Chapter 1061: [1] Do You Need Advice to Build a Harem?
Ye Wenxin walked slowly, awakening the recuperating Ghost Mother and Sword Ghost to inform them about what she was about to face.
Neither Ghost Mother nor Sword Ghost seemed surprised. Over time, even without appearing in person, they had heard much about the situation.
"Don’t worry. If you fall under the Peach Blossom Demon’s spell, I will definitely help you snap out of it," Ghost Mother promised with utmost sincerity, almost making Ye Wenxin laugh out loud.
"I'm not worried about succumbing to the Peach Blossom Demon’s charm—I'm worried about you two. Think about how I tricked you into my hands," Ye Wenxin said, not hiding her tainted motives from back then.
Both Ghost Mother and Sword Ghost exchanged strange glances. After a moment, Ghost Mother took the lead and asked, "Do you think we are truly yours?"
That question left Ye Wenxin momentarily stunned. Reflecting on it, she realized she had only conquered their physical forms, not their true thoughts and emotions, which she had never considered.
"Sorry, I overstepped," Ye Wenxin awkwardly apologized. Ghost Mother, however, seemed uncomfortable with her apology.
Given Ye Wenxin's usual shamelessness, Ghost Mother had expected her to force obedience as always. But this gentle apology felt unsettling. Ghost Mother would rather have her throw a tantrum than act so meek.
The situation frustrated Ghost Mother. It reminded her that Ye Wenxin had not communicated with her much lately.
"Master, are you tired of me? Or have I grown so strong that I’ve made you feel insecure?" Ghost Mother couldn’t help but ask more questions. Since her recent evolution, her body had matured from a charming sixteen-year-old to a stunning woman in her twenties. Her form now perfectly embodied a refined elegance. Speaking, she wrapped herself around Ye Wenxin, her expression tinged with hurt.
"Ghostie, I’m serious. I’m worried you won’t withstand the Peach Blossom Demon. Even Aran, who you know, was enchanted by her allure."
Ye Wenxin braced for Ghost Mother’s teasing, but to her surprise, Ghost Mother simply hugged her from behind without taking further action. This uncharacteristic gentleness made Ye Wenxin doubt if this was really Ghost Mother.
Yet, the emerald green eyes and hair, along with her behavior, confirmed it.
Ghost Mother’s expression turned strange at Ye Wenxin’s explanation.
"What’s with that look?" Ye Wenxin felt dissatisfied. Knowing she was about to confront the Peach Blossom Demon alone, she decided to lay it all out.
Everything in the dream concerning the Peach Blossom Immortal Lord must never come true. Ye Wenxin had already forged bonds with Ghost Mother, and no matter her personality, Ye Wenxin did not want anyone to take her away.
Of course, such thoughts would never be spoken aloud. She feared Ghost Mother would mock her for lacking the self-awareness of a proper "scumbag."
"Master, are you really that dense, or are you pretending?" Ghost Mother asked.
"Ghostie, are you looking for trouble?" Ye Wenxin’s face darkened, conjuring her golden brush to give Ghost Mother a well-deserved lesson.
