Chapter 176: Chapter 176: An Ancestor Scarier than Ghosts
Jiangli didn’t seem afraid at all and grabbed that handful of hair to yank it viciously outwards.
Xia Xin instantly felt his scalp tighten.
With the vigor of their ancestor…if it had been a real person, their scalp would probably have been ripped off!
Wang Yao screamed upon seeing the hair.
“Just, just now it was this thing entangling me, it was this! She’s still here!”
Xia Xin was startled by him and almost failed to steady him.
In the chaos of trying to hold Wang Yao, before Xia Xin could speak, he saw Jiangli grab the hair and yank it outwards viciously.
The entire faucet immediately let out a wailing hum as if it was about to snap.
Jiangli, seemingly oblivious, held on to the hair tightly. The next second, she freed one hand and slapped it onto the faucet.
With a bang, a translucent shadow wriggled out from the faucet and tumbled to the ground, looking disheveled.
Xia Xin’s face twitched violently.
Wang Yao rolled his eyes back and fainted.
Xia Xin steadied Wang Yao in a panic and looked toward the female ghost.
Actually, the female ghost wasn’t that frightening.
She was dressed in a white dress and appeared to be quite young.
She seemed more comical than terrifying at the moment.
Jiangli held her hair with an indifferent expression while the female ghost looked more like the one being bullied, pitiful and incredibly aggrieved.
No matter how Xia Xin looked at it, the scene seemed absurdly bizarre.
“Master, have mercy, please spare me…”
The female ghost sobbed, tugging at her own hair, trying to rescue her hair from Jiangli’s grasp.
Jiangli said coldly, “Wang Yao holds no grudge against you, and seeing the heavy Evil Qi in your soul, you must be a pitiful person. Why did you target him?”
The female ghost explained hastily, “No, I didn’t want to harm him. It’s because he had the Gengchen Sticker, and I could only follow him. Someone told me to follow him, saying that this way, I could go to Fengdu to be reincarnated.”
Jiangli frowned slightly, “Someone? Who is that?”
“It’s, it’s the person who gave my Gengchen Sticker to Wang Yao’s mother…” The female ghost choked, carefully protecting her hair.
She didn’t have much hair to begin with, and the Amulet had burned some, with Jiangli now holding onto it.
If she lost any more, she would go bald!
At the mention of this, Jiangli turned to look at Xia Xin and Wang Yao.
Seeing Wang Yao fainted, Jiangli said, “Get some water and wake him up.”
Seeing he hadn’t moved, Jiangli frowned, “What are you waiting for?”
Not daring to disobey, Xia Xin managed to scoop some water from the bathtub and splashed it on Wang Yao’s face.
Wang Yao opened his eyes groggily.
Before he could come to his senses, Jiangli brought the female ghost over, pressing her face in front of his.
Wang Yao almost didn’t catch his breath and fainted again.
At that moment, Jiangli warned, “Don’t faint. If you faint again, I’ll send you to keep her company!”
The threat was too strong.
Wang Yao, holding his breath, managed not to pass out again.
Only then did Jiangli, satisfied, lift up the female ghost’s face for Wang Yao to see, “Look carefully, have you seen her before?”
Wang Yao was stiff as a board, how could he dare to look?
But fearing Jiangli might actually send him to accompany the ghost…
He steeled himself and painfully turned to look.
The next second, his gaze faltered.
The female ghost was not as scary as he had imagined.
There were no injuries on her face, just a long bruise around her neck, indicating she’d likely been strangled to death while alive.
Her face was clean and white, actually quite beautiful.
Furthermore, being restrained by Jiangli, she had the appearance of a pitiful and aggrieved little white flower, making her look even less like a ghost.
A single look made Jiangli appear more terrifying instead.
