Chapter 25

Ch . 25 Ghost Bus

Tang Guangyuan’s hand struggled unconsciously, slowly losing strength . The more energy he used, the more energy he wasted .   

He noticed Chi Yan, and reached out towards him . “He . . he…” a hoa.r.s.e cry escaped his throat . He had a mournful expression on his face .


Chi Yan immediately took two steps forwards only to find himself powerless to help–Tang Guangyuan clearly didn’t have anything on his throat . It was as if he was being strangled by air .

Chi Yan could feel a ice-cold aura beside him . He knew that there was a “person” following him and involuntarily trembled . He already guessed who it was .

It’s Ye Yingzhi . He found him .


Chi Yan could even somewhat hear his light chuckles and feel his icy breath on him .


Tang Guangyuan’s hand gradually lost strength until it could only hang down his side, his breathing slowly becoming weaker and weaker . Only his eyes were still looking towards Chi Yan’s direction .

Chi Yan couldn’t bear to watch anymore . Seeing a person lose their life because of him while he couldn’t do anything to help nearly triggered a nervous breakdown . He forcefully pulled himself together . He used his intuition to face the invisible “person” by his side . Chi Yan even tried to reach out to grab the other’s hand, the way he used to try to make up with Ye Yingzhi whenever he was angry .

He originally expected to feel nothing but air, that he wouldn’t be able to grab anything . But his hand actually met with a cold body .

Even though Chi Yan couldn’t see him, he could still touch him .

Chi Yan suddenly stiffened .

He recalled the sigh he heard earlier–

“Why didn’t you come home? I waited for you all night… . ”

Old Master Tang’s life was still hanging by a thread, barely breathing enough to stay alive . He looked like a man on his deathbed .

Chi Yan shut his eyes, not daring to watch anymore . However, he slowly approached the “man” next to him . Like how he he used to act spoiled as he admitted his mistakes in the past, Chi Yan hugged Ye Yingzhi’s waist as he leaned closely towards him .

In this intimate posture, teardrops had already unknowingly dripped down his face . Surprise, fear, terror, worry–all that pushed someone to their limits and make them have such a natural response was present .

He held onto Ye Yingzhi tightly, choking with sobs as he pleaded: “Yingzhi, please let him go . I’m begging you, please let him go okay… . Everything was my fault, don’t involve others . Let’s go home, let’s go home okay? Yingzhi, I’m begging please… . ”

He was already completely incoherent . His brain couldn’t even register what he said or did . He could only beg and placade the other, his tear-stained lips repeatedly kissed the other’s icy neck and cheeks . Towards the end, he couldn’t even speak in sentences, barely able to whisper the other’s name, sobbing and repeating “Yingzhi,” “please,” “go home” over and over again .

Who knew how long this went on for, as Chi Yan’s nerves were pushed to the limits his perception of time became nothing but a haze . He felt the “man” beside him finally move, the invisible rope that wrapped around Tang Guangyuan’s neck was suddenly released .

Tang Guangyuan laid on the ground, immediately coughing and wheezing up a storm .

Immediately, Chi Yan felt an arm wrap around his waist, and the person beside him bent over to kiss his earlobe . A deep voice said: “Keep your promise . I’ll wait for you at home . ”

Then, the arm let go and suddenly everything abruptly returned to being peaceful . Chi Yan weakly looked around, at loss of what to do . Only a bit of coldness lingered on his ears and waist .

Just like he suddenly appeared and nearly took away a life, Ye Yingzhi suddenly disappeared .

Chi Yan promptly hurried over to Tang Old Master and helped him sit up, patting his back to help him recover . After a long while, Tang Guangyuan finally recovered and slowly got up holding onto Chi Yan’s arm . He tried to speak but found that he still couldn’t . He could only gesture for Chi Yan to help him back to his bedroom .

Beside Tang Guangyuan’s bed was a telephone and an address book . He opened the address book to Ms . Gui’s number, indicating for Chi Yan to call her over . Then, he waved his hand towards Chi Yan, with an expression of sorrow and self-blame, hoa.r.s.ely said: “You… should go . ”

Chi Yan nodded .

