What if you were targeted by a cool and aloof beauty?

Jiuge exhaled, and a white ball of light appeared in her hand.

She instinctively trembled and tried to stand up to see what was going on, but An Chen held her down.

The door creaked and groaned, and although it wasn't actually opened, An Chen and Jiu Ge heard a sound similar to a lock being opened.

Not long after, the wind stopped.

A strange suona sound followed.

Just like the paper sedan incident involving Hua Zi, a large sedan chair with exquisite ancient style suddenly appeared at the entrance of the apartment building.

This time, however, An Chen did not burn those strange spirit coins.

The suona music stopped, and the sedan chair bearers appeared beside the sedan chair.

There were ten sedan chair carriers in front and behind the sedan chair, all dressed in ancient attire.

They varied in height and build, all wore black hats, and had expressionless faces.

Jiuge turned her head to look, her face growing even paler.

An Chen patted Jiu Ge on the shoulder, then stood up.

"May I ask who you are?" he asked with a smile.

Such a grand display, managing to evade Zhang Zhidong at the community entrance without a sound, and with such a lavish entrance, suggests that what they brought must be extraordinary.

"An Chen?"

Jiuge tugged at An Chen's sleeve and stood up as well.

Although she had rarely dealt with spirits in this way before, she could tell from just one glance that something was wrong.

After accepting the current situation, Jiuge calmed down.

If the creature that appears is not benevolent, she will purify it on the spot.

Milk Candy darted out from under the sofa and then darted up to the second floor.

It hopped open An Chen's room door and scrambled inside, making a lot of noise.

When it came in, it even closed the door with its paws.

"It's alright, don't be nervous, it's not a big problem." An Chen said gently, glancing at Jiu Ge behind him.

As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain of the car was lifted, and a woman with a gentle and charming appearance, dressed in red ancient costume, peeked out.

"Please go back." She stretched out her arm and waved the handkerchief in her hand.

The ten sedan bearers disappeared, the sedan chair disappeared with them, and the handkerchief in the woman's hand also disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, the woman, whose entire body was exposed, bowed to An Chen and then to Jiu Ge. "Your Excellency An Chen, Madam An, my daughter is a spirit from the Red Mandarin Duck Temple. I have come here today without permission because I have a request."

"Are you the spirit from the Red Mandarin Duck Temple... the one who grants everyone's wishes?" An Chen roughly understood the situation before him.

Judging from the woman's attire and entourage, she must have been a wealthy young lady from several hundred years ago.

With strong combat power and high spiritual ability, he is respected and has many followers. He is also quite spiritual. Therefore, when An Chen and Jiu Ge drew lots, he sensed An Chen's approximate identity.

"Madam An?" Jiu Ge's face flushed red and then turned pale, her mouth slightly open, as if she was thinking about something.

"That is I," the woman said, bowing slightly.

"Your Excellency An Chen, I have received your wish and will do my best to fulfill it for you." She looked at An Chen with affection in her eyes.

"..." Jiuge stood straight, motionless, her face cold and stern, still hesitating whether or not to throw a ball of light at him.

"Madam An, please don't be angry. I know that if I were to fight against the two heroes, Lord An Chen and Madam An, I would most likely not fare well." The woman then looked at Jiu Ge with tender affection.

That day, while hiding in the Red Mandarin Duck Temple, she sensed the presence of An Chen and Jiu Ge and concluded that the two were extraordinary individuals with exceptional abilities.

That's why the woman had the idea of ​​asking them for help.

An Chen remained silent.

"..." Jiuge stayed in Bengbu.

"I have a favor to ask of you." With that, the woman simply sat down on the ground, tears welling in her eyes.

“I refuse…” An Chen answered without even thinking.

Knight Xu's wish was merely a desperate attempt after being pimped out; if it came true, great, but if it didn't, there was no loss.

Even online sources know that fulfilling a wish might lead to bizarre dreams, and even strange side effects in the future.

An Chen didn't think that a spirit that would do such a thing was a truly good person.

"..." Jiuge stood to the side, arms crossed, motionless, her gaze cold.

"Waaaaah... I know that Lord An Chen and Madam An are worried that I might appear in your dreams in the middle of the night to scare you. I promise I won't do anything that is immoral, frightening, mentally disturbing, or that will be punished by heaven." After saying this in a sobbing tone, the woman really started to burst into tears.

That sight was enough to make both men and women weep.

Those who see it are heartbroken, and those who hear it weep.

If two other people were here, seeing a gentle and beautiful woman shed tears, they would probably have softened their hearts long ago. But An Chen and Jiu Ge are not ordinary people.

