Chapter 26: Snow White
Although in a spiritual state, Li Pai could still feel the chill from the other entity.
The two... should be two spirits, pressed closely together, hiding behind a massive dead tree.
Li Pai's mind was filled with question marks.
But he knew it wasn't the time to ask questions.
The ghost also had plenty of question marks in its mind.
This guy, he clearly had a physical body before, so how did he turn into a spirit here?
Could he switch between these two states freely?
It would be so nice if they could master that ability!
Currently, she couldn't leave this forest due to her fear of sunlight.
If she could have a physical body, the problem would be solved.
"Is there something over there?"
"Could it be a magical creature!"
A voice from not far away in the direction of the campfire asked.
"Where did you hear that? You must be mistaken!"
"This place is very close to the royal city; there can't possibly be magical creatures or ghosts here."
A voice responded irritably.
"Hey, do you think the queen's bounty is reliable?"
"Ten thousand gold coins, plus a level-three hunting magic item, all just to chase down a ghost?"
"It makes us making money too easily, it’s suspicious!"
A coarser voice inquired.
"Easy money? Do you think only the two of us took this job?"
"According to some insider information, at least twenty Demon Hunters in the royal city have taken on this job!"
"This reward isn't easy to claim!"
A voice responded irritably.
"It's just a ghost!"
"As long as we find it first, the reward is definitely ours."
After saying this, he started to laugh.
"Don't think that way!"
"I've heard that this ghost infiltrated the palace alone and killed the princess."
"With that kind of power, don't underestimate it!"
"What! That thing killed the princess? I must kill it then!"
"The princess was so beautiful... such a pity..."
"Enough about that... wanna play cards?"
"Let's play!!!"
The conversation between the two gradually ceased, and the sound of playing cards followed...
Li Pai looked at the ghost clinging to him and felt that her emotions were somewhat unstable.
A chill emanated from her.
Could it be... she's feeling murderous intent?
Li Pai sensed a hint of danger.
Was this intent aimed at him? Or the two Demon Hunters?
Li Pai wasn't sure.
After waiting for a while, the ghost removed the little hand covering Li Pai's mouth.
With a glance, she signaled to leave this place first before discussing anything further.
Li Pai nodded in agreement.
For Li Pai right now, Demon Hunters were the most fearsome enemies.
As for this ghost... she could barely be considered the same kind.
It's better to follow her lead for now.
After all, looking at their speeds, if this ghost truly intended to deal with him, he wouldn't be able to escape.
The two spirits floated in the same direction, one after the other.
After a few minutes, the ghost stopped and turned to look at Li Pai.
The ghost didn't speak, and Li Pai wasn't sure what to say either.
An awkward silence hung in the air.
"I know a good hairstylist, Tony Laoshi. Should I introduce you?"
Li Pai decided to break the silence.
The ghost furrowed her brows, and a chill instantly emanated from her.
"If you're not getting a haircut, you could at least get a wash and blow dry..."
Li Pai knew he might be messing up the conversation and quickly added.
"Don't even think about touching my hair!"
The ghost glared at Li Pai fiercely.
Li Pai's heart skipped a beat.
Such a strange feeling!
Before, when this ghost was staring at him, he was too frightened to even stand straight.
But now...
Why did he feel like when she glared at him just now, it was kind of cute?
Could this be the attraction of... similar beings?
Something's not right...
Li Pai felt a bit bewildered.
"How... how do you switch back and forth between being a living person and a spirit?"
"And why can you teleport to another place instantly?"
"Do you have magical artifacts on you?"
The ghost fired a series of questions.
"Before all that, you should at least introduce yourself..."
Li Pai shrugged.
Since returning to reality once, Li Pai's sense of fear towards this game had decreased considerably.
Even though this place was real, it was still a game.
He could leave if he wanted to.
Thinking this way, Li Pai didn't seem as scared anymore.
"I..."
"I'm called Snow White Huaite."
The ghost fell silent for a moment before revealing her name.
"This name... sounds a bit familiar."
"It feels like the name of a princess I've seen in a certain Disney movie."
Li Pai rubbed his chin.
"Triggering main quest 'Snow White'"
"She's enchantingly beautiful, envy-inducing..."
"Unfortunately, she has also faced jealousy..."
"Please help her break free from the curse and reclaim everything that belongs to her!"
"Quest objective: Help Snow White lift the curse on her."
The voice of the system resounded in Li Pai's mind.
"Snow... Snow White!!!"
Li Pai's eyes widened, and he blurted out, looking like he had seen a ghost.
"Are you telling me that this is Snow White??"
"This appearance! This is Snow White?!"
"Beautiful? Where's the beauty? In your heart, perhaps?"
Li Pai roared in his mind.
If you said this appearance was the Evil Queen's, Li Pai would believe it.
But to say this is Snow White...
Li Pai felt like his intelligence was being toyed with.
"Have you heard of me?"
"Yes, I am the princess of the Kingdom of Sunset."
Snow White nodded.
"My stepmother... the one my father married, cursed me with the most malicious curse, transforming me into my current appearance."
"Not only that, she also spread the word that I was harmed by an ghost."
"Now, I'm even labeled as the murderer of the princess..."
"The most exceptional Demon Hunters in the royal city have been sent out to hunt me down everywhere."
"I urgently need a physical body so I can leave this forest and seek revenge against that old witch in the royal city."
"I chose to find someone from the Baitte family because their bloodline abilities are very powerful. If I could possess their body, my chances of revenge would increase."
Snow White recounted her experiences and explained why she had infiltrated the Elora family's residence.
At the same time, the black color in Snow White's eyes faded a bit, revealing the whites of her eyes, and the blood vessel patterns on her face receded, making her appear much more delicate.
"Snow White Relationship Level: 10%"
After Snow White finished speaking, Li Pai directly gained some relationship level points.
"The 'Broken Beauty' level isn't even maxed out, and now we have Snow White..."
"Broken Beauty... Snow White..."
"Why does it feel like everything is related to fairy tales?"
"Are they going to introduce Little Red Riding Hood and Cinderella next..."
Li Pai felt like he was starting to grasp some pattern.
It's all so fairy tale-like!
However, this fairy tale seemed a bit off. Where would you find a princess like this...
Just as Li Pai was about to continue speaking, a faint sound came from behind!
"Swish—"
It was a crossbow bolt!!!
