The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Chapter 326: Goodbye, Sister-in-law

In the estate of the Li family, Li Muyang sat under the eaves, quietly watching the lotus flowers in the pond within the pavilion.

The Li family originally had only a small, standalone courtyard, and by virtue of Li Damu’s government position, they barely maintained a modest family business in Jiuyuan City, not considered among the elite.

But as Li Muyang’s status in the Refinement Demon Sect soared, the Li Damu couple also started to enjoy better days.

This estate was a gift from the Qin family of Tianjiao City.

Tianjiao City was not far from Jiuyuan City, and the turmoil there had almost spread to Jiuyuan City at one point.

And within Tianjiao City, the Qin family was a true noble clan with substantial influence in the Refinement Demon Sect.

Although the Qin family was also affected during the Blood Lotus Sect’s upheaval, it was merely a flesh wound.

Following the downfall of the Blood Lotus Sect, the Qin family of Tianjiao City quickly regained their power.

The first thing they did was send people to Jiuyuan City, two thousand li away, to deliver the estate.

It was both to curry favor with Li Muyang, who was soon to be promoted to a Direct Disciple as a done deal, and to express gratitude for his care during his undercover period in the Blood Lotus Sect.

Although Li Muyang had not intentionally set out to rescue members of the Qin family, his fierce deeds on the streets outside the Sin Alley, standing up to the half-demons of Liehai Hall in anger and killing in public, definitely intimidated many cultists within the Blood Lotus Sect.

So much so that after that standoff, the lives of the female cultivators detained in Sin Alley improved significantly, with almost no one daring to bully them anymore.

Therefore, after the chaos of the Blood Lotus Sect ended, many large families within Tianjiao City came to Jiuyuan City to offer money and land.

The Li family, which had an ordinary background, suddenly leapfrogged to become the wealthiest family in Jiuyuan City.

And now, Li Muyang was sitting in his new estate, staring blankly at the lotus pond in the courtyard.

The Magic Artifact made of flesh and bone had already been placed underground by him, and he was currently waiting for its effects to activate.

As for this trip home, to be honest, it was even more relaxed than he had imagined.

Li Damu and his wife were extremely courteous and cautious around him, not daring to utter even a single nagging word.

The situation Li Muyang had worried about never occurred.

Since that was the case, he was happy to enjoy the leisure.

After yesterday’s banquet, he closed himself off in a separate courtyard, refusing all social calls from relatives and friends.

Social niceties?

Li Muyang didn’t care about them.

In any case, with Li Yuechan, his nominal little sister who was skillful and highly emotionally intelligent to keep their parents company and deal with relatives, that was enough.

But at this moment, a cold gust of wind suddenly swept through the courtyard.

The girl sighed, "I was indeed roaming around, this world is full of wonders, so fascinating and interesting."

"Although I have no physical body and miss out on many joys, it’s precisely because I have no physical body that I can sneak into places living people can’t easily access."

"And so, I stumbled upon a conspiracy specifically targeting you."

The ghost girl spoke, her expression suddenly becoming dramatically grim, as if she were telling a horror story with vivid detail.

"It was a dark and windy night, I was resting at a place filled with the gloomy energy of earth veins when suddenly I saw several dark figures hurriedly gathering."

"Those figures, all bizarre and tremendously powerful."

"They were secretly plotting, planning to take advantage of the opportunity while you, the Refinement Demon Sect genius, were returning home to visit your family, to strike in Jiuyuan City to harm you!"

The ghost girl spoke with exaggerated emphasis.

As soon as Li Muyang heard this, he knew there was a lot of exaggeration in her words.

If they were truly that powerful, could you, a wandering ghost, stay nearby and eavesdrop?

He looked at the girl’s performance with a calm face and said, "So, you came all this way just to warn me, to remind me to be aware of the danger... right?"

"Hehe... you saw through it all, brother-in-law," the girl said, scratching her head sheepishly, chuckling, "You’re really clever, brother-in-law."

Li Muyang rolled his eyes and asked, "So, what’s the background of that group of people? Which sect or faction are they from?"

The ghost girl blinked and shook her head, "I don’t know."

"When are they coming?"

Again, the girl shook her head, looking innocent, "I don’t know."

"Then what do you know?"

"I know they’re coming to kill you."

"You..."

Li Muyang was left speechless.

This ghost girl, as always, was unreliable.

A lot of blabbering, and when it came to the most crucial information, she knew nothing.

But just as Li Muyang was speechless, the ghost girl blurted out an important piece of information.

"I only know that those people said, after killing you, they’d see what’s on you."

"They seem to be looking for the soul of an ancient Corpse Immortal, saying that the soul might be lodged in someone within the Refinement Demon Sect, and there have been signs of the Corpse Immortal’s activity near the sect."

"And you, brother-in-law, seem to fit the scenario of being possessed by the Corpse Immortal."
