Chapter 1777 Master, I’m back!

From the moment you step into Howling Ghost Ridge.

Nüba's expression was changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her pupils reflected two different colors, and her expression began to become painful.

Lin Ji Chen noticed the change in her expression and thought there was hope, so he continued to lead her deeper into the Howling Ghost Ridge.

There should have been hundreds of ghosts roaming at night in Ghost Ridge. After smelling the scent of human cultivators, they should have rushed out and devoured Lin Jichen completely.

The strange thing is that today all the evil spirits here seemed to be on a collective holiday, and none of them showed up.

It’s not that they didn’t notice Lin Ji Chen. On the contrary, they sensed his presence when he was still outside.

The only reason they didn't show up was that they really wanted to save their lives, so they just hid in their own nests, shivering and praying that Lin Ji Chen would leave as soon as possible.

Lin Ji Chen brought Nuba all the way to the deepest part and stopped in front of an abandoned watchtower in an ancient battlefield.

It was here that he encountered the kind-hearted spirit of Nüba.

Sure enough, when Nüba walked here, her reaction became particularly strong.

Lin Ji Chen tried to walk out of her sight and found that she was no longer out of control like before.

Feeling that there was a chance, he decided to step up his efforts and left temporarily, leaving her alone.

Nüba did not leave, nor did she go crazy. She just looked at the scene in front of her, with her expression constantly changing.

When he appeared again, a female ghost stumbled out from the darkness.

This female ghost was wearing the same blood-red wedding dress as Xiao Wan, but her appearance was far inferior to Xiao Wan's. However, she was still quite pretty.

The female ghost in red hurriedly escaped from the darkness and kept running towards the watchtower, looking back from time to time, as if she was very frightened of the thing behind her.

Not long after, a bunch of evil spirits really appeared behind her, and they all chased after the female ghost.

"Stop! Don't try to run!"

"It's your good fortune that the Ghost Emperor has taken a liking to you. If you don't know what's good for you, take him back and let him deal with you!"

"The wedding day is coming soon, the bride can't run away."

"Hahaha, the Ghost Emperor is already chasing you from behind, let's see where you can run."

...

These evil spirits laughed wildly and kept chasing after him.

And Nüba on the watchtower looked at this scene and her expression became dull again.

However, unlike the complete outage before, this time there was light in her eyes, and a different look, complex and changeable.

The scene off the field continued.

"Haha! Don't scare my bride!"

The most powerful ghost among them laughed fiercely and turned into a ball of black mist. It instantly caught up with the female ghost in red and blocked her way.

"Don't come over here, I won't marry you!"

The female ghost sat down on the ground in fear and backed away repeatedly.

This instead aroused the evil spirit's desire even more.

"My dear, why don't you believe me? I am infatuated with you. Ever since I passed by the Red Land, I fell in love with you at first sight. I brought you to the Howling Ghost Ridge to marry you."

"My lady, you can rest assured. As long as you marry me, you will be the queen of Howling Ghost Ridge. I will take care of you for the rest of your life and make you the happiest female ghost in the world!"

The evil ghost tried to trick the female ghost but still failed to get her to agree. He immediately lost his patience and grinned.

"Since my wife doesn't know what's good for her, don't blame me. Take her away and get married tonight! Hahaha!"

At this moment, Lin Ji Chen appeared in time. He was holding a dark ancient sword in his hand. With a casual slash, the evil ghost was killed instantly on the spot.

The ghosts around were frightened and turned pale.

A fierce ghost trembled and said: "Senior... didn't you say that we were just acting and wouldn't kill us..."

Lin Jichen stood there holding the sword, a trace of embarrassment on his face. He coughed lightly and said, "I didn't control my strength. Sorry."

"Then...are you still going to continue?"

"Go on, of course."

"But you killed the groom, so the script can't go on..."

Lin Jichen said nonchalantly: "It's okay, change another ghost to take over, hurry up, if you mess up, I will kill you all."

The ghosts were frightened and quickly continued the show.

Lin Ji Chen looked at his masterpiece in front of him, then looked at the figure on the watchtower, praying that this method would work.

These ghosts were the 'extras' he had just captured. He gave them a script and told them to act according to it. If they messed up, there was no NG to start over. If they messed up, they would die.

Just like that, under Lin Jichen's 'kind and amiable' 'persuasion', these evil spirits all cooperated, and each of them seemed to be possessed by a spirit of drama, and their acting was so realistic.

If he didn't know it was impossible, he would have thought that these ghosts were all from Hengdian...

The script continues.

Lin Ji Chen finally drove away the evil ghost and rescued the female ghost in red.

"I will never forget your kindness in saving my life, and I hope you will not despise me. I am willing to work like a slave and serve you like a servant."

"Really?"

"Absolutely true!"

"Well, then, you will sign a ghost servant contract with me. From now on, I will call you Xiao Wan, and you will call me Master."

"Okay, Lord Silver~"

Lin Ji Chen's mouth twitched. My goodness, this is a female ghost with a northern accent. She wouldn't ruin the atmosphere of the script with just one sentence.

The female ghost did not realize that something was wrong. Instead, she seemed to be possessed. She clung to Lin Ji Chen, snuggled up to him, and even took the initiative to sign a soul contract with him.

She was very happy to meet such a powerful human cultivator who was both strong and handsome and to be his ghost servant.

Seeing her actions, Lin Ji Chen was about to scold the actor for "changing the script privately", but unexpectedly a figure suddenly flew down from the watchtower and landed in front of the female ghost.

This female ghost had no idea about Nüba's identity and thought she was just an ordinary female ghost like her. She thought she was jealous and was stealing the show, so she started scolding her.

"Get lost! If you try to steal my silver, I'll kill you!"

However, this sentence brought her fatal disaster. Nüba's eyes flashed with anger. She raised her hand and waved it, and the "heroine" turned into ashes on the spot.

Lin Ji Chen had no time to feel sorry for her, but instead stared straight at Nüba in front of him.

Nüba was also looking at him at this time, and the two of them looked at each other.

puff~

Nüba suddenly smiled, with bright eyes, white teeth, and as gentle as water.

"Master, I'm back."

Lin Ji Chen was stunned for a few seconds, then he was so surprised that he couldn't believe it.

Succeeded?

"Really? Are you really Xiao Wan?" he asked nervously.

Xiao Wan smiled lovelyly, her pretty face full of sweetness and tenderness.

"Of course it's true, Master, Xiao Wan misses you so much~"

After saying that, she took the initiative to throw herself into Lin Ji Chen's arms, just like the clingy little ghost girl before.

The expressions, movements, and behaviors are exactly the same.

With these unique characteristics of Xiao Wan, the cold and aloof Ghost Emperor Nuba would never be able to achieve them even if she was beaten to death.

Lin Jichen finally believed that Xiao Wan was really back! This was his little ghost servant! There was no doubt about it!
