My Amazing WeChat is Connected to the Three Realms - Chapter 43

“Ugh! You pervert!” Lin Hai’s words nearly made Liu Xinqing faint.

Who was Liu Xinqing’s younger sister if not herself?

This shameless jerk not only had the audacity to flirt with her sister right in front of her but even had the nerve to say he wanted to… to do that with her!

Liu Xinqing felt that Lin Hai was utterly despicable.

Liu Xinqing was also stunned. Lin Hai had been speaking toward the passenger seat, but there was no one sitting there. Naturally, it seemed like he was talking to her.

This scoundrel! Not only was he involved with her, but he also had his eyes on her younger sister.

Lin Hai didn’t have time to explain. He quickly pulled out the small peachwood sword hanging from his chest.

“Dammit, why isn’t it working? It’s so close, why isn’t it having any effect?”

In the passenger seat, the female ghost he had seen at Peng Tao’s house—missing an arm and a leg—was now staring coldly at him.

“Both of you, get out of the car and take a taxi home. Hurry!” Lin Hai swallowed hard and spoke to the Liu sisters.

“What? You’re kicking us out? Do you even have a conscience? Just now, you were with my sister…”

“Forget it, I’ll get out!” It was the middle of the night, and Lin Hai was worried that something might happen to the sisters if they took a taxi.

Summoning his courage, Lin Hai opened the car door and stepped out, giving the female ghost a meaningful look.

He knew she could see him.

And she was definitely here for him. He couldn’t let the Liu sisters get involved.

Sure enough, as soon as he got out of the car, the ghost followed.

“Are you insane? You were all over my sister right in front of me, and now you’re mad because I mentioned it?” Liu Xinqing misunderstood, thinking Lin Hai was upset about what had just happened.

“Stop talking! There’s no time to explain. Just go!”

“Xinqing, take your sister and go home. I have something to take care of. Trust me!”

Unable to convince Liu Xinqing, Lin Hai turned to Liu Xinqing.

Seeing the serious look on Lin Hai’s face, Liu Xinqing nodded, though she didn’t fully understand.

“Be careful.”

“I will. Now go!”

“What a weirdo,” Liu Xinqing muttered as she drove off.

“You’re quite the charmer,” the female ghost said, baring her sinister teeth.

Lin Hai was stunned, his eyes widening.

“Was that… you talking?”

“Who else would it be?” the ghost replied.

“What the hell? I thought we couldn’t hear each other!” Lin Hai was completely baffled.

The ghost glanced at the peachwood sword around Lin Hai’s neck and pointed at it.

“Maybe it’s because of that.”

“Damn, this peachwood sword has that kind of power?”

“Uh, Miss… Miss…” Lin Hai struggled to find the right way to address her.

“My name is Han Xiuer,” the ghost said.

“Oh, Miss Han, I’m a decent person. I respect the elderly, care for the young, and help old ladies cross the street. I’ve never done anything evil. Why do you keep haunting me?” Lin Hai tried to suppress his fear.

“Such a smooth talker! I’m haunting you because you’re different. Others can’t see me, but you can.”

Seriously? That’s it?

Lin Hai was exasperated. Was this ghost just lonely and looking for company?

He quickly crossed his arms, ready to defend his virtue at all costs.

“I’ve been wandering this earth for 399 years, since the late Ming Dynasty,” Han Xiuer said, ignoring Lin Hai’s reaction.

“My lingering resentment won’t let me pass on to the afterlife. In one month, when it’s been 400 years, I’ll lose my consciousness and become a malevolent spirit.”

Lin Hai felt a chill run down his spine.

Damn, if she turns into a malevolent spirit and keeps following me, I’m done for.

Han Xiuer paused, then continued.

“To resolve my resentment, I need to fulfill a wish I had in life. And you’re the only one who can see me and communicate with me. Will you help me?”

“Miss Han, I’m just an ordinary person. How could I possibly help you? Maybe you should find someone else.”

Help you? You’ve been stuck for 400 years! What can I possibly do?

Han Xiuer sighed. “If you don’t help me, in one month, I’ll become a malevolent spirit, and then…”

Her pale face suddenly twisted into a horrifying visage, blood streaming from her eyes, nose, and mouth. She looked exactly like the vengeful ghosts from horror movies.

“Ahhh!” Lin Hai nearly fell over in fright.

“Fine, I’ll help you! I’ll help you!” he shouted.

As soon as Lin Hai agreed, Han Xiuer returned to her normal appearance, a sly smile on her face.

“Alright, how do I help?” Lin Hai was on the verge of tears. This was way too scary for the middle of the night.

Damn it, I’ll just help her with whatever she needs so she stops haunting me. Otherwise, I’ll die of fright sooner or later.

“Come to the Peng family tomorrow,” Han Xiuer said before turning and disappearing into the darkness.

“Damn it, I can’t live like this!”

After Han Xiuer left, Lin Hai squatted on the ground, his face filled with worry.

After encountering ghosts one after another, Lin Hai was starting to regret learning the Heavenly Eye technique.

He took a taxi back to his dorm.

The image of Han Xiuer’s terrifying face kept replaying in his mind, making it impossible to sleep.

“Wait, I should confront that old fraud, Master Zhang!”

Lin Hai opened WeChat and found Master Zhang.

Little Confused Immortal: Get out here! (followed by three angry emojis)

Master Zhang: What’s up? Why so angry?

Little Confused Immortal: You jerk! You said that with this peachwood sword, no ordinary ghost could get close to me, right?

Master Zhang: Yeah, what’s the problem?

Little Confused Immortal: Then why did that female ghost still get close to me? This stupid sword didn’t do anything!

Master Zhang: Well, obviously, that ghost isn’t ordinary.

Pfft!

Lin Hai almost spat out his drink reading Master Zhang’s reply.

Damn it! If ordinary ghosts can’t get close, then the ones that do must be extraordinary. You’re just twisting your words to sound right no matter what!

This is pure nonsense!

Little Confused Immortal: You shameless old man, give me a refund!

Master Zhang: No refunds.

Little Confused Immortal: I demand a refund!!!

Damn it, this guy…

Lin Hai waited for a while, but Master Zhang stopped responding.

Screw you, old man. Just you wait.

Lin Hai was fuming.

The next day, after barely sleeping, Lin Hai got up with dark circles under his eyes, made himself a bowl of instant noodles, and checked WeChat to see what his cheat app had managed to snag for him.

What the hell?

His Qiankun Bag was empty. Did Taishang Laojun not send anything today?

That’s weird. He’s usually very punctual.

Maybe the cheat app is broken.

Lin Hai quickly opened the trading group to check.

Scrolling through the previous day’s chat logs, he finally found a message from around 9 PM.

Taishang Laojun: I’m going on a business trip. Red packets will be paused until I return.

Damn, the old man’s gone on a trip.

Lin Hai was frustrated. His main source of income was Taishang Laojun’s red packets.

“Huh? My phone’s ringing?” Lin Hai saw an unknown number.

Decline! It’s probably some insurance or stock scam.

As soon as he hung up, the phone rang again. Same number.

Damn, they’re persistent.

Lin Hai hung up again.

Less than 10 seconds later, it rang again.

Are you kidding me? Give it a rest!

Lin Hai hung up and blocked the number.

Finally, silence.

Just as Lin Hai breathed a sigh of relief, an angry voice shouted from downstairs.

“Lin Hai, you shameless pervert, get down here!”
