The Villain's Redemption Chapter 146 Scared of Ghosts

Chapter 146 Scared of Ghosts

The loud sound of the wind made Fang Yu tremble. She snapped her eyes shut, hands clinging to Mo Li's arms.

"Are you alright?" Worried, Mo Li's brows furrowed as he looked at Fang Yu. Her face turned so pale it looked like a sheet of paper. Her palms were sweaty and large beads of sweat could be seen trickling down her forehead. "Hey, Is everything alright?" He put the back of his palms on her forehead. "Are you sick?" Did traveling between dimensions made Fang Yu sick?

"I— Are we safe?"

"We are alive." Mo Li stated. Alive but not safe. Definitely not safe.

"Can you see a ghost somewhere?" her voice trembled. It was as if lightning hit Mo Li's head. His brain completely stopped working. Was she scared of ghosts?

"Of course not." He watched as Fang Yu slowly opened her eyes and stared at his face.

"We are in the ghost dimension." He didn't miss the hint of fear in her voice.

"And?"

"Well… we are bound to see ghosts!"

"You are scared of ghosts?"

"We can't touch them." Fang Yu said. She didn't know where this feeling came from. Just the thought of Ghosts was enough to make her tremble with fright.

Mo Li stared at her, confused. "Do you think you can't touch ghosts?" He immediately wondered where did this come from.

"Can we?"

"Of course, we can. This their world, ghosts are just like humans. I mean the strong ones. We can see weak ghosts but we can't touch them and it's the other way around. They can't hurt us either. You should be more worried about the ghosts that you can see and touch. Meaning, they are strong and can touch you too."

Fang Yu turned silent before she involuntarily s.h.i.+vered. In her mind, images of women with white clothes and blood swirled. She closed her eyes again.

"You should calm down. I am here. I won't let them hurt you."

His voice sent some small a.s.surance inside her. She nodded and slowly open her eyes. Seeing her calm down, Mo Li smiled. ���We should find someplace where we could make some cave. So we can rest. I know that creating the portal was quite exhausting for you." He said as he inhaled the scent of the Ghost Dimension. The last time that he was here, he almost lost his consciousness because he used an artifact that he just made to forcibly open a portal. Now, however, It was very different. He felt stronger and lighter. Of course, he knew this was because of Fang Yu's s.p.a.ce magic.

The two started walking until they reached an unoccupied mountain. Mo Li used his abilities to carve a cave just enough for the two of them to rest. Then he surrounded the inside of the cave with ice. Something very rare in this world.

"Hey, tell me about the Ghosts living in this world." Until now, Fang Yu couldn't help but tremble. Just the thought that they are actually in a world full of ghosts was enough to scare her.

"People here�� can't use elements. They have their own cultivation but the goal is to strengthen their soul so they could touch objects, build houses, and act like humans. " He started speaking. "Once they can touch objects, they can start to enjoy the things that humans do like eating and taking a bath and sleeping."

"So you are saying that the ones that can't touch objects don't sleep too?"

"Yes."

"What about their appearance?" She sat opposite him and watched as Mo Li started steeping her favorite tea.

"They look like humans, animals look like animals. That's all." He shrugged and lifted an eyebrow. 'Why are you scared of ghosts?" To be honest, this was his first time meeting a cultivator scared of ghosts. In the first place, ghosts didn't exist in the world where Fang Yu came from. Meaning, there was no way that she would be able to know how they look like.

Why would she be scared of something like that?

"I— I have heard of stories about ghosts and women who loved their husbands so much that they didn't leave the world after death. Instead, they stayed in the human world and started hunting their husbands." She s.h.i.+vered at her own lie. Seeing the disbelief in Mo Li's eyes, Fang Yu downed the tea that he just served her. "Hot!" She complained. Everything about this world is making her nervous and now Mo Li was giving her a look full of suspicion!

"I believe you."

"Hm?"

Mo Li smiled. "I believe you." He could see the fear in Fang Yu's eyes. It wasn't some fakery or something that she just made up. She was sincerely scared of ghosts. "It's fine. Ghosts wouldn't hurt us. They know that people who could move between dimensions are powerful enough to wipe their existence completely." He gave him a smile full of a.s.surance.

"Are you sure about that?"

"Yes," Mo Li chucked. "In fact, most Ghosts avoid us. They don't want cultivators… especially demons like me to ruin their peace. They are already living in this place peacefully, hoping that one day, they would be able to reincarnate back into the human world."

"Then… that is good." Fang Yu smiled. "Good." Relief flooded through her. At least the Ghosts are not going to hurt them.

"You should stop thinking about these things and just sleep. Have some rest instead." Mo Li gave her a gentle smile and watched as she nodded. Walking into the bed, Fang Yu realized that being so scared made her weaker than using her ability to open a portal. Being scared is very exhausting!

With this in mind, Fang Yu immediately decided to sleep and recover her strength.

After a day of sleeping, Fang Yu woke up from the smell of fragrant tea. When she realized that Mo Li was having his tea next to her, she immediately smiled and greeted him.

"Recovered?" He didn't wait for her to answer as he lowered his head and kissed her. "I miss you."
