Su Zimo suddenly shouted so loudly at the dinner, everyone around Su Kun was shocked. That’s not even mentioning Su Kun, who originally thought that what he did would never be discovered.
The third son, Su Kun, thought he should be the first person in the family to encounter a ‘nightmare.’
There are always some true or false or ambiguous rumours among the upper class, and Su Kun, the third son of the Su family, was obviously the most social person in the upper class there today. Unlike the despised second son, Su Duan, Su Kun admitted that he was attending high-class dinners, making friends with all kinds of powerful people, and had also heard some things that ordinary people didn’t know.
For example… ‘Nightmares.’
Su Kun knew very little about ‘Nightmares,’ but he knew that everything in ‘Nightmare’ was very valuable and had magical powers.
For example, the ring on his hand – the person who sold it to him said that it was a rare treasure in the world. It was unique, much more powerful than the weapons sold to others, and could even control a monster in the ‘Nightmare’ to kill the enemy.
Yes, it’s to kill!
The ring may even be used multiple times, but no one has used it like this.
Because the goods that the man sold to others had been proven to have great effects, Su Kun grit his teeth and paid the big price to get the things he originally didn’t dare to buy!
After putting on the ring, Su Kun felt that his sense of security had improved a lot, and he wouldn’t pay much attention to the gross little master of the Su family.
A little stinky kid who didn’t know about ‘Nightmares’ was like a gutter child who had never seen a computer. He was no threat at all in Su Kun’s eyes.
As long as he had that ring, he could be more thorough than the ‘kind person’ from four years ago, and ensure that Su Zimo has no chance to wake up!
What’s even better is that the person who sold the ring to Su Kun swore that no one would find out who did it. Even if the police investigate, the cause of death cannot be found. They would never know how the deceased died!
Even Su Kun, who did it, didn’t know what would happen after he turned the rink back and forth several times as required. In other words, even Su Kun himself wouldn’t know how the master of the Su family would suffer.
Is there anything more perfect than that?
When Su Kun felt the chill as the merchant described, he stared intently at Su Zimo, wanting to see how the stinky little kid who took all of the Su family properties would die.
But…
Su Kun didn’t see the scene he desired.
He only saw the stinky little kid inexplicable shout ‘Ghost Umbrella,’ then a black umbrella that looked particularly large suddenly opened beside Su Zimo. Everyone could momentarily see with their naked eyes that some black mist was blocked in front of the black umbrella!
The black mist appeared after the black umbrella appeared. Su Gan, who couldn’t see ghosts or demons at all, also saw the black umbrella and black mist appear as if by magic.
The black umbrella that was blocking like a shield suddenly rose high, then everyone saw a man in black clothes standing behind Su Zimo holding an umbrella.
It was no one else but the ‘temporary’ housekeeper Ghost Umbrella who had once appeared in Su manor!
The former housekeeper who Su Zimo said had already been fired!
Now that he had appeared here in such a weird way, whether or not the other could accept it, they had to admit that there was something wrong with his status as an ‘incompetent’ butler.
But before they could figure out how the ghost umbrella had appeared, they saw the man suddenly stretch his hand into the black mist. As he liften it, he brought forth a dark object from within the black mist… The thing was struggling desperately, and there was a babbling cry that turned out to be like a baby’s!
But it was obviously not a normal baby!
Almost as soon as the baby was pulled out, Su Kun, who was sitting far away from Su Zimo, couldn’t help but scream, and continued screaming again and again.
When everyone looked at him, they found that the treasured ring that Su Kun was wearing on his finger had some problems. The third son of the Su family was clutching his bloody right hand with a pained expression. His fingers appeared to be injured!
To be honest, if it weren’t for Su Kun constantly showing off the ring, the Su family may not remember which hand he wore the inconspicuous ring on, let alone know which finger.
But Su Kun reminded them again and again, letting the Su family determine that something was happening with the ring on Su Kun’s hand at that moment!
The matter didn’t seem to be over yet. After the ring was destroyed, the ghost baby held by the ghost umbrella turned into black mist and struggled again.
Originally, it was impossible for the little ghost’s abilities to get rid of the ghost umbrella, but the moment the ghost umbrella deliberately released his finger, the black mist rushed towards Su Kun and very quickly entered Su Kun’s body!
“Ghost revival!” Although Su Zimo had never truly seen a ghost revival, after seeing the damage to the ghost tool and the backlash from the malicious spirit, he instantly thought of the terrible ghost revivals Ghost Umbrella described that would affect the entire world.
Hearing the exclamation, MY Feng also walked over from the side. He didn’t know what happened because he didn’t see the ghost baby, but he found that there was a strange person behind Su Zimo.
After all, normal people didn’t hold umbrellas over the dinner table at night. Nor did they look demonic, so at first glance, he wasn’t a good person.
Mu Feng just wanted to see off the guests, but he noticed Su Kun on the other side of the table. That third son who was a bit yin-yang usually, but only liked to speak bad things behind people’s backs, had his eyes rolled just now?”
“Mu Feng, prepare a car and take him to the hospital!” Su Gan was shocked when he saw Su Kun’s eyes roll while shaking, and his hand was still bleeding. “Let the maid help him stop the bleeding first.”
[Don’t touch him.] The ghost umbrella behind Su Zimo spoke. [Come behind me.]
“Don’t touch Third Uncle yet. Ghost Umbrella always has a reason to say so.” Su Zimo didn’t know much about ghost revival, so he could only trust Ghost Umbrella’s understanding of the matter.
