Chapter 1310 Hunting Alone


    Cloud was excited. This was even more thrilling than my undercover missions! I felt something


    different! The stakes were high when I carried out a mission in the mortal world! But if I lost here, the


    worst that could happen was losing a leg.


    Cloud confidently said, "Trust me, believe I can defeat it!"


    Then, Cloud pulled out a short de and quickly engaged inbat.


    "Hey, don''t run away!" Cloud yelled.


    The demonic beast felt that something was amiss when he saw Lilly and Crawford Ancestor and was


    about to leave. However, Cloud rushed up.


    Watching Cloud engage the demonic beast in battle, Lilly hesitated and said, "Crawford Ancestor,


    should we just let it go? Uncle Cloud seems to be enjoying himself here."


    Crawford Ancestor replied, "No, this is just the beginning. These are the simplest challenges."


    Challenges? Never mind, forget about it; I will protect him... Or else, what can I do?


    But deep down, Crawford Ancestor had softened. After all, Cloud is a descendant of the Crawford


    family. It is my duty to protect him!


    Unaware of Crawford Ancestor change of mind, Lilly suggested, "How about we let Uncle Cloud go


    through this experience on his own?" Of course, we would not truly leave him alone. He might face


    danger! We will hide in the shadows to ensure his safety.


    Crawford Ancestor nodded and said, "That''s the n." We must let Cloud face his trials alone. Perhaps


    he had been too bold and confident with us around. Facing challenges and growing on his own is


    different.


    Crawford Ancestor still secretly hoped that Cloud would reincarnate someday. Cloud had lived a


    solitary life. He should have a prosperous life in the future!


    As Cloud fought fiercely with the demonic beast, his full attention was on it. He did not notice that Lilly


    and Crawford were gone. Though he spoke lightly earlier, he remained extremely vignt.


    Cloud knew he could not always rely on Crawford, Ancestor, and Lilly. Eventually, I had to deal with


    everything alone. So, I hoped to adapt quickly to life in the underworld and the trials of cultivation.


    The demonic beast had initially been wary of Lilly and Crawford Ancestor, but it hesitated when it


    realized that these two terrifying figures had left. What did this mean? Had they truly gone?


    The demonic beast sniffed the air but detected no trace of their presence. So, this newbie was not


    allied with them? In that case, I had nothing to worry about!


    The demonic beast stared at Cloud and seemed excited. He is a new novice ghost with an


    exceptionally strong power different from ordinary ghosts! He is a valuable resource!


    Without hesitation, the demonic beast lunged at Cloud.


    Cloud had already prepared to dodge when he saw the demonic beast''s eyes turn blood-red. The next


    moment, it pounced as expected.


    Cloud rolled to the side just in time to evade the demonic beast''s attack, but his clothes were torn open.


    Cloud got back on his feet immediately and continued to evade as he moved to the other side. The


    demonic beast followed him, and its sharp ws grazed Cloud’s neck. At that moment, Cloud felt his


    neck bleeding.


    He reached up and realized that his neck had been cut halfway. If I were still human, he would have


    been dead by now. The demonic beast is much more formidable than I had thought! Crawford Ancestor


    had even mentioned that it was the weakest demonic beast living on the outskirts of Mount Everest.


    But this demonic beast almost killed me!


    Cloud was drenched in sweat and had time to dwell on it. The demonic beast had guessed his


    movement and was about to lunge at him.


    Lilly and Crawford Ancestor were about to help Cloud when they saw what had happened.


    Just as the demonic beast was about to pounce again, a deep gunshot rang out, and the demonic


    beast copsed with a loud thud.


    Cloud continued to pant heavily. At that critical moment, the demonic beast had nearly bitten off my


    head! It was so close!


    Cloud was trembling as he retrieved his bullet. I only had seven bullets, and I had to make sure to

    recover each one after firing it. In the underworld, bullets didn''t go to waste. So, I could use them again


    as long as I picked them up.


    As Cloud loaded his bullets, a dark shadow suddenly fell over him. Cloud looked up and found out that


    it was a man in green robes with a gaunt face. He was quite emaciated as well. He nced at Cloud


    and then at the demonic beast lying at his feet.


    Then, the man eximed excitedly, "What a hiker beast! I''ve been stuck at the Ghost lord'' early stage


    for twenty years... This hiker beast might help me!" I am so lucky to find such a demonic beast when I


    am injured!


    Cloud frowned and said, "I took down that beast."


    The man paused, thenughed dismissively. Then he said, "Alright, I know you did it. You''re lucky to


    have the chance to impress me. Others don''t even get a chance to tter me." A small, awakened


    novice ghost like him dared to talk this way? I had already reached the Ghost Lord''s realm! How could


    he disrespect me? No other ghosts would dare disrespect me! Who did he think he was?


    "Hey, what weapon did you just use? Show it to me." The man demanded and snatched Cloud''s gun


    without warning.


    Cloud waspletely taken off guard. This ghost lord''s techniques were truly enigmatic. At that


    moment, I keenly felt the gap between myself and the Ghost lord.


    Cloud was infuriated but said coldly, "Give it back to me."


    However, the man stuffed the gun into his own bag of holding and sneered. Give it back? Dream on. As


    a ghost lord, everything was mine when I took it! I had never returned anything I had taken! If he had


    the guts, he could ask the Hell Rulers to make him give it back!
