Seeing Elder Ru Qi's pale white face under the eerie moonlight, Yi Chen shouted at the top of his lungs before falling back on his butt.
"AH! GHOST!"
Just when he was debating whether to use his Bursting Fire Steps to run as far away as possible or try throwing a fireball at the ghostly figure, he couldn't help but feel a strong sense of familiarity from the face.
"E-Elder Ru Qi? I-It's you?" Yi Chen muttered in realisation the very next moment as a gentle breeze caused Elder Ru Qi's white robes to flutter and a familiar smell of tulips wafted into Yi Chen's nostrils.
Meanwhile, seeing Yi Chen's extreme reaction to her earlier smile, Elder Ru Qi's expression turned frigid the next moment, and while trying to keep as calm an expression as possible, she asked.
"Y-You… did you just mistake me for a ghost?"
As Elder Ru Qi asked that question, she couldn't help but grow more and more self-conscious about her looks.
