Kanglong Jian, he hadn't expected the blade to break.
The fierce ghost seized the opportunity, swinging its long-handled saber at Yu Daochen.
Yu Daochen quickly raised his saber to block.
The blade of the long-handled saber struck the long saber, and Yu Daochen was directly repelled.
