Ghost Catching System

The Heavenly Bone Woman’s eyes grew cold as she said, ”Don’t ask about things you shouldn’t.”

Chu Hao stiffened his neck and retorted, ”Why can’t I ask? If he’s an enemy, I’ll help you find him. If he’s a rival in love, I want to compete. I won’t accept defeat.”

I won’t accept defeat!

Honestly, when Chu Hao uttered the phrase ”I won’t accept defeat,” he brought human emotions to a climax, as if he were a stubborn teenager in pursuit of love and its mysteries.

Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei exchanged glances and couldn’t help but admire Chu Hao. When it comes to acting, we have to hand it to Brother Hao, they thought.

The Heavenly Bone Woman looked at Chu Hao with amusement and said, ”My ill-fated connection with him can only end with one of us dead. There’s no other way.”

Like hell I believe that, Chu Hao thought.

He then said, ”Oh.”

The Heavenly Bone Woman turned to leave, her ethereal presence as otherworldly as ever, like a fairy. ”Follow me,” she commanded.

Like hell I’ll follow you, Chu Hao thought, already choosing another path. If I don’t run now, when will I?

But just as he was about to retreat, the Heavenly Bone Woman said coldly, ”If you run, I won’t just kill you. I’ll kill your entire family, your friends, and loved ones, ensuring you’ll never find peace, even in the afterlife.”

So ruthless, Chu Hao thought.

Originally about to step back, Chu Hao awkwardly stepped forward and asked, ”Where are we going?”

”White Bone Cave.”

With that, the Heavenly Bone Woman led the way out of the school.

Knowing she wouldn’t kill—at least for now—Chu Hao felt a wave of relief.

Outside, everyone looked astonished. ”What... what on earth is going on?”

”Could it be that Chu Hao has also become a servant of the living dead?”

In despair, the person in charge called Chu Hao’s phone, only to be hung up on. Instead, they received a text message: ”Have everyone withdraw. Don’t provoke her. She won’t kill for now.”

The person in charge didn’t know what to do. Ouyang Lan pondered for a moment then said, ”Let’s withdraw. It’s useless to block her here; it will only lead to more deaths.”

With the S-Level Demon Exorcist having spoken, everyone had no choice but to retreat.

Exiting the school, they found the surrounding roads and shops deserted. The entire area had been sealed off, nearly devoid of human presence.

Chu Hao followed behind the Heavenly Bone Woman, noticing she walked barefoot on the ground. Despite having no shoes, her jade-like feet remained immaculately clean.

She was like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting: porcelain-white, tender skin; soft, rosy lips; and long, straight legs as white as ivory. Draped in a snow-white gauze robe, her long, grayish hair billowed gently in the wind, creating an image of ethereal sanctity mixed with an eerie, ghostly charm.

Such peerless beauty could only be rivaled by Diao Chan and Yi Qinglian.

Chu Hao shook his head. It’s an illusion, he thought. She’s the Big Devil. I can’t let myself be tempted.

Chu Hao couldn’t help but ask, ”Do you know where White Bone Cave is?”

The Heavenly Bone Woman replied, ”It’s several thousand miles from here.”

Several thousand miles! Chu Hao exclaimed inwardly.

The Heavenly Bone Woman pointed south. ”In that direction.”

Chu Hao quickly said, ”You have to promise me: if I take you to White Bone Cave, you won’t kill anyone else.”

The Heavenly Bone Woman turned her head, her icy gaze chilling him to the bone. ”Whether I kill or not is my decision. You are merely a little servant.”

Ha! Chu Hao scoffed internally. Since when did Brother Hao become your little servant? You better make that clear!

Chu Hao put on a grief-stricken expression, his sorrow laced with bitterness. ”Heh heh… So, in your eyes, I’m just a little servant.”

The Heavenly Bone Woman, her face devoid of expression, stated, ”If you’re not satisfied, you can also be a slave.”

Feeling a sharp pain in his chest as if he’d been stabbed, Chu Hao quickly said, ”Servant is fine. Just a little attendant, right?”

”Prepare a horse. We’re going to White Bone Cave.”

