Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 490 3 wish

In the silent cave, Ji Anni's roar was particularly shocking and powerful surrounded by heavy echoes. Several pieces of rubble from the cave ceiling fell on Ji Anni, but she was completely unaware of it. She stared at the Ghost King, as if she wanted to stare a hole in his body.

"Only the stubbornness hasn't changed at all." The Ghost King shook his head and sighed, his tone seemed to be slightly softened. Perhaps Ji Anni's actions vaguely touched his memories of Xue Lan. Xue Lan's stubbornness and persistence were even worse than Ji Anni's, otherwise the Ghost King would not have allowed her to be his concubine in the human world.

After calming down a little, the Ghost King raised his eyes and stared at Ji Anni carefully. Suddenly, he found that the faint halo emitting from her body revealed a sense of familiarity, and his heart suddenly beat violently.

"Fox beads?" The Ghost King finally realized that Ji Anni was emitting the aura of the Snow Mist Fox Beads.

The reason why Ji Anni was able to come back to life was because she absorbed half of Xue Lan's fox bead. The other half was robbed by Cang Gui and handed over to Yun Zhen, now the Ghost King.

"Hand over Xue Lan's fox bead." The ghost king reached out to Ji Anni to ask for the fox bead, and his expression became extremely cold again. "Xue Lan's fox bead should not be left in a human's body, give it back to me..."

The ghost king selfishly thought that as long as he combined the two fox beads into one, he could piece together Xue Lan's complete soul to accompany him. Even though this method could not save Xue Lan who had already died, and was just a simple self-consolation, he still persisted in this obsession.

Ji Anni felt the strong killing intent emanating from the ghost king and cautiously shrank back a little. The Cang Ghost flapped its wings and blocked Ji Anni firmly behind it. Facing the king who was formed by the spiritual power of the world, who could call the wind and rain and control the magic dragon, Ji Anni was just lying when she said she was not afraid.

Even so, she still did not escape, but stared at the Ghost King stubbornly, trying to keep her voice calm. "No matter what you say, I will not give it back to you. Xue Lan personally agreed to give it to me, so it should belong to me. What do you want the Fox Pearl for?"

The Ghost King sneered and said, "Xue Lan is my bride. Even if she dies, her soul should belong to me. Of course I should ask you for it."

At this time, Cang Gui answered Ji Anni's doubts: "The half fox bead I took from you that day is in his hand. He wanted to collect the fox beads, just for comfort." Cang Gui did that to save Ji Anni's life. If Ji Anni really absorbed the whole fox bead, I'm afraid her body would have been broken by Xue Lan's powerful demonic power.

As he spoke, the ghost king's body moved a few steps closer. "Although the owner of this body begged me to help you before he died, after seeing you today, I realized that you have all the shortcomings that I hate the most - I advise you to be obedient and don't force me to do anything."

Ji Anni bit her lip, feeling a sharp pain in her heart. She knew that the other person was not Yun Zhen, but seeing him say that he hated her with Yun Zhen's face still made her eyes sore. Ji Anni lowered her eyelashes and answered firmly in a low voice: "Unless you kill me, I will not listen to you."

"Well, since you want to die, I will grant your wish."

After saying that, the Ghost King waved his long sleeves, and suddenly a demonic wind blew up, making Ji Anni unable to open her eyes. Cang Gui only had time to shout "Be careful" before Ji Anni was pulled up from the ground by the Ghost King and lifted into the air again.

After a scream of "Ah——", scarlet blood immediately oozed out of Ji Anni's chest.

At that moment, the ghost king's nails had grown four or five inches longer, as sharp as a sword. Now the tip of the nail has pierced into Ji Annie's chest.

Because the wound was small and her nerves were all tense, Ji Annie didn't feel much pain. However, the fear of having her heart ripped out made her body as stiff as a stone.

The Cang Ghost, who had just reacted, flew up immediately and mercilessly opened its sharp claws towards the Ghost King. But the Ghost King just waved his sleeves, and the Cang Ghost was slapped into the corner like a fly.

"Cang Gui..." Ji Annie looked at Cang Gui with heartache as he struggled hard in the corner and tried to stand up.

"You should worry about yourself first!" The ghost king's mouth was slightly crooked, revealing a sinister expression that would never appear on Yun Zhen's face. "I'll give you one last chance..."

"Don't threaten me. If you want to kill me, go ahead. But the fox demon queen will never forgive you when she finds out."

Seeing Ji Anni using Xue Lan to threaten him, the Ghost King couldn't help but sneer even more bitterly. "What qualifications do you have to say that? Do you know Xue Lan well?"

After that, he inserted his nails a little deeper, and Ji Anni's limbs twitched violently in pain. She raised her head with the last bit of strength she had and said hoarsely, "She is willing to give me the fox beads because I can help her realize her unfulfilled wish, but what can you do for her? You keep saying that you love her, but what you do is just the desire for exclusivity. Even if I give you the fox beads, you are only satisfying my longing for her. What can I do for her?"

The ghost king has been in the supreme position since his birth. No monster dares to disobey him, let alone a small human. Under Ji Anni's ruthless accusation, he was not angry, but was aroused to win. He suddenly didn't want to kill Ji Anni anymore, but wanted to see what she would look like after her stubbornness was tamed by him and the thorns on her body were removed one by one.

