Bai Moxue was amused by his demeanor. âAlright.â
âUm, could you please be gentle? I donât have much experience.â
âPfft! Youâre a few years older than me, shouldnât I be the one asking you that?â
âYouâre right, that makes sense. But donât worry, Iâm the great benefactor Ximen, being gentle is no problem for me.â Luo Sheng put on an air of a mighty man.
âGentle?â Bai Moxue smiled as she gazed at him.

âStop, stop, stop! No more! No more!â
âSpiritual Recovery!â
âŚ
âAgain? No more, right?â
âHiss⌠Holy Light Technique!â

In the evening, by the window.
Bai Moxue sat quietly at the dressing table.
The bronze mirror reflected the young womanâs features. A faint blush appeared on her face, white as congealed cream.
She picked up a stick of pure red lip rouge, blinked her eyes, and applied a light red tint to her lips. The fragrant color was alluring, especially the bright vermilion of her heart-shaped eyebrows, which made her appear even more elegant and beautiful.
She coiled her braid atop her head, securing it with a hairpin.
It was the hairstyle of a young bride who had become a wife, along with that mature charm.
Although they hadnât officially married or formally entered the household, they had already consummated their relationship as husband and wife.
Meanwhile, Luo Sheng lay on the bed like a dead dog, too exhausted to move.
He wore an expression of severe depletion.
In that fierce storm of battle, he had lost 5 kilograms.
He had completely used up one ăSpiritual Recoveryă card and one ăHoly Light Techniqueă card, barely clinging to life. This girl was too wild.
She had nearly taken his old life.
Fortunately, he was a Card Master. Otherwise, they could have erected a tombstone at the head of the bed.
âSigh, I never thought thereâd be a day when Iâd be âinsertedâ by cards, and it came so soon. My purity is gone just like that, wuwuâŚâ
Luo Sheng wiped away a few tears of grievance.
This situation had completely exceeded his expectations. He never imagined his Number One would be given to a female ghost. It was utterly unexpected!
Well, he admitted he envied Ning Caichen.
Indeed, you simply cannot understand the joy of an undead knight!This chapter was copied from novelpiâng.com without permission.
âI apologize, Iâve only just become a ghost, so I couldnât control myself. But donât worry, my husband, Iâll practice well and master a reasonable pace. Shall we try again?â
Bai Moxue revealed a girlish smile and stuck out her tongue slightly.
Her movements were very graceful, and she lightly covered her red lips with her red sleeve, elegant and refined.
âAgain?â
Luo Shengâs scalp instantly went numb, and he looked ready to flee.
âIâm joking. Would you like me to give you a massage? I learned a bit of medicine when I was young. Consider it compensation, after all, I feel that not only has my body recovered, but my strength has also increased greatly.â Bai Moxue said.
âThen Iâll trouble you with that.â
Luo Sheng had been worrying about this. He didnât expect to get free labor, which would save him the money for a professional massage.
But before they could start, suddenly, both of them frowned, sensing a vague aura approaching.
Bai Moxue blurted out, âItâs the Ghost Kingâs scouts. They must be looking for us.â
Luo Sheng got up, âIâll go take care of them.â
âNo need, let me handle it. I want to familiarize myself with my abilities.â
Bai Moxue also stood up and took out a pair of golden scissors from her sleeve. The scissors now gleamed even brighter.
It seemed to be her signature weapon, nurtured by her power.
âUm, wonât your bridal gown hinder you?â Luo Sheng had been wanting to ask about her wide and heavy bridal robe for a while.
âIndeed it will, but I have a solution.â
Bai Moxue used the scissors to cut away half of the heavy bridal robe, removing all the unnecessary frills and decorations.
Instantly she was lightly equipped, her figure much more nimble. Occasionally, the shape of her beautiful body and her fair, rosy skin could be glimpsed under the clothes, captivating the eye.
âHow does it look? Good?â
ââŚâ
Indeed, when women become stronger, they use less fabric.
âŚ
The two quietly left the room.
On a rooftop, they discovered the two ghost scouts wearing tattered leather armor. They must have been soldiers in life.
âThey probably wouldnât escape to this remote town, right?â
âWho knows? Letâs just search a bit and be done with it.â
âI was thinking the same. Letâs just go through the motions and report back.â
The two ghost soldiers chatted idly.
As they were looking around, suddenly a large amount of red silk appeared from all directions, trapping them.
From the shadows, Bai Moxue and Luo Sheng appeared.
Seeing the two, the ghost soldiers were stunned. One ghost soldier cursed at the other: âYou jinx! Whatever you say comes true!â
âI didnât mean to.â
The other ghost soldier lowered his head.You are reading on noveâlping.com, the official source.
Bai Moxue came before them, waving the golden scissors, and questioned, âAre you sent by the ox-headed monster under the Ghost King? Where is he now?â
The two ghost soldiers looked at the gleaming golden scissors and gulped.
They said timidly, âWe were indeed sent by General Ox Head, but please donât kill us. Weâll tell you everything.â
They were so frightened by Bai Moxue that they had already thrown loyalty to the wind.
After the two soldiersâ account, they learned that:
About last night, after Luo Sheng and Bai Moxue escaped,
The Ghost King flew into a rage and ordered General Ox Head to capture her for soul-whipping at all costs.
So, General Ox Head sent out many scouts to search everywhere, and they were assigned to this area.
âWhere is that ox-headed monsterâs headquarters? How many subordinates does he have, and whatâs his strength like?â Luo Sheng interjected.
He wanted to resolve the ox-headed monster in one go, causing the Ghost King to lose a great general.
In this way, they could gradually weaken the Ghost Kingâs power.
Until one day when they could truly kill the Ghost King, only then could Bai Moxue find liberation and no longer be hunted, living a free life.
âTheyâre near the Yama Ghost Temple,â the other ghost soldier answered.
At this point, Bai Moxue suddenly frowned.
She seemed to sense something, and immediately asked, âWhy are they at the Yama Ghost Temple? What are they trying to do?â
âWhat kind of place is the Yama Ghost Temple?â
Luo Sheng also asked.
Although he possessed cards, it didnât mean he was familiar with everything in the card world.
Then Bai Moxue explained to him.
The Yama Ghost Temple was essentially the King of Hellâs temple, but currently, the King of Hellâs whereabouts were unknown, and his temple had been abandoned for a long time, with no one paying attention to it.
However, inside the Yama Ghost Temple, there were exorcism barriers.
Generally, demons, monsters, and ghosts would feel fear upon entering, especially the ghosts from the underworld, because the King of Hell specifically countered minor ghosts.
So a strange phenomenon occurred: the Yama Ghost Temple was a ghost temple, yet it made minor ghosts very afraid, not much different from a divine temple.
However, the Ghost King wasnât truly a ghost who had obtained divine status.
He was more like a wild ghost who had gradually grown powerful through evil techniques, becoming a local tyrant among ghosts. Therefore, the Yama Ghost Temple could also interfere with him.
At this point, the two ghost soldiers honestly said:
âBecause itâs rumored that thereâs a small vault of the underworld there, storing the King of Hellâs methods and secret techniques, so it has attracted many monsters.
The Ghost King led General Ox Head there to wait for the small vault of the underworld to open. Thatâs why they casually sent us small soldiers to search for you.â
âDoor?â
Luo Sheng discovered the key point!
