In the secret chamber on the second floor of the ghost ship.
After Xiao Buyi left behind a painting, the peaceful situation was completely destroyed.
After all, Xiao Buyi's prophecy was too shocking. Apart from Shi Qianhan, there were actually two ghosts among them!
Initially, they did not believe in these things. Even if there were really ghosts, they would not be afraid!
However, ever since they stepped onto the ghost ship, several people had died one after another. It was not an exaggeration to describe what had happened as strange. Therefore, at this moment, everyone gradually felt a chill in their hearts.
At that moment, many people looked at Ye Chen with hostility. Even Luo Tianya, Tang Yiming, and the rest still had doubts on their faces.
Facing everyone's gaze, Ye Chen was not afraid at all. Instead, he looked straight at Xiao Yuanjing and said while grinning coldly, "Have you finally revealed your true intentions? You guys have really put in a lot of effort to deal with me! "
"Deal with you?"
Xiao Yuanjing's eyes narrowed as he snorted coldly, "Ye, don't think too highly of yourself. If we wanted to deal with you, we would've attacked you when we boarded the ship. Why would we wait until now?"
Ye Chen's expression did not change, "Then what right do you have to say that I'm a ghost? Based on the so-called painting of Xiao Buyi that you guys found? "
Bai Shaoyu smirked coldly, "Then how do you explain that you're standing in the same position as the ghost in the painting? You have to know that the ghost in the painting is exactly the same as the evil ghost in the black fog outside the ghost ship. "
"That's right!"
The vampire marquis, Bruce, also chimed in, "Xiao Buyi foresaw our arrival twenty years ago. The number of people in the painting and their positions are exactly the same as ours. That shouldn't be wrong, right?"
Everyone nodded when they heard that.
Even though they didn't want to believe it, they had no choice but to admit that the third diagram Xiao Buyi had left behind was describing them. It was a scene of black mist enveloping the Ghost Ship, and they were trapped within the Ghost Ship. They were also in a secret chamber.
"And you!"
Xiao Yuanjing suddenly looked at the sword-wielding old man, "Among all of us, you were the first to step onto the second floor of the ghost ship. When we caught up, we couldn't see you anymore. Then, the ancient coffin that led to the secret chamber appeared. Xiao Shun of the Xiao family went in to investigate and died."
At this point, his gaze turned cold, "We all clearly saw that when Xiao Shun came out, he was holding your head in his hand. As soon as Xiao Shun died, you appeared. Tell us, if you're not a ghost, then what are you?"
As soon as he said that, many people nodded to themselves. There was nothing wrong with Xiao Yuanjing's analysis. In fact, when the old man walked out of the coffin, everyone wondered if he was a human or a ghost.
Even the old Celestial Master of Mount Longhu, Zhang Wuming, was a little shaken. He could not help but look at the sword-wielding elder and say, "Brother Li, this matter concerns your identity. Can you explain it to us?"
"I …"
The old man paused for a moment before a bitter smile appeared on his face. "When I came up here, I felt a chill on my neck, and then I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I discovered that I was in this secret chamber. Because I discovered Xiao Buyi's statue, I forgot about everything that happened before and went back to inform all of you …"
He paused for a moment and said with an unnatural expression, "I suspect that I was ambushed by something …"
Even when he said this, he did not have much confidence, because this experience was really difficult to convince others.
Ye Chen frowned and stared at him. "Are you saying that someone attacked you from behind and knocked you out when you came up? Then, you were thrown into the secret room?"
He could feel that the other party was not lying.
Before the old man could speak, Xiao Yuanjing sneered, "What a joke. You're a beginner-stage martial venerable. Who could sneak an attack on you without anyone noticing? Besides, all of us were on the first floor at that time. Let me ask you, who would be able to launch a sneak attack on you? "
"That's Yuanjing's analysis!"
Bai Shaoyu laughed dryly and said, "Furthermore, the other party ambushed you, but they didn't kill you. Instead, they threw you into the secret room. What's the meaning of this? Could it be that they have nothing better to do? "
Zhang Wuming's expression became more and more solemn, "Brother Li, you should tell the truth!"
"I'm telling the truth. The reason why I didn't tell you guys at the beginning was because I knew that even if I told you guys, you wouldn't believe me!"
The old man shook his head and smiled bitterly. His expression was terrible, "Moreover, I suspect that the person who ambushed me was the one who killed Bai Pengfei in the dark and escaped to the second floor.
"This means that there's something wrong with you!"
Xiao Yuanjing's face was cold, "The other party even killed Bai Pengfei, but in the end, he only ambushed you and did not kill you. He even threw you into the secret room. How do you explain that?"
The old man was speechless, "I …"
This time, the way everyone looked at the old man changed again. The other party's words were not worth pondering.
"There's no need to waste your breath on him!"
Bai Shaoyu interrupted him and said with a cold smile, "The situation is very clear now. When we just boarded the ghost ship, the black fog attacked. There must be evil spirits in the black fog sneaking in before we could close the doors and windows."
He looked straight at Ye Chen and the old man with the sword, "I'm sure that there are three evil spirits that sneaked in. The first one is the one who killed Bai Pengfei in the dark, and the two of you must be the remaining two evil spirits!"
Xiao Yuanjing took a step forward and locked his killing intent onto Ye Chen and the old man with the sword, "Everyone, let's do it. Even if they're evil spirits, we have the numbers advantage. We can kill them!"
At the next moment!
Apart from the Luo family and the Tang family, everyone present exuded cold killing intent at Ye Chen and the old man with the sword.
"We won't care about this anymore!"
Zhang Wuming, Master Yizhen, and the rest looked at each other and stood aside at the same time. Clearly, they suspected that Ye Chen was a ghost, but they could not attack him.
Luo Shuiyao's pretty face changed. She was about to step forward when Luo Tianya stopped her. She could not help but say with a trembling voice, "Brother …"
Luo Tianya said in a deep voice, "This isn't something we can interfere with!"
Xiang Heng, who was beside him, said with a cold smile, "Yaoyao, Xiao Buyi's prophecy is very clear. Ye is a ghost. Instead of letting it kill us, we might as well make the first move!"
"Forget it!"
Ye Chen said slowly. His tone seemed calm, but it revealed an extreme coldness, "Since I can't reason with you guys, I can only use my fists. Since you say that I'm a ghost, I'll turn all of you into ghosts today!"
"Kill him!"
Bai Shaoyu shouted and charged at Ye Chen first.
Right at that instant, the entire ghost ship trembled violently. It was as if a meteor had crashed down from outer space, and everyone was practically unable to stand steadily.
Someone said in shock, "What happened?!"
