I was already annoyed that I was called here to work by Scarlett Jennings.
But before finishing the task, someone summoned me over with music from the Nether Realm.
The Yin Mountain Ghost King stared closely at the man exuding demonic energy before him, his voice growing heavy,
"Was it you?"
Are you the one disturbing my work?
From not far away, inside an array, two little Yin Mountain ghosts were frantically waving at him,
"Master! Lord Ghost King! We’re here!"
"Lord Ghost King is here! He must have come to save us!"
"Waaah~ The Master is so kind~"
Only then did the Yin Mountain Ghost King notice his little followers, as well as the sorcerer holding a suona, staring at him in shock.
Ah, so this kid was the one who summoned me.
Considering he is Scarlett Jennings’ ally and is protecting my little followers, the Yin Mountain Ghost King thought since he was already here, he might as well handle the nuisance before him.
And so, within five minutes, the Yin Mountain Ghost King dealt with the Evil Master before him.
Only then did he flash and appear in front of Ashton Todd.
Ashton Todd held his suona, standing close to Braxton Weaver, looking small and helpless.
Before the Yin Mountain Ghost King could question him further, he was surrounded by his two little followers.
"Master! It’s good that you’re here!"
This one pointed to Derek Gibney lying on the ground, saying,
"The Dreamy Tapirus avatar in this human’s dream is too fierce, we can’t beat it."
This one said, "Master, you need to make the decision for us."
That one added, "Yeah, yeah, go into the dream and beat it up!"
The Yin Mountain Ghost King had no choice but to comply with his two little followers. Thinking about how this was part of Scarlett Jennings’ orders, he transformed into a mass of shadow energy and entered Derek Gibney’s body.
Just as the Ghost King disappeared, an old man’s soul body slowly emerged from the void.
He glanced at Ashton Todd from afar, nodded, and stroked his beard,
"It seems this old man isn’t needed here."
After speaking, the soul body vanished, heading towards another area where demon energy was gathering.
...
The situation outside quickly shifted with the addition of reinforcements.
After confirming that those from the Capital Metropolitan had arrived, Magnolia Hearne was about to join Scarlett Jennings when her phone suddenly received a message from Scarlett Jennings.
Upon seeing that Luca Jennings might be in trouble, Magnolia Hearne’s heart immediately tightened.
After ensuring that Scarlett Jennings’ side could hold for the moment, she quickly transformed into her demon form and headed straight for the Jennings Group where Luca Jennings was located.
Normally, she would never dare move through the city using her demon form so brazenly, but most of Sea City’s population had fallen asleep under the influence of the Dreamy Tapirus, and the city’s surveillance cameras were inoperable, so she didn’t care.
The other reason was that she needed to quickly ascertain Luca Jennings’ safety so that Scarlett wouldn’t be constrained and unable to fight freely.
Meanwhile, across the Jennings Family.
After Easton Wright learned that Scarlett Jennings had used the Boundary Breaking to bring in reinforcements through an incomplete breach, he quickly concealed himself within the Black Mist.
Scarlett Jennings took this opportunity to message Magnolia Hearne.
Then, she began attempting to use her demonic power to track Easton Wright’s whereabouts.
Not just him, but also to find the traces of Layla Xalvadora and Benedict Beast, who were taken by him.
Although the demonic power from her Demon Bone was not influenced by the rules of the Black Mist, Scarlett Jennings hadn’t been using her demonic power for long.
In other words, without relying on spiritual power and only using demonic power, she was not skilled at all.
But regardless of her lack of skill, she couldn’t back down now.
Guided by her demonic power, Scarlett Jennings led Gregory Xander, still acting as a puppet, back into the opponent’s Black Mist.
Scarlett Jennings wanted to say something more, but they saw in front of them a group of people appear outside the house within the Black Mist, angrily cursing at the building,
"Monster! Don’t think you’re safe hiding in there, get out of here!"
"Faceless monster, surely she’s the one who harmed the spirit lady, get out!"
"If you don’t come out, we’re gonna set the house on fire!"
A group of people shouted, gathering around the door of the house. Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers exchanged a glance.
Samuel Chalmers stepped forward, trying to stop one of them, only to discover the person vanished like an apparition before his eyes.
"This is a dream."
Samuel Chalmers said.
This must be the dream scenario where Layla Xalvadora imagined returning to the spirit lady’s home after losing her.
Scarlett Jennings nodded, "It seems we’ve been pulled into Layla Xalvadora’s dream."
As if responding to their realization, a Benedict Beast slowly emerged from the Black Mist.
It held a severed limb that appeared to be of some animal in its mouth, yet its expression wasn’t pleasant.
Just moments ago, it had finally found the hiding body of the Dreamy Tapirus in Layla Xalvadora’s dream, ready to beat it up and drag it out, but the dream was suddenly enveloped in a mass of Black Mist.
Quickly thereafter, the Dreamy Tapirus that had been at a disadvantage seemed to gain some rule-like power, breaking away from it instantly. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Benedict Beast was discontentedly searching through the Black Mist, and suddenly noticed the two before it.
It squinted and sensed carefully, but found no familiar aura from the two of them.
An expression of displeasure immediately crossed Benedict Beast’s face.
A mere Dreamy Tapirus dares use an Eye-blocking Technique to fool it!
Without hesitation, it lashed its tail toward the two of them.
See if it hits!
