The female ghost was chased around the villa, causing random items to break with loud crackling sounds.
Senior Brother Changbian and the trio seemed to be trapped by the female ghost, leaving only her dragging Mr. Jhiang into a room.
Mr. Jhiang was in a particularly horrible state, accumulating bruises and wounds all over his body during the ordeal.
Chuzheng gestured for Xia Han to follow them in.
Taking a deep breath, Xia Han, clutching a pile of props, entered the room.
The room was filled with gusts of chilling wind, and Mr. Jhiang lay on the bed, with the female ghost crouching beside him like a spider.
The female ghost sneered, “You want to meddle?”
She was speaking to Chuzheng.
“Not really.” I’ve already bought the props and can’t let them go to waste!
“Then why are you going against me!!” the female ghost raged.
“You hurt people,” Chuzheng declared righteously.
Eradicating harm for the people, she was not in the wrong!
This bastard was trying to plot against her before this.
“Hurt people?” The female ghost’s face twisted into a grimace and she shrieked, “What do you know, you don’t know anything, what right do you have to accuse me of hurting people!?”
Chuzheng pointed at Mr. Jhiang, “Human.”
“He counts as a human?”
“Biologically, yes.”
“…” The female ghost was at a loss for words.
Gritting her teeth, the female ghost said, “You’ve offended the Ghost King, you can’t even protect yourself, and yet you still have the nerve to deal with me.”
Chuzheng thought for a moment, “What did you want to do when you came to me that day?”
The female ghost didn’t seem to intend on hiding anything, “I didn’t expect you’d have a bit of smarts. I wanted to devour you, so my powers could increase even more, but who knew you wouldn’t show up, allowing you to escape a calamity.”
Chuzheng: “…”
I knew this bastard had no good intentions.
Chuzheng turned to Xia Han and ordered, “Smash her.”
Xia Han complied very obediently, starting to smash with the props in hand.
The female ghost: “…”
Think you’re amazing with props?!
If you’re capable, fight me one-on-one!!
The female ghost dodged the things Xia Han threw, visibly annoyed, “Have you had enough!”
“Not done smashing yet,” Chuzheng said, tilting her chin slightly, “Continue.”
The female ghost: “…”
The female ghost screamed, “Do you know what this bastard did?”
Chuzheng replied, “Not my business.” I’m just not letting what I’ve bought go to waste.
The female ghost said, “To force the demolition, he hired thugs to harass us daily. He’s scum, doing whatever it takes for the demolition and causing my parents’ death.”
Chuzheng: “…” I don’t want to hear it.
“I came for him, do you know what he did? He… he violated me and then made my death look like a suicide. He’s a piece of scum!”
“Why are you helping this scum? You’re a ghost too, we are the same. Why are you helping him!! Why!”
Who let you have the idea of hitting me with a Good Person Card first!
Could he even be considered for it?
Do you think it’s something you can covet?!
But this man really is a bit of scum…
Chuzheng faced her seriously, “Then you finish him off first.”
The female ghost: “…”
Mr. Jhiang slowly came to, and the first sight that greeted him was the female ghost’s hideous face, which scared him so much that he nearly fainted again.
The female ghost grabbed hold of him, and the fear snapped Mr. Jhiang back to full alertness.
“Heavenly Master… Heavenly Master, save me!”
“They can’t save you,” the female ghost said ominously, revealing her white teeth, “Today is the day you die.”
Mr. Jhiang screamed for a long time, but neither Senior Brother Changbian nor anyone else appeared. There was only the handsome young man holding the props, standing at the doorway, seemingly at a loss.
In the eerie setting, the young man seemed to glow. Mr. Jhiang looked at him as if he were seeing a god.
“Heavenly Master, save me, save me…” Mr. Jhiang pinned all his hopes on Xia Han.
The young man pursed his lips slightly and glanced to the side.
To Mr. Jhiang, it seemed as if he was looking at thin air.
