Chapter 140 - 140 139 Female Ghost Xiaoqing_1

140: Chapter 139: Female Ghost Xiaoqing_1 140: Chapter 139: Female Ghost Xiaoqing_1 Everyone immediately stopped and turned to look at the last bodyguard.

The bodyguard suddenly felt a chill and asked, “What…

what are you looking at me for?

I’m telling the truth, someone really called my name just now, and it was a woman’s voice.

It was ethereal and actually quite pleasant to the ear.”

Everyone immediately became tense.

“Could it be a female ghost calling your name?

I didn’t hear anything.”

“Yeah, nobody called out, okay?

Are you trying to scare us on purpose?”

The bodyguard, pale-faced and trembling, said, “I really heard it, I’m not lying to you!”

Tang Shouli turned to look at Wu Daolong and asked, “True Being Wu, what’s going on here?”

Wu Daolong looked around warily and said, “This place is extremely heavy with Yin energy, any kind of phenomenon is normal.

He might be having hallucinations.”

Lu Chuan said with a smile, “He’s not hallucinating, there really is a female ghost calling his name.”

Wu Daolong immediately frowned, “Are you questioning my judgment?”

Wu Daolong’s apprentice Liu Bo, pointing aggressively at Lu Chuan, shouted, “If you don’t know what you’re talking about, then don’t spout nonsense here.

My master is a Cultivation True Being, and what he says is never wrong!”

“If there really is a female ghost calling his name, then why can only he hear it, but we can’t?”

Lu Chuan said with a smile, “Ghosts and such beings, only those with a weak body and depleted energy are more susceptible to encountering them.

In other words, the reason he can hear a female ghost calling his name is because he’s suffering from a deficiency of the kidneys.”

He turned to look at the bodyguard and asked, “Am I right?”

The bodyguard’s face was full of embarrassment, but he honestly nodded and said, “There is a little weakness.

My new girlfriend works at a bar, and it’s been a bit intense…”

Wu Daolong snorted coldly and said, “Even so, how do you know it’s a female ghost?

Why can’t it be a male ghost?”

Lu Chuan said, “Because I saw her.”

Liu Bo directly asked, “Are you also deficient in the kidneys?”

Lu Chuan: “…”

He pointed towards a large tree not far from the woods and said, “The female ghost is right there, wearing red clothes, see for yourselves.”

The crowd immediately turned their heads and indeed saw a female ghost next to the big tree, clad in red, her face hidden by her hair, exuding an eerie and terrifying presence.

The bodyguards were instantly panicked.

“A ghost!

It’s really a ghost!”

Suddenly, a cold wind swept through the woods.

The flashlights the bodyguards were holding began to flicker, and soon all of them exploded with a bang.

The woods fell into darkness, with only the moonlight barely allowing them to discern their surroundings.

Wu Daolong, as if facing a formidable enemy, quickly pulled out a Peach Wood Sword and some yellow talisman paper from his clothes.

He looked towards where the female ghost had been, only to find she had vanished without a trace.

One of the bodyguards took out a spare flashlight and said, “I have a spare one here!”

Then he turned the flashlight on.

A beam of light appeared, and he saw the female ghost in red had appeared before him at some point, her long hair stirred by the wind, revealing a face with pitch-black pupils and deathly pale skin.

The bodyguard was so frightened that he fainted on the spot.

Wu Daolong rushed towards the female ghost in red, wielding the Peach Wood Sword and releasing Mana that caused the sword to glow with yellow light.

He thrust forward with the sword, and a powerful force emerged, instantly targeting the female ghost.

The female ghost, upon seeing this, swiftly floated into mid-air, avoiding Wu Daolong’s attack.

Then the ghost extended her pale hand, with long, blue nails that were incredibly horrifying, and made a gesture as if she was strangling someone.

The next second, Wu Daolong felt something choking his neck, unable to catch his breath.

His face turned pale as he quickly used the Peach Wood Sword to sever the ghost’s approach and rolled to the side to dodge the attack.

“This is a vengeful ghost!

My spiritual practice is not enough to deal with her.

Run for your lives, or we’ll all perish here today!” Wu Daolong shouted.

Upon hearing this, everyone panicked and started to flee in all directions.

Tang Shouli hadn’t expected the ghost in Cloud Mists Villa to be beyond even Wu Daolong’s handling.

With legs trembling and his whole body shivering, he found himself unable to run.

When the female ghost saw everyone trying to escape, her face twisted into a hideous snarl, as if she was ready to pounce and devour them all.

Wu Daolong quickly threw out the yellow talisman paper he was holding.

The talisman drawn on the paper emitted a bright light and instantly fixed the ghost in mid-air.

Wu Daolong controlled the power of the talisman, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

He turned to look at Lu Chuan and said, “I can only hold the vengeful ghost for five minutes.

After that, I’ll have no way to handle her.

Although I don’t like you, I know you have some skills.

Lead everyone out of here quickly!”

Liu Bo, upon hearing this, urgently yelled at Lu Chuan, “What are you waiting for, hurry up and lead us out of here!”

Unexpectedly, this guy has a sense of responsibility…

Lu Chuan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I can handle this female ghost.”

Seeing this, Wu Daolong’s brows furrowed deeply and he said, “Have you lost your mind?

This is your only chance to escape.

Even if you want to die, don’t joke with everyone’s lives!”

Liu Bo showed a look of terror and shouted, “Even my master couldn’t deal with this female ghost, how could you possibly manage?

