Chapter 150: Ghost Domain Customs (6)
Su Wanqing entered her exclusive pavilion, her delicate brows slightly knitted.
Although the surroundings were silent, her spiritual sense was extremely sharp, and she faintly caught a trace of unsettling fluctuations.
Suddenly, the room temperature quietly dropped, and the surrounding light gradually dimmed, as if a layer of invisible black mist was slowly approaching.
Su Wanqing closed her eyes, took a deep breath, mobilized the Spiritual Qi within her body, and let her mind sink into a state of clarity.
She knew clearly that this was not a normal disturbance of Spiritual Qi, but a corrosive force approaching.
"Ye Youming, you truly are not that simple," she whispered, a faint light glowing at her fingertips, her aura slightly changing.
Suddenly, a low and eerie voice sounded in her ear:
"Heavenly Maiden Su Wanqing, rest assured, here, you can be absolutely at ease… The strange phenomena you feel are merely the ordinary aura of the Ghost Domain.
Sleep peacefully… You are very tired, very tired…"
The voice was dreamlike and illusory, as if it came from all directions, circling her ears like hypnosis.
A strong sense of drowsiness quickly struck; Su Wanqing's eyelids grew heavy, and her consciousness was on the verge of sliding into a dark abyss.
"Oh no!" Her mind jolted, she forcibly gathered her Qi to stay awake, and her hands quickly formed seals:
"Heavenly Mystery Dao, begone, wandering ghosts!"
As the incantation was uttered, several mysterious rays of light broke through the air, and the black mist immediately dissipated like snow meeting fire.
Moonlight shone back into the room, a wisp of pale phantom appeared in the Void Realm, emitted a painful low moan, and finally dissipated without a trace.
Su Wanqing stopped her movements and stood still, her expression as calm as water.
She knew that this was merely a probe from Mingying Hall, and the real killer move had yet to arrive.
She did not panic, but sat cross-legged back on the bed, quietly waiting for the next movement.
However, time passed, and the pavilion remained silent, with only the sound of her own slight breathing.
"Just this?" She raised her eyebrows, a trace of speechlessness appearing in her eyes.
Suddenly, the Void Realm twisted, a figure tore through the air and entered, instantly appearing in the center of the room.
Su Wanqing did not even look, her lips curled up slightly, she raised her fingertip, and two balls of crimson flames were flung out casually:
"Get lost."
The flames roared away, and the person who had just broken in immediately screamed:
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Wanqing, are you trying to murder your husband!"
Su Wanqing was stunned and hurriedly retracted the flames.
Looking closely—it was actually Lin Fan.
At this moment, Lin Fan's face was blackened by the flames, his hair was standing on end, and he looked extremely disheveled.
"Why is it you?" She asked with a hint of apology.
Seeing his miserable appearance, Su Wanqing couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You still dare to laugh?" Lin Fan glared at her, then suddenly leaned in and fiercely pushed her down onto the bed.
"You are not allowed to laugh."
He didn't care about the black ash on his hands and raised his hand to pat her twice on the back of her skirt.
With two crisp "slap, slap" sounds, two black palm prints were immediately imprinted on the skirt.
The originally snow-white, long dress was now strikingly marked by these two symmetrical black handprints, as if they were some kind of "trophy" mark.
Su Wanqing gasped in surprise, her cheeks instantly flushing with two clouds of red, and she was so shy that even the tips of her ears turned pink.
"You—how can you be like this!"
She struggled to get up, but was pinned down by Lin Fan and could not move.
Lin Fan, however, just looked at her shy, angry, and delicate appearance, the corners of his mouth unable to stop curling up slightly.
He had just been burned by her flames, but the atmosphere at this moment made him feel incredibly warm.
"Are you not going to let me up yet?" Su Wanqing glared at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan, however, smiled sneakily and restlessly patted her behind lightly two more times.
"You—" Her cheeks flushed with shame, she struggled to climb off the bed, and while straightening her skirt, she glared at him angrily.
