Chapter 76 - Ghost Eyes

Translator: Yuzu

As soon as Xiao Chen arrived at the school entrance, he couldn’t help but knit his brows. His eyes glanced around a few times, observing the surrounding environment.

Strange, there are more ghosts in the school today.

The most obvious point is that you can feel a puff of darkness once you enter the school gate. Ordinary people may only feel the temperature on campus is very low, but Xiao Chen was able to see through the ghosts walking around the campus like zombies.

In fact, in general, as long as it is a school, the Yin energy will be significantly heavier than in other places. This is because schools are generally built on sites such as crematoriums and areas where corpses have been buried. After all, they are cheaper. This is also the reason why Xiao Chen did not want to stay in a dormitory.

But today’s ghosts are more than usual and a bit more abnormal.

The second Xiao Chen’s feet just stepped into the campus, he could feel the ghosts start to get a little restless. Their eyes were all locked onto his body for a while and then began to wander around him, their noses constantly sniffing his scent.

One by one, they uncontrollably rushed up to him, but all would be bounced out by what appeared to be a barrier when they were only three meters away. Some were burned, some were electrocuted, and some even had their souls corrupted.

One after another, no ghosts dared to get too close to Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen is not surprised.

His Yin energy is very heavy and is a good tonic for ghosts. However, ordinary ghosts can’t harm people. Only cultivated and even resentful ghosts can pose harm to people, but there are usually very few of these ghosts.

Xiao Chen’s expression was a little cold when he thought about it.

He grew up living in fear of being tormented by ghosts. Those who found out he had ghost eyes would use it to scare and intimidate him. His special ability caused all the people around him to think he was mentally ill, and even his biological parents abandoned him.

Because he was good-looking, all those who wanted to adopt could see him at first glance, but the result was invariably the same. He was returned to the orphanage, again and again, experiencing countless hopes, all of which were reduced to deeper despair.

He called for help at first. He was afraid, but later, he became indifferent, numb, and even closed himself completely.

Until that day………

Until he met that man.

The corners of Xiao Chen’s mouth twitched slightly when he thought of this.

He met his light.

Then the light brightened his dim eyes.

“You look so delicious.” The woman with a big belly was drooling, and her face was fierce as she circled around Xiao Chen, whose hands were clenched in fists. His face was indifferent as he continued to walk forward as if he didn’t know that a ghost had followed him the whole way.

The woman, however, blocked Xiao Chen’s path and floated right in front of him.

Xiao Chen’s footsteps paused, barely pretending not to be aware of the woman’s body, before moving forward.

The woman looked like she had discovered something and gave a surprised look.

Xiao Chen’s pace quickened. the woman rushed close to Xiao Chen’s ear with a playful smile, “Little friend, you can see me, can’t you?”

Xiao Chen did not say anything and continued to walk forward.

The woman did not let him go, but instead, her body pressed closer to Xiao Chen, “In this orphanage, you are the best-looking. Sister really wants to eat you.”

The woman’s saliva flowed out. The face that was a few points whiter than the wall was cut by a knife and had countless blood marks. Her skin was open, her face was hideous, and she was very fat and looked flabby.

She spoke in a whispery voice. Her body kept leaning closer to Xiao Chen, and she even called herself sister.

Xiao Chen’s cold sweat emerged as he braced himself not to show a disgusted look.

But Xiao Chen’s micro-expressions still betrayed him. The woman’s already horrified face became even more pronounced with bloodstains, and her eyes bulged outward with an enraged look.

“Even you look down on me.” The woman gritted her teeth, and her voice was so loud that it could almost pierce one’s eardrums. She stretched out her hand, trying to grab Xiao Chen.

The woman’s fingernails were long. Her nail caps were black, and her nail crevices were filthy with dirt.

Xiao Chen initially thought the woman would not touch him, but the next second, the woman grabbed Xiao Chen’s wrist with a violent force, making Xiao Chen fall to the ground.

Xiao Chen can even hear the sound of his bones breaking, and his expression was one of disbelief.

The woman was also stunned. It seems that she did not expect to be able to grab the child.

In the next second, the woman’s expression can be described as insane. Her gaze fell dead on Xiao Chen’s body, and she pulled open her big mouth, which looked gut-wrenching. She looked at Xiao Chen as if she was looking at a delicious delicacy.

Xiao Chen lying on the ground in fear, helplessly opened his mouth.

Suddenly, his eyes flickered slightly as if he thought of something. He drew two red candles from his pocket with his last strength, breaking it as he mumbled something. His hands trembled uncontrollably because of fear, as if he was a dying criminal making his final struggle.

The woman looked at the boy in front of her with a mocking face as he did a series of useless things. She tilted her head and let out a laugh that sounded like it was going to rip through her throat.

Then, with one hand, she grabbed Xiao Chen’s neck and lifted him from the ground.

The two red candles in Xiao Chen’s hand also fell to the ground.

Xiao Chen’s face was getting red as his throat was strangled, and his legs were also completely off the ground.

“pong,” there was a loud bang.

The woman’s hand that was locked around Xiao Chen’s neck lurched. The bloody mouth that had been opened to the maximum was frozen in the air. Even the scarlet tongue had forgotten to move. The woman’s hands softened and ultimately released Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen lost his strength and nearly fainted as he fell backward, but a pair of hands that were incomparably faster wrapped around his waist from behind him and then held him in his arms.

