Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 409: Mo Chou (47)

To be honest, he did not know what to feel about the fact that his fellow ghosts found his departure worthy of rejoicing. But Jiang Li was not thinking of confronting the partying spirits so he ignored the irritation budding in his heart. He did not look back once.

Compared to the plot and the villainess, the ghost army was cute. They were the least of his concern. 

In his estimate, these folks would not be able to stay long in the material world. Even if their leader did something to get them a temporary license to kill, ghost messengers would still come over, no longer tolerating their stay, and would drag them to hell for judgment. At most, these ghosts would only be exempted from being thoroughly destroyed or from being reincarnated as pigs or animals in their next life. 

As for the corpses, obviously, they would stay like that unless a lost hunter from the nearest town or village chance upon this place which was unlikely given its location. The spirits would also do their best to steer possible visitors away.

'It's already a foregone conclusion that no living people will come here in the next few months since all those aware of the massacre won't report it to the police.' 

The people he referred to were only two individuals. Him, and Gu Mochou. But like he said, none of them would say anything to the authorities. Gu Mochou's reason was simple, she was one of the killers. And he? Apart from finding it was okay for a den of devils like that to disappear forever, he didn't think to do so would be worth the hassle giving some of his time to the police. 

'I'm sure one of these days, Gu Mochou will think of personally visiting this place to laugh at the corpses of her enemies.' 

Jiang Li decided it would be okay to let her take a glimpse. But regarding Zhao Ai's matter, or more specifically the deaths and harm done to the fake victims of Fan Zheng's company, there was no way he would let it pass. 

...

...

The return trip this time was much smoother since Jiang Li no longer needed to crack some spells and illusions left by the female ghost king. He immediately hurried back to the town and possessed Lang Lei. A few couples of hours later, he arrived at the apartment unit lent to him by the restaurant owner where he rested for a minute before setting out again.

An hour or so before dawn, Jiang Li was in his spirit form again, assuming a blank, featureless face not only because he felt too lazy to come up with a new look, but because he was in no mood nor with enough leisure to waste time.

He crossed the street and walked through the cars passing by to reach the seemingly sky-high condo building in front. 

However, before he could even get near the elevator, a female ghost appeared. Her neck that was bent in an impossible angle was barely attached to her neck and the lower part of her white dress was soaking in blood. 

It was the female ghost king blocking his way. 

"Hello. It's been a while."

He greeted quite enthusiastically the menacing spirit. But since they were from opposing sides, his greeting was met with a cold reception. In fact, the lights on the corridor and elevator started to flicker, the white glimmer instantly turning red, as bloody red as her dress.

"Go awa.yyyy" Hostility was obvious in the tone of the woman and an air of both evilness and dominance flooded over. But would a scare tactic like that work on another ghost like him?

Jiang Li kept his smile, although, to the other party, his face remained literally blank, without a nose, mouth, brows, and eyes.

With his hands in his pockets, he met her scarily red eyes.

"I have to go up," he replied. 

"De..nied!" The female ghost king added coldly, "Go away Youre not welcomed here.in my territoryyy. Ge..t lost."

"So this area is yours even though I obviously came here first?" He acted like he didn't hear the declaration, he moved forward one step at a time, even started talking like they were close acquaintances.

"Anyway, little girl. Don't be so quick to shoo me away. I also have something to discuss with you."

A weird conversation took place with one stuttering out words of hostility, and the other acting like a normal human out to discuss stuff peacefully. Because the female ghost king did not want to entertain him, she started to move. In an instant, from the entrance of the elevator, she appeared next to him, attempting to choke him using her two hands. Who knew where this girl got the idea that a ghost needs air to breathe.

Jiang Li let the girl grabbed his neck. No harm would be done to him anyways. A moment later, he let the incorporeal body collapsed and then reappeared a few steps away from the other ghost king. 

"For your information, I'm only staying here because there is something I want to clarify with you." He began to speak unhurriedly.

"At our levels, or rather, upon getting promoted to our level will receive one special ability, although there are only so little choices provided. I was guessing yours should be something related to direct murder. Specifically, it should be granting yourself and your cronies with permission to kill even the most innocent amongst human beings."

"Am I correct?"

The lady ghost slowly rolled her eyes to the side. She did not reply, only looking at him quietly. 

There were still laws to be followed if a spirit did not want hell to send envoys to drag them down. Messengers from hell might turn a blind eye if the ones attacked were evildoers or had bad karmas. However, if the person were somebody not like that, the offenders would incur the wrath of heavens and be immediately destroyed by natural laws, forever forbidden to reincarnate.

It would be a different story if a king granted permission. Yet that permission thingy was like a time-limited one-time use item in a game. It was not really a game setting, but it was like a ghost who broke through would have the chance to choose between a permanent skill and a disposable item. How deep would a grudge be for a ghost king to choose such a stupid option which would deprive her of a chance to gain a more useful ability befitting of a king status? 

Jiang Li asked softly, "Are you still with her to chase the village head?"

The ghost's mouth formed an O and some static sounds came out of it. Completely, the lights went out and the terrifying aura of the female ghost king instantly engulfed every inch of the lobby. But that was it. Jiang Li chuckled and then resumed his steps.

"I see." He decided to stop the talk, deeming it enough to confirm some guesses and make up his own mind. 

"Stop."

He remembered that this was also the same words the female ghost always said to people heading towards that village. The only difference was this time, she was warning him not to head over to where Gu Mochou was. Or perhaps, it was to warn him not to go against them. 

Jiang Li replied, "Miss. I don't know exactly what you went through or what's your deal with that reincarnator, but while I have no plans to deal with you, your master is a different matter, okay?"

The other ghost was stunned because she suddenly couldn't move, and she felt like she was trapped, with her ability to switch between gaseous form and semi-solid body disabled. It was of great difficulty that she managed to turn her broken neck to give him a confused look.

The faceless man laughed, "I don't have to concern myself about you since a high-level underworld consul must be coming over already for you. You used your license on the villagers. It's a mistake that you helped that woman kill people commissioned to die on stupid snacks and drinks."

He then bypassed the lady ghost and entered the elevator. When the light went back again, he was already inside Gu Mochou's house.

Gu Mochou was still awake.

Jiang Li was not really surprised to sense the woman moving around in the bedroom since the female ghost king downstairs must have informed this person of his sudden arrival before heading out. So was there an ambush?

Now that he thought about it, the other ghost king was not really nice, no? Not being able to keep her mouth shut even though she looked like someone who could not communicate properly. Otherwise, if it was not to give Gu Mochou some punishment, why would he come here, postponing his rest or visit to Zhan Rong?

If he only had eyes right now, one would see disgust overflowing from it.

After clicking his tongue, the ghost phased through the door. His presence seemed to have been picked up by something beyond it.

"Got ya." A female voice rang. 

When that soft voice echoed in that room, the formations on the door and the walls were already flashing with intimidating red glimmer.

"Hmm?" A bewildered hum came from the ghost whose mere arrival had caused the temperature in the place to drop and made the living creatures to feel so scared and pressured.

Thousands of yellow charms with mysterious writings inscribed on them floated in the air surrounding the stupid ghost king that intruded.

Following that, a loud blast and a small hurricane that reduced the whole room into an indescribable mess.
