Social Animals? My Brother is a Female Empress in the Underworld and Earns 10 Billion a Month!

27: Bai Xuan arrived lateSeeing the flames about to strike, You Xiaoqian had no time to dodge. At the critical moment, a figure flashed past, using a magical tool to block in front of her.

With a ”squelch,” the magical tool shattered, and the person’s clothes were charred, emitting black smoke.

”As expected of a third-rank old ghost, even my ancestral magical tool is broken! Waaah, Master will definitely beat me to death when he gets back.” Yun Song spat out black smoke, closed his eyes, and fell straight to the ground.

”Brother Song, are you okay!” Jiang Yi sprinted a hundred meters from not far away and caught Yun Song.

”I’m fine, I’ll be... okay after lying in bed for... a few months.” Yun Song reached out and patted Jiang Yi’s shoulder haltingly. ”You’re too thin... it’s more comfortable... on your lap.”

”Oh, oh, oh! Okay, Brother Song.” Jiang Yi hurriedly placed Yun Song’s head on his lap.

You Xiaoqian thought reinforcements had arrived, but when she glanced over, she saw someone in a battle-damaged black T-shirt and tight jeans, looking fair and delicate.

Looking at their posture again—one lying unconscious in the other’s arms while the one holding him looked concerned and nervous—it looked like an ambiguous scene no matter how you sliced it. They looked like a pair of close bros who had just graduated from university.

”Yikes! The big shot arrives, and the noob exits.” Du Wenqing rubbed her cheek.

”Oh! He’s just a first-rank Taoist.” You Xiang followed up with a complaint.

”Xiangxiang, how much longer until Minister Bai arrives? His subordinate is about to be beaten into a pancake.” Seeing that the arriving Taoist was unreliable, You Xiaoqian could only brace herself and step up.

”Captain, two more minutes! Hang in there.” You Xiang put away the command token and cheered her on.

Bang, bang, bang... After a few more tail sweeps, You Xiaoqian was beaten black and blue, looking miserable—even Shang Wan Ning wouldn’t recognize her as her own Ghost Officer.

”This Old Lady is going to crack open your skull to see if you’re jealous of This Old Lady’s beauty... You even hit a beautiful girl’s face!”

”Hiss, hiss, hiss! You’re so spicy, Ghost Nightmare!” Ghost Nightmare flicked its snake tongue, mockery at maximum.

”Arrgh! This Old Lady will fight you to the death.”

”You can mock my lack of strength, but you cannot mock this young girl’s beauty.”

You Xiaoqian gave a soft shout and charged toward Ghost Nightmare with all her might. Before she could get close, a rotting stench hit her face, and a faint green light flickered within the thicket.

”Damn! You’re cheating!” You Xiaoqian’s face changed, and she hastily retreated.

Ghost Nightmare took the opportunity to attack, spitting a glob of saliva from its snake mouth straight at You Xiaoqian.

You Xiaoqian shifted her body and dodged the venomous attack, but a large hole was still corroded into her Ghost Officer uniform.

”So stinky! You damn bastard, you actually use corpse poison!” You Xiaoqian said through gritted teeth.

”Hehe, scared? This is my specialty,” Ghost Nightmare said triumphantly.

”Humph, so what if you use poison? This Old Lady isn’t a pushover either!” You Xiaoqian shouted angrily.

She charged forward again to fight Ghost Nightmare... After a few breaths, the green light faded. By this time, You Xiaoqian looked disheveled, and her beautiful long hair had actually been corroded into a pile of ash, drifting away with the wind at the slightest touch.

You Xiaoqian’s eyes widened, and she touched her smooth head in disbelief. ”Minister Bai, you’re overtime. I’m going to file a complaint... Without the Boss’s kisses, hugs, and being lifted high... I won’t get better.” After saying that, she closed her eyes and fell directly to the ground, joining Yun Song.

