Ghost Matchmaking: Ghost Emperor Husband and Campus Queen Wife

A single slash descended!

A hush fell over the scene!

The villagers all stood as if muted, unable to utter a single word.

Many stood stiff, staring at Shoushou in a dazed panic.

Their mouths were dry, and it felt like every pore on their bodies was trembling.

Just moments ago, they had been ready to attack these children indiscriminately.

Thankfully, the misunderstanding was cleared up.

Otherwise, if that slash had been aimed at Sealed Soul Village!

It would have ground them all to dust!

Whether it was a Fierce Ghost or a Crimson-robed Ghost...

Or even one of the weaker Evil Stars.

In the face of this slash, they would all be treated equally!

Merely fleeting souls and shadows before the blade.

And the most terrifying part was...

This child hadn’t even used a sword!

He had used his blood as a sword!

Using some bizarre and unknown ability, he had managed to unleash that slash!

Who could possibly have been prepared for that?!

Who in their right mind uses their hand as a sword?

The old village chief’s scalp tingled as he stared at Sam’s corpse.

’How did he just die like that...’

It was the first time he had ever seen a supernatural being get scared to death.

’I have to say...’

’Was that kid really such a coward?’

’And to think you’re the son of a Marquis.’

’This is trouble now.’

’With Sam dead in Sealed Soul Village, the Marquis will never let us off.’

’Once these kids leave, he could just send any Evil Star, and Sealed Soul Village would be annihilated!’

For a moment, his mind was in turmoil. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

’Looks like the only option is to flee with the villagers.’

...

The Dragon Country audience was also stunned by the sight.

[Dude, I thought you were a painter? What the hell is with this sword intent?]

[Did I get teleported to another novel? Is this still the Ghost World? My man’s cultivating over here!]

[HOLY SHIT, I just took a sip of water and spat it everywhere. You can actually *draw* something like that?!]

[With painting skills this incredible, he still needs to learn from Gu Yuan?]

[Gu Yuan must have really done a number on this kid. Painting with blood... what a character!]

[If Shoushou can draw mountains and swords, what can Gu Yuan draw? An entire world?]

...

At that moment, Yun Zhenyue looked worriedly at the exhausted Shoushou.

That single painted slash had cleaved the small hill in two!

’All the yin energy in his body must have been completely drained!’

But the aura of that slash gave Yun Zhenyue a strange sense of déjà vu.

It was like a terrifying slash she thought she’d heard about before!

Just as she reached Shoushou’s side, he raised his head.

He flashed a weak smile. "Sister, did you see that?"

"It’s a slash I painted in imitation of Brother Gu Yuan!"

"It’s amazing, right!"

"It’s a shame... the power is a bit lacking..."

’So it was an imitation of Gu Yuan!’

’That explains it!’

Yun Zhenyue had a sudden realization.

She had always been very confident in Gu Yuan’s power.

’But he calls *this* lacking in power?’

’Even a top-tier Evil Star would probably be instantly killed by that slash!’

She pushed the distracting thoughts from her mind.

Yun Zhenyue asked with concern, "Are you okay? You look a little pale."

"Sister, don’t worry. He’s totally fine, just overdrafted on yin energy!"

Meimei slapped Shoushou on the shoulder and said irritably.

"He told you not to use a brush and paint, and you actually listened!"

"Are you an idiot? Always trying to show off!"

"I’m the one who planned this escape! If you get hurt, how am I supposed to explain it when we get back? You’re making me so mad, hmph!"

Hearing this, Shoushou coughed awkwardly. "But I’m fine, aren’t I?"

"Besides, he couldn’t have beaten me even if I didn’t use anything."

"Just tell me, was that cool or what!"

Pangpang nodded excitedly. "Cool! So cool!"

"Can you teach me sometime? I want to be cool for once, too!"

Seeing that everyone was okay, Kuku also breathed a sigh of relief.

"..."

In a place none of them could perceive, a pair of scarlet eyes looked down.

At that moment, Xiaoya, the ghost bride, suppressed the tremor in her eyes.

A complex mix of emotions flickered in her pupils.

"Thank you all for saving me!"

"But with Sam dead here, this is no small matter. I implore you to leave this place quickly."

"As for what comes next, I will go to the Marquis and atone."

Hearing this, Yun Zhenyue understood.

’Xiaoya wants to take the blame all by herself.’

But Xiaoya was only a Crimson-robed Ghost; the blame for Sam’s death was too heavy for her to bear.

’What should we do?’

Just then, Meimei tugged on Yun Zhenyue’s sleeve. "Sister, are you wondering how to explain this?"

