Chapter 288 The Ghost Woman's Strength
The power was very weak, and Zhao Yulin didn't notice anything. However, it was this weak power that stirred up Chen Ying's emotions. In the end, Chen Ying gritted her teeth and agreed. Immediately, a snow-white ice spike appeared in her palm.
This ice spike resembles a spear, but both ends are exceptionally sharp. There is only a grip in the middle, while the sharp ends emit a cold, eerie green light, which undoubtedly indicates that it is a highly poisonous weapon.
"Go over there. Don't worry, you'll be fine. Just walk right up to her and stab her heart with this broken dagger." The ghost woman continued to bewitch Chen Ying with her weak mental power.
Under the influence of the ghost woman, Chen Ying gripped the broken sword that gleamed with a cold, eerie green light and walked step by step toward the already frozen Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng, who was frozen in ice, naturally noticed Chen Ying walking over. However, when she saw the broken cloth in Chen Ying's hand, her heart, which was made of flames, couldn't help but ache. She was less than a hundred meters away from Chen Ying. At this distance, her dark flames were enough to incinerate everything. If she wanted, she could burn Chen Ying to ashes at any time. But that was her daughter, and she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"Holy crap, Chenying, are you crazy? You'll be burned alive if you go over there!" Zhao Manyan shouted as soon as he saw Chenying walking towards Jiang Feng.
He said that Chenying was also his cousin. Although he was very unhappy with what his uncle Zhao Yulin had done this time, he was able to sit idly by and watch Chenying go to her death. That's why he called out to Chenying who was walking towards Jiang Feng.
Upon hearing Zhao Manyan's shout, Chen Ying stopped in her tracks. She knew that going there would mean being burned to death by the flames, but she really wanted to help her "mother" escape her suffering. Her "mother" had been in despair for years because of her disfigured face, and now that she finally had a chance to help her, she would not give up easily.
"Don't listen to him, Chenying, do as I say, you'll be fine. Don't you even believe me?" The ghost woman, wrapped entirely in white cloth, said in a shrill voice.
Then he glared fiercely at Zhao Manyan and said angrily, "I'm warning you, you'd better not meddle in other people's business."
To prevent Zhao Manyan from continuing to talk nonsense, the ghost woman's eyes shone with an eerie light. It was a high-level skill unique to the mind-based magic, Soul Control. Struck by the mind-based magic, Zhao Manyan not only lost control of his body but also couldn't speak.
Meanwhile, Chen Ying, who was not far from Jiang Feng, was also controlled by the ghost woman using Soul-Seizing Mind Control. Under Soul-Seizing Mind Control, Chen Ying's eyes instantly turned blood red, and then she swung the broken sword in her hand and stabbed it towards Jiang Feng's heart.
"Jiang Han, stop her!!" Xin Xia cried out weakly after noticing Chen Ying's actions.
When Jiang Feng conveyed the message she wanted through Xin Xia, she also sent Xin Xia a lot of memories about what happened back then. After reviewing those memories, Xin Xia was extremely shocked. She never expected that this Flame Witch was actually Chen Ying's mother.
"Hmm." Jiang Han nodded, then raised his hand and waved out several ice crystal chains to bind Chen Ying, and then pulled her back with force.
When the ghost woman saw that Jiang Han had ruined her good time, her eyes were filled with murderous intent, and she wished she could devour Jiang Han alive.
"Boy, do you know that meddling in other people's business can kill you?!" the ghost woman said in a hoarse voice.
"Ghostly Punishment: Soul Crushing!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Han felt as if his body was being gripped by some enormous creature. Not only was his body unable to move, but his soul was also constantly being assaulted by a malevolent force. What appeared behind Jiang Han was a huge ghost.
This enormous monster stood as tall as a small mountain, its body half-tied up, its hands firmly gripping Jiang Han's body.
The immense force acted directly on Jiang Han's soul, causing excruciating pain. However, this situation did not last long. After Jiang Han activated the Qingxin Pendant with his demonic energy, the energy ripples dissipated instantly after passing over Gui Xing's massive body.
"My turn!!" As he spoke, purple starlight shone from Jiang Han's body.
"Thunderbolt Dance!!"
Purple star trails emerged, eventually weaving into a magnificent lightning star map beneath Jiang Han's feet.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and occasionally, gray-purple lightning surged within the thick clouds. As Jiang Han swung his right hand toward the ghost woman on the pavilion, the lightning, filled with destructive energy, struck down directly from the sky.
The gray-purple lightning dispersed in mid-air, transforming into countless gray-purple lightning snakes that darted about, their target the ghost woman in the attic.
Sensing the destructive aura emanating from the lightning snakes, the ghost woman immediately flipped over to dodge. One of the lightning snakes struck the attic, reducing it to ruins, but the remaining few lightning snakes continued to attack her.
"Damn it, how come there's such a troublesome kid here?" the ghost woman said in a hoarse voice.
As the ghost woman ran, she drew a star map in her hand. Soon, a brownish-red object appeared in her hand, followed by several brownish-red rock barriers. Two gray-purple lightning snakes shattered the rock barriers on the spot.
The remaining two gray-purple lightning snakes rushed straight at the ghost woman. If she were bitten by these lightning snakes, even a high-level mage like the ghost woman would be seriously injured. Therefore, the ghost woman dared not confront the lightning snakes head-on and instead summoned her armor magic tool.
This set of armor and magical artifacts is a standard magical artifact from the Dunhuang Guard District. I obtained it a few years ago after killing a Guard mage in Dunhuang.
The raging gray-purple lightning snake bit down hard on the armor, cracking the entire armor. With a loud bang, the standard armor exploded.
It has to be said that standard magical artifacts are never as good as those bought at auctions, but those two gray-purple lightning snakes also vanished into nothingness.
"Mind magic, earth magic? You're not Jiang Feng, who are you?!" Zhao Yulin then realized that the person standing next to him was not his wife.
"You only realized she had a problem at this point? I don't know whether to call you stupid or just plain stupid?"
As he spoke, the ice-type star map lit up again beneath Jiang Han's feet, the scorching air began to cool down slowly, and snowflakes even began to fall from the sky. The ground that was still burning began to extinguish as the temperature dropped.
After the flames on the ground were completely extinguished, the ground was frozen in an instant. Chains of ice crystals shot out from the ground and headed straight for the ghost woman in the distance. At this moment, a brownish light flashed in the ghost woman's eyes.
"Rock Demon's Eye - Petrify!!"
Immediately, the ice crystal chains that were sweeping towards the ghost woman were petrified and shattered into countless pieces that fell to the ground.
While Jiang Han was fighting the ghost woman, Chen Ying and Zhao Manyan, with Xin Xia's help, finally broke free from the ghost woman's soul-capturing and mind-controlling techniques. However, this made Xin Xia's face even paler.
