Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 1721 - 1710: Ghost Mary

"You just mentioned accidents, so is there another way to become a ghost?"Ning Fan reacted after speaking.

Since the East has Techniques for Ghost Cultivators, it doesn't seem strange to transform into a ghost through cultivation in the West.

"There is. Some mages use Black Magic at the end of their lives to turn themselves into undead."

"And the ghost in the cabin?"

"It should be influenced by dark forces; the soul didn't dissipate and survived as a ghost."

Alice hesitated, "This ghost might have died near here while alive, but this is just my guess."

In the Morgan Family's knowledge about ghosts, unless it's a mage with deep Magic Power who can keep their soul intact, a normal person's soul will dissipate into the world at the moment of death.

Ning Fan smiled, "Just find the ghost and ask it, then we'll know."

Since the ghost could scream earlier, there is a high possibility of communication.

After returning to the cabin, Ning Fan found Bick in a bedroom on the first floor.

Looking at the pale-faced, unconscious Bick, Alice asked with concern, "How is he?"

"It's nothing serious. A bit of rest will do."

Ning Fan had encountered this situation before. Soul Power loss just needs gradual nurturing to recover.

"It seems this ghost truly doesn't mean to take lives."

For ghosts, Soul Power is both their sustenance and cultivation source, so they can't possibly have too much.

The Soul Power that Bick lost was just on the edge, not harming his Soul Body's essence, otherwise, it wouldn't be just a matter of being unconscious.

Ning Fan spoke to the void, "I know you're here, come out."

I don't know if it's due to other methods or the terrain.

After entering the cabin, Ning Fan couldn't sense the ghost's presence.

Seeing no movement, Ning Fan frowned, "If you don't come out, don't blame me."

Alice asked puzzledly, "Is it possible it ran away?"

Ning Fan sneered, "Where could she run to?"

Apart from this cabin, the nearby area is completely under his Mind Perception, so any unusual fluctuation cannot escape him.

With extreme stimulus, the Seven-Colored True Qi Protective Shield looks like a colorful sphere.

The nearly golden Divine Power turned the cabin into a golden sea.

Luckily, Alice's constitution could ignore Divine Power's harm, or Ning Fan wouldn't dare act so recklessly.

"Ah..."

The ghost's shriek echoed again, and at the same time, a faint whimsy appeared in the void, depicting a woman in a white dress.

Looking at the woman's flickering form, Alice pleaded, "Ning Fan..."

"Don't play tricks."

Ning Fan snorted at the ghost woman, then retracted his Divine Power.

As soon as the golden light disappeared, the ghost woman vanished without a trace.

"Truly reckless!"

"Ning Fan, let me handle it. She's just frightened."

After speaking, Alice closed her eyes and began chanting a mysterious Dharma Spell.

When the last syllable faded, a huge hexagram Magic Formation appeared beneath Alice's feet.

Unlike the Blood Clan's Black Magic and Blood Magic, Alice's Magic Formation twinkled with silver light.

The silver light spread in all directions, enveloping the entire cabin,

then rapidly converged towards a specific spot.

After a dazzling silver flash, the previously vanished woman in a white dress appeared again, and her features could be clearly seen.

A beautifully faced, seemingly seventeen or eighteen-year-old Caucasian girl.

The woman appeared trapped, constantly struggling, her fearful eyes often glancing towards the two.

"Don't worry, we won't harm you."

Alice whispered, "As long as you don't run, I can free you now. Okay?"

Seeing the woman in the white dress nod repeatedly, Ning Fan sneered, "If you dare trick us again, things won't be so simple."

Upon hearing this, the woman in the white dress looked at Ning Fan in horror, her Soul Body trembling.

On this man's body, she, who was already dead, again felt the shadow of death.

"I'll release you now, but don't run."

After reminding her again, Alice lifted the magic's effect.

Freed, the woman in the white dress flickered several times, preparing to vanish, but noticed the cold glint in that man's eyes and stopped the bold thought.

"You're still behaving."

Ning Fan snorted, then asked, "Who are you? Why do you harm people?"

Seeing the woman in the white dress shaking her head without speaking, just as Ning Fan wondered if she could speak, Alice asked, "How did you become a ghost?"

"I don't know either."

Upon hearing the woman in the white dress, Ning Fan was furious, "I asked you a question earlier, why didn't you answer?"

As soon as he spoke, the woman in the white dress vanished on the spot in fear.

Just as Ning Fan prepared to act, he found her trembling beside Alice.

"Ning Fan, you scared her."

Noticing the displeasure in Alice's words, Ning Fan awkwardly rubbed his nose, murmuring to himself, "Am I that scary?"

How could he not be scary?

Ning Fan's whole body was like the nemesis of dark forces.

Even a Soul Body as strong as Nannan felt powerless.

Not to mention this ghost who merely uses Illusion Techniques.

"Little girl, what's your name?"

Listening to Alice coaxing like a child, Ning Fan chuckled secretly, judging by their appearances, they seem about the same age.

"No, wait... Alice has a hundred years of gestation."

Thinking of this, Ning Fan's expression turned peculiar.

"I... I'm Mary, I don't know how I became like this."

Feeling Alice's genuine kindness, Mary shared her story.

Thirty years ago, Mary was a high school student, accompanying several friends here on a trip.

Mary and her friends camped by this lake.

Upon hearing this, Ning Fan couldn't help but admire Mary's youthful vigor, daring to camp here.

Even if they could overcome psychological fear, under the influence of these chilling energies, they'd suffer significant Vital Energy loss and fall seriously ill later.

In this regard, humans are far less intelligent than animals.

The lack of life signs in this forest is due to realizing this, hence they all fled.

"Back then, we swam in the lake..."

Hearing this, Ning Fan chuckled again, amused by their ignorance and fearlessness.

Noticing Alice's disapproval, Ning Fan shrugged and silently closed his mouth.

"Suddenly, I cramped, and my companions were far away. When they arrived..."

Seeing Mary's tearful expression, the rest of her words didn't need to be said.

This was why Ning Fan laughed earlier.

Damage to the mental level can cause physical discomfort to a certain extent.
