Ghost Catching System

Chu Hao was at a loss for words. It seemed the Toad was truly enraged.

Chu Hao still explained to the media, ”It’s a misunderstanding. The Toad is my guest, not some pet.”

The media trembled with fear, not daring to utter a word.

Hands on hips, the Toad stood there like a little tyrant and declared, ”Did you hear that? I am Chu Hao’s guest! Anyone who dares to call me a pet again, I’ll cripple them and drag them back to be tied with a dog leash and kept as a human pet!”

The group of media members nodded their heads, trembling.

The Unfeeling Woman walked over. She was tall and graceful, her skin as white as jade and seemingly oozing with moisture, looking even more glamorous in her outfit today.

”Chu Hao.”

Seeing Yi Qinglian, Chu Hao was also pleased. He had known she would come to the invitation event and had already decided to deal with his personal issues after it was over. After all, we aren’t children anymore, are we?

”Qinglian,” Chu Hao stepped forward to greet her.

The Unfeeling Woman approached Chu Hao, and her face turned icy. She delivered a harsh slap across Chu Hao’s face.

The media gasped in astonishment. It happened so suddenly, and they frantically snapped photographs.

What—what is happening? The media were befuddled. Weren’t the two of them said to be in a relationship? Yi Qinglian had even confessed her feelings.

The Unfeeling Woman said coldly, ”Scum, you’re not worthy of me.”

After saying this, the Unfeeling Woman turned and walked away, her mood extremely uplifted, even revealing a smile as she turned.

Chu Hao stood there stunned, touching his cheek. What was going on? Was I slapped just for showing up? Could it be that the matter of me deflowering Luo Yan leaked out? Luo Yan didn’t say anything, and I didn’t say anything. Who would know?

The Toad chuckled and said, ”That hit where it hurts, Old Tie.”

Chu Hao cursed, ”Scram!”

Yi Qingcheng came over and sighed, ”Ah-Hao, that was the Unfeeling Woman just now. She has awakened.”

Chu Hao was startled and asked hastily, ”Then what about Qinglian?”

Le Shen shook her head. ”I’m not sure about the current situation either, but I can feel that Qinglian is still there, presumably just suppressed by the Unfeeling Woman.”

After learning the truth, Chu Hao heaved a sigh of relief.

Chu Hao touched his cheek, fuming. ”That girl hits hard. To slap me in the face like that… I wonder if it hurts my dear Qinglian’s hand.”

The Toad looked at him sideways and said, ”Getting hit and still worrying about the other person’s feelings? I despise you.”

Chu Hao said mercilessly, ”A toad wants to talk about love with humans? Do you even know what love is? Go play by yourself.”

”Damn it!” The Toad was furious.

The media were beside themselves with excitement. It seemed the relationship between Chu Hao and Yi Qinglian had fractured—this was big news!

Knowing it was the Unfeeling Woman, Chu Hao wasn’t too bothered. As long as Yi Qinglian is fine, it doesn’t matter if the Unfeeling Woman hits me.

System, is there an item that can see Yi Qinglian’s soul? Chu Hao asked in his mind.

The System responded, ”Host is recommended to upgrade Truth’s Curse. It requires ten thousand Pretentiousness Points.”

For Chu Hao now, ten thousand Pretentiousness Points was nothing significant.

”Upgrade.”

”DING... Host has spent ten thousand Pretentiousness Points. Remaining Pretentiousness Points: fifteen thousand.”

The original Truth’s Curse allowed him to see the strength of others’ True Qi clearly. After the upgrade, it could reveal the strength of their Three Souls and Seven Spirits.

Chu Hao formed a seal with one hand and swiped it before his eyes, looking toward the Unfeeling Woman’s retreating figure.

The Unfeeling Woman’s vast soul enveloped Yi Qinglian’s soul. It seems she’s merely asleep.

Chu Hao was pleased. Yi Qinglian’s soul was unharmed, merely suppressed by the Unfeeling Woman. This is probably due to her spiritual cultivation during this period; her soul became more resolute while the Unfeeling Woman was dormant.

