With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

Isn't what Azhen is waiting for just a half-step Ghost King?

To be honest, I was a little worried that they wouldn't come.

“This house is shrouded by a half-step Ghost King,” Hua Wen said again. Just as he was about to come out, A Zhen touched the jade tablet and stopped Hua Wen from doing so.

"Don't worry, it can't hurt me."

Azhen didn't put down her phone, pretending not to know anything. After all, in the eyes of the half-step Ghost King, she was someone with little ability.

I suppose many people in this castle think so.

Now, many people online are saying she's a fraud.

The client didn't linger in this world long after her death, so naturally she couldn't see what was happening online. It's not hard to guess; her death might seem surprising, but more likely it makes people think she was a fraud—otherwise, how could she not even dodge a single attack from a half-step Ghost King?
The answer is about to be revealed, and Azhen is eager to know what the secret behind it is.

She had a gut feeling that if Deborah survived tonight, she would give everyone a satisfying and shocking answer.

It must be very exciting.

In that instant, the air in the room suddenly turned cold, as if it were minus twenty degrees Celsius. Even the water glass that Azhen had placed on the table froze solid. If the water glass hadn't been of good quality, it might have cracked from the sudden temperature change.

There were many live streaming devices in the room. Even though there were fewer viewers at this time, the change in the water glass was so obvious that someone still noticed it.

[Holy crap! What happened? Look at the water glass!]

[It's frozen! It's frozen! The water glass in front of Boss Feng is frozen solid.]

[Wow, is this special effects, or did Boss Feng do something?]

[It shouldn't be special effects. Don't forget the purpose of this live stream; Wen's doesn't have time to bother with special effects.]

At this point, they were more convinced that it was Azhen who had done something, after all, it's not unusual for a master like her to be able to freeze things, is it?
But they'll be disappointed; this really wasn't something A-Zhen did.

While the audience was still in shock, a figure appeared out of thin air in front of Azhen, transforming from an illusion into a solid form. The viewers in the live stream started screaming, asking if it was a ghost or something.

"I've heard there are many masters here, but I hate masters like you the most."

“Especially for those of you who have no ability, I’ll slap you one by one.”

"I'm just one step away from becoming a Ghost King. If I devour the souls of you little Xuan Masters today, I might be able to advance."

The Half-Step Ghost King spoke arrogantly, his smile ferocious. Without saying another word, he slapped Azhen's position with his palm. He thought that this slap would definitely kill this Xuan Master who had no real skills.

He didn't think anything would go wrong at all. He was very sensitive to the aura of a Xuan Master, and this woman didn't have a trace of a Xuan Master's aura on her.

However, at that very moment, A-Zhu suddenly got up and quickly dodged.

If she doesn't dodge, how can Deborah be pulled out?
The spot where she dodged was exactly where the client should have fallen.

Half-step Ghost King clearly hadn't expected A-Zhuang to actually dodge it. He thought to himself, "The opponent's mystical arts aren't that great, but her reaction speed is pretty good."

But it didn't work.

He hadn't paid much attention before, which allowed the other party to escape with their life.

He was still very angry and was about to attack Azhen again.

Deborah's room door opened, and she was taken aback by the scene outside. Her expression changed slightly: "Half-step Ghost King!"

How could a half-step Ghost King appear in the Wen family castle?
No way, how could that be!

Given Wen Song's current abilities, the Wen family castle should have been inspected by a master, and they might even have some exorcism items installed.

What's going on? Deborah glanced quickly at Azhen, who was hiding to the side. She didn't seem to be injured, and she didn't retreat into the room.

With the abilities of a half-step Ghost King, hiding in a room would only lead to a more miserable death.

Damn it, what a coincidence! Just when she was overexerted, the Half-Step Ghost King appeared.

Wait, this is over-consumption!
Deborah's pupils contracted sharply; she understood, she finally understood.

Damn it, damn it! How could she have underestimated her opponent? She knew perfectly well that the other party was ruthless and not at all like what he appeared to be.

Why would she think that she knows everything and can hide in the shadows so that she won't be discovered?
Will she have to pay the price for her arrogance and conceit?
If she had known, she should have exposed the whole truth regardless of the consequences.

Only then did she realize that she had never truly known that person.

The half-step Ghost King had already locked onto her. It wasn't that she didn't want to leave; when he discovered her, he didn't even glance at Feng Zhen, his eyes fixed on her as if he wanted to devour her alive.

They really came for her!
Killing Feng Zhen was just a matter of course, but unfortunately Feng Zhen was quite capable and wasn't killed immediately.

There was no such thing as a coincidence, Deborah was absolutely certain, this was a setup targeting her. Why? Why now?
How did that person find out in advance?
Is this the privilege of being favored by the world? Therefore, she has no chance against the chosen one!

But I just can't swallow this insult. If only I had known…

After killing her, the Half-Step Ghost King will definitely kill Feng Zhen next. I wonder if he can hold out until the others arrive.

The only people capable of dealing with a half-step Ghost King are Fu Yingshu and Ge Yu.

Is this how we're going to have to leave in such a sorry state?

Once they leave, it's uncertain how long it will take to return, or they may never have the chance to come back again.

Really unwilling.

No, no, a sudden look of terror crossed Deborah's eyes, a horrifying thought flashing through her mind. Since that person was targeting her, how could she possibly let her go?
This time, the other party is probably going to keep her here permanently, or... make her soul disappear.

That's ruthless, truly ruthless.

Overwhelmed with despair, Deborah was filled with resentment and was about to shout something.

In an instant, the Half-Step Ghost King, his face contorted in a ferocious grin, lunged at Deborah's neck.

Although Deborah managed to erect a protective shield at the crucial moment, it was instantly shattered by the half-step Ghost King due to insufficient power.

Her face was deathly pale as she tried to say something, but the Half-Step Ghost King was already in front of her, locking onto her. Now her power was completely exhausted, and she was unable to struggle at all, let alone make a sound.

This is a conspiracy against her; I'm afraid her voice won't get out.

After all, this was arranged by that person, so all aspects should have been taken into consideration.

Did he die just like that?
It's really a pity.

She became confident.

In fact, her actions had already been noticed by the other party. How ridiculous, how ridiculous that she thought she was the one standing in the shadows.

[Oh no, oh no, oh no! Has the rest of the people in the castle arrived yet? If they don't come soon, Deborah is going to die!]

Deborah must have overexerted herself earlier; she has no strength left to resist.

Where is Feng Zhen? Why isn't Feng Zhen making a move?

[Feng Zhen doesn't have that ability, does he? Just wait, after the Half-Step Ghost King kills Deborah, he will definitely kill Feng Zhen.] (End of Chapter)
