Chapter 157: Dancing on the Edge of Death

Chu Jiang felt "touched" by this, even though he shouldn’t have had so many emotions right now.

At the same time, Chu Jiang also remembered something. Since the balance of the two ghosts, he seemed to have not been affected much by the negative effects. It couldn’t have been the curse intentionally holding back, so what could it be related to?

More and more mysteries emerged from Chu Jiang, but at the moment, he simply didn’t have the time to think about all this messy stuff.

He needed to escape! He needed to go to Lin Ancestral Hall!

The obstruction of the curse didn’t have a big effect, as Ghost Diary had already consumed a part of Chu Jiang’s chest.

Because until now, Chu Jiang’s near-death state has not been resolved.

Other parts of his body are still experiencing severe damage, and his flesh is gradually disintegrating in the flames. However, his hands have undergone a strange change and are temporarily unaffected.

Chu Jiang was thinking of using these corpse-like hands to fight back, but more changes started to appear on his body.

From within him, a flyer silently emerged, with three words boldly written on the top: Holy Word Religion.

This froze Chu Jiang’s expression. What on earth is this? Why did a long-lost flyer appear inside his body?

Chu Jiang hasn’t forgotten. After carefully reading the flyer given by the blonde nun, he considered the Holy Word Religion to be a cult, and the flyer mysteriously vanished from his hand.

Could it be that it didn’t disappear back then but rather took a form unknown to him and silently hid inside his body until now?

What is the motive of the people from Holy Word Religion? Why did they target a high school student who had just experienced supernatural events?

And why did this flyer appear at this crucial moment? What is it trying to accomplish?

While Chu Jiang stared at the white pamphlet, the dark-skinned boy also shifted his gaze and looked at the pamphlet.

This made Chu Jiang even more surprised. The ghost in front of him, who was an S-class ghost, was actually interested in a piece of paper.

It is worth noting that besides his prey, Chu Jiang had only seen Black Sun and focused on the Ghost Diary. Even from just now until now, Black Sun had been looking at the diary. Suddenly, it shifted its attention.

"We meet again. Do you remember what I said? This pamphlet will be helpful to you."

From the pamphlet came a voice that was familiar and yet strange to Chu Jiang.

This female voice seemed to be the voice of the blonde nun from before.

However, in this clear and pleasant tone, there was a hint of temptation or enchantment that had never been there before. When people heard the first sentence, they couldn’t help but want to hear the next sentence.

The female voice continued to speak, "It seems that you have encountered a great crisis, to the point of being in critical condition, barely clinging to life."

"I can help you, or rather, the lord can help you."

"If you swear right now, you will join the Holy Word Religion, you will believe in our Lord with all your heart and soul, and you will devote your life to listening to God’s whispers."

"Then, God will shower you with grace and you will become His cherished child…"

"Shut up!" Chu Jiang frowned tightly, another opportunist taking advantage of the situation! This person from the cult clearly had ill intentions from the very beginning.

As soon as Chu Jiang said "shut up," Black Sun and Ghost Diary simultaneously attacked the leaflets!

Those who didn’t know would have thought Chu Jiang had commanded them to do it.

To be honest, Chu Jiang could understand Black Sun’s action. After all, this seemed to be the power of a suspected S-class ghost intruding into its Ghost Domain, which was a provocation.

But Chu Jiang couldn’t understand why Ghost Diary was taking action. The leaflets didn’t seem to pose a threat to the dying diary holder.

Therefore, in theory, there should not have been any conflict between Ghost Diary and the leaflets.

Could it be… that it didn’t want Chu Jiang to become a follower of that "god"?

The flyers were immediately set on fire by black flames and pierced by dozens of dark iron chains.

But surprisingly, the flyers were still in their original condition, and the woman’s voice inside didn’t disappear.

"Make a decision quickly, or you will either die at the hands of Black Sun or be consumed by your own diary."

"If you join us, you will gain a high position and acquire great power."

"At the same time, you will be able to maintain your sanity instead of becoming a confused servant."

"Believe me, I am a living example, and you can even have me, isn’t that good…"

These words reminded Chu Jiang of the phrase, "We need a pure yet indulgent body to contain your sins."

But Chu Jiang didn’t respond. While Black Sun was multitasking, dealing with him, the Ghost Diary, and the flyers, his face twisted, his teeth clenched, and his withered hands exerted their utmost strength!

These eerie hands unexpectedly twisted Black Sun’s hands in the opposite direction, turning them into a twisted spiral.

In the end, Chu Jiang even forcefully broke free from the other person’s hands. He clenched his fists tightly, allowing the power of Blood Hand Ghost and Dark Left Hand to cover him, and fiercely struck the black boy’s chest.

"Boom~!" Like a beating drum, the boy’s chest caved in, and a huge circular shockwave emerged from behind him, leaving a gap in the Sun Flame Wheel behind him! It lingered for a long time.

If it weren’t for the Ghost Diary’s chains forcibly locking Black Sun, the dazzling and sinister sun in the sky would have been sent flying by Chu Jiang’s fists.

"Let go!" Chu Jiang tightly gripped the chains, cursing this damn Ghost Diary for keeping him in this near-death state, slowly devouring him.

Just then, the vengeful ghost seemed to lose patience. She muttered and cursed incessantly, her body melting like mercury, merging into the part where Ghost Diary and Chu Jiang connected.

The black boy continued to stretch out his hands expressionlessly, while his body rapidly healed all its injuries.

Ghost Diary seemed a bit scorched, slightly detaching from Chu Jiang’s body.

Taking this chance, Chu Jiang immediately tried to break free from the control of Ghost Diary and create distance from Black Sun.

But at the same time, the black boy’s speed skyrocketed!

It clenched its fists tightly, imitating Chu Jiang’s appearance, and fiercely hit his chest.

Chu Jiang couldn’t escape, so he had to change direction with all his strength, but he still got hit.

If it weren’t for Ghost Diary blocking these punches, this hit might have turned Chu Jiang’s body to ashes, leaving only those eerie hands.

Nevertheless, Chu Jiang still coughed up blood and flew backwards like a burning cannonball.

During this process, Ghost Diary separated from Chu Jiang’s chest. It seemed to dislike the interference of devouring curses and grudges.

After swallowing the curse completely in a few moves, Ghost Diary retrieved all the dark iron chains and quickly flew towards Chu Jiang’s location.

Even the flyer persistently chased after them, even though it was still burning with endless black fire.
