"30 points of bond!" Lin Feng thought as he noted the progress. After completing the task of brushing the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress's hair, the bond had reached 30 points. But to successfully bind with her, he needed 50 points. Only 20 points were left.
"There should be more tasks coming," Lin Feng mused.
After the hair-combing task was completed, the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress still sat in front of the mirror, seemingly admiring the hairstyle that Lin Feng had arranged for her. Then, he saw her make a movement.
The two drawers of the dressing table opened, one revealing makeup items like rouge and makeup brushes, and the other containing hairpins and similar accessories.
Through the bronze mirror, Lin Feng saw the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress reaching into one of the drawers and pulling out a makeup pencil. She began to carefully shape her eyebrows.
"Bond task three: Spend a night in the Bride's Ghostly Mansion to complete the task. Task reward: 10 points of bond with the Bride," the system's voice suddenly echoed in Lin Feng's mind.
"Spending a night in the Ghostly Mansion?" Lin Feng thought. He looked at the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress, still meticulously drawing her eyebrows. "With 30 points of bond, spending a night here shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Lin Feng considered how to phrase his request. He then said directly, "It's getting late, and it's a bit inconvenient for me to head back. Can you arrange a room for me here? I'd like to stay for the night."
Since this was the Bride's Ghostly Mansion, asking for her permission was the right thing to do. With only 30 points of bond, it was better to be polite, although his request was rather direct. After all, she was a female ghost.
As soon as Lin Feng spoke, he saw the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress pause her actions. After a few seconds, she stood up.
"Looks like there's a chance," Lin Feng thought, feeling optimistic.
The Bride walked towards the door, but not floating—she was walking like a living person. Once she left the bronze mirror's view, Lin Feng could no longer see her directly. He only saw the red wedding dress floating through the air, with a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes tapping softly on the floor.
"Tong Tong, hurry up," Lin Feng called to his Companion Spirit, who quickly followed him. Together, they trailed the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress.
The Bride walked towards a semicircular archway, and Lin Feng followed behind. Passing through the archway, they entered a corridor on the right side, still with Lin Feng in tow.
At the end of the corridor was another small archway, leading to a small courtyard.
The Bride in the Red Wedding Dress passed through the arch and into the courtyard, and Lin Feng followed her inside.
"Screech~"
As they entered the courtyard, a door to one of the rooms opened. Lin Feng saw that it led to a bedroom, furnished with a bed, a stool, and a small writing desk—simple but elegant, with classical furniture.
The Bride in the Red Wedding Dress stood motionless in the doorway, as if waiting for Lin Feng to enter.
Lin Feng walked into the bedroom. The room looked quite new and well-kept.
"The Ghostly Mansion has changed," Lin Feng thought to himself. The mansion that had seemed so dilapidated when he first entered, during his battle with the Ghostly Bride, was now vastly different. The bedroom was entirely livable.
Lin Feng inspected the room and turned to see that the Bride had not entered the room with him, instead remaining outside.
"This room is nice, thank you for the hospitality," Lin Feng said, acknowledging her.
Only then did the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress turn and leave, heading back to her own chambers.
Once the Bride left, Lin Feng looked up at the sky.
"There's actually a moon," he noticed, as the moonlight poured through the window.
"Where did President Yan and the others go? It seems they've been expelled from the Ghostly Mansion. Where are they now?" Lin Feng wondered, though he wasn't focused on that at the moment. Instead, he was more interested in exploring the mansion.
He did not go to sleep right away. Instead, he decided to roam around the Bride's Ghostly Mansion, with Tong Tong silently following behind him.
"The Ghostly Mansion is only occupied by her," Lin Feng noted. The mansion wasn't particularly large, and it wasn't too small either. It had three main sections, with a small courtyard on each side of every section.
Lin Feng walked to the other small courtyard, but found no one—no ghosts, nor people. It didn't seem like it was meant for anyone to live in.
"Screech~"
Lin Feng pushed open a door in the courtyard, entering what appeared to be a storage room.
"Is this a storage room?" Lin Feng thought, scanning the space. His eyes quickly landed on several objects.
"Huh, these are Ghostly Taming Objects!" Lin Feng thought, recognizing some of the items. He soon realized these Ghostly Taming Objects must have belonged to the Ghost Tamers that the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress had killed.
A strange sensation washed over him as he understood the full implication of what he had just discovered.
