This woman seemed to have used all her strength to force a smile.

"I'm looking for someone."

Now there's only one guest left in the entire Ghostly Human World—Zhang Chuchu, sitting in the corner.

Chu Xin and Su Shiming immediately became alert.

"Seventeen, Sister Jun, Ningxia, Master Chen, you can go home now. We'll take care of the rest of the guests. See you tomorrow."

Ling Yue gave everyone a briefing, and Su Shiming understood, quickly stepping forward to greet the older woman.

"Sister, what would you like to drink?"

Seventeen led the others out of the Ghostly Realm quickly. Everyone had worry in their eyes, but they didn't linger, knowing that they couldn't help with what was to come.

At this moment, only Ling Yue, Chu Xin, Su Shiming, Zhang Chuchu, and the older sister who came to find her remained in the Ghostly Human Realm.

The lights inside the store flickered, creating an eerie atmosphere.

"I told you, I'm looking for someone."

The older sister's face gradually began to contort, but she didn't seem to be able to control her facial expressions. She looked like she had a crooked mouth and slanted eyes, and an ordinary person would probably scream in shock if they saw her.

"You must be the legendary Painted Skin Ghost. Being easily angered is bad for your health. Why don't we sit down, have a drink, and chat?"

From the moment she appeared in the Ghost Realm, Ling Yue had already seen the blue halo around "her".

Painted Skin Demon, Level 3.

When Ling Yue saw through this woman's disguise, her entire face became paralyzed.

"How did you..."

"Don't worry, we live in a peaceful era now. We can negotiate amicably about anything."

What happened to Zhang Chuchu's face?

"Hahaha, what? Are you waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump, or catching a turtle in a jar?"

Su Shiming stepped forward and joked, "How can it be called 'catching a turtle in a jar'? The positioning is not accurate enough; it's clearly 'catching a ghost in a jar'."

As soon as Su Shiming finished speaking, he felt a tightness in his neck, and the pain spread throughout his body, making it difficult to breathe.

The Painted Skin Demon was incredibly fast and strong. By the time Chu Xin and Ling Yue reacted, Su Shiming had already been firmly gripped by the neck.

"You think you're so good at talking? Go ahead and say something!"

Ling Yue didn't have time to think and rushed over to kick the "big sister". The kick was powerful, but she easily dodged it.

Taking advantage of her momentary lapse in attention, Chu Xin slapped the talisman in her hand onto the back of her elder sister. Only then did she let out a painful roar and release her grip on Su Shiming's neck.

The man was clearly in pain and gasping for breath, but he suddenly burst into laughter again.

"Hahahaha, come on, you'd better kill me today, but as for Zhang Chuchu... hahahahaha!"

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Ling Yue quickly advised, "Hey, hey, hey, it's not that serious. As the saying goes, harmony brings wealth. Zhang Chuchu, who you are looking for, is right there. Let's sit down and talk calmly."

"Let's offer this lady a glass of water."

"please sit down."

Ling Yue invited "Big Sister" to Zhang Chuchu's booth, and then Su Shiming followed angrily over. Chu Xin brought over a glass of lemonade.

"The Painted Skin Demon? Your purpose in coming here isn't to kill Zhang Chuchu, is it?"

Ling Yue got straight to the point.

When Zhang Chuchu saw them fighting, she was almost scared to death. When she saw the powerful, expressionless woman walking towards her, she was so frightened that she stood up, but she couldn't move her legs and could only tremble all over...

The "elder sister" rolled her eyes and tried to look Ling Yue up and down, but she couldn't see any real strength in her. Why wasn't she afraid of her at all?

Could he be some kind of hidden big shot?

The "elder sister" took the cup of lemon tea and looked at Chu Xin suspiciously.

"Don't worry, it's just regular lemonade. Besides, it's a ghost, what's there to be afraid of poisoning?"

The "elder sister" took a sip of water dismissively and said awkwardly, "I'm just doing my job for my employer."

"What's the meaning……"

Ling Yue felt like she had discovered a new continent after hearing this. Ghosts can also pick up passengers in the human world?

"The woman you see here nourishes me with her life essence every day, and she even voluntarily lent me her face so that I could do something for her."

"Otherwise, why do you think I've been able to survive in the human world for so long?"

This painted-skin ghost is quite honest.

"I don't know the specifics of what made her hate Zhang Chuchu so much. If you're really interested, you can ask her directly."

Just as Ling Yue was about to ask how to communicate with her elder sister, the painted-skin ghost instantly detached from her elder sister's body and floated out.

Even though Ling Yue had seen many ghosts, she was still quite startled by the painted-skin ghost in front of her. The painted-skin ghost really had no face!

His entire face was a large, bottomless black hole.

Ling Yue, who wanted to find out more, was suddenly stopped by the Painted Skin Ghost.

"The last Taoist priest who wanted to examine my face out of curiosity is dead, you're sure you still want to see it?"

Ling Yue instinctively shook her head and obediently straightened her posture.

The eldest sister, who had been slumped over like a dead woman, soon perked up.

"This is where?"

That one question stumped everyone present...

How the hell is this supposed to be explained? This demon didn't even give the older woman a heads-up beforehand...

When the woman saw Zhang Chuchu, she walked up to her and unceremoniously ripped off the scarf from her head.

"It's you?!"

He then let out a hearty laugh, a laugh that sounded like he had finally gotten his revenge.

"Hahaha, you've finally gotten your comeuppance!"

Looking at the lunatic in front of her, Zhang Chuchu thought of getting up and battling this old woman.

Unfortunately, he still couldn't move an inch of his body.

"You seduced my husband with this face, didn't you? I wonder what he thinks of your face now, hahahahahaha."

When the older sister saw that Zhang Chuchu didn't give any response for a long time, she thought that the little brat was pretending not to understand!

"Don't play dumb in front of me, Chen Lei. You can't be unaware, can you? Didn't you go to great lengths to sleep with him a while ago? That bastard is my husband!"

Ling Yue, Chu Xin, and Su Shiming all said in unison, "I see..."

"Come on, ma'am, what would you like to drink? It's free!"

Su Shiming planned to give this older sister a warm welcome. He understood the drama of the wife beating the mistress, and he needed to have a drink to calm her down, right?

"Sister, look, this is karma coming back to bite you. You should be happy. Don't get angry over someone like that, it's not worth it."

Ling Yue quickly stepped forward and invited her to sit down again.
