The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 851 Are You Threatening Me?

Daniel looked at the clever ghost with a playful grin and asked, "Are you threatening me?"

"Threatening? Oh, I'd never dare to threaten you! You little troublemaker, you're so good at punishing people. If I tried to threaten you, you'd definitely punish me right back!"

Willow smiled sweetly at Daniel and said, "Everything I'm saying is the absolute truth. I'm being completely honest. The treasure is in that cave, and if you want to get to it, you'll have to open that hidden door and go through the passage behind the secret room."

"Willow! I'm giving you one more chance. Are you telling me the truth? If you really are being honest, then once we're in that secret room, I might consider letting you have what you want. But if you're lying, then everything in that secret room is mine, and you won't get a single thing!"

Daniel's words left Willow stunned.

She looked at him, disbelief in her eyes, and asked, "How do you know there's something in the secret room?"

“Because I can smell it! I caught a whiff of what's in there. If I'm not mistaken, it seems like that treasure is a flower. You're after that flower, right? It holds mysterious power and has a chance of making you a demigod.

Although it's tough to become a demigod, and there's no guarantee of success, even if you only succeed halfway, you could end up with a real body. With a body, you could live like a normal person and go outside during the day."

"I don't need a body; mine's still intact and kept in a safe place. If you help me get that flower and take me to replace my body, I can attach my soul to it. Then, I can come back to life."

Willow looked at Daniel with eager anticipation because she didn't want to be a ghost; she wanted to be a living woman.

"From the looks of it, you've been dead for decades, right?" Daniel asked.

Willow counted on her fingers and finally nodded. "You're right; I've been dead for over eighty years, but I was killed by that awful man! Eighty years ago, he ended my life and

turned me into this ghost!"

"You've been dead for eighty years? Your body must be nothing but bones by now; how could it still be intact?" Daniel asked, genuinely curious.

"I told you my body is perfectly

preserved! If you help me get that flower,'ll take you to replace my body. Oncel return my soul to it, we can be together! You little troublemaker!"

"I'm not that desperate," Daniel replied, wrinkling his nose in distaste.

"Really? You think I'm not good enough for you?" Willow asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yep!" Daniel nodded firmly. "I really do!"

"Hmph! Just wait until you see my body after I come back to life. You little troublemaker will be dying to have me!"

Willow was incredibly confident about her allure. After all, her body was only twenty-eight years old-the peak age of a woman's charm. For the past eighty years, her body had been kept among flowers that not only preserved her well but also infused her with their sweet scent.

No matter how cool-headed a man was, just the smell of those flowers would ignite pure desire within him.
