Chapter 330: Chapter 332: Clinging to the Back

Su Nian was all smiles, but the chill in her tone was unmistakable.

[I really don’t get it. Does she have to have this guy? Does she have to have that good-for-nothing sleazeball?]

[What’s so great about a guy like this? She should just divorce him. It’s one thing that he has zero sense of responsibility, but now he’s putting on this pathetic act.]

[I bet you anything, he 100% heard that. He’s just too scared to go, so he pretended he didn’t hear anything. He just wants his wife to go for him.]

[What a disgusting creep!]

Hearing Su Nian’s words, a flash of defiance appeared in the man’s eyes.

He didn’t dare fight a ghost, but was he also scared of a delicate-looking woman like her?

But in the next second, he watched as Su Nian effortlessly broke off a corner of the table.

The table was made of solid, heavy wood, yet the woman before him had snapped it off with such ease.

A faint smile played on Su Nian’s lips, but her hand showed no sign of strain.

The man swallowed hard. He couldn’t help but reach out and try it himself.

Well, that settled it.

Forget breaking off a corner—he probably couldn’t even push the table if he tried.

He cautiously averted his gaze, pretending he hadn’t heard a thing. He didn’t dare look at Su Nian again.

Meanwhile, the wife watched her unresponsive husband, feeling as if her world was collapsing.

They had been married for some time. Although she knew he had many flaws, she had always thought he was at least a loyal and dependable person.

But now, after what Su Nian had said, she finally saw his true colors. Holding her child, she was filled with a furious energy.

"I’m going back to my mother’s house today!"

The woman was seething. At that moment, she couldn’t care about anything else. She had finally seen the light today.

This idiot was nothing but a weak, incompetent fool.

She had been completely fooled by his honest and sincere facade. In reality, underneath that exterior, he was nothing but a spineless loser!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became—furious at herself for wasting so much time on him.

’Thank god this Master woke me up,’ she thought. ’Otherwise, I really would have gone to apologize to those ghosts for him.’

’I didn’t do it, so why should I take the blame? It’s not like I’m raising another son.’

After the woman stormed off, the man grew angry too. He wanted to call her back, but when he opened his mouth, all that came out was nonsensical sputtering.

He looked at Su Nian, a flicker of rage in his eyes that he didn’t dare show.

’Forget it,’ he thought. ’This is someone who can snap a table with her bare hands. I definitely can’t win against her.’

He only dared to shoot Su Nian one vicious glare to vent his frustration, pretending he had gotten his revenge, before hastily running after his wife.

Watching the figures run out one after another, Su Nian wore a faint, mocking smile, a glint of coldness in her eyes.

This man was a complete coward. He would go looking for another Daoist later today.

He didn’t have the guts to face the trouble he’d caused and wanted someone else to help him, little knowing that the Daoist he would find was a complete fraud just out to scam people.

And the real ghost would be thoroughly enraged by him.

[Sigh, I don’t get it. Why did that end so abruptly?]

[I just think that guy is way too pathetic.]

[Sigh, he just left like that. He really didn’t listen to the host’s warning.]

[He doesn’t actually think he’s capable, does he? So he’s not planning to apologize to anyone? No way. What if the real ghost comes after him?]

Su Nian didn’t answer the viewers’ questions. Instead, she pressed a small bell.

This time, a familiar face walked in.

Dressed in a gray hoodie and a casual pair of jeans, she entered.

She looked to be in her early twenties, but her entire demeanor lacked any youthful vibrance.

Instead, she glanced around cautiously, only relaxing and striding forward after confirming it was Su Nian.

"Host! Heavenly Venerate! Master! It’s me!"

The girl rattled off three different titles, her eyes already welling up with tears.

Su Nian nodded. "Have a seat first and tell me what’s wrong."

The live comments started buzzing with discussion.

[Isn’t that the young woman who had a ghost standing by her bed?]

[I heard the ghost was someone who burned to death.]

[I remember now! This girl had a video call with the host yesterday.]

[Why does she look a little uglier on the host’s camera?]

[That’s a given. Haven’t you noticed? The host always uses her phone’s native camera, without any filters.]

[Just makes me marvel again at how beautiful the host is.]

The girl was panicking.

"Master, I went to the police station like you said, but I kept feeling that something was wrong. It felt like something was watching me the whole time."

As she spoke, she cautiously glanced behind her.

She didn’t know why, but even at the police station, she’d been filled with a sense of unease, as if someone was constantly staring at her.

But since it was a police station, she didn’t dare cause a scene and just forced herself to endure it.

As soon as it was daylight, she had rushed to take a car to find Su Nian, but she still ended up fourth in line.

Her voice was laced with obvious fear, and she scanned her surroundings as if worried that the ’thing’ was lurking nearby.

Su Nian raised an eyebrow slightly, looking her up and down.

She didn’t see anything suspicious. But seeing the girl’s terror, ’perhaps there’s something to it?’

Su Nian asked, "Were you at the police station the entire time yesterday? Did you run into anyone strange?"

Logically speaking, a police station is full of righteous energy. How could a ghost possibly get in?

’Could it be that this girl is just too timid?’

"I really stayed there the whole time, but I don’t know why, I just felt cold all over. Host, I’m so scared!"

She kept glancing around timidly as she spoke.

Her frightened expression made it seem like danger could strike her at any moment.

Su Nian studied her from top to bottom but still saw nothing. ’Could it be that the girl is just traumatized?’

’Wrong!’

Su Nian’s brow furrowed again. Her nose seemed to catch a faint, burnt odor. This was definitely not normal! 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

[Why hasn’t the host said anything for a while?]

[Maybe she’s thinking. The host is often like this. But her hands aren’t doing any calculations. I think she’s looking at something?]

[Oh, come on, don’t be so paranoid. The host is so powerful, you think a ghost could harm her?]

In the next second, Su Nian’s frown deepened. She was certain that the burnt smell she detected was real.

"Turn around!"

Su Nian’s voice was grave. The girl, looking puzzled, carefully turned. And in the instant she did...

...a figure clinging to her back, its limbs tightly wrapped around hers, suddenly appeared!

It was a pitch-black person, like a shadow, attached to the girl’s back. It clung to her tightly, like a dense net, trapping her securely.

Now, the girl had her back to Su Nian, and the shadow-like ghost had turned as well.

As if it sensed Su Nian’s gaze, it actually turned its head slowly and grinned at her.

Its mouth stretched impossibly wide, taking up almost half of its face, its lower lip hanging so low it nearly touched its neck.

It bared deathly pale teeth and an extremely long tongue, looking at Su Nian with a greedy smile.

Clinging so tightly to the girl’s body... even Su Nian, who had seen her fair share of things, couldn’t help but be startled.

The viewers in the livestream, however, completely lost it.

[Ghosts can appear in broad daylight now!!??]

[You guys won’t believe this! I was on the toilet, and it scared me so bad I threw my phone!]

[Great. I was already constipated, and now I’m definitely not pooping.]

[I’m alone in the bathroom, and I keep feeling like there’s a ghost like that clinging to the walls in here!!]

[Oh my god, I can’t even breathe. This is too terrifying! What kind of ghost just clings to a person’s body like that?]

[Doesn’t this get scarier the more you think about it? The girl said that ever since last night at the police station, she felt like someone was watching her. Could it be that this ghost has been clinging to her back since last night?!]

The Pitch Black Ghost stretched its mouth into a triumphant grin.

But then it saw the woman before it slowly curve her lips into a smile as well, revealing eight perfectly white teeth...
