Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?

Chapter 629: The Boy



Ruan Xiang didn't want Ruan Manman to interrupt, but no matter what he said, Ruan Manman wouldn't listen.

However, Jiang Yingxue just said something lightly, and Ruan Manman turned around and left without a moment's pause.

"Big brother and sister-in-law are coming tomorrow, come early," Ruan Xiang called out from the doorway into the hallway.

Then there was silence for about ten seconds before Ruan Manman's voice sounded.

"I got it."

She could bicker with Ruan Xiang about anything, except when it came to matters concerning their older brother, she couldn't bring any emotion into it.

As they say, a big brother is like a father; their older brother and sister-in-law were truly like a father and mother. No matter how bad her mood was, Ruan Manman dared not bring any emotion into matters involving her older brother.

Shen Siyuan quietly gave Jiang Yingxue a thumbs up.

Jiang Yingxue cheekily winked at him, feeling a bit proud.

Seeing Ruan Manman leave, the few of them didn't delay any longer and went downstairs.

Today the family was going on an outing, and under normal circumstances, Shen Siyuan, as the "son-in-law," should be driving.

But Shen Siyuan didn't even have a driver's license, so in the end, they had to trouble Ruan Hongzhuang.

As Ruan Hongzhuang drove, she muttered, "I should have brought Taozi back too."

Sitting in the back, Jiang Yingxue glanced at her through the rearview mirror.

It seemed that the three of them got along well. Surprisingly, her daughter wasn't even a bit jealous, which she didn't expect.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Shen Siyuan didn't chime in but took out his phone for a glance.

Ruan Hongzhuang's wish may soon come true, but who knows if she will be truly happy about it then.

-----------------

Meanwhile, Duoduo was flying back mid-air to tell Shen Siyuan about meeting Yan Weiyi.

She didn't directly bring him to Shen Siyuan because Yan Weiyi couldn't fly, making it inconvenient to bring him along.

It was better to report back to her brother first. Whether her brother would go meet him, or send her to capture him into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, it would be much more efficient.

Duoduo thought she was clever, but she forgot that her "Shake" could have brought Yan Weiyi in and then released him once she met Shen Siyuan.

At this moment, Dou Dou was feeling much more carefree.

She landed on a food street, looking at the colorful stalls and various delicacies, swallowing some nonexistent saliva.

Although she couldn't feel hunger and therefore didn't have an appetite, appetite isn't just caused by hunger. Smell, taste, and sight can also trigger one's appetite.

So Dou Dou started to inhale at each stall.

"I inhale, I inhale, I inhale..."

"Hey, kid, that's mine. Where did you come from? How come I've never seen you before?"

Just as Dou Dou was immersed in the pleasure brought by "Eat Qi," a voice disturbed her.

Dou Dou looked toward the direction of the voice and saw a little boy with his arms crossed, looking at her with a "fierce" expression.

The little boy was chubby, probably around thirteen or fourteen, with a big face, big nose, but very small eyes, looking quite comical.

"Little brother, are you dead too?"

Dou Dou wasn't afraid at all. After all, she could breathe fire, and she had the Little Old Axe, which was incredibly powerful.

Of course, it mainly had to do with her outgoing and fearless nature.

"Oh right, I'm a ghost, are you scared?" the little boy immediately said.

"I'm a ghost too, why should ghosts be afraid of ghosts?" Dou Dou asked, a bit puzzled.

"People fear people, don't they? So why can't ghosts be afraid of ghosts?" the little boy retorted.

Dou Dou scratched her head, finding the little brother's reasoning quite sound.

"Get out of here quickly, this is my favorite fried tofu," the little boy said domineeringly.

Dou Dou was a bit surprised and pointed at the fried tofu lady boss asking, "Is that your mom?"

The stall owner was a chubby woman, stout with a face full of meaty flesh, looking quite formidable.

This remark obviously angered the little boy. He said angrily, "She's your mom."

Dou Dou replied earnestly, "She's not my mom. My mom doesn't look like that; I know my mom."

Little boy: ...

"Get away quickly, you've already eaten a whole batch that just came out and taken all the flavor away," the little boy reached out to push Dou Dou.

Dou Dou's body immediately floated back but didn't fall over.

But this action angered Dou Dou: "Why are you pushing me? I'm angry now."

"Oh, so what if you're angry?" The little boy sneered at her, full of disdain.

"I'll... I'll beat you up," Dou Dou said angrily, clenching her small fists.

"Beat me up? Hahaha... you little peanut, can you take me on?"

The little boy raised his arm, which was almost as thick as Dou Dou's leg.

"I... I can breathe fire, and I'll burn you to death," Dou Dou threatened fiercely.

"Idiot, I'm already dead, can I die again? And breathe fire, I can squirt water,"

The little boy said, and then he started sputtering at Dou Dou.

Although there was no actual spit, the insult was strong.

Dou Dou was also furious. Are you treating my words like farts?

So she put her hands on her hips and howled at the boy.

A ghostly blue flame spewed from her into the air, covering the little boy's face.

The little boy screamed and stepped back, frantically slapping his face.

But soon realized that besides being startled, nothing else happened.

Dou Dou was also stunned. Why couldn't my flame burn him? Did I not spray it out just now?

Thinking of this, Dou Dou lifted her head and let out another howl, and a pillar of ghostly blue fire shot into the sky.

"Haha, so what if you breathe fire? Are you a circus clown?"

Seeing the flames unable to reach him, the little boy became smug again.

Dou Dou scratched her head, feeling a bit bewildered herself.

Actually, the ghostly blue flame on Dou Dou was Netherworld Fire, which burns karma. The little boy wasn't really a bad person, with no karma on him at all, so it naturally couldn't burn him.

Had it been a human soul, with some karma on it, her flame would effectively ignite them, like adding fuel to fire, instantly setting it ablaze.

"Heh heh heh..."

The little boy made humming sounds to intimidate Dou Dou.

Seeing the flames were useless, Dou Dou wasn't panicked. She still had the Netherworld Fire Fireflies and the Little Brain Axe.

So she reached to her back and pulled out a small axe.

The little boy was startled again at the sight.

But quickly regained composure, stretching his arm toward her, saying: "Come on, come on, chop me and see if I'm scared, see if you can hit me?"

Wowza, someone actually made such a request! Hearing this, Dou Dou didn't hold back.

Immediately, she swung the small axe in her hand with a chop toward the boy's arm.

She had reduced her strength, but even so, left a huge gash on his arm.

"Wah~"

The pain of a torn soul made the little boy burst into tears.
