ing. But how could two spirits have children Your kind of fate and physique are a rare treasure, a vessel I haven't seen in years! Of course, the Ghost King deserves to enjoy it! It’s just… that Jiang...the corresponding price.

If the price is such gentle kisses and hugs, then I'd definitely take your mask off every day to get some smooches and cuddles.

At first, when we didn't know each other well, he thought I had lost the mark he gave me. He was so harsh and impatient with me. Until now, as our relationship deepened and I got to know him better, I realized that not only does he have great willpower, but he can also speak very gently.

Maybe I only hugged the opposite sex when I was just learning to walk—several senior brothers took turns being my horse, and it wasn't uncommon for us to stroll outside together.

But if it's even a little bigger, there's no such treatment anymore! And you get watched like a hawk!

What's early love Do I even have a chance to experience it!

If I were to hold hands with any male classmate on my way home, I bet my fellow students would turn around and investigate that person's entire family tree—ancestors, relatives, the whole nine yards. Then they would tell me: "You're not allowed to date him."

Besides, I've seen so many different kinds of older brothers growing up that I don't have much curiosity about the opposite sex anymore.

But, as for Mu Wanchen... hmm... Let's talk about it after a kiss.

My ears were burning, and he had one hand pressed against my lower back and the other holding the back of my head. The strength in his grip was intense, yet when it came to my lips, his touch was incredibly gentle.

He isn't that scary...

I had a rush of heat in my head as I gently bit his lips.

The talisman fires in the courtyard and by the side gate gradually dimmed, burning away the darkness that had enveloped the house.

I could hear the faint sound of cars in the distance, which felt like a normal environment.

But a scream ripped through the night's stillness, interrupting our intimate embrace.

I heard my senior sister's voice coming from the West Courtyard. I immediately regained my composure and looked at Mu Wanchen.

He lowered his eyes slightly and looked at me, seeming a little displeased. I suddenly interrupted the pleasant atmosphere awkwardly, making things a bit embarrassing.

Before I could delve deeper, fan the flames, so to speak, I became a deserter.

"...Isn't it, there's still danger" I blushed a little and spoke in a weaker tone.

"It's nothing, probably just residue." He whispered, pulling me along. "Come on, let's go and confirm my guess..."

He said this with a frown, it's really great that he wasn't wearing a mask.

"When it's just us, you don't have to wear the mask anymore. It would be great to see your face. At least I wouldn't have to lean in to try and peek." I said.

"Oh" he raised an eyebrow slightly.

Oh my god, did I just… slip up and say too much

He was pulling me out, I felt like I wasn't thinking straight.

My little heart was pounding just now, but after a warm hug, it's now beating strong and steady! DUM DUM DUM DUM DUM! I even feel like I'm floating when I walk.

In the courtyard to the west, my six elder sisters lived in two small courtyards. I heard my gossipy Sixth Sister stomp her foot and scold, "Who is so despicable! Putting something like this, meant to harm people, in our courtyard Which sister's family is performing ancestor worship Why didn't they say anything beforehand Seeing this at night would scare the wits out of anyone!"

Fifth Sister's voice also came from the courtyard. She said in a puzzled tone, "How... how did it only burn halfway The paper man is only half burned"

Paper person

I immediately jogged over. Senior Sisters Five and Six were standing behind the courtyard wall, examining something. Senior Sister Six had probably gone to the restroom in the middle of the night and suddenly saw a white thing behind the bamboo plants by the wall.

She thought it was a plastic bag or tissue blown from somewhere, and walked over to grab it and throw it away.

Who knew, upon pulling it, that it was a paper figure.

She screamed in fright, waking up her Fifth and Fourth Senior Sisters who lived in the same courtyard. Her Fourth Senior Sister went to ask the family members while her Fifth Senior Sister stayed here to study with her.

I dashed in, Mu Wanchen pinched a seal with his finger, covering himself up so the senior sisters couldn't see him.

"Little sister, look at this mess! What kind of person would hide such junk here It's so ominous!" Sixth Sister exclaimed.

Who is that paper man

Now that the magic had faded, its animation and malevolence gone, I saw him for what he truly was: a mere "straw man" propped up by a few ordinary bamboo strips.

This scarecrow just scared me so badly I was running around bumping into things. Now seeing that most of his body has been burned, I feel particularly happy inside.

"Whoever owns it, just burn it. Keeping something like this around to scare people Even throwing it out would frighten others, just burn it." I said to my two senior sisters.

They had the same idea, but since they were all like family living in the house, they wouldn't just burn whatever someone cooked for their loved ones. They wanted to ask each person individually before deciding anything further.

I retreated to the doorway and whispered to Mu Wanchen, "How is it Do you recognize who this paper figure belongs to"

Mu Wanchen nodded slightly and whispered, "It's someone from our Witch King Mountain City."

"What!" I exclaimed, my eyes wide.

"Senior Sister Five looked over and asked, “Junior Sister, are you talking to yourself there Have you gone crazy”

"Mhmm mhmm mhmm…" I pushed Mu Wanchen out of the courtyard and pinned him against the pillars outside, my breath coming in ragged gasps. “You people from Wushi Mountain City The old monster’s mole”

He shook his head and whispered to me, "Someone ran out secretly. I'm going back to deal with this. It should be some witchcraft she learned in her daily studies..."

"Who Have I met them before" I pressed.

Mu Wanchen nodded and said, "Chū Líng, Chū Líng, Lián Lóng's sister."

I widened my eyes, Qilin This person seems familiar to me!

I remember her as a fiery and vivacious girl, but I never spoke a word to her. How could she possibly want to harm me

“This paper figurine technique was part of her usual witchcraft practice. She made a paper figure and put one of the ghosts she raised in it. It was just burned by my talisman, destroying most of it. The ghost escaped and was thrown here at random.” Mu Wanchen answered in a deep voice.

"Damn it, what's she doing Is she jealous Even her own people want to harm me! How can I possibly stay safe!" I said angrily.

Mu Wanchen sighed: "Let's find her first. I'm worried she'll be used by someone. I didn't directly capture the soul and bind the ghost just now, it was to lure out where she's hiding."

This... really didn't expect it! As expected, the people of the Witch Clan each have their own thoughts, and with so many capable individuals, things become complicated.

I was so furious that I stormed back to the small building. Turning to Mu Wanchen, I said, "A ghost and a young woman, both hiding in the shadows trying to harm me! From now on, I won't even dare to close my eyes when I sleep!"

"Hmm... I'll take care of it." Mu Wanchen's voice was calm.

This attitude... drives me crazy....

"You're not leaving tonight!" I glared at him.

He raised an eyebrow, looking over with a questioning expression.

"Old, honest, and trustworthy! These two people can't possibly resent me out of the blue! It must be because of you—"
