"Looks like I came pretty early." A cold female voice rang out.
At the entrance to the Ten Thousand Ghost Forest stood two figures, a man and a woman. The man was burly and wore a full beard, while the woman was dressed in plain cloth garments. She was extremely petite, perhaps only 1.4 meters tall.
The contrast between the two was striking.
Almost comical.
But anyone who knew their identities would feel no amusement at all. Instead, they would be plunged into deep fear. That was because they came from an organization called White Lady House.
The world had matchmakers, the red ladies who tied people together in marriage.
There were also white ladies.
They often built bridges toward scenes of misfortune and violence.
White Lady House had few members, no more than several dozen in total. Yet it was the most feared and unfathomable faction in the Ten Thousand Ghost Forest. Those who provoked them often died in bizarre and extraordinarily strange ways.
Of the two people before them, there was actually only one person.
The woman was named "Yuanbao," and she was the head of White Lady House.
And the man...
Was her discarded shell!
There was a rumor in the Ten Thousand Ghost Forest that everyone in White Lady House was both female and male. At regular intervals, they underwent a reversal, switching genders.
When a woman became a man, her female body would become a discarded shell.
When a man became a woman.
His male body would likewise become a discarded shell.
"Miss Yuanbao did indeed arrive early, but probably not earlier than I did." A sinister voice rang out. A white-clad, hunched middle-aged figure walked out of the woods. Two young people followed behind him.
"So it's Shi Jin Jia. How rude of me."