Hurry back, if this female ghost breaks free from my master’s control, we will all die!”

Lu Chuan paid them no heed.

Instead, he looked up at the female ghost floating in mid-air, took out a piece of yellow talisman paper from his clothes, bit his finger, and quickly drew a talisman, then yelled, “Come down!”

In the midst of everyone’s disbelief, the female ghost actually obediently descended and began to tremble beside Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan placed the drawn talisman on the forehead of the female ghost.

A blinding light emitted from it.

Enveloped by the light, the female ghost screamed in agony.

Streams of negative energy emerged from her, as if her strength was being hollowed out, her body beginning to twist and contort with pain.

Wu Daolong watched the scene, dumbfounded, and murmured, “This is a vengeful ghost, ah!

How did he subdue her so easily?”

Tang Shouli exclaimed, “So it turns out…

Lu Chuan is this powerful!”

Liu Bo was completely dumbstruck, “Didn’t master say this vengeful ghost was difficult to deal with?

How come she’s like bullying a kindergartener in this guy’s hands?”

After a long while, all of the negative and malevolent energy within the female ghost was thoroughly extracted.

She changed from her original appearance as a red-dressed vengeful ghost into a girl wearing a white dress, with flowing long hair and a delicate face, her figure somewhat ethereal.

If not for knowing she was a female ghost, everyone might think she was a school beauty who had run out from some school.

There was a hint of liveliness in the eyes of the female ghost.

She glanced around then quickly knelt in front of Lu Chuan, respectfully saying, “Thank you, Immortal Master, for helping me rid myself of the malevolence within!”

Lu Chuan gestured with his hand and said, “Stand up.”

The female ghost stood and obediently positioned herself beside Lu Chuan.

Tang Shouli was speechless with his eyes wide open.

He hurried over to Lu Chuan and asked, “Lu Chuan, what’s going on?

How did that terrifying vengeful ghost turn into a fairy maiden?”

Lu Chuan said, “She is not a fairy maiden; she is essentially still a malicious ghost, only I have purged the malevolence surrounding her, cleansed the viciousness in her heart, and transformed her into a benevolent ghost.”

Tang Shouli was full of shock, never expecting Lu Chuan to possess such an ability.

Wu Daolong came over, looking at Lu Chuan somewhat sheepishly, then bowed to him and said, “Lu Chuan, I’m sorry, I underestimated you.

My cultivation is simply like playing the lute to a cow compared to yours.

No wonder you treated me that way.”

“I’ve realized my ignorance and hope you can forgive my earlier stupidity.

I sincerely ask for your forgiveness.”

Lu Chuan gave a slight smile and said, “You were selfless earlier, and that raised my opinion of you.

There’s no need to dwell on the past.”

Wu Daolong breathed a sigh of relief and a happy smile appeared on his face.

Lu Chuan didn’t want to waste time.

He turned to the obedient female ghost beside him and asked, “What is your name?”

The female ghost quickly replied, “Immortal Master, you may call me Xiaoqing.”

Lu Chuan nodded, “Xiaoqing, tell us, why did you become a vengeful ghost, harming people here?”

Xiaoqing immediately showed a face full of grievance, biting her lip and said, “Immortal Master, it’s unjust!”

Lu Chuan raised an eyebrow, asking, “Could there be another hidden story to this?”

With tears glistening in her eyes, Xiaoqing earnestly nodded her head.

“Xiaoqing was forcibly turned into a vengeful ghost and sealed here!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished.

Especially the bodyguards; they thought a vengeful ghost was scary enough, but they had never imagined that such a frightening ghost had been created by someone.

It seems that more terrifying than the ghost itself is often the person themselves!

Lu Chuan frowned and said, “Tell us in detail.”

Xiaoqing began to sob while telling her own story.

“I was a student at Qingyang University originally.

Because my family was impoverished, I studied very hard, and I guess I wasn’t too bad-looking, so my classmates nicknamed me the school beauty.”

“One time, Sun Shao’an, the heir of the real estate tycoon Sun Real Estate in Qingyang City, went to our school.

Somehow, he heard about me and became fixated on meeting me.

He sent me many branded gifts, asking me out for meals.”

“I didn’t want to get involved with a rich playboy, so I turned down all his invitations and returned all the gifts.”

“But who knew that Sun Shao’an would intensify his efforts.

He figured out my routine, blockaded my routes, and was dead set on making me his girlfriend.”

“My classmates were all bought by his money, trying all kinds of ways to push us together.”

“In the end, I couldn’t withstand Sun Shao’an’s advances and agreed to have a meal with him.”

“But who could have imagined that bastard would drug the meal?

After only a few bites, I felt groggy and helpless.”

“Sun Shao’an wanted to take advantage of me.

Gritting my teeth, I broke free from his arms, managed to get in the elevator, and went up to the top floor of the building that day.”

“Dragging my weak body, I made it to the edge of the building and told Sun Shao’an that if he pressured me further, I would jump.”

“Sun Shao’an was not afraid at all.

He thought it was an honor for him to fancy me and that I should cooperate with him to satisfy his lust.”

“He didn’t believe I dared to jump and proposed to engage in such acts with me on the top of the building.”

“He said he had never done it in such a place and thought it would be thrilling.”

“After saying that, he walked over to drag me back.”

“At that moment, nearly unconscious, to avoid being tarnished by such a beast, after a fierce internal struggle, I lept from the top of the building…”
