Chapter 374: The Invasion of the Ghost Bride
The next morning, Chu Jiang took a plane back home. When he arrived at the airport, he received a message from Mia, saying that she wanted to see him.
But Chu Jiang didn’t go back in the end. Instead, he asked someone from the BRPD to bring her a paper crane he folded himself. Chu Jiang consciously kept his distance from ordinary people.
……
The plane landed in Yunjing City. Chu Jiang didn’t immediately return to Luohe City. He wanted to finish what he had to do first.
Back at headquarters, Chu Jiang went to say hello to Expert Chen in his office and said he wanted to see Mr. Xu.
To his surprise, he received unexpected news: Mr. Xu had left a letter for him.
It seemed that the old man knew that Chu Jiang wanted to ask him about something, so he prepared in advance. The contents of the letter were roughly as follows:
Mr. Xu had visited the island country a long time ago and even left a bloodline there.
Now, after many years, the bloodline over there had accidentally discovered that Mr. Xu was still alive. It was quite astonishing. At the same time, the descendants from there hoped that he could come forward and help the island country get rid of the S-class ghost named "Ghost Abyss".
In the past, Mr. Xu never responded or admitted.
After all, he only has a limited number of times to take action and doesn’t want to waste it on the island country. Besides, the future of his descendants is not bad, as they belong to a well-known and respected family on the island, and they don’t need him to intervene.
It wasn’t until these recent days that Mr. Xu seemed to have a sense that Chu Jiang, after going to the United States, would definitely be able to solve this matter.
So, when they sent someone to contact Mr. Xu from Peaceful Spirit Garden again, his reply to them was:
Chu Jiang should be going to the island country in a few days. When that time comes, you can ask him. If he wants to help, then he will, but if he doesn’t, then he doesn’t.
……
Chu Jiang was puzzled when he read this. Why did Mr. Xu believe that he could definitely deal with the false god? And how did he know that Chu Jiang would be going to the island country? Does he also have the ability to foresee things?
He continued reading, and the last paragraph said:
Knowing your personality, you must have about seventy to eighty percent confidence before going to the United States to try to resolve the false god. That’s why I believe you will achieve certain results.
Finally, even if you don’t plan to go to the island country, I would still recommend you to go.
I know you have been trying in which direction recently. After going to the island country, you should be able to find some clues about the bell.
After Chu Jiang finished reading, he was even more amazed. Mr. Xu knew about the Two Realms Bell?
But thinking about it, it’s normal. This man doesn’t even know which dynasty the legendary figure came from. His understanding of the Two Realms Bell should be clearer than that of Lin Lao Taiye, the Ghost Master from the Republic of China period.
In this way, even Mr. Xu says there are clues about the Two Realms Bell in the island country. Plus the information from Sister Bel, the hope of obtaining the bell in the island country should be great.
However, Chu Jiang still wanted to meet Mr. Xu in person to ask him some things clearly.
"You better not think about it. Do whatever you need to do," Chen Yehua, with dark circles under his eyes, yawned.
"Mr. Xu doesn’t even see us now. We have been stuck in our research on the real world recently. Because we don’t have the actual bell, we can only make some attempts on Zhang Haoran based on some ancient materials."
"Mr. Xu should know some information, but he just tells us to try our best and says he can’t do anything. So it’s up to you. If you can bring back the bell, we should be able to make some breakthrough progress."
After finishing speaking, Expert Chen placed his hands on Chu Jiang’s shoulders and said with an exaggerated tone, "The future of the world depends on you, young boy!"
Chu Jiang found it somewhat amusing and said, "Alright, alright, I’ll try my best."
……
Next, guided by Chen Yuting, Chu Jiang went to meet Michiko.
Michiko is currently in a special nursery area. When Chu Jiang arrived, he saw a cute little baby girl with watery eyes, holding a bottle and sitting on the bed watching TV. There was also a female caregiver taking care of her.
The TV was playing news from the island country. It seemed that even though she had become a baby, Michiko still cared about the situation in her own country.
As soon as Chu Jiang entered the room, Michiko instinctively turned her head to look at him and then froze.
Chu Jiang casually waved and walked towards the bedside, but halfway there, his expression changed!
Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on Michiko’s face.
Her lips slightly curved upwards, while her facial features remained almost immobile. Her eyes were cold and lifeless, like a vengeful spirit.
All of this happened after she met Chu Jiang.
Immediately, Chu Jiang used his Ghost Domain to isolate himself and the baby, to prevent Michiko from losing control and posing a threat to the caregivers and Chen Yuting inside the room.
Honestly, Chu Jiang expected some kind of change in Michiko, but he never imagined it would be this serious. It was just like before, wasn’t it??
During this time, Michiko had been staying at headquarters and had undergone countless rounds of checks, but no abnormal results were discovered.
Furthermore, since the Ghost Bride was sealed at Green Cloud Mountain, there had been no news or signs. Chu Jiang thought that the threat of the Ghost Bride had disappeared, or at least come to an end.
But the current situation made him realize that everything was not over yet…
As Chu Jiang brought Michiko into the Ghost Domain, something even more terrifying happened. A purple, eerie card surfaced from Michiko’s chest, depicting the appearance of the Ghost Bride.
In addition, Chu Jiang also noticed that the Ghost Bride on the card was actually moving.
Chu Jiang saw it with his own eyes as it gradually entered reality from the playing card; he wanted to stop it, but he was worried about harming the fragile baby.
He tried to use Ghost Domain to separate the baby from the card, but he couldn’t separate them at all, let alone affect Ghost Bride’s actions.
In just a few breaths, a Ghost Bride, wearing a traditional red wedding gown, with a red veil on her head and delicate embroidered shoes on her feet, appeared in front of Chu Jiang again, with pale hands folded in front of her, surprising him in an unexpected way.
And Chu Jiang could tell that this was the true form of the Ghost Bride.
In other words, it invaded the card from Green Cloud Mountain through some strange means, then entered the real world from the card all the way to the research institute headquarters.
As for the blockade set by the Ghost Master of the research institute at the foot of the mountain… it could only be said to be futile in the face of a being like Ghost Bride.
At the moment when Ghost Bride appeared, even though they were separated by Ghost Domain, even deep underground on the fourteenth floor, Mr. Xu seemed to sense that something had happened.
Chu Jiang only heard a hoarse, old voice saying, "Go, handle it outside."
