Ghost Matchmaking: Ghost Emperor Husband and Campus Queen Wife Chapter 145: Gu Yuan’s Phone Call, One Sentence to Grant You

THUD!

At that mont!

Eternal Daylight transford the entire Dream World into the deepest nightmare!

RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE!

The sun, scribbled in crayon, wailed and wept. Its falling tears turned into cataclysmic teorites that crashed toward the ground. The earth trembled violently, and the roads split open into savage cracks, like a great beast opening its blood-rimd maw!

The money scattered on the ground turned into joss paper coins. A cold wind swept up the yellow paper, playing a mournful dirge.

Babies hanging from the trees fell to the ground with a WAH WAH, their bodies imdiately swelling a hundredfold into terrifying giants. They grabbed pedestrians from the roadside, stuffed them into their mouths, and clapped their hands with glee!

Crows let out hoarse, shrill cries. Human heads swelled until they burst with a BANG, the splattering flesh and blood morphing into a swarm of locusts that blotted out the sky!

This world had been twisted.

Yun Zhenyue hugged ngng tightly, forcing herself to calm down.

She still had one last trump card!

—On-Site Replication!

’As long as I can find the ng Ghost’s weakness, I can use his own abilities against him!’

’But first, I have to find the ng Ghost!’

The mbers of the Nightmare Hunter squad protected the two of them.

Although they were trapped in the nightmare, the monstrous creatures within couldn’t harm them.

Yun Zhenyue took the opportunity to state her request.

"Ma’am, there is a simpler way," Yu Honghui said calmly.

He launched an icicle, piercing the head of one of the giant infants.

"Do you have the Lord’s phone number? If you tell him about this, as soon as he gives the word, the target won’t be able to escape, no matter where he’s hiding..."

’Call Gu Yuan?’

Yun Zhenyue’s heart raced. The nightmare was making her dizzy.

She didn’t know why Yu Honghui was so confident, but ’it wouldn’t hurt to ask Gu Yuan how to handle this.’

"I didn’t bring my phone. Does anyone have one?" Yun Zhenyue asked, looking at the Nightmare Hunter mbers.

Since this mission forbade bringing any items, she naturally hadn’t brought hers. Her tri-fold phone was still inside the ghost painting.

"Ma’am, please use mine," the Light Ghost said, taking out an exquisite flip phone.

"Thank you."

Yun Zhenyue took the phone without a second’s hesitation.

She imdiately dialed a familiar number, calling Gu Yuan.

BEEP BEEP BEEP~

Three seconds later.

The call connected.

...

「anwhile.」

Watching this hair-raising nightmare, the audience in Dragon Country felt their chests tighten, their breathing growing short.

There was one piece of good news.

The ng Ghost hadn’t truly reached the level of a high-level Evil Star.

But even so, he was just one step away.

Not to ntion, this was his ho turf!

He had likely set an inescapable trap long ago, just waiting for Yun Zhenyue and her team to arrive!

It wasn’t that they lacked confidence.

This was a reality forged from the nightmares of countless people.

It was twisted and utterly pathological.

The ng Ghost had also defected from the Nightmare Hunters.

Would calling Gu Yuan, their forr Lord, really do any good?

[I really shouldn’t have watched the live stream. I’m going to have nightmares tonight.]

[This is tough. He had such a long wind-up, spent all that ti talking. They should’ve just rushed in and killed him then.]

[They were probably afraid of a trap. What if he was saying all that on purpose?]

[That phone is amazing. You can make calls in a dream?]

[So what now? Gu Yuan can’t just fly over. What good is one damn phone call?!]

[Don’t tell Gu Yuan is going to back down and let the ng Ghost rejoin the organization? That would be so frustrating!]

...

"Hello~"

A familiar, soft voice ca from the other end of the line.

If you listened closely, you could even hear the sounds of an intense video ga battle.

The Nightmare Hunter mbers didn’t dare to breathe, their eyes fixed on Yun Zhenyue.

"Honey, I’m in trouble at the Fierce Ghost Mall," Yun Zhenyue said, lightly biting her lower lip.

’If the situation weren’t so difficult, I’d have preferred not to call Gu Yuan.’

’It was the sa with Lily before.’

’Calling him every ti I’m in trouble... doesn’t that just make seem useless?’

"The Fierce Ghost Mall?"

On the other end of the line, Gu Yuan made a soft sound of surprise.

"You’ve run into the ng Ghost."

"Honey, you knew he was here?" Yun Zhenyue asked, startled and confused.

"Of course. I’m the one who kicked him out, after all," the voice on the phone sounded rather helpless. "How is he? Has he repented?"

"Not at all..."

Yun Zhenyue explained everything to Gu Yuan.

Hearing this, Gu Yuan on the other end of the call understood the situation.

Dream-Weaving Ghost Perpetual Daylight.

He was a child Gu Yuan had once taken in.

