Chapter 48: Chapter 46: Don’t Make a Fuss
Feng Mingyu inexplicably made the atmosphere very tense.
"Weren’t you saying in the car that you weren’t afraid of ghosts?" Mo Lin asked Feng Mingyu.
"Sorry... I won’t pretend next time."
Under normal circumstances, Feng Mingyu is not afraid of ghosts.
She usually encounters ghosts and has nothing to fear.
But when with Mo Lin, it’s very ridiculous, the ghosts encountered are some very horrifying ones.
She walked less than ten meters with Mo Lin, and she had already seen three skeletons.
Can’t help but be scared!
This is the fear of death.
"I’ll summon the Contract Ghost to protect you, don’t be so jumpy," Mo Lin said to Feng Mingyu slowly.
"Okay, okay.." Feng Mingyu nodded her head like a little chicken pecking rice.
"Chen Xi.. Chu Xing.."
Two ghost shadows slowly appeared.
Two Nightmare Level ghosts.
"Ah... ah... this... this... this...."
Clearly said she wouldn’t be jumpy, but Feng Mingyu seemed to haven’t listened at all.
Not only is she jumpy, but she’s also very excited.
"What are you doing?" Mo Lin was speechless because of Feng Mingyu.
If he doesn’t summon ghosts to protect her, she’s startled.
If he summons ghosts to protect her, she’s still startled.
Is Mo Lin summoning ghosts in vain?
"No... you...." Feng Mingyu isn’t faking being startled.
She’s mainly too shocked.
Mo Lin actually has three Contract Ghosts.
This made Feng Mingyu too surprised.
She had previously thought Mo Lin only had two Contract Ghosts.
But now she understands that Mo Lin actually has three Contract Ghosts.
If it was just three Contract Ghosts, that would be fine.
But two of the Contract Ghosts are Nightmare Level.
The more crucial thing is... Mo Lin actually has three Contract Ghosts.
It’s not scientific.
Normally, people only have up to two Contract Ghosts, how come Mo Lin has three?
Feng Mingyu was too shocked, hence the dramatic reaction.
"How can there be three Contract Ghosts?" Feng Mingyu asked Mo Lin incredulously.
"Look at you, acting like you’ve never seen the world, it’s just three ghosts, can you not make a fuss?" Mo Lin retorted.
"Just... actually.. three... okay.." Feng Mingyu was really shocked.
Not scientific but understandable.
Three Contract Ghosts are just three.
Anyway, she, a mortal, doesn’t understand.
So envious... Two Nightmare Level Contract Ghosts, envy fiercely.
Feng Mingyu herself is only a Level 2 Ghost-Controlling Master, her Contract Ghost, is just a pitiful Danger Level, vastly different from Mo Lin’s Contract Ghosts.
Completely not on the same level.
"Envious?"
"Mm.." Feng Mingyu nodded truthfully.
"Give me some Netherworld Currency, I can help you upgrade your Contract Ghost," Mo Lin said slowly.
"Really?"
Feng Mingyu shouted excitedly: "How much Netherworld Currency?"
"Ten thousand Netherworld Currency, I’ll help you raise the Contract Ghost to Dangerous Level."
"Great.. Thank you so much, I’ll get the Netherworld Currency for you as soon as I get back," Feng Mingyu said excitedly.
Dangerous Level, that means Level 3 Ghost.
Then she’ll be a Level 3 Ghost-Controlling Master.
Hahaha.. just thinking about it is exciting.
"Can you stop being so jumpy?" Mo Lin said helplessly.
"Okay, I’ll shut up now." Feng Mingyu indicated she wouldn’t speak by covering her mouth with her right hand.
With two Nightmare Level ghosts beside her, Feng Mingyu was at least not as scared.
Mo Lin and Feng Mingyu proceeded to walk forward, arriving at the location of a hill.
Mo Lin stopped and said to Feng Mingyu, "Stay here, you don’t have to come with me."
"Okay." Feng Mingyu nodded in agreement.
