The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

”Hahaha...”

”Who do you think you are?”

”So what if you get angry?”

”Little girl, what can you do to us anyway?”

A group of pirates laughed arrogantly.

Hua Jinyan looked at their oblivious faces and silently took a step back.

Ghost Enforcer Uncle rushed forward worriedly and questioned: ”Coward, if you talk like this, you’ll never get a girlfriend. You should be protecting her at the front!”

Uncle Tie was also angry and exclaimed: ”If I had known you were such a wimp, I would have made you run on the track for three years!”

After the two uncles vented their anger, a loud explosion was heard. They both turned to look, and the sight that met their eyes left them with mouths agape, nearly biting their tongues.

”This...”

”This... is too fierce!”

”Tsunami?” Ghost Enforcer Uncle leaned out to look at the sea, speechless: ”It’s a countless number of water ghosts!”

Hua Jinyan spread his hands: ”No need for me to charge over; she’s already handled it all.”

Ghost Enforcer Uncle swallowed hard, still in a daze: ”How did she do it?”

Hua Jinyan: ”We didn’t really board the yacht unprepared. Xiao Lingzhi said there were explosives on board, so I took off Shariputra to attract the water ghosts. Little Taotie subdued them with his fists and gave them a promise.”

Ghost Enforcer Uncle exhaled and asked: ”What promise? It can’t be...”

He had a vague inkling; water ghosts want to reincarnate, which requires finding a substitute ghost.

Typically, water ghosts are mostly hangings, with a small portion drowned. But the drowned are, in fact, the substitute ghosts found by the first group of hangings.

Simply put, the first water ghost was a hanger, who found a drowned person as a substitute ghost; thus, the first hanger had the opportunity to reincarnate, continuing the cycle.

Therefore, the chance to reincarnate is not available to everyone, especially for the hangers; the opportunity is quite scarce, with mindfulness of life being a primary rule.

If one doesn’t value the hard-earned life, it’s hard to get a second chance.

Hua Jinyan chuckled softly: ”Since these pirates have the intent to harm us, then using them as bargaining chips for the water ghosts isn’t such a bad deal, is it?”

”Indeed! You want to make these pirates into substitute ghosts so those water ghosts get a chance to reincarnate!”

Seeing how excited the Ghost Enforcer was, Hua Jinyan put on a stern face: ”What? Not allowed? Or do you intend to stop it?”

Ghost Enforcer Uncle was stumped.

After hesitating, he mumbled: ”It’s getting late, and I still have a ghost to collect. I’ll be busy now; I know nothing of what happens next, nor am I present.”

Hua Jinyan laughed softly: ”Alright, you can leave first.”

Once Ghost Enforcer Uncle hurried away, Uncle Tie curiously inquired: ”Is this a taboo matter?”

Hua Jinyan shrugged: ”One or two water ghosts finding substitute ghosts isn’t that big of a deal, but the issue is too many, which might bring some trouble. Originally, Little Taotie and I intended to have him leave, not wanting to implicate him.”

”For you... might it not be very good?”

”At most, we only give up some chocolate.” Hua Jinyan squinted: ”Anywhere, as long as a corresponding price is given, you can get the answer you want.”

Uncle Tie: ”Does this count as... bribery in the Underworld?”

Hua Jinyan looked at him calmly: ”Just a transaction.”

Uncle Tie met his gaze and instinctively drifted several meters away, sighing: ”I wasn’t afraid of you when I was alive, but now that I’m dead, just looking you in the eye feels unsettling, like I could disappear at any moment?”
