Chapter 27: Dyeing the Eighth-Order Corpse King's Hair (Green, Purple, Red, Pink)

[Page 1 of 3]

Li Star-Moon brushed his hair again and again with the shoe brush, and before his very eyes, it gradually began to turn black.

After checking himself in the mirror, he found that the result was rather good. According to the instructions, he still needed to let it sit for a while.

Li Star-Moon set down the brush, returned to the sofa, opened a bottle of beer, and continued drinking.

Seeing that all of Li Star-Moon’s hair had turned black, Shura found it extremely amusing and could not resist reaching out to touch it. “This stuff is pretty good. I want to try it too!”

Li Star-Moon immediately slapped his hand away. “You don’t even have gray hair, so what the hell are you dyeing it for?”

Shura stroked his own hair. “I think I’d look incredibly handsome with red hair!”

The Tyrant actually seemed to agree. “I think purple hair would suit me. It should look pretty good.”

“What the hell? Big Brother Tyrant, are you drunk?” Li Star-Moon reached out and touched the Tyrant’s forehead, only to find that he did not have a fever either.

Even Blood Moon became interested. “Then I want green!”

The Nun refused to be outdone. “Then I… let me think. I want white hair!”

Li Star-Moon stared at the four of them, speechless. He had merely dyed his hair. Was there really any need for them to get so worked up?

Just as he was about to say something, the Nun suddenly stood up. Li Star-Moon was wondering what she was going to do when he saw her walk straight over to Yellow Tooth and deliver a knife-hand strike!

Seeing the strange expression on Li Star-Moon’s face, the Nun could not help explaining, “He was about to wake up, so…”

Poor Yellow Tooth. Tsk, tsk…

Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was about dyeing their hair, Li Star-Moon waved his hand grandly. “Let’s go! Our destination is the shopping mall!”

Before he had even finished speaking, the Tyrant and Shura vanished from the sofa. Blood Moon disappeared right after them.

“What the hell? You’re too fast! I can’t keep up!”

The Nun, who was the only one still standing there, took Li Star-Moon by the hand. “It’s all right. You have me.”

Looking at the Nun’s peerlessly beautiful face, Li Star-Moon grinned. “Hehe, you really are the best—oh, holy crap!”

He had not even finished speaking when the Nun pulled him away. A few seconds later, when he opened his eyes again, he was already inside the shopping mall.

Good grief. That speed had to be comparable to a rocket!

Once he came to his senses, he saw the four of them already choosing their favorite colors.

The Tyrant said, “Do you think I should dye half of it purple and half black?”

“Big brother, do you mean a gradient?”

Shura said, “I think this sunset red looks pretty good!”

“You idiot, that’s called Sea King Red!”

Blood Moon said, “This green seems a little too green.”

“You know it too? It’s practically as green as the vast prairie!”

The Nun said, “Star-Moon, you choose for me.”

Very well. The pressure had now fallen on Contestant Number Three, Li Star-Moon.

Unfortunately, his own sense of aesthetics was not much better. After browsing for quite some time, he still could not decide what to choose. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a pink bottle beside him.

He picked it up and looked at the Nun, studying her from head to toe for quite a while. The Nun gradually became a little embarrassed under his gaze.

“I think pink would suit your temperament and long hair better. What do you think?”

The Nun thought about it, then nodded with a faint smile. “All right. Let’s go with this one.”

By then, the others had also chosen the colors they wanted.

Blood Moon had chosen Arctic Star Green.

The Tyrant had chosen Astral Purple.

Shura had stuck with Sea King Red.

After selecting their products and gathering up the tools, everyone returned to the villa.

The moment Li Star-Moon entered the house, he discovered that Yellow Tooth had already woken up and was lying across the coffee table, wolfing down food.

Damn, that kid had woken up awfully quickly. Li Star-Moon made a hand signal behind his back, and Blood Moon immediately rushed forward and struck Yellow Tooth in the neck.

Clang!

Yellow Tooth collapsed sideways onto the coffee table.

“All right, you can dye your hair now. I’m going to sleep for a while.” Having said that, Li Star-Moon prepared to take off his shoes and enter the bedroom.

Unexpectedly, Blood Moon grabbed him. “Sleep? First help me dye mine!”

“What the hell? Just dye it yourself. I’m exhausted!”

Blood Moon, however, refused to let him off. “Who told you to have experience? I don’t know how!” Her tone was utterly self-righteous.

Damn it, I had only dyed my hair once, and that was just a moment ago. Did that count as experience?

With no other choice, he took out the tools and began dyeing Blood Moon’s hair. She had short hair, which was extremely smooth. This was also the first time Li Star-Moon had observed her from such close range, and he discovered that Blood Moon was truly very pale. A delicate fragrance seemed to emanate from her entire body.

“Huh? Aren’t zombies supposed to stink?” Li Star-Moon muttered under his breath.

Blood Moon’s ears were surprisingly sharp. “Do you want to die?”

“...Please don’t disturb me while I’m working!”

Before long, Blood Moon’s hair had turned green. Following the instructions, Li Star-Moon continued fussing over it for quite some time before finally finishing.

“Done! All finished. I’m going to sleep now!”

“Wait, Star-Moon. Help me dye mine too!”

Li Star-Moon had just started toward the bedroom when the Nun called out to him once again.

He had intended to refuse sternly, but when he turned around and saw the Nun’s angelically beautiful face, the thought immediately vanished.

He swept the Nun’s long hair back and began applying the dye bit by bit. To his surprise, he discovered that a fragrance also wafted from her body.

The scent on her and Blood Moon was unlike the perfume produced by factories. To him, it felt more like... their natural fragrance.

Li Star-Moon became somewhat entranced by the scent and unconsciously voiced his thoughts. “Nun, you smell really good too!”

The Nun said nothing in response, but a blush slowly spread across her ears.

For an instant, Li Star-Moon seemed to feel an ambiguous atmosphere filling the air.

Unfortunately, two ill-timed voices interrupted the beautiful moment.

“Ooh, ooh, Nun, you smell so good! Hahahaha! Tyrant, isn’t it hilarious?”

The Tyrant’s face was swollen with suppressed laughter, turning almost purple. “I didn’t say anything, all right? It isn’t funny at all. Pfft—hahahaha!”

Their antics caused a blush to appear on the Nun’s face as well. As for Li Star-Moon, his expression darkened.

Damn it. If the weather hadn’t been so bad today, I would have beaten the two of you senseless!

Soon, the Nun’s hair was dyed pink as well.

Just as Li Star-Moon was about to go to sleep, the Tyrant and Shura “kindly and amicably” dragged him back.

There was nothing he could do. Li Star-Moon could only continue working. It took more than an hour before he finally finished.

“From now on, unless the sky is falling, do not call me for anything!”

After saying this, Li Star-Moon went straight into the bedroom and fell asleep.

In his dreams, Li Star-Moon seemed to return to the world he had once lived in. He saw his parents and had a meal with them. The whole family sat together, laughing and enjoying one another’s company...

He did not know how much time had passed before Li Star-Moon woke up. He touched the corner of his eye and realized that tears had somehow flowed down his face.

Feeling hunger rumbling in his stomach, he got dressed and went to the living room. The four of them were playing the Landlord card game.

When Li Star-Moon looked at the four of them again, a faint trace of surprise appeared in his heart!
