Before the ghost sedan, as Lin Feng forcefully lifted the red veil, the bride's veil flew up into the air, lifting several meters into the sky.
You see, Lin Feng's physical strength was five times that of an ordinary person! His strength was naturally immense.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to physically drag Tong Tong back from the gates of the Ji Zhao Temple!
So, with this lift, the bride's veil soared upwards, flying as high as ten meters!
But Lin Feng didn't have the time to focus on the veil flying up into the sky anymore. Because after lifting the veil, Lin Feng saw the bride's face!
He had seen this face in the bronze mirror more than once. It was an extraordinarily delicate and beautiful face!
However, that was through the bronze mirror. The reflection in the bronze mirror was slightly distorted, and the color was a bit off.
Now, though—without the aid of a mirror or anything else—Lin Feng was seeing her face up close!
Even though he had seen it in the mirror a few times, seeing it directly took Lin Feng by surprise!
Indeed, it was a face of heavenly beauty!
Her makeup was also perfectly applied—not heavy, but light and delicate.
It wasn't modern makeup; it was more classical, in style!
Her face was free from foundation or powder—definitely not like some women whose faces are so white that you can scrape off layers of makeup.
There was no foundation, but her face was very pale, with a natural blush on her cheeks, as if kissed by the red glow of sunset!
She looked incredibly soft and delicate.
At this moment, she was slightly lowering her head.
She looked rather shy.
A Nightmare-Grade ghost, yet possessing such beauty!
So, even Lin Feng, upon directly seeing her face, was momentarily stunned.
Then, Lin Feng saw the bride in red lift her head and look at him.
Her gaze... seemed to have become more animated.
Lin Feng couldn't tell if it was just an illusion, but it definitely seemed a little more lifelike than before.
Moreover, Lin Feng clearly felt that after the bride saw him, she seemed slightly stunned, just like a human would when seeing something unexpected.
Of course, being a ghost, she didn't show any expression, or perhaps she had no expression at all.
But through close observation, Lin Feng could sense it.
Clearly, the bride in red was also surprised!
Although she didn't show any outward reaction, Lin Feng could feel it, likely due to their bond now reaching 45 points.
"The system hasn't issued the 'task complete' prompt yet!"
Lin Feng didn't forget the most important task.
Now that the red veil was lifted, the bride didn't get angry, nor did she attack or continue moving forward.
However...
It still wasn't a complete success!
But Lin Feng wasn't panicked!
The fact that after lifting the veil, she didn't keep moving forward, was a good sign!
It meant this move was effective!
And, being able to actually see her after lifting the veil was another indication that this method worked!
You see, before this, the bride in red had always been invisible!
No matter whether it was Lin Feng or President Yan, they had never been able to see her!
"Then let's pull her back!"
Lin Feng quickly made a decision.
He extended his hand and grabbed the bride's hand with a swift motion!
And then...
He successfully caught it!
"Got her!"
Lin Feng wasn't in the mood to feel the softness of the bride's small hand at all!
After all, the most important task was not yet complete.
The priority now was to stop her from boarding the ghost sedan.
This ghost sedan was far too strange.
Lin Feng felt that once the bride truly got on, the ghost sedan would likely vanish in an instant, making it impossible for him to follow or find it again!
So, without hesitation, Lin Feng pulled the bride toward her courtyard.
He dragged her back the way she came!
This time, the bride in red was successfully pulled along by Lin Feng!
She followed Lin Feng as he dragged her back to the courtyard.
Along the way.
The red veil that Lin Feng had thrown up earlier finally fell down.
Lin Feng reached out with his other hand, grabbed the veil, and tossed it into his storage space.
"Tong Tong, close the door!"
As soon as they entered the courtyard, Lin Feng shouted.
Tong Tong was quick to react.
"Creeeak!"
The courtyard door slammed shut!
Lin Feng then dragged the bride around the screen wall and into the first courtyard.
"Task completed! The bond with the bride is now 25 points!"
At this moment, the system's voice finally rang out!
Mission successful!
Sure enough.
Pulling the bride back into the courtyard was the key to success!
This method worked!
"Phew!"
Lin Feng sighed in relief!
This final bond task wasn't too hard, but it wasn't too easy either.
The key point lay in the red veil!
Otherwise, he would've had to use force to stop her.
But Lin Feng felt that force might not have worked either.
Lifting the veil was by far the most effective method.
"My bond with her is now at 70. I should be able to bind her now, right? But how should I do it?"
