Chapter 717 Blood Light
The scroll stood suspended in mid-air, as if a sword, radiating an ominous glow.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
Boom!
Suddenly, a small me sparked upon the scroll, igniting it. Crackling fiercely, it produced a blood-red smoke that drifted towards theke and mingled with the water.
As the smoke merged, bubbles emerged fiercely from the tranquilke as if the water boiled.
Shrill cries echoed as shadowy ck figures emerged from theke''s depths. These figures, resembling human shadows, were all iplete and distorted.
They were the evil spirits, souls of those who had died without proper burial or anyone to mourn them, left exposed to the natural elements. Their spirits, forced to remain in the mortal realm, had withered under the assault of sun and rain, wind and storm, transforming into vengeful, iplete entities.
Though not demons, these evil spirits were even more ferocious. Summoned by ck using the scroll, they floated towards Daniel, intending to feast upon his soul as ants would a worm, leaving nothing behind.
"Heh!" Daniel chuckled coldly, watching the evil spirits converge towards him. At the sound of hisughter, the spirits froze, as if terrified, suddenly too scared to press on.
"ck, did you really think slicing your finger and drawing on a scroft was going to summon these evil spirits to feast on my soul?" Daniel queried, still grinning.
The paralysis of the evil spirits turned ck''s face dark with vexation. Staring at Daniel as if he were a freak, ck demanded, "What have you done to them?"
"What have I done? I haven''t done anything! Look at them, each one more broken than thest. What could+do to them? Even if I were to do something, my actions would extend only to beautiful women!"
As he spoke, Daniel''s gaze inadvertently shifted towards Beauty, but her intense re forced him to look quickly away towards Victoria instead.
ck seemed to have an epiphany. He red at Daniel and asked sternly, "Country bumpkin, do you know witchcraft?"
"Witchcraft? Look at how innocent and pure I am, I''m practically a virgin. How could I possibly know witchcraft? These evil spirits don''t daree close because I''m too pure. My heart is even purer than that of a newborn. So, they''r@afraid to stand beside me, fearing their filth will stand out even more against my purity!"
Although Daniel spoke as if it were the truth, ck didn''t believe a word of it.
"Stop your bullshit, country bumpkin! You, pure and wless? In your dreams!"
ck''s disbelief hung heavy in the air as the standoff between him and Daniel continued.
