My Zombie Husband

Chapter 57 Pressed by the Ghost

Translator: Cheryl_M

Lu Zhou knew who Zhao Ziyi was. He didn’t dare to fight with Zhao Ziyi, but he wouldn’t let go of Xia Mingyu, who was quiet now. He didn’t believe that it was the young man who knocked him and his peers down this morning. Chen Yutian must have made a trick in the dark.

“Master Zhao, I don’t have any other requirements. After all, I was beaten by him today, wasn’t I? What about the compensation fee…” Lu Zhou rubbed his palms and looked at Zhao Ziyi with greedy eyes. Zhao Ziyi didn’t say anything else, and pulled out a check worth $ 100,000 to him. “Take it. You had better not talk about this matter anymore. Besides, tell Du Tao that Xiaoyu is my younger brother. If he dares to make trouble again, I will teach him a lesson. I’m not only a young master.”

Lu Zheng took the check and immediately changed his attitude completely, saying with a smile, “Of course. Since Master Zhao has made the request, I will handle it well.”

Xia Mingyu frowned slightly. He didn’t want Zhao Ziyi to help him in this way, but just as he was about to speak, Chen Yutian came out of the bathroom. The other people tacitly didn’t mention what happened just now. Surely Chen Yutian had no idea what was going on. He just walked over and shouted at Xia Mingyu, “Xia Mingyu, go and take a shower. Your bed has been made and there’s nothing left to deal with.”

“Umm, I’ll go after I get my clothes.” Xia Mingyu nodded and went to check the cabinet, and Zhao Ziyi also came to ask him, “Xiaoyu, may I have your phone number?”

“…” Stunned for a moment, Xia Mingyu took out the clothes of the cabinet and scratched the back of his head with a little embarrassment, “I… I lost my cell phone…”

“Is that so? That’s right. I have another one here. Here you are. Press Number One and you will reach me.” Zhao Ziyi said that and handed over the iphone10 to Xia Mingyu. It was the latest type of iphone and Xia Mingyu saw that Sun Yaxin had one too.

“No need.” Xia Mingyu didn’t want to owe Zhao Ziyi too much, so he kept rejecting it. However, Chen Yutian came over and placed his phone into his pocket. “Take it. Don’t you still have to talk to your girlfriend? Why do you reject your elder brother’s gift?”

“I don’t have a girlfriend!” Seriously irritated by Chen Yutian, Xia Mingyu glared at him. However, he said perfunctorily, “Okay, okay, okay. You don’t have a girlfriend. You have a boyfriend, okay? Take your phone and don’t lose it anymore.”

“I don’t… What do you mean, Chen Yutian?” Xia Mingyu suddenly realized what he meant. His pretty amber eyes were full of anger. What a nuisance!

Zhao Ziyi was upset to watch them bickering aside. He was the brother of Xia Mingyu. How could Chen Yutian be so cheeky?

“Hey, fine, Xia Mingyu, go and take a shower.” Chen Yutian dodged Xia Mingyu’s attack grinningly and then jumped onto the bed. Xia Mingyu glanced at him and entered the bathroom with his clothes.

The bathroom in the dormitory was no better than the bathroom in Sun Yaxin’s villa, but it was big enough for him. He took a quick shower. When he came out, everyone else had gone to bed. Xia Mingyu climbed onto bed. His bed was in the middle. Zhao Ziyi’s bed was on the left and Chen Yutian’s was on the right.

When he was on bed, Xia Mingyu thought a lot, such as the intermittent memory loss. He actually felt that it was impossible because he could not fight with others. After all, he didn’t like to cause trouble. Actually, neither did he want to go to school. He had already finished the high school courses and Zhao Ziyi should have done the same. Therefore, Zhao Ziyi went to school only to make friends with the children of influential families. It was a waste of money for him to go to school…

He couldn’t understand why Sun Yaxin let him come to school and Yun should agree on the idea. Worse still, he couldn’t reach Zhao Yun at the moment. Where was Zhao Yun? Working? Where was he working?

Xia Mingyu suddenly thought of Chiji, who messed with Zhao Yun at the karaoke club, and felt a bit bitter. He shook his head, turned over and decided not to think anymore. Then he tried to fall asleep.

By midnight, a puff of black smoke gathered above the young man’s bed. Xia Mingyu didn’t sleep well and he was not used to lying on his back, so he was about to sleep on his side. However, he found himself unable to move at all and felt a heavy weight on his body. Xia Mingyu suddenly opened his eyes and saw a female ghost in red.

The female ghost kept her appearance prior to dying, who looked quite pretty, straddling his body with a smile. There were a few female ghosts in red aside but they looked really awful with rolled eyes, just like unconscious puppets.

These puppet-like ghosts were transformed by the souls of those killed by the fierce ghost in red. They were not as strong as the fierce ghost, so they could only become the subordinate puppets of the fierce ghost. Xia Mingyu’s limbs were suppressed and he couldn’t move at all. He was afraid. After all, his kylin pendant couldn’t work now, making him unable to deal with the fierce ghost.

“Li Le, do you think I am pretty now? You once told me that you loved me most when I’m wearing the red dress. I’m wearing it now. Li Le, can we always be together?”

The female ghost in red laughed sweetly while Xia Mingyu shuddered in fear. If he replied, he would definitely be taken away. This female ghost had already lost most of her memories before her death. She couldn’t even recognize her lover and now she mistook Xia Mingyu as Li Le. How unlucky!