Lin Feng thought.
At this moment, he noticed that the bride's gaze was still fixed on him.
She was staring at him, seemingly in a trance.
Her eyes still lacked any emotion.
However...
They didn't seem as cold as when Lin Feng had first seen her through the bronze mirror. There was something in her gaze now.
"Wait a minute, I lifted her veil... could she have mistaken me for her husband?"
Lin Feng suddenly realized.
The ghosts in this world were a bit different from the ones he had seen in some horror movies before his transmigration.
Humans had studied ghosts deeply. There were many different kinds of ghosts, including the usual ones Lin Feng was familiar with.
But there were also ghosts without emotions, feelings, or even rationality—possessing a completely different logic for how they acted.
The bride in red gave Lin Feng the impression of being one of the latter.
But she was supposed to be married.
And now, it seemed like her gaze toward Lin Feng was a little... off?
"Ding! The bond with the bride in red has reached 70. You can now bind her as your second ghost spirit. To complete the binding, simply give the bride in red a drop of your blood."
The system's voice rang out again.
It was here!
Lin Feng's spirits lifted.
"Sure enough, blood is the medium!"
Lin Feng murmured.
The blood was simply the medium; the bond was what truly mattered.
In fact, if it weren't for the system, a bond of 70 would've already been enough to treat the bride in red as his second ghost spirit, even if she were an Evil Spirit.
Lin Feng would've been able to summon her with the bond.
But since Lin Feng was the system's host, this binding had to be through the system. That way, he could cultivate her more efficiently and safely.
So, blood was needed as the medium!
Otherwise, without the system, even if Lin Feng gave her all of his blood, it wouldn't have worked!
Without any hesitation, Lin Feng took out a needle and pricked his finger.
Immediately, a drop of blood formed, creating a small bead of blood on his finger.
Lin Feng extended his finger toward the bride in red.
But the bride in red... seemed to have no idea what Lin Feng wanted!
"Eat this drop of blood."
Lin Feng said.
At 70 bond points... they should be able to communicate easily by now.
After Lin Feng spoke, the bride in red seemed to understand.
However, her actions surprised Lin Feng!
She opened her lips and gently took Lin Feng's finger into her mouth.
Then Lin Feng felt her tongue roll the drop of blood off his fingertip.
Uh!
Lin Feng's heart rate...
Immediately sped up!
"Binding successful! Congratulations to the host for successfully obtaining the second ghost spirit."
"Task complete. The host receives 1 Spirit Pill and 1000 Spirit Experience for the bride in red."
"The host has successfully bound the second ghost spirit and has received a lottery chance."
The system's voice rang out in succession!
With the successful binding of the bride in red, the second ghost spirit task was complete.
Moreover, Lin Feng had earned a lottery chance, which was a nice bonus!
Lin Feng withdrew his finger and checked the bride's status panel.
Ghost Spirit: Bride in Red (Name Unconfirmed)
Level: Nightmare Grade (Level 5)
Potential: 3 Stars (5%)
Experience: 41,500/50,000 (41,500 represents the bride's current experience, with 50,000 being required to reach the next level)
Abilities: Ghost Domain Suppression (others will be unlocked as bond increases)
Ghost Techniques: Flash Escape (others will be unlocked as bond increases)
Talent: Superior Perception (others will be unlocked as bond increases)
Ghost Artifacts: Embroidered Shoes, Bronze Mirror, Hairpin (others will be unlocked as bond increases)
Ghost Domain: Dual Ghost Domains (Rare)
Bond: 70
The bride's status panel was nearly identical to Tong Tong's.
However, the content in the panel differed greatly.
The bride in red's strength was definitely Nightmare Grade!
Her potential was also three stars!
Her starting point was much higher than Tong Tong's.
After all, she was an Evil Spirit, one that had grown on her own.
If her potential was low, she wouldn't have been able to grow.
In the Experience section, the system had converted the bride's power into experience.
The experience calculation is straightforward: for example, the bride needs 50,000 experience to level up. The system took her current power and calculated the distance to the next level, converting that distance into experience.
Currently, the bride is only a few thousand experience points away from leveling up!
In the realm of Nightmare-Grade ghosts, she was rather powerful.
And it was likely that her strength was enhanced by the embroidered shoes, as when she didn't have them, she was only on par with the paper figurine Yan President had used.
But once she got the embroidered shoes, the paper figurine couldn't withstand her at all!
That clearly showed how strong she had become.
