Finally, Chu Jiang glanced at the Ghost Diary and asked, "How credible do you think you are in my eyes?"

The Ghost Diary didn't display any text, and it's unclear whether it was intentional or unintentional. The long string of supplementary content disappeared, leaving only the original prophecy.

"Playing hard to get?" Chu Jiang shook his head and put the diary away first.

Then Chu Jiang looked at the ghost bride, "A wedding ceremony is out of the question, as for the rest..."

Chu Jiang hesitated. Did he really have to do *that* with a ghost?

Finally, Chu Jiang took the ghost bride's hands and, as she wished, removed the red veil from her head.

As the bright red veil slipped off, Chu Jiang saw once again that stunningly beautiful, aloof face beneath the phoenix crown.

Moreover, as Chu Jiang made this move, the ghost bride's slightly trembling eyelids opened.

It had a pair of blood-red eyes, lifeless, indifferent, and cold, devoid of any living emotion.

Although Chu Jiang couldn't read any emotion in it, it just stared at Chu Jiang quietly, its eyes fixed on him, as if it could never close its eyes again.

After staring at each other for a while, Chu Jiang tried to pull his hands away, but the ghost bride noticed this and gripped them even tighter.

This gave Chu Jiang a headache and made him start to doubt whether Mr. Xu's method was reliable or not.

Doesn't this make them stick even stickier? Is it really possible to be tricked away with just a little sweetness?

Just as Chu Jiang hesitated about whether to take things further, the ghost bride moved closer and nestled into his arms...

Chapter 378 The Ghost Bride's "Rebirth"

What would it feel like to be nestled in the arms of a female ghost? Soft and fragrant? Indulging in fantasies?

"Nonsense!" Chu Jiang felt a chill and stiffness, as if he were holding a corpse.

Well, it's no different from a corpse.

Chu Jiang thought it over and over again, and decided to make a three-point agreement with the ghost bride, but the ghost bride couldn't understand him when he spoke human language.

So Chu Jiang finally released the ghost taxi. This time, instead of using the White Tiger Card to control the taxi, he used the black flame to complete the memetic infection. In this way, the duration was much longer than using cards.

Then Chu Jiang pointed to himself, then to the car, and said, "I'll give you a treat; you get in the car and go to another world. We should have a chance to meet again in the future."

This ghost taxi was something Chu Jiang had taken from that dark world; it should be able to take the ghost bride back to that place.

The ghost bride, of course, did not respond. She simply clung to Chu Jiang, refusing to let go. Her blood-red eyes were still slightly raised, looking up at him, as if afraid he would disappear again.

Chu Jiang lowered his head slightly to look at the ghost bride, and moved closer and closer to her until their lips touched...

With a light tap, Chu Jiang released his hand, pried the other person's hand open, and quickly stuffed it into the ghost taxi.

To Chu Jiang's surprise, the ghost bride didn't resist much this time. Could it be that, as Mr. Xu said, satisfying her obsession a little would be enough?

After getting into the taxi, Chu Jiang finally had time to observe the ghost bride's condition.

Although they only touched once, Chu Jiang could definitely feel that the other person's lips were soft, unlike the stiff and rigid body.

As for the ghost bride's feelings... Chu Jiang didn't know. He only knew that she had closed her eyes and her chest was rising and falling slightly, even though she wasn't breathing. Such movements seemed somewhat superfluous.

In short, it was a good thing that they weren't bothering him anymore. Chu Jiang immediately patted the taxi, signaling it to start moving quickly, without looking back, and to go as fast as it could and as far as it could go!

The engine emitted a painful wheezing sound, the radio started playing "Night Fragrance," and the old car shot off in a flash, much faster than when it used to carry Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang finally breathed a sigh of relief after watching the ghost taxi drive further and further away until it finally drove into a dark, endless road.

Then he touched his lips, feeling a sense of loss. This must be what the Ghost Diary meant by "sacrifice."

Shaking his head, Chu Jiang waited for the ghost taxi to return.

......

On the dark, empty highway, the ghost bride in the ghost taxi is undergoing some unknown change.

To be precise, everything happened after it had close contact with Chu Jiang.

Half an hour later, the taxi drove past the ghost temple not far away; but it did not stop, but just drove aimlessly forward, and the hazy temple was not open.

The ghost bride, whose chest had been heaving, finally slowly opened her eyes.

Its eyes were still blood-red, but at this moment, they were no longer as lifeless and cold as before; or rather, beyond lifelessness and coldness, there was something else, something indescribable and inexplicable...

After the ghost bride woke up, she did not force herself to get out of the car or run back to find Chu Jiang.

It was just looking out the car window at the dark world, like a baby opening its eyes for the first time to observe the world.

......

At the same time, Chu Jiang was chatting with Chen Ke'er on WeChat.

"Touch, touch, it's okay, I won't mind. It's just kissing a ghost, it's just a matter of life, don't take it seriously."

Just then, the red veil that had disappeared without a trace after being removed by Chu Jiang suddenly reappeared from the ground and flew straight towards Chu Jiang!

Chu Jiang was startled and immediately reached out to grab the ghostly thing to prevent it from pouncing on him.

Upon touching Chu Jiang's body, the red headscarf spontaneously transformed into a red rope and tied to its left wrist.

