After Being Hounded by a Powerful Figure from Fengdu

Originally titled What Should I Do If the Ghost King Sets His Sights on Me?

Luo Yao is an ordinary security guard, and he figures he'll live an ordinary life just like everyone else. That is, until six months ago, after his birthday, when he suddenly started encountering all sorts of strange things.

For example, after a late shift, he was wondering where to grab a midnight snack when he ran into a woman with no eyes who kept asking him for directions. Or an amiable-looking auntie by the resettlement apartments who always tried to introduce him to a wife. Or a headless person who kept following him and insisted he help find their head...

He thought he was cursed, so he had a bunch of exorcism rituals performed over the course of a month. None of them worked.

Just as he was racking his brains over what to do next, a man in an ancient robe, with long, flowing hair, latched onto him and told him the only way to save him was to absorb his vital energy.

He thought that was the end of it, but then two senior fellow disciples appeared out of nowhere and told him he had extraordinary bones and talent, and was suited to cultivation and even had a chance of becoming an immortal!

Luo Yao: ?????

Second Senior Brother: Little San Tu, don't be scared. Put your talents to use and be as bold as you like! Big Brother here will protect you!

First Senior Brother: Your senior brother will take good care of you! Don't listen to your second senior brother!

Ghost King Wu Shu: They're both bad people! They both want to absorb your vital energy! I'm the only one allowed to do that! You're mine!

Luo Yao: ?????

The two senior brothers: San Tu, did you just feel a wave of yin energy?

Luo Yao takes a step back: Trust me, you imagined it. Really!

[Bonus Scene 1]

Luo Yao has a falling-out with the Ghost King and runs away from home, only to get possessed by an evil ghost. He shouts into the air, "Hey, you ghost! Something's picking on me!"

Ghost King Wu Shu appears, swallows the evil ghost in one bite, then obediently crouches down and looks up at him. "I did a good job just now, right?"

The poor evil ghost: ?????

[Bonus Scene 2]

Luo Yao gets mad again.

The Ghost King picks up a dagger and is just about to carve an apology into the table...

That table's an antique! Luo Yao cries out in distress, "Let go of the table! If you've got a problem, take it up with me!"

The Ghost King drops the dagger, overjoyed. "Really? Then can I absorb your vital energy?"
