Chapter 154 Extreme Danger

Chu Jiang shook his head. This couldn't be blamed on Yun Changfeng. If he had let the Sun God take control of his body a little later, with his knowledge, he probably would have been able to figure out that infected people couldn't be exposed to sunlight.

But the problem is that Yun Changfeng must have been in a great hurry at the time.

As for Zhang Xiaogui's situation, Chu Jiang wasn't quite sure. He could only guess that the other party probably didn't run out of the rented room immediately, after all, he was a ghost master, and shouldn't be as pathetic as his assistant Luo Yifeng.

Of course, Yun Changfeng also made a wrong judgment because of this.

After some logical deduction, Chu Jiang silently drifted to the vicinity of the Sun God and carefully observed its condition.

If his guess is correct, then the red embroidered ball should still be with Yun Changfeng.

But here's the problem: Yun Changfeng didn't know Chu Jiang wanted this, so he probably didn't give the Day Wanderer any orders beforehand.

In that case, if Chu Jiang wants to get the Red Embroidered Ball, he will likely have to fight the Day Wanderer.

This gave Chu Jiang a headache. On the one hand, he wanted to face the Black Sun in his best condition; on the other hand, the Day Wanderer didn't seem like someone to be trifled with.

If the two sides were to fight, Chu Jiang really wasn't confident of winning, since he didn't even know what his opponent's abilities were.

Moreover, this wandering deity, to put it grandly, is a fierce god; to put it bluntly, he is a ghost messenger from the underworld, which is incomparable to ordinary ghosts.

Wait a minute, Chu Jiang remembered something.

Yun Changfeng's message to himself was: Come find me.

If Chu Jiang directly confronts the Day Wanderer, he shouldn't be attacked, since Yun Changfeng should have considered this aspect.

Thinking of this, Chu Jiang did not hesitate. Time was of the essence, so he floated directly in front of the Sun God and tried to make it stop.

As soon as Chu Jiang stepped forward, the Sun-Wandering God indeed stopped and did not attack Chu Jiang.

It stared blankly at Chu Jiang's face and even nodded.

Nodding? Chu Jiang was full of questions. Why are you nodding at me? Are we that close? Or did Yun Changfeng make you do it?

However, regardless of the circumstances, the fact that the other party showed a relatively friendly attitude is a good thing.

"Can you understand what I'm saying?" Chu Jiang tried to communicate.

The day-roaming deity remained motionless, his expression numb and cold.

Left with no other option, Chu Jiang tried to find some clues from the other party. Could it be that Yun Changfeng had just run out in such a muddle?

Soon, Chu Jiang noticed that there seemed to be some writing on the scroll in the left hand of the Day Wanderer.

He recognized it; it was written in traditional Chinese characters and consisted of two lines. The first line read: "Try to protect Zhang Xiaogui, Zhao Dahe, and Lin Dongcai."

The second line reads: Help Chu Jiang do something that isn't excessive.

Goodness, it actually says so, is it to prevent the daytime wandering spirits from causing trouble?

However, it must be said that Yun Changfeng still cherishes his life. He did not write "do everything he can to help Chu Jiang", but only wrote "help with one thing", which he felt was not excessive.

In this way, Chu Jiang would not be able to order the Sun God to fight against the Black Sun with him.

In Yun Changfeng's view, any contact with an S-class vengeful ghost, regardless of the form, carries a 99% chance of death.

Although he and Chu Jiang were friends, it was only a friendly relationship where they had met once and he felt that Chu Jiang had investment potential.

You could ask Yun Changfeng to risk his life for Chu Jiang, or even for the entire Luohe City, but he couldn't do it.

This also shows that Yun Changfeng was confident he would survive to the end.

I'll survive to the end, given my current bizarre state.

Because, generally speaking, a ghost's instincts do not include harming other ghosts.

If the Black Sun treats the Day Wanderer as one of its own kind, and if the Black Sun doesn't possess traits like "Gluttony" or "Devour," then Yun Changfeng might still be able to get away with it.

Of course, if things really develop to the worst possible situation, the people around Yun Changfeng will definitely die, regardless of whether they are exposed to the sun or not.

Because Yun Changfeng can't save them; to save them would mean facing the Black Sun head-on.

Therefore, Yun Changfeng wrote "protect as much as possible" in the scroll, rather than "protect with all his might" or "protect at all costs".

It can be said that Yun Changfeng prioritized his own life, and under the premise of saving his own life, he was willing to bring kindness to those around him.

But if he really can't guarantee his life, he will prioritize protecting himself.

Chu Jiang wasn't surprised by this, nor did he blame the other party. Helping was a favor, not an obligation; they had never been brothers who would risk their lives together.

It's just a matter of different choices. Perhaps this is why Yun Changfeng has always been unwilling to join Research Institute No. 21...

"I'd like to borrow that red embroidered ball from you, the one you call the 'Death Delay Ball'."

"If it's just borrowing, it's not too much to ask of you, is it?"

"It's a pity I don't have any sealed items that I can use as collateral for you, otherwise I could use them as collateral."

The Ghost Diary cannot be given away, and the curse in the Ju-on videotape has now transferred to Chu Jiang; this means that the videotape is now just an empty shell, and of course it cannot be considered a complete seal.

As for amulets and the like, they are not equivalent at all.

The wandering god stared intently at Chu Jiang, neither nodding nor shaking his head. Chu Jiang wasn't even sure if the other party understood him.

Chu Jiang remained silent. He stretched out his right hand and used his blood to create a model of a red embroidered ball.

"This is it. You lend it to me; I'll return it to you later." Chu Jiang gestured.

