Probably one of the most unbelievable things that happened for quite a while was Gu Mochou not doing anything malicious to Fan Zheng and that Zhang boy. At most, she only made herself known to them. The worst was already frequently setting up seemingly coincidental encounters with them and sometimes ruining some dates or plans. Just like what Jiang Li did who made sure to show his face to the villainess from time to time as to not be forgotten. Months passed like this in peace. It was so peaceful that it…-

If one's unfilial daughter ran away and stole his money, what should a poor father from a very remote village do? Also, if malicious people abducted the children from their village, what should they also do? Of course, report to the police! For Zhao Guo, it did not matter that he was the head of a village full of sinners, or that everyone had indirectly cooperated with trafficking by being the buyers. He was wronged! They were deceived! So, justice should be demanded! With this unreasonable logic…

Somehow, a few more days passed and the female ghost supposed to haunt Zhao Ai appeared while Zhan Rong and Gu Mochou were away from the city. The ghost lady managed to stir some troubles before getting wiped away by Fan Zheng who had sought the help of somebody from the sect. Actually, the ones to take care of the ghost lady with Fan Zheng should have been the group of three disciples from before. But they died, so the plot autocorrected it and made one of their seniors come in their stead. Things became…

On that particular morning, several changes happened in Haowen Town and only people like Zhan Rong and beings like Jiang Li sensed it. Only they felt the tension slowly filling up the air. Gu Mochou was one of them. She felt that the streets became cleaner, with dirty things out of sight, yet the atmosphere was heavier because the ghosts were depressed. Aa storm was secretly brewing and its scale might reach the capital. She knew that the reason was the monks that began to take control of the local…

"She murdered people!" To his question, the other ghost replied. "All from that scary and hateful spirit hunting sect!" That answer… This was his second time hearing it yet the impact did not lessen. He couldn't respond for a while as he was still stunned, badly at that. Amongst the female villains that he met before, which one had truly killed somebody? Jiang Li went through his foggy memory and immediately came with an answer. None. At least before he came to this world. He began to shake his…

On that night when Zhan Rong began to consider befriending some ghosts to later make them do some espionage work for her, Jiang Li was jumping from houses to houses after dealing with the corrupt city mayor who suddenly got a heart attack. He was pretty unbiased towards his victims. As a fairly powerful poltergeist, every time he switched targets, he began with the usual 'drop some cutleries first... then bang the door loudly or twist the faucet so the kitchen or bathroom will be flooded... make the bulbs…

Confronted with something so odd and shocking, Zhao Ai also froze for a while and almost forgot she was there to hail a cab. Yet when she did remember, instead of fetching her co-worker who was waiting patiently for her at the entrance of the mart, she chivalrously picked up the unconscious guy lying in the cold hard ground. This she did without hesitation, her face wreathed in righteousness that made her appear so holy and pure in the eyes of the onlookers. "Please make way! We don't even have time to…

Zhao Ai worriedly gazed at Fan Zheng's back as they walked into the house. The man looked absent-minded. Before he climbed up the stairs, he didn't even turn his head when he spoke. "I will work on my projects so don't disturb me until dinner." 'Is he affected by what Zhan Rong said?' At the thought that immediately popped up after hearing his words, she unconsciously pursed her lips before lowering her head and uttering a "yes". She didn't know what else to do. Therefore, she only watched him…

It was a sunny afternoon and on the streets, especially on the ones in or around the city center, people come and go undeterred by the scorching weather. Some were trotting with quick steps to get into shops and large buildings that had air-conditioners. Hours ago, around lunchtime, Fan Zheng and the others were part of this bunch. "Boss Fu is already at the warehouse." Suddenly a voice rang. A ragged, battered kid with several bruises on his young body looked up with a numb expression at the large man…

On the following days, Zhan Rong could be seen summoning the panel only to glare at it full of resentment. She suffered two weeks for it. The pet was supposed to be her reward and she was doing well with spoiling it by giving it expensive stuff, why was it recalled? It was unfair! "I hope whoever created you die a very painful death." She couldn't help but say enormously after accepting the fact that she was helpless against it. Zhan Rong then closed her eyes and sighed before deciding to go out and find…
