Zhang Ling’s family of three have never officially visited An Rugu, but they happened to be free recently, so they decided to take this opportunity to go to Cloud Rise Temple to burn incense.

They walked up to Cloud Rise Mountain happily, but when they saw who was inside the Daoist temple, they were frightened to the point of their souls wanting to leave their bodies.`

A beautiful-looking woman was tidying things at the entrance of the Taoist temple. Even if the exposed face turned into ashes, they knew she was the evil ghost who wanted to seduce their son’s soul!

This female ghost had used magic to immobilize them and wanted to seduce their son’s soul, which was still very vivid in their minds.

They were shocked and had gone pale.

Why was that female ghost in the Daoist temple? Hasn’t she been purified by the master yet?

Shang Yue heard the noise and turned to look at them—which made them even more frightened!

The couple immediately hugged their son and wrapped their arms around him like two koalas, for fear that their son would be abducted by the vicious evil spirit.

“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, mommy will protect you!”

“Even if we die, our family will die together!”

Wang Ke: “…”

There was really no need for this.

Wang Ke sighed, “This is a Daoist temple, and the master is inside. Don’t panic.”

Zhang Ling and his wife then remembered this and put down their arms in embarrassment, but they still didn’t dare to come closer to the Daoist temple. After all, there was a female ghost there who looked capable of devouring their son.

When An Rugu heard the commotion, she walked to the doors of the Daoist temple and comforted the still-trembling guests, “It’s okay, she won’t hurt anyone. You can come in.”

In this strange world, An Rugu was the couple’s only support.

The two of them agreed and walked into the Daoist temple step by step. When they took a closer look, they were shocked by the scene in front of them.

The ferocious female ghost was communicating with other people like a normal person, and even guided others on how to burn incense. “Burn three incense sticks at a time. You can watch me first and do it the same way.”

Zhang Ling and her husband: “…”

Could it be that this was just a person who looked exactly like the female ghost from before?

Just when they were doubting their life, Wang Ke seemed to have made up his mind. He walked to Shang Yue who was free at the time, took her hand, and led her away.

The two walked out of the main courtyard and headed to a more remote area.

Husband and wife: “???”

The two of them quickly followed behind, clinging to the door frame and quietly peering inside, for fear that their son would be eaten by the female ghost.

Wang Ke didn’t know that his parents had followed him and raised his hand to scratch his head. He had been very troubled during this period. He found out that he had a wife in his previous life, and this wife even came to visit him. His wife’s love for him in his previous life was so strong that it made his heart tremble, and he couldn’t help but feel a little moved.

He was sorry for his current girlfriend because he has been so distracted recently, but he couldn’t control his heart. One was a fiery red rose, and the other was a gentle and tranquil white rose. This was a difficult choice that countless people faced all the time.

Previously, Wang Ke thought that Shang Yue had been purified by An Rugu, so he decided to stay with the white rose.

But today, he suddenly discovered that Shang Yue had not been purified after all, and she was still alive and well, which inevitably touched his heart.

He looked at Shang Yue’s beautiful face and felt a little flushed. He stumbled and said what was in his heart, “Since you like me so much, maybe we can get to know each other better. I want to know what happened in our previous life to make you so attached to me.” 

Zhang Ling and his wife who were eavesdropping: “!!!”

Zhang Ling and his wife almost couldn’t hold back and wanted to rush out to interrupt their son.

Was he crazy? Their son was actually contemplating having an affair with this ghost??

Wang Ke thought that his goodwill would make Shang Yue overjoyed. After all, she liked him so much before that she would go to hell just to take his soul away.

However, the person in front of him had a subtle look on her face, her eyes were erratic, and she didn’t answer for a long time.

Wang Ke: “???”

Shang Yue looked deeply at Wang Ke’s face and sighed after realizing that she could no longer feel the slightest ripple in her heart. “We didn’t have much in our past life. To put it simply, it was probably because of me.”

Wang Ke: “???”

With a trace of… disdain in her eyes, Shang Yue looked at Wang Ke up and down, from head to toe, as if she was picking pork from the market. 

She shook her head, as if his figure before her made her unable to bear to look at him any longer. “Alas, you are completely different from before, and the temperament that made my heart move is gone. Sure enough, the person who drank Meng Po’s soup is not the same person before and after. “

As if she had thought of something, she fumbled in her pocket for a while, took out some banknotes, and put them in Wang Ke’s hand. “I heard that you are getting married. This is my gift money, and it is also… I heard there is a modern thing called ‘mental damage fee’?”

This was the salary An Rugu paid her. She usually had nothing to spend on, so she simply saved everything.

Wang Ke: “…”

After saying that, Shang Yue left the yard, glancing at the panicked couple standing just outside the door. Seeing that there was no one around, she raised her hands and dug out her eyeballs. The eye sockets were bloody, which made the couple shriek in fright.

A nasty smile appeared on Shang Yue’s face, and she slowly stuffed her eyes back in, feeling very proud of herself.

Before An Rugu, she had to pretend to be a human being and deal with all the mortals who came to the Daoist temple to offer incense. This sometimes made her forget that she was a ghost and often she really regarded herself as a human being.

This was right. She was, in fact, a big boss ghost with powerful magic who could control the life and death of others!

However, at this moment, a voice as cool and clear as running water hitting rocks came, “Don’t scare the pilgrims.”

Shang Yue was choked immediately and had to leave angrily.

Zhang Ling and her husband’s gazes immediately changed when they saw An Rugu. Such a terrifying female ghost obeyed the master’s words!

Too strong, the master was too strong!