But the day-roaming god remained motionless, staring at him like a fool.

This hardened Chu Jiang, made him clench his fists, and gave him the urge to hit people—no, to hit ghosts.

"If you keep this up, I'm going to have to take matters into my own hands." Chu Jiang didn't have time to waste arguing with a ghost.

As he spoke, he actually tried to reach out his hand. If all else failed, he would have to snatch it by force. In any case, he was determined to get his hands on this red embroidered ball today!

Suddenly, the Sun-Wandering Spirit moved. Before Chu Jiang could touch it, it loosened its scroll, took out a palm-sized red embroidered ball from its pocket, and threw it behind Chu Jiang!

You damn well... Chu Jiang didn't have time to argue with this ghost anymore; it's a good thing that he's willing to give it.

Chu Jiang turned around and was about to chase after the red embroidered ball, but as soon as he turned around, his expression changed drastically!

The sun in the sky moved!

To be precise, the boy in the black sun slowly opened his eyes. They were a pair of cold, lifeless, and icy eyes, devoid of any emotion. They were like a pair of black-gold lava, dazzling yet sinister.

The moment their eyes met, Chu Jiang's body stiffened. Danger, danger, extreme danger! Whether it was his instinct as a living person or the restlessness of the two ghosts within him, it all conveyed this feeling to him at all times.

Chu Jiang then realized that the Day Wanderer had not understood his words at all, nor was he going to lend him the Red Sleeve Ball. The Day Wanderer was simply using this sealing artifact to protect himself!

What is this? Even ghosts use sealing artifacts. Did Yun Changfeng's instinct to save his life drive him to do this?

Regardless, things have gotten complicated. Chu Jiang's prediction was wildly wrong. The time was four o'clock in the afternoon, the black sun was awakening...

Chapter 155 Using a Tiger to Devour a Wolf

The black sun did not awaken until it reached adulthood as Chu Jiang had predicted. It awoke prematurely and now appears to be only about fifteen or sixteen years old in human form.

Moreover, after opening his eyes, the boy's curled-up body naturally stretched out.

As it stretched out, the light of the black sun suddenly expanded by a circle!

This also caused a new change within the Ghost Realm; all the Blackfire Skeletons raised their hands, seemingly in prayer to their master.

Then, as if receiving some kind of command, the skeletons no longer only moved in the areas illuminated by the sun; they stepped into the darkness, they sought out all living things, and they themselves became torches!

This was exactly the worst-case scenario Chu Jiang had anticipated. Even if the Black Sun just stood there without making a move, the entire population of Luohe City would soon be wiped out!

Chu Jiang gritted his teeth. He didn't have time to save others. Now, the only way to save the people of Luohe City was to implement his plan as quickly as possible.

The theater's ghost realm opened, and Chu Jiang flew and jumped at top speed. In almost a breath, he caught up with the red embroidered ball thrown by the Day Wanderer and held it in his hand.

The Sun Wanderer is not a real person after all. Although it retains some of the instincts of the clouds and wind, the timing of its throwing of the embroidered ball was completely wrong, as the black sun was too far away from it.

This means that the sealing mechanism is not actually working.

However, there was no doubt that the commotion here was noticed by the black sun, which immediately turned its gaze upon it after waking up.

That's not all; that black sun is falling!

This scene was very oppressive. Chu Jiang had just taken the dark red embroidered ball into his hand when he looked up and saw the sun fall to the ground, as if it were a divine punishment.

Although the Black Sun's killing patterns are unknown, there is no doubt that Chu Jiang is being targeted, and perhaps even the entire city is being targeted.

So whether the infected are killed or there is indiscriminate killing, Chu Jiang has no way out now.

Before the black sun officially descended to the ground, Chu Jiang turned around and flew at high speed towards the old town east of Luohe City.

Fortunately, the place where the day-wandering deity was discovered is not too far from the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall, so there should be a chance.

Chu Jiang's plan was simple: bring the black sun into the ancestral hall and let Old Master Lin deal with this S-class vengeful ghost!

This time, unlike the time I experienced sleep paralysis, it wasn't just a matter of entering the ancestral hall and then it was over.

Chu Jiang could only pray that the old man really existed. If he didn't take action, everyone in Luohe City would definitely be wiped out today, including Chu Jiang.

However, the plan, though seemingly simple, has two major challenges.

First, how did Chu Jiang bring the black sun to the front of the ancestral hall?

Second, how can Chu Jiang get the black sun into the ancestral hall?

Although this is essentially a problem, in the ghost realm of an S-class vengeful spirit, Chu Jiang would likely not be able to escape very far before being caught by the black sun, and would have no chance to reach the ancestral hall at all.

Secondly, even if you manage to reach the ancestral hall by chance, this ancestral hall is a place that even Ghost Diary would react violently to.

If the black sun senses danger inside, will it refrain from entering?

This is quite possible, which is why Chu Jiang went to great lengths to find Yun Changfeng and borrow the red embroidered ball from him.

Chu Jiang had no choice but to gamble; he believed the red embroidered ball could also work on S-level vengeful ghosts. Therefore, as long as he threw the red embroidered ball into the ancestral hall in front of the black sun, the ghost would "unhesitatingly" rush into the hall.

As for whether the other party could easily escape after going in, that was not something Chu Jiang could consider.

If that's the case, Chu Jiang has no choice but to accept his fate. After all, he has done everything he could and should have done.

If all else fails, we'll have to smash that thing with the Ghost Diary and see if the Black Sun will fight the Level Zero Sealed Object...

Of course, if you just throw it at them, the probability of a fight breaking out is almost zero.
