Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Come in!” The hoa.r.s.e and unpleasant voice inexplicably gave people the creeps, but it was broad daylight and Xiao Zhang didn’t think much of it. Hearing Director Meng, he walked in and saw the boss sitting in his chair with his back to him.
Xiao Zhang was Father Meng’s secretary. He closed the door and went to report to his boss.
Usually, when Xiao Zhang gave his report, President Meng would take the initiative to speak. After Xiao Zhang talked for a few minutes, however, the boss had yet to say anything. Xiao Zhang felt that something wasn’t right and probed, “Director…” He abruptly cut off with a horrified expression when the chair suddenly turned around to reveal a rotting, twisted, and hideous ghost face.
Before Xiao Zhang could scream, the evil spirit’s hair suddenly extended and lashed out to wrap around the terrified Xiao Zhang’s neck. Bright red blood splattered and his head was immediately cut off.
Looking at the bright red blood all over the floor, the evil spirit finally gave a relieved, sinister smile.
In the Meng residence, Chen Meilin asked carefully, “Master Chi, when… can my daughter wake up? Why hasn’t she woken up?”
Chi Shuyan had tried to search for the girl’s soul just now. Fortunately, the evil spirit had yet to act against the girl, and the latter escaped calamity. She probably hadn’t woken up all this time because she was being suppressed by the evil spirit’s yin energy.
Now, it was just the head injury; it was only a matter of time before she woke up.
Chen Meilin was utterly convinced by Master Chi. After listening to her, Chen Meilin trembled with excitement. “Master Chi, is my daughter really alright? Is she really alright? She’ll wake up in a few days?”
Chen Meilin was too excited and in disbelief as she stared at Master Chi and waited for her to nod.
Chi Shuyan took out a jade token and immediately collected the yin energy that was in the room.
Although Chen Meilin couldn’t see any yin energy, her eyes almost popped out when she saw the jade pendant in Master Chi’s hand suddenly fly up and hover in the air, glowing with white light.
An expert! Truly an expert!
Chen Meilin was incomparably excited and glad that she had sincerely invited Master Chi back then. Given such an expert, how could anything happen to her daughter?
Chi Shuyan didn’t care about Chen Meilin’s excitement and only said to her, “The young lady is indeed fine. It’s just a minor head injury now. She should wake up in a few days, but it’s best that no one stays in this room for now. The yin energy is too strong, and not good for people!”
Chen Meilin naturally listened to whatever Master Chi said. She thought about how two major issues had been resolved today. Firstly, Old Meng was fine, and secondly, her precious daughter would wake up. If her daughter really woke up, she would be willing to kowtow to Chi Shuyan.
“Master Chi, thank you so much! Thank you so much!”
Chi Shuyan thought of Father Meng, but somehow felt that there was something strange about this matter. She hadn’t sensed anything strange when she entered the Meng residence just now, but she somehow felt that something wasn’t right about Chen Meilin’s words.
Although she had given Chen Meilin high-grade Exorcism Talismans before, they were only high-grade elementary Exorcism Talismans. It was also possible that they couldn’t suppress that evil spirit.
Chi Shuyan naturally hoped that Father Meng wasn’t possessed by the spirit. If he was, it would be a disaster for the family. Since she had taken the money, she had to do her job well. Chi Shuyan was prepared to have a good look, just in case. She curled her lip and suddenly said, “Madam Chen, if it’s not an imposition, can I take a look at your and Mr. Meng’s bedroom?”
How could Chen Meilin not know of Master Chi’s good intentions? Although she now firmly believed that Father Meng wasn’t possessed by that evil spirit, she would feel even more at ease if Master Chi could help her take a look!
