Chapter 513 - 486 The Ghost King’s Scheme!

Chapter 513: Chapter 486 The Ghost King’s Scheme!

The Ghost King pushed open the hospital room door and saw a Western man lying on the bed, wrapped in bandages and moaning incessantly!

With one glance, the corners of the Ghost King’s mouth curled into a smile as he casually strolled over and stood in front of Bard!

"Bard!" The Ghost King looked at Bard with a beaming smile.

"Ah! Ah..." Bard let out a series of unconscious, agonizing screams. His eyes lacked focus, and his gaze was filled with despair.

The Ghost King gazed indifferently at Bard:

"Do you want to become more powerful? Do you want your limbs to heal? Do you want... to regain your manhood?"

Upon hearing the Ghost King’s words, a glimmer of hope flashed across Bard’s eyes of despair. However, that light soon vanished, replaced once again by the pallor of death.

"Ah! Ah..." Bard continued to emit bursts of meaningless, agonized moans!

At that moment, Bard wished he could just die.

Regrettably, he didn’t even have the strength to take his own life now!

Seeing that Bard showed no reaction, the Ghost King wasn’t in a hurry, and with a slight smile, he uttered a name:

"Li Chen!"

Li Chen!

At the mention of that name, Bard’s face, which had been shrouded in hopelessness, finally showed a hint of color!

Witnessing this scene, a sliver of a smile emerged on the Ghost King’s face as he said:

"Do you hate him deeply? Do you want to kill him? Do you want to take his woman?"

Bard’s expression flickered slightly, and a pained voice came from his mouth as he struggled to turn his head to look at the Ghost King, rasping:

"I can’t do anything right now. What do you want me to do?"

"No!" The Ghost King gently shook his head and pulled out a small bottle from his pocket.

The bottle was palm-sized, containing a green, sewage-like liquid.

The Ghost King gently shook the liquid in his hand and chuckled:

"All you have to do is drink this, and you’ll become incredibly powerful. Then, you can do whatever you want!"

Bard stared intently at the green liquid in the Ghost King’s hand.

He could sense that the Ghost King was up to no good.

But what of it, if he could bring Li Chen pain, he was willing to do anything!

After all, he was already a broken man!

"Give... give it to me!" Bard spoke with difficulty!

"Very well, open your mouth!" The Ghost King’s face revealed a sinister smile!

Bard struggled to open his mouth, and the Ghost King poured the bubbly green liquid into Bard’s mouth.

Having emptied all the liquid into Bard’s mouth, the Ghost King carelessly tossed the empty bottle into the trash bin and looked at Bard with a smile:

"There’ll be an adjustment period. I’ll come back for you tonight, and then you’ll be able to embrace your rebirth!"

With that, the Ghost King didn’t wait for Bard to react; he turned and left the hospital room directly!

Upon leaving the hospital room and closing the door behind him, the corners of the Ghost King’s mouth lifted slightly:

"The first step is complete. Now for the second step. My Lord Nether King, I hope you’ll enjoy this gift! Haha!"

With a hearty laugh, the Ghost King strode away.

Half an hour later, the Ghost King appeared again near Li Chen’s villa, intermittently placing small bottles around.

The Ghost King moved elusively, and those guarding the villa from the Palace of the Nether King somehow failed to notice his actions.

Each of these bottles contained a colorless and transparent liquid.

The substance was highly volatile; the moment a bottle burst open and came into contact with air, it would evaporate into a gas!

And this gas was the Ghost King’s true weapon against Li Chen!

Last time, Li Yang used a unique gas he created that left Li Chen utterly weak, nearly causing his death.

If not for Li Chen’s critical breakout, Li Yang would have succeeded!

Now, the substance in the Ghost King’s hands was an improvement upon Li Yang’s gas, even more domineering!

And it was much harder to detect!

Bard was merely a pawn for him; this liquid was his real killer move!

"I really look forward to tomorrow!"

Li Chen wandered around outside and finally walked towards the villa with a string of stinky tofu, munching as he went.

Just as Li Chen entered the villa gate, he saw Lin Yi doing aerobics on the lawn in the yard.

The music was lively, and the girl’s figure, graceful.

Li Chen leaned against the wall, nibbling on the stinky tofu and admiring Lin Yi’s dance moves.

Once the song ended, Li Chen also finished off the stinky tofu.

"Great! Wife, you dance so beautifully!" Li Chen said with a grin as he walked over.

"Don’t come near me, you smell terrible!" Lin Yi looked at Li Chen with a face full of disgust!

"Smelly? I don’t think so. Come on, give me a kiss!"

"Ugh! Don’t..."

Unbeknownst to them, night had fallen.

Li Chen opened his computer and connected to a video call; Alice’s avatar appeared.

"Lord Nether King, the first test subject has been successful. It can be delivered to you tomorrow morning," Alice said excitedly as she appeared.

"Excellent, I can already sense it!" A satisfied smile played on Li Chen’s lips!

...

Meanwhile, at People’s Hospital, in room 1021, Ghost King pushed open the door to the ward.

Ghost King appeared silently in front of Bard.

Bard struggled to open his eyes, and upon seeing Ghost King, he roared angrily in a difficult tone:

"You... you said you would make me much stronger, didn’t you? Why... Why do I feel even more terrible now!"

Ghost King smirked slightly, "Success definitely comes at a small price."

While speaking, Ghost King took out a green needle as slim and long as a chopstick from his bosom!

"What... what are you going to do!" Bard felt an inner panic as he looked at the green, oily needle.

A strange smile appeared on Ghost King’s face, and he mercilessly jabbed the needle in.

"Ah!" Along came Bard’s agonized scream!

Crack, crack...

Sounds of growing bones resonated!

One could see Bard’s previously useless limbs—their shattered bones—beginning to regrow!

"Ah~!"

Bard let out a cry of pain.

Simultaneously, thick muscles appeared, and Bard’s body rapidly enlarged, swelling up!

In just a dozen seconds or so, Bard’s height had shot up from one meter eighty to over two meters!

And those robust muscles, that enormous head, he was the spitting image of a green giant!

"I feel an unprecedented strength now!" Bard exclaimed excitedly!

The power in his body seemed endless.

And what excited Bard even more was that his manhood had grown back!

"Good! Adapt to it, and go find him tomorrow!" Ghost King said, satisfied as he looked at Bard!

**

A night passed without incident.

The next day, Li Chen and Lin Yi went to the company together in the car.

"Xiaoxiao, aren’t you going to school today?"

Li Chen curiously asked as they were leaving.

"Nope, I’m resting today!" Lin Xiaoxiao hoisted her skirt, her gaze fixed intently on the TV, sitting cross-legged on the sofa, oblivious to her exposure.

Li Chen glanced at the fleeting glimpse of springtime charm, shook his head, then left with Lin Yi.

Just after Li Chen and Lin Yi had left, the burly Bard slowly appeared in front of Li Chen’s villa.

Bard looked at the villa in front of him, cracked a smile, looking particularly ferocious!
