Chapter 1180 Skill of Love (2/2)

Dry Bone and Baby Ghost had arrived just in time to see the commotion. Dry Bone looked at Han Sen and said, ”You really made her mad this time.”

Han Sen asked, ”Why does she care about him, a human, so much?”

Dry Bone answered, ”You may not understand. It has to do with her practice of a skill; it is called 'Love.' Humans can become far more emotional than spirits, so Qing Jun selected Qiu Ping and Zhang Yuchen as her target for this. If Qiu Ping kills Zhang Yuchen on her behalf, and she then kills Qiu Ping, her practice with the skill will be complete. But...”

Dry Bone King broke out in laughter.

”But what?” Han Sen asked.

Baby Ghost continued the speech, saying, ”But Qiu Ping is smart. He genuinely liked her, but he wasn't willing to kill Zhang Yuchen for her. He knows about her plan, and he has known for a very long time. He just pretends he doesn't know anything. This entire thing has been going on for twenty years. She has grown impatient, over the course of that time, due to her being unable to finish the skill herself.”

Dry Bone then said, ”She knows she has failed, but she is a spirit. Pride is as important for her as it is for us. She will never admit it. Now that you have sent him away, though, the slim chance for a future success may have well-and-truly disappeared. It angers her, and she won't let you slip away so easily.”

Han Sen now fully understood why she cared about the humans so much.

”What do you think she'll do? What can she do? Is she going to try to kill me with her seven super creatures?” Han Sen wondered out loud.

Qing Jun King was only a spirit with nine of her gene locks open. With Little Angel ready to be unleashed, Han Sen wasn't afraid at all.

”She can't do that. Mister Immortal won't allow her to hurt anyone. The extent of her command starts and ends with manual labor. They aren't her pets or anything,” Dry Bone reassured Han Sen.

Han Sen knew Sky King needed them as food, so it was likely true. He wouldn't allow them to kill each other over squabbles of their own.

”Then what is there to worry about?” Han Sen said.

Dry Bone King answered, ”To be honest, me and Baby Ghost don't have what it takes to fight her together.”

”She is that good?” Han Sen was surprised upon hearing this.

”Yes. Why else would she be the one in charge? It's why you need to exercise some caution and be careful,” Baby Ghost replied.

”Thanks for the information, you two. I'll definitely try to be more careful,” Han Sen said. After sending Dry Bone and Baby Ghost away, Han Sen noticed another slip of paper on his table.

”Did one of them just leave this without me realizing it?” Han Sen looked on the back of the paper first and saw another Nine-Life Cat symbol.
