Ghost Matchmaking: Ghost Emperor Husband and Campus Queen Wife Chapter 127: The Lord’s Wife Must Not Be Humiliated, Are the
HUM!
The mont Mr. Yu knelt!
The entire place fell deathly silent!
Every ghost turned pale with shock, their eyes fixed on the frowning Yun Zhenyue.
’The Lord’s... wife?’
The title echoed in their ears.
The general manager, who was unaware of the Nightmare Hunter’s existence, felt his mind go blank. Even without knowing the inside story, he could discern the situation from Mr. Yu’s display of utmost reverence.
’He knelt just from learning her identity?’
This was the mysterious being that even Mr. Ji respected from the depths of his being.
Before her!
Yet he showed no airs at all, acting instead with the sa heartfelt respect those small shopkeepers showed him.
’This girl is the wife of Mr. Yu’s Lord?’
The general manager was filled with regret!
’Did I really just almost kill her?’
’And I indiscriminately punished her friend?’
’No wonder Mr. Yu was so furious!’
But what terrified the general manager most was this:
An entity like Mr. Yu was rely a subordinate!
’Just what kind of being is that Lord?’
’Did I just make a powerful enemy for the Fierce Ghost Mall?’
If he were to be held responsible for this!
The owner of the Fierce Ghost Mall would skin him alive!
The general manager’s heart trembled.
The coldness from the profile beside him was like ice from the deepest abyss, piercing him to the core.
All the upper-level staff of the Fierce Ghost Mall realized this possibility as well.
So stared blankly, secretly terrified, thankful they hadn’t acted rashly.
Others, however, secretly rejoiced.
If this general manager were to fall, they would have a chance to rise up.
At this mont, the most shocked person was, without a doubt, Mr. Ji.
"The Lord’s wife?"
"She’s *his* wife?"
Mr. Ji’s pupils shrank to pinpricks, his expression dazed as if he were lost in a dream.
He knew the Nightmare Hunter existed!
And he was the one who yearned to join them most!
The legendary Nightmare Hunter!
Hunting ghosts as prey!
They are the nightmare of the countless ghosts beneath the red fog!
’How he longed to join them! Even if it ant giving away his instance dungeon, he would offer it up with both hands without a second thought, just for a chance!’
But they couldn’t care less!
The Lord of the Nightmare Hunter...
...was rumored to have already surpassed the Great Evil!
He had beco a terrifying existence beyond all these endless ghosts, a being no one could possibly imagine!
What were ghost coins and treasures?
To the mbers of the Nightmare Hunter, they were all worthless as dirt.
Being a mber of the Nightmare Hunter, working under that Lord, was a source of pride for them. They valued their honor above all else.
Mr. Yu was just as protective of his honor.
It was only because he had helped him in the past that he was able to invite Mr. Yu to this banquet.
Besides, never mind angering the Lord’s wife!
Even a substitute mber was not soone he, a re Crimson-robed Ghost, could provoke!
If word got out that soone had angered the Lord’s wife...
...the mbers of the Nightmare Hunter wouldn’t even need to act.
The millions upon millions of ghosts who wished to join the Nightmare Hunter would go mad trying to take that person’s head!
Even if it only offered the faintest glimr of hope of becoming a mber!
’Good thing I suppressed my anger just now and only scowled.’
’Otherwise, even Mr. Yu wouldn’t have spared !’
...
At that mont, Yun Zhenyue’s furrowed brow slowly relaxed.
"Are you one of Gu Yuan’s people?"
Yu Honghui’s heart jolted violently when he heard the na "Gu Yuan".
He had been trying to identify Yun Zhenyue’s aura.
He had never t her, nor had he ever heard that the Lord had a wife.
But the aura on her was unmistakable.
His first two questions were an attempt to confirm it.
However, Yun Zhenyue hadn’t answered.
It was only when he got closer and took a look...
...that he faintly saw the butterfly mark on the back of Yun Zhenyue’s right hand.
That was sothing only ghosts within the Nightmare Hunter could see on each other!
That mark was left by the Lord’s seal!
One must understand, the Lord was their supre faith!
But the Lord had been gone for a long ti.
The ghosts within the Nightmare Hunter were all desperate to see him again!
And that very seal was what he had taken with him when he left.
No one could possibly fake the aura of that seal.
So...
Even if she wasn’t the Lord’s wife, she was definitely connected to the Lord.
"Stand up first. I have sothing to ask you."
Yun Zhenyue said slowly, seeing Yu Honghui still kneeling.
"As you command!"
Yu Honghui rose to his feet, his expression reverent.
"Those questions you asked just now, were they to verify my identity?"
Yun Zhenyue subconsciously touched the back of her cold right hand.
When she first entered the Fierce Ghost Mall,
she had felt a chill.
Now, with Yu Honghui before her, that chill was even more distinct.
’Does my mark have a tracking function?’
"That is correct."
"Then what did you an by asking if I knew you?"
"Well—"
Yu Honghui took a deep breath, a bitter look on his face.
"I simply wanted to know if the Lord was aware of my existence."
"But I am also aware that I am just a low-ranking mber of the organization. It’s only natural that the Lord wouldn’t know of a nobody like , that I am not worthy of his notice."
"I see."
Yun Zhenyue understood what Yu Honghui ant.
’Since he’s part of Gu Yuan’s organization, that makes him one of us.’
