Chapter 1 The Ghost Hunter
In the back mountains of Luofu.
The jungle was dense, and white mist began to rise.
"Sister, sister..."
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Luo Xi turned her head sharply. She froze, staring at the familiar face not far away. Her eyes flickered, and her heart sank.
The person who looks exactly like her sister and has the same voice is not her sister, but a ghost in disguise.
Because her younger sister had died long ago.
The Painted Skin Ghost walked towards Luo Xi, her steps light and airy, without making a sound.
Luo Xi silently tightened her grip on the talisman and the peach wood sword in her hand.
The painted-skin demon walked up to Luo Xi, tilted its head, and said playfully, "Sister, why are you looking at me like that?"
Her face looks better than hers now, and she wants it.
Luo Xi composed herself, then, overjoyed and with a hint of disbelief, she cried out, "Sister?"
"Sister, it's me, I'm back."
The painted-skin demon rushed over, trying to hug Luo Xi.
Luo Xi remained vigilant. The moment Luo Xi approached, she swiftly struck, affixing several talismans to Luo Xi's body before stepping back two paces.
Painted Skin Demon: !!!
She can't move now.
Damn it, it was careless.
However, she was able to move after a quarter of an hour.
Luo Xi said coldly, "You are not my sister, you are a demon in disguise."
"Hahaha"
"You're so smart!"
"So what? Take a good look at my face, can you really bring yourself to do it?"
"Giggle giggle"
She laughed arrogantly, knowing Luo Xi wouldn't hurt her. After all, she had the same face as her sister. She'd heard that Luo Xi and her sister were very close.
Luo Xi demonstrated through her actions that she was capable of doing it.
The next second, the peach blossom sword with the talisman pierced through the painted skin ghost's left chest.
Luo Xi felt that one sword strike wasn't enough, so she stabbed her several more times.
"Ah!" The painted skin ghost writhed in pain, but it just couldn't break free from the talisman binding it.
Luo Xi watched silently as the painted-skin ghost was burned, showing no sign of pity.
She said softly, "Why can't I bring myself to do it?"
"Wouldn't that solve the problem?"
Feeling the burning sensation on her body, the painted-skin ghost said in disbelief, "You...you..."
Isn't her beloved younger sister the one she cherishes most? She even specially changed her face to resemble her sister's.
However, upon seeing her face, Luo Xi didn't hesitate at all and injured her. It seems the rumors weren't true!
Was Luo Xi just pretending to love her sister all along?
The painted-skin demon thought she had revealed the truth.
Luo Xi pursed her lips and said, "A fake is a fake. Even if you have the same face, you are not her."
Painted Skin Demon: !!!
Her voice trembled as she said, "Can you please let me go just this once? Just this once." It was still Luo Xi's sister's voice.
Upon hearing this, Luo Xi remained silent, watching as the spotted ghost was burned.
Finally, the Painted Skin Ghost died.
