YM778.TV Chapter 104: 104: Dispel the Evil Spirit (2)
The King’s Account kept urging her, the time was nearly here.
Chuzheng looked around and saw two ghosts standing with black wooden plaques in their hands and she floated over.
The two ghosts were fairly normal, with no missing arms or legs, and weren’t bloody; they looked almost like ordinary people.
As Chuzheng approached, the two ghosts immediately became alert.
Chuzheng kept a straight face, “Pass, will you sell it?”
“You want to buy?”
“Not selling!”
Both ghosts answered at the same time, and the one that said not for sale was the younger man on the left.
Chuzheng ignored the young male ghost and looked towards the middle-aged male ghost on the right, “Name your price.”
[Countdown until cost doubles: one minute.]
The young male ghost pulled at the middle-aged male ghost, “What are you doing? We worked hard to get our hands on these passes.”
The middle-aged male ghost gestured for him to be quiet and extended a finger towards Chuzheng, “This much.”
“Ten million?”
The young male ghost rolled his eyes, “A billion, what do you think this pass is, selling it to me for ten million!”
Chuzheng: “…” I might need to update my understanding of the currency in the Netherworld.
[Congratulations, Miss, on achieving the double earnings milestone, ten million has been deposited into your account. Please spend twenty million within an hour!]
Chuzheng, now with twenty million Joss Paper: “…”
Still can’t afford it!
It seems better to take them down after all!
It turns out that money isn’t everything!
Apparently, the King’s Account also misjudged the value of the currency here and, unlike before, didn’t gloat but silently submerged itself.
“Are you buying or not? If not, don’t block our way!” the young male ghost said with a frown.
“Why is it so lively today?”
A coquettish and charming voice came from behind, and a female ghost suddenly appeared next to the young male ghost.
She wrapped her arms around the young male ghost’s neck, her eyes sultry, her voice even sweeter, “Little sir, did you miss me?”
The female ghost’s clothing was scant, revealing vast expanses of skin, her chest area particularly tumultuous, a hot figure that was extremely eye-catching.
The young male ghost was obviously petrified, revealing a look of fear that showed he was not the least bit enticed by the voluptuous female ghost.
The moment this female ghost appeared, ghosts in the vicinity rapidly dispersed, many female ghosts bowed their heads, hiding out of sight.
Even the middle-aged male ghost standing next to the young one had abandoned his companion and fled.
Clearly, this female ghost was formidable, and the other ghosts were very afraid of her.
As for certain humans, they too stepped aside to watch without intending to get involved.
“Sister Jiaojiao,” the young male ghost stammered.
The female ghost called Sister Jiaojiao leaned her head on the young male ghost’s shoulder, her seductive eyes staring straight at Chuzheng.
Her gaze was filled with thick malice.
Chuzheng: “…”
This Little Beauty!
We have never met before, what’s with this sudden malice towards me! Just because you’re pretty, don’t think I’ll forgive your rudeness!
“What did she say to you, little sir?”
The young male ghost swallowed hard, “She, she wanted to buy a pass.”
“Oh?” Sister Jiaojiao drew out her tone, her finger drawing circles on the young male ghost’s chest, “So, little sir, did you sell it to her?”
“No, I didn’t,” the young male ghost quickly shook his head.
Sister Jiaojiao went limp on the young male ghost, as if boneless, “You go capture her for me, and I’ll let you go today, how about that?”
The young male ghost: “…”
The young male ghost hardly dared to refuse, nodding hastily.
Sister Jiaojiao let him go, and the young male ghost immediately lunged at Chuzheng with cruel intent, trying to capture her.
“Isn’t it just because the Ghost King has got her back, that whenever she sees a pretty female ghost, she picks a fight? Her mind must be twisted, right?”
“Exactly. She’s sick in the head. Pretty female ghosts wouldn’t dare to show up in front of her.”
“Lucky for me I’m a guy.”
“You think you’re safe because you’re a man? Watch out, she might come after you for a night of pleasure.”
“That’s certainly not a case of ‘a ghost under the peonies, gallant even in death’; it’s literally dying for real.”
“You’re all courting death.” A ghost muttered in a low voice, and the conversation volume suddenly dropped.
It was during her scuffle with the young male ghost that Chuzheng overheard these exchanges.
Chuzheng gripped the young male ghost and slammed him to the ground. As the young male ghost tried to get up, the next moment he was bound by something, completely unable to move.
Chuzheng lifted her hand, and the young male ghost violently flew into the air.
Everyone followed the sight; the young male ghost’s face showed terror, his pupils dilated, and the next second, under everyone’s watchful eyes, he turned to dust.
Chuzheng spread her hand toward the empty air, and the barely visible Yin Xian fell back into her palm from the sky. In the blink of an eye, there was nothing to see anymore.
As if what had just been seen was an illusion.
Her palm held nothing.
The scene was deadly silent.
“Have I offended you?” Chuzheng asked Sister Jiaojiao.
“You’re quite powerful,” Sister Jiaojiao’s voice remained sickly sweet, “Do you know what kind of female ghost I hate the most?”
Chuzheng’s face was a picture of indifference, “I don’t want to know.”
Sister Jiaojiao didn’t care whether Chuzheng wanted to know or not and self-indulgently spat out the answer, “One with the face of a seductive fox, it’s just disgusting to look at.”
Chuzheng: “???”
Is this ghost… sick in the head?
What does someone else’s appearance have to do with her?
It’s not like they’re asking her for cosmetic surgery!
…One must be unhinged to suddenly block a stranger ghost and call for a fight.
Just get rid of her!
At that moment, Chuzheng was wearing a light-colored dress, her soft hair casually resting on her shoulders, with delicate and prominent features that were stunning at first glance.
She stood dignified in the center, her whole being emanating a cold aloofness that rejected others from a thousand miles, noble and elegant.
Chuzheng’s eyes were serene, not a ripple to be seen, “You should take a look in the mirror.”
Even as ghosts, one must learn to introspect!
She looks pretty good, so why accuse others of being seductive? She herself is even more seductive, alright?!
Sister Jiaojiao: “???”
Sister Jiaojiao realized that Chuzheng was talking about her face…
But this face…
Suddenly, the coquettish face of Sister Jiaojiao twisted into something hideous, “At first, I just wanted to teach you a lesson, but now…”
Her eyes flashed with a venomous light, “I’m going to make you wish you were dead.”
“I am dead,” Chuzheng stated calmly, “How exactly do you intend to make me wish I were dead? Resurrect me?”
Sister Jiaojiao: “…”
That line was a bit too much. Sister Jiaojiao was clearly stunned.
In a fury, Sister Jiaojiao said, “Sharp-tongued, heh, I’ll teach you the rules here today…”
How annoying.
Chuzheng waved her hand, and Sister Jiaojiao’s voice came to an abrupt halt.
She held her head high, as if someone was throttling her.
“Rules?” Chuzheng glanced at her, each word as if sharpened with ice, “What are they?”
Sister Jiaojiao’s beautiful eyes widened, she struggled to utter, “You… you…”
Her feet left the ground, slowly rising.
From her ankle to her calf, something cold and slender wrapped around her, moving up to her thigh, lower abdomen, chest, arms…
But she couldn’t see what it was.
As if an invisible snake, an intangible fear enveloped her.
