Chapter 1458: You Really Don’t Understand Love
With the soul pearl and talismans, Ning Shu felt a tiny more secure.
However, she couldn’t help but wonder how exactly ungodly beautiful this phantom king was? He had actually managed to captivate so many task-takers and made them willing to start a tragic cross-species romance.
After doing these things, Ning Shu said, “Let’s start the task.”
“Ok.” 2333 said to Ning Shu, “No matter what, don’t fall in love with the phantom king. If you fall in love with the phantom king, you’ll immediately fail in this task. Tao Qin hates this the most.”
Ning Shu: Damned girl...
Fahai, you really don’t understand love.
Ning Shu felt a moment of dizziness, then she felt her soul enter a body. She waited until her soul completely adjusted to the body.
When she opened her eyes and looked around, she saw that she was lying on a brick bed. The room was very simple with a hint of antique taste.
She sat up on the bed and crossed her legs, wanting to check the spiritual energy density in this world. However, she ended up a bit disappointed. Like normal modern planes, there was very little spiritual energy.
Fortunately, with the support of the Unsurpassable Martial Arts, she was still able to form a bit of energy about the size of a strand of hair. It looked quite pitiful.
Ning Shu stopped cultivating and started receiving the storyline.
This was a ‘the tyrant phantom king fell in love with me’ type of story. The female lead, Song Xihan, was a white-collar employee at a company. She casually purchased a jade on an antique street and afterwards, started experiencing a series of strange things.
A male ghost in red appeared and was always by her side. He went with her to work and helped her get revenge on her higher up who was making things hard for her.
When bathing, a handsome man would suddenly appear in the bathtub. The moment she woke up in the morning and opened her eyes, she would see an unbelievably handsome face right in front of her.
Song Xihan was teased to the point her entire face was red and her heart stirred with feelings. She endured the phantom king Feng Yin doing all sorts of shameless things to her.
If it weren’t for his handsome face, she probably would have called the police ages ago.
There was also a reason why Feng Yin treated Song Xihan so well. This was related to their past incarnation. Last last last, well, some past lifetime, Feng Yin and Song Xihan were an affectionate couple with a tragic fate. In any case, their love would last even when heaven fell and earth rend, even when the seas went dry and the stones crumbled.
However, due to some reason, the female lead died that life and Feng Yin sacrificed himself in the name of love and ended up becoming a powerful phantom king. After a thousand years, the female lead was reincarnated, but as a human.
Since he had finally found the female lead again, he was going to continue this predestined love.
So when Tao Qin, this idiot, ran over to stop their touching romance, she got killed by Feng Yin and even implicated her master and fellow disciples.
So it was needless to explain how guilty Tao Qin, this senior sister, felt.
After Ning Shu finished receiving the plot, she sighed. Tao Qin didn’t blame the phantom king for killing her. After all, she did understand that she was killed because she was weak.
What she couldn’t accept was that even though the people of her sect never hurt the phantom king and Song Xihan, the phantom king also killed the entire sect and destroyed everyone’s souls.
Ning Shu continued practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. If she was powerful, she wouldn’t be killed as easily.
“Senior Sister, time to eat. If you’re late, there won’t be any food left.” The duck-like squawk of a boy’s pubertal voice came from outside.
Ning Shu stopped practicing and opened the door to find a boy taller than her standing there while eating a steamed bun.
Ning Shu hurriedly went to get food. If she was late, these kids really might finish everything.
They were currently in a deserted Daoist temple. Well, it couldn’t be quite said to be deserted, but no pilgrims came here to offer incense. There was only Tao Qin’s master here teaching a group of homeless children the art of Mt. Mao.
Life was quite hard.
When Ning Shu arrived at the kitchen, she saw a group of little radish heads around the table. They were of varying ages. Most of them were boys, but there were also two little girls with pigtails and missing front teeth.
The most striking person was still the person sitting at the head of the table. This dirty old man who had his chest exposed, had a long beard, and had his hair tied up in a bun, was currently burping and picking at his teeth with his legs crossed.
When Ning Shu saw the old man, she felt a sourness in her heart.
