Now the sunlight felt to her as if it was shining on a living person.

"So, this is the Ninth Grade."

Han Ruyan murmured to herself. At this moment, she had already restored all her memories from when she was alive, even her body was the same as that of an ordinary person.

The first thing Han Ruyan thought of was Su Jie, and her gaze followed that thought.

"My lady, have you reached the Ninth Grade?"

Su Jie had already come before Han Ruyan, looking at her in amazement.

The current Han Ruyan gave Su Jie a peculiar feeling. With his Yang God, looking at Han Ruyan gave him the impression of an ordinary person. Yet, Han Ruyan was supposed to be an unparalleled ghost, now even his Yang God couldn't see through her true form.

Su Jie scrutinized Han Ruyan. On her bright red wedding dress, ninety-nine golden-threaded phoenixes rose and fell with her breath. The ends of her phoenix eyes were tinged with peach-colored rouge, her lips painted with cherry-colored lipstick, teeth like white pearls, and her skin as snow-white as fresh snow. Her delicate, jade-like beautiful face blushed faintly, reminiscent of vermillion accidentally dripped on white paper.

To Su Jian, she looked every bit like a newlywed bride, indistinguishable from a living being.

"Is this how my lord remembers my Ninth Grade appearance?"

Han Ruyan gently smiled, flicking her wide wedding sleeve.

Instantly, Han Ruyan's embroidered shoes lifted three inches off the ground, and the hem of her wedding dress fluttered without wind.

The wedding dress turned even redder, emitting a dim blood-like glow, as if it had soaked in blood for nine days and nights. Her eyes shone with a cold light like a thousand-year-old pond, and the delicate skin at the corners of her eyes began to crack, with fine beads of blood seeping from each crack.

Her appearance became fierce, and a mountain-crushing wave of Yin energy erupted from her body, turning the surroundings for miles around into a rusty blood color.

Each blade of grass and tree quickly withered, forming withered tree demons like those of legends. The sky, for some reason, was filled with countless pieces of paper money, and one by one, rouge-painted paper figures covered the mountain, even a huge fierce ghost carrying a large red flower sedan chair, kneeling respectfully behind Han Ruyan.

Su Jie looked up at the blood-colored cold moon rising above, then lowered his head to look at Han Ruyan, his gaze meeting hers, a subtle feeling arose in his heart.

Su Jie's Yang God actually sounded an alarm, for Han Ruyan now made even his Yang God feel on high alert, this was indeed the might of a true Ninth Grade Fierce Ghost.

"This power, even the Purple Mansion Realm is no more than this."

Su Jie couldn't help but say, Han Ruyan's power was now fully revealed.

Su Jie's Yang God Realm, even at that, could feel threatened by Han Ruyan, which was enough to show what a terrifying leap in strength she had achieved after advancing to the Ninth Grade.

You see, Su Jie's Yang God Realm had as many as 72 Golden Cores, and someone like Di Feng of Guan Chao Pavilion in the Purple Mansion Realm couldn't pose any threat to Su Jie, easily dealt with in just a few moves.

So, for Han Ruyan to make Su Jie feel a strong sense of threat, her combat power definitely reached the level of the Purple Mansion. After all, she was the Ghost Empress, far stronger in combat than any Fierce Ghost of the same level.

"Does the lord like that appearance of mine?"

Han Ruyan let her sleeves fall, gently exploring Su Jie's chest, her voice carrying a cold smile.

"I like every form of you, after all, no matter how you change, you're still my lady."

Su Jie responded immediately, drawing the gaze of Han Ruyan's still eyes.

"Truly, the lord is quite good at sweet talking, no wonder Liu Yingying is so infatuated with you."

Han Ruyan said this as she turned elegantly, facing Su Jie again, returning to that initial exquisite bridal appearance. Her skin was as white as snow, her eyes pure and flawless, like a black gemstone, lacking the fierceness of a ghost, but gaining the allure any beauty should have.

"Today is the day you advanced to the Ninth Grade, let's not talk about other things."

Su Jie decisively changed the topic and reached out to embrace Han Ruyan, to prevent her from overthinking.

Yet, as soon as he touched her, Su Jie could feel a warm, delicate, and smooth sensation, something he had never felt before.

"My lady, have you already gained a body of flesh and blood?"

