Chapter 223: Chapter 223 Female Ghost Chapter 223: Chapter 223 Female Ghost After they got off the plane, Lu Yichen, Zhong Niangyao, and their party went straight to the hotel.

This time, they were in Mandalay, the biggest Gambling Stone Market in Myanmar, and they had booked the biggest five-star hotel in the area.

Lu Yichen escorted Zhong Niangyao into the room and then planned to leave.

Having been on the flight for so long, everyone was tired and needed a good rest.

However, just as Lu Yichen was about to leave, an unexpected event occurred. No matter what he did, he couldn’t open the door. At the same time, the lights in the room began to flicker.

Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao exchanged glances without saying much and made their way to the sofa, where they comfortably sat down.

The lights in the room continued to flicker relentlessly, and soon, a bright red liquid started to trickle down the clean white walls, much like fresh blood, which was particularly unsettling.

Normally, people would have been shaking with fear by now or frantically trying to flee the room. However, the two people in the room acted as if nothing had happened, sitting leisurely as Zhong Niangyao even took out her phone to play.

Soon, a harrowing scream filled the room, accompanying the flickering lights and the blood seeping down the walls, making it all the more horrifying.

At this point, while playing on her phone, Zhong Niangyao’s face showed signs of impatience, and she spoke irritably, “Shut up. If you have something to say, come out and say it.”

With her words, the piercing scream became louder, coming from all directions, sending shivers down the spine.

The temperature inside the room also dropped, making it impossible for any normal person to remain unharmed in such a room.

Seeing that the hidden ghost remained defiant, a trace of displeasure appeared on Zhong Niangyao’s face.

She didn’t speak again, but raised her hand and drew a Void Talisman, and with a stern shout of “Go!”

As her shout resounded, the talisman bursting into golden light shattered, filling the room with fragments of golden light.

When the golden light dissipated, the lights in the room returned to normal, the blood on the walls had completely vanished, and the terrible scream had stopped.

“Come out.” Zhong Niangyao still sat on the sofa, her expression returning to calm, devoid of earlier irritability, though she still looked formidable.

The room fell into complete silence, so quiet that even the drop of a needle could be heard.

“My patience is limited.” Zhong Niangyao frowned, her tone carrying an unmistakable impatience, “If you don’t come out now, don’t blame me for being rude.”

A slight disturbance appeared in the space, and a figure in red clothes with a pale complexion appeared in the room. She floated directly in front of Zhong Niangyao.

As for Lu Yichen, she didn’t even dare to look him in the eye directly. She didn’t know why, but she felt a natural fear towards that man.

After the woman ghost floated to Zhong Niangyao’s front, she suddenly started bleeding from her facial features and cracks began to appear on her face, making the ghost look even more terrifying; her white dress gradually stained red with blood.

“You’re hideous.” Zhong Niangyao frowned, “You’re literally hurting my eyes with that look. Return to normal now, or I will rip you apart right this moment.”

Upon hearing this, the female ghost was jolted back to her original form.

Although Zhong Niangyao’s tone was light, the ghost felt a certain threat–that if she didn’t comply, the consequences would be unbearable.

“You’re a Heavenly Master.” The female ghost’s tone was light but certain.

In front of Zhong Niangyao, she felt a dangerous aura. The way Zhong Niangyao had drawn the talisman had shocked her deeply. Anyone capable of that was no ordinary being.

Now, what she feared the most was being taken in by the other party.

“Speak!” Zhong Niangyao indifferently demanded, “What are you doing here?”

The female ghost stood there, looking like a child being punished, hesitating, “I… I was just feeling bored, so I wanted to have some fun.”

“Bored?” Zhong Niangyao examined the female ghost and suddenly furrowed her brows with a gleam of realization, “You must’ve been from Hua Country in your lifetime. Why are you here?”

“I was murdered here.”

As if reflecting on a horrifying memory, the female ghost’s complexion drastically changed, her eyes turned blood red, and her black hair started to wildly flutter as if signaling the onset of a transformation.

Seeing this, Zhong Niangyao mentally noted the danger and immediately recited the Heart Clarity Spell while forming a Seal with her hands, swiftly applying it to the female ghost.

The accumulating dark aura on the female ghost vanished instantly, and she reverted to her initial appearance.

Observing the restored calmness of the female ghost, Zhong Niangyao rested her chin on one hand and directly demanded, “Tell me, how did you die?”

“I was killed by a scumbag.”

Though she had regained her composure, the female ghost’s expression was still unpleasant as she recounted the experience of her murder.

“My name is Zhang Jing, and I was only twenty years old when I died. My hometown was a small town in the south. Later, I was accepted to Imperial University and moved to the Imperial Capital for my studies. I thought it was the beginning of a bright future. But little did I expect, it also ended my life there.”

“At Imperial University, I usually worked part-time when I wasn’t in classes to earn some living expenses. Later, while working at a high-end restaurant, I met a young man from a wealthy family.”

“I originally had no intention of dating or climbing the social ladder through marriage. But he pursued me relentlessly, and eventually, I agreed to go on a date with him. Little did I know that on that date, that beast… that beast drugged my drink. When I woke up, we were already in a hotel bed.”

“I originally planned to call the police, but the sleazebag claimed he was drunk, which is why he behaved that way towards me. He also promised to treat me well and marry me after I graduated. He made many promises. In the end, I didn’t want to escalate the issue, also fearing it might bring bad repercussions for myself.”
