Ghost Catching System

Chapter 48: Chapter 48: The Overwhelming Annihilation of the Wangui Demon Fetus_1

The Wangui Demon Fetus was blasted away. Its body was wrapped in black lightning, but it suffered no serious harm—its movements were just impeded.

It didn’t surprise Chu Hao at all that he hadn’t killed it; the Red-clothed Female Ghost had also taken a hit and survived regardless.

Chu Hao said to the System, ”I want to finish it off in one move.”

The System replied, ”Recommendation for the Host: purchase the Nine Mysterious Thunder Slayer Talisman for 50 Pretentiousness Points.”

”Give me one.”

”Ding! Host has purchased the Nine Mysterious Thunder Slayer Talisman, consuming 50 Pretentiousness Points. Remaining balance: 210 Pretentiousness Points.”

A purple talisman appeared, and Chu Hao recited the incantation, ”Nine Mysterious Thunder Slayer, Majestic Heavenly Might, with talisman as the guide... Go!”

The Nine Mysterious Thunder Slayer Talisman transformed into a golden light and vanished into the void.

Immediately after, within a ten-yard radius, the void flashed with lightning and rumbled with thunder. A thunder dragon appeared, letting out a powerful roar.

Everyone heard it clearly and looked up at the sky, at the seemingly miraculous scene.

”ROAR!” The thunder dragon’s spirit transformed into a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket, viciously striking the Wangui Demon Fetus.

”BOOM!”

The ground exploded, leaving a three-meter-deep pit. When they looked for the Wangui Demon Fetus, it was nowhere to be found—completely incinerated to ash.

”Ding! Slain Wangui Demon Fetus. Obtained 500,000 Experience Points.”

”Ding! Wangui Demon Fetus dropped Wangui Demon Bones. Stored in inventory.”

”Ding! Wangui Demon Fetus dropped Wangui Demon Heart. Stored in inventory.”

”Ding! Congratulations to the Host on leveling up! Current Level: Apprentice Ghost Hunter Level 2.”

”Ding! Fusion System unlocked.”

”Ding! Host has performed a shocking display of pretentiousness! Awarded 50 Pretentiousness Points.”

Host: Chu Hao

Experience Points: 500,000 / 600,000

A series of system notifications appeared, but Chu Hao wasn’t pleased, for his Baby Diao Chan was missing.

The Red-clothed Female Ghost screamed, her scalp tingling, and she turned to flee.

”Sadako, go teach her a good lesson,” Chu Hao commanded.

The three Ghost Servants harbored a deep hatred for the Red-clothed Female Ghost. They had been injured by her in the cave before, and now they wanted revenge.

The Red-clothed Female Ghost might have resisted if she were uninjured, but now she was no match for them. Sadako tore off one of her arms. Jiayeci’s sharp claws ripped open a gash on her chest, revealing a patch of milky-white skin.

Then Chu Beauty bit off one of her legs—a cruel and bloody scene.

The Red-clothed Female Ghost lay motionless on the ground, like a dead dog.

Chu Hao rushed over and kicked her in the face. She let out a scream of pure terror.

Chu Hao hauled her up and slapped her hard across the face several times.

He taunted, ”So, why aren’t you killing anyone now? You were going to exterminate all of humanity, weren’t you? Why don’t you just ascend to heaven then?”

”SLAP! SLAP! SLAP!” Several more slaps to the face followed.

Chu Hao sneered, ”I’ve killed countless scum like you. You think you’re so tough? Come at me then!”

”I’ve never seen such a green tea bitch like you in my life!”

”...”

From a distance, Feng Ju, Old Yuan, Song Lou, Little Ying, and the two surviving members of the Five Tiger Generals all watched, their faces beaded with sweat.

”Ding! Host has successfully acted pretentious. Awarded 20 Pretentiousness Points.”

Even after beating the Red-clothed Female Ghost half to death, Chu Hao still wasn’t appeased; his Baby Diao Chan was missing.

Just then, a graceful figure flew toward him. ”Master.”

Chu Hao was stunned, then exclaimed joyfully, ”Baby Diao Chan, where have you been? Master was worried sick about you!”

Diao Chan looked pitiful, her eyes welling with tears. ”Master, I... I got lost.”

Chu Hao was speechless. Alright, Diao Chan actually has no sense of direction. That completely caught me off guard.

