Ghost Catching System

Everyone looked at him with astonishment. ”You’ve actually got power on your phone but no money to pay the phone bill? What kind of oddity are you?”

Huang Mao scoffed, ”If the phone is out of battery or not with me, how can I pay it?”

Qiu Qianxue said, ”There isn’t a shortage of cars on this road. Let’s wait for a ride; I’ll flag one down.”

Indeed, with Qiu Qianxue’s beauty, wasn’t it simple to get a car to stop?

However, after waiting for half an hour, not a single car had passed by, which was exceedingly bizarre.

Under the sun, Qiu Qianxue was unbearably hot and beginning to sweat. The sweat glistening on her skin was a sight to behold. Confused, she said, ”Why are there no cars passing by?”

This was a major road, which normally saw a heavy flow of traffic every day.

Everyone was speechless and couldn’t help but look toward Chu Hao.

Chu Hao, cradling the back of his head, said, ”Why are you looking at me?”

”Plague god,” Huang Mao scoffed.

Chu Hao said fiercely, ”Huang Mao, are you asking for a beating?”

The other side had two men, while Huang Mao was alone; he couldn’t act all high and mighty here lest he get beaten up.

Chu Hao thought for a moment and said, ”System, is there anything that can instantly contact other people?”

The System’s sweet voice, always a pleasure to listen to, spoke again. ”It is recommended that the Host purchase the Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Talisman, which requires 1,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

”Purchase.”

”DING! The Host has purchased the Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Talisman, consuming 1,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

Item: Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Talisman

Rarity: ★

Ability: Sound transmission over a thousand miles, a one-time consumable item

Chu Hao took out the Talisman, and everyone looked at him with surprise. What is he up to?

Chu Hao recited the spell: ”Search hither and yon, transmit sound across miles, swiftly follow my command!”

With a POOF, the Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Talisman ignited, and the ethereal figure of Zhang Qin’ai suddenly appeared before them. Who else could it be?

Chu Hao said, ”Emergency! I’m stranded on the highway, at the bridge. Hurry over.”

Zhang Qin’ai was startled and said, ”Little Maozi!”

”It’s me. Think of something quickly.”

Zhang Qin’ai nodded and said, ”Okay, I’ll think of something.”

The figure vanished.

”DING! The Host has successfully shown off, gaining 900 Pretentiousness Points.”

”DING! The Host has successfully shown off, gaining 900 Pretentiousness Points.”

Impressive—Pretentiousness Points twice!

Looking at the others, they were completely shocked, barely able to believe their eyes.

Huang Mao exclaimed, ”What... what was that?”

Chu Hao said calmly, ”Mortals. You wouldn’t understand even if I told you.”

Huang Mao was incredibly excited. He never imagined he’d encounter such a peculiar great one.

Qiu Qianxue was also astonished. Yin Yang Masters can actually do that? It’s simply magical!

After a while, Chu Hao’s phone rang; Zhang Qin’ai had topped up his phone credit. Zhang Qin’ai, on the other end, burst into laughter. ”Little Maozi, you’re hilarious! I was wondering why you didn’t call me; your phone was actually disconnected.”

So she figured that out too, Chu Hao thought, speechless.

”Hurry up and come over.”

”Well, you’ll have to wait a bit. There’s a major accident here, a seven or eight-car pile-up, and even a tanker truck exploded. The traffic police are dealing with it; it’s going to take some time.”

What the heck!

No wonder not a single car was passing by; it turned out a major car accident had occurred further back on the road.

Chu Hao suddenly felt this streak of bad luck was astonishingly potent. It seemed like anyone who stood on this highway with him would end up unlucky!

Their current location was extremely awkward: on an elevated section of the highway, with no village ahead and no rest stop behind.

Chu Hao hung up the phone and told everyone about the accident. They all looked dumbfounded, their mouths gaping wide enough to fit a fist. Could today get any more unlucky?

Chu Hao said, ”Well then, who’s coming with me?”

Qiu Qianxue said helplessly, ”It’s still twelve kilometers to the exit.”

Chu Hao said indifferently, ”That’s not going to stump this great one.”

Chu Hao summoned Zhao Yun’s white horse, the Night-illuminating Jade Lion Horse, an outstanding BMW that was half-demon. The sudden appearance of the white horse stunned everyone.

The white horse was strikingly handsome. It was a warhorse that had experienced countless battles—majestic, powerful, and visually stunning.

Two streams of white mist snorted from the nostrils of the Night-illuminating Jade Lion Horse, making it appear even more majestic and formidable.

”DING! The Host successfully showed off, gaining 900 Pretentiousness Points.”

Who exactly *is* this guy? How did this white horse just appear out of thin air?

Listening to the System notification, Chu Hao gradually understood. Although things were unlucky, this situation was filled with opportunities to show off. As long as he could overcome the difficulties, he could flaunt his abilities.

Huang Mao was nearly ready to kneel, saying worshipfully, ”Great god! I was blind not to recognize Mount Tai! I hope you won’t hold my earlier actions against me.”

”How… how did it appear?”

Chu Hao mounted the Night-illuminating Jade Lion Horse and said, ”Who’s coming with me?”

Qiu Qianxue looked toward Zhang Qi and said, ”I’m in a hurry to get to the office. Maybe I should go first?”

Zhang Qi was reluctant to let his girlfriend go with someone else, leaving him behind. What would that make him?

However, he had been pursuing Qiu Qianxue for a long time and had only just gotten together with her a week ago. He didn’t want to upset her, so he said, ”Then you go ahead. I’ll wait here.”

Qiu Qianxue didn’t think too much about it at the time. She got on the white horse and held onto Chu Hao’s waist.

The gesture was ambiguous. With her body pressed against Chu Hao’s back, the warmth and softness would likely make any man envious, wouldn’t it?

This scene was almost like a prince on a white horse and his Princess.

Zhang Qi immediately felt as if he had been cuckolded.

He felt incredibly uncomfortable inside, but he pretended not to care, even reminding them, ”Be careful on the road.”

”Hold tight! Giddy up!”

The Night-illuminating Jade Lion Horse dashed away like a bolt of lightning. Huang Mao’s girlfriend, green with envy, said, ”I’m so jealous! Oh, if only that were me!”

Instead of getting angry at his girlfriend’s words, Huang Mao said admiringly, ”The great god might not fancy you, though. TSK TSK... Those two are a perfect match! Uh, dude, why is your face so green?”

Zhang Qi roared, ”None of your damn business!”

He miserably went back to fixing the car. His heart was filled with a mixture of jealousy and awe at the realization that extraordinary people like Chu Hao actually existed in this world.

Previously indifferent, Zhang Qi now sensed danger. Would Qiu Qianxue develop a liking for the incredible and outstanding Chu Hao?

”Damn it!” Zhang Qi muttered, thoroughly annoyed.

The two of them riding the white horse on the highway was truly a peculiar sight.

The Night-illuminating Jade Lion Horse’s speed increased steadily. Qiu Qianxue’s long hair fluttered in the wind, her hold around Chu Hao’s waist getting tighter. She wondered about this enigmatic man. Who exactly was he? She felt so secure pressed against his back. Qiu Qianxue, what are you thinking? You have a boyfriend! Stop these messy thoughts! But the more she tried not to think about it, the more curious she became about who Chu Hao really was.

Chu Hao, with the beautiful flight attendant clinging tightly to him, her chest pressed to his back, couldn’t help but feel exhilarated.

He wished he could find a place right now to... *deal* with her. Cough, cough... Such evil thoughts!
