"AH!" A piercing scream tore through the heart.
The Ghost-whipping Whip was meant for ghosts; used on humans, it was just an ordinary whip. His wail was so agonizing—if it was not from some vile being, then what was it?
Before the second lash could land, the figure cried out in agony, "I'll talk! Stop... stop hitting me!"
"We... we are Ghost Sacrificers, possessing the bodies of the dead, preparing to leave the Ancient Tomb."
Ghost Sacrificers were Yin Yang ritual masters from the Chu Kingdom era, somewhat similar to modern Yin Yang Masters.
The Chu Kingdom had once formed an army akin to Yin Yang Masters. They were trained as soldiers and used Mystical Arts to seal themselves in coffins. If anyone approached, they would possess the intruder, taking over their body and living on in their stead.
Chu Hao was shocked. "How many Ghost Sacrificers are here?" he asked.
"One hundred and eight."
So many!
Chu Hao could not help but ask, "What do you plan to do when you get out?"
