Ghost Catching System

Chapter 21: Chapter 21 The Scene is Too Beautiful, I Dare Not Imagine_1

Sadako instantly understood. As expected of a System product, it’s certainly high quality.

”You... you are the Successor of the Ninth Generation Taoist Master?” Sadako shrieked, her voice grating. Though her expression remained terrifying, she was clearly scared.

Ma Wen and the few others who hadn’t fled stared wide-eyed, looking at Chu Hao in utter shock.

”DING... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 3 Pretentiousness Points.”

Chu Hao, Peachwood Sword on his back, maintained a composed posture, exuding the aura of a peak expert. He said indifferently, ”Evil creature, at least you have some discernment.”

Sadako’s expression was fierce, clearly unwilling. ”This man has committed all kinds of evil, bullying men and abusing women! I want to kill them. You might stop me now, but I won’t let them off!”

Ma Wen trembled all over, his face ashen. ”Taoist Master, save me, please!” he cried out.

Chu Hao glanced at him and said calmly, ”This person is indeed despicable and deserves to die.”

Despair overwhelmed Ma Wen. He now deeply regretted provoking Chu Hao. He knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly. ”Taoist Master! Help me! I was wrong! I won’t do evil deeds anymore!”

The others also knelt, their faces etched with fear and horror.

Chu Hao looked at Ma Wen and said coldly, ”Do you know where you went wrong?”

Ma Wen’s voice trembled, his legs shaking uncontrollably. ”I shouldn’t have bullied men and abused women. I’ll change, I’ll definitely change.”

Chu Hao said indifferently, ”Unfortunately, even if I spare you, she will not.”

”You must help me, Taoist Master, I beg you!” Ma Wen kowtowed ceaselessly.

”Taoist Master, we failed to recognize your greatness and offended you. Please, you must help us!” The others also kowtowed, some until their foreheads bled.

Chu Hao waved his hand, effortlessly showing off. Sadako didn’t understand, looking at him dumbfoundedly.

Chu Hao glared at her. So dense, he thought, and then said, ”You may go. If they continue to refuse to acknowledge their errors and change, feel free to come back for them anytime. Next time, I won’t intervene—let them fend for themselves.”

Ma Wen and the others were ecstatic, kowtowing repeatedly. ”Thank you, Taoist Master! Thank you!”

”DING... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 3 Pretentiousness Points.”

Sadako’s expression was somewhat sullen, but she still said, ”Taoist Master, I’m giving you face and will leave now.”

With that, Sadako vanished, and the lights in the parking lot returned to normal.

Ma Wen and his companions sighed in relief, their bodies going limp. Chu Hao turned and walked away.

”Taoist Master, please wait,” Ma Wen called out hastily.

Chu Hao turned, his expression cold. ”What? You still want to fight?”

Ma Wen wouldn’t dare; even with a hundred times more courage, he wouldn’t dream of it! He quickly said, ”No... no, I, Ma Wen, failed to recognize Mount Tai and offended the Taoist Master. I would like to apologize.”

”An apology isn’t necessary. I have other matters to attend to. We shall meet again another day.” Chu Hao waved his hand and walked away without lingering, exuding the detached grace of an otherworldly expert.

”Take care, Taoist Master! Take care!”

「Back in the car,」

A group of girls looked at Chu Hao in disbelief. They had been scared stiff by the female ghost; she was too terrifying. However, as soon as Chu Hao appeared, the female ghost had fled in fear. Such power, such dominance!

Chu Hao touched his nose and said, ”Let’s go.”

”Taoist Master, do you have a girlfriend?”

”Taoist Master, you’re so amazing!”

”So handsome! Someone help me, I’m going to faint from his handsomeness!”

Isn’t that a bit much, for a model to pretend to faint like that? If these girls had merely been curious and enthusiastic about Chu Hao before, now they practically worshipped him, verging on fanatical devotion.

Ji Bingbing hurriedly said, ”Manager Yue, let’s find another KTV! It’s rare to meet a Taoist Master; we have to treat him well today. My treat!”

Manager Yue smiled. ”It’s not your turn to pay. We’ll switch to another place.”

”Oh! Long live Manager Yue!”

Chu Hao looked at Yeye, the model, and said, ”Let’s not. Yeye should go to the hospital for a check-up.”

Yeye’s eyes sparkled. ”Taoist Master, you’re so caring! But Yeye is fine. My top priority today is to thank you properly.”

Alright then! What can I say? I’m just that outstanding. You have to admit it, Chu Hao thought.

So, they went to another venue. Surrounded by beauties, Chu Hao became the center of attention. Everyone wanted to drink with him, leaving him feeling a bit dizzy.

His face flushed, Chu Hao let out a drunken burp and waved his hand. ”I’m not drunk!”

After more heavy drinking and merrymaking with the women, who pulled him into dancing and singing, Luo Yan and Manager Yue also let loose, both becoming rather dizzy.

Ji Bingbing, her eyes glazed over and clearly tipsy, clung to Chu Hao’s arm. ”Taoist Master, you’re drunk. Let me take you home.”

”What are you up to, Ji Bingbing? Are you taking the Taoist Master to his house, or yours?” Yeye protested.

Ji Bingbing stuck out her tongue playfully. ”Why go home? There’s a hotel nearby. Let’s go there to rest.”

Yeye jumped up. ”I want to go too! I don’t trust you, Ji Bingbing. What if you do something to the Taoist Master?”

Ji Bingbing looked at the others, who were mostly drunk. Only she and Yeye were relatively sober. Holding her head, she asked, ”So, what should we do?”

Yeye let out a drunken burp, her face flushed. ”We don’t know where the Taoist Master lives. Let’s take him to a hotel first.”

Ji Bingbing laughed happily. ”What about everyone else?”

Yeye looked a bit sheepish. ”The KTV has luxury suites upstairs. How about... we send everyone up there?”

Ji Bingbing gave a sly smile. ”Good.”

「The next day,」

Chu Hao woke up in a daze to see a pair of long legs. Turning his head, he realized they belonged to Luo Yan, who was sound asleep.

”Damn!” Chu Hao jolted and sat up abruptly.

Then, he saw a scene he would never forget for the rest of his life. That scene.

His heart pounded. He quickly got dressed, sneaked out, hailed a cab, and fled. If I don’t run now, once they wake up, I’ll be courting death!

Leaving the hotel, still immersed in memories of that world of dazzling white skin, Chu Hao felt like he was floating. The world is so colorful; the air has never been this crisp.

Back in his cozy den, Chu Hao placed the money on his bed. He counted the more than ten thousand yuan with a gleeful heart, carefully stashing it away. This money is all for marrying a wife in the future.

Just then, his phone rang. It was a familiar number.

”Hello! Old Mo.”

Speaking of Old Mo, he specialized in arranging funerals, running a comprehensive funeral service business. It was Old Mo who had arranged the job for Chu Hao when he went to Mu Yuxun’s hometown the day before yesterday.

Old Mo said sourly, ”You rascal, where were you yesterday? A woman answered your phone!”
