Chapter 872: Ghosts in the Painting

~6 min read 1,092 words

"Let's go, it's time for us to set off!"

Seeing that all the women had entered the Indestructible Realm after taking the Third-Turn Golden Elixirs, Lin Fan nodded with satisfaction, and then he led the women out of the small world.

The group walked and stopped. Passing by a city, Lin Fan led the women into the city to stroll through the market. Wandering in the wilderness was leisurely, but it lacked a bit of the atmosphere of human life.

Lin Fan bought some rouge, powder, and silk for the women, making them beam with joy.

"Bad guy, I don't like these, why did you buy them for me too?"

Lin Yueru played with the eyebrow pencil in her hand and said insincerely.

"Treat everyone equally. If everyone has one and you don't, you'll blame me for being biased again. Besides, you should dress up and show a bit of femininity. How can you always be like a tomboy?"

"I am a tomboy! Don't you like it? Hmph!"

Lin Yueru rolled her eyes at Lin Fan, but she still accepted the eyebrow pencil. In her heart, she was wondering if she should dress up too, to make this bad guy Lin Fan's eyes light up.

"Hmm? Brother Lin Fan, there is ghost energy and resentment on the painting in that man's hand!"

At this moment, Zhao Linger pulled Lin Fan's sleeve and pointed to the scroll in a passing man's hand.

"The painting is filled with ghost energy and resentment, which means a ghost who died with a grievance is attached to the painting. But there are too many injustices in this world. Do you think we should intervene?"

Lin Fan didn't intend to intervene immediately but handed the power of choice to Zhao Linger and the others.

"We think we should intervene. Although there are too many injustices in the world for us to handle, since we've encountered this one, we should intervene. Isn't this the original intention of us traveling the world, slaying demons, and upholding justice?"

Lin Yueru and the others discussed it and felt they should intervene. They couldn't do anything about things they didn't encounter, but since they had, they must intervene.

"Then follow your hearts, let's intervene!"

Lin Fan smiled and nodded, then led the women to stop the man.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking my path?"

The man was somewhat angry at being stopped by Lin Fan, but seeing Lin Fan's extraordinary bearing, he didn't dare to get angry and just asked in a deep voice.

"Young master, the scroll in your hand is filled with resentment and ghost energy, which means a female ghost who died with a grievance is attached to the painting. Hand it over to me, and let me see what grievances she has!"

Before the man could agree, Lin Fan beckoned, and the scroll flew into his hand. Then, Lin Fan threw a gold ingot into the man's hand as payment for the painting.

"Hey, you..."

The man wanted to continue pestering, but Lin Fan had already led the women to soar into the sky and fly away from the city.

"Come out. Tell us what grievances you have, and let's see if these heroines can help you seek justice!"

Lin Fan led the women to a bamboo forest and spoke to the scroll.

"Young master, please forgive me. It's not that Sanniang doesn't want to come out, but the sun is too bright right now, so Sanniang dare not appear."

A soft, charming female voice suddenly came from the scroll. As a female ghost, she naturally couldn't see the sun. If it weren't for Lin Fan's magic power on the two female ghosts, Xiao Xiao Xie and Qiurong, they wouldn't be able to appear in the sunlight either.

"With my protection, even the scorching sun is no problem. Come out!"

Lin Fan gently stroked the scroll, and his Heavenly Immortal magic power protected the female ghost. The next second, a figure in a black dress appeared before Lin Fan and the women.

So it was her. The moment Lin Fan saw the female ghost, he recognized who she was.

"Thank you, young master, for your protection. Sanniang is deeply grateful."

The female ghost bowed gracefully to Lin Fan and said with a grateful expression.

"Your name is Sanniang?"

Zhang Sanniang became interested, walked up to the female ghost, and hooked her chin with interest.

"This concubine is Mei Sanniang. I wonder if there is anything inappropriate?"

Mei Sanniang originally thought she was beautiful enough, but she didn't expect the women in front of her to be like a hundred flowers in full bloom, each with her own beauty, completely not inferior to herself.

"My name is Zhang Sanniang, and you are Mei Sanniang. We are quite fated. Tell me, what grievances do you have? I will help you avenge your hatred so that your resentment can dissipate and you can be reincarnated in peace!"

Zhang Sanniang was originally just watching the fun, but she didn't expect the female ghost to be named Mei Sanniang. She felt fated and decided to take charge for her.

"I was originally a courtesan who sold art but not my body, but I met the wrong person and wrongly trusted a penniless, down-and-out scholar named Wang Anxu. Not only did I give myself to him, but I also took out all my savings to support him in going to the capital for the imperial examination. But after he passed with high honors, he climbed up to the daughter of a Hanlin scholar, and because he was worried that I would delay his future, he burned me alive. My resentment is hard to dissipate, and I cannot be reincarnated, so I wander bitterly in the human world."

Mentioning the past, Mei Sanniang's expression was somewhat painful.

"What? There is such a man? It's simply too abominable! There isn't a single good man in the world!"

Lin Yueru said indignantly upon hearing this.

"Hmm?"

"Bad guy, I wasn't talking about you!"

Lin Yueru stuck out her tongue. It seemed she had just knocked down her own man with one stroke.

"Then what do you intend to do?"

Lin Fan knew that Mei Sanniang was a romantic fool. If he didn't intervene, she would be deceived a second time. He could only see what Lin Yueru and the others intended to do.

"What else can we do? Burn that Wang Anxu alive too, and treat him the way he treated others!" ===== CHAPTER 874 =====
