Why Did You Provoke Her? She Becomes the Ghost Queen After Death - chapter 74

Lying on the floor, Xiang Hui, who had already been weak to begin with-

A blood-gushing hole suddenly opened in her abdomen. In an instant, blood soaked through her clothes.

Xiang Hui stared at the light on the ceiling. In this moment, she could clearly feel her life rapidly draining away.

Su Xiaoxiao’s voice came from beside her ear.

The next second-

In Xiang Hui’s pupils, which were gradually losing their luster, a small face appeared in her line of sight.

Her vision was blurring; she could barely see that little face now.

But Xiang Hui knew-this was her Xiaoxiao.

Seeing that small face, the pain twisted across Xiang Hui’s features was instantly washed away, replaced by a gentle tenderness.

“Xiaoxiao… cough…” As soon as Xiang Hui opened her mouth, a mouthful of blood surged up from her throat, cutting off her words.

“Xiang Hui!” The look in Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes at this moment was no longer the usual icy chill, but panic.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t make sense of it. She didn’t understand.

Why?

Xiang Hui was human. Why had she saved her without even a moment’s hesitation?

They’d known each other for not even three days. Why would she go this far for her?

She wasn’t a Ghost; so why would she, like An Zhuzi, throw herself in the way to save her?

This was real death.

“Xiao… Xiao… don’t… cough…”

Another gout of blood spilled from Xiang Hui’s mouth.

In this moment, Xiang Hui had a thousand things she wanted to say to Su Xiao-

But right now, even making a sound was almost impossible for her.

In the end-

Xiang Hui lifted her hand, wanting to caress Su Xiaoxiao’s cheek.

But she could no longer withstand the tidal wave of exhaustion washing over her. Her eyes slowly slid shut, and her hand dropped limply to the floor.

Su Xiaoxiao’s pupils contracted sharply, her mind going completely blank.

At that moment, Lü Le came running over as well.

She clapped a hand over her mouth and dropped to the ground, staring in refusal at the reality before her-the Xiang Hui lying there with her eyes already closed.

“Yan Jie!”

A voice dripping with hatred to the bone burst from Su Xiaoxiao’s lips.

The next second-

A blast of yin wind erupted outward from Su Xiaoxiao as the center, exploding in all directions!

The violent gale sent the decorations around them rocking, on the verge of toppling!

Right after, wisps of black smoke, visible to the naked eye, began seeping out from the surface of Su Xiaoxiao’s body!

The air temperature plummeted straight to freezing!

In this moment, Su Xiaoxiao’s pitch-black Spiritual Soul was swelling madly.

Behind her, the Ghost King phantom was also howling in a frenzy!

The Ghost King phantom’s face twisted with madness, shrouded in ghostly energy as it roared and tore at the chains binding it!

Under the phantom’s violent rampage, the chilling ghostly energy turned into a source of power. One by one, the chains suddenly became wildly unstable!

As all the Ghosts watched with terrified faces-

Crack!

One of the chains imprisoning the Ghost King snapped under its furious struggle!!!

And with the breaking of that chain-

The wisps of black smoke swirling off Su Xiaoxiao’s body multiplied in an instant, surging severalfold!

Under the horrified gazes of the Ghosts-

Terrifying ghostly energy coiled around Su Xiaoxiao’s body.

A bone-deep, soul-chilling aura radiated from her, making every Ghost present feel their very soul shudder!

When the darkness fully erupted-

How could a mere mortal body hope to contain the overflowing darkness?!

While the viewers in Su Xiaoxiao’s Live Stream Room were staring at the scene in utter shock-

The next second.

The live stream went completely black.

“?!?! What the hell! The mosaic from before was bad enough! Why is it blacked out now?!”

“Shit! What’s happening to my girl! Why did it suddenly go black?!”

“What is the platform even doing?! Can you not be so useless?!”

“Stop yelling. It’s obvious the officials cut the feed on purpose so we wouldn’t see Xiaoxiao’s abnormal state!”

“Hiss! Xiaoxiao baby just now was so scary! What’s happening to Xiaoxiao baby?!”

