"Hmph, finally it's time to make a move?"
Wu Liang snorted coldly, pointing the Mist Sword in the direction of the General of Qin, while a rusted kitchen knife was hidden at his waist, ready to merge at any moment.
After all, it appears that this General of Qin, apart from the ability to summon thousands of troops to trample the land, mainly relies on his martial arts in combat, and the bronze halberd he wields swings with the force of a tiger.
Whoosh—
A fierce gust of sinister wind blew through, and the silhouette of the General of Qin vanished instantly from the entrance.
Reappearing beside Wu Liang, positioned between him and Director Long.
This move surprised Wu Liang even more — because he noticed that the General of Qin's mobility wasn't through any Fierce Ghost ability to teleport or use spatial techniques.
But rather a pure physical burst with his Fierce Ghost shell, sprinting forward like an arrow!
It seemed like a teleport as he disappeared and reappeared due to the unbelievable speed!
This level of physical fitness, even for himself, can only be barely achieved when merging with the Kitchen Knife Ghost, and can be sustained for only about ten minutes!
But for the General of Qin, it seems to be just routine, and the true robustness of his Fierce Ghost body is simply unbelievable!
"I'll measure it! Just a touch would tell..."
"Duck!"
Wu Liang cursed as he prepared to merge with the Kitchen Knife Ghost, ready to go head-to-head with this General of Qin.
However, the opponent simply reprimanded with slightly excited tones, then swung the bronze halberd towards Wu Liang's forehead.
This time, Wu Liang felt no intent to kill.
Or rather, the murderous intent wasn't aimed at him!
So he instinctively dodged the fierce slashing of the bronze halberd, with the sharp edge barely grazing his scalp.
Ultimately, it slashed straight at the Fierce Ghost that had retreated to a kilometer behind Wu Liang earlier.
Whoosh—
Even at such distance, all the buildings, trees, flowers, and grass in between were cut through, whipping up a storm like swinging a sickle in a wheat field, flattening everything within a kilometer behind Wu Liang.
Including the City-annihilating Ghost, who seemed to have kept a safe distance.
It was forcefully cut in half, wailing as it fell to the ground, trying to reconnect its body.
But the area of the fracture appeared to be entangled by some strange force, completely unable to recover, leaving it silently awaiting the disappearance of its consciousness and its exorcism.
"What is... this ghostly thing?"
Director Long murmured in shock.
Effortlessly leveling everything within a kilometer was no big deal; such acts were a trifle to Director Long, who could even make half a city vanish with a mere gesture.
But the actions of that Fierce Ghost before dying clearly indicated it should have the means to heal, it just didn't work for some reason.
What kind of ability could nullify a Fierce Ghost's recovery method?
Even during the instant the bronze halberd was swung earlier, Director Long felt that if he were standing in front of it, he might have been unable to activate spatial ability to transfer and evade.
At that moment, all abilities within attack range seemed to have been rendered ineffective.
A body with incredibly powerful fitness, capable of summoning an army to crush, a bronze halberd that never misses, plus a bizarre force that renders all abilities ineffective.
This General of Qin is simply too overpowering!
"Has there been any accidental injury?" The General of Qin asked blandly, "Forgive me, I cannot stray far from the palace; thus, I must exorcise the filthy thing here."
Having said that, he cast his profound gaze upon Wu Liang.
This left both men even more bewildered.
What is this supposed to be?
Are they being cared for by an immensely powerful Fierce Ghost? Isn't this like a weasel giving New Year blessings to a hen?
"Uh... no issue, General, you're not planning to use us for sharpening your blade or for some festive occasion?" Wu Liang asked in confusion, looking at the General of Qin who stood before him without any killing intent.
Is there really a Fierce Ghost that doesn't kill people?
Has the sun risen from the west?
"Ridiculous! Why would I, a Great Qin general, slaughter civilians? Such feasting talk is nonsense! Are you implying I, too, should consume raw meat and drink blood like that filthy thing?"
The General of Qin frowned upon hearing Wu Liang's words, seemingly more bewildered than him.
This thoroughly unsettled Wu Liang.
What does it mean? A Fierce Ghost that doesn't kill!?
That's unheard of!
Theoretically, even Fierce Ghosts within a symbiont would lose control and twist thoughts leading the symbiotic object to commit harm, which is why there's no progress in researching human-Fierce Ghost symbiosis conditions.
After all, nobody understands why a killer Fierce Ghost would choose to symbiotically bond with a person.
It's like humans wouldn't choose to swear allegiance to a drumstick; for Fierce Ghosts, humans should just be something like food!
"Since you don't plan to kill us, why not go deal with those two Fierce... filthy things right next to us?" Wu Liang, still somewhat skeptical.
Wu Liang could be considered the world's most knowledgeable human regarding Fierce Ghosts.
Possessing the Ghost Compendium and having read countless Fierce Ghost information, Wu Liang found it hard to believe that detente exists between humans and Fierce Ghosts.
Speaking of the Ghost Compendium, Wu Liang still had an unresolved question in his mind—
Why has he not found any information about the General of Qin's Fierce Ghost?
Ever since the General of Qin emerged, Wu Liang had been browsing its Fierce Ghost information but found nothing so far.
"Could this guy not be a Fierce Ghost?"
An incomprehensible idea surfaced.
But Wu Liang immediately dispelled it.
What nonsense! If such a being is not a Fierce Ghost, could it really be someone from the Qin Dynasty alive till now? Then wouldn't he be a deity?
Before Wu Liang could comprehend this, the General of Qin, upon confirming his earlier attack didn't accidentally harm, nodded in agreement.
His figure vanished once more, swiftly moving to eliminate the two other fleeing City-annihilating Ghosts.
The swiftness and ruthlessness of the action was astounding.
After completing his task, he returned to the museum door, still wide open but with its interior unseen, and turned to enter.
Yet at the moment of lifting his leg, his entire body suddenly shivered.
He then knelt with both knees at the entrance, laid the bronze halberd flat before him, placed his hands on the ground, and lowered his head slightly to touch his hand and perform a bowing ritual.
After a moment, he slowly stood up.
This time he didn't rush back into the museum but instead shouted to the two hundred meters away: "My lord summons you two to meet! Please follow me into the hall!"
Wu Liang and Director Long were utterly dumbfounded.
The master whom the General of Qin needs to bow to, doesn't their identity already need no speculation?
Is the Ancestral Dragon... truly inside?