Mo Lin sensed a very terrifying ghost on the hill, at least above Nightmare Level.
The more powerful the ghost, the more terrifying their appearance.
Mo Lin could even imagine the expression of Feng Mingyu’s exclamation if she saw that ghost.
To prevent Feng Mingyu from scaring herself, Mo Lin decided to leave Feng Mingyu here and go up alone.
Mo Lin left Chu Xing to protect Feng Mingyu and took Chen Xi up the hill.
A gust of cold wind blew over the hill, dropping the temperature quickly.
A bit cold.. the wind on Mo Lin’s cheeks felt icy.
Soon, Mo Lin saw at the top of the hill, a woman standing there seemingly looking into the distance.
This woman slowly turned her head to look at Mo Lin.
A pair of hollow eye sockets, along with a rotting puss-filled face.
She was wearing only a very thin gauze dress, barefoot, with rotting feet.
Floating in the air.
The moment he saw this female ghost, Mo Lin was glad he didn’t bring Feng Mingyu along.
The female ghost floated towards Mo Lin.
"Hey.. have you seen my clothes and shoes?"
"No... you won’t find my clothes and shoes either." The ghost turned back to the position she was standing before, resuming her action of looking into the distance upon seeing Mo Lin without anything in his hands.
"Name: Yu
Realm: Nightmare Level
Skill: Strike (Condenses Ghost Qi to deliver a lethal blow, damage depends on the user’s strength.)
Mo Lin liked this ghost skill.
Currently, Mo Lin only has one offensive ghost skill, the Soul Chain.
Coincidentally lacking an offensive ghost skill, didn’t expect an offensive ghost skill to arrive so quickly.
Moreover, Mo Lin needs to capture a few ghosts to upgrade the Ghost Suppression Book.
This ghost didn’t have any aggression; she didn’t attack Mo Lin.
Mo Lin rushed forward, placing his right hand on the female ghost’s head, attempting to subdue this female ghost.
Unexpectedly, the ghost had no reaction.
Subjugation failed.
This was unprecedented.
The silent female ghost suddenly spoke.
"Help me find my clothes and shoes, and I’ll be willing to leave with you."
The woman’s voice was sharp.
Only then did Mo Lin understand why the Ghost Suppression Book couldn’t subdue this female ghost; it was because she was resisting.
Her obsession was too strong.
If her obsession wasn’t resolved, there was no way to subdue her.
"Where are your clothes and shoes?"
Mo Lin definitely couldn’t agree readily; he needed to first determine the general location of her clothes and shoes.
What if the shoes and clothes were very far away?
The ghost pointed towards Yun Chuan City, "Right there."
If it’s in Yun Chuan City, it’s manageable.
"Alright, I’ll help you find your clothes and shoes, send me out then." As soon as Mo Lin finished his words.
The surrounding scene changed.
The white mist dissipated.
Everything returned to normal.
As if this ghost never appeared at all.
Feng Mingyu was squatting on the ground at this time, feeling bored, using her right hand to doodle on the ground with a twig.
Seeing the white mist disperse, she understood that the issue had been resolved.
"Caught that ghost? What level?" Feng Mingyu gossipily asked Mo Lin.
"Didn’t catch it." Mo Lin answered calmly.
"Ah... Didn’t catch the ghost, why did the white mist disappear?"
"I promised that ghost something, so he’s willing to let us leave." Mo Lin answered calmly.
Immediately after speaking, Mo Lin hurriedly used his hand to cover Feng Mingyu’s mouth, "Don’t be jumpy..."
Quick on his feet, Mo Lin stopped Feng Mingyu as soon as he saw she was about to be jumpy again.
This prevented Feng Mingyu from exclaiming out loud.
But she still showed a surprising emotion.
Incomprehensible.
How come Mo Lin could communicate normally with ghosts?
Under normal circumstances, ghosts don’t communicate with people.
Unless a human has made a contract with a ghost, communication will occur.
She always discovers surprising things about Mo Lin.
She remembers when she first met Mo Lin, she was utterly shocked by him.
