142: Ghost soldiers of thousands

"Hoofbeats? How could there be hoofbeats?"

Even through the screens, the audience felt waves of chill, a coldness that made their hearts run cold.

Especially now, hearing the specific background BGM, their hair stood on end.

It felt as if they were witnessing an ancient battlefield.

Upon hearing this sound, everyone from the Ninth Archive simultaneously turned pale.

It's over!

We're finished.

No wonder the King of Ancient Dian was so fearless; it turns out he had been prepared all along.

"Boss! This isn't what I think it is, right?"

One of the team members swallowed hard, hurriedly looking at Boss Feng beside him.

"It is exactly what you think it is."

Boss Feng's expression also turned grave; this was the root of the King of Ancient Dian's fearlessness.

Now Ye Bai and the others were facing a real problem.

"If only I were there, maybe the Vengeful Spirits in my Soul-Summoning Banner would be fully collected."

Another team member's eyes gleamed with golden light, showing a look of anticipation.

Apart from this member, the others looked at him speechlessly.

You're the only one here who likes to collect those messy, ownerless wandering souls.

Do you think everyone has your ancestral Soul-Summoning Banner? You're really overthinking this.

"Now it all depends on how Ye Bai handles it."

Boss Feng could only pin his hopes on Ye Bai now.

"How can he handle it? Ye Bai might have an advantage against the King of Ancient Dian alone, but these are likely ghost soldiers. Can he fight off an ancient army of thousands all by himself?"

The other members were very worried about Ye Bai; after all, the sheer numbers were right there.

Although Boss Feng looked nervous, it wasn't because of Ye Bai, but rather the celebrities.

Ye Bai's skills were the same as that person's, so there was nothing to worry about.

Inside the Tomb.

Ye Bai stood motionless, not even batting an eyelid.

In his heart, he desperately wanted to curse the King of Ancient Dian's ancestors down to the eighth generation.

What time is it, and he's still conjuring up so much Yin Qi?

Is he trying to freeze someone to death?

Yang Mi, Reba, Bailu, and the other ten people gathered together, nervously watching their surroundings.

They felt deeply uneasy.

"Nothing terrifying is going to come out, right?"

"You're right, a lot of terrifying things are definitely going to come out."

"I don't dare to look anymore."

Zhang Dada, Hua Chenyu, and Huang Zitao closed their eyes, standing behind Wu Jing.

They subconsciously covered their ears, refusing to listen or look.

Reba also hid behind Yang Mi, only revealing her eyes, nervously watching the surrounding environment.

Just as she lifted her gaze, she saw many black phantoms emerging from the inner walls of the underground palace.

These phantoms gradually became solid.

She could even clearly see them wearing armor, holding spears in their hands, and wearing hats on their heads.

There were a huge number of them, emerging one by one from the walls.

These phantoms had pale, bloodless faces, and their eye sockets were pitch black, with no eyeballs visible.

They were surrounded by a dark Aura, and just looking at them felt sinister, not to mention that Aura...

Just one glance made one break out in a cold sweat.

"Sister Mi! Brother Jing! Look."

Reba's voice trembled as she pointed her finger toward the very center.

They looked in that direction and saw many ghost soldiers emerging; not just infantry, but even soldiers on horseback.

Upon seeing the King of Ancient Dian, these soldiers all knelt on the ground in unison.

"Greetings, my King!"

The entire underground palace was filled with the soldiers' voices, loud and resonant, with an overwhelming Aura.

It even felt as if the underground palace was shaking with the sound.

The soldiers knelt on the ground, watching the King of Ancient Dian rule over the world, looking completely obedient.

This made the King of Ancient Dian look very satisfied.

Seeing this scene, Wu Jing, Zhang Dada, and the others were stunned.

Especially now.

They were already no match for the King of Ancient Dian; now, he had even summoned an army of thousands.

Wasn't this just trying to kill them?

"It's over... Damn it! We're dead for sure."

"Is it too late for us to run now?"

"I don't want to die; I feel terrified just looking at these Yin Souls."

Hua Chenyu, Zhang Dada, and Cai Xukun were all so scared that their legs were trembling.

Even their voices carried a tremor.

Earlier, Cai Xukun had said he wanted to turn and leave, but his feet felt like they had taken root, unable to move an inch.

"Brother Jing!! Let's go, okay? Let's not delay any longer."

Cai Xukun looked at Wu Jing with a miserable face, hoping that when Wu Jing left, he could pull him along.

But Wu Jing, Yang Mi, and the others acted as if they hadn't heard him, staring straight at the scene before them.

Their minds were completely blank right now.

What is this situation?

Ghost soldiers?

Or the King of Ancient Dian's soldiers...

Damn it!

What is up with this King of Ancient Dian? It's one thing to die himself, but he even took a group of soldiers to die with him.

He created his own army of thousands, creating an underworld Empire that belonged to him.

This is truly terrifying.

"This King of Ancient Dian is truly ruthless, actually bringing these thousands of troops with him."

It took a while for Wu Jing to speak.

"Forget about them for now, let's think about ourselves."

Yang Mi also snapped back to reality, though she still felt nervous inside.

This scene is rarely seen.

"What should we do? Should we run? We're no match for them in a head-on fight."

Bailu's complexion was not much better than those ghost soldiers; she was pale enough to rival them.

"We can't run. We'll just wait on the side; I won't abandon Ye Bai."

Yang Mi shook her head; she would not abandon Ye Bai to escape alone.

Back at the water pool earlier, she had confirmed her feelings. She liked Ye Bai, and she didn't want to experience the feeling of losing him again.

Ye Bai must not be harmed, absolutely not.

Even if something happened, she would stay with Ye Bai.

"If Sister Mi isn't leaving, I'm not leaving either; I can't be disloyal."

Reba was terrified at first, but the thought of leaving Ye Bai to face these guys alone was something she couldn't do.

"Me too!"

"And me!"

"I'm staying with Ye Bai too; if we die, we die together."

Yang Chaoyue, Bailu, and Meng Ziyi all stated their positions.

They were very scared, but no matter how scared they were, it wasn't as painful as losing Ye Bai.

"You..."

"Are you all crazy? What can we even do here?"

As soon as Cai Xukun thought of these women's attitudes, he was completely stunned; they were all crazy.

What could possibly be more important than one's own life?

"If you want to leave, go ahead. I'm not leaving."

Upon hearing Cai Xukun's words, Meng Ziyi glanced at him, her tone firm.

"If you're scared, you can leave. There's still time to leave now."

Wu Jing also stated his position. Throughout this journey, Ye Bai had been protecting them, and now that they were in danger, he couldn't just ignore it.
