Ghost Catching System

You want to learn the kind that can kill a person with one punch?

Oh my god, why are you so violent.

Chu Hao said speechlessly, ”What do you want to learn that for? Are you planning to kill someone?”

Luo Yan insisted stubbornly, ”I just want to learn it.”

After thinking for a while, I decided to buy her the Beginners Marrow Cleansing Manual. It’s cheap and quite suitable for Luo Yan.

”System, purchase the Beginners Marrow Cleansing Manual.”

”DING... Host has bought the Beginners Marrow Cleansing Manual, consuming 500 Pretentiousness Points.”

For me, 500 Pretentiousness Points are too few; now showing off once can earn me 3,000 points. Moreover, I’m curious whether outsiders can use items from the System.

Chu Hao said, ”System, let Luo Yan learn the Beginners Marrow Cleansing Manual.”

System notification: ”For an outsider to learn a store item, they must pay additional Pretentiousness Points. The Beginners Marrow Cleansing Manual requires a payment of 1,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

To have to pay extra Pretentiousness Points, isn’t the System just scamming people?

Chu Hao said, ”System, why are you so extortionate?”

System: ”Stupid Host, stop vilifying the System at every turn! The Host has loaded the Ghost-catching Pretentious System, and this system understands the Host’s body structure. Outsiders haven’t loaded it, so they can only learn through a transfer. To transfer it safely, they have to pay additional Pretentiousness Points.”

So that’s what it meant. The System only serves me, not others. If I want the System to serve someone else, I have to pay Pretentiousness Points.

Chu Hao said, ”Pay it. Let her learn the Beginners Marrow Cleansing Manual.”

System notification: ”Host, just touch her forehead with your hand to immediately transfer it.”

Chu Hao placed one hand on Luo Yan’s brow.

Luo Yan had no idea what was going on when she felt a surge of energy pouring into her body, instantly feeling fiery hot.

”What’s going on! It’s so hot,” Luo Yan exclaimed in shock.

Chu Hao withdrew his hand but continued to watch Luo Yan. ”Don’t panic, I’m just forcing out the energy in your body.”

”What energy?”

Luo Yan’s face was burning up, feeling even hotter than a sauna.

Finally, Luo Yan felt the heat subside significantly. Steam rose from her body as her pores expelled numerous toxins, causing her to shriek.

Chu Hao said, ”You better go take a bath quickly. Your body is expelling toxins.”

With a cry of alarm, Luo Yan ran off.

Chu Hao asked the System, ”Is it that the higher the level of the item, the more Pretentiousness Points are needed to transfer it?”

”Yes.”

It seems cultivating another expert besides myself will be quite difficult.

Chu Hao said, ”Purchase the Intermediate Foundation Building Manual.”

”DING... Host has bought the Intermediate Foundation Building Manual, spending 20,000 Pretentiousness Points, leaving 7,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

This was the last Intermediate Foundation Building Manual available. His strength was continuously increasing, so he immediately began to prepare the medicinal bath, concocting it just as he had done the previous times.

Sitting in the large medicinal tub, Chu Hao said, ”Learn the Intermediate Foundation Building Manual.”

”DING... Host is learning the Intermediate Foundation Building Manual.”

The Foundation Building Scripture transformed into True Qi that rushed into his body. This sensation was already familiar, but this time, the True Qi inside him accumulated to a peak, incredibly vast, as if it was waiting for the next breakthrough. No one knew what would happen then.

Moreover, each influx of True Qi was enhancing his physical constitution, toughening his skin, flesh, bones, and internal organs.

Chu Hao muttered to himself, ”The next target: the Advanced Foundation Building Scripture.”

「Moving on to Luo Yan.」

After her bath, she was astonished to find that her skin was even better than before. Already a beautiful and elegant woman, she now looked even more tender and tantalizing, prompting men to desire a taste.

Especially her long legs, which were smoother and whiter, could rightly be called supermodel legs without exaggeration. They felt strong, as if a kick could easily knock down a grown man.

Luo Yan couldn’t believe it and wondered what exactly Chu Hao had done to her to cause such a significant transformation.

”This is amazing,” she said.

Luo Yan sought out Chu Hao and asked seriously, ”What did you do to me?”

Chu Hao said, ”I stimulated your inner potential.”

Luo Yan asked earnestly again, ”Are you an immortal?”

Chu Hao replied, ”I am the star of literature and martial arts descended to earth.”

Luo Yan rolled her eyes and said, ”I feel really good now. Can we do it again?”

Chu Hao was speechless. ”Lady, it’s not that easy. Let’s leave it at this for now. Since you want to enter the Yin and Yang Realm, you’ll have to learn other things.”

Luo Yan said, ”Alright then.”

Luo Yan suddenly asked, ”Right, Chan’er is also from the Yin and Yang Realm, isn’t she?”

Chu Hao nodded slightly.

Luo Yan, grinning, said, ”I will try my best to catch up with Chan’er.”

Well, I really don’t know what she’s thinking.

Next, Chu Hao taught Luo Yan the breathing techniques of the Cleansing Marrow Scripture. He did not transmit the knowledge directly to her but guided her step by step, like a teacher. Surprisingly, Luo Yan learned very quickly and soon mastered the breathing techniques.

Chu Hao also taught her some knowledge about the Yin and Yang Realm.

For example, drawing talismans and so on; Luo Yan had truly set one foot into the Yin and Yang Realm.

One day, someone at the Sanqing Pavilion requested assistance, and Luo Yan went along. Although she returned looking a bit shaken and clearly frightened, she had successfully eliminated the Fierce Ghost, which was quite astonishing to everyone.

The changes in Luo Yan gave Chu Hao some ideas.

Should I form a Yin and Yang team? Perhaps such a team could help me achieve some success in the tasks from the extraordinary factions. However, the cost would be too great; the Pretentiousness Points simply wouldn’t suffice. I have to set aside this idea for now.

That night, as Chu Hao slept, his breathing was even. His chest rose and fell like a bellows. Anyone unaware might have thought he was snoring. In reality, he was practicing the True Qi Breathing Technique, which was highly effective, allowing him to wake up refreshed and mentally rejuvenated the next day.

”Chu Hao.”

In his sleep, Chu Hao heard someone calling his name. The voice was sharp, as if speaking with a bitten tongue.

Chu Hao abruptly opened his eyes and said coldly, ”Who’s there!”

Before him, the ground swirled with black fog from which a ghost emerged. It wore a sharp-pointed white hat with the word ’Judgment’ written on it. Its long tongue lolled out, caught between its teeth, its face was pallid, and it emitted a terrifying aura. It was clearly no ordinary ghost.

The pointy-hatted ghost said, ”I am a Judgment Officer from the Yin Cao Netherworld. As you have become an Inborn Expert in the Human World, I am here on behalf of the Underworld to inquire if you would like to register as an Underworld Yin-Yang Human.”

All my drowsiness vanished. So this is what Lan Zhen meant by registering as a Yin-Yang Person! The Judgment Officer actually came to me. Now that I understood, my vigilance eased. I wonder how the Underworld knew I was an Inborn Expert?

Chu Hao asked, ”How did your Underworld find out that I’m an Inborn Expert?”

The Judgment Officer explained, ”The lifespan of an Inborn Expert is no longer within the range of ordinary humans. Your name has been recorded in the Predestined Life and Death Register.”

Chu Hao was astounded; he knew his lifespan had increased. He queried, ”How many years have been added to my life?”

”The Book of Life and Death cannot reveal that,” the Judgment Officer said.
