Chapter 483: The “Undead Knight” Protagonist

After eliminating the ghostly creatures.

Fu Xue and Mo Xiaobai quickly left the underground ruins.

They returned to the dilapidated village and regrouped with Xu Ruochu and the others.

Seeing Fu Xue return, the three Special Management Bureau members, who had been anxiously pacing, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With the signal restored, they immediately contacted the S City Special Management Bureau, requesting a rescue team to come pick them up—

Given their recent helicopter crash, they specifically requested the rescue team to come by car, not helicopter.

This meant they would have to wait for some time.

During the wait.

They learned that Mo Xiaobai, the young Daoist who had saved them, was also planning to head to S City.

So they enthusiastically invited him to join them.

A little farther away.

An excited Fu Xue, still buzzing from her strange experience, was whispering about her adventure to Xu Ruochu.

After finishing her story, she still felt unsatisfied and wanted to share it with someone else.

She thought of Wang Haoran, but since he was likely still in the ancient martial world, she couldn’t reach him by phone.

So, she picked up her phone and called her Sister Ning—

“That’s what happened!”

Fueled by the excitement of hearing Wang Haoran’s voice, she quickly recounted the entire event.

When Wang Haoran told her to stay put and wait for him to come pick her up.

“Mm-hmm!” She happily agreed.

After hanging up.

“Wang Haoran, that guy…”

“He usually acts indifferent, but the moment he hears something happened to me, he gets so anxious…”

“He even wants to come all the way here to pick me up…”

“Such a tsundere!”

Fu Xue began to feel smug.

Meanwhile, Xue Jinghong, enjoying the nourishment of the Pure Wood Elemental Body from within the ring.

Hearing Fu Xue casually “spill the beans” about her existence to so many people, couldn’t help but feel exasperated:

“Xiaoxue, why… why are you telling everyone about me?”

While secrecy wasn’t strictly necessary, there was no need to broadcast it to everyone either!

But Fu Xue simply giggled, “Master, it’s fine! They’re all my people!”

“……”

However, thinking about Wang Haoran, Fu Xue suddenly remembered something—

“Master, your name is Xue Jinghong.”

After spending time together, Fu Xue naturally knew that Wang Haoran’s mother was also named Xue Jinghong.

“My mother-in-law… I mean, a friend’s mother has the same name!”

Having gone so long without speaking to anyone, Xue Jinghong was eager to chat with her new disciple.

“Is that so? What a coincidence!”

She chuckled internally—friend? More like *that kind* of friend, right?

Just now, during Fu Xue’s phone call.

Xue Jinghong could clearly sense her disciple’s excitement and joy.

So, the man on the other end of the call was most likely her disciple’s crush!

“Looks like I share the same name as Xiaoxue’s future mother-in-law!”

Sigh, who would’ve thought I’d run into someone with the same name one day!

“How amusing!”

……

……

Soon.

The remote mountainside village welcomed another visitor.

The first to arrive, of course, was Wang Haoran, who had driven like a madman to get there.

He was so anxious that he hadn’t even grabbed Old Mo to act as his driver; instead, he drove himself.

Pedal to the metal, speeding like the wind, all to check on “the troubled Fu Xue.”

When he finally stepped out of the car amidst a cloud of dust kicked up by the wheels—

“Wang Haoran, we’re over here!”

The eagerly waiting Fu Xue immediately ran over with Xu Ruochu.

She had already believed that Wang Haoran came because he was worried about her.

And now, seeing how “frantic” he looked, she was even happier.

“I told you I was fine; you didn’t have to rush over like this!”

Feeling like it was a “double blessing” kind of day, Fu Xue’s joy was written all over her face.

“Haoran Brother!” Xu Ruochu, harboring similar thoughts, also walked over.

Both of them looked up at Wang Haoran with delight.

“I’m just glad you’re okay.”

Wang Haoran smiled at the two women.

But internally, he was scanning for the suspected protagonist, Mo Xiaobai—

“The little Daoist…”

“Hmm… clean-cut features, carefree demeanor…”

“Looks like it’s him!”

Well, there was only one Daoist here, so Wang Haoran immediately spotted him.

Looking at Mo Xiaobai in the distance, he used his “Appraisal” skill—

–

[Mo Xiaobai: Protagonist of “When the Supernatural Descends: Raising the Ghost Empress Made Me Invincible!”]

– Protagonist Halo: 1200

But to his surprise, after leaving the mountain, he stumbled upon an absolutely stunning female ghost.
And she turned out to be… a big shot!?
Thus, in an era where demonic gates opened and supernatural phenomena descended.
While others struggled to survive in fear of ghosts.
Mo Xiaobai, protected by the “Ghost Empress,” lived a carefree life:
– “Ghost Madam, you wouldn’t want anything to happen to your son, would you?”
– “Ghost School Belle? Come, let me teach you how to study properly!”
– “Ghost Maid? Perfect! My house needs someone to warm the bed!”
– “Ghost Loli? Just right! Big Brother has the Pure Yang Body you love!”
While others were grateful to escape ghostly pursuit, Mo Xiaobai was already living a “happy” life surrounded by ghostly beauties!

“……”

After reading, even Wang Haoran couldn’t help but curse internally:

Holy shit, this is an “Undead Knight” novel!

The main theme is “while others fear, I seduce ghosts!”

If this guy goes to S City, it’ll be a disaster!

The entire city would descend into chaos, overrun by spirits, with countless casualties!

Meanwhile, the protagonist would be leisurely showing off and seducing ghosts!

From the synopsis alone, it was clear that this “clean-cut” young Daoist was a total scoundrel.

Wang Haoran also understood why Mo Xiaobai’s trust level towards him was “-8″—

Fu Xue and Xu Ruochu, two beautiful women, had run over to him with joy, clearly fond of him.

As a scoundrel, Mo Xiaobai naturally felt displeased.

“Tch, you don’t like me? Well, I don’t like you either!”

“For the peace and safety of S City, for the happiness and well-being of its citizens.”

“I, Wang Haoran, swear to never let you set foot in S City!”

—As a longtime recipient of S City’s Five-Star Citizen Award, Wang Haoran felt a surge of responsibility.

While Wang Haoran was formulating his plan.

Fu Xue, standing in front of him, couldn’t hold back—

“Honestly… you were so worried about me… one phone call, and you rushed over…”

“But now you’re being so timid…”

“You could’ve just hugged me, you know…”

“Hmph!”

Deciding to take the initiative, Fu Xue grabbed Wang Haoran’s arm, signaling him to lower his head.

Then she stood on her tiptoes and whispered in his ear, “Hehe, guess what my new master’s name is?”

“What name? I can’t guess!”

Though he said this, Wang Haoran was already preparing to use “Appraisal” on the “ring granny” Fu Xue had acquired.

“You can guess! You’ve heard this name before!” Fu Xue, enjoying the moment of whispering with Wang Haoran, continued.

At that moment.

Inside the ring, Xue Jinghong couldn’t suppress her curiosity.

She wanted to see what her disciple’s crush, the son of another “Xue Jinghong,” looked like.

So, she extended her senses—

“……?!”

This is…?!

Seeing Wang Haoran’s face, Xue Jinghong, for once, lost her composure.

She even forgot to hide her presence and directly materialized in front of everyone.

Standing before Wang Haoran.

She spoke in a tone of utter shock—

“You are…!”
