No, these are not humans, they are Ghosts, or... or corpses!
The closer they got to the Horse-faced Ghost, the more terrifying the decay of the corpses was. The corpse with its hand on the Horse-faced Ghost's shoulder had almost completely rotted away.
Mist surrounded them, and the Chaos Burial Mound underfoot had disappeared. Chen Nang and the Trickster were shocked by the scene before them.
They understood that the Horse-faced Ghost's domain had vanished. More precisely, the Horse-faced Ghost had been suppressed by those... those lined up, zombie-like things.
And all of this was simply because Yang Xiao had disappeared for a few minutes midway, it was all his doing.
From this moment on, the inappropriate thoughts in the Trickster's heart vanished completely, and he profoundly realized the gap between him and Yang Xiao.
