Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 17 Li Hui VS Ye Zhen
"Can I grant you a request?"

This time, it was Ye Zhen who hesitated.

"What? Are you scared?"

Li Hui continued to provoke, "The number one ghost tamer in Asia, known as Ye Wudi, doesn't even dare to agree to this? Besides, I've already made it clear that I won't make any demands that exceed your capabilities."

It was an obvious provocation tactic, which might not have worked on anyone else, but it was exceptionally effective on people like Ye Zhen.

"It's just a mere request, I, Ye, will accept it. With my strength, what does it matter if I have to go through fire and water? It's nothing to me, what is there to fear?"

Ye Zhen looked confident.

Of course he wasn't afraid. His hesitation was simply due to his status as an administrator of the paranormal forum.

After all, with his abilities, even if Li Hui asked him to take a stroll through an S-level supernatural event, it wouldn't be a big problem. Even if he couldn't handle it, he could still get away unscathed.

But other people on the paranormal forum can't do it.

Li Hui said he wouldn't mention anything that he couldn't do, but if he mentioned something that required a large number of people to complete, wouldn't that mean the other people on the paranormal forum would be in danger?
Ye is a well-known man of integrity; he will do whatever he promises, no matter how difficult it may be. That's why Ye had some reservations at first.

But now that people are already teasing me like this, if I don't respond, wouldn't that be saying I'm scared?

But would Ye Zhen be afraid?

The results are obvious.

"Don't say I, Ye, am bullying a newcomer. Use whatever means you have, or you'll have no choice but to surrender the moment I make a move."

"I'll let you go first, so even if word gets out, no one in the industry will gossip that I'm bullying the weak. You... eh?"

boom!
Before Ye Zhen could finish speaking, Li Hui's punch, imbued with the supernatural power of a three-story bus, landed heavily on him.

Suddenly.

Ye Zhen was sent flying by a tremendous force, his body arcing through the air as he crashed towards the other side of the street.

The clouds in the sky closed, and the sunlight that had been falling disappeared instantly. Ye Zhen's own supernatural abilities seemed to subside at this moment.

Seeing this, Li Hui showed no joy on his face, but rather a look of vigilance. He naturally did not believe that Ye Zhen could be suppressed so easily.

The scapegoat is too overpowered; it's a concept-level vengeful ghost, and its level of terror is definitely above S-class.

To suppress it instantly, one would need to replicate the supernatural power of coffin nails.

as predicted.

next moment.

Ye Zhen's voice came from the other side of the street.

"Not bad, the supernatural power contained in that punch is quite impressive. I knew I wasn't wrong. You're much stronger than Xiao Fang from my WeChat Moments!"

Ye Zhen showed no anger at Li Hui's sudden attack, his voice calm, as if he were commenting on a junior.

Subsequently.

Under Li Hui's gaze.

With a cold expression, Ye Zhen stood up from the ground, his fighting spirit growing stronger. A ray of sunlight shone down from the sky once more, as if draping him in a golden battle armor.

If he replaced those cartoon pajamas with other clothes, coupled with his handsome face, his charisma might be even more outstanding.

Ye Zhen continued:

"It's disrespectful to come back without reciprocating, so why don't you take a punch from me and give it a try!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Zhen's figure vanished from Li Hui's sight, as if he were a phantom, as if he had never existed at all.

But in the next moment.

Ye Zhen appeared directly in front of Li Hui.

This method of action is incredibly bizarre; it belongs to the Ghost Realm!

Without saying a word, Ye Zhen, who suddenly appeared, threw a punch at Li Hui.

His punching posture was very standard, completely different from Li Hui's, much more professional, as if he had specially trained in boxing.

"So fast!"

Li Hui's expression tightened, and his face became serious. His reaction speed was not fast enough to dodge the punch, so he had no choice but to take it head-on.

However, Li Hui was clearly not one to suffer a loss. The moment he realized he couldn't dodge, he launched a counterattack, striking Ye Zhen's chest with his right hand as well.

boom!
Click~

The two men's fists struck each other almost simultaneously. Their hands contained powerful supernatural energy, and the immense force was beyond what a normal person should possess. As if they had been hit hard by a speeding car, the two men were sent flying backward at the same time.

However, the two attacked different parts of the body.

Ye Zhen struck Li Hui's shoulder, because he had said beforehand that it was just a friendly spar and would not result in death, so he did not hit any vital organs.

That's just how honest I am!

Li Hui's punch landed squarely on Ye Zhen's chest, without holding back at all; this punch contained the full force of his entire body.

"Hi~"

Li Hui was the first to come to his senses. Although the vengeful ghost that Ye Zhen had stored in his hand was terrifying, its supernatural power was not enough to affect him. However, the enormous force still caused one of his arms to dislocate and break instantly.

After all, he is now just an ordinary person with a normal body. It is quite normal for his arm to dislocate or break if he is hit by this kind of force.

at the same time.

the other side.

Ye Zhen has also recovered.

"What's going on? I get hurt myself when I hit you?"

With the help of the scapegoat's supernatural power, Ye Zhen was instantly transferred away from the attack he was suffering, and he was full of energy without any injuries.

However, he was somewhat doubtful at this moment, and looked at Li Hui as he fell into deep thought.

During his exchange of punches with Li Hui, he experienced two supernatural collisions: one from Li Hui's punch and the other when he hit Li Hui's arm.

The moment Ye Zhen was hit by Li Hui, he felt as if he were colliding head-on with a speeding vehicle. With Li Hui's punch, he was hit by the 'car' twice in just one second.

With the two supernatural events overlapping, Ye Zhen even felt that the supernatural power of the scapegoat he was controlling subsided for a moment.

This is scary!
Ye Zhen had never encountered a supernatural being that could suppress the substitute ghost that had killed him.

Fortunately, the scapegoat was indeed terrifying enough, and gradually recovered, transferring the damage he had suffered to the scapegoat.

"The supernatural power he wields is ridiculously strong; an ordinary vengeful ghost would be silenced after taking a single punch. But its weaknesses are equally obvious..."

Ye Zhen glanced at Li Hui a few times before making his assessment.

The outcome was already decided, and Ye Zhen did not make another move.

Li Hui's fatal flaw was his ordinary human body, even with the powerful supernatural protection he possessed.

If a life-or-death battle were to take place now, Li Hui would be the one to die!

Li Hui clearly knew this as well. Having read the original novel, he was well aware of how powerful the vengeful spirit Ye Zhen controlled was. Therefore, before the battle even began, Li Hui had already foreseen that such an outcome might occur.

Perhaps if the supernatural power of the bus itself were higher, high enough to suppress the scapegoat, then there would still be a chance. But the moment the supernatural power of the three-story bus could no longer completely suppress the scapegoat, the outcome was already decided.

"you win."

Li Hui spoke, his tone calm, showing no sign of defeat.

A temporary victory or defeat doesn't matter; the one who laughs last is the winner, and Li Hui, with his phone tattoo, clearly has the confidence to be that final winner.

Give him some time to develop, and Ye Wudi will eventually become Ye Xiaodi.

Thinking of this, Li Hui couldn't help but glance at the back of his hand.

The tattoo, shaped like an Android phone, was clearly visible, but to his disappointment, it remained completely still.

Li Hui was also very envious and tempted by Ye Zhen's supernatural ability to become a scapegoat.

If the phone tattoo could replicate the supernatural presence on Ye Zhen's body at this moment, then his disadvantage would be instantly eliminated, and the outcome of this battle would be reversed.

Q: How good is Ye Zhen's scapegoat ability?
