Ghost Matchmaking: Ghost Emperor Husband and Campus Queen Wife

Hearing this, the Dragon Country audience grew anxious.

[Isn’t this outcome good enough? What does Yun Zhenyue mean by that?]

[Luo Huan is Mr. Luo’s daughter. She won’t die, she’s just being locked up.]

[This is so unnecessary! Making an enemy of Mr. Luo to save her? That’s a suicide mission!]

[Megan was killed just like that! Mr. Luo doesn’t care if the students live or die. Even being on the board of directors is useless. He’s a completely unreasonable madman now!]

[That’s enough! It’s amazing that she’s already helped this much!]

[Where’s the great Gu Yuan? Hurry up and talk some sense into her!]

In everyone’s eyes, Luo Huan had only lost her freedom by being imprisoned within the chamber of his heart. She wasn’t going to die, so why make an enemy of Mr. Luo for her sake?

Luo Huan herself had said he possessed a Ghost Trick and could unleash the power of a mid-level Evil Star!

Lily had only just become an Evil Star. Paired with a top-tier, crimson-robed panda doll, they were still no match for him!

It was irrational.

A complete suicide mission!

Sacrifice one person to save all of Chilling Middle School!

This was Luo Huan’s wish.

And it was the best possible outcome.

...

「At that moment.」

HUMMM—

Before Luo Huan could even figure out what Yun Zhenyue meant,

her body instantly transformed into a streak of blood-red light.

Luo Huan’s eyes filled with reluctance.

Then, she dissipated right before Yun Zhenyue’s eyes.

There wasn’t even a chance for a final, parting hug.

The streak of blood-red light flowed into the enormous heart hovering above everyone’s heads!

THUMP!

THUMP-THUMP!

After imprisoning Luo Huan within the chamber of his heart, Mr. Luo’s heart began to tremble violently!

The writhing valves revealed twisted, worm-like veins of blood. These veins, like living creatures, began to squirm and crawl, repairing themselves. In no time, they had completely sealed the large hole in the chamber.

It now looked more like a giant, fleshy tumor. The engorged blood vessels were like tangled roots, wrapping tightly around the heart’s interior, making it impossible to ever break through the barrier.

’Are we... safe now?’

Yamada Aiko’s pupils froze as she stared at Yun Zhenyue, her eyes wide with shock.

So Yun Zhenyue had somehow befriended the principal’s daughter.

’How did she know Luo Huan’s identity? And why was she so unfazed when facing Mr. Luo?’

’We all came here to study.’

’But it’s like Yun Zhenyue is from a completely different world.’

’While the rest of us were still scratching the surface, Yun Zhenyue had already figured out all of Chilling Middle School’s secrets.’

’We’re still giving our all just for ordinary missions.’

’But Yun Zhenyue has already set her sights on the final hidden mission.’

’If Yun Zhenyue can really resolve the conflict between the father and daughter...’

’It’s hard to imagine how great her reward would be.’

HUFF... HUFF... HUFF...

Han Sumei stared at the heart hovering overhead, her face pale as she panted for breath.

Megan’s body was not even cold beside her.

She had no thoughts left in her head.

All she wanted was to get back to Wansheng District as soon as possible.

’A Minotaur is a Minotaur, but no matter what, he’s thousands of times better than this insane Mr. Luo!’

But just then, just as the girls thought the nightmare was finally over,

Yun Zhenyue slowly began to walk toward Mr. Luo.

"What is she doing?"

"Is she crazy? Mr. Luo isn’t even bothering her, and she’s going to stir up trouble!"

"Someone stop her! Don’t let her drag us into it!"

"..."

Seeing this, the girls’ hearts leaped into their throats. They wanted to stop her, but it was too late.

Under Mr. Luo’s astonished gaze, Yun Zhenyue arrived before him.

No one knew what the two of them said.

They only saw Yun Zhenyue’s body also transform into a streak of blood-red light.

It flew into Mr. Luo’s heart.

Only then did Mr. Luo finally retract the heart.

His chest became whole again, and the shadow that had been looming over the girls’ heads vanished.

It seemed that everything had returned to normal.

Seeing Yun Zhenyue also get imprisoned in the chamber of the heart, the girls were bewildered, but also felt a swirl of complicated emotions.

’Yun Zhenyue... is dead, just like that?’

’Even if she’s not dead, she’ll never get out in this lifetime.’

’The person they had always envied... was willing to be buried alive with her?’

Yamada Aiko’s eyes twitched. She had a feeling... 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

’Yun Zhenyue won’t die here.’

’But why would she enter the heart chamber voluntarily?’

’Could it be... that she’s really confident she can escape from the inside?’

