"Are you a scare freak?"
"How...how did you know?"
The female ghost's voice was quite pleasant, soft, like a young girl's.
"I also know you can walk through walls. Come on, let's sit down and talk slowly. I'm a friendly person, and I'll try not to fight if I can avoid it."
Xia Tianqiong casually put his arm around the female ghost's shoulder and walked into the room.
The female ghost was both panicked and frightened. Isn't it said that humans are afraid of the supernatural?
Why isn't this human afraid of me at all? Is my appearance not scary enough?
Thinking of this, the female ghost suddenly broke free from Xia Tianqiong's arm.
"Waaaaah! I'm going to eat you!"
Its face suddenly changed, like a Sichuan opera face-changing act, instantly transforming into another ferocious face.
His face was covered in rotting flesh and blood, and his mouth was full of long, sharp teeth.
To enhance the terror effect, it also made its hands into claws, as if about to pounce.
Xia Tianqiong pouted and slapped it on the head, making it stagger.
"Stop messing around, you can't scare me."
The intimidating figure stood frozen in place, his face filled with disbelief.
Does this person have some kind of defect, that they are born without the feeling of fear?
Suddenly remembering something, he laughed triumphantly, "You attacked first, so I can eat you without even using the Death Rule, hahaha!"
As it spoke, it lunged at Xia Tianqiong, this time truly intending to kill him.
Xia Tianqiong sighed, "I want to have a proper talk, I really don't want to resort to violence."
A few minutes later, Xia Tianqiong continued to drink beer in her left hand and grill skewers in her right, while the threatening ghost stood to the side looking aggrieved.
Its hair was disheveled, and its cheeks and clothes were covered with footprints.
"Waaah, I was wrong, please let me go! I'll return to the Ghost Realm right now and never come back to the human world again, humans are too scary."
The threatening ghost wiped away tears with his sleeve, crying so sadly.
This scene left Xia Tianqiong completely bewildered.
Having lived two lives, this is the first time I've encountered something that cries—it's so interesting!
"Stop crying, making a contract with me is your only choice."
Xia Tianqiong's tone softened slightly, "Anyway, you can't return to the Ghost Realm. If you, a mere wild ghost, don't form a contract with me, you'll be killed by other humans sooner or later."
Through a combination of coaxing, deception, and intimidation, the ghost finally signed a human-master contract with him.
After signing the contract, the treacherous ghost reverted to its original form, revealing itself to be a very pretty girl, about sixteen or seventeen years old.
It also has two tricks, one of which is the ability to pass through walls, which allows the body to become ethereal and pass through any physical object.
Another is face-changing magic, which allows one to change their appearance at will.
Neither of these tricks has much offensive power, but they are quite practical tricks, and you never know when you might need to use them.
In the days that followed, Xia Tianqiong lived here, and the three ghost-hunting teams were able to capture eight or ten strange creatures every day.
Most are wild monsters, and a few are fierce monsters.
He only selects contracts that are useful for trickery, sealing the rest within the chessboard.
Besides hunting monsters here, Xia Tianqiong also takes on other missions to hunt monsters in various parts of the city.
Because of his high efficiency, the strange occurrences in the entire city of Lin'an are rapidly decreasing.
The higher-ups at the Bureau were overjoyed, but the other ghost hunters gradually developed a dislike for him.
