Ghost Catching System

Chapter 96: Chapter 96 Opportunity! (First Update)_1

Yu Sicheng acted swiftly, rushing forward to slap a talisman onto the entity. The filthy thing inside was shaken out and ran towards the forest. Yu Sicheng chased after it in a leap and disappeared from view.

Chu Hao also saw what it was: a pitch-black little child.

”Who’s playing Ghost tricks?”

Chu Hao bellowed, certain that someone was nearby. The Xiao Gui was obviously being controlled; otherwise, how could it have evaded the two of them?

Liu Qingyan approached, her heart pounding, chest heaving, and her voice trembling as she asked, ”Master Chu, what’s happening?”

Chu Hao stared at Cao Shanhe and said, ”Did you offend someone? They’ve come for you.”

Cao Shanhe hesitated. He had crossed many people, and even more wished for his death, but he had never encountered a supernatural event like this before.

Soon, Yu Sicheng returned, holding a blackened Xiao Gui that resembled a monkey.

Apart from him and Yu Sicheng, no one else could see it.

Cao Yunxue, Cao Shanhe’s daughter, a woman in her late twenties, asked, ”Where did you go?”

”Catching a Ghost,” Yu Sicheng responded indifferently.

Cao Yunxue pursed her lips and said, ”Are there even Ghosts in this world?”

Yu Sicheng ignored her, prompting her to stomp her foot in annoyance.

But Chu Hao chuckled and said, ”Beauty, do you really want to see?”

”If you can show me a Ghost, I’ll pay you,” declared Cao Yunxue arrogantly.

This family all had the same trait: pure arrogance.

”Alright.”

Chu Hao, unabashed, reached out for the money.

Cao Yunxue took out a card and snorted, ”Let’s get one thing straight: if I don’t see a Ghost, you’ll regret it.”

Chu Hao took the card. To think there are still people who would pay just to see Ghosts.

He suddenly saw a business opportunity, saying, ”Who else wants to see a Ghost?”

”Me.”

A man from the Cao Family stepped forward, skeptical about Ghosts but intrigued by Chu Hao’s mystique.

Many started to fork out money; they were indeed curious to have a look.

Before long, Chu Hao had a good sum of money, certainly around 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.

This business idea has potential! I could trap a Ghost in a cage for people to view, charging 100 yuan for admission. TSK TSK... How can Brother Hao be such a genius?

Liu Qingyan asked, puzzled, ”Can we really see Ghosts?”

Chu Hao patted his chest and boasted, ”My powers as a Taoist Master are boundless. A trivial matter like this is nothing; with money, anything is possible.”

Liu Qingyan also took out some money, driven by intense curiosity.

Chu Hao collected the wad of bills with satisfaction. With a wave of his hand, he activated the power of the Yin Yang Ring, opening the Yin Yang Eye for those people.

AHHH!!

Cao Yunxue was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground. She saw, upon the graves, the horrifying Ghosts of the Cao Family ancestors staring directly at her.

The others nearly had heart attacks from fear, and some even wet themselves.

HMPH... Have they finally witnessed the power of this Taoist Master?

After this episode, the members of the Cao Family regarded Chu Hao with fear.

DING... Host has succeeded in showing off, earning 50 Pretentiousness Points.

Those who didn’t see the Ghosts were left both curious and afraid.

Chu Hao smiled and said, ”Ladies and gentlemen, if anyone wishes to see a Ghost, just let me know.”

Cao Shanhe was also given the Yin Yang Eye, his face deathly pale as he saw the state his Cao Family Ancestral Grave had fallen into.

Chu Hao walked over and asked the Xiao Gui in Yu Sicheng’s hands, ”Why are you harming people?”

The Xiao Gui, dressed in ancient clothing, was as strong as an Evil Ghost. It gave a sinister smile and said, ”All of you are going to die!! Especially you, HAHA...”

Another arrogant Xiao Gui. Cao Zhiming was just as arrogant before. It’s baffling. He’s already in our hands, yet he can still be so cocky. Is he a brain-dead Ghost or what?

Chu Hao looked at him sideways and said, ”Xiao Gui, you’re quite arrogant, aren’t you?”

He grabbed the Xiao Gui and gave it a few hard slaps. SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! The Xiao Gui was thoroughly stunned.

