The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Lu Yuan’s gaze darkened a little. ”That’s hard to say. Maybe it’s just that our people love traveling too much.”

”This has something to do with traveling?” Little Taotie puffed out her cheeks. ”Little Jinzi also likes to travel, and people from lots of countries like traveling too...”

”Sure, people from many countries like traveling, but the ones who love going everywhere, especially into remote mountain ravines, are probably just our people.” Uncle Tie grumbled impatiently, ”They don’t like going to places with good public security; they just love going to those with safety issues.”

Little Taotie started to catch on.

It was just like the village Sister Xiangxiang had ’attacked’—the people there were basically lawless.

Thinking about it, the two things did feel a bit similar.

One involved swapping heads, the other swapping internal organs...

And the ones taken away were all travel lovers...

A conflicted little expression appeared on Little Taotie’s small face.

Ghost Enforcer Uncle asked curiously, ”What are you afraid of?”

Other people not being afraid of you is already pretty good; you actually still get scared?

Of course, Ghost Enforcer Uncle didn’t dare say that out loud, but his eyes gave him away.

Little Taotie was now a little girl who could read people’s expressions and understand the look in their eyes—she wasn’t that silly kid she used to be. Or so she thought.

Little Taotie glared at Ghost Enforcer Uncle angrily. ”I’m worried about Xiao Lingzhi. Xiao Lingzhi loves going to those sparsely populated places. She keeps saying she wants to go to uninhabited areas to watch the stars, that the stars there haven’t been lit up by city lights, so they’re the most beautiful and dazzling.”

”Who’s Xiao Lingzhi?”

”You don’t know her, Uncle. She’s my good friend, my bestie.”

”Bestie?” Ghost Enforcer Uncle shook his head. ”I really don’t know her. Introduce us next time?”

”She can’t see you anyway.”

”You can give her some eyedrops and let us get to know each other.”

”No way, that would scare Xiao Lingzhi.”

”Come on, seriously? You keep calling her your good friend, your bestie, and you’re actually hiding things from her! She can’t not know about your special ability, right?”

Little Taotie pressed her lips together. ”She knows a little, but I didn’t say much. I’m afraid of scaring her...”

”Good friends shouldn’t have little secrets,” Ghost Enforcer Uncle said with a squinty-eyed smile.

Uncle Tie couldn’t listen anymore. He roared at Ghost Enforcer Uncle, ”What do you know! Shut up. You’re not even a living person, so stop meddling in the affairs of the living!”

Ghost Enforcer Uncle was startled.

But since the other party was the Ghost King and was also a bit formidable, Ghost Enforcer Uncle only hummed, ”You’re not a living person anymore either, are you?”

Uncle Tie: ”...”

Little Taotie sighed. ”I’m still not going to tell Xiao Lingzhi. Xiao Lingzhi loves adventure so much, if she grabbed me and dragged me everywhere to see ghosts, we’d be done for.”

Ghost Enforcer Uncle’s mouth twitched. As expected, a weird kid’s friends are weird too!

”Weren’t you afraid she’d be scared?”

”She might be scared at first, but once she calms down, she’ll definitely drag me off on adventures, to see if a hanged ghost’s tongue really stretches long, and to see if a Water Ghost has their hair all loose and messy...”

Hua Jinyan’s mouth twitched.

Looked like she really did understand her friend.

This really was the kind of thing Xiao Lingzhi would do.

...

With Uncle Tie leading the way, Lu Yuan sent a message back, and they dispatched quite a few more people over. A big ship sailed across the sea; Little Taotie stood on the deck, Hua Jinyan standing right behind her, watching her nervously, afraid she’d get excited and fall overboard.

Ghost Enforcer Uncle popped a piece of chocolate into his mouth and said with a grin, ”Relax, she can swim.”