After confirming that this thing wouldn't invade his body, Chu Jiang was speechless. A token?

After hesitating for a moment, he didn't throw it away, but he also didn't put it on his hand. He simply took it off and temporarily put it into the space in his left hand.

"Well, I'm going to Japan. Is there anything you like? I'll bring it back for you," Chu Jiang said, pressing his phone.

"Cosmetics, sake, sweets, and wagashi," Chen Ke'er said thoughtfully.

“Okay,” Chu Jiang readily agreed.

"When will you be back?" Chen Ke'er asked cautiously.

"It won't be long, believe me."

"Ah."

Shortly after their conversation ended, the ghost taxi drove back on its own, and the car was completely empty.

This finally relieved Chu Jiang. He didn't know how the ghost bride got out of the car, but he had told the taxi driver to throw her as far away as possible.

Having resolved this potential threat, Chu Jiang returned to headquarters with Michiko, and also mentioned the upcoming trip to the island nation to her after she regained consciousness.

Michiko naturally agreed strongly, gesturing excitedly as she spoke.

However, after a busy day, it was already 2:30 a.m.

So Chu Jiang first informed headquarters about the ghost bride's whereabouts before booking his flight for tomorrow morning. He also told Michiko to go to bed early and wake up early, not to stay up late, to drink more milk, and to grow up quickly.

......

The following morning, in Tokyo, an island nation, inside a traditional samurai residence.

A young woman dressed in a kimono was kneeling on the tatami mat in front of the tea table, carefully grinding the green tea powder in her cup.

She was extremely beautiful, with fair skin and long hair tied up with an exquisite flower-shaped hair ornament; her expression was indifferent, and her clothes were mainly dark red, interspersed with purple, blue and white.

A wide silk sash was tied around her waist, and her hands moved with seriousness and devotion, as if she were not brewing tea, but rather immersed in some kind of Tao.

Opposite the woman in the kimono sat a withered old man. He wore a simple white robe, his eyes were slightly squinted, and he was so old that he had lost all his teeth and had hardly any white hair left.

After accepting the tea offered by the woman, the old man took a sip and said, "Harmony, Respect, Purity, Tranquility. Zaoxue, your tea ceremony has already surpassed your mother's."

The woman named Zao Xue simply nodded slightly.

Just then, light footsteps were heard outside, followed by a report from outside: "Miss Hayashi, that [Chu Jiang] has boarded the departing plane and is expected to arrive at Narita Airport in three hours."

"Okay, send someone to pick me up at the airport. I'll be there a little later. Let Uesugi handle this," the woman in the kimono said calmly.

"Yes!"

Chapter 379 The Three Families

After the subordinate who had delivered the message had left, the old man in the white robe looked at his granddaughter and asked, "What did the Uesugi family's daughter say?"

"She said she received a clear answer from our ancestors, and that Chu Jiang is a being of the 'god' level, urging us to seize this opportunity," the woman in the kimono replied softly.

The old man pondered for a moment, then said, "Then I'll let you do it. I'll make sure the entire Seireitei cooperates with you."

"By the way, you said you've met him. What kind of person do you think he is?"

The woman in the kimono calmly said, "I've only met him once. He was very cautious and calm."

"Hmm, do you think the Kujo family's scheme will succeed?"

The woman in the kimono shook her head slightly. "There's a high chance we'll end up badly hurt. But that might not be such a bad thing, though, because one of the three main families might become vacant." As she spoke, she gently blew on the green tea and took a sip.

"That's settled then, you can set off now."

"Yes, Grandpa." The woman in the kimono nodded, gently set down her teacup, stood up, and left the room like a precise and elegant doll.

.......

When Chu Jiang carried Michiko off the plane, many passengers looked at him with surprise, because it was rare to see a grown man traveling alone with a baby.

As soon as Chu Jiang entered the airport terminal, he saw a group of men in suits among the crowd of people waiting to greet him, holding up exaggerated and childish banners.

[The strongest in history! The demon god, supreme in heaven and earth! Captain Chu Jiang!]

The banner had colorful lettering, and Chu Jiang was so embarrassed by it that he couldn't speak after just one glance.

In front of a group of men in suits stood a man and a woman.

The young man was wearing a black trench coat and sunglasses; he looked rather handsome.

The young woman, dressed in a white archery uniform and a black hakama (traditional Japanese kimono) from the archery club, with her hair tied in a single ponytail, looked pure and lovely, with dimples on both sides of her face. At this moment, she was jumping around and excitedly waving towards the Chu River, shouting, "Here! Here!"

Her smile was infectious, revealing two cute little tiger teeth; most importantly, when she jumped, her remarkably large breasts jiggled up and down.

It's worth mentioning that the other party spoke Chinese, so Chu Jiang could understand without any cost.

Chu Jiang walked over with Michiko in his arms, expressionless. As he got closer, he realized that this girl, who appeared to be either a high school student or a college student, was about the same height and build as Xu Xiaoxiao, but she was exceptionally well-developed in certain aspects.

To be honest, Chu Jiang doesn't think she's suitable for the archery club. Is she sure she won't hit the strings when she plucks them?

The young man immediately stepped forward and bowed, "Captain of the 13th Division of Seireitei, Kazuya Uesugi, has come to greet Captain Chu!"