The blood from Ji Anni's chest dripped onto the ground along the Ghost King's nails, and soon formed a small pool at the Ghost King's feet. The Ghost King frowned as he looked at Ji Anni, whose face gradually turned pale and whose breathing became increasingly rapid. After a brief consideration, the Ghost King finally pulled his nails out of Ji Anni's body.

Ji Anni fell to the ground with a "bang", and her eyes were full of stars. She covered her chest tightly, and felt the half fox bead embedded in her heart emitting warm heat. The bleeding stopped quickly, and the wound healed quickly, only a trace of pain and fear remained in her mind. She vaguely felt that her vitality had become stronger after her rebirth - this was all thanks to Xue Lan's power.

The crisis has not been resolved. The Ghost King, who is close at hand, still said in a threatening tone, "Do you think Xue Lan has any unfulfilled wishes? Even if I kill you, I can help her realize it. In this way, she won't blame me."

"You can't." Ji Anni blurted out.

The ghost king's eyes shot towards her. He couldn't believe that a tiny and weak human dared to challenge his tolerance limit again and again.

Ji Anni took a breath and continued, "You only have hatred for humans in your heart now, so you can't fulfill the wish of the Fox Demon Queen. The Fox Demon Queen has a kind heart, and her wish is to build a new world where humans and demons can coexist."

"Humans and demons living together?" The Ghost King couldn't help but sneer. He had never heard of such a ridiculous idea.

"If you really want to help the Fox Goddess fulfill her wish, the first thing you need to do is to stop this rainstorm that is wiping out all life, and prove that you still have kindness and compassion in your heart."

"You don't need to teach me what to do!" The Ghost King roared violently.

A powerful demonic aura rushed towards her, almost suffocating Ji Anni and causing her to faint.

At this moment, the Ghost King suddenly looked up in the direction where Ji Anni came from. "Someone is coming." He could sense that outside the cave, there was a person who knew magic and was casting a spell to find his trace. "They are quite courageous. As long as they get one step closer, I will make sure they never come back."

Ji Anni's current magic power is not enough to sense who is outside the cave like the Ghost King, but she can guess by intuition that the people who come are probably Liuguang and Xuanjizi. Even though Liuguang is an enemy, Ji Anni still can't bear to let his guards die in vain.

"Cang Gui, are you okay?" Ji Anni crawled to Cang Gui in the corner, "Can you help me stop the people outside from coming in?"

Cang Gui stood up shakily, staring at Ji Anni in surprise and confusion. At this moment, Ji Anni was the one who needed protection the most, but she deliberately sent him away.

"Don't worry about me. If he wants to kill me, even if you are here, you can't protect me." Ji Anni lifted the Cang Gui into the air with both hands and motioned for it to fly away. The Cang Gui flapped its wings in her hands, lowered its head and looked at Ji Anni worriedly. Ji Anni smiled at it, as if she had made a decision in her heart.

Seeing this, Cang Gui had to harden his heart, flapped his wings violently, and flew towards the cave entrance with all his might.

Watching Cang Gui's figure disappear into the darkness, Ji Annie turned to the Ghost King and said, "Another purpose of my trip is to find out what exactly you want in order to stop the rain. Now I finally understand - it turns out that you want Xue Lan's fox beads. How difficult is that? I'm glad that this is something I can do alone..." She smiled and gently stroked her heart with her right hand.

"Ghost King, since Yun Zhen is dead, I have no intention of living alone. But I promised the Fox Goddess that I would use the life she gave me to fulfill her wish. Since you love her, why don't you help her? After the wish is fulfilled, you don't have to do it yourself. I will take out the fox beads and give them back to you with both hands."

Every word she said was full of hatred, and it sounded powerful, coupled with her firm gaze and unwavering expression. At that moment, the Ghost King was actually shocked by the aura emanating from Ji Anni.

The Ghost King quickly recovered and asked with a sneer, "Humph, when will Xue Lan's wish be fulfilled? The idea of ​​humans and demons living together is too naive. If you can't realize it in your lifetime, then don't I have to wait until the end of time?"

Ji Anni lowered her head and thought for a while. "In that case, let's do this..." She raised three fingers. "You just need to help me fulfill three wishes, and then I will give you the fox beads."

"With just three wishes, you can build a new world? One of the reasons why I hate humans is their arrogance." The Ghost King sighed and shook his head, but his expression was slightly smiling. Just when he was about to drown in the sorrow of losing Xue Lan, Ji Anni's intrusion suddenly distracted him, brought him new stimulation, and made his dead heart gradually come back to life.

Ji Anni stared at him and asked, "Did you agree?"

The Ghost King raised his voice: "Okay, then I will help you realize three wishes within one year, and then you take out the fox beads and return them to me." As he spoke, a cold light flashed in his deep eyes, and Ji Annie's heart suddenly felt like it was cut by a sharp knife. Only then did she realize the madness of this agreement.

Even she herself didn't know whether this life-and-death gamble was a desperate attempt to survive, or a desperate attempt to die...

In a trance, she still felt that the ghost king's voice and smile vaguely reflected Yun Zhen's shadow. As long as Yun Zhen could accompany her, even if it was just an empty shell, it was enough to make Ji Anni feel comforted, as if she was re-injected with the courage to face the future.
