I Pledge My Loyalty to the Court

Though Ye Siheng could perceive a trace of ghostly aura, he lacked the clarity that Nanli possessed in seeing spirits. Thus, Nanli resorted to talismans to make the ghost materialize.

Upon seeing the apparition, Ye Siheng chuckled lightly. "Indeed, it is you, Xu Zhida."

Xu Zhida's face turned sheepish as he respectfully greeted Ye Siheng. "Greetings, Ninth Prince."

"You have long passed away, why hide within this jade pendant?" Ye Siheng inquired.

Xu Zhida replied, "Though I have perished, my fervent loyalty to the court remains. I yearn to serve and contribute!"

Nanli rolled her eyes and remarked, "So, serving the court means cheating for others? Or do you plan to possess someone else's body?"

Xu Zhida landed on her palm and confessed, "Indeed, as soon as I advance in my cultivation, I can claim his body as my own."