After dragging the Red-clothed Female Ghost into the car, Chu Hao said to the middle-aged man, ”Uncle, let’s get out of here. Start the car.”

The middle-aged man was already dumbfounded. After Chu Hao had gotten out of the car, he had eliminated the Wangui Demon Fetus in an unbelievably awesome way, using methods worthy of an immortal.

”Is... is it over?” the middle-aged man asked blankly.

Chu Hao nodded. ”It’s over. That kind of minor ghost is no match for me.”

The Red-clothed Female Ghost was furious. *Me, a minor ghost?* I’m a seven-hundred-year-old Fierce Ghost, damn it!

”Ding! Host has successfully acted pretentious. Awarded 20 Pretentiousness Points.”

The middle-aged man gave a thumbs-up. ”Impressive! You must be the reincarnation of an immortal, right?”

Chu Hao chuckled. ”You flatter me. It was just a minor skirmish.”

”Awesome.”

The uncle stepped on the gas, and the car sped away.

Feng Ju and the others appeared. They hadn’t dared to approach and could only watch through binoculars. They had planned to get closer to the young Taoist Master but found he had already driven away, leaving them momentarily stunned.

Old Yuan asked, ”Why did the Taoist Master leave just like that?”

Feng Ju sighed. ”Perhaps this Taoist Master prefers to keep a low profile. Let’s not disturb him.”

Thinking about it, it made sense. The man hadn’t answered Old Yuan’s calls, clearly showing he didn’t wish to have contact with the Seventh District. Some Exorcists in Huaxia Country were like that—loners with peculiar temperaments.

Little Ying said excitedly, ”Feng Ju, I recorded the whole thing!”

Feng Ju nodded, but his expression quickly turned somber. The Seventh District had suffered heavy losses; three of the Five Tiger Generals were dead.

Feng Ju looked at the destroyed, blood-soaked nightclub and said, ”Call the police to handle this.”

”Yes.”

Since it was late, the middle-aged man offered to let Chu Hao stay at his home to rest.

Of course, I have to refuse decisively. If this middle-aged uncle found out what happened between me and his daughter... he’d definitely come after me with a knife.

Taking the Stone Dagger, Chu Hao headed back to his own small apartment.

He casually tossed the Stone Dagger aside. ”There, you can stay here from now on.”

Ren Hanxue almost coughed up blood. *What kind of treatment is this, just tossing me to the foot of the bed?* She cursed Chu Hao in her heart but didn’t dare say it aloud. After seeing his heroic battle against the Wangui Demon Fetus and his godlike abilities, she knew killing her would be as easy for him as squashing an ant.

Chu Hao lay down on his bed and fell into a deep sleep. He was quite exhausted after such a busy day.

The next day, he didn’t wake up until noon.

When he opened his eyes, an extraordinary beauty met his gaze. She had clear and bright pupils, curved willow-leaf eyebrows, long eyelashes, fair and unblemished skin with a faint rosy blush, and thin lips like tender, dewy rose petals.

Chu Hao pounced and kissed Baby Diao Chan on her small mouth. Though her lips were cold, it felt pretty good.

TSK TSK... How wonderful it would be if she became a real person.

Diao Chan shrieked in fright, her jade-smooth skin blushing crimson all the way to the tips of her ears.

Chu Hao smirked. ”What were you doing, Baby Diao Chan?”

Diao Chan’s large eyes filled with indignation. ”Master, you... you’re so naughty!”

Chu Hao chuckled. ”Not at all! You wanted to kiss Master, so Master just helped you out. TSK TSK... My Baby Diao Chan’s lips are so soft.”

Diao Chan, blushing furiously, covered her face with her hands. After all, she was from ancient times, her age frozen at eighteen; she had never experienced anything like this.

Diao Chan stomped her foot, saying shyly, ”Master, your phone has been ringing many times.”

With that, she fled in embarrassment.

Chu Hao savored the lingering sensation, his heart racing. I need to accumulate Pretentiousness Points quickly and buy a physical body for Diao Chan!

Picking up his phone, he saw countless missed calls. Most of them were from Old Yuan.

He ignored them outright.

Mu Yuxun had also called many times, as had Old Mo. There was even one from Yue Shanshan, Manager Yue.