Su Jie was delighted, for in the past, no matter how much Han Ruyan appeared like a human, she had no physical form, existing more as an illusionary presence.

But now, Han Ruyan, her body had developed a physical form indistinguishable from humans. This was no mere illusion or construct of Yin energy, but a genuine body, no different from a normal human's.

"Advancing to the Ninth Grade has to bring some changes, right?"

Han Ruyan smiled, her face tinged with a soft blush. Having restored all her memories, her nature seemed to have returned to that of a gentlewoman from when she was alive, losing some coldness, gaining a little more maidenly charm.

Su Jie was continuously surprised and couldn't help but laugh, "My lady, you're blushing, aren't we long-time partners, sharing a bed countless times?"

"But we haven't taken the final step yet, it's not real."

Han Ruyan's voice was ethereal, her eyes full of a peach-colored glow. As she spoke, she couldn't help but lower her head shyly, daring not to meet Su Jie's gaze.

It was the first time Su Jie had seen such a girlish side to Han Ruyan. Before she advanced to the Ninth Grade, when talking about love affairs, she was always cold and decisive, even saying she'd give her body to Su Jie after becoming Ninth Grade.

Now Han Ruyan had advanced to the Ninth Grade, but she didn't bring it up anymore. Having regained her memories, her temperament had changed, and she could not easily bring up such shy matters.

However, although Han Ruyan was shy, now it was Su Jie's turn to not want to miss the chance. The freshness made Su Jie couldn't help but laugh, "My lady, since you've said so, and tonight the moonlight is beautiful, let's not waste this beautiful scene, let's go to the bridal chamber, my lady."

Saying so, Su Jie picked up Han Ruyan.

Han Ruyan's eyes adorably widened, struggling a bit in test, finally letting Su Jie do as he wished, pointing to that large red flower sedan chair.

"...where to go."

"Alright!"

Su Jie laughed heartily, walking into the flower sedan chair with large steps.

Inside the flower sedan chair was a world of its own, it was set up like a wedding chamber, with red candles burning in gilt candlesticks, the curtains embroidered with happy mandarin ducks, a step bed carved robust and sturdy, with a large 'happiness' word pasted on the bedhead, creating an overall sense of ceremony.

Upon seeing this, Su Jie, holding Han Ruyan, lifted the gold-threaded curtain.

In a short while, the step bed began to creak.

As the saying goes, "Last night dewdrops on begonias, a few delicate flowers swaying as if about to speak."

"Beauty sees the words, grows tender in anger, doesn't believe dead flowers surpass living people."

"She crushes the flowers, tossing them in front of the young man, inviting him to sleep with the flowers tonight."

................

After a joyful night!

The next morning, amidst the mountains and fields, dewdrops slid off emerald leaves.

Thunk!

As the dewdrop fell, it landed right on the flower sedan chair.

Su Jie slowly opened his eyes from sleep, and as soon as he did, he saw Han Ruyan fully dressed, standing with her back to him, grooming herself in front of a copper mirror, like a prim and proper lady.

For a moment, Su Jie almost thought everything that happened last night was a dream.

However, the faint scent lingering at his nose had already told Su Jie, this was no dream.

"I couldn't have imagined I would achieve such a feat one day."

Su Jie sighed inwardly, thinking of how he used to watch stories like "A Chinese Ghost Story", never imagining he would one day accomplish such a thing.

But I should say, although a female ghost, Han Ruyan's charm was far superior to ordinary women, enchanting and exquisite.

"What mischief are you thinking now."

At some point, Han Ruyan turned around, her phoenix eyes looking at Su Jie, her expression somewhere between joy and reproach.

"Thinking of my lady, being able to marry you is a blessing of three lifetimes."

Su Jie stood up from the bed, dressing himself.

Han Ruyan snorted softly, turning her head, "Stop with those words, save them for Liu Yingying."

Su Jie's mouth twitched, why bring this up again, even though Han Ruyan regained her memories from when she was alive, this matter of jealousy, whether you're a ghost or human, it doesn't diminish one bit!

Hmph!

Seeing Su Jie not replying, Han Ruyan rolled her eyes, walked out of the flower sedan chair, and ignored him.

Su Jie rubbed his nose helplessly, feeling that when it comes to romance, he still had a long way to go!