“…It’s okay if you come to my dreams.” An Chen thought for a moment and said.

"?" The woman stopped crying.

"?" Jiu Ge's face was serious as she looked at An Chen with a suspicious gaze.

"Anyway, I guess you won't dare to come a second time after coming once." An Chen smiled gently.

The woman suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Logically, she should be the one in danger, but now she's panicking.

Jiuge resumed her poker face.

Taking a breath to calm herself, she walked to the window, opened the curtains, and turned on the light.

Regardless of whether it's some kind of powerful ghost or monster, it's really infuriating to turn a cozy apartment into such a gloomy and terrifying place in broad daylight.

The light is on, but it's not very bright.

The sunlight shone in from outside.

Although the TV, laptop, and mobile phone haven't been restored yet, the room has finally returned to its normal, bright and airy state.

Now, looking at the stunningly beautiful ancient girl sitting on the ground, Jiuge was finally less alarmed.

Like many sensational horror TV shows.

The horror lies not so much in the content itself, but in the atmosphere, the lighting, the eerie background music, and the voice acting.

The same video, if the lights are turned up, the sound is muted, and then festive music like "Wishing You Prosperity" or "Happy New Year" played throughout China during the Lunar New Year is added, can be directly transferred from the underworld to the world of the living.

At that moment, Jiuge had a flash of inspiration and took advantage of this principle.

When watching horror movies, she found that as long as she snuggled into An Chen's arms during scary scenes, it wasn't so scary anymore.

Therefore, Jiuge has taken such action now.

Not only that, she also made a gesture of clasping her hands together while basking in the sunlight.

"Pfft..." An Chen couldn't help but laugh again.

"..." The woman froze.

She was embarrassed, extremely embarrassed, more embarrassed than she had been in centuries.

Chapter 122 The Lament of the Master of the Red Mandarin Duck Temple

As if she still wasn't at ease, Jiuge took out her phone again.

Although there was little signal in the apartment because of the visit of the ancient woman, she was fortunate to have cached that magical video beforehand.

As the music started, all the eerie and terrifying atmosphere in the room vanished in an instant.

The eerie wind was gone, the grayish hues were gone, the atmosphere of the underworld was gone, and the woman's refined and elegant demeanor was gone.

The woman who had fallen to the ground had tears welling up in her eyes again, and with a loud "Aww," she began to cry loudly.

Not only was she embarrassed, the woman also felt humiliated.

She had lived in the Red Mandarin Duck Temple for hundreds of years and had never suffered such injustice.

The video was accompanied by the song "I'm really good! Really good! I'm really, really, really good!" playing from Jiuge's phone.

The contrast between the two images makes the woman in ancient costume crying hysterically look extremely comical.

The entire apartment was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Now that she was dating An Chen, Jiu Ge decided not to hide these trivial matters anymore.

An Chen would definitely understand her actions, as it was just a strange song played to "ward off evil spirits" and "overcome psychological barriers."

An Chen took a deep breath, trying his best not to laugh out loud.

Jiuge sat down on the sofa with a natural and calm expression, and even started making tea.

"My daughter fulfills their wish for marriage. Although it makes them have those kinds of dreams, it only means she absorbs some of their yang energy to help herself grow stronger and maintain herself... Once they break up or their wish expires, they will stop having those kinds of dreams..." The woman cried as she wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.

Perhaps she truly believed that even if she summoned a spirit, it wouldn't be enough to defeat Lord Anchen Jiuge, so she didn't call for help.

"Mm." An Chen nodded and listened.

Without saying anything, she sat down next to Jiu Ge with a blank expression.

The music of "I'm Really Not Bad" was still playing, and no matter what the woman in front of him said or did, he couldn't seem to get serious.

Jiuge suddenly discovered a new way to overcome her fear of spirits.

"My name is Meng Ninghua. I am from Suzhou, and my family is a family of officials. We have always been dedicated to serving the people and have accumulated countless merits. Unfortunately, I died young from poisoning by evil people. After my soul came to the Red Mandarin Duck Temple, I devoted myself to helping people and accumulated a lot of merits. Over time, I settled down in the temple and built up a lot of connections. I have been doing business helping people to gain followers and exchanging some yang energy in return." Meng Ninghua sobbed as she recounted her story.

"Wait...did you just say that wishes would fail?" An Chen only realized what Meng Ninghua had said after she finished introducing herself.

It's no wonder An Chen wasn't listening carefully; that song, "I'm Really Not Bad," was just too catchy and attention-grabbing.

"If you don't want it to expire, I can extend it for you once it takes effect..." The woman looked up and stopped crying.

"Okay, then let's continue with it then."

An Chen nodded.
