Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

As soon as Mu s.h.i.+ came back from Yu Qianjiao’s yard, Shuang Tao came over and said, “Madam, sorceress Bai is here. She has been waiting in the side room for a long time.”

Since using the detoxification elixir that General Yu brought back from northern Xinjiang, Yu Qianjiao’s body had begun to recover, and Mu s.h.i.+’s heart has gradually relaxed. Now when she heard that sorceress Bai was coming, her heart was tight again: “Her? What is she doing here?”

Shuang Tao said: “I don’t know, but looking at the sorceress, it seems that there is something important.”

Mu s.h.i.+ sighed, “Call her in.”

What an eventful autumn!

Sorceress Bai floated into the room, dressed in a pale blue Taoist robe and holding a duster.

“I haven’t seen you for a few days, has the lady been doing well?” The wounds from Yu Linglong have healed, and sorceress Bai appeared to be an able person again. At this time, she was polite, respectful, and gracious towards Mu s.h.i.+.

Mu s.h.i.+ really couldn’t think it would be anything good. The whole family in the Yu house was disturbed by a Yu Linglong. How could she possibly be the mistress of the house?

Mu s.h.i.+ barely smiled and raised her hand to give up her seat: “Thank you sorceress for your concern, everything’s fine.”

Sorceress Bai leisurely sat down, but her eyes looked at Mu s.h.i.+’s face from time to time, with an unpredictable appearance.

Mu s.h.i.+ was a little disturbed by sorceress Bai and couldn’t help but ask: “Why did you come here?”

Sorceress Bai smiled faintly: “It was because last time, the fourth lady of your house—“

Mu s.h.i.+ hurriedly said: “This matter is all her fault. She offended you, and I ask you to be generous, and don’t cause a fuss.”

After thinking for a while, she asked, “What conditions do you still have?”

Mu s.h.i.+ thought that sorceress Bai had come to extort her silver again. Although sorceress Bai was beaten when she failed to get rid of ghosts last time, most of it was the responsibility of the Yu Mansion. Besides, she was a lady of the inner house, she couldn’t dare offend her.

This is what is meant by “it’s easier to invite the devil in than to send him away.”

Unexpectedly, sorceress Bai slowly shook her head, and said with a righteous and stern look: “What does the madam think of me? Is it me who is greedy for money and forgetting justice!?”

As soon as she said this, Mu s.h.i.+’s heart was even more uncertain. Sorceress Bai took the initiative to come to the door this time, and she did not ask for the silver with a clear price. What was she going to do?

Sorceress Bai Xian shook the duster lightly and said, “Since I have been entrusted by the lady to expel evil spirits from your house last time…well, something happened…”

Last time she was violently beaten by Yu Linglong, but she didn’t get anything done. Sorceress Bai was much more depressed than Mu s.h.i.+. If this matter got out, wouldn’t she still need her reputation?

Fortunately, Yu Linglong gave her another chance. If this thing was done, she would not only redeem her lost reputation but also make a fortune.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

Of course, the most important thing was that Yu Linglong could get away with it.

Sorceress Bai Xian cleared her throat and continued: “I have lived in the mansion these days, and I have seen a lot of clues. This evil spirit is really cunning, and even this immortal’s magic eyes have been deceived…”

Mu s.h.i.+ looked sorceress Bai’s lips up and down, mystified by her words.

What did sorceress Bai mean? Did the Yu house really have ghosts?

Sorceress Bai talked rapidly for a long time, and only then did Mu s.h.i.+ understand a little bit. Sorceress Bai meant that she did not live in the Yu house for the sake of extorting Mu s.h.i.+ of her silver but to be able to see the fengshui of the Yu house in different ways and find out the root cause of the evil. After her observation, she finally judged that the Yu Mansion was indeed corrupted, not by a demon or a devil, but by a vengeful ghost. The disasters that occurred in the Yu Mansion during this period were all caused by this.
