Chapter 15: Amusement Park—True Place: Gui Wu
Old fogey, you ruined my big plan!
Ye Chen roared in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
Do you know this is really delaying my power growth?
He continued to roar in his heart.
……
Happy Amusement Park.
Ye Chen reluctantly still followed Ye Nan to the amusement park.
Little Chen, let's play a man's game.
After Ye Nan brought Ye Chen and Lin Ruoxi into the amusement park, he suddenly said to Ye Chen.
What game?
Roller coaster.
After Ye Nan finished, Ye Chen gave him a white eye, saying, "Can I even ride this? I'm not even one meter tall."
After Ye Chen finished, Ye Nan slapped his forehead, "Look at my memory, I forgot you're just a six-year-old brat."
Old fogey, I'm offended by your words.
You better just go ride the carousel; I'll take your mom on the roller coaster.
Old fogey, I feel you're doing this on purpose.
Get rid of that feeling.
After Ye Nan said that, he pulled Lin Ruoxi and Ye Chen toward the roller coaster; as for the carousel, Ye Nan decided to first take Lin Ruoxi on the roller coaster, then take Ye Chen on the carousel.
Meanwhile, Ye Chen down below, bored, watched Ye Nan and Lin Ruoxi ride the carousel.
Ye Nan and Lin Ruoxi were having fun up there, while Ye Chen sat bored down below.
After they got off, Ye Nan added, "Really thrilling."
Lin Ruoxi wanted to go again.
So Ye Nan took Lin Ruoxi for another ride...
After they finished the roller coaster, Ye Nan then took Ye Chen to the carousel, while Ye Nan and Lin Ruoxi sat together.
After the carousel, Ye Nan took Lin Ruoxi around to play; this wasn't bringing a family to the amusement park, this was Ye Nan taking Lin Ruoxi on a vacation.
Ye Nan bought many little items for Lin Ruoxi at the amusement park, but their hands were empty the whole time because everything was carried by Ye Chen.
Old fogey! You two are true love, I'm just an accident?
Ye Chen shouted angrily from behind; Ye Nan heard Ye Chen's words, turned around and said to Ye Chen: "Please drop your doubtful tone, be certain."
Ye Chen: "……"
After playing a while, Ye Nan and Lin Ruoxi felt bored; they liked seeking thrills, so Ye Nan suggested going to the haunted house.
After Ye Nan finished, Ye Chen's voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
Come on, someone who jumps into my mom's arms just watching a ghost movie, and now you want to go to the haunted house—are you trying to jump into my mom's arms on the pretext?
You little brat, how dare you speak like that! Am I that kind of person?
After Ye Nan finished speaking, he looked at Ye Chen; as soon as he turned his head, he saw Ye Chen's utterly certain gaze; though he didn't speak, his eyes seemed to say, "You are exactly that kind of person."
Ye Nan seemed provoked by Ye Chen, he grabbed Ye Chen's ear and said, "Underestimating your old man? Today I'll show you what a real man is!"
Lin Ruoxi stood aside listening to the father-son exchange, chuckling.
Let's go; with Little Chen's guts, the haunted house poses no problem—at least he won't jump into my arms when watching ghost movies.
Upon hearing Lin Ruoxi's words, Ye Nan's head drooped instantly, his expression looking utterly wronged.
Honey, even you're making fun of me.
Lin Ruoxi didn't reply to Ye Nan; instead she took something from Ye Chen's hand and pulled Ye Chen's hand toward the haunted house.
Seeing this, Ye Nan adjusted his mindset and caught up with Ye Chen and Lin Ruoxi.
When the three of them arrived at the haunted house, there were still a few people outside; they waited a moment before it was their turn; after Ye Nan bought the tickets, he led Ye Chen and Lin Ruoxi inside.
Upon entering the haunted house, the dim yellow lights kept flickering, as if there was a poor connection.
Just as Ye Chen was sizing up the haunted house, the system's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
【Ghost Cultivator: an exceedingly strange existence.】
【Ghost Cultivators are practitioners who, through special methods, cultivate using ghosts, yin energy, etc. as a foundation.】
【Ghost Cultivator cultivation methods are often strange; they control souls, absorb yin energy, and can also devour ghostly entities to increase their own strength.】
【Ghost Cultivators have many origins, but most are ghosts that haven't dissipated after death; they are skilled at controlling and using yin energy, and are powerful.】
【And here there is an immensely powerful Ghost Cultivator who holds a banner capable of containing hundreds of millions of souls; wherever that banner appears, myriad souls pay homage; before it, the host is nothing—not even a fart—so it is advised that the host flee immediately!】
After Ye Chen heard the system's words, his brows furrowed tightly, but Ye Nan and Lin Ruoxi didn't notice his abnormality.
Regardless of whether the system's info is wrong, if there truly is a Ghost Cultivator, then this world isn't as simple as I thought.
Ye Chen thought to himself.
Illusion-Breaking Heavenly Eye, open!
As his words fell, a vertical pupil appeared in his brow, golden light swirling within it, divine radiance flowing through.
Keep the heavenly eye open; if there really is any Ghost Cultivator, you can detect it immediately.
The only thing making me uneasy now is the system's mention of a banner that can "contain hundreds of millions of souls"; Ye Chen always feels something is off about it.
Ye Chen lifted his head, while at this moment Ye Nan was extremely curious about everything inside the haunted house.
Wow, honey, look at this hand—so lifelike, look at this model, it's practically identical to the real thing.
As Ye Nan finished speaking, the model suddenly twitched, making a roaring gesture toward him.
Ye Nan was so scared he lost composure, instantly ran to Lin Ruoxi's side and hid behind her, shouting, "Honey, there's a ghost, there's a ghost!"
Ye Chen looked at the model that Ye Nan had just touched, and suddenly felt amused.
"That's just a colloidal model; inside is a little moving mechanism—look how scared you got."
After Ye Chen finished speaking, Ye Nan embarrassingly coughed twice, then stepped out from behind Lin Ruoxi.
"Who, who's scared! I just wanted to see if you were frightened by my expression; how could I possibly be scared by such a tiny model?"
"Dad, there's a ghost behind you! Run!"
After Ye Chen's words fell, Ye Nan tightly frowned and looked around.
"Where, where, wife, save me!"
As Ye Nan said that, he suddenly jumped into Lin Ruoxi's embrace.
Seeing this, Lin Ruoxi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"All right, little Chen, stop scaring your dad."
Hearing Lin Ruoxi's words, Ye Nan instantly jumped down from her embrace and glared at Ye Chen.
"You little brat, daring to scare your dad, you're asking for a beating!"
"Who made you so stubborn?"
Ye Chen retorted.
"All right, all right, stop arguing; let's go inside and look for the pass key."
Lin Ruoxi said from the side.
After Lin Ruoxi finished speaking, Ye Nan then withdrew his hand that was ready to hit Ye Chen.
Afterwards, the three of them walked deeper into Place: Gui Wu.
As they went deeper, Place: Gui Wu became increasingly gloomy.
When they entered the area set up as a mortuary, a chill suddenly swept over, making Ye Nan involuntarily shiver. "By the way, do you guys feel that it's suddenly gotten much colder here?" he muttered, rubbing his arms.
After he finished speaking, he discovered that Lin Ruoxi and Ye Chen had not responded; he felt something odd, suddenly turned around, and only then realized that Lin Ruoxi and Ye Chen were no longer behind him at some point.
At that moment, the corpse model originally fixed on the wall actually moved slightly.