No matter what Mr. Jhiang said, Xia Han ignored him, just looking to the side.
He didn’t know what Xia Han was gazing at, but suddenly felt a chill to the bone.
“No… let me go, whatever you want, I’ll give it to you, please spare me, I know I was wrong.”
Mr. Jhiang knelt down and kowtowed to the female ghost.
“You know you’re wrong now? What use is that? Can I still come back to life?”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, please spare me, I really know I was wrong,” Mr. Jhiang said with snot and tears.
The female ghost tormented Mr. Jhiang back and forth, it looked rather tragic.
Chuzheng watched indifferently, seeming truly ready to wait until the female ghost had killed him before taking action.
Footsteps came from the stairs, as Senior Brother Changbian and the trio broke through the female ghost’s obstruction and were heading this way.
Chuzheng: “Smash her.”
Xia Han looked at the nearly breathless Mr. Jhiang and took out something to continue smashing the female ghost.
A heap of items were thrown, and the female ghost emitted smoke constantly, barely able to maintain her form.
The female ghost screamed curses at Chuzheng, and Xia Han, very displeased, hit her with extra force.
Little Beauty was so good; no one could insult her!
“Ah…”
The female ghost’s figure disbanded in the air, and Chuzheng instantly floated to the bedside, Mr. Jhiang still had a breath left.
As Mr. Jhiang watched the female ghost disappear and just let out a sigh of relief, suddenly another girl appeared before him.
The girl’s face was somewhat pale, and she was floating in the air, obviously not a normal person.
A cold voice fell into his ears: “Xia Han disposed of the female ghost, that 2 million, who should it go to, do you know?”
Mr. Jhiang was so scared that he didn’t move.
“If you don’t give it to him, I believe your future life will be very interesting.”
Mr. Jhiang: “…”
Threat!
This ghost is threatening him!!
–
Mr. Jhiang was rescued by Senior Brother Changbian and the trio who had come up behind.
Xia Han stood at the edge holding the few remaining talismans.
The ground was covered in various magic artifacts and already ineffective props, causing everyone to feel heartache.
These magic artifacts belonged to Xia Han; nobody would pick up things someone else had thrown away for the sake of face, so no one went to fetch them.
After being busy all night, everyone took a good rest.
The next day, Mr. Jhiang prepared 2 million for Xia Han, and the others also gave him money separately.
Mr. Jhiang clutched Senior Brother Changbian: “Is he your junior brother?”
Senior Brother Changbian nodded.
“This junior brother of yours,” Mr. Jhiang stared into the void, his facial muscles suddenly tensing, and dryly said: “is quite remarkable, quite remarkable—thank you for me.”
Chuzheng floated past from behind Senior Brother Changbian.
Mr. Jhiang was on the verge of collapsing.
Why couldn’t these Heavenly Masters see her?
This ghost was drifting back and forth in front of them so conspicuously, couldn’t they see her?
Mr. Jhiang promptly sent everyone away, and as they left, the girl from the trio, who was clearly very dissatisfied with Xia Han, ranted indirectly at him.
As a result, the car the trio got into had an accident just after leaving.
Of course, Xia Han didn’t know, and he and Senior Brother Changbian were also preparing to return to Taokong Mountain.
Senior Brother Changbian might still be thinking about the female ghost, not paying much attention to Xia Han.
Xia Han sat in the last seat, talking to Chuzheng.
“Here, take this.”
Xia Han stuffed the card at Chuzheng.
“What’s this for?”
“Because of you, Mr. Jhiang gave me the money, so it’s naturally yours.” If not for those props, how could he have dealt with the female ghost.
“I have no use for it,” Chuzheng pushed it back.
Xia Han seemed to remember that Chuzheng was a ghost and mumbled, “Then, I’ll… save it.”
Chuzheng crossed her arms and leaned against the seat: “Be careful with your senior brother.”
Xia Han looked forward and gripped the card tighter.
