Chapter 37: Luo Sheng’s Playboy Quotes

“My lord, how do you plan to open this large door?”

Bai Moxue stopped teasing him and turned to look at the metal door, getting back to the main topic, “This door can only be opened with a key, or we’d have to wait until the heavenly dog eats the sun, when the dark iron door is at its weakest, only then could it be unlocked by external force.”

“Cheating method.”

Luo Sheng revealed a confident smile, holding a white card 【Open Door】 between his fingertips, displaying it before her eyes.

Then, under Bai Moxue’s puzzled gaze, he activated the card, and with a rumbling sound… the large door of the small warehouse automatically opened.

“How did you do that?”

She showed a surprised expression on her face, this was completely beyond her expectations.

After all, this was the King of Hell’s territory, and the material used for the metal door was not ordinary iron, but netherworldly dark iron.

Not only was it extremely hard, but it could also resist most spells used by demons and monsters.

The same applied to cultivators, it was difficult to damage unless one’s level surpassed that of the King of Hell.

Therefore, the treasure inside hadn’t been looted by ghosts and monsters, remaining intact until now.

Now, what the Ghost King and other ghost forces’ leaders couldn’t accomplish was easily solved by Luo Sheng.

“Alright, don’t be surprised, let’s go and take the treasures first.”

“Mm-hmm.”

Inside the warehouse, most items were divine weapons specifically for dealing with demons and monsters.

Besides shackles and torture instruments, there were also Taoist magical treasures, spell tokens, name registers, and the most mysterious netherworld Taoist secret techniques.

Bai Moxue put everything into her own pocket. She was now a ghost with cultivation, so the art of storing things in a pocket dimension was not difficult for her. However, the space was limited, so she could only take away half of the things inside.

The remaining items that couldn’t be taken were destroyed by Luo Sheng through various means.

After all, they couldn’t leave them for the demons and monsters outside. If the forces of the netherworld grew stronger, life in the mortal world would become even more difficult.

After finishing all this, the two people returned by the same route, then tied Soldier A and Soldier B to the motorcycle, stepped on the accelerator, and roared away towards the distance.

About 3 hours later.

A ghost soldier hurriedly ran to the tent of the Golden King, even tripping and falling, and said in a panic: “B-b-big trouble!”

“What trouble?”

A middle-aged fat man with a black goatee beard and fierce eyes asked imposingly.

The ghost soldier knelt on the ground and finally told the whole story. It turned out that while they were patrolling, they discovered someone had sneaked into the Yama Ghost Temple.

So they suppressed their fear of the Yama Ghost Temple and went inside to investigate.

They found that the statue had been moved, and further into the tunnel, the metal door of the small warehouse had also been opened. The treasures inside had been completely looted, and everything else had been utterly destroyed.

“What!”

The Golden King was stunned.

He immediately led his troops to the Yama Ghost Temple, and saw that it was just as the ghost soldier had said, someone had secretly visited.

Being able to open the door of the treasury was simply unbelievable.

The Golden King was stunned for a while, “This is impossible! No one can open this door unless they have the King of Hell’s key!”

Even he couldn’t open this door, and the Ghost King absolutely didn’t believe anyone could open it by external force.

Other forces also rushed over, and then showed the same expression as the Golden King, speechless for a long time.

Some even mistakenly thought that the King of Hell’s people had returned.

But there was no trace of the King of Hell’s aura here.

Finally, they looked towards the Golden King.

Soon a dispute broke out, many people felt that since the Golden King was the first to arrive here, they suspected that he possessed the King of Hell’s key.

They thought he planned to keep all the treasures for himself, deliberately creating the incident of the Yama Ghost Temple being robbed to clear his name.

The Golden King of course denied this, and with his hot temper, both sides started arguing again.

After that, both sides had a big fight, battling fiercely.

In the end, everyone was severely wounded and had to stop, returning to their mansions to recover.

……

Meanwhile.

Back at the inn, Luo Sheng and Bai Moxue began dividing the loot.

Soul-shaking bell, Tai Yin talisman, demon-binding rope, and other such treasures.

Of course, the most important was the Heaven Purifying Divine Incantation, a secret technique that could be cultivated by both humans and ghosts.

“I didn’t expect such a big harvest this time. I can imagine how furious the old ghost Jin will be when he discovers that the treasures he was about to get have been stolen by us,” Bai Moxue said with a smile.

However, she didn’t touch the items on the table, as these were all obtained by Luo Sheng, so she felt they should belong to Luo Sheng.

“These are all yours, you should keep them,” he pushed all the treasures back to her.

“You don’t want them?”

Bai Moxue was stunned.

Each of these items was priceless, and if put outside, countless ghost kings would fight to the death for them.

He’s just giving them to her like this?

How big-hearted is this husband of hers?

Bai Moxue was confused but also somewhat moved.

Luo Sheng could resist the temptation and give her the best, but she still asked in confusion, “Aren’t you afraid that after your wife becomes stronger, she’ll leave you?”

“These were originally your betrothal gifts.” Luo Sheng put on a righteous face, then smiled again, looking into her eyes, “Besides, I don’t think you’ll leave me, because I trust you, just like that night when you trusted me. You can say I’m blinded by beauty or deeply infatuated, anyway, you won’t be able to escape for this lifetime.”

Bai Moxue’s face instantly turned red, a blush spreading to her ears.

Finally, she covered her delicate face with both hands, “Eww~ you’re so mushy, aren’t you embarrassed? Is this how you used to sweet-talk girls?”

Luo Sheng shook his head and joked, “If I could sweet-talk girls like this, I would have had a harem long ago, and wouldn’t have married a ghost and become an undead knight.”

“So you’re saying you regret marrying me?”

Bai Moxue said coquettishly, pretending to blame him.

“How could that be? I couldn’t be happier. If I posted this on a forum and wrote an otherworld guide, I bet a lot of people would be jealous.”

“Forum? Otherworld guide?”

“Ahem, ahem, it’s a strange thing, nevermind, maybe you’ll see it someday in the future.” Luo Sheng coughed drily, glossing over it.

He immediately changed the subject: “Take these things quickly, don’t you want to get revenge?”

“Well… alright.”

Before taking them, Bai Moxue condensed a drop of bright red essence blood into a crystal and handed it to Luo Sheng.

She said, “This is my most important soul essence and blood. If you crush it, my soul will scatter. Keep it safe.”

“What are you…?”

Luo Sheng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. You’re already my card, why would I need your soul essence and blood?

His earlier playboy quotes were because he had a guarantee, otherwise how could he say such things? The monk might run away, but could the temple run too?

Anyway, with the card in hand, he would always have a way to find her.

Luo Sheng immediately pushed it back, saying solemnly, “I don’t need this. If you still consider me as your fiance, then keep it. Don’t take it out in the future either. Please cherish yourself, okay?”

“You…”

Bai Moxue didn’t know what to say. Are there really such foolish people in this world?

Gradually, her eyes misted over, bright red tears kept falling, impossible to wipe away, constantly sliding down her cheeks, and her delicate nose had also turned red.

Why am I crying?

Then she cried like a pear blossom in the rain, like a wronged little girl who had finally been comforted, shedding all her grievances and pretenses.
