pression."What's up, hey... it's the middle of the night..." I reminded him.“Let’s get going right away and head back tonight. Lin Yanhuan has nothing important to do there, so the sooner we leave, th...Chúlíng was even more aggressive toward Liàng Xiǎo Ge, glaring at him and saying: "I knew it was you! You actually sided with outsiders! We've known each other since we were kids, and you're helping outsiders against me!"

Liang Xiaoge retorted, "Don't deceive yourself, Chúlíng. This is the wife of the Witch King, the future mistress of Wucheng Mountain City. How could she be an outsider! All this fuss you make is pointless—it won't—"

"Still impossible to become a princess," I said nonchalantly.

Her cheeks were flushed, and she let out a huff of indignation, her admiration for the Witch King evident.

That's understandable. In that kind of place, information is scarce, and the Witch King is like a public idol, similar to how fans are obsessed with celebrities nowadays.

Though I understand her, she also needs to have some brains. Constantly causing trouble like this is unbearable for anyone.

"Don't keep making foolish mistakes. Last time you were used and didn't even realize it. With your little bit of magic, it's best to stay within the temple walls and avoid causing trouble... Your brother, isn't he supposed to be coming back to take you home" I asked with a frown.

"...Not yet." she replied, averting her gaze.

Um Who is that person in the phone screen picture

I took out my phone and asked, "Who is this person, and what did you say to him"

Chū Líng took a look and frowned, "It's the scout from Wú Wáng Shān City. My brother sent him to find me! If he finds me, I'll scold him severely. He'll definitely go back to my brother and report my whereabouts!"

Scout I looked at the little paper man, A-Liang, who was clinging to my hair and climbing up to my shoulders.

A Liang whispered in my ear, "Normally, they would send out some special personnel who have been given a curse to handle matters or gather intelligence. These scouts are in danger if they don't return. These people hold high positions in the Wuzhuang Mountain City and are formidable figures... But I reckon even they wouldn't dare to act against Miss Chūlíng."

"How can we get this stupid girl back She talks without thinking, she must have been tricked by Tang Yufeng into revealing a lot." I frowned.

Chūlíng hummed softly, clasping her hands together and saying, "Rest assured, if anything harms the Shaman King, I won't say a word."

"Your brain has holes, can you tell what's beneficial and what's not"

"You—"

I can't see eye to eye with her. We start arguing after just a few words.

Liang Xiaogē said cleverly, "Little Princess, why don't we just leave Chū Líng alone"

"What" I frowned, playing along with his exercise.

"If Chu Ling isn't suitable, just let her stay outside the temple gates. Don't let her come back. You should hurry and marry the Shaman King. That way, Chu Ling won't cause any trouble there. She can't help anyway and will only be jealous!" Liang Xiaoge spoke with convincing fervor.

I raised an eyebrow. A-Liang, you're really a die-hard fan of Mu Wanchen, aren't you You always try to kill two birds with one stone and defend your idol.

This sentence, do I answer it Or not

But Chu Ling had already widened her eyes, unable to stop herself from asking, "Marriage! You mean... the Shaman King wants to marry her! What's so good about her! Just keep raising the Yin Gu just raise the Yin Gu! She isn't one of us, she's an outsider!"

"It's none of your business, stop asking so many questions. I came to you out of kindness, not wanting you to continue making trouble and being used by others. Listen or don't listen… Ah Liang, let's go. She doesn't want to live with Mu Wanchen at my place, so let her stay here and be deceived." I said to Ah Liang.

Actually, I must get rid of her. Staying here any longer is unbearable!

There was no other choice but to sacrifice Mu Wanchen as bait.

"The Witch King is staying at your house" she frowned.

"Nonsense, you stay in my room, but you give me the guest room."

She was like a powder keg, ready to explode. Her face flushed red when she heard this, and she turned and ran upstairs, probably to get her luggage.

Liang Xiaoge tugged at my hair, his voice low: "Your Majesty the Little Princess is so mean... Intentionally making her angry."

I was secretly pleased, but I said on the surface, "That's called being clever."

A hazy ghost emerged from the hallway, giving me a fright. Now that the sun is setting and the yang energy is weakening, could these ghosts be out for a stroll

"Hey, why do you guys always use empty houses to raise spirits Do these ghosts, and even guiling, need to live in a house" I asked Ah Liang quietly.

Aling answered in a low voice: “That’s right! Think about it, to let a dead person retain consciousness, they first need a ‘house’ to live in. Without a body, they can only use things like houses.”

Ah, I see...

"My Lady, have you ever noticed those abandoned houses where you get goosebumps as soon as you step inside Places with no life energy are easily taken over by restless spirits or become their dwelling. I believe that the spirit, Chúlíng, chose this place because it provides a suitable environment for her spirit to thrive."

Just like Guiling, to make them accustomed to obeying their master's commands, they must live close to their master's life, so that their hearts can connect.

No wonder.

I once was coiled by a serpent spirit on the stone corridor outside Mu Wanchen's room. At the time, I thought a female ghost had followed me, but it turned out to be a gu spirit raised in the Witch King's Palace.

"Where did these spirits come from" I asked.

Aling whispered, "Didn't the scouts come out Some lonely ghosts or even vicious ghosts were caught and put in specific places in Wuwang City to be tamed."

As she spoke, she saw Chuling go downstairs carrying a large bag. She used a bamboo tube inscribed with countless arcane runes and talismans to summon the spirits into it.

I kept a close eye on that, bamboo tube huh

When Mu Wanchen, Jun Senior Brother, and Yun Fan Senior Uncle returned, it was already evening. He came straight to my room to see me and found Liang Xiaoge sitting at my desk with the Xuan Yue, a spirit of mink, that he had secretly left behind.

Xuan Yue manifested a physical form, holding potato chips and munching on them. Liang Xiaoge and I were chatting on the side.

“What are you doing” he asked, frowning.

"No! We're chatting!" Liang Xiaogē immediately replied.

Mu Wanchen's obvious disbelief was apparent. He scanned the room, prohibiting himself from walking towards my dressing table, and pulled open a drawer.

Inside was a bamboo tube.

He frowned and said, "How did this get in your room You wouldn't use it, it's very dangerous."

I chuckled, "I took it so that it wouldn't end up in Chuling's hands. Who knows what she might do with it She could be manipulated again. I have to make sure my family is safe."

"Confiscate How could Chuling possibly be willing to hand this over" Mu Wanchen refused to believe it.

I licked my lips and smiled, " ... Xuan Yue is a good child."

His gaze fell on Xuan Yue, who was greedily munching chips at the table, her head even dipped into the chip bucket.

A Liang muttered softly, "Lord Xuan Yue has been bought by the little princess..." bunch of little ghost attendants appeared on the other side of the hallway, dozens of them.As soon as they saw my brother run over, they immediately scrambled to stand against the wall and shouted, “...
