Eerie White Shadow!

Wushan Village, deep in the night, sinister winds gusted in waves.

Wei Fan opened his eyes and saw an eerie white shadow wandering outside the house built of yellow mud and thatch.

"It's here again!" Wei Fan's hair stood on end as he lowered the sound of his breathing.

Wei Fan was a transmigrator. After arriving in this world resembling an ancient society, he had originally planned to make a name for himself with his knowledge.

But he soon discovered that he had been wrong, because this world contained things of terrifying horror—eerie beings and grotesque monsters!

This was no ordinary ancient world. It was a world where "ghosts" existed.

Wei Fan held his breath. The white shadow outside the window was called a White Wraith; every time it appeared, it took away someone's soul.

The village had Night Watchers specially tasked with dealing with eerie beings and grotesque monsters, but the White Wraith appeared without any pattern.

Sometimes it came once every few months; other times, it would not appear for years. The village lacked Night Watchers, so the problem of the White Wraith had never been resolved.

This is bad. Seeing the White Wraith pacing before his house, Wei Fan frowned as a dense sense of danger rose in his heart.

According to Wei Fan's analysis, the White Wraith generally only sought out those with weak bodies.

After transmigrating here and realizing this world contained grotesque monsters, Wei Fan had begun training his body. His physical condition was fairly good.

At that thought, Wei Fan glanced at a small bed not far away. Under the moonlight, a fair-skinned young girl was sleeping soundly.

That was his younger sister, Wei Yingying, and also his only family in this world.

Their parents in this life had also been Night Watchers in the village and had treated Wei Fan and Wei Yingying very well.

But they had died in an attack by grotesque monsters, leaving behind only an inheritance and the young Wei Fan and Wei Yingying.

Just then, as though sensing something, Wei Yingying woke from her dream and lightly slipped into Wei Fan's blanket.

"Big Brother, I'm scared~" Wei Yingying's body trembled slightly as she curled up beside Wei Fan, looking tiny and helpless.

Wei Fan had wanted to say that she was already so grown up that even as siblings, they needed to observe propriety and could no longer sleep together.

But considering the White Wraith wandering outside the window, he held Wei Yingying tightly and said firmly, "It's okay. Big Brother is here!"

"Mm, with Big Brother beside me, Yingying isn't scared anymore!" An unusual light flickered in Wei Yingying's eyes, and a sweet smile hung on her lips.

Warmth filled Wei Fan's heart. He looked at his sister, his gaze becoming especially gentle.

He also discovered in surprise that his sister had now blossomed into a young woman. She was no longer that little girl from before.

Even by the standards of his two lifetimes, his sister was very beautiful. Every frown and smile carried a unique beauty.

Yet Wei Fan's heart was as still as water, and he had no excessive thoughts.

"Phew..."

Feeling Wei Yingying's even breathing, Wei Fan knew that she had fallen asleep.

"This girl." Wei Fan gave a helpless smile. He had not expected Wei Yingying to fall asleep so quickly.

After pacing by the window, the white shadow left. Wei Fan's suspended heart finally settled.

He did not sleep the entire night.

The next day, noisy shouts came from outside.

"Something happened, something happened!"

"The White Wraith ghost has come to steal souls!"

"Yu Dafu's whole family is dead!"

Clang, clang, clang~

Amid the dense, piercing sound of gongs, the surrounding households woke one after another.

"Big Brother, what happened?" Wei Yingying was also jolted awake and asked sleepily.

"Nothing. Keep sleeping. Big Brother will go out and take a look!" Wei Fan nimbly flipped out of bed, revealing his sturdy upper body. Each streamlined muscle was full of aesthetic strength.

After learning that this world had grotesque monsters, Wei Fan had begun training his body and cultivating a manual left behind by his parents, the "Tiger's Breath Art."

Now that he had cultivated the Tiger's Breath Art to the first level, the strength of one hand had reached three hundred jin. In his previous life, that would have made him quite a capable fighter.

But in this world where grotesque monsters ran rampant, it only counted as having a relatively strong body.

He changed into coarse cloth clothes and tied them tightly at the waist with a strip of fabric.

Wei Fan pushed open the door and strode toward the crowd of onlookers.

"Yu Dafu is dead! He and his son are both dead!"

Before Wei Fan even drew close, someone spoke in a trembling voice.

"Hm? Two people died in one night?" Wei Fan's eyes narrowed. Logically speaking, whenever the White Wraith appeared, it only killed one person.

Yet this time, it had killed two at once. Moreover, Yu Dafu and his son were tenant farmers in the village. They were usually thin, but they were definitely not weak.

When something abnormal happened, there had to be a demon behind it!

Wei Fan pushed through the crowd and looked into the house where Yu Dafu lived. Two corpses lay sprawled inside, their faces twisted as though they had seen something utterly terrifying before death.

"White Wraith!" Wei Fan clenched his fists. Thinking of the White Wraith that had wandered outside his home last night, a fierce sense of danger surged in his heart.

"Ding, energy collection complete. System loading!"

"God-tier Point Addition System loaded successfully. Host, please receive it."

A crisp voice rang out in his mind, and Wei Fan's body jolted.

After waiting seventeen years, the system had finally arrived!