He looked like a middle-aged man, but that was just a disguise, a re shell in the Dream World.

Gu Yuan had once brought Eternal Daylight back to an orphanage.

But he never fit in with the other children.

Later, he begged Gu Yuan to help him beco stronger, so Gu Yuan brought him into the Nightmare Hunters.

He had given Eternal Daylight two chances, hoping to temper his frantic and manic personality, but was disappointed every ti. On the third strike, he was expelled.

Gu Yuan knew he had fled to the Fierce Ghost Mall, but at the ti, Eternal Daylight had his tail between his legs and didn’t cause any trouble. Out of consideration for their past, Gu Yuan hadn’t hunted him down and finished him off.

"He still hasn’t reached the level of a high-level Evil Star after all this ti. It seems he’s been holding back."

"Otherwise, forget just a hundred people, he could have easily pulled everyone within a several-hundred-kiloter radius into his dream."

"But he was right about one thing. I’m really not a good person."

Hearing Gu Yuan’s words, Yun Zhenyue’s heart stirred, but she didn’t press for details.

She knew Gu Yuan kept many secrets.

But she believed that Gu Yuan was not a man who would kill the innocent.

Just then!

A giant infant, hundreds of ters tall, turned its gaze toward them!

Its mouth was full of shredded flesh and blood, and on its forehead was the mark of a Dream Catcher!

Unlike the other giant infants that acted on instinct, this one seed to possess reason.

’When he saw Yun Zhenyue and the others in the midst of this nightmare, not only did they show no fear or panic, they were... on the phone?’

’Did they really think his Three Thousand Nightmares, his Paradise, was just a ga?’

"—ROAR!!!"

The giant infant flew into a rage. It roared, opening its blood-rimd maw, and charged toward the group!

The ground shattered, and the entire Nightmare World shook!

But just as the giant infant’s massive hand was about to descend from the sky and crush them, a calm voice spoke.

"Stop."

"It’s ti to end this."

Hearing those words, the giant infant’s eyes widened in shock!

As if struck by lightning, it froze completely.

A figure slowly walked out from the Dream Catcher mark on its forehead.

It was none other than Eternal Daylight, who had just vanished.

Hearing the familiar voice...

"H-How can this be!"

Eternal Daylight instantly panicked. He never imagined that the call was to Gu Yuan!

’This is cheating!’

’How could they do this?’

Eternal Daylight’s heart filled with terror. He wanted to flee, but his body stopped, refusing to obey.

At this mont, Yun Zhenyue held up the phone on speaker.

Gu Yuan sighed on the other end, his voice slowly carrying out.

"Don’t bla for disregarding our past. Your cris are truly unforgivable."

"So be it. Dying in a dream is the best end for you."

"Do it yourself."

As the words fell, despair filled Eternal Daylight’s eyes!

Even though he wanted to escape, after Gu Yuan gave the command, his body was completely beyond his control, like a machine being operated by remote control.

"I... why can’t I move!"

Eternal Daylight felt as if a hand was choking him!

’Can’t move!’

’My body is completely out of my control!’

He tried again and again, but it was as if he were being crushed by an iceberg, with absolutely no chance of breaking free.

Facing Gu Yuan, just hearing his voice was enough to make fear bloom in Eternal Daylight’s heart.

Regret gradually began to fill him.

In his endless despair, a thought surfaced in his mind.

It was as if he were back on that night.

’Why did I want to beco stronger?’

’Was it to repay him for saving that day?’

’Or was it to surpass him, to prove myself?’

Eternal Daylight could no longer tell the difference.

Unfortunately, everything had been led to a different ending by his own impatience and insecurity.

He left behind only one last sentence.

"Did I disappoint you again in the end...?"

As his words faded, he slapped a palm against his own head!

In an instant, his presence vanished. His entire existence dissolved into the dream and faded into nothingness.

In the ti it took to speak a few sentences, the Dream-Weaving Ghost Perpetual Daylight, who was on the verge of becoming a high-level Evil Star, was dead!

...

At this mont, the global audience stared in horror!

No way. What just happened?

Did Gu Yuan really make him commit suicide with just a few words?

It couldn’t be because Eternal Daylight was simply obedient. From his earlier resentnt, it was clear the ng Ghost was deeply dissatisfied with Gu Yuan.

Yet, this ending looked exactly like he had lost control of his own body.

Recalling what the ng Ghost had said earlier—that a lifeti of good deeds could not wash away Gu Yuan’s blood and sins—a sense of dread gripped the hearts of the global audience.

Just what kind of power was this?

「At this mont.」

Yun Zhenyue was also filled with astonishnt and confusion.

She had never expected that a few words from Gu Yuan could make the ng Ghost, who had been such a difficult opponent for them, choose to die.

They were so far apart, yet the ng Ghost hadn’t resisted in the slightest!

’Could it be... this is Gu Yuan’s trick?’

’Is he able to control ghosts?’