Just then, the newly awakened Jiang Nan saw the Ghost Officer lady in such a miserable state and fainted again in fright. She muttered, ”Bald... bald...”

”Nannan... Nannan...” In desperation, Du Wenqing had no choice but to raise her palm again... Seeing that the unkillable Ghost Officer cockroach had finally fainted from exhaustion, Ghost Nightmare was overjoyed. It immediately manifested a bone hand and reached toward Jiang Nan.

”Hehehe! My lady, finally no one will disturb us.” Ghost Nightmare laughed smugly.

However, just as that bone hand was halfway there, it was smashed into several pieces by the wailing stick thrown by Bai Xuan.

”Hiss, hiss, hiss...” Ghost Nightmare twisted its snake body, rolling around in pain.

Accompanied by the roar of an exhaust pipe, a luxury Chuanchuan motorcycle slowly drove into the thicket. The person on the bike wore a black leather jacket, short leather boots, and had a crew cut, looking a bit like a delinquent youth—it was Bai Xuan.

Seeing Ghost Nightmare, Bai Xuan shouted, ”Hey! Little ghost! Come here, come to your Grandpa Bai.” After saying that, he parked the bike, kicked down the stand, and walked toward You Xiaoqian.

”Holy crap! Why is she bald?”

”Waaaah... Secretary-General Ling will definitely punish me by making me write a ten-thousand-word self-criticism.” Bai Xuan frowned, his face looking like a constipated emoji.

Ghost Nightmare stopped rolling and, looking insulted, raised its snake tail at Bai Xuan, boastfully saying, ”Jie jie jie... Are you here to seek death?”

Bai Xuan turned gracefully, grabbed the snake’s tail, and performed several back slams, dazing Ghost Nightmare on the spot.

”I’m here to send you to the Underworld... for bullying a pretty lady.”

Then, Bai Xuan rolled up his sleeves and threw a punch at the snake’s head, hitting Ghost Nightmare right in the mouth. Instantly, shredded meat from its snake tongue scattered everywhere.

With a ”thud,” Bai Xuan kneaded the snake body into a ball and slammed it onto the ground. The meatball bounced a few times like a rubber ball.

The bewildered Ghost Nightmare had been a ghost for a while and had seen all kinds of Taoist arts, formations, and magical tools, but this was the first time it had seen a Ghost Officer perform a physical exorcism.

”Grandpa Ghost Officer, I surrender, stop hitting me,” Ghost Nightmare lowered its snake head and begged for mercy.

Bai Xuan moved quickly, pinning the snake head to the ground and grabbing its vital seven-inch spot. ”Too late to surrender! Do you have any idea how out of line you are? You’ve seriously affected my mood for future missions.”

”She’s bald! My Older Sister Type subordinate has become bald.”

”I was wrong, please let me go!”

”Pah, pah, pah... Like I’d believe a ghost!”

Bai Xuan swung the life-reaping hook a few times, hooking Ghost Nightmare’s avatar and putting it into a specially made container.

He picked up the wailing stick from the ground and went to You Xiaoqian’s side to check her injuries.

”Fortunately, she just fainted.” After saying that, he carried You Xiaoqian on his shoulder. He then had the other ghost officers follow the motorcycle with the still-unconscious Jiang Nan and the others.

After a bumpy ride, Bai Xuan finally returned to the building. After settling You Xiaoqian and the others in the infirmary, he went to his office.

”This matter is a bit tricky.” Bai Xuan sat in his chair, and after a moment of reflection, he took out his phone and made a call.

”Boss Bai, you need something?” A lazy voice came from the other end of the line.

”You Wu, help me check Ghost Nightmare’s background and let me know as soon as possible,” Bai Xuan said seriously.

”Got it, Boss Bai.” The other party hung up.

Bai Xuan leaned back in his chair and rubbed his temples.

Not only did he fail to complete the mission perfectly, but he also lost an Older Sister Type Ghost Officer.

”Sigh! What a loss. There are already so few Female Ghost Officers!”
