The year was Yanhe, in the Tang Dynasty.
Qin Xiao Bai, known as the greatest painter in the land, was commissioned by the Princess to paint the "Subduing Demons Transformation".
The entire city of Chang'an buzzed with excitement, people discussing the painting everywhere they went. The city was bustling with life and prosperity.
General Ma's Residence.
Wang Lin awoke from the embrace of luxury, his eyes clouded with confusion.
The air was thick with the faint scent of alcohol and salty seafood…
He saw the alluring Lady Ma in the bed beside him. Her skin was like a blooming flower.
Suddenly, Wang Lin's expression contorted into a grimace of pain. A flood of memories surged into his mind!
【Ding, you have awakened your past life's wisdom and received the favor of Blue Star's destiny. Reward: Full Level Trait – Punish Evil Promote Good System!】
In an instant.
The jumbled mess in his mind was instantly sorted. He saw everything clearly.
Wang Lin understood his situation.
“So I've actually transmigrated into… the Tang Dynasty Ghost World!!"
“And I've got Sun Wang's script too!!!”
His name was Wang Lin.
In his previous life, he was a firefighter. He bravely rushed into a raging fire to save a little girl, sacrificing his own life in the process. And then, he transmigrated.
In this world, he was a descendant of the declining Wang and Xie families, specifically the Wang clan of Langya.
He had once studied hard and passed the imperial exams, ultimately becoming a minor official in the Imperial Horse Administration. He was not sure why, perhaps it was the Meng Po soup that had a little extra water, causing him to be ‘precocious’ and able to effortlessly recite Tang and Song poetry. He was also skilled in composing prose and music.
His situation was very similar to Sun Wang's in the original story.
No!
One could even say that he had taken Sun Wang's place!
When he was treating the princess's horse, she noticed his talent for literature and admired him. Princess Taiping recognized his abilities and personally selected him.
He was exceptionally promoted to become one of her close confidantes!
Later, he became a literary weapon for the princess in her struggle against the Crown Prince's faction!
He gained the title of "Poetry Immortal" and was highly regarded in Chang'an, suppressing the Crown Prince's faction to the point where they couldn't raise their heads. The Crown Prince, Li Longji, both hated and envied Wang Lin!
Later on.
During one of Wang Lin's visits to treat Lady Ma's "Blood-Sweating Steed",
He was captivated by the alluring and seductive Lady Ma. He became her secret lover, and soon, they were inseparable…
“Wang Lang~”
At that moment.
Lady Ma let out a soft sigh and turned, revealing a generous expanse of fair skin.
Outside, the moonlight was bright, and the courtyard was a beautiful sight. The spring breeze blew gently, unhurried and serene, making for a truly pleasant experience.
However!
Wang Lin shivered involuntarily.
If he hadn't known about the Tang Dynasty Ghost World, he wouldn't have minded.
But now, this sweet and tender "Wang Lang" was a fatal sound!
Because.
The plot of Tang Dynasty Ghost World: Subduing Demons Transformation was about to begin.
The deranged Ma Xiong would kill every man who came near Lady Ma!
He calculated the timeline.
Later tonight, in the second half of the night, was his death date!
Damn it!
He encountered a demon killer right from the start?
He had just awakened his past life's wisdom and his golden finger!
New account, man!!
Don't do this!!!
But it had to be said.
Lady Ma was truly a beautiful woman.
In ancient times, people married young.
Lady Ma was around twenty-four or twenty-five years old, as luscious and tempting as a ripe peach, perfectly mature. Her legs were perfectly round and long, exposed to the air. Under the constraints of her corset, she was generously endowed with a full chest and a slender waist. She was a breathtaking sight.
Her beautiful face, adorned with just a natural flush of color, was enough to captivate hearts. She was a true Eastern classical beauty.
Her skin was flawless, white as snow, with a hint of seductive allure. Under the moonlight, she was adorned with a touch of dark hair oil, a truly irresistible sight.
It was no wonder that he had made a mistake.
Tell me,
What old man could resist such a temptation?
However,
As he looked at her.
Wang Lin's eyes lit up.
Because before his eyes.
He saw three traits on Lady Ma, like bubbles.
One golden, two purple.
【(Gold) Top-Tier Riding: Possesses the highest level of horsemanship skills. No matter when you mount a horse, your posture will always be stable!】

Hiss!

Punish Evil Promote Good!
If that's the case, this is going to be exciting!
You see.
In the Tang Dynasty Ghost World, besides the martial artists who could walk on walls, climb trees, and even kill a bull with their bare hands.
There were also spirits and monsters who had become sentient, such as the giant crocodile in the "Crocodile God Case", the "Sea-Four-Unlike" beast "Pozhe" from the sea, or the "Sky-Piercing Rhinoceros" that could devour moonlight, grow and evolve, and destroy a city with a single stomp…
If.
Their traits could be used by me.
Then dominating the world,
Even immortality, would be within reach!
If this was the kind of world, Wang Lin was eager to experience the unique scenery!
But right now,
The crisis of Ma Xiong was imminent!
There was no way to avoid it, tonight was his death sentence!
Wait!
Wang Lin looked at the time. It was still early, the Wu Shen hour, which was around 8 pm. There were at least four hours before the midnight plot kill.
And now.
The Blood-Sweating Steed was tied up outside in the courtyard.
What if he took the horse first?
Without the Blood-Sweating Steed, would Ma Xiong's threat be greatly reduced??
The answer was yes!
So.
For his own survival.
Wang Lin hardened his heart.
He set his sights on Lady Ma.
Trait.
He had to get the golden trait!
【Top-Tier Riding】 would be perfect for subduing the Blood-Sweating Steed!
And the way to acquire the trait.
Was punishment!
…………
Meanwhile.
Chang'an, Xiaoyue Tower.
This was a gathering place for high-ranking officials, as well as a den of extravagance where wealthy merchants went to listen to music and watch performances.
The rhythmic music of drums echoed in the air.
On stage.
Four elaborately dressed dancing beauties twisted their waists, their movements were captivating.
Down below, amongst the audience.
Xielü Lang Sun Wang was excitedly drinking fine wine.
It was because he had discovered a secret. A secret that could guarantee him wealth and comfort for the rest of his life, a great secret!
"I never thought that Wang Lin, the so-called 'Kirin Talent', the poet who could write poetry all night long, would have a weakness I could exploit!"
"Good! So you're having an affair with Lady Ma!"
"I'll use this secret to feed myself for the rest of my life!"
"I'm going to General Ma's Residence right now, I'm going to catch you red-handed!"
