Jiang Linger couldnât help but widen her eyes, seemingly stunned at the person slowly emerging from the darkness in front of her, even unconsciously lowering the sword in her hand.
What a beautiful person!
She marveled in her heart, and then quickly shook herself awake.
No, this is the Yin Yang Realm, the lair of the Ghost King of Lanling, how could there possibly be anyone here?
The one in front of her must be a female ghost.
But...
Jiang Linger couldnât help but steal a glance at Gu Shengyin. This female ghost is really so beautiful.
Gu Shengyin turned her gaze towards Jiang Linger.
The other personâs eyes were very clear, and the gaze directed at her was filled with undisguised astonishment and admiration.
No one would be opposed to such a gaze, including Gu Shengyin.
She smiled and spoke, "Where did this human little girl come from? This is not a place where you should be."
Jiang Linger tried to compose herself, making her expression become more serious.
"Iâm here to find someone... no, to find a ghost." She said with a straight face.
Gu Shengyin stifled a laugh, as the original storyline never mentioned that Jiang Linger was such an adorable girl.
Following Jiang Lingerâs words, she asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Jiang Linger looked at her somewhat warily, "Why are you asking so many questions?"
Gu Shengyin smiled and replied, "Iâve lived in this place for many, many years. I definitely know the ghost youâre looking for."
Jiang Linger still didnât speak.
She was a person of principles; how could she reveal her purpose just because this female ghost in front of her was pretty!
Seeing her like this, Gu Shengyin really wanted to pinch her puffy cheeks.
She said, "Actually, even if you donât say, I know who youâre looking for."
Jiang Linger didnât fall for it, "Then tell me, who am I looking for?"
Gu Shengyin replied quickly, "Youâre looking for the famous Ghost King of Lanling, arenât you?"
Jiang Lingerâs eyes widened, "How do you know that?"
Gu Shengyin couldnât help but laugh, "Thereâs nothing in this world that I donât know."
Jiang Linger found the person in front of her very mysterious and couldnât help but ask, "Since you know who Iâm looking for, can you take me to him?"
Gu Shengyin deliberately said, "Why should I take you to find the Ghost King of Lanling? Besides, how do you know the one I take you to is the real Ghost King of Lanling?"
She was intentionally giving Jiang Linger a hard time.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Linger thought carefully for a moment, then nodded, "Youâre quite right. My master told me that when asking for help, you should prepare a gift. Although youâre not human, the logic should be the same."
She looked around, then took an intricately designed jade clasp from her waist, "This jade clasp was given to me by my master for my coming-of-age ceremony. It is a magic artifact that can nurture a spiritual body, which should be very useful for a ghost like you."
Then she looked up and asked Gu Shengyin, "How about I trade this for information about the Ghost King of Lanling?"
Gu Shengyin thought to herself, quite generous.
"As for your second question."
Jiang Linger frowned, seeming a bit troubled, then looking at Gu Shengyinâs face, suddenly brightened up, "Youâre so good-looking, you definitely wouldnât lie to me!"
Gu Shengyin: "..."
Good looks mean you wonât lie, what kind of logic is that?
Gu Shengyin was momentarily stunned.
But she quickly regained her calm expression, something Jiang Linger didnât even notice.
