Chapter 167: What the Heck, Attacking a Ghost?
The glossy black dragon scales shimmered with a faint metallic luster under the sunlight, giving off an extreme sense of hardness without the heaviness that usually comes with it. Instead, these scales were neatly and densely arranged, hugging the skin like layered, smooth skin-tight leather.
Compared to leather or latex, these dragon scales felt more like a powerful inner armor, perfectly wrapping the Dragon Lady’s body. It was as if she had magically aged ten years in just a few seconds, her height increasing from 1.5 meters to around 1.6 meters.
At least she looked taller and slimmer, exuding both strength and elegance. There was no domineering queen vibe here; instead, she carried the grace of a noble young lady.
Her current appearance was that of a dragon hybrid, a loli dragon hybrid, no less.
Her face was masked in shiny black scales, and two sharp dragon horns sprouted from the top of her head. A hefty pair of scaly dragon wings extended from her back, larger than one might expect, capable of enveloping most of her body down to her shins.
Zhao Mingyue was puzzled. When she first saw the Dragon Lady, her scales were silver-white; now they were black. It probably had something to do with changing colors—or maybe something much more important: where the heck did those dragon wings come from? They couldn’t just appear out of thin air!
The dragon scales were easy to explain, but she was utterly baffled by those wings and the long tail.
Human bodies can reach this level?
Ghosts were already weird enough, and now there was a monster too!
Zhao Mingyue felt her worldview crashing down, and she could only repeatedly reassure herself in her head.
With an Evil God in the mix, it was only natural there’d be a “Dragon Lady,” right?
Not to mention, the Dragon Lady looked absolutely stunning—brimming with vigor while still small and adorable. At first glance, she might seem fierce and violent, but looking closely revealed a perfect body proportion: a mix of loli softness and the unique power beauty of the dragon people.
But no matter how you slice it, this was a ghost loli possessing a dragon loli—two lolis combined!
The Dragon Lady lifted one of her claws and clenched her fist, feeling the surge of power within her body.
Her strength now was on a whole different level compared to before. In her previous full form, she could easily topple a skyscraper—she was basically a moving natural disaster disguised as an ancient dragon.
Unfortunately, now she could barely go from a little girl to a taller little girl. But hey, at least they were all still little girls!
“With your kn*fe and my body, I bet my old friends will be amazed.” The Dragon Lady’s voice still had a hint of childishness mixed with a muffled electronic tone.
Bai Yu stepped out from Zhao Mingyue’s shadow, dressed in a snow-white dress.
Standing side by side with the Dragon Lady, even without counting the horns, the Dragon Lady was still half a head taller.
“Let’s give it a try; it might just work.”
This was Bai Yu’s first time entering someone else’s body beside Zhao Mingyue’s. She shot a sidelong glance at Zhao Mingyue, who seemed rather upset, biting her lip in silence. The look on her face screamed internal conflict.
It should have been a pretty normal thing—just possessing a body to commit m*rder. But Zhao Mingyue’s dramatic expression was making Bai Yu feel all sorts of weird things.
Turning back, she watched as the Dragon Lady opened her arms. Instead of hugging her, Bai Yu grabbed her wrist, and poof, she vanished, entering the Dragon Lady’s body.
The Dragon Lady’s physique was entirely different from Zhao Mingyue’s. For Bai Yu, it was also her first time in a second body, and she carefully felt the changes within.
The sisters’ bodies weren’t that different; the Dragon Lady’s was lighter and considerably more powerful, giving off this smooth, precise feeling that made you think—just point and sh**t! Compared to Zhao Mingyue’s naïve, undeveloped form, the Dragon Lady’s body was clearly well-trained and seasoned.
Zhao Mingyue, being the younger sister, had zero experience and couldn’t adapt to the movements.
On the other hand, the Dragon Lady, as the older sister, had plenty of experience. After entering the body, she didn’t lose her consciousness but rather aided Bai Yu in her actions.
Of course, when we’re talking about body development and experience here, we’re being literal; in-depth, we mean experience in combat.
Zhao Mingyue was no slouch; her physical attributes weren’t bad, but without proper training, she’d never reach her full potential. While at Eternal Life Village, she had gotten some minor enhancements, but the Dragon Lady didn’t need a mention—the sheer force and speed were her signatures.
“How’s my body feeling? Ah~ You know, I’ve been waiting for this day forever! I’ve fantasized more than once about you brutally entering my body and doing some naughty things to me.”
The Dragon Lady said this with her sweet, childlike voice, causing Bai Yu’s mind to momentarily short-circuit.