Right now, the viewers in Su Xiaoxiao’s Live Stream Room, as well as those watching Lü Le and the other players, were all exploding in outrage.

They all demanded that the platform restore the feed.

But their demands never received an answer.
At that moment.

As the commotion around Su Xiaoxiao finally settled,

ghostly energy wrapped around her body as she floated in midair, and the Ghost King phantom behind her fully manifested.

In that instant, every Ghost present dropped to their knees.

They knelt with their heads bowed, like ancient ministers facing the sovereign above.

And it wasn’t only the third floor of Yellow Spring Restaurant.

Across the entire Yellow Spring Restaurant, not a single Ghost was still standing.

When the players saw this, they were all shocked-but they also hurriedly knelt down as well.

They didn’t know what was going on, but kneeling along with everyone else couldn’t possibly be wrong.

Yan Jie stared at Su Xiaoxiao suspended in the air, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She had only just become a Ghost, and her understanding of Ghosts was far from complete.

She didn’t know what was happening to Su Xiaoxiao.

She only knew that Su Xiaoxiao was making her feel a fear that clawed straight at her soul.

Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes were no longer icy blue-they had turned pure black, like an abyss.

As Su Xiaoxiao turned her head, those pitch-black eyes fixed on Yan Jie.

The moment Yan Jie met her gaze, she felt as if she would be obliterated in the next second-her soul scattered to nothing.

Hold it together! Hold it together!

It’s just Su Xiaoxiao-what am I afraid of?!

I’ve already died once!

At worst, I die again!

And it’s not like I’m guaranteed to be able to die even if I want to!

So what if Su Xiaoxiao is strong now? Can she really compare to a Vengeful Ghost?

Thinking that, the fear in Yan Jie’s heart eased a great deal.

“Let her go.” Su Xiaoxiao looked like a queen on high, her tone cold and absolute as she spoke to the Five-Eyed Fierce Ghost.

“Yes.” The Five-Eyed Fierce Ghost answered respectfully, pulling its hand back from Yan Jie’s head.

With the Five-Eyed Fierce Ghost no longer controlling her,

Yan Jie immediately got to her feet. She craned her neck, staring up at Su Xiaoxiao above, and burst into a harsh, piercing laugh.

“Hahahaha! Su Xiaoxiao! I don’t know what level you’re at right now, but did you really think I don’t have a trump card?!”

Yan Jie strode to her own corpse and took out a blood-red bead.

Without hesitation, she crushed it.

The only thing Yan Jie could pray for now was that-even after becoming a Ghost-she could still use the item that Vengeful Ghost had given her.

The next second, joy flashed across her face.

It worked!

In that moment, Yan Jie felt as if she finally had the confidence to go head-to-head with Su Xiaoxiao. She threw her head back and laughed at her.

“Su Xiaoxiao! Looks like today… you can’t kill me! Hahaha!”

As Yan Jie’s words fell,

a strange, blood-red silhouette slowly appeared.

At the same time, an oppressive murderous aura poured off that crimson figure.

Then, a Ghost in red robes appeared in the air-its face deathly pale, and atop its shoulders were two heads, one male and one female.

The moment that Ghost appeared overhead,

every kneeling Ghost present had the same four words rise in their mind.

Red-Clothed Vengeful Ghost!

Seeing the Red-Clothed Vengeful Ghost appear, Yan Jie’s face lit up with uncontrollable delight.

But in the very next second, that delight turned into thick, choking terror.

Because the Red-Clothed Vengeful Ghost, upon seeing all the Ghosts kneeling, mistakenly thought they were bowing to him.

He was just starting to feel pleased with himself when-

the next second,

he met a pair of incomparably black eyes… and saw the Ghost King phantom behind their owner.

?!!!!!

Hesitating for even one second would’ve been irresponsible to his own life!

The Red-Clothed Vengeful Ghost instantly dropped to the ground, and just like the other Ghosts present, neatly slammed both knees down.

At the same time, he screamed internally.

What the hell is happening here?!

Why is there a big boss like that here?!

Can someone tell me?!!! Urgent!!

(Author’s note: Xiang Hui won’t die-look forward to what happens to Yan Jie tomorrow.)
