This villain has become a ghost

Nangong Mingzhu smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment."

Having lived his life over again, he has long become indifferent to life and death.

But there is a girl whose mission is to keep him alive and well. If she harms him... she has to cherish her life.

Yue Liuyun sorted out the information in his head, then glanced at him, crossed his arms and asked, "What else is there to hide from me? Tell me now."

Nangong Mingzhu raised three fingers and swore, his eyes sincere as he said, "Heaven can bear witness, there really is no more."

Yue Liuyun reluctantly believed him.

She and Qiu Shuangwan had read the original book compiled by Jing Tan. Nangong Mingzhu was a reborn person. Nangong Wanqing had been struggling in this world, and her scheming and strategy were not inferior to those natives...

Obviously, this configuration is not weak, but she always feels that the road ahead will not be so easy, or even... it will be difficult.

Due to the butterfly effect, the current plot is like a wild horse running wildly, and it is impossible to predict what will happen in the next second.

She just thought she was an ordinary person, but she never expected that one day, such a childish thing as saving the world would fall on her.

China has a population of 1.4 billion. Even if she is a genius picked out of ten thousand, there are still 140,000 people like her.

But she happened to come here.

Tsk, why can't the system be a little more powerful? Give her a super serum, high technology or some powerful rays or something.

It would be fine if she couldn't do that, but she also became a ghost.

The rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation, and she actually relies on out-of-body experience.

Ghosts saving the world, how funny it sounds.

Nangong Mingzhu stared at her in the quiet night, just like the countless conversations in the past, normal and peaceful.

He should have been an arrogant emperor, but at this moment he acted like an ordinary person and said seriously:

"Whatever happens, I will face it with you. We are one."

True unity.

He didn't know when it started, but he was learning to communicate with her using her world's way of thinking, and he also learned a lot of words from her that he originally didn't understand.

Throwing aside the class concepts of this world, she didn't feel the slightest bit of disobedience. She even felt... a rare warmth from this native.

He has a strong learning ability.

He can be so patient with a lonely soul from another world, and he seems to be a good person...

A different emotion emerged in Yue Liuyun's heart.

These unspoken, subconscious details are what make people feel the warmest.

If the system had really gone perfectly smoothly, and I had taken over Nangong Mingzhu's body, and his soul had been temporarily taken away by destiny, and I had occupied this body alone, it would seem... quite boring.

In this lonely and long night, it doesn’t seem like a bad thing to have someone to accompany me.

Although we were wary at the beginning, we now realize that this coincidence is also a good thing.

He had such a miserable childhood in such a dark and heavy environment. Although it had a certain impact on his character, he did not become twisted and evil, seek revenge on society, or doubt life. Instead, he maintained a sincerity deep in his heart.

Flowers can also grow in mud and swamps.

Fortunately... he was a nice guy.

She whispered: "Thank you."

Fortunately, it's you... and not someone else.

Nangong Mingzhu felt inexplicably happy when he heard this very subtle and light thank you, but a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes.

He said softly, "My intuition tells me that it won't be long before the situation in Dongdu... changes."

Yue Liuyun frowned and said nothing.

She also knew that this apparent calm could not last long.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see Nangong Mingzhu's current physical condition. Although the poisoning by Queen Zhou was concealed, anyone with ulterior motives would find out and it would not be concealed for long.

The leakage of information always happens much faster than it is blocked.

The emperor's serious illness will become a fuse, causing those who are ready to make moves to tear off their disguises and reveal their ambitions.

Yue Liuyun sighed and said, "It might not be a bad thing, but... it's really dangerous."

"Worried about me?" Nangong Mingzhu raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Yue Liuyun chuckled and said, "Can't I just worry about myself?"

Nangong Mingzhu sighed, "How cruel..."

"...But so far, nothing serious has happened to me, so I'm more worried about you." Yue Liuyun added.

Nangong Mingzhu stared at her with burning eyes.

This time, it was Yue Liuyun who looked away first.

She said uncomfortably, "It's getting late, go get some rest."

There will be another tough battle to fight soon.

Nangong Mingzhu was wearing a purple-black fox fur coat. His face and lips were pale, but there was a gleam in his dark eyes. His long hair was spread out like thick ink, making the surroundings seem deserted.

His voice was slightly hoarse, and he spoke softly, as if in a request, "Could you... come over here a little?"

Yue Liuyun said: "I'm just a ghost, what do you want to do?"

He lowered his long eyelashes, his eyes showing an unconcealable loss, and his frail appearance made him look particularly pitiful.

He covered his lips and coughed a few times, leaving blood stains on his knuckles.

Yue Liuyun was shocked. Is it already... so serious?

Can we hold on until... Jingtan finds a solution?

Without hesitation, she slowly floated to his side and sighed, "You're making me even more worried."

Nangong Mingzhu ignored the blood on his fingertips, stood up, and the fox fur coat draped over his shoulders fell off.

He lowered his head and looked at her, his eyes as deep as ink. He raised his hand slightly and touched her outline through the void.

Yue Liuyun's pupils constricted, his breath stopped, and the face of the young man in front of him gradually enlarged.

Nangong Mingzhu slowly approached her, leaned down, and bent slightly. His pale lips reached her forehead and gently placed a kiss through the air. There was no feeling at all... a kiss without any touch.

Everything seems to be empty, absurd, yet extremely real.

Nangong Mingzhu took a measured step back and said softly, "It's just a soul form, and it's only on the forehead. So... it's not too offensive, right?"

Yue Liuyun didn't know how to react. He should have been annoyed and upset, but he wasn't at all... And in his heart, a wave of dense sadness surged up.

What else is not understood?

All those suspicions and doubts were shattered, and that uncertain answer... became a reality.

But clearly nothing has happened yet, so why does it feel like... a life-or-death separation?

Her throat choked and she was speechless for a moment. She stood there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.

The dim lights were extinguished by the night, and Nangong Mingzhu's figure seemed to be swallowed up by the pitch-black night. His voice was hoarse and low as he slowly said, "...Good night."