“Li Le, why don’t you say anything? Tell me! That we will always be together!” The female ghost shouted. Before Xia Mingyu could make a sound, she answered herself, “I see. Li Le, you said you wanted to break up with me. You said you were into other women! Why? Why? Are they pretty? Look at these girls! Are they prettier than me?”

The female ghosts roared ferociously, pointing at the female ghosts aside. Xia Mingyu still kept silent and started to chant diamond sutra in secret. Luckily, Mu Feng had required him to recite it before.

“Li Le, you are chanting the scripture? You want to cross me over? No way! It is you who killed me. I must make you pay for it!”The female ghost said so as she gripped Xia Mingyu’s neck. Gripped by the throat, Xia Mingyu was unable to breathe, let alone chanting the scripture, and his body couldn’t move. In this case, he would die soon. Was he going to meet the Black Guard and White Guard again…

The red mark in the middle of his eyebrows appeared suddenly. The Evil Soul was about to take action when a figure jumped inside from the window. Instantly, a spell was struck at the female ghost in the face, driving her away quickly. She screamed in pain and then stared in the dark fiercely with her ruined face. “Who? Who is there?”

Xia Mingyu was helped to stand up, and the Evil Soul inside his body was asleep. The young man with the awake Heavenly Soul shook his head in a daze and finally saw his helper. It turned out to be Wu Jiuge.

“Wu Jiuge? It’s you?” Well. He owed Wu Jiuge once again…

Wu Jiuge nodded and looked at Xia Mingyu apologetically, “Sorry, Young Master, I’m late.”

Wu Jiuge smelled like blood. Xia Mingyu just wanted to ask him when Wu Jiuge has pulled out the snake-shaped sword and started fighting with the female ghost. Xia Mingyu couldn’t be of any help, so he had to check on Zhao Ziyi and other people. He was worried that the female ghost had killed them first.

He checked their breath one by one and found that depsite their weak breath, they were still alive. Xia Mingyu sighed with relief. Then he saw Wu Jiuge subdued the female ghost. It seemed that Wu Jiuge did not want to kill her, but the female ghost took the opportunity to beckon other puppet ghosts to attack him. Wu Jiuge had to turn around and counterattack. The female ghost snorted and went at Wu Jiuge with her hands again.

“No!” Xia Mingyu cried out in shock, and the female ghost’s sharp hands were blocked. Tengxiao in a human shape chuckled. “Hey, Wu Jiuge, I saved you.”

“…” Wu Jiuge dispersed the puppet female ghosts and turned around to stare at Tengxiao, “Dumbass, where have you been? Didn’t I ask you to protect my Young Master?”

Tengxiao coughed a few times and waved its hand, “Well, I was hungry, so I left to find some food. I didn’t know the female ghost would come for him!”

“Ah! Men must be doomed!” The female ghost screamed hysterically and rushed straight to them. Tengxiao resisted the attack and fought back while Wu Jiange instantly moved behind the female ghost and quickly wrote the spell. Noticing that she was in trouble, the female ghost turned into a gust of cold wind and disappeared. The two of them didn’t chase after her.

Wu Jiuge withdrew the snake-shaped sword and came over to talk to Xia Mingyu, but suddenly he just passed out. Xia Mingyu was frightened. Tengxiao hurriedly came to support Wu Jiuge. After checking his injuries, he almost jumped up with anxiety. “Oh my god, did this guy just fight with a King of Corpse? He is so seriously injured!”

“What?” Xia Mingyu wanted to ask more, but Tengxiao didn’t give him a chance. It supported Wu Jiange and meant to leave. “He can’t hold on anymore. I have to take him back to  the Miao territory first. After that, I will come back to you then.”

“Hey, wait!” Before Xia Mingyu could figure out what had happened, Tengxiao had already disappeared into the darkness with Wu Jiuge. The young man clenched his fists. Wu Jiuge had a fight with a King of Corpse. Was it Yun? Was Yun also…

Again, dark current seemed to surge in the surrounding darkness. Countless ghosts were coming for the young man but they were eaten the outnumbered soul-eating worms when they got closer. “Food! Here it is! Food!”

The battle at night kicked off, but the young man was unaware of it. He went back to bed and continued to sleep. However, he couldn’t fall asleep after tossing and turning. He was worried that Zhao Yun would be injured and that Wu Jiuge’s injuries might get worse. Judging from the look of Tengxiao, Wu Jiuge was badly injured. Why did Wu Jiuge fight with the King of Corpse? The King of Corpse couldn’t be Yun. Absolutely not…

The Evil Soul in the sea of consciousness smiled evilly. There were so many ghosts drawn by the Heavenly Soul. This school was a bit useful, but the Qiansi Gu must be eliminated as soon as possible in case of no end of trouble for the future.

The twin souls gradually approached each other in chaos, with one being good and the other being evil. The red thread twining the Heavenly Soul was extremely prominent, which was taking in the energy of the Heavenly Soul. While the Heavenly Soul was becoming transparent, the Evil Soul would transfer his power to him. Looking at the sleeping face of the Heavenly Soul, the Evil Soul grew increasingly angry with fury crossing his purple eyes. Since Chiji dared to scheme against them, she had better get prepared to be eradicated. Chiji was only a blood demon. How dare she target at them! She would be doomed…