...

THUMP-THUMP!

THUMP-THUMP-THUMP!

In a daze, Yun Zhenyue heard a colossal booming sound coming from all directions.

The rhythmic, muffled pounding was like thunder, like the shaking of a mountain.

The viscous blood underfoot made it hard to stand. Her body trembled with the vibrations, forcing her to steady herself against the surrounding walls of flesh.

The world before her was a sea of crimson, like a long, narrow cave. A small stream trickled at her feet, and a sliver of light shone through a doorway formed by a heart valve.

"So this is Mr. Luo’s heart chamber?"

Yun Zhenyue murmured to herself.

She had entered this place willingly.

Trying to resolve the conflict between the father and daughter with brute force wouldn’t work. First, she needed to know the truth.

’Why is Mr. Luo so twisted? And what will Luo Huan experience inside this heart chamber?’

She had to come inside to find out.

A heart doesn’t lie.

Mr. Luo hadn’t stopped her. Instead, he had allowed her to accompany Luo Huan.

HUFF... HUFF...

Yun Zhenyue felt her breathing grow more difficult as the oxygen thinned.

She pushed forward through the blood-red cave.

The light grew brighter, but the distance, which seemed to be less than a hundred meters, felt almost impossible to cross.

The passage ahead grew narrower, so she had no choice but to summon Lily.

"Lily, go forward," Yun Zhenyue commanded with a thought.

MEOW~

Lily’s body grew slightly larger, and she let Yun Zhenyue climb onto her back.

The girl and her cat continued to press onward.

Finally, at the end of the passage, Yun Zhenyue saw Luo Huan.

She was now only a few steps away from her.

But the passage here was completely blocked, with no way to pass through.

To save Luo Huan,

she would have to force her way through this bloody tunnel.

She could see that this part of the bloody tunnel was different from where they’d come from. It was made of blood-red threads. These threads were like vigilant worms, twisting and winding, exuding a terrifying aura.

They were densely packed. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but thread-worms!

Even Lily’s white fur stood on end at the sight!

Yun Zhenyue stroked Lily, then had her return to her Double Pupil.

’It’s about time...’

Yun Zhenyue looked up.

She saw Luo Huan, bound tightly in the deepest part of the heart chamber.

Her entire body was covered in the thread-worms, leaving only one cheek exposed. She was fast asleep, like Snow White after eating the poisoned apple, her once-bright almond eyes shut tight.

The small cat pendant had also lost its liveliness.

Luo Huan seemed to be in a sweet dream, a faint smile gracing her lips.

It looked like a beautiful scene.

But this...

...was not her wish.

Luo Huan longed for freedom.

She disliked a dull and tedious life, preferring stories that brought her novelty and wonder.

She had only compromised because she didn’t want to see more people like Du’er get hurt for her sake.

The only happy time in Luo Huan’s life was her childhood.

After that, she was trapped in the shackles of her father’s love, culminating in Mr. Luo’s current twisted state, imprisoning her within this heart chamber. Being trapped in a dream was little different from being dead.

Perhaps she had long known what her end would be.

If Luo Huan had the power to choose, she would undoubtedly yearn for the winds of the outside world. Like a broken wall, even if the winds outside were cold or scorching, it would all be the result of her own choice.

Yun Zhenyue thought of herself.

Living alone was lonely and solitary, but she had found salvation since meeting Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan respected her and gave her the power to choose.

But what about Luo Huan?

If no one came to save her, she would remain bound in shackles.

’Then let me be the one!’ Yun Zhenyue resolved.

At that moment, she used the Love Contract!

"My love, help me..."

...

「Meanwhile.」

Inside Wansheng District.

Gu Yuan was playing a child-rearing simulation game.

In this simulation game, you could raise a child from birth to adulthood, and the kind of person they became was entirely dependent on the player’s choices.

He had just finished his first playthrough. Under Gu Yuan’s control, the in-game parents had high expectations and relentlessly pushed their child. The child’s life became hopeless, and they ended up developing severe depression and running away from home.

"Sigh. Looks like I’m not cut out for raising kids."

Gu Yuan shook his head and put down the controller.

Just then, he suddenly sensed a plea coming from Yun Zhenyue.

Gu Yuan smiled faintly.

He felt a degree of sympathy for Luo Huan and didn’t approve of Mr. Luo’s parenting methods.

But he had always been too busy to get involved.

’Since Yun Zhenyue wants to solve it, I’ll let her.’

With a mere thought,

Gu Yuan lent her his power.

’I just hope Yun Zhenyue holds back a little.’

’Otherwise...’

’...it won’t be long before my identity is exposed.’

’My peaceful days are probably numbered.’
