"Master~ Can you hug me~~"

A single word of sound caused the head of the sect, Lin Jichen, to have his brain crash.

What the hell? Did I hear it wrong? Is this an illusion?

But when he saw the shy and pouting Nüba in front of him, he was sure that he had not seen or heard it wrong.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Lin Ji Chen couldn't help but blurt out.

Nüba's face immediately turned red, and she stamped her feet and said angrily, "I admit that I don't know how to do what she does, okay? Humph!!"

Lin Ji Chen inexplicably wanted to laugh at this moment. Seeing her embarrassed look, he actually felt that she was indeed somewhat as cute as Xiao Wan.

Seeing him laugh, Nüba felt even more embarrassed and said fiercely, "You're still laughing? Am I funny?"

"You're overthinking it. I don't mean to laugh at you. I just felt that the way you looked just now was very weird. It wasn't the real you at all." Lin Ji Chen said.

"Why not? I've said it before, Xiao Wan is me. I can be the same as she is. How can it not be real?" Nüba asked back.

Lin Ji Chen explained with a smile: "Although you two are one, you are not pure Xiao Wan after all, and Xiao Wan is not the complete you. You have your own complete personality, and you don't need to deliberately imitate it. Just be yourself."

"You only know how to say nice things. You don't like me being myself, and you don't like me imitating her either. You're really hard to please!" Nüba complained in a muffled voice.

"When did I ask you to coax me?" Lin Ji Chen rolled his eyes.

Nvba said sullenly, "Who made me so cold to you before? You are so dissatisfied with me now. How can I not coax you? I promised Xiaowan that I would treat you well. I am the Ghost Emperor, I can't break my promise."

"Good, you are aware of it. Then you can continue to coax me until I am happy." Lin Ji Chen said proudly with a controlled attitude.

Nüba was not angry, but asked humbly: "How do you want me to make you happy?"

"You have to figure it out yourself. There's a saying that goes, 'Those who are willing do not need to be taught, and those who are not willing cannot be taught.'"

"Is there such a saying? How annoying. I'll figure it out myself."

As Nüba was talking, she hid in the cabin to think gloomily. Before she left, she murmured, "Men are so hard to please. I should have treated you better before..."

Lin Ji Chen almost laughed out loud when she heard this. Shouldn't this be said by a man? How could it be so funny coming from the mouth of a dignified empress like her?

But now he can be sure that the current Nüba is no longer the ruthless emperor. She has Xiaowan's feelings. In her, Xiaowan's shadow is gradually becoming clearer... profound...

The Imperial Palace of the Ghost Realm.

When Lin Ji Chen and Nuba returned here, they were greeted by a group of high-ranking officials from the ghost world as soon as they arrived.

After receiving Lin Jichen's message, Jiang Chen and Hou Qing were very happy to learn that Nüba had recovered and no longer needed to be eliminated by splitting her soul.

After all, getting rid of the split soul is the worst plan. Without a wisp of soul, the damage to Nüba will be permanent. If they had no other choice, they would not want to use this trick.

Now Lin Jichen has helped them dispel this worry. The generals and other ghost kings are very happy, and all officials welcome the return of the empress!

The cultivation level of these more than one hundred high-level ghost world leaders must be at least at the enlightenment realm.

When he saw Nüba on the shuttle and realized that she was no longer crazy and out of control, Jiang Chen finally believed that his master had truly recovered.

"All ghosts, welcome the return of the Great Emperor!"

Jiang Chen took the lead and shouted, and all the ghost cultivators shouted at the same time:

"Welcome back, Great Emperor!!!"

Nuba looked at the ghost cultivators below, her face still with an expression that kept people at a distance, cold and majestic.

Just by glancing over them with her eyes, she could see that except for Jiang Chen and Hou Qing, the other ghost cultivators were already trembling with fear as if they were facing a great enemy.

"During the time when I was out of control, I heard that there was someone who was absent from his post and neglected his duties. If he comes forward, I can consider giving him a lighter punishment."

As soon as Nüba opened her mouth, all the ghost cultivators were silent and filled with fear.

Seeing that no one stood up, Nüba sneered and said, "It seems that during the time I was away, you are no longer afraid of me. Do you think I can't do anything to you?"

At this time, several ghost officials finally stood up and cried miserably: "Lady Empress, you misunderstood. We are just helping to find you. We definitely don't mean to leave our post without permission."

Many ghost ministers also cried out for injustice.

"Lady Empress, we heard that you were missing, so we wanted to look for you."

"Yes, we have mobilized the guards of various ghost towns to conduct a carpet search. If there are evil ghosts taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos, we will also help to quell the chaos. We have no intention of slacking off!"

"It's unfair. Heaven and earth can bear witness to our loyalty to the Empress!"

"Sir, is it wrong to help maintain order in the ghost world?"

...

Hearing everyone's cry of injustice, Nüba did not give in. Instead, she sneered, "Very good, you are starting to collude and unite to force the emperor to abdicate. It seems that if I keep holding on to this matter, you will definitely rebel."

The ghost officials were so frightened that they lost their souls, trembled all over, and knelt down crying that it was a misunderstanding.

Jiang Chen and Hou Qing also changed their expressions.

Jiang Chen stepped forward to smooth things over and said, "Sir, you misunderstood. They really didn't mean that. I can guarantee that."

However, Nüba also seemed to ignore Jiang Chen and asked, "Do they listen to you or me?"

Jiang Chen's expression froze, and he knelt down hurriedly and said, "Of course we will listen to you, Lady Empress! Including me, we are all loyal to you! We have no second thoughts!"

"Well, I now order you to arrest all those who stand up and cry out for justice and bring them to the Soul Calming Tower for thorough interrogation. Anyone who resists will be considered a traitor and executed!"

As soon as Nüba gave the order, there was a cry of grief from below.

Jiang Chen and Hou Qing looked at each other and saw shock and difficulty in accepting each other's eyes.

But thinking back to when the empress first came to power, it seemed like this, without any mercy, ruthless and impartial, even cold-blooded and heartless.

Even loyal subordinates will not escape severe punishment if they make mistakes.

Now that the empress has recovered, her style of doing things seems to have not changed at all.

Jiang Chen and Hou Qing could only accept it with a wry smile. There was nothing they could do about it. It was because Nüba had always acted like this, overbearing, authoritarian, and tyrannical. In the ghost world, anyone who opposed her would be punished most cruelly.

Although the ghost officials below were not convinced in their hearts, they even regretted not helping Ying Gou defeat Nüba and take over the ghost world.

But it's too late to say anything now. Ying Gou has long become a thing of the past. The winner is the king and the loser is the villain. Now the strongest person in the ghost world is only Nüba.

Even if she ordered them all to be executed now, they would not have the ability or courage to resist.

To put it nicely, Nüba is a tyrant; to put it bluntly, she is a typical person with low emotional intelligence and does not know how to control her subordinates.

Just when the general was about to reluctantly carry out the empress's order, a figure suddenly walked out of the cabin of the shuttle and began to scold and lecture their high and mighty empress.
