Chapter 399: Chapter 403 Pen Fairy (Part 2)

After acquiring the memories of the Red Ghost, Su Li felt as though a herd of ten thousand alpacas had trampled over her heart.

She just wanted to burst out with expletives, damn it, damn it...

This Evil Ghost was rather unlucky.

Ah, now the unluckiness had become hers.

According to the clichés in the novels she’d read, the original owner wasn’t even an important supporting character in this event.

At most, she was a nameless character of no significance.

To sum this event up, it was like a master’s ostentatious journey of hitting on girls, somewhat similar to the popular web novel tropes in her own little world.

The original owner was a female ghost who died during the Republic Period, a time of turmoil, and she had died wronged.

By chance, she had managed to become an Evil Ghost, and the people who had wronged her met their ends at her hands.

With no attachments left and having missed the grand opening of the Ghost Gate, she could only wander in the Mortal World.

The original owner was a ghost with great Luck, generally speaking, ghosts without obsessions would slowly dissipate over time, but she had stumbled upon a Ghost Pearl and proudly cultivated the Ghost Path.

After over a hundred years of cultivation, she had achieved some success and was about to ascend to become a Ghost Immortal. But during the critical and vulnerable period of advancement, she had the misfortune of encountering the Summoning Technique.

Had it been her prime, not to mention summoning her, such a trivial attracting force wouldn’t have been able to touch even the hem of her garment.

However, her misfortune lay in the fact she was at her weakest bottleneck, and she could only helplessly follow the pull of the summoning to the girls’ dormitory at Mingrui University.

Inside were four pretty college girls playing the Pen Fairy game.

The original owner, who was cultivating just fine, was inexplicably summoned by these young ladies. Was she angry?

Of course, she was angry.

Had these girls properly completed the final step and sent her away, she would have let it be, but these ladies decided to court death and didn’t send her back.

Actually, this game was also a contract between the Pen Fairy and the people playing, if you don’t follow the contract, and the original owner, being weak during this period, had no power to resist the pull of the contract and had no choice but to stay by the girls’ side, unable to leave.

Anger~

But even in her anger, the original owner had no intention of actually harming these girls. She merely played minor pranks to scare them, venting the frustration in her heart.

First, if she practiced the Righteous Path, it wasn’t good to layer on mindless killing. Second, she was not a person who delighted in slaughter.

When she was alive, the original owner was also a graceful and noble lady of a wealthy family. The only time she went berserk and revealed her true nature as a Red Ghost was against her own enemies, those who had wronged and killed her.

One could say she was a Red Ghost with a high degree of Buddha Nature.

But this time, it was her deathly tribulation.

Because she was following the four girls, it was inevitable that they became tainted with yin energy.

Xue Rou had a delicate body and because of the yin energy entering her, she fell ill with a sickness that was neither severe nor mild.

The other three also encountered several strange and unusual incidents.

If it wasn’t having nightmares in the dead of night, it was hearing the sound of water coming from the toilet or suddenly seeing red palm prints on the mirror.

Xu Li, who had a weaker disposition, saw a little ghost playing with a ball at night.

Little ghosts are the most troublesome; they are like human children, always acting on their whims. Seeing that Xu Li could actually see it, the little ghost stubbornly wanted to keep her to stay and play with it.

If it weren’t for the Evil Ghost of the original owner following at her side, Xu Li might have been led away by a little ghost.

The original owner also helped her resolve this disaster because Xu Li’s body was infiltrated with yin energy due to her own reasons, inadvertently opening the yin eye.

Originally, once the forty-nine days passed, during the yin hour on a yin day, her abilities would return and she would be able to break free from the constraints of the contract and leave.

Since the founding of the country, there had always been a promotion of science, opposing feudal superstitions.

Aside from the older generation who believed in ghosts and deities, very few of the new generation did.

Therefore, when these girls clamored about seeing ghosts, no one took them seriously, and Mu Chun from the neighboring dormitory had already started to avoid them from afar the moment she saw the silhouette of the original owner.

At this time, the unnoticed fellow student Nangong Dao stepped forward and expressed his belief in them.

Xue Rou and the others were very touched in their hearts.

Especially since he said he could help them resolve this troublesome matter, Nangong Dao’s figure immediately appeared to them as very heroic and lofty.

To say Nangong Dao was just a regular sophomore at the Mingrui University Department, he was able to enter Mingrui because of his good academic performance and was specially recruited by the school.

In fact, his family background wasn’t great, he had a very simple lifestyle, and even his appearance was mediocre. Apart from when exam week results came out, he was usually overlooked and forgotten by others at all other times.

It was only during the morning readings that he accidentally fell into the pond, and after being rescued, he seemed to have become a different person.

He even had the courage to approach the Four School Flowers.

To everyone’s surprise, he was successful.

He successfully made the School Flowers see him in a new light.

The original owner had always been following Xue Rou and the others, observing very clearly that this male student’s soul did not match his body.

Clearly, he had been possessed by mountain spirits and wild ghosts from who knows where.

What was more infuriating was that this spirit intended to use her to curry favor with several girls.

The original owner initially didn’t take it seriously, as she was close to becoming a Ghost Immortal, if any wild ghost could easily devour her, she wouldn’t have reached such a Realm.

Even in her weakened state, it was impossible.

But what the original owner didn’t expect was that the wild ghost she thought she was facing was actually Nangong Dao, known as the last great fortune-teller of the Republic Period.

He had a myriad of methods for dealing with ghosts and also had opened the Heavenly Eye.

The original owner was dealt with like this, and the four girls, out of gratitude for saving their lives, saw Nangong Dao in a different light, becoming entangled with him.

Nangong Dao’s reputation, with the promotion from Xue Rou and the others, also spread.

Gaining both fame and fortune, his appearance became more and more handsome, and he became a very famous master, even the top circles of power paid a hefty sum to invite him to calculate the nation’s Luck.

The original owner’s memories ended here.

When she was dealt with by Nangong Dao, her soul was not scattered, but her consciousness was preserved through his secret method and kept intact.

The original owner’s appearance was not bad, and compared to Xue Rou and the others, she was on a higher level.

Nangong Dao was reluctant to part with the original owner’s beauty, merely stating that if she agreed to become his Ghost Servant, in due time he could find her a suitable body so that she could return to the Mortal World.

What the original owner hated most was this kind of man who fancied himself deeply affectionate; she would rather self-destruct her ghost body than comply with him.

Su Li’s lips twitched, according to the pattern in the original owner’s memories, under the radiant shine of modernism, Nangong Dao was probably set to open a harem.

What pure maiden, underworld lady, rich heiress, daughter of the powerful, each more prestigious than the last, then all fall for Nangong Dao like brainless fools.
