Chapter 1275: Happiness Can’t Be Forced

A white ghost floated past swiftly, disappearing as quickly as it appeared.
"Indeed, how foolish a human must be to enter the Ghost King’s territory alone. Truly stupid." Another ghost drifted by.
As you journeyed deeper, the cave transformed into a corridor. The path beneath your feet was laid with stones—though not wide, it was incredibly smooth. Walking on it, you felt no imbalance. The corridor’s walls glowed with blue ghost fire, casting you into a realm of azure light. The eerie ambiance left you feeling uneasy.

"Boom!"
With a push, the stone door creaked open, revealing a vast, open space.
This was actually a spacious hall. The entire hall was paved with rare marble, supported by eight stone pillars, each adorned with four blue ghost lanterns. In the center of the hall lay a massive stone coffin—large enough to hold ten of you.
As soon as your foot stepped onto the marble floor, the hall shook briefly, and a stern voice echoed within: "Who dares disturb this General’s rest?"
The heavy lid of the stone coffin was pushed open, and a towering Skeleton General clad in ancient battle armor rose up. His glowing red eyes fixed directly on you: "What is your business here? Do you not know this is the forbidden territory of the Ghost King?"
