Nan Geng, emperor of Great Yu, dies a sudden and miserable death, only to become a frail evil spirit. He can’t lift a finger, and the entire city is hunting him.
Nan Geng rushes to seek out his former subordinate and cling to him for protection.
But it turns out his former subordinate has fallen on hard times. He’s lost his position, and grown more and more peculiar. When they reunite as human and spirit, he isn’t shocked or surprised. In fact, he seems a little... perverted.
“You’re not allowed to speak.”
Nan Geng shuts his mouth.
“Run again and I’ll break your legs. Believe me?”
Nan Geng pulls his legs in.
“I miss you. When are you coming back?”
Nan Geng, standing right in front of Sui Yi, falls silent:
I should’ve stayed buried in the ground!