Su Hewen was the first to get up and pulled Su Gan to stand behind Su Zimo. The second one who ran over turned out to be Su Duan, who was sitting opposite Su Kun. He looked terrified and rushed directly behind the ghost umbrella.
Su Duan, the second son of the Su family, was usually hated by Su Kun. He was wild and overbearing, but when he encountered anything strange, he became the fastest person.
[And you, get at least one hundred meters away from here.] Ghost Umbrella frowned and looked at Mu Feng. [You also have a ghost tool with a malicious spirit on your body. If you stay here, it will be affected into an unstable state by the ghost tool’s revival.]
Will a ghost tool’s revival affect the surrounding ghost tools?
Su Zimo imagined the scene for a moment, and somehow understood why the ‘other world’ Ghost Umbrella mentioned would fall into chaos among ghost tool revival.
“Housekeeper Mu, go to the backyard and wait for a while.” Su Zimo opened his mouth, and Mu Feng had to obey, but he touched the Demonic Baby Jade Seal around his neck and left in a daze.
[Yiya–] <sup>1</sup>
The baby’s voice strangely came from Su Kun, who was shaking the entire time, then everyone could see the red bloodshot vessels spread from Su Kun’s right hand, along his arm, up to the shoulder, to the neck, then finally to his face, making his entire face become extremely ugly. The awkward babble instantly turned into a roar.
In the next second, Su Zimo watched Su Kun suddenly leap onto the Su family’s table with amazing hopping ability, then rush at them with such speed that Su Zimo, who had strengthened his eyesight twice, still found somewhat unclear.
Su Kun’s exposed skin began to become scorched like the ghost baby’s from before.
With Su Zimo’s eyesight, he could see that Su Kun opened his mouth as he rushed toward him. The big red mouth was instantly gaping, then a lot of fishy-smelling red liquid came from ‘Su Kun’s’ mouth, squirting out and directly striking him.
“Bang.”
The black umbrella already stood in front of Su Zimo like a shield at that moment. The handle of the ghost umbrella was lifted, and the tip of the umbrella pierced directly into Su Kun’s jaw. It took almost no effort on Ghost Umbrella’s part. Su Kun swayed to the side, like a fish hanging from the tip of an umbrella.
At the same time, the red liquid that had been blocked by the umbrella’s surface was tossed away.
The splashing liquid avoided the people behind Su Zimo, landing on the carpet around them, as well as Su Kun, who fell onto the carpet.
The liquid was like the worst sulfuric acid. The moment it touched the carpet and the human body, it made a ‘zi zi–‘ sound. Then the contaminated carpet was completely destroyed. Even the marble under the carpet was ruined!
“We can’t let Su Kun have an accident here.” Although Su Zimo understood that Su Kun wanted to kill him -so much that the first thing he did after the ghost revival was attack him – he still believed that Su Kun shouldn’t have an accident in Shoushan.
After all, this wasn’t the true end of the world.
“Is there any way?” Su Zimo asked in a low voice to the ghost umbrella that had been naturally guarding him.
[He wants to kill you. No mercy at all.] The ghost umbrella seemed a little reluctant to rescue him.
“You don’t need to return him to his previous state, he can be sent to the hospital.” Su Zimo’s tone at that moment made the people behind him believe they had fallen into an ice cellar. The most complicated expression belonged to Su Duan, who was used to acting upon his brotherhood with Su Kun.
[Okay…] Ghost Umbrella reluctantly agreed. [If you want to solve the revived ghost problem, you can only remove the host and the ghost together. Otherwise, the previous world wouldn’t have become so terrible. But if boss is willing to waste a Shouhua, you may be able to prevent things from getting worse.]
“Shouhua?” Su Zimo glanced subconsciously at the box in Su Gan’s hand, and the others followed his gaze toward the somewhat inconspicuous box.
[The reason why the malicious spirit revolted after it revived was because the host’s body began to die under it’s influence. But if the host uses a Shouhua to prolong his life, even if he can’t wake up, it will be able to temporarily keep him alive. Although, it won’t be a long life.] Ghost Umbrella looked at Su Zimo. [Boss, no matter what world we’re in, this is something only you can do.]
The only Shouhua was a gift from Su Zimo, so it was difficult for him to make a decision regarding something that no longer belonged to him.
“Shouhua, is it the flower?” Su Gan walked up with the box. “Momo is right. Su Kun absolutely can’t have an accident here. If it’s this flower, then I can decide about my gift, right?”
“How do I use it?” Su Gan didn’t continue asking Su Zimo, but looked directly at the ghost umbrella.
[Outsiders can’t touch Shouhua. Just throw the flower on his skin.] Ghost Umbrella turned sideways so that Su Gan could see Su Kun, whose body had blackened and was charred by the red liquid. [He can’t hold on for long.]
Su Gan stopped speaking, walked over, and overturned the box. With a reluctant expression as he stared right at him, he threw the Shouhua onto Su Kun’s face.
The moment the Shouhua touched his kin, the white flower turned into white starlight and slowly merged with Su Kun’s body.
[Shouhua not only extends life, but also helps people avoid death.] Ghost Umbrella turned to the side to look at Su Zimo, then suddenly said something that moved him. [Even if it’s a fatal situation, as long as there’s enough Shouhua for a blessing, the human soul will be trapped within the body. It will have nowhere to go until the end of their life.]
At that moment, Su Zimo recalled that four years after the car accident, he was trapped in his body and couldn’t control it no matter how hard he struggled.
