    Chapter 427: Younger Sister

    After much thinking, Chu Jiang still didn’t believe that he was a ghost, or rather, not only a ghost.

    This is not self-deception. Chu Jiang is very calm. His emotions, his memories, and his past twenty years of life are not fake.

    He leans more towards the possibility that he is a ghost, but also a human at the same time…

    The reason for this happening lies in Chu’s Jiang devouring the humanity of many ancestors of the Chu family. These human qualities not only suppress the ghostly nature, but also subtly change this ghost.

    After generations of erosion on the descendants of the Chu family, Chu’s Jiang has produced a hybrid of human and ghost. It is hard to say that it is purely a ghost, and it is also hard to say that it is purely a human.

    Moreover, that ghost baby from before is probably a transformation from a ghost body to a human body… Otherwise, Chu Jiang can’t figure out what method his parents used to succeed.

    Also, the current Chu Jiang is indeed unkillable, but it can’t be said to be completely unkillable.

    When going to the Ghost Abyss before, the Ghost Diary prophesied that he might be killed by the Demon Sword Sky Cyring; in reality, Chu’s Jiang, of course, won’t die, but Chu Jiang’s human consciousness might be extinguished, which can be seen as a spiritual death.

    If Chu Jiang really died, then the one who survives would probably become a complete ghost.

    So, if he doesn’t encounter any major dangers that cause him to lose consciousness, can Chu Jiang be considered immortal?

    He feels a bit lost and doesn’t envy the endless life of the legendary immortals. He just wants to live out his own life…

    Standing up from the wall, Chu Jiang’s mood has calmed down, and he will just go on with whatever comes next.

    As for the Ghost Diary, after sealing two hundred ghosts inside, Chu Jiang can clearly sense that not only has its aura become stronger, but its ability to interfere with the outside world seems to have improved.

    Therefore, he can’t just seal a hundred ghosts inside, even if Chu Jiang wants to find the whereabouts of the family cemetery or know if his biological parents are still alive in this world. He can’t spoil it like that.

    However, Chu Jiang took out the Ghost Mirror, "Can you understand what I’m saying? If you don’t cooperate with me, the end for you will be sealed inside the diary. By then, even if you struggle, it will be in vain. It’s better to obediently listen to me now."

    After saying that, Chu Jiang felt that his words were not quite right, so he added, "Continue playing the scene that just got cut off, and maybe I will consider releasing you from inside the Ghost Mirror in the future."

    But obviously, the Ghost Mirror ignored Chu Jiang, just like an inanimate object.

    Seeing this, Chu Jiang could only shake his head and put away this broken thing. "Wait for me, I don’t believe that I won’t be able to deal with you once Chu’s Jiang has completely transformed."

    Previously, Chu Jiang was worried about hidden dangers after Chu’s Jiang completely transformed, so he couldn’t completely relax now.

    His main concern was that after he completely turned into a ghost, his consciousness would be occupied by ghostly nature, truly completing the transformation from human to ghost.

    Of course, if Chu Jiang’s inference is correct, even if he completely transforms into a ghostly body, he will still be himself, because there is no second consciousness inside him.

    ……

    The next day, Chu Jiang took Kujo Aino and flew to a water town located in the Su Hang area.

    The headquarters of Sincerity Company is actually located on a lake island in the magic city of Shang Cheng.

    However, Chu Jiang is not going there, but to the place where the Bai Hu family is located, a place called "Bai Zhen." This information was provided by Jing Ruoxue.

    In fact, the direction Chu Jiang sensed in his heart coincides with the location of Bai Zhen; this proves that the fierce ghost Bai Hu cannot be brought by Bai Congwu to the company he opened and is always kept in the family’s base.

    Chu Jiang has already made a basic plan for what he needs to do next.

    The first step is to solve the hidden dangers of the White Tiger curse.

    The second step is to try to completely transform Chu’s Jiang and find the family tomb.

    The third step is to deal with the potential danger of the Holy Word Religion. They might come and try to take the Two Realms Bell while he is dealing with Slender Man. This way, he can also retrieve two pages of a diary.

    The final step is to kill Slender Man and help the research institute complete the connection between the two realms, putting an end to the revival of supernatural phenomena.

    If everything goes smoothly, Chu Jiang will find a way to overcome the emotional suppression caused by the ghost, and he will also start thinking about getting married and having children.

    However, this time, Chu Jiang won’t pass down Chu’s Jiang to the next generation, no matter if he can achieve it. Let the tragedy of the Chu’s Jiang lineage end completely in this generation…

    While lost in thought, the plane landed quickly.

    In reality, this time, Chu Jiang didn’t hide his actions and destination; otherwise, he could have used the Ghost Domain.

    Because he didn’t hide anything, the White Family had already reacted during these few hours.

    When Chu Jiang entered the arrival hall with Love, Ghost Masters were secretly observing in every corner, looking nervous.

    But Chu Jiang ignored them and finally activated the Ghost Domain, quickly heading towards a local ancestral mansion.

    When the two arrived at the entrance of the White Family’s mansion, there was no one around. The main gate of the White Family was unlocked, only slightly closed.

    So Chu Jiang pushed open the door and walked in. He saw six or seven people waiting in the courtyard, with a serious atmosphere.

    Standing in the middle was a man with long white hair. He had a handsome face with a hint of evilness. He was wearing a smart suit and tie, looking like an executive or CEO of a high-class company.

    The people on both sides of the white-haired man were dressed in modern clothes, but there were a few older people wearing robes and traditional Chinese clothing that didn’t fit this era, as if they were still in the previous century.

    As Chu Jiang stepped into the courtyard, before he could speak, the white-haired man approached him excitedly. "Thank you, Captain Chu! Many thanks for taking care of my little sister. Only because of you, she was able to return to the White Family unharmed."

    "Rest assured, we won’t let you help the White Family for nothing. Please feel free to make any requests. By the way, I also want to apologize personally for the incident last time. Unfortunately, Captain Chu has been overseas and unable to apologize in person."

    Chu Jiang was surprised for a moment, and Kujo Aino, who was wearing translation headphones behind him, was even more confused, even suspecting that there was a problem with the headphones.

    However, she did hear the word "sister" (いもうと).

    Seeing that both of them had no reaction, the man with white hair, Bai Congwu, coughed and explained, "It’s like this, in earlier years, my father had been quite promiscuous and made many mistakes. This included marrying my mother and having another woman outside of the marriage."

    "He and that woman, whom I should call my ‘auntie,’ had a daughter together. Since the moment this girl was born, she inherited the bloodline of our Bai family and also inherited that curse."
