Chapter 1921: Living with Mr. Ghost: Miscellaneous Affairs 37

Xia Tan recovered in the deep night not long after.

At that time the night was still, the contending parts of soul finally merged, all lingering yin qi that refused to dissipate vanished, and resentment vanished as well.

It was more comfortable being human.

In a daze, Xia Tan just had this thought, then recalled everything from his past life and couldn't help falling silent.

After a long while, Xia Tan slowly lifted his gaze, looked at Jin Chen's sleeping profile, raised his hand to trace his deep brows and eyes, and his faintly trembling fingertips looked somewhat sickly.

The sense of disjunction that had appeared before now completely let Xia Tan separate the lover before him from the evil ghost that had strangled him in his past life.

Jin Chen has never killed me.

Xia Tan thought, the corner of his mouth twitched up quickly, he buried his face in Jin Chen's chest, letting the lingering sandalwood scent envelop him, and in the darkness the depths of his starry eyes showed a deeper, richer possessiveness and longing.

"Jin Chen..."

Xia Tan murmured incoherently, his fingertips, now warm, unconsciously pressed against Jin Chen's lips, and he softly called out several times with deep longing.

Jin Chen vaguely heard the movement and held the person in his arms a little tighter.

Xia Tan stayed quiet for a few seconds, then leaned over and licked his lips.

This period's commotion made him think Xia Tan was about to cause trouble again; the hand hidden under the blanket accurately smacked Xia Tan's buttocks, his chin rubbing the top of his head, half-asleep he warned, "Don't move recklessly."

Xia Tan: "..."

Xia Tan's buttocks burned from the strike.

His eyes reddened with anger, he resolved to retaliate, lifted his foot to press on Jin Chen's calf, and in the next second was firmly caught between Jin Chen's legs.

Thus, Xia Tan was completely trapped in Jin Chen's embrace, unable to escape.

Jin Chen truly wasn't awake; his hoarse voice was plainly sexy, accurately transmitted to Xia Tan's ears: "If you want to kill me, wait until tomorrow, behave."

"Kill you."

This sentence is what the resentful spirit Xia Tan often mutters; even if he cannot act on it, the slightest lack of restraint will have the lustful Ghost King press him down on the bed and torment him thoroughly.

Such a confining embrace is somewhat breathless, every breath filled with the other's scent, clearly not very comfortable.

Yet Xia Tan especially likes this posture, inseparable, making his body, already dependent on Jin Chen, feel very safe.

"I won't kill you."

Xia Tan whispered in an even lower voice, tilted his head to rub against Jin Chen's lips, "I love you."

So soft a voice that even Xia Tan could barely hear it, let alone the sleeping Jin Chen.

But it doesn't matter; he can still say it to Jin Chen tomorrow.

Xia Tan lingered, curling into his embrace, letting sleepiness wash over again, and drifted off in a daze.

【Detected the villainous resentful spirit has disappeared, recalculating Blackening Value……Current Blackening Value: 10!】

【Detected Villain Heartthrob Value +5, total now 90!】

Jin Chen had just woken when the system bombarded him with notifications.

Then his attention was drawn by a phone buzzing nonstop.

Jin Chen shifted his posture to hold Xia Tan, knowing his little bee had regained human consciousness, and even his pretty face had recovered.

He lowered his head and gave a kiss.

Xia Tan seemed to sense it, his hot face burrowing straight into Jin Chen's embrace, not waking up but looking exhausted, desperately needing sleep to make up for the soul fatigue of this period.

Jin Chen curled his lip, didn't disturb him further, and his long arm snatched the buzzing phone.

It was the still-lively fierce-ghost group chat after absorbing the peeping ghost.

Lustful Hungry Ghost: @Invincible Ghost King Great King! Hurry hurry hurry! Please appear quickly (sobbing)

During this time, worried about Xia Tan's safety, Jin Chen of the No Water Group saw this message and fell silent for two seconds.

