Ghost Catching System

However, before Chu Hao could truly appreciate the divinely gifted body, Bai Ling waved her hand, and the bath towel wrapped around her once again.

Chu Hao was immediately disappointed!

Without a shred of embarrassment, Bai Ling calmly said, ”Is that enough of a treat?”

Chu Hao almost died of frustration. That’s the treat you promised? Are you kidding me? I want tangible goods, not this kind of spiritual item where I get a glimpse and then nothing!

Chu Hao’s face turned red, and putting on a brave face, he protested, ”That was just three seconds, nowhere near enough.”

Rolling her eyes, Bai Ling said, ”You’re not satisfied yet?”

Damn right, I’m not satisfied.

Chu Hao pouted and gestured wildly. ”Just three seconds and you expect me to risk my life? Do you have any idea how dangerous it is, how many people will be after me once I get the Ghost Sutras? I’ll be like a little bunny surrounded by a pack of big bad wolves.”

At this point, Chu Hao was nearly in tears and muttered, ”By then, I might not even be able to come back and see you.”

Bai Ling looked at him, speechless but somewhat pitying, and promised, ”You’ll return safely.”

Excitedly, Chu Hao said, ”How can you know I’ll come back safe? If I die in the middle of nowhere, no one will even find my body to bury, and who knows, I might even be whipped postmortem. Wouldn’t that break your heart?”

Bai Ling, feeling helpless, asked, ”So what do you want?”

Chu Hao took out his phone, waved it, and said, ”Let me take a few photos. When I miss you, I can just look at them. No matter how dangerous it is, just thinking of you will motivate me to hurry back.”

Bai Ling pursed her lips and said, ”Fine, take the photos.”

Chu Hao, thrilled, asked, ”Can you take down the bath towel?”

Bai Ling snapped, ”Scram!”

Chu Hao was thrown out of the window, tumbling onto the grass and ending up with a mouthful of mud and grass.

”PTOOEY, PTOOEY.” Chu Hao was livid. I, the great King Chubi, am being bullied by a goblin like this? How am I supposed to establish myself in the Yin and Yang Realm after this?

Furiously, Chu Hao yelled towards the upper floors, ”Bai Ling, I’ll bed you sooner or later!”

Many people outside stared at Chu Hao in astonishment.

A middle-aged man even said, ”This lad has the makings of my younger self.”

Bai Ling was at a loss for words. She was about to scold Chu Hao, but when she poked her head out the window, his figure was nowhere to be seen. The rascal had already run off.

On the streets, holding the bone shard, Chu Hao thought, System, can this be exchanged?

System: ”No.”

Chu Hao, surprised, said, ”Is there something you can’t exchange?”

System replied, ”The System needs an upgrade and is unable to detect the grade of the bone shard.”

Chu Hao was shocked. Just what kind of monster is Bai Ling that the System can’t even determine its grade? And to think, Bai Ling trusts me this much. What if I can’t get the Ghost Sutras back?

It seems like it wouldn’t make any difference to her whether I retrieve them or not. If I exchange the Ghost Sutras later, she won’t know.

Thinking this, Chu Hao felt smug. Actually, even if Bai Ling hadn’t mentioned it, I would have gone on my own. To think I stumbled upon such a great deal just by coming here—Bai Ling’s body is truly beautiful!

Chu Hao muttered, ”It’s a shame she’s the Bai Gu Spirit. How nice if she were human.”

”DING... Host has completed 4% of the Establishing a Superpower task, earning 3 million Experience Points.”

”DING... Host has completed 4% of the Establishing a Superpower task, earning a Diamond Treasure Chest.”

”DING... Host has completed 14% of the Establishing a Superpower task, earning 50,000 Merit Points.”

Chu Hao was stunned, overcome with joy by the sudden System notification. The quest can work like this?

After some thought, it seemed very likely that the completion of this four percent of the quest was due to Chen Lan’s assets all being transferred to the Ritian Group.

That meant, the stronger the Ritian Group grew, the more rewards he would receive. How great would it be if I could receive rewards periodically?

Indeed, Chen Lan called to say that the company transfer was complete, and all he had to do now was wait for Su Huansheng to return to Zhongnan Mountain and then join him there.

Chu Hao was thrilled and called Li Yin, asking the kid to come out and play games.

After making arrangements with Li Yin, they arrived at the internet cafe only to see many people with drooping heads and listless expressions. Chu Hao wondered aloud, ”Why is there no atmosphere in the internet cafe?”

Usually, the internet cafe was bustling with activity, but today the vibe was all wrong.

Li Yin sighed. ”The global finals were lost, and the Bird’s Nest in the Imperial Capital turned into a match between the Koreans. How could anyone be happy? Now, many League of Legends players are uninstalling the game.”

Chu Hao really liked this game, and upon hearing that the Koreans were having an internal clash on their turf, he instantly became furious. ”A Korean internal clash? You’ve got to be kidding.”

Li Yin said, ”You can’t blame RNG and WE. After all, they couldn’t even make it to the finals last year; they’ve already tried very hard.”

Knowing they lost, Chu Hao lost any interest in playing games.

Li Yin said, ”Come on, I’ll take you to eat chicken.”

”Eat what chicken?”

”A game, it’s quite good.”

The two of them played the chicken-eating game, and, sure enough, after playing for a while, they both became completely hooked.

Chu Hao cursed, ”Damn it, do you want to kill me and inherit my 98K?”

Li Yin awkwardly explained, ”I hit the wrong person. It’s your own fault for getting in my way.”

Playing until midnight, the two ultimate Voldemorts finally got their chicken dinner. They both won with zero kills; the last enemy player died outside the shrinking play zone during a gunfight with someone else, which allowed them to clinch the victory.

The two were ecstatic, feeling as if the passion for the game had returned.

One gaming session turned into an all-nighter.

At six in the morning, Li Yin got a phone call. With heavy dark circles under his eyes, he said, ”I almost forgot, I have to go for a screen test today.”

”You go ahead,” Chu Hao waved his hand and continued to play the chicken-eating game alone.

Later, feeling bored playing by himself, Chu Hao called Yi Qinglian and dragged her into playing the chicken-eating game with him.

The big star wasn’t into gaming but still accompanied Chu Hao.

Probably because of the Foundation Building, his mental state was excellent. After playing continuously for twenty hours, Yi Qinglian could no longer keep up and left to study cultivation with her sister.

The cafe manager, a young woman, saw Chu Hao still gaming after a full day and night and couldn’t help but disdainfully mutter, ”Young people these days. They know nothing but playing games rather than looking for proper jobs.”

At this moment, the owner of the internet cafe said, ”Little Yue, take this dinner to the customer at computer No. 52.”

Little Yue wondered, ”Boss, he doesn’t seem to have ordered any food.”

The boss said, ”The great god is here to play games. Everything is on the house. Quickly take it to him.”

Little Yue was surprised, as she was new and unaware of the misfortunes Chu Hao had once caused in this internet cafe.

Back then, Chu Hao had made the owner extremely wary. Every computer he touched would malfunction. The owner eventually begged him to come back another day when everything would be on the house; only then did Chu Hao leave.

There were legends of Brother Hao everywhere, after all.