Luckily, these words echoed in Bai Yu’s mind and didn’t reach Zhao Mingyue’s ears; otherwise, she’d be regretting it for quite a while.
“I just didn’t expect you to be so gentle. You were in before I even felt it.”
“You’d better do this often~”
“Frequently enter my body, dominate me, take control of me…”
“I pretty much already know my little sister’s body—she’s just a little girl with no experience at all. It’s clearly more comfortable in my body.”
“Don’t worry, now that you’re in, I won’t let you go without some fun.”
Bai Yu tried hard to ignore the Dragon Lady’s words.
Realizing she could say whatever she wanted without Zhao Mingyue hearing her lifted the Dragon Lady’s spirits.
No, it wasn’t so much that she was feeling liberated; it was more like her true colors were showing.
Her personality wasn’t always like this; her recent obedient behavior was merely an act to avoid breaking character in front of her little sister. Now that Zhao Mingyue was out of the picture, she couldn’t help but go back to her usual self.
She used to enjoy saying such things, but she’d never said this much all at once.
“Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you since you’re in my body right now.”
Once she spoke, the Dragon Lady actually fell silent. She only meant to tease Bai Yu; she didn’t seriously want to steal her away from Zhao Mingyue. Whether she could or not was one thing, but Zhao Mingyue was a pitiful little sister; meeting Bai Yu was the luckiest thing to happen to her in this life, so she’d let her keep her.
Zhao Mingyue was her sister, after all—not some other random person.
Bai Yu controlled the Dragon Lady’s body and tried swinging a few knives.
She could feel a certain synergy was necessary between her and the Dragon Lady, but she didn’t need to work on it deliberately; she trusted she’d adapt to the body quickly.
Possessing someone else’s body wasn’t the same as your own, so using it didn’t come with that natural, instinctive feeling. This was perfectly normal.
The Dragon Lady was different; she could fully relinquish control of her body while predicting Bai Yu’s actions, helping her out. To put it bluntly, she was optimizing things.
The blade whistled through the air. A falling leaf hesitated for a moment in flight, then shattered into countless fragments swept away by the wind.
With a single fist clenched, the Dragon Lady’s dragon scales expanded and contracted with her breathing, a fine mist of bl**d seeping through the gaps.
These gaps in the dragon scales were the weak points. However, Bai Yu sealed them with bl**d threads, causing the Dragon Lady’s black dragon scales to reveal dark red patterns with each breath, making her even more mysterious—visually, she looked more boss-like than any actual boss!
Forty minutes later, Shen Shuyun’s motorcycle pulled up outside.
She took off her helmet, flipped her long, messy hair, and stepped off with long strides.
Dressed in trendy, eye-catching attire and adorned with exquisite makeup, she looked more feminine than the Dragon Lady herself!
Previously, Shen Shuyun’s identity was that of someone disfigured, even earning the nickname Ghost Face.
Now that she looked this good, of course, she had to put in some effort into her appearance!
She despised her old disfigured self, and walking down the street back then got her lots of side-eyes, but back then, those looks were driven by fear. Now, they were looks of admiration.
As Shen Shuyun approached, she noticed Zhao Mingyue standing alone, looking as if she were fuming, sporting a rather gloomy expression.
“Zhao Mingyue.” Shen Shuyun, unaware of what was happening, came over to greet her.
“You are… Ghost Face?” A rather youthful voice came from the side, startling Shen Shuyun, who instinctively took a step back.
Getting close like this, she had completely failed to notice the other person.
Following the sound, upon seeing the figure sitting in the shadows, Shen Shuyun’s expression turned serious.
She didn’t even need to guess the identity, “Dragon Lady!?”
“Congratulations! You got it right, but not completely.” The Dragon Lady raised the kn*fe in her hand. “Do you recognize this?”
“The Doctor’s kn*fe?” Shen Shuyun felt a sinking suspicion.
“Yep! The doctor’s currently inside my body; she’s my partner now.”
The Dragon Lady smiled sweetly, but Shen Shuyun wasn’t feeling the same kind of sweetness.
In the top three of the assassin rankings, the first and third were teaming up, and their powers had merged into one—was she supposed to still fight ghosts now?
Did they even need to bother?
Were the two monsters tough enough to take care of this with a single hand?
Shen Shuyun swallowed hard, the words in her throat getting swallowed along with them.
She had actually come to persuade Bai Yu this time.
There were so many eyes on this mission; they shouldn’t cause a stir.
Now, that was out the window.