【Hehehe! I gave you this name, isn't it super invincibly cool!】

Ling Gun Gun twisted on the bedside, glowing like a mutant seven-colored slime.

Jin Chen's eye twitched; he thought he should mention to Bai Ze when to bring the Zero Egg to upgrade its aesthetic sense.

But thinking this creature was his chosen divine pet, Jin Chen headache-inducingly continued to stare at the screen.

Invincible Ghost King:?

Just one message made the six little ghosts explode.

Hanged Ghost: Great King, you've finally appeared!

Lustful Hungry Ghost: Great King! Please help us save a human!

Stuffed Ghost (Ghost Realm Rich Second Generation): Great King! Saving a life trumps seven hundred years of good deeds!

Invincible Ghost King: Get to the point.

These ghosts are still this noisy.

I am the Hungry Ghost: The situation is as follows……

Since learning that the Great King kept a handsome human, the six little ghosts, feeling like junior brothers, imitated him and raised a human youth together.

Called raising, it's actually more like being friends.

This youth was born with Yin-Yang Eyes, developed a sensitive, introverted nature, and was bullied relentlessly at school.

The previous two days, the six ghosts jointly attended a nearby fierce-ghost gathering; one lapse in supervision, and the youth was actually knocked unconscious by a fierce ghost from the academy.

Now they were furious, relying on the ghost power granted by Ghost King Jin Chen, they blasted that fierce ghost into ashes, yet had no idea how to save the person.

After thinking it over, they could only jointly ask the Great King to intervene.

After all, the six little ghosts had helped him quite a bit before.

And after learning the full story, Jin Chen pondered a moment, then had the six ghosts bring that human youth over.

Jin Chen quietly rose from the bed, kissed Xia Tan's trembling eyelids, and whispered, "Be good, keep sleeping, I'm right here at home."

Not sure if he heard it, but the struggling Xia Tan, who was about to wake, fell back into deep sleep, and an extra pillow of Jin Chen appeared in his arms.

The living room on the side of the flat.

Jin Chen let them in, looked up and saw the six ghosts, all cleaned up to look like human-ghost hybrids, and was a little surprised.

"Now even the ghost realm is competing over ghostly looks?"

The lustful ghost fawningly patted his clothes and said, "Great King, aren't we now very much like how we were before we died! It was all Xiao Ming's idea!"

Xiao Ming is the boy they lifted up.

The drowned ghost also happily picked up the swimming-ring costume, which could perfectly catch its drip-drip water, so he no longer had to worry about the Great King despising his messiness!

The peeping ghost silently turned his flying eyeball, trying to get the Great King's gossip, wanting to sneak a look at that beautiful human, but was scared back by a glance from Jin Chen.

Well, peeking is indeed fun, and a ghost's life is even more valuable.

Jin Chen had the six ghosts put Xiao Ming on the sofa, black mist swept over and entered his body.

The boy's brows furrowed, obviously feeling a bit cold.

Jin Chen: "You said earlier he has the Yin-Yang Eye."

The hanged ghost came over, saying, "Yeah, Great King, he can see lots of ghosts!"

"Not just that."

Jin Chen said calmly: "This person has a pure yin constitution, which is conducive to fierce ghost cultivation, equivalent to the nourishment of hundreds of human lives."

The six ghosts all dropped their jaws in shock: "Holy shit!"

The hungry ghost reacted first, crawling over to protect the boy on the sofa, "Great King, stay calm! Don't eat him!"

"Even if I died of hunger I wouldn't eat him!" the hungry ghost howled with genuine feeling.

Jin Chen: "……"

"I don't have that fetish."

Jin Chen also couldn't help but feel interested, his gaze sweeping over them, "You don't want to eat this person?"

The six ghosts looked at each other, then all shook their heads.

They had all been granted Ghost King's power by Jin Chen, giving them greater clarity than ordinary fierce ghosts, and they had long since scorned killing people for fun in cultivation.

The overfull ghost spoke as representative: "We've become friends with him, how could we eat a friend?"
