Chapter 0123 – One Operation – Absolute Return

I turned my attention to the ghostly spirit.

Ghost Spirit, Ghost Spirit, say something!

‘I don’t want to get married! I am not happy at all! Am I the only one against this marriage?’

Ghost Lingzi was just about to open his mouth to reprimand Xu Ran, but he was stopped by Lin Xiang.

“I’m sorry, he’s a friend I’ve had since I was a kid and he just can’t bear to see me marry.”

“He was concerned about you.” The ghostly spirit said with a smile.

“Care about me? If you care about me, you should bless me, not embarrass me! He’s just drunk and bullshitting!”

I sighed helplessly as I looked at the Ghost Spirit’s look of deep emotion.

”You’re getting in deeper and deeper!”

It seemed that Lin Xiang wasn’t useless. If Ghost Spirit could truly know her and understand her, perhaps they could really live happily ever after.

Halfway through the banquet, Ghost Spirit excused himself to get some air and walked out of the lobby.

Although he didn’t show it, he was getting annoyed inside.

It was all because of Zhou Ming’s words just now. He began to regret why he hadn’t stood up to refute him just now.

Could it be that, in Lin Xiang’s eyes, he was a coward?

If I had stepped in and taught him a lesson, would I have proved myself? No, I couldn’t do that. My father once warned me not to get involved in Jianghu disputes. What’s more, it was just a misunderstanding between friends, why should I make a big deal out of it? However, if I don’t make a move, won’t I look like a coward?

Ghost Spirit’s heart was incredibly torn, he hated this indecisive self.

He walked aimlessly, and before he knew it, he was in his study.

He stood by the window and looked into the study, gradually calming down inside. Ever since he was a child, whenever he encountered frustration or was scolded by his father, he would hide in the study, which was his only haven.

He knew that he didn’t like that kind of life of fighting and killing, he preferred to immerse himself in the sea of books and study those arcane spells.

”I’ll have to find an opportunity to bring Miss Lin to my study.”

He wanted Lin Xiang to know what a knowledgeable person he was.

“You have quite a collection of books in your study.” A voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Ghost Spirit was startled and turned around in a hurry, only to see me standing behind him.

“I was bored and came out to get some air, and without realizing it, I walked here.”

“So it is.”

“In all my years of wandering the world, this is the first time I’ve seen a study with such a rich collection of books.”

“I’ve loved reading since I was a kid.”

“I also have a friend close to me who loves to read.”

“Oh? Introduce me to them sometime.”

It was as if I could already see what kind of wonderful expression Ghost Spirit would show when he realized that the person I was talking about was Blood Heavenly Blade Demon. Just thinking about the Blood Heavenly Saber Demon’s look of hatred, I couldn’t help but want to laugh.

I walked side by side with the ghostly spirit toward the lobby.

“Brother Xu and Miss Lin are truly a match made in heaven.”

“You don’t have to comfort me, I know you’re saying these things on purpose because of what just happened. I don’t care anymore.”

“I think you’re clearly jealous. If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to resist lifting the table if I saw that the woman I liked was going to marry someone else.”

I purposely used this way to dissolve the depression in Ghost Spirit’s heart. Whether I wanted to stop this wedding or not, I had to get along with him first.

And the fastest way to get closer is to say what the other person loves to hear.

“Don’t worry, one day he’ll regret it, he’ll wake up from his dream and then hug the water tank and pour cold water into it, crying out in pain and crying, ‘I was so demoralized in the first place!'”

Hearing my words, Ghost Spirit couldn’t help but laugh. Since he was unhappy because of this matter, let’s use this matter to cheer him up.

“You’ve been very restrained, if it were me, I’m afraid I would have rushed up and fought him to the death.”

The ghostly spirit stopped, looked at me, and asked, “Have we met before?”

Ghost Spirit, Ghost Spirit, have you already had a premonition of something? With your intelligence, you might really be able to detect a hint.

“I believe this is the first time we’ve met?”

“But I always thought you looked familiar.”

“In this world, there are always people who make you feel as if you’ve known them for a long time at first sight. You’re like an old friend of mine, you make me feel incredibly close and I can’t help but want to be close to you.”

“Maybe. ……”

I said the words that Ghost Lingzi loved to hear while secretly testing his reaction. Even the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon and the Extremely Evil Evil Demon couldn’t resist my sugar-coated bombs, let alone the world-weary Ghost Lingzi.

Of course, too much is too little, and I ended the thread in moderation.

“Well, if you’ll excuse me.”

After saying that, I turned around and walked into the lobby, leaving Ghost Spirit Son standing alone, recalling what I had just said.

After the party, I asked Heart, “What do you think of Xu Ran?”

At the banquet, Heart had been sitting and chatting with Xu Ran.

“I like her a lot, and she’s perfect for the second team leader.”

“I’ve always had a good eye.”

“There’s a problem, though.”

“You’re trying to say if she’s willing to join our Heavenly Demon God Sect, right?”

“Exactly.”

“Although the Ghost Sect doesn’t belong to the Righteous Way or the Devil’s Way, historically, there have been disciples from the Ghost Sect who have joined the Heavenly Demon God Sect. As long as you persuade them properly, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

“I didn’t realize you knew quite a bit about the Ghost Gate.”

“I did my homework before coming here.”

Actually, I heard all of this from Xu Ran. At first, Xu Ran didn’t want to join any sect, she just wanted to be a free-spirited wanderer.

“We’ll be returning to the Heavenly Demon God Sect soon, so I’m afraid there’s no way we can bring her with us. However, you can make an appointment with her first, and when she thinks it over, she can go to the Heavenly Demon God Sect to look for us.”

When she got tired of her current life and wanted to escape the Ghost Gate, she would think of the heart and the Heavenly Demon Sect.

“I will, and I’ll tell her that if she wants to contact us, just go to any Westlake Inn in the world and leave her name.”

“Well, I’ll leave this one to you.”

In addition to the heart, I’m trying to find a way to make Xu Ran owe me a favor as well. I want to make the trajectory of destiny, follow my plan.

“By the way, my lord, how do you plan to stop the Ghost Spirit’s wedding?”

After seeing how Ghost Spirit and Lin Xiang behaved at the banquet, I had changed my mind.

Elder Guo, the blacksmith of the Heavenly Demon God Sect, once said that details determine success or failure.

I believe the same applies to relationships. One small change can change the end result. Maybe, I can’t change a person, but I can change the relationship between them.

A word, can make people grateful, liver and brain; a word, can also make people disheartened, part ways; a word, can even make people turn against each other, old and dead.

That’s human nature.

So, I decided to change my strategy.

“I won’t stop their wedding, but I will make them happy together.”

Ghost Lingzi, Ghost Lingzi, you are destined to marry Lin Xiang. But I can help you open another door, so you can see a different scenery.
