father and listen carefully.”"I can't remember!" I pouted. "The knowledge you impart is too profound; how can I possibly remember it all in just one go""If you don't remember it the first time, I'll..."Hmm...of course not...this is just, a little scratch from an accident..." Chang Jing's voice was haughty and alluring.

The barrier inside the door prevented me from seeing my brother and Chang-Jing, so I could only stand there with my ear pressed against it, trying to eavesdrop.

But the front door was a distance from the living room, and I couldn't hear some of the conversation clearly. From Chang Jing's tone, I sensed that my brother hadn't been exposed yet.

"...Who caught you They even caught such a beautiful body, too gentle." My brother said in a deep voice.

"Haha…just a man who isn't worth mentioning, I've already punished him… you're right, men are better off being gentle…" Chang Jing's voice grew quieter: "...you, do you count as a gentle man"

The seductive intent in those words is too obvious. I'm not worried my brother will be tempted, but I am concerned he might anger this woman... perhaps she's being controlled by that female ghost.

"Sigh... If you didn't touch me, I might still be gentle... But if you touch me like that... I don't think I can even be gentle anymore..." My brother's voice was still as teasing as ever.

This dialogue is driving me crazy, I can't see what's going on inside and I'm pulling my hair out in frustration.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, its silvery light illuminating the cobblestone path. I felt a sudden chill run down my spine.

Turning back, I saw a slender man standing not far behind me. The lightning illuminated half his face, revealing a sly and enigmatic smile.

"Ah!" I was startled. What kind of person suddenly appeared behind me!

This man is tall and slender, with a long ponytail loosely tied at the back of his head. His hair strands drape over his thin shoulders. His narrow phoenix eyes are slightly raised, staring coldly at me with a smile.

I shuddered, couldn't control my strength, and bumped into the door frame.

The voices inside the house abruptly stopped. I...I was discovered!

My brother's mind raced. He smiled and said, "Maybe my girlfriend is here to find me. Beautiful lady, excuse me for a moment!"

"Well…we could go upstairs…lock the door, and let me see just how tender you are~~" Chang Jing's voice carried a condescending air, seemingly quite taken with my brother.

“Well… not really a good idea… Such an open and obvious affair, tsk, it wouldn't be easy to smooth things over if we were caught.” My brother replied with a smile.

"Ahahahaha..." Chang Jing let out a strange, eerie giggle and whispered softly, "Adultery... so stimulating... ahhhhhhh—"

Her voice suddenly changed, shifting from alluring to a shriek. I didn't have time to worry about the sinister figure chuckling behind me. I whipped out three talismans of warding off demons and evil spirits and slapped them onto the three sides of the doorframe.

I had barely started the incantation when the talisman flared like dry grass catching fire, burning with sudden intensity.

My chanting couldn't keep up with the speed at which the talismans were being drawn. I was flustered, when suddenly, from beside me, came Chang Jing's voice, distorted and shrill with agony—

"You, you have something on you!!! Who are you——aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah——"

The sound pierced my scalp, sending shivers down my spine. In the panic, I could only clench my fist around Lei Ju and prepare to forcefully break through the barrier!

A slender, pale hand reached out.

Three fingers effortlessly gripped my wrist.

This strength, this touch...

"Seven, Qilin...Is that you" I suddenly realized.

The man slightly tilted his face, raising the corner of his lips into an unfathomable smile: "Little Empress, it hasn't been long since we last saw each other~~~haven't you seen this disguise before"

Last time Which last time... It feels like it was a long time ago.

"Hee hee hee... Let me come..." He waved his hand, signaling for me to move out of the way.

Bai Wuchang stood at the door, drawing talismans in the air.

The talismans used by ordinary people like us are for inviting deities, so there are many rules and procedures involved. However, these underworld deities are already gods themselves, so they don't need to invite "themselves". The drawing method of their talismans is much simpler, and the casting speed is also much faster than ours.

In this new outfit, Bai Wuchang is completely unrecognizable to me... He's lost his tall, pointed hat and his snowy white, wide-sleeved robe. He looks like a different person altogether.

His face had lost even the pretense of a smile, replaced only by a chilling coldness.

This house's barrier was temporarily set up, and the female ghost didn't expect us to come so quickly. She still had the mood to play around here.

In a shriek, the barrier at the door was broken by Bai Wu Chang, and the sinister aura from within the house suddenly gushed out from the doorway.

Vicious, chilling, with a bloody wind that almost suffocated me.

A face flushed crimson, veins bulging beneath the skin, eyes burning like fire... a demonic head appeared on Chang Jing's delicate and slender neck.

It seems like a terrifying doll, with wide eyes, a bloody face, and a thin neck connecting to its white body.

She was still wearing the red little dress.

Chang Jing's hand felt as if it were burning. One hand was smoking, the other desperately pressed against her abdomen as she struggled and rolled off the sofa. Her deep V dress slipped from one shoulder.

Her skin was snow-white with a few red marks, her chest exposed and tight beneath the shaping garment that stretched across her body. She looked terrifyingly seductive.

My brother leaned against the back of the sofa, as if he had been startled by Chang Jing's appearance. His clothes were fine, but his collar was unbuttoned, making him look a little disheveled.

"Brother! What's wrong with you!" I rushed over.

My brother patted his body and frowned: "She smells... a very strong perfume, I wonder if she's trying to cover something up."

Bai Wu Chang sneered: “What else can you conceal~~~~ Conceal this stench, this reek……”

Changjing... no, I can't say it's Changjing anymore... this definitely isn't her!

Her blood-red face was contorted with veins, as were her neck. It seemed like the blood vessels beneath her skin were about to burst at any moment, oozing crimson from that pallid complexion.

"You, you...what are you... Daring to oppose me.... Hahahahaha..." Her hand seemed as if it were burnt, her fingers emitting faint black smoke.

What did my brother do

I looked at my brother in confusion. Although he knew how to use talismans and various tools for exorcism, I had never seen him practice.

He rarely recited incantations, preferring quick and easy methods. He never bothered with accumulating blessings or merits for the purpose of liberating spirits. When did he ever possess such powerful magic to wound this proud female ghost

"Look what I'm doing! I didn't do anything!" My brother glared at me, saying in a low voice.

Of course I know you didn't do anything, how dare you apologize to Yan Qin...

"Is this Chang-jing really the female host you were talking about She's so bold, before I even had a chance to make a move, she ripped off half her shirt... Then, who knows what she was doing, as she pulled at my clothes, she screamed and jumped back, then started smoking..." My brother probably saw me getting the wrong idea, so he quickly waved his hand and explained.

"Hee hee…" Bai WuChang smirked, "She~~ loves to mess with people's morals and ruin relationships the most. She can't get enough of beautiful women, wanting to skin them and eat their flesh, and for men who betray her… she wants to crush their bones, suck their marrow, and drain them dry… hee hee hee…"

I was stunned. Bai Wu Chang's words seemed... really insightful about this female ghost!