The woman looked like she was being cut by a thousand knives. The blood marks on her entire face were infinitely enlarged, and her whole ghostly body was fading away. The next second, she completely turned into a puddle of blood in place with only the shrill hissing sound piercing the sky, which was creepy.

Xiao Chen did not see the frightening scene because his eyes were attracted by the man holding himself. He was in awe and even forgot the pain of his broken bones.

The man was dressed in red with his loose black hair hanging down on both sides, slightly blown up by the wind, and his eyes were very light gray.

The man’s hands held Xiao Chen in his arms. He lowered his eyes and looked at the young child in his embrace.

There is no telling what kind of magic was used as the man’s fingers moved slightly, causing the red candle that was originally thrown on the ground to fly up by itself and then fell directly into the man’s hand.

Jing Hezhi stared at the child’s pair of phoenix eyes that have not yet developed and froze. It was like there was some kind of magic in these eyes that pacified the mountains and rivers. A single glance made him fall instantly.

The man’s five fingers gently stroked the wounds on the child’s back, silently healing them. His previously cold eyes violently flared the moment when they touched.

The child’s bones are broken!

The man’s face sank, and he forced himself to hold back his raging anger. The air pressure dropped even lower.

His hands moved more carefully, afraid of hurting the porcelain doll in his arms.

Xiao Chen, however, took the initiative to break the peaceful tranquility between the two, asking out, “Are you a god?”

Otherwise, how can he be so good-looking?

The man smiled at the words, and the gloomy expression cracked as the corner of his mouth lifted. The red candles were also grasped in the man’s hand.

Xiao Chen only saw the beauty in front of him move his lips.

He said, “No, I’m your future husband.”

Xiao Chen returned from his memories, and the corners of his mouth hooked upwards slightly at some point.

“Look, someone on the rooftop is going to jump eh.”

“Damn, it’s true. Quickly take a picture with your phone.”

“Shit, it’s sick, jumping off a building in school.”

…………

Xiao Chen smiled and lifted his head slightly.

As expected, a figure was sitting on the edge of the rooftop, staring blankly at the scenery downstairs.

Many students have gathered under the building. Some took out their phones to take videos, photos, and others directly launched a live broadcast. Only a few rushed into the building with the intention of calling teachers to deal with the situation, and a few students have already started to call the police.

“Oh my gosh, that man seems to be my professor!” A student recognized the man and covered his mouth with a horrified expression.

The next second, the crowd let out a shattering chatter as more and more people recognized who he was.

“What’s going on, what’s going on? Professor Li is crazy. Why does he suddenly want to jump off the building?”

But at this time, no one could give the crowd an answer.

Xiao Chen’s mouth twitched.

There was more than one person there.

The man’s eyes were lifeless, and his legs were hanging in the air. His back was slumped, and his neck fell to one side, barely maintaining his body’s balance in a distorted position.

A little girl in a white dress was standing behind him. One of her hands was clutching the man’s collar as she looked down at the crowd of people watching from below. Her expression was numb throughout.

It took only one glance for Xiao Chen to recognize the girl.

It was the little girl from yesterday.

The strange thing is that yesterday, her face clearly recovered to normal, but today, the blood marks on her face were even more than before. And the Yin energy emanating from her body was denser than before. It was so dense that it had utterly affected the weather and made the surrounding lonely souls and spirits continuously attracted and gradually come.

Just how much resentment does it take to reach this level?

Xiao Chen frowned.

Every injustice has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. This saying is true.

Generally, ghosts will lose their memories after death, and even those with deep resentment are no exception. However, these resentful ghosts will give themselves an extremely strong psychological implication before they die. As long as they can meet their enemies again after they die, they will be desperate for revenge.

More and more people gathered downstairs, and a security guard rushed out to maintain order.

The man whose eyes were cloudy and godless finally sobered up. He was startled and then opened his mouth wide. It was like the frightening feeling of a sleepwalker who walks to the edge of a rooftop while dreaming and then suddenly wakes up with a jolt.

The man’s arms and legs were shaking as if he didn’t know why he was here.

He subconsciously wanted to get down from above.

It was at this moment that he suddenly realized that something was grabbing his collar.

He looked back, and a bloody face stared at him coldly. He instantly shuddered, his feet sagged, and he almost fell, but the girl kept hold of his collar, so he was able to retain his balance.

The man looked at the dense crowd downstairs and wanted to open his mouth to call for help, but he suddenly found himself unable to open his mouth, and he could only make an uh-uh sound.

The students downstairs noticed the man moving and mistakenly thought he was going to jump. For a moment, all of them raised their phones in unison as if to record the moment.

The girl watched the scene downstairs and let out an unpleasant and frightening laugh.

She grabbed the man’s head, forcing the other side to look at her. Her voice was cold and piercing, with an unconcealed anger, “Are you familiar with this scene in front of you?”

The man was trembling like a sieve as he looked at the skin-open face. He moved to shrink his head with some resistance and let out the sound of whimpering.

The girl looked downstairs as if everything had gone back to the past.

“Teacher, don’t you remember me? I’m Lulu ah.”

The man’s eyes widened when he heard this.

I am Lulu ah, the little girl you r*ped.

Have you forgotten?
