Chapter 233 : Petty Ghosts are Hard to Deal With 15 (1/2)

“Impossible… Qi Mo’s not that kind of person.” Su Yun shook her head in disbelief. ‘How could my Qi Mo be a scumbag who plays with women’s feelings? And then just watch from the side as Su Xin kills them… Not possible… Impossible…’

“Humans change.” Shi Sheng looked at Su Yun. “After you died, Qi Mo changed as well.”

Qi Mo truly did love Su Yun. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have put up a portrait to remember her by. But this love that spanned across the realms of the living and the dead was too heavy for one person. He had no way to confide in anyone. Over time, the pressure of living under such guilt built-up and caused his heart to grow twisted.

But as to why Qi Mo ended up the way he did, Shi Sheng couldn’t make a guess. The only plausible explanation was that since Su Yun had already died, Qi Mo felt like he wasn’t too far off either and no longer cared for the people around him.

Qi Mo quit struggling. His head went limp and he stopped breathing.

“Hahaha dead… dead… all dead… Su Yun… come. Join us. You’re one of us. You should be with us.” The hate spirit suddenly changed its target to Su Yun.

“No—I’m not.” Su Yun shook her head, but her expression was still dazed. It seemed like she still hadn’t processed what had happened just yet.

“But you are… And your daughter is waiting for you. Come…and you’ll be able to meet your daughter again…”

“Nian-Nian?” Su Yun’s empty gaze suddenly lit up. “Where’s Nian-Nian? My Nian-Nian…”

“She’s here, waiting for you… Come, Su Yun…”

“You killed Qi Nian…” An Su suddenly spoke up, her expression enraged, “She didn’t do anything wrong, why did you kill her?!”

Shi Sheng facepalmed. ‘This dummy… just see who’ll protect you when the hate spirit really gets angry.’

The hate spirit suddenly turned, agitated as it spoke with layered voices, “Then did we do anything wrong? The child pays for the father’s debts, what’s wrong with that? She deserved it for being Qi Mo’s daughter… daughter… ter…”

“You killed Nian-Nian?!” Su Yun screamed as she finally came to her senses. “You killed Nian-Nian!!!”

“She deserved it… Who told her to find someone to exorcise us?!” The hate spirit screeched.

They didn’t want to kill Qi Nian at first, but during her last visit, she said she wanted to find an expert to get rid of them. They still had yet to get revenge, so how could they allow themselves to be exorcised?

The hate spirit suddenly lunged towards Su Yun. “Come, Su Yun. Be with us and you can see your daughter again.”

The red light surrounding Su Yun’s body glowed brighter.

The hate spirit wanted to devour Su Yun. Su Yun wanted to avenge Qi Nian. One of them had to lose.

Su Yun had been trapped in this place for many years. Her strength wasn’t at the same level asa hate spirit that had killed quite a few people; it didn’t take long for her to fall into a disadvantageous position.

Shi Sheng wasn’t happy at all. That was her food!

She was already being generous by giving them a chance to exact revenge, but now they wanted to snatch her food? Simply unacceptable!

Shi Sheng charged over and slashed wildly at the hate spirit with her sword.

The hate spirit had already experienced the might of that sword before, so it quickly dodged backwards, not daring to face it head-on. After dodging the sword, it suddenly charged towards An Su. “What a delicious spirit physique…”

An Su was startled into rapidly backpedaling, but her legs gave out in fear and she fell to the ground. Feng Jin happened to be standing beside her, but he merely watched on coldly. Shi Sheng was too far away to help.

At the critical moment, Nalan Ying suddenly appeared and shot the hate spirit a cold gaze. Sensing his killing intent, it quaked as it tried to flee.

A cold light shot through the black fog. The hate spirit didn’t even have time to scream before it quickly crumbled to dust and dispersed into the air.

Nalan Ying helped An Su up, but An Su’s face when looking at him was a bit uneasy. She wrestled free from his grasp and walked a few steps in Feng Jin’s direction.

Nalan Ying looked towards Feng Jin, who was looking at Shi Sheng. Suddenly, a talisman appeared in Feng Jin’s hand and he tossed it out. Itwas stretched out paper-thin as it shot at Su Yun like a sharp blade. The moment it touched her, the talisman glowed with a faint red light and melted into Su Yun’s body.
