Chapter 13 Lanruo Temple

Very quickly, I arrived at the entrance of the temple.

There were three words written on the broken wooden door of the temple, "Orchid Ruo Temple!"

"Lan Ruo Temple, why does this name sound so familiar?" I thought to myself.

"Ghost Princess, I've finally waited for you!" A woman's voice rang out. It sounded extremely cold and arrogant.

"Who are you?"

"Don't you remember me? Ruo Lan!" Her figure slowly flashed through the crack in the door.

Ruo Lan? Why does this name sound so familiar? Who is she?

As I struggled to think back, the jade bracelet flashed and I fell into an illusion.

Inside the boudoir, a woman was slowly dressing up, but Ming Jiu suddenly appeared behind her and hugged her waist.

"Ruo Lan!" He couldn't wait to do anything to her.

"Wang, stop messing around! It's not good for the princess to see it!" The woman said coquettishly, but she did not push away the hand that the Ghost King had placed on her.

"What? Are you still afraid of her?" Ming Jiu said with a smile.

"I'm not afraid. In her eyes, I'm just a lowly servant. With a single move of her finger, I'm afraid this servant will never see you again!" The woman said with self-pity.

Mingjiu happened to have such a little girl's affection. She immediately felt compassion. She took out a black pearl from her bosom and stuffed it into the woman's hand. She comforted, "Take it, no one will dare to bully you with it in the future!"

The woman took the pearl and immediately broke into tears and smiled. She said coquettishly in Ming Jiu's arms, "My master, I, Ruo Lan, am willing to follow you forever."

Ming Jiu happily hugged her in his arms and walked towards the bed.

Everything in the scene, I saw my own figure. Within the cold hall, there was a soul flame burning. Looking at the woman kneeling before me, this woman was Ruo Lan.

"Do you know your sin?" I said coldly to the woman in front of me.

"Princess, what is this servant guilty of?" Ruo Lan deliberately pretended to be confused.

"Aren't you guilty of seducing the Ghost King and having an affair with him? Did I keep you by my side to make you do this kind of thing?" I crushed her with a frosty tone.

But Ruo Lan didn't say anything, as if she didn't listen to me at all.

"Speak!" I was so angry that my entire body was trembling. This kind of betrayal was truly too unacceptable.

"This servant has said everything I need to say!" Ruo Lan's face did not show the slightest bit of fear.

"Alright, then I'll fulfill your wish!" I said hatefully.

However, Ruo Lan took out the pearl that made me feel despair after taking out it from her bosom for a long time.

This pearl belongs to Ming Jiu. I know what it means.

Ming Jiu once told me that if I were to lose my temper, he would want me to treat him better, but only if there was something to remind him.

I gave the Buddhist beads I took from the Ghost Temple to Ming Jiu and told him that as long as he took out the Buddhist beads when I lost my temper, I wouldn't blame him.

But now, he actually gave this pearl to another woman.

"Princess, aren't you coming in?" Ruo Lan's voice pulled me back from the illusion.

I have a thorough understanding of my past with this woman.

"Ruo Lan? Why are you here?" I asked carefully.

"Haha, come in and talk!" Ruo Lan smiled coldly and opened the door of Lan Ruo Temple.

She took me into the temple. There were no Buddha statues or incense burners in the temple, but there was an incomparably tall statue erected within.

The person on this statue was very lifelike, and it was none other than Ming Jiu.

"How is it? Am I more diligent than you, Ghost Princess?" Ruo Lan looked at me with disdain and said proudly.

"Oh." I replied softly.

"Oh? What, do you think that if you give your heart to the Ghost King, he will love you forever?" Ruo Lan continued.

"Isn't that so?" I asked.

When Ruo Lan heard what I said, she suddenly laughed out of the blue.

"Ghost Princess, I find you really naive and ridiculous! Let me tell you, the Ghost King only likes me!" Ruo Lan stared into my eyes and said heavily.

"Is that so?" I replied indifferently. I don't want to argue too much with her. You know, I'm still a mortal now, and I can't fight a thousand-year-old female ghost.

I just subconsciously thought it was a little troublesome.

"Why not? What do you think? Do you think you are still a lofty princess now?" Ruo Lan asked coldly.

Her words were like an icicle that ruthlessly hurt my heart. Her tone of voice was exactly the same as my resentful spirit trapped in the tomb.

"Alright! So what if it's not?" I said leisurely, trying to conceal the loneliness in my heart.

"Looks like you still know yourself, so I don't care about playing dirty tricks. Hand over the Ghost King's Heart to me. I want to bring it back to the Ghost King!" Ruo Lan said with an unquestionable tone as she looked down at me with a condescending attitude.

"What if I don't?" I asked tentatively.

"No? Ghost Princess, do you have the strength to fight me now? As long as I use a few tricks, your mortal embryo body will be annihilated. Are you willing?" Ruo Lan threatened.

"You!" I was so angry that I couldn't say anything, but I wanted to see what she could do to me. Thus, he said in a deep voice, "If you have the ability, come and get it!"

"Good! You forced me to do this!" Ruo Lan laughed harshly and immediately transformed into her original form of a thousand-year-old female ghost, rushing towards me.

I saw that I couldn't dodge any longer. At this time, Yan Su, who had always accompanied me, suddenly appeared out of thin air. With a light grab, he broke Ruo Lan's offensive.

The moment Ruo Lan struck down, she immediately disappeared into the void, and Yan Su also disappeared in an instant.

After a while, a woman's hand appeared in front of me and grabbed me by the neck, but it stopped halfway.

After a burst of red and white smoke, Hell King grabbed Ruo Lan's hand and stood in front of me.

"Underworld King, stop meddling! This is a private matter between me and the Ghost Princess!" Ruo Lan looked at the Underworld King with hatred and threatened.

However, an undetectable smile appeared on Underworld King's handsome face. The corner of his mouth curved into an arc and he said calmly, "This is not a matter of meddling. If it weren't for your own good, I wouldn't be bothered to get involved in this muddy water!"

"What do you mean?" Ruo Lan and I asked in unison.

"It's meaningless. The two victims actually killed each other. What a joke!" Hell King said meaningfully.

"Victim?" Ruo Lan seemed to understand what he meant, and her face was pale.

"Off you go!"

After a long time, Ruo Lan said to me, and with a flick of her sleeve, the Orchid Ruo Temple that was blocking the road immediately disappeared.

I was speechless at what had just happened, but I was still on my way back.
