Demon King's Repayment - chapter 226

A man staggered down the dimly lit street. He felt that he was probably drunk, his head was dizzy, his legs were weak, and the scenery on the street was shadowy. He couldn’t remember where his home was or how to go, he just was in a daze.

But he didn’t panic. His father was a master who was in charge of a state. In this realm, who did not know the name of Li Chengren? The second son of Li, even if he was drunk on the street, there were those who would take him home.

Speaking of which, where had the second-hand scumbags who were usually by his side gone? Why was no one there to help? When they go back, they would be severely whipped.

What were their names? He was hanging out with them but couldn’t remember their name suddenly. He must be really drunk.

There was a shadow rubbing past his body. Before he could react, he was hit again.

Li Chengren became annoyed. These mischievous people were so bold that they dared to hit him.

Dazedly, he reached out to grab the arm of the man in front of him. The man dodged away, turned his face, a pair of light and short eyebrows raised, and looked at him angrily.

On the dim and hazy street, the figures were all chaotic, but only the person who suddenly looked back was particularly clear.

She was a little lady, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, her limbs and waist were slender, which was unique to a young girl.

Staring at her, Li Chengren was suddenly awake, “Where did the fairy-like little lady come from? Where did she hide in the past? I lived in vain for so many years, that today I saw the real beauty.” 

The little lady raised her eyebrows and was about to answer when someone stretched out her hand and grabbed her.

“Ah Zhang, don’t pay attention, don’t delay, let’s go,” a woman said. She was also a woman, her face was hidden in the dark, and her voice was extraordinarily gentle and pleasant.

Before Li Chengren could take a closer look at the visitor’s appearance, a palm like white jade had been stretched out in front of him, and that white and tender palm was holding a delicate golden ball that was spinning.

The golden ball dinged softly.

The voice echoed faintly, and it did not dissipate for a long time, as if the exclamation came from the coldest ice spring.

Clear, purifying, cold-hearted, detached from the mundane, awakening those who were sleeping from their dreams.

Li Chengren fought a cold war, and his mind became much clearer in an instant.

Right, he remembered.

At the market, he met a woman from a good family. Although she was wearing a loose skirt, she couldn’t hide her slender figure and beautiful face, and his soul was hooked at a glance.

The servants who followed him knew what he liked, and quickly coaxed the little lady into a deserted alley. For a while, he was very excited, and his heart gradually rose, and he slapped the little lady a few times, stunned her, and was about to forcefully press the beautiful woman.

What was going on? How did he come to this ghost place all of a sudden?

Li Chengren felt that something was wrong with his neck. He reached out and touched it, and was horrified to find that there was a sharp silver hairpin stuck there.

No! That must not be true.

He groped with trembling hands, the slender hairpin pierced through one end of his neck, the angry tip of the hairpin pierced his neck, and came out bloody from the other direction.

Wet blood streamed down his neck like a spring.

He was so panicked that he wanted to shout, but when he opened his mouth, his teeth were only chattering. He stretched out his hand to ask for help, but the two women in front of him had already left.

“Help…help…I don’t want to die.”

“I… I’m Second Young Master Li… Save me.”

However, he, who usually was surrounded by people, was ignored in that place. Li Chengren walked forward tremblingly. He grabbed a passerby who was dressed in neat satin clothes and turned to look at him blankly with a pale face.

“Oh, Li Ergou, you b*stard finally came, you really have eyes,” the man said coldly.

He actually recognized that person as an acquaintance who lived near his house. That person was always bullied by him. But he clearly remembered that this person had been dead for a long time.

Li Chengren let go numbly, and only then did he realize that the man he had caught was wearing a shroud that only the dead would wear when they were buried, and he was actually wearing that kind of clothing.

He burst into tears, crawled and tried to hold the other person. The man turned to face him, his eyes bulged, his tongue stuck out, and there was a deep dark brown mark on his neck, and his appearance was pale and terrifying lifeless.

 “No, no, no! I’m not dead, I don’t want to die! I don’t want to be in this f*cking place! Someone help me!”

“Wrong, I was wrong, I’ll never be like that again! Please someone help me!” His hoarse cry could not reach the dark and chaotic Ghost City.

Meng Zhang and Yuan Xiang had already passed through countless ghosts and spirits, running forward all the way.

Yuan Xiang’s palm had been turning the exquisite golden ball given to her by Yan Nu. This exquisite golden ball refined the innate ability of Yan Nu, could stabilize the soul, and could shock, arrest, and drive away all ghosts and spirits. It was a weapon for strangers like them to enter the ghost world.
