The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Chapter 86 I Want to Witness with My Own Eyes

```

"Li... Brother Li?!"

Guan Xiaoshun was stunned.

He had originally taken a defensive stance, ready to defend himself.

According to the safety warnings given before setting out, when encountering vengeful spirits, as long as one focuses their mind and doesn't fall for the opponent's Illusion Technique, these city spirits wouldn't be able to kick up much of a storm.

Even though they were spirits from thousands of years ago, the resentful ghosts in the city were surprisingly weak, lacking the power of millennium-old specters.

They were more like residual thoughts left behind, with no other danger than using illusions to bewilder the living.

Theoretically speaking, as long as cultivators who have stepped into the Qi Refinement Realm travel in pairs and remain vigilant, there should be no risk when encountering vengeful ghosts.

But just as Guan Xiaoshun was about to defend himself using the technique provided, Li Muyang had grabbed him and started to sprint down the street.

Guan Xiaoshun hurriedly shouted, "Brother Li! Wake up quickly!"

He thought that Li Muyang had been deluded by a vengeful spirit and hence was behaving so strangely.

The young man tried to wake Li Muyang.

But just after Guan Xiaoshun finished speaking, a ghastly wind howled behind them.

A ghostly green fire fell at their feet, spreading an icy, bone-chilling presence.

Even though it was several meters away, Guan Xiaoshun could feel the deathly cold of the ghost fire.

If they were to be struck by this ghost fire...

Guan Xiaoshun swallowed hard and turned to look behind him.

A giant rat ghost, transparent and engulfed in a miserable green fire, sprinted under the moonlight, screeching as it chased after them.

The icy ghost fire burning around it flew towards Li Muyang and him, the temperature in the air dropping rapidly.

The ghost fire's lethal power was visibly tremendous; if one with a body of flesh and blood were hit by it, they would undoubtedly suffer.

This time, Li Muyang didn't need to drag him to run; Guan Xiaoshun began sprinting on his own, sweating profusely.

"This ghost can attack people?"

Weren't all the city's vengeful ghosts supposed to be incapable of attacking, only able to confuse with illusions?

Why was this giant rat so fierce?

Guan Xiaoshun was drenched in sweat and screeched in panic.

Meanwhile, Li Muyang, mid-sprint, glanced back at the half-transparent giant rat ghost chasing them.

They explained the situation to Brother Cheng.

Brother Cheng, formally known as Cheng Feiyang, stood out among the Inner Sect Disciples and was highly valued by Elder Yan, which is why he was able to take charge of the temporary leadership over more than a hundred Outer Sect Disciples.

Although he was called 'Brother', he was actually a year younger than Guan Xiaoshun.

A teenage boy, he was short, reaching only to Li Muyang's shoulder.

When Li Muyang and Guan Xiaoshun returned early to their starting point, the small Brother Cheng from the Inner Sect, dressed in a white robe, was sitting on the steps, engrossed in solving a set of metal linked rings.

Made of metal wires, the nine rings interlocked with each other, appearing very complex.

When he saw Li Muyang and Guan Xiaoshun returning early, the little Brother Cheng quickly hid the linked rings behind him and stood up with a stern face.

"Why have you two come back early? Have you finished searching your designated block?"

The boy in the Inner Sect white robe tried hard to put on an authoritative demeanor.

Li Muyang and Guan Xiaoshun exchanged looks and bowed in unison.

"Brother Cheng, here's what happened..."

Li Muyang recounted their encounter with the giant rat spirit.

Brother Cheng, the little one, clearly enjoyed Li Muyang's respectful approach.

But after hearing the story, he frowned and said, "Nonsense! How could any remnant soul within Magic Sword City have the power to attack the living!"

"Take me to see for myself. I need to witness it!"

Brother Cheng, not believing in curses, insisted that Li Muyang and Guan Xiaoshun take him back to the scene.

Li Muyang estimated that the little Brother Cheng's cultivation level... was said to be at the late stage of Foundation Establishment?

Although the previous encounter with the Rat King spirit was daunting, they had been unable to catch up with two Qi Refinement Realm Cultivators, so it was unlikely that Brother Cheng would capsize.

So, Li Muyang obediently took Brother Cheng back to the block where they had discovered the rat demon spirit.

It was still that place emanating an eerie and ominous shadow.

As Li Muyang approached with little Brother Cheng, a resentful and agitated voice suddenly came from the shadows.

The next second, a monstrous evil spirit, engulfed in a dismal green ghostly fire, leaped out from the darkness.

Startling and chilling.

With overwhelming resentment and a cold wind, it rushed towards Brother Cheng.

"Kill you... kill you!"

The wailing of the rat's vengeful spirit spread far and wide under the moonlight.