But seeing Lin Fan's soot-covered face, Su Wanqing eventually couldn't help but let the corners of her mouth quietly lift.
"Where on earth did you pop out from? That scene just now scared me half to death."
"If I had been a step late, you might have really been in trouble," Lin Fan straightened his back, trying to regain some dignity. "The spatial fluctuations of this pavilion have already been stabilized by me, rest assured."
"So it was you who messed with it… No wonder it has been so quiet all day today." Su Wanqing nodded, unable to help but admire him in her heart.
"Then what did you come here for?" She suddenly blinked, moved a step closer, and stared intently at Lin Fan, as if wanting to see through his little thoughts.
Lin Fan was stunned by her gaze and said sheepishly, "I… I was just worried about you, and came to check on the situation."
"Is it really just to 'check on'?" Su Wanqing dragged out her tone and asked meaningfully.
"Of course it's true! Why would I lie to you…" Lin Fan waved his hands repeatedly, his expression ostensibly open and honest, but actually, he was a bit panicked inside.
"Fine, I'll barely believe you." Su Wanqing pretended to be impatient and curled her lips, waving her hand at the bed sheet. "But your current getup… can you stop fumigating me?"
Lin Fan looked down and saw that he was covered in black ash, which was really inappropriate. He gritted his teeth, took off his outer robe on the spot, and with a jolt of Spiritual Qi, swept away the dust on his body.
"Whew—good as new." He tossed his hair triumphantly, took a set of clean clothes from his Storage Pouch, and started changing.
Su Wanqing hurriedly turned her head away, the roots of her ears slightly red, murmuring in a low voice, "You… are you always this flamboyant even when changing clothes?"
Lin Fan quickly put on his clothes and smiled confidently, "Alright, you can look now. It's not like you haven't seen it before, why are you still shy?"
Su Wanqing quietly turned back, and seeing him changed back into that white outfit, she immediately curled her lips, "Why is it this set again? The exact same style, how boring."
"I can't help it, it was all prepared for me by Bai Youyou, there's only this kind." Lin Fan spread his hands, very helpless. "If you know how to make them, why not design a set for me?"
"Of course I dare to make it, but do you dare to wear it?" Su Wanqing raised her eyebrows and smiled, her tone quite provocative.
"What is there not to dare to wear?"
The two went back and forth, teasing each other constantly, and the atmosphere became increasingly relaxed.
But Su Wanqing immediately straightened her face and said seriously, "Alright, you've seen me, we've talked, and I'm fine, shouldn't you be going back?"
Lin Fan shook his head, "No, I'm not at ease. Ye Youming is very cunning; what if she uses another underhanded trick?"
Hearing this, Su Wanqing was slightly stunned, and her heart warmed inexplicably.
She turned her head, a trace of a smile on her lips, "Not at ease about me? Then what about those beautiful Senior Sisters and Junior Sisters of yours, you seem quite at ease about them? Aren't you afraid their primordial yin will be drained?"
Lin Fan chuckled, "They are all fine. Lin Chen has a battle armor, and it's bound to my phone. If there's any movement, I'll know immediately."
"Battle armor? Phone?" Confusion appeared in Su Wanqing's eyes.
"Hmm, battle armor is pretty much like armor; as for the phone, it's this little gadget in my hand." Lin Fan casually handed the phone to her.
Su Wanqing took the phone and looked at it curiously as if holding a treasure, turning it over from time to time, her eyes sparkling.
"Eh? There is a 'Strategic Supplies Transmission' here?" She couldn't help but click into it.
Lin Fan was about to speak, but the screen popped up a prompt:
[Operation Center not configured, space wormhole generator missing, delivery cannot be performed. Configure immediately?]
"Of course configure it." Su Wanqing almost didn't hesitate and clicked directly with her finger.
As a result—
[System starting upgrade, suspending all services…]
The phone instantly went black.
Lin Fan: "…"
Su Wanqing blinked her eyes, "Did I click the wrong thing?"
Lin Fan looked helpless, "You just completely 'shut down' my entire System."
