Hua Cheng thought, 'I finally found you, your highness... I finally found you. '

Xie Lian's curiosity knew no bounds and he blurted out, "Ni..." (ni = you). He couldn’t complete at first so regaining his composure, he asked, "Who are you..? Are you the ghost groom..?"

Xie Lian smacked himself mentally right after he asked this question. Obviously, if this man here really was the ghost groom, would he bother to answer? Ofcourse not! He had almost appologized the moment he realized thus.

However, Hua Cheng found ot amusing. He was amused that His Highness asked who he was and even assumed him as the puny little wrath ranked ghost groom.

Hua Cheng chuckled out loud and feeling that His Highness was staring at him, he simply grunted in a negative response.

The moment Hua Cheng made the sound, Xie Lian couldn’t help but marvel at how deep the other man's voice was! It was pleasant to the ears and the biggest problem now aside solving the case of ghost groom was, Xie Lian really wanted to hear him talk so that he could listen on to that voice for long. 'How outrageous! ' Xie Lian thought in his mind, utterly ashamed. But that shame couldn’t seep out from his centuries old built up thick skin.

Xie Lian was feeling the tender hold of his taker. He thought, ' If he was the ghost groom, he'd most certainly been the most gentle and considerate one...But he is not. So....'
His thoughts trailed off.

Still, Xie Lian couldn't shake off his suspicions. Just then, that red-clad man stopped and turned to face him. Ruoye and It's master, both were ready. As the mysterious man came to hold up the veil, Xie Lian jumped back and shot Ruoye. But it was as though the man had anticipated this action and also jumped back, instantly turning into millions of silver butterflies, drawing a galaxy in the starless night.

Xie Lian stood there, amazed. 'What are you...?' A small silver bitterfly came and circled Xie Lian for a couple of times before joining It's friends in the endless sky. Xie Lian watched the scene unfolding, without realizing that he was smiling.

With Hua Cheng now~!


'His Highness is still the same as he had been before. Just his hands are now a...a little more...calloused.' Hua Cheng smiled at first but frowned  at the second thought. 'That fucker Jun Wu. Always giving his highness some stupid activities.'

Hua Cheng brought his fingers to his head and maintained a hand seal. A moment later came the icy voice of a young man in his ears.

"Now what...?" Said he.

"Inform me of the details of the upper court in heavens." Hua Cheng demanded.

"AIN'T I DOING JUST THAT?!" he burst out.

Hua Cheng rubbed his  ears for a couple of moments before replying, "Since when do you yell so much?"

"Since the day i met Shi Qingxuan.", he replied, still icily.

" Didn't know you are someone who will get influenced by a chatterbox God of heaven. Drop the title of Ghost King, will you? You're disgracing me." Hua Cheng mocks.

He Xuan replies, "Says the 'Ghost King' who waited a millennia just to hold the hands of his God. Who the fuck are you disgracing?"

"..."

Hua Cheng mentally adds 1032 more golds, 23761 more silvers in He Xuan's debt.

He Xuan gets the message instantlly by his accountant minion. He instantly yells, "WHAT THE FUCK YOU SADISTIC CRIMSON RAIN! JUST A INSULT TO YOU WILL COST ME 1032 MORE GOLDS, 23761 MORE SILVERS??????"
