Ghost Catching System

Shangguan Moyue nodded. "That’s right. We’ve found a descendant of the Chu Family. As long as you drink his fresh blood, you can transform into his likeness and help us open King Chu’s Tomb."

Chu Hao was taken aback again. This is too much of a coincidence!

The descendant of King Chu mentioned by Shangguan Moyue... isn’t that me?

The Painted Skin Ghost asked, "How can I trust you?"

Shangguan Moyue smiled faintly. "It’s simple. Didn’t you come here to enhance your strength? The people on this yacht... I’ll let you eat any of them."

The crowd screamed in horror. He’s letting that monster eat us? This man is so cruel!

The Painted Skin Ghost also seemed excited. "Good. You can prove it," it said.

Shangguan Moyue took a deep breath, looked at everyone present, and pointed at Xiang Jian. "Skin him."

Xiang Jian’s scalp tingled when he heard this. He bellowed, "What are you doing? Get away!"

But the Painted Skin Ghost said, "I don’t want men. Only women, very, very beautiful women."

Shangguan Moyue frowned. His gaze swept across the crowd, landing on the stunningly beautiful Luo Yan. He sneered, "So that’s why you came to the yacht. It was for her."

"Go! Bring her out."

Luo Yan cried out in alarm, but then a hand landed on her shoulder, immediately giving her a profound sense of security.

Chu Hao grinned. "Don’t worry, I’m here."

Only then did Luo Yan manage a smile, nodding slightly.

Two men from the Shangguan Family stepped forward, reaching out to grab Luo Yan.

Suddenly, Chu Hao kicked out without holding back. The man in front was sent flying like a sack, crashing into the wall.

BANG! It looked painful just to watch.

The other man, shocked and about to retaliate, was slapped away by Chu Hao. He went flying, spinning several times in mid-air.

Under everyone’s gaze, Chu Hao stepped forward. An air of aloofness surrounded him, his scornful eyes sweeping over everyone from the Shangguan Family. He said lightly, "Who did you say you wanted to grab? Say it again for this master to hear."

"Ding... Host has successfully shown off with flair, earning 700 Pretentiousness Points."

The members of the Shangguan Family were horrified, looking at the two who couldn’t get up. What kind of strength is this, to take down two people instantly?

Shangguan Moyue frowned. "Who are you?" he asked.

Chu Hao didn’t even bother to look at him, regarding him as trash.

Shangguan Moyue sensed the extreme contempt in Chu Hao’s eyes, and he found it unbearable. He was a young prodigy of the Shangguan Family! Among the youth of Huaxia, who would dare look down on him?

Shangguan Moyue said coldly, "I’m asking you a question! Didn’t you hear me?"

Chu Hao replied frostily, "Who am I? I’ve heard that question too many times. Everyone who knew my true identity is dead. Are you sure you really want to know?" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Ding... Host has successfully shown off, earning 700 Pretentiousness Points."

What’s going on?

If anyone else had said that, I’d think they were just posturing and needed to be taught a lesson. But hearing it from Chu Hao, it carried an intangible, domineering pressure that made my heart race.

Chu Hao stepped closer. "Do you want to know or not?" he asked coldly.

Shangguan Moyue was fuming. This kid is too arrogant! But the words caught in his throat, and he swallowed them back down.

Chu Hao looked at him with contempt. "A flea-like ant," he said lightly. "You don’t even dare to learn the identity of this Taoist Master. You’re not even worthy of being killed by me."

"Ding... Host has successfully shown off through extreme contempt, earning 700 Pretentiousness Points."

FUCK!!!

Shangguan Moyue was about to explode with rage. But for some reason, when Chu Hao said those words, I recoiled inwardly, not daring to utter a single word of rebuttal!

Everyone present was stunned speechless. Chu Hao’s appearance, his domineering aura intimidating everyone, and his supreme kingly demeanor, rendered the opposition utterly speechless.

The short-haired woman raised her gun. "Stop your charade! Who the hell are you?" she yelled angrily.

Chu Hao said icily, "Pointing a gun at me... Do you know the consequences?"

A chill ran down the short-haired woman’s spine. Chu Hao’s eyes were terrifying, like those of a ferocious beast that had locked onto its prey.

Her hand trembled. BANG! She fired.

Everyone screamed.

Chu Hao focused his mind. Instantly, the Night Demon Blade appeared from the System Space, intercepting the bullet’s path. CLANG! Sparks flew.

Chu Hao glanced at the Night Demon Blade. Not a single mark from the bullet could be seen; it was still perfectly smooth.

His icy gaze, like a bolt of lightning, fixed on her. "Very good! In my eyes, you are already a dead woman."

"Ding... Host has pulled off a shocking display, gaining 1,400 Pretentiousness Points."

Chu Hao was inwardly ecstatic. This is the rhythm of showing off! Let it come even more fiercely!

Chu Hao charged forward, his speed incredible.

"AAAHH!!" The short-haired woman screamed, firing relentlessly at Chu Hao.

The Night Demon Blade morphed, taking the form of an umbrella and blocking all incoming bullets.

When he was about a meter from the short-haired woman, the umbrella suddenly reverted to its blade form, its sharp edge resting against her pale neck.

The gunfire ceased abruptly.

The entire area was deathly silent; everyone’s jaws had practically hit the floor.

"Ding... Host has successfully shown off with splendor, gaining 700 Pretentiousness Points."

What incredible skill!

Chu Hao had stunned everyone present. It all felt unbelievable, especially for the short-haired woman, who was frozen in terror.

Chu Hao stared into her eyes. "How do you want to die?" he asked.

The short-haired woman swallowed hard, looking towards Shangguan Moyue, silently pleading for him to save her.

Shangguan Moyue’s expression was grim. "Dude, don’t be rash," he said. "We were just joking."

But the moment his words fell, the Night Demon Blade swung down. The short-haired woman collapsed silently, blood gushing from her neck like a fountain.

Who said I don’t kill? That I don’t kill women?

"M-murder... He killed someone!" someone stammered, already terrified beyond belief, trembling uncontrollably.

"Are you stupid? If it weren’t for Chu Hao, we might all have been monster food by now! Good riddance!" someone else voiced their support.

Shangguan Moyue’s face contorted in shock and rage. "You... you killed her?" he exclaimed.

This isn’t the first time I’ve killed. I’m perfectly calm. Besides, that woman deserved to die. If I didn’t have the strength, wouldn’t I be the one dead by now?

Chu Hao said coldly, "What? So it’s okay for you to shoot at me, but not for me to kill one of you?"

Contempt. Utter contempt. The members of the Shangguan Family were profoundly shaken.

Shangguan Moyue fell silent. Just who is this person? How can he be so formidable that he can even dodge and block bullets?

Seeing the Shangguan Family cowed, Chu Hao finally spoke, "Feng Xiaoxiao, aren’t you planning to come out? Oh... or perhaps I should call you... Painted Skin Ghost."

Gasps erupted from the crowd. Those near Feng Xiaoxiao were so terrified they stumbled to the ground, scrambling away.

Feng Xiaoxiao stared intently at Chu Hao. "Who exactly are you? And how did you recognize me?!" she demanded.

With those words, she had clearly admitted it.
