Chapter 122: Empty Room
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ghost pills could only be refined by killing, so they gathered the spiritual energy of all kinds of vengeful spirits. Generally speaking, ghosts would use this thing to increase their cultivation so that they could become malicious ghosts as soon as possible.
This was also the first time Shen Chun had seen a ghost feed someone such a thing.
However, the female ghost did not seem to want to become a malicious ghost. All her cultivation was used to protect her human form.
“Evil creature, you’ve killed countless people. Aren’t you going to apologize?” Shen Chun took out a talisman and quickly bit her middle finger before writing runes on it. “Heaven and Earth Hidden Latch, clear north and south, break!”
A whip-like lightning flashed across the cloudless blue sky and struck the female ghost.
“All —” The female ghost was in so much pain that her face broke into pieces.
“Mom…” Hu Jing raised her lifeless eyes and leaned into the female ghost’s arms.
Shen Chun’s talisman was written for ghosts, so it couldn’t hurt her.
I’m fine. Baby, continue eating. I’m full.” The female ghost’s dislocated mouth let out a gentle female voice. There was a large wound on her back, so she shouldn’t be able to resist, but she was still trying her best to piece together the face.
She turned around and glared at Shen Chun as she said aggressively. “I didn’t kill anyone. I only used the animals in the mountains to refine pills. What crime am I guilty of?!”
Her voice was so hoarse that Lan Shan couldn’t help but shiver.
“Look at yourself. You’re no longer human.” Shen Chun knew that she was at her limit. After a while, her rationality would disappear, and she would no longer be able to control the urge to kill.
Whether one was a human or an animal would no longer be important to her.
At this moment, Hu Jing, who was in the female ghost’s arms, walked out. She hugged the female ghost’s “neck” as she muttered, “Mom, don’t go. Let’s go home together.”
The female ghost nodded at Shen Chun pleadingly. “I’ll leave. Fortune teller, please help us.”
Due to her serious injuries, she lost the last bit of spiritual energy and her body gradually became transparent.
Shen Chun also put down the talisman.
She also began to wonder what made her so obsessed that she insisted on accompanying her child even if she became a ghost.
If she crushed her delusions, she would probably be able to reincarnate safely. “Come, hold my hand, okay?” Shen Chun reached out to Hu Jing.
A ball of black energy appeared on Hu Jing’s forehead. If this continued, her face would become paler and paler until she passed away and became the next female ghost.
Hu Jing shook her head, her eyes still lifeless. “I want to be with Mommy. Mommy is pulling me.”
However, the female ghost avoided the child’s outstretched hand. “No, baby, hold her hand.”
Hu Jing looked at her mother in confusion, but agreed to her mother’s suggestion.
Shen Chun felt a little relieved. It seemed that the female ghost knew that she was bad for the child and was thinking for the child’s sake. Since everyone’s intentions were the same, things would be much easier.
Shen Chun’s phone rang.
“Where are you?” Fu Shi was a little anxious. “The event has been canceled. We’re going home now. Where are you? We’ll pick you up.”
“No need. I have something to deal with here.” Hearing his anxious voice, Shen Chun couldn’t help but smile. “Why? Do you miss me, Hubby?”
Fu Shi, who was on the other end of the phone, could not take it anymore and quickly changed the topic. “The child is with you too, right?”
The child was gone, and so was Shen Chun, so he had expected this.
“Yes, I’ll be back after I’m done. Wait for me to go home.” With that, Shen Chun blew him a kiss.
Fu Shi hurriedly hung up.
Shen Chi couldn’t help but cover his mouth and snicker when he saw that Fu Shi’s face turned red again.
What Shen Chun did not expect was that the female ghost brought them to a very lavish small villa.
The renovation and the well-dressed guard at the entrance of the neighborhood made Shen Chun feel the wealth.
Seeing that Shen Chun came with Hu Jing, the guard didn’t say anything else. He gave them a strange look before letting them in.
“Welcome to my house-”
When Hu Jing turned on the lights, Lan Shan and Shen Chun were stunned.
Everything in the house, including the walls, was black..
