Ghost Catching System

Pang Zhengguang was bewildered. He thought he understood Chu Hao well, but he discovered that the other man’s mystery and strength far surpassed his own.

It was as if Chu Hao were a deity, distant and unapproachable.

Pang Dalong said in confusion, ”You just saw it. Xu Sheng wanted to make a bet with him and even called him Master. His background can’t be simple.”

Pang Zhengguang asked, ”Is that Xu Sheng really so impressive?”

”Extremely impressive. You think Master Chen is formidable? Yet, he lost to Xu Sheng,” replied Pang Dalong.

Pang Zhengguang’s eyes widened as he said jealously, ”When did he become so formidable? I almost got scammed by him.”

「...」

After the meal, Mu Yuxun suggested going to the hot springs.

Mu Yufei also wanted to experience the hot spring bath. It was said the facilities at Longhua Pavilion were excellent, and the service was top-notch.

In such a place, where casually carving stones could cost hundreds of thousands or even millions, the service naturally had to be exceptional.

The moment he heard they were going to the hot springs, the image of Mu Yufei in a bathing suit popped into his head—her graceful figure, slender curves, and breathtaking bosom—making Chu Hao’s heart race.

Seeing the slight smile on Chu Hao’s lips, Mu Yuxun knew exactly what he was thinking and said with a dissatisfied pout, ”Don’t even think about it. The hot springs are separated by gender; there’s no way for you to watch my sister in the hot springs.”

Chu Hao’s face flushed as he said, ”Do I look like that kind of person to you?”

Mu Yuxun replied sulkily, ”You already have a girlfriend.”

Right! He’d almost forgotten Tina was around. This girl was a really good actress, always following him and behaving so docilely.

But then again, it wasn’t just Tina who wanted to see the Emperor’s Love; people from the Yin and Yang Realm were after it too. Was that item really so special?

Since the hot springs were gender-separated, Chu Hao lost interest and asked, ”Where’s the Emperor’s Love?”

”Over there in the exhibition hall.”

Chu Hao nodded. Tina also wanted to join them in the hot springs, but he said directly, ”Don’t bother soaking. Don’t you want to see the Emperor’s Love?”

Tina felt frustrated. She had wanted to go to the hot springs to get closer to the two sisters. She could tell Chu Hao cared a lot about Mu Yufei, and her ability to obtain the Emperor’s Yellow Seal might become another bargaining chip.

However, since Chu Hao had spoken, she simply nodded in agreement.

The two took the elevator to the exhibition hall on the thirty-seventh floor of the building. It was crowded with people, all there to see the Emperor’s Love.

Besides the Emperor’s Love, other jewels up for auction also caught people’s attention.

The Emperor’s Love was displayed inside a large glass cabinet, isolating it from the onlookers, with numerous bodyguards standing guard.

Chu Hao immediately caught sight of the so-called Emperor’s Love.

It was a necklace, inlaid with various gems and jade pieces. The largest piece of jade was a vibrant emerald green with exceptional translucency. The other jewels merely served to accentuate its brilliance.

”Emperor’s Emerald.”

Is this the Emperor’s Love? A necklace with Imperial Green as its central theme. But, could it really be that simple?

Chu Hao observed something unusual about the jade. Although unnoticed by others, he could see an energy emanating from the Imperial Green jade stone.

Indeed, the Taoist priests and Su Huansheng didn’t come for the Emperor’s Love; they were attracted to this piece of jade radiating strange energy.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t pick it up for a closer look; otherwise, he would know what it was.

However, Chu Hao suddenly felt a chill pass by him. As he turned to look, he saw a cameraman with a wooden expression staring at the Emperor’s Love.

Upon a closer look, Chu Hao immediately realized that this was not the cameraman himself; he had another face.

A ghost!

In such a crowded place with impeccable feng shui, a ghost had actually appeared.

Was the ghost interested in the Emperor’s Love as well?

Chu Hao was puzzled. Taoist priests, ghosts... could it be that demons have also arrived? Where could they be hiding?

Chu Hao asked, ”Tina, why did you want to see the Emperor’s Love?”

Tina, entranced, said dreamily, ”Don’t you think it’s beautiful?”

Realizing she had lost her composure, Tina laughed and said, ”I saw it online, and it’s just so beautiful. Since I was coming to Huaxia Country, I also wanted to see the Emperor’s Love for myself.”

Only a ghost would believe that tale.

Chu Hao felt it was necessary to find someone to ask.

At that moment, a voice beside Chu Hao said, ”Young friend, the Emperor’s Love is in high demand. How about we cooperate?”

It was Su Huansheng. He had also arrived at the exhibition hall and was currently eyeing the Emperor’s Love.

So, you all know what this is, and I’m the only one in the dark?

Chu Hao put on a very natural expression and said, ”If we manage to get it, how would we split it then?”

Su Huansheng said, ”Young friend, you have offended the Three Great Ghost Monster Kings. From what I know, the Ghost Monster Kings have been investigating you. How about you help me get it, and if the Ghost Monster Kings cause you trouble, I can stand by your side. How does this deal sound?”

Su Huansheng really dared to say that! The Three Great Ghost Monster Kings... what kind of beings are they?! Could it be that Su Huansheng is also a figure on par with a Ghost King or Demon King?

Yes, Su Huansheng was precisely that level of character.

Chu Hao said, ”Those three? I don’t even take them seriously.”

Surprised, Su Huansheng looked at Chu Hao and said, ”Young friend is quite confident. However, these Three Great Ghost Monster Kings have quite the reputation, especially the Fox Demon King. She’s a descendant of the Fox Demon Daji, with unfathomable strength.”

The Six-tailed Fox Demon is a descendant of Daji? Daji, a mythical being... so she really existed.

Chu Hao, feeling awkward, asked, ”What do you want it for?”

Su Huansheng looked at Chu Hao and said, ”The jade in question comes from the body of a Jade Dragon. It’s said that a trace of the Jade Dragon’s power might be hidden within it. Isn’t that why you’re here?”

Jade from a Jade Dragon’s body? Holy moly!

The Jade Dragon that Su Huansheng mentioned had many records in the Ancient Desolate Scripture; the Jade Dragon was a type of Stone Spirit.

Legend had it that it transformed from minerals beneath mountain ranges over countless long years, eventually becoming a petrified, intelligent being.

It belonged to the demon category, similar to Shi Tao. Both were regarded as demonic among stone spirits: neither of heaven nor earth, neither divine nor human nor ghost, neither mollusk nor scaled creature, nor furry beast, nor feathered bird, nor insect.

Because of its uniqueness, it was ultimately classified as one of the Ten Ancient Evils.

The Ancient Desolate Scripture recorded it as such.

No wonder so many people from the Yin and Yang Realm showed up. That piece of jade was actually a fragment that had fallen from a Jade Dragon’s body! How many Pretentiousness Points is this thing worth?

Chu Hao was incredibly interested.

After leaving the exhibition hall and stepping into the elevator, Tina said, ”Chu, I have a question I want to ask you.”

Chu Hao replied, ”Go ahead.”

Curious, Tina inquired, ”You took out a pen and a jade seal. I never saw you carry them with you. Where did they go?”

This woman, she finally couldn’t help but ask?

Chu Hao grinned and said, ”How about I tell you tonight?”

Tina blushed, inwardly cursing him as a lecher, but she shyly nodded her head.

Chu Hao sneered inwardly. Let’s see how long you can restrain yourself. To get the Emperor’s Yellow Seal, you’re really putting yourself on the line, even pulling the ’love at first sight’ act.