Look at you, so out of touch, Chu Hao thought. Who even prepares horses in this day and age?

Chu Hao said, ”You’ve been sealed for thousands of years. The times have changed drastically.”

The Heavenly Bone Woman pondered for a moment. ”Just now, someone shot a slingshot at me. Its power was indeed great.”

Great Immortal Bai Gu, that was clearly a sniper rifle, okay? Chu Hao mentally retorted. And you’re unbelievably tough; even a sniper rifle couldn’t kill you. Just how hard are your bones?

Chu Hao said, ”I’ll drive you to White Bone Cave.”

”A horse carriage? Very well. I need to rest.”

Chu Hao took out his phone and called Old Yuan from the Seventh District. ”Help me prepare a vehicle.”

Old Yuan was stunned when he answered. ”Master Chu, you… what’s going on?”

Chu Hao said smugly, ”Here’s the situation: I, the Taoist Master, have now subdued her. But I can’t kill her for the time being, so just hurry up and get the car ready.”

Old Yuan was too stunned to react immediately. Didn’t I clearly see the Heavenly Bone Woman pointing a sword at you, looking like your heart was broken? How did you subdue her in the blink of an eye?

”That’s not right!” Old Yuan muttered. ”I clearly saw her pointing a sword at Master Chu.”

Chu Hao snorted coldly. ”What the hell do you know? The profoundness of this Taoist Master is beyond the understanding of mere mortals like you.”

Old Yuan chuckled nervously. ”Yes, yes, I’ll prepare the vehicle right away.”

After hanging up, the more Old Yuan thought about it, the more confused he became. Something is definitely off. Who exactly subdued whom?

Soon, a BMW X6 appeared and stopped in front of them.

”The car is here.”

The Heavenly Bone Woman looked at the car curiously. ”This is not a horse carriage.”

Chu Hao explained, ”Both names include ’horse.’ This is a BMW.”

After they got in, the driver, a middle-aged man, said nervously, ”Master Chu… Master Chu, where are we going?”

”South.”

Chu Hao didn’t know the exact location, so that was all he could say. Thousands of years have passed; heaven knows where White Bone Cave is now, he mused.

The driver was also bewildered but reacted quickly and started the car.

Let’s just get out of the city first, the driver thought. With this Female Devil around, there won’t be a moment of peace.

After driving for a while, the Heavenly Bone Woman commented, ”This ’horse’ is not bad. Even a Ferghana steed wouldn’t be much better.”

Look at you, so unworldly, Chu Hao thought with disdain, though he dared not say it aloud. ”If we head straight south, we’ll reach South Capital. Let’s go there first.”

The driver nodded.

The car drove out of the city. Unbeknownst to them, a convoy of vehicles followed: military trucks, police cars, and many business cars. Everyone was extremely tense; their only option now was to trust Chu Hao.

Seeing the skyscrapers, the Heavenly Bone Woman was slightly surprised. ”After thousands of years, the buildings have changed so much, and people’s clothing is different too.”

Chu Hao looked at the Heavenly Bone Woman, his gaze drifting down to her long, snow-white legs, smooth as jade. Definitely a ’product’ one could enjoy looking at for a decade, he thought, swallowing hard. ”Maybe you should change your clothes first. You’re too conspicuous like this.”

The Heavenly Bone Woman nodded. ”When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”

Chu Hao quickly said, ”Driver, stop at the mall up ahead.”

Listening to their conversation, the driver grew puzzled. Is this still the same Female Devil who killed without batting an eye?

The convoy following them saw the car stop at a shopping mall. The person in charge quickly ordered, ”Evacuate the crowd! Heighten the alert!”

”Yes, sir!” came the replies.

The person in charge looked perplexed. ”What on earth is Chu Hao trying to do?”

Ouyang Lan said, ”I don’t know. Let’s wait and see.”

Inside the mall, the Heavenly Bone Woman chose an outfit and changed. When she reappeared, she stunned everyone present.

”So… so beautiful.”

”With that long gray hair, if she became an actress, she’d definitely be a huge star.”