"Let me handle it. I have an ability that lets me contact that Marquis right now."

"Besides, this isn’t our fault. Shoushou didn’t even mean to kill him. He scared himself to death!"

’Alright.’

’I suppose this is the only way.’

’After all, he was quite polite to us.’

’He not only apologized but even offered a title.’

’If he needs some kind of compensation, it’s best to communicate.’

Yun Zhenyue nodded. "Give it a try."

"Okay!"

Meimei had a villager bring her a bowl of water.

She immediately switched to another personality.

In an instant, Meimei’s demeanor became somewhat mature.

This personality possessed the ability to communicate over long distances.

As long as there was a liquid present, she could connect with someone regardless of distance!

It was a mature personality that formed for when she did something wrong and wanted to apologize.

SWIRL~

As the water’s surface rippled, the image of the distant Blood Race Marquis instantly appeared on it.

It was clear to see he seemed a bit dumbfounded as well.

The Blood Race Marquis was holding a glass of red wine.

He had just been feeling relieved that he had finally sent those little terrors on their way!

How long had it been?

And now their faces were appearing in his wine glass.

’They’re like haunting spirits!’

This made the Marquis’s heart clench. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn’t dare put down the glass.

"Is there... something you need?"

"Um—"

Yun Zhenyue found the situation tricky and searched for the right words.

She didn’t know how to say it.

’I can’t just come out and say his son passed away, can I?’

But just then, the Blood Race Marquis spoke up first. "Are you calling to tell me that Sam is dead?"

"Huh?" His words surprised even the mature version of Meimei. "Mister, how did you know?!"

"Sam was my son. Of course I would sense it."

"I have no intention of holding anyone responsible. He’s dead, and that’s that. In fact, it saves me a lot of trouble!"

The Marquis sighed.

The ghost officiant had just fled back and reported everything to him.

And just as he’d finished speaking, he had sensed Sam’s death.

Had it been a normal person whose son had died, they would surely be furious!

But the Marquis was completely calm.

Just yesterday, he had received news that a female slave was pregnant with his child again. He had sensed it was a boy, one who could inherit the title in the future. This made Sam completely disposable.

The main problem was that Sam was just too much of a troublemaker!

Nobody could save him!

Since he was a child, he’d been a good-for-nothing who did nothing but cause petty trouble.

Like an imbecile!

Not only did he constantly cause trouble, but he even dared to lie to him!

He’d claimed that Xiaoya from Sealed Soul Village was in love with him.

That was the only reason the Marquis had arranged the marriage.

Who knew the girl would rather die than submit, that she would kill herself before marrying Sam!

If no one had intervened in this marriage, Sam would have made another enemy for no good reason.

You see, Sealed Soul Village wasn’t as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Xiaoya actually had an Evil Star for a brother.

Although that brother wasn’t as strong as him, the Marquis had no desire to provoke him unnecessarily.

And then, Sam had even asked him to send his bodyguards to kill the children from the orphanage?

When the Marquis heard that, his heart nearly stopped!

’Did he have a death wish?’

’If he had actually hurt them... ten heads wouldn’t have been enough for the orphanage’s adults to chop off!’

’Thankfully...’

’...the one who died in the end was Sam.’

All of these infuriating incidents added up had made the Marquis completely lose all hope for Sam!

He wished he had died sooner!

Even if he hadn’t died this time, he would have dragged him back and locked him in the dungeon.

He would never have let Sam out again for the rest of his life.

’In any case, losing one son is no big deal!’

’And I suppose it puts the orphanage in my debt.’

’As long as I never have to see those little brats again!’

He had a banquet to attend tonight, anyway.

He didn’t have time for this nonsense.

Thinking this, the Blood Race Marquis slowly said, "Don’t worry about it. I honestly think it’s for the best that Sam is dead."

"You can keep his corpse for now. I’ll send someone to pick it up later."

"If there are any severed limbs, please do me the favor of piecing them back together."

Hearing this, Yun Zhenyue said awkwardly, "That’s good to hear. But you can rest assured, the body is completely intact."

"Then how did he die?" the Marquis asked, puzzled. He had assumed that monster had killed him. But the body was intact. ’Could it be these children have some kind of psychic abilities?’

But just then, Yun Zhenyue said something that made him lose his composure.

"He was scared to death," Yun Zhenyue said truthfully.

"..."

The Marquis fell silent.

A vein bulged on his temple!

’How could he be so disgraceful?’

He wished he could bring Sam back to life just to torture him a hundred more times!

’Couldn’t you have died with a little more dignity?!’
