Chapter 279: Pretending to Be a Ghost
At this moment, Jing Ruoxue stood up and looked at Chu Jiang. "If we team up, maybe we can break out of this Ghost Domain."
"Uh~" Before she finished speaking, her body suddenly ignited with a fiery blaze resembling blood. The blood-red flames had no warmth, giving off an incredibly chilling sensation.
Ghost Bride turned her head to "look" at Jing Ruoxue, as if she had set her sights back on her target.
Jing Ruoxue gritted her teeth, wanting to draw her sword, but Chu Jiang shouted, "Sit down first!"
Jing Ruoxue tried to hold back when she heard that, but the power of the ghost in her awakened. However, her awakening was very weak, only one hand, even weaker than when Chu Jiang faced the Black Sun.
The reason for this is that the way Young Fate Giver and Greater Heavenly Executioner inherit the ghost is different.
The ghost of the Great Fate Giver truly merges into the bloodline, and Jing Ruoxue only "invited the god to possess her" not long ago.
To be precise, it was after seeing the video that Chu Jiang sent out and recognizing that this generation’s Chu’s Jiang has already appeared in this world.
It was because it took a lot of time to merge the ancestral ghost into her body that Jing Ruoxue only came to find Chu Jiang now.
However, at this moment, under the erosion of this strange flame, that gray-white illusory power began to spread from Jing Ruoxue’s right hand…
At this time, Xu Shengtian also became active in helping Chu Jiang. He shouted, "Brother! How about you finish the three bows to the bride first?"
"Then according to the customs, the groom and bride are taken to their bridal chamber, but after drinking the wine, the groom has to come out and socialize with the guests. Only after the music ends and the guests leave, will the groom return to the bridal chamber to spend the night with the bride."
This speech was clear enough. They couldn’t escape now because the bride was still watching.
After Ghost Bride is taken into the bridal chamber, Chu Jiang can take advantage of the opportunity to accompany the guests and lead all the living people to run away together.
Chu Jiang thought for a moment and realized that there was actually a chance of success.
Because of Xu Shengtian’s method, he followed the killer’s pattern. If Ghost Bride really follows this process, then the groom and the bride will definitely have a time when they are separated.
But if that happens, Chu Jiang would really have to marry a ghost and become a couple. He was having difficulty overcoming this obstacle in his heart.
Unless not doing so means death, Chu Jiang will try his best not to reach this point.
Seeing that Chu Jiang didn’t come over, Ghost Bride took the initiative to float towards him, and the crisis struck again…
Surrounded by a group of ghosts, facing Ghost Bride’s relentless pursuit, Chu Jiang forced himself to calm down and think about what abilities he currently possessed, what seals he had, and how much help he could get from the Ghost Diary.
Suddenly, Chu Jiang thought of a possibility.
He saw his right hand starting to bleed, a large amount of bright red blood dripping and gradually shaping into a human-like figure.
This is not enough, Chu Jiang touched the Ghost Diary with his other hand, using the power of the Imitation Ghost.
With the ability of the Imitation Ghost, he made this "blood person" imitate his appearance, including features, expression, height, and clothes, every detail was exactly the same!
Then, a strange scene appeared on the scene, two Chu Jiangs appeared side by side in the courtyard, holding hands. From the outside, it was impossible to tell which one was real and which one was fake.
Even Zhang Dafu and Xu Shengtian, who witnessed the whole process, were stunned for a moment. Since Chu Jiang didn’t change his position, they could temporarily determine that the one on the left should be real.
But then, both Chu Jiangs disappeared into the shadows underground and reappeared. Now, they couldn’t tell which one was real and which one was fake at all.
Chu Jiang had a simple idea. Since the Ghost Bride was fixated on him, what would it choose if there were two of him?
The Ghost Bride, who was just a few steps away from Chu Jiang, suddenly hesitated. It turned its head and looked at the Chu Jiang on the left, then looked at the Chu Jiang on the right, seeming unsure which one to choose.
This made Chu Jiang breathe a sigh of relief. It’s good that it’s not the kind of fickle ghost who wants them all. Otherwise, it wouldn’t matter if Chu Jiang created a hundred of himself.
Of course, we must also praise the Imitation Ghost for achieving such an effect.
Even if it can only borrow half the power of this ghost, it is enough to deceive others and even mimic an existence that is identical to Chu Jiang, even in its breath.
You must know that the complete version of the Imitation Ghost, if it mimics Chu Jiang, can even mimic the ghosts that Chu Jiang possesses, and can also synchronize with Chu Jiang’s memories and thoughts.
Only then can it achieve the so-called "perfect imitation," with the same way of speaking and acting as the original person.
Alright, now that Chu Jiang has posed a challenge, what will the Ghost Bride do?
Under the gaze of everyone in the courtyard, the Ghost Bride fell into a long period of silence, staring motionless at the two Chu Jiangs.
During this time, Jing Ruoxue also relied on the ghost within her to gradually extinguish the burning flames on her body, surviving the Ghost Bride’s attack.
Speaking of which, if it can really pin down the other party like this, then Chu Jiang should be grateful.
But unfortunately, it’s not that simple, or rather, the Ghost Bride is not so easily fooled.
It moved again, and this time it seems to have targeted the Chu Jiang on the left side, heading towards it.
This made Chu Jiang start thinking. His real self was on the right hand side, and he couldn’t tell which one was the real Ghost Bride.
But the problem was, what should he do next?
With only the blood control ability of the Blood Hand Ghost, Chu Jiang couldn’t create a duplicate that was realistic enough. So he had to rely on the power of the Imitation Ghost.
But if he separated from his blood duplicate, he couldn’t keep the duplicate’s appearance.
In other words, it could only last for a certain amount of time. Once the supernatural power that Chu Jiang poured into the duplicate disappeared, it would turn back into a blood person.
By then, he wouldn’t be able to fool the Ghost Bride anymore.
In any case, the Ghost Bride came over, held the hand of the blood duplicate, and then…
The duplicate collapsed, splattering blood all over the ground.
Chu Jiang’s face looked a bit unpleasant. He had overlooked one thing: The Ghost Bride’s touch came with supernatural erosion. With just a duplicate, he couldn’t withstand that terrifying power.
After the clone collapsed, Ghost Bride paused for a moment, then changed direction and held Chu Jiang’s original hand again.
This made Chu Jiang once again feel the pressure from Ghost Bride.
Of course, since Chu’s Jiang has further transformed, Chu Jiang can barely hold on.
But this is not a long-term solution, because Ghost Bride dragged him back to continue the wedding ceremony.
Could it be that they have to take out that dark purple coffin and release the S-class ghost inside??
Chu Jiang felt a little helpless as this situation kept happening.