The Xiao Gui frantically howled at Chu Hao, its expression twisted with terror; the surrounding people backed away, shivering involuntarily.

”Who the hell are you howling at?”

Chu Hao grabbed the Xiao Gui and, as if kicking a ball, booted it high into the sky.

As for the members of the Cao Family, they were all dumbfounded.

The legendary Ghost was actually getting thrashed by Chu Hao!

DING... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 50 Pretentiousness Points.

The Xiao Gui, beaten half to death by Chu Hao, was thrown to the ground where Chu Hao fiercely stomped on it.

This scene, witnessed by the little boy Cao Zhiming, made his body tremble uncontrollably, as if he had become the Xiao Gui. He looked at Chu Hao, filled with fear.

This man must never be provoked again! He’s so brutal, even to something that looks like a child; it’s terrifying! I want my mom!

Chu Hao was incredibly ruthless, and the Xiao Gui’s pitiful screams nearly shattered its soul.

”Stop... stop hitting me! I’ll talk, I’ll talk!”

Chu Hao slapped the Xiao Gui on the head, saying, ”I thought you were more resilient. Can’t take it already? This Taoist Master isn’t even done yet.”

The Xiao Gui felt incredibly wronged. How can you hit me like that? Even a Ghost can’t endure this!

WAAAH! The Xiao Gui started crying, saying, ”You’re bullying a Ghost!”

”Oh really? You were threatening me just a moment ago. Don’t try to get sympathy. Who sent you here?”

”Granny Long sent me,” said the Xiao Gui, looking pitiful.

Cao Shanhe exclaimed, ”Granny Long!”

”You know her?” Chu Hao asked.

Cao Shanhe, in disbelief, said, ”Granny Long... she’s the one who chose our Cao Family Ancestral Grave. How... how could she possibly still be alive?”

Indeed, if Granny Long were still alive, she’d be as old as the Cao family’s founding ancestor. How could a person live that long?

Chu Hao waved his hand, saying, ”What’s so impossible? If this person knows some Evil Technique, she could definitely turn into a Fierce Ghost after death.”

Becoming a Fierce Ghost requires certain conditions. However, if someone knows evil arts, transforming into a long-lasting Fierce Ghost shouldn’t be an issue.

Chu Hao, holding the Xiao Gui, asked, ”Where is Granny Long?”

The Xiao Gui, bruised and swollen, truly feared Chu Hao and said, ”She’s... she’s right here.”

Chu Hao and Yu Sicheng were startled. Could Granny Long be among these people? They hadn’t realized it all this time!

Cao Shanhe was also shocked, looking at all the members of the Cao Family.

The members of the Cao Family were terrified. Could Granny Long really be among them?

Chu Hao pulled out the Hundred Percent Ghost-seeing Talisman and shouted, ”Granny Long, aren’t you going to reveal yourself?”

”Three Pure Ones, reveal your spirit! All Evil Demons beware! The Taoist Master commands: reveal your true form promptly!”

This time, the talisman paper didn’t burn but flew towards the members of the Cao Family; with a POP! it adhered to a woman’s body.

”Third Aunt?”

Everyone was stunned to see the woman, who appeared to be in her thirties, and could hardly believe their eyes.

System notification: A hidden A-level mission has been triggered.

Chu Hao was taken aback but quickly understood.

Third Aunt, this woman in her thirties with an exceptional figure, said indifferently, ”I truly didn’t expect you to be so formidable.”

Cao Shanhe exclaimed, ”Min’er? You... you!”

Third Aunt wasn’t flustered at all. Looking at Cao Shanhe, she said, ”Your Min’er has been dead for a long time.”

Cao Shanhe angrily said, ”Who the hell are you?”

Third Aunt laughed eerily, ”I have many identities: World War II, World War I, the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty... If you really want to know my current identity, I am Du Min’er.”

Du Min’er. That was Third Aunt’s name.

Everyone was horrified, their hair standing on end. Had they not known about the existence of Ghosts, they would have thought Third Aunt was spouting nonsense.

Chu Hao was surprised. He couldn’t see any Ghost on Du Min’er’s body and asked curiously, ”Are you human or a Ghost?”

Du Min’er smiled and said, ”What do you see me as, human or a Ghost?”

”Stop your charade.”