The Old Master continued to exhaust himself, throat squeezing out his next words: “I’m… sorry, can’t help… for now . ”

Chi Yan quickly stopped him: “Please don’t speak anymore . It’s me who’s sorry . I’m the one who got you involved and caused you great harm . ”

Tang Guangyuan waved his hand and didn’t speak anymore .

Chi Yan waited until Ms . Gui arrived before leaving . He looked very calm, as if the helpless person panicking and begging for help wasn’t him .

He said: “Thank you for helping me this time . I’ve already thought it through . Originally I was the one who took Ye Yingzhi’s ashes without permission . Taking without permission is improper . Besides, the ashes I stole belonged to a proper gentlemen . It’s me who owed him first . This time when I go back, I’ll repay him however he wants . I’ll repay everything that I owe . This is karma . You don’t need to worry about me . ”

He forced a slight smile and bowed towards Tang Guangyuan in apology .

The worst case scenario was only death, he thought as he lowered his eyes .

Tang Guanyuan was still wheezing . He watched as Chi Yan apologized once again before leaving . In the end he couldn’t say a single word .

When Chi Yan left the villa, it was already almost 11:00 . This area was a little obscure . Cars seldom pa.s.s by, not to mention taxi . He didn’t bring his phone so he could only rush towards the bus stop, hoping to catch the last bus .

Just before reaching the bus stop, he saw a bus stopped there . All the buses here can take him back near his place, so he didn’t even check before running towards the bus . He rushed in, quickly paying the bus fee .

Just before reaching the bus stop, he saw a bus stopped there . All the buses here can take him back near his place, so he didn’t even check before running towards the bus . He rushed in, quickly paying the bus fee .

The bus driver kept looking straight ahead, not reacting to him at all . The bus was really empty . Besides Chi Yan, there only 3 or 4 pa.s.sengers scattered around . Chi Yan scanned around a bit before choosing a seat in the back .

The last bus waits a bit too long . It wasn’t until 2 minutes after he sat down that the bus shakily started up . Chi Yan sat in a daze as he looked out the window at the pitch-black streetscape . He didn’t know what exactly was waiting for him at home . He only knew that he had nowhere to run and nowhere to hide .

Through today’s events, Ye Yingzhi has already made it very clear . Old Master Tang was powerless against him, and even almost lost his life . The monks and Taoists Chi Yan met throughout his life could barely protect him from ordinary ghosts, so how could they be of any help against the Ye Yingzhi who strikes terror amongst all evil things?

This whole time, he was lost in thought . He didn’t have a watch or a phone or anything that could tell time . He only knew that the bus kept moving and the window was still pitch-black . They probably haven’t gotten very far, but he didn’t know how long it’s been . Suddenly, he had a moment of clarity–something wasn’t right . This is a public bus . Why haven’t they stopped at all after such a long time? This whole time, no one needed to get on or off at all?

After realizing this detail, he became alert . He temporarily refrained himself from thinking about his family’s Ye YIngzhi and secretly paid attention to what was inside the bus .

He silently counted at a normal pace to 300 . The bus kept going forward at the same pace, no curves on the road, no changing lanes, no b.u.mps . It was as if the road only had one vehicle . Even the scenery never changed . It was still a foggy blanket of black . From an unknown distance, there was a cold white light–Chi Yan originally thought that it was the city lights .

Chi Yan’s hand tightened into a fist as he focused on the pa.s.sengers in the front . When he got on the bus, his mind was occupied and he was in a hurry . He hadn’t really paid attention to those people . The way he glossed over multiple abnormalities as similar to when he was trapped in an illusion by Ye Yingzhi . Only now did he suddenly realize so many discrepancies .

The 4 pa.s.sengers, including the driver, made 5 people . All of them wore dark clothes and long sleeves, solemnly sitting up straight, without the slightest movement . This was completely different from how usually most people had their heads down looking at their phones .

The bus’s incandescent was deathly pale, and under such light, none of them had shadows .