Chu Hao relaxed.

”Brother Chu,” Wu Qingfeng came over, the stout man as enthusiastic as ever.

Chu Hao said, ”Long time no see.”

Wu Qingfeng enjoyed talking with Chu Hao. He also greeted the Toad, saying, ”Toad, you’ve gotten bigger! Congratulations!”

Standing with an almost human-like demeanor, arms folded, the Toad turned to Wu Qingfeng with a dark face and said, ”I am not a toad! What’s there to congratulate?”

Wu Qingfeng chuckled and whispered, ”I found a female Toad Spirit at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. I’ll introduce her to you someday.”

Chu Hao interjected, ”Then what are we waiting for? Does she use WeChat? Toad, hurry up and add her as a friend!”

The Toad was infuriated and exclaimed, ”Are you two brats looking for death? I’m getting angry now! Kiddo Chu, what are you strutting about for, still so happy after being dumped by a woman?”

Chu Hao waved his hand and said, ”A toad like you wouldn’t understand love. You’ll never experience it in this lifetime.”

”Damn it to hell, Chu Hao, you just wait! I’m going to find a partner right now!”

The two laughed heartily. They knew the Toad fancied human beauties and was very averse to other toads.

They entered the venue. Wu Qingfeng whispered, ”What on earth does Shangu Yizun want to do? What’s the meaning behind this subversion?”

Chu Hao replied coldly, ”I don’t care what they want to do. I’m here today to make trouble. They think they can just sweep it under the rug! As if I, Chu Hao, am easy to bully!”

Wu Qingfeng had also heard about the Valley Financial Group trying to kill Chu Hao. He said, ”If there’s a fight later, I’m on your side. Let’s finish him off! That Wo Country Yin Yang Master dares to be arrogant on our turf!”

The venue for the summit was grand, equipped with high-end facilities—a true meeting place for upper-class society.

However, this time, in addition to Yin Yang Masters, the attendees included many influential individuals with vast financial resources, all engaged in conversation.

”Master Zhang, I’d like to invest in Dragon-Tiger Academy. I’m planning an initial investment of one billion. I wonder if that’s possible?” a businessman said politely to Zhang Zhonghao.

Zhang Zhonghao replied indifferently, ”Dragon-Tiger Academy lacks talent, not funds.”

The businessman was frustrated. It feels like money doesn’t mean much in front of a Yin Yang Great Master.

Other businessmen were also looking for people to talk to, seizing this excellent opportunity. In the future, Yin-Yang People would hold extremely high status, so befriending them now could ensure one’s safety.

Yin-Yang People were the main hosts at the summit, and many young Yin Yang Masters, from Five Stars to Ten Stars, had been invited.

The moment Shui Muqing set eyes on Yi Qingcheng, he was captivated and approached her to initiate conversation.

Shui Muqing, looking dashing in a suit and holding a glass of red wine, walked over with a gentlemanly smile. ”Qinglian, I only just found out you have a twin sister.”

The Unfeeling Woman said teasingly, ”What? You’re interested in my sister? Then you’ll have to give it your all.”

Since both were stars before the resurgence of the terrifying era, they naturally had some prior acquaintance. Besides, the Unfeeling Woman possessed Yi Qinglian’s memories.

Shui Muqing smiled. ”Don’t lose heart. Who hasn’t fallen for a jerk at this age?”

The ”jerk” he referred to was Chu Hao.

The Unfeeling Woman was delighted. Someone insulting Chu Hao—perfect! ”That kind of jerk indeed deserves to die. Sooner or later, I’ll tear him to pieces!”

Watching the two of them, Le Shen said indifferently, ”You two can continue chatting.”

She turned and left.

Shui Muqing initially wanted to follow her, but then he had a second thought. Her sister is here. To pursue the elder sister, I need to build a good relationship with the younger one first.

”Qinglian, what kind of guy does your sister like?”

Seeing Le Shen walk away, the Unfeeling Woman’s expression cooled. ”You? Trying to pursue my sister? A toad lusting after a swan’s flesh? Scram!”

Shui Muqing’s face darkened. ”...”
