Since ancient times, good and evil have been irreconcilable. Where there is "good," naturally, there is also "evil." Although good and evil are opposites, they are also one and the same. There is no absolute justice, nor is there absolute evil. It's precisely that the definition of good and evil is quite controversial. Some witchcraft is too cruel and vicious, and thus is defined by the "righteous" as "evil." But this witchcraft that manipulates the dead not only violates ethics but is also shocking.

How the Ghost Soldiers are formed is not the most crucial issue right now. Ji Qian made a preliminary judgment that these two roads on the left and right lead in different directions, which also means that the two roads cannot converge in the end. So how can they reunite with Ye Shikai?

"Sir, how about we stay where we are? Perhaps the Netherworld King is coming back with his men." Selena glanced at the people behind, only twenty or thirty of them, and if they ran into Ghost Soldiers again, it would be terrible. Moreover, there were no valiant fighters around, making it hard to fend off danger.

"No, the road behind has already been blocked by Ghost Soldiers. If they come, they might not be able to save us and it would be rather a near-death situation." Ji Qian pointed ahead. "We can only keep moving forward."

"Alright, I swear to follow you to the death."

"Follow me, everyone." Ji Qian shouted loudly. In fact, she was unsure herself. The biggest fear comes from the unknown, and the biggest vulnerability comes from within the team. When an atmosphere of fear spreads in an unreliable team, there's no need to wait for the Ghost Soldiers; they would already be in chaos, and might even kill each other. For the team and for herself, she could only grit her teeth and push forward.

"Who goes there?" Suddenly, footsteps came from one side of the road, probably about a dozen people. Not many were coming. Could it be other families entering the ruins? It's very possible since there were many families entering from other entrances, and "running into each other" in the middle is quite normal.

Everyone took a stance. Not knowing who was coming, they were ready to fight to the death if necessary.

Thump, thump, thump.

The footsteps approached little by little, and everyone held their breath.

"Oh, Miss Ji, we meet again." A chilly voice sounded.

"It's you."

.......................................

"Damn it, how on earth can we get across?" Ye Shikai pounded the stone wall forcefully. It seems that Ji Qian's losing contact was a great blow to him. In fact, while he is usually rational, once it involves the people around him, he could do anything, even make very irrational and absurd decisions.

The directions of the two roads on the left and right are opposite and cannot converge. Ye Shikai must have noticed this phenomenon, hence his frequent complaints.

However, all of this was seen by Chen Yuxin.

"Kai, since it's a tomb, there must be a pattern in the layout. I imagine that as long as we can reach the final main burial chamber, we will be able to converge there." Chen Yuxin stepped forward to comfort him. Now Ye Shikai was in anger, and even a ghost wouldn't dare to provoke him lightly; the only person who dared to comfort him was Chen Yuxin.

"Thank you, Xin, for getting startled just now." Ye Shikai leaned weakly against the stone wall, letting out a long breath.

"Not at all. Those people dared to have greedy intentions. Don't talk about you taking action; I couldn't tolerate them either. Those people dared to target my man, so let them be buried here with Bai Qi." Chen Yuxin's voice turned cold. If Ye Shikai hadn't acted swiftly just now, she would have been ready for a massacre. In fact, in this regard, Chen Yuxin is quite similar to Ye Shikai.

Once it involves the people around her, even if the other party only has "no malicious intentions yet," she would take their lives.

"We must guard against these people. After all, this is a temporary alliance, and the Four Elements have already been coveted. I think someone will take action again." Ye Shikai nodded. The incident just now served as a warning to Li Yueying. That arrogant old elder dared to act so brazenly, largely because of Li Yueying's tacit approval. But now, Li Yueying seemed to have calmed down. Now she also couldn't find traces of other Li Mansion members, meaning that even if he took action now, killing all the Li Mansion people and silencing the Chen and Ji families, even if the Family Head investigated, they wouldn't find out who did it.

What a wicked thought.

Ye Shikai reconsidered. Since he basically broke ties with the Li Mansion, he might as well make good use of it.

"Li Yueying, take your people and go check the front." Ye Shikai shouted, turning his head.

"What, did I hear wrong? He wants the young lady to go in front."

"This is too much."

"Mr. Ye, what did you say?" Even the usually calm Li Yueying frowned at these words. Having encountered Ghost Soldiers as soon as they came in, who knows what else is next. Isn't going in front just being cannon fodder?

"I said, you and your people walk in front. Is there anything you don't understand?" Ye Shikai said coldly.

"I am the Li Mansion's eldest miss. Why should I listen to you?" Li Yueying gritted her teeth and growled fiercely.

"You are indeed the Li Mansion's eldest miss, so you naturally don't have to listen to me, but... would you listen to it?" Ye Shikai suddenly swung out his sword with such speed that everyone did not notice. By the time they reacted, the sword had already stuck in the stone wall, only twenty centimeters from Li Yueying's head.

"Hey, brat, are you crazy, using all your Inner Strength to throw a sword?" The Blade Soul's voice rang out. Indeed, the reason Ye Shikai could throw such a "thunderous" sword was that he condensed all his Inner Strength for one purpose: to intimidate the Li Mansion people and make them dare not act rashly.

Of course, Ye Shikai also scrambled to maintain an indifferent appearance, thanks to the help of the Inner God Scripture, which helped him quickly recover his Inner Strength.

"Stop arguing, help me recover my Inner Strength and let me finish the act."

"Ugh, I really can't stand you."

"Li Yueying, if you don't want to comply, then don't blame me for being unkind." Ye Shikai said coldly, waving his hand. The people of the Netherworld Palace immediately assumed a combat stance. This "acting" indeed intimidated Li Yueying, and she began to wonder if Ye Shikai might really dare to take action. Given the bodyguards and elders around her now, they are not the opponents of the Chen and Ji families.

"After all, I've already committed a massacre earlier. Killing a few more is no bother." Ye Shikai, seeing the turn, wielded the Fire Element, forming a big fireball in the air.

"Brother, this... might not be a good idea. Even if we don't get involved, if the Li Mansion finds out, they might retaliate against us." Ji Feng stepped forward to advise.

"No, let's wait and see." Ji Tao looked serious, watching the situation closely.

"Alright then, I'll kill one first." Ye Shikai shouted loudly, and that fireball descended from the sky, fiercely lunging at the crowd.
