Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Ghost

"No trouble, they’ve already calmed down. It’s just that I haven’t had the time to transcend them yet," Xia Xi told her.

"Ohhh, can we let them come out now?" Xia Yue asked curiously.

"We can, but first, let them absorb some incense so they can perform better," Xia Xi nodded, opening the three bottle caps. Immediately, three ghosts emerged.

Upon seeing Xia Yue and Xia Xi, the three ghosts paused momentarily but quickly greeted Xia Xi respectfully.

Among the three—one man and two women—all of them seemed to be between twenty-five and thirty years old. Their faces were a bit paler than regular people, but they didn’t differ much otherwise.

"Later on, you three will help me scare someone. Take some incense first, create fear using the appearance you had upon death, but don’t go overboard. As soon as they flee the room, stop chasing. Frighten them once they enter the room—twice should suffice." Xia Xi said to them as she lit three sticks of incense from a bag nearby.

"Scaring people? Absolutely no problem!" The lady in red laughed while staring at the incense in her hand.

"Right, I am very good at scaring people." The disheveled lady in the color-changing dress nodded as well.

"I’ll take care of blocking the exit so they can’t escape." The only male ghost nodded in agreement.

"As long as you understand what to do." Xia Xi nodded, piercing the incense into each bottle cap for them to absorb.

Xia Xi looked at Xia Yue, who had been quiet, and seeing her puzzled expression said: "Are you surprised that they don’t seem to be horrifying?"

"Yes, they look pretty much like normal people, just a little paler. And the two ladies seem quite pretty." Xia Yue nodded in response.

"They are covering up their appearance at death with their Ghostly Qi," Xia Xi explained.

"Are their true forms at death very unsightly?" Xia Yue asked curiously.

"Yes, the lady in red was forced by her family to marry an old, sadistic man. She was wearing red the day she attempted escape but ended up jumping off the roof in the middle of the night when Yin Qi is heavy. Her face was unrecognizable, her brains burst out. The Yin Qi was so heavy she instantly turned into a Fierce Ghost.

The lady in white got into a quarrel with an ex-boyfriend when she was heading home from work. While running away, she was hit by a truck and her body was left in a horrible state.

As for the male, he was tricked by a friend into going up a mountain and was pushed from the top. His whole body and face are covered in gruesome injuries." Xia Xi introduced them one by one to Xia Yue.

"Captain Xia, who is she?" The lady in red asked Xia Yue curiously.

"Hello, I’m Xia Yue," responded Xia Yue with a smile.

"You’re the first ordinary person to see us and still smile so radiantly, apart from those gifted people like Captain Xia," the lady in the white dress chuckled.

"Indeed," the male ghost agreed, nodding. Anyone else who discovered they were ghosts screamed in terror, yet this Xia Yue was so calm.

"She’s my sister. Don’t reveal your actual form in front of her, it’ll ruin her appetite," Xia Xi warned them.

The three ghosts instantly put away any thoughts of pulling pranks and quickly nodded.

[These ghosts don’t seem too impressive.] the system snarked to Xia Yue.

"I think so too," Xia Yue nodded, her face void of any trace of fear.
