After being reborn, she went on a killing spree in both the Yin and Yang realms.

From the moment she made that boast until now, Lu Boqing hasn't said a word, just stood there quietly, like a statue.

She suddenly had a bad feeling. Would he just abandon her now?

"Qingqing?"

"What should we do next? The Painted Skin Ghost can't stay here any longer. Is there any way to make her temporarily avoid the Soul Reaper? It won't be long. Once they're together and settled in the Underworld, we'll have accomplished our mission."

Lu Boqing was speechless.

"Where do you get the confidence to let them settle in the Underworld?"

"Isn't it just you here? It's just a matter of registering a household. Isn't the school heartthrob already settled in the underworld? They can just get a marriage certificate, and the painted-skin ghost can be registered in the school heartthrob's household register, right?"

Lu Boqing's temples throbbed with pain.

Even the wildest ideas aren't as open-minded as hers!

Lu Boqing adjusted his breathing, trying his best not to let the idiot affect his emotions.

"Open the 'Ghostly Scribe' and search for hidden ghostly energy."

Ling Yue knew Lu Boqing would definitely have a solution!

I hurriedly took out my phone and followed his instructions, and I actually found it!

To conceal the ghostly aura, you need to buy a potion; drinking it will conceal the ghostly aura for seven days.

It's only valid for seven days...

Ling Yue added it to her shopping cart, then looked at the price and felt a pang of pain...

It requires fifty merits to purchase!

Ling Yue hesitated on the checkout page.

Lu Boqing couldn't help but tease, "What? You're reluctant to part with it? That person just now swore that I would definitely help you fulfill your wishes!"

"How long has it been? And you're already getting slapped in the face?"

Ling Yue gritted her teeth, stomped her foot, steeled her heart, and clicked to confirm payment.

A moment later, the bottle of medicine appeared in front of Ling Yue.

She reached out and gently took it in her hand. This thing was so small and light, enough for at most two bites.

Profiteer!

Without much thought, Ling Yue handed the medicine bottle to the Painted Skin Ghost, saying, "Take this medicine to hide your ghostly aura. It's only effective for seven days, so you'd better not wander around during those seven days."

The painted-skin ghost now trusted Ling Yue completely. She opened the medicine bottle and poured it into her mouth without the slightest hesitation.

Ling Yue then instructed Su Shiming and Chu Xin to look after the Painted Skin Ghost, as she needed to go to the Underworld with Lu Boqing again.

Chu Xin looked at Ling Yue with some worry and said awkwardly, "Don't be reckless. Do your best and leave the rest to fate."

Ling Yue rarely saw Chu Xin speak to her like this; in the past, Chu Xin was usually incredibly harsh. These caring words warmed her heart.

She laughed heartlessly and replied, "Don't worry, I'll definitely handle this perfectly!"

Lu Boqing returned to the Underworld with the school heartthrob and Ling Yue.

Afterwards, they told the school heartthrob to go to work without worry, and that they would take care of the rest.

After making arrangements for the school heartthrob, only he and Ling Yue remained.

Only then did he scold, "Ling Yue! Look at how much progress you've made along the way! You've relied on this or that, but what have you actually accomplished?"

"The greatest ignorance a person can have is not having a clear understanding of themselves."

"We've been partners for so long, and you're still so reckless and impulsive, never thinking things through. Sooner or later, you'll be the one who suffers!"

Ling Yue was stunned on the spot by Lu Boqing's shout.

Having known him for so long, she had never seen Lu Boqing lose his temper like this before. Apart from being a bit sharp-tongued, he had always had a very good temper.

Is she just being naive this time?

She just felt that the Painted Skin Ghost and the school heartthrob had gone through so much trouble, and even though they were separated by life and death, they still hadn't forgotten each other. This was such a precious feeling, shouldn't we help them?

Ling Yue also reflected on herself, and indeed, as Lu Boqing said, she hadn't made any progress, but she really had been trying...

Even Jia Zhengjing praised her for her talent, saying that she would soon be able to comprehend the Five Elements Escape Technique. She has a long life ahead of her, so why is he so sure that he will not achieve anything in the future?

Ling Yue felt increasingly aggrieved, especially since so much had happened during this time; she had barely had a moment to rest.

She's under a lot of pressure too...

Then she thought of Jing Yucheng, who was still unconscious after saving her, and how she, who kept saying she would avenge Wang Yuanyuan, had yet to have the ability to do so...

Overwhelmed with thoughts, Ling Yue's tears fell uncontrollably like beads from a broken string.

Lu Boqing noticed that she kept her head down and didn't speak. Was she refusing to communicate?

He really is a hopeless case!

Slightly annoyed, he pushed her, "Say something!"

Only after pushing her did I realize that she was silently shedding tears...

Suddenly at a loss, "Hey!"

"Why are you crying? Only the weak shed tears."

These words completely shattered Ling Yue's psychological defenses.

He raised his head and roared, "I was always the weak one!"

Then, what started as silent tears turned into loud sobbing...

This was still on the main street of the Underworld, where ghosts came and went, drawing everyone's attention.

Lu Boqing didn't dare say another word, afraid that if he said another, this guy might go crazy in the street...

"You're out on the street, so watch your image. Let's go back to my office first; this matter needs to be discussed more carefully."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yue felt there was still hope!

She immediately wiped away her tears and followed behind Lu Boqing, trying to jog to keep up with his pace.

All the way to Lu Boqing's office, Ling Yue kept her head down as much as possible to minimize her presence.

Her existence, a bug in the system, is practically famous throughout the entire Underworld.

Lu Boqing pondered the matter repeatedly, but still couldn't find a feasible solution.

"Leaving aside the underworld, even in your mortal world, everyone must abide by the law, right?"

"The painted-skin ghost's behavior is tantamount to that of a fugitive. That alone makes it impossible to justify it anywhere!"

Ling Yue could see Lu Boqing's dilemma. She had considered this before coming. The Painted Skin Ghost's behavior violated the relevant regulations, but she did have her reasons and had not done anything immoral. She had even accumulated merit during her time in the mortal world.

This is a completely special case, so it should be handled as a special case.

"Can't you even reason with your father?"

Lu Boqing shook his head slightly. "The legal system is not under his jurisdiction; he is responsible for people's livelihood."

"Then who's in charge of the legal system? There has to be a place to seek justice, right?"

Lu Boqing frowned, a rare occurrence, and pondered for a long time.

"follow me."