"Can you tell about this organization in detail?" Yun Zhenyue asked again. "I’m not very clear on it."
"To be honest, you must have sensed the aura of the mark on the back of my hand, right?"
"This got stamped on by accident when I was cleaning under the bed."
’Cleaning under the bed?’
’Can a seal really be stamped by accident?’
Hearing this, Yu Honghui’s scalp went numb.
’It seems she really is the Lord’s wife, and their relationship must be extrely intimate!’
’The Lord isn’t even angry that she used the Nightmare Hunter’s seal without permission.’
’It could only be her!’
The Lord’s seal represents his supre authority!
If any mber dared to secretly use the seal without permission!
Even if the Lord said nothing, the other mbers would tear them to shreds!
Imdiately, Yu Honghui gave Yun Zhenyue a brief introduction to the Nightmare Hunter.
He explained the origin of the na and their status.
The more Yun Zhenyue listened, the more shocked she beca.
"The nightmare of ghosts?"
She said in astonishnt, looking at the back of her hand.
Just then,
Yu Honghui looked at the terrified general manager standing to the side.
He was a high-level Crimson-robed Ghost, one of the few powerful beings in the mall!
But daring to make a move on the Lord’s wife was unforgivable!
"By the way, how do you wish to deal with him?" Yu Honghui asked respectfully.
"Well—"
Yun Zhenyue hesitated for a mont.
Although she was furious about the general manager’s actions,
’this is his territory. If we fight him, won’t it cause trouble for Gu Yuan’s organization?’
"I understand."
Seeing Yun Zhenyue’s attitude, Yu Honghui’s voice turned cold.
’The glory of the Nightmare Hunter cannot be sullied!’
’And no one is permitted to challenge it!’
"You, what are you doing?" The general manager was terrified. He couldn’t believe Mr. Yu would actually try to kill him inside the mall.
’Even if he doesn’t care about my dignity, he has to consider the mall owner’s, doesn’t he?’
To save his own life,
the general manager hurriedly begged for rcy, "I am willing to resign from my position as general manager! Please, sir, be rciful!"
Mr. Ji remained silent off to the side.
The mall’s high-level ghosts also said nothing.
’This should be enough.’
The general manager had already paid a price. To kill him now would be a show of disrespect to the mall’s owner.
The mall owner’s power was no weaker than Mr. Yu’s.
But at that very mont!
HUM!
Yu Honghui turned to look!
An icy light erupted from his bone-white pupils!
"You—"
The general manager’s eyes widened, his body freezing on the spot!
Even his pleas for rcy died in his throat!
The next second,
his skin turned a ghastly bluish-white!
Countless diamond-shaped icicles burst from his body, easily piercing his flesh. Icicles even jutted from his eye sockets, making him look like a hedgehog, and the frozen blood vessels beneath his skin were faintly visible!
CRACK, CRACKLE~
A strange sound arose!
Like sothing that had beco brittle from extre cold!
Three seconds later,
The general manager’s skin showed a web of ice-like cracks. His body could no longer withstand the chilling icicles. His skin tore apart inch by inch, and with a final BANG, his flesh and blood turned to ice shards!
He vanished before everyone’s eyes.
"This..."
All the ghosts, Mr. Ji included, felt a terrifying chill seep into their hearts.
’He really... just killed him like that?’
’Is Mr. Yu always this ruthless?’
And that wasn’t all!
Yu Honghui didn’t spare the yaksa who had slandered Yun Zhenyue, either!
Seeing this horrifying scene, the yaksa scrambled to run toward the fifth floor!
"Don’t kill , don’t kill !!!"
he scread, breaking down as he fled.
But Yu Honghui showed no rcy!
"Go..."
He made a grasping motion with his right hand.
A massive, prismatic icicle instantly materialized in his grip!
At a speed no one could react to,
he threw the icicle with just a low grunt!
WHOOSH!!!
In the blink of an eye!
The icicle pierced through the yaksa’s back!
He didn’t even have a chance to beg for rcy.
His heart was impaled!
And then he t the sa fate as the general manager!
With a loud BANG!
His body exploded into shards of ice!
Only then did Yu Honghui lower his head and murmur.
"The Lord’s wife... must not be insulted."
"Even I, if guilty of such a sin, would have to atone with my life."
After doing all this,
Yu Honghui took the initiative to ask, "Ma’am, I fear I alone am not enough to ensure your safety."
"May I send a ssage and ask so friends to co?"
He could see that Yun Zhenyue didn’t seem to like attracting too much attention.
The Lord probably felt the sa way.
Otherwise, if the high-ranking mbers of the Nightmare Hunter were summoned, they could tear this entire mall apart!
"Alright," Yun Zhenyue said, her feelings complex.
’Is this Nightmare Hunter organization always so domineering?’
’I thought they would just be punished and that would be the end of it.’
’I never expected them to kill just like that!’
’Without any hesitation!’
’Given Gu Yuan’s lazy personality...’
’...I originally thought the ghosts in his organization would have a similar style.’
Hearing this,
Yu Honghui was overjoyed.
He waved his palm, and a translucent ice pigeon materialized.
The ice pigeon flapped its wings once and flew toward the outside world.
Then, Yu Honghui said respectfully, "I’m used to using this ice pigeon. Please don’t laugh."
"But they will arrive in half a day at most."
"I swear on my life that during this ti, I will not spare anyone who dares to lay a single finger on you!"
