Chapter 1097 Trying to make things difficult for her
The celestial master hummed and stopped in his actions before he turned to look at Ji Ziyi and Cai Wu. He said, " I can deal with this malicious ghost. Though it's a bit tricky, I can surely handle it."
When the two women heard the words of the celestial master, they heaved a sigh of relief. Finally! They could get rid of that evil spirit! Even Cai Wu felt a bit at ease, she was really worried with what Song Yan told her. From what Song Yan told her, it could be seen that she was not going to deal with the malicious spirits until Ji Ziyi told her everything but Ji Ziyi was not willing to share anything which caused the situation to be in a stalemate.
How long could they drag this on? If something happened to Ji Ziyi then what would happen to her? She was sure that the Ji family would not let her have an easy time.
Thus, Cai Wu really hoped that this celestial master was reliable and knew what he was doing. She had found this celestial master after calling a lot of her connections as she wasn't someone who paid attention to this circle, after looking through a bunch of celestial masters she finally found this one master. Now she could only hope that this master was skilled enough to deal with this malicious spirit as he had promised her that he was really good at dealing with malicious spirits and he would deal with this ghost that was haunting Ji Ziyi in a jiffy.
What Cai Wu did not know was that Master Pei was just a swindler who relied on advanced technology methods to swindle people similar to Ji Ziyi and Cai Wu. He had never missed any of his clients as most of them were only scaring themselves by thinking too much, he was sure that Ji Ziyi and Cai Wu were the same.
Master Pei was really happy in his heart. Because this time he was sure that he would be able to make a large sum of money from these two women who were terrified out of their wits. It was really difficult for him to find people who were as desperate as Ji Ziyi, they would sooner or later doubt him which caused him to suffer a loss but this time he was sure to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!
Though he was snickering in his heart at Ji Ziyi's foolishness outwardly he maintained a very serious persona as he looked at Ji Ziyi and then said solemnly, " This ghost that is haunting Miss Ji is a ghost who is filled with grudges. I have never seen a ghost as terrifying as this one, Miss Ji ——from what I can see this ghost has some really bitter resentment and its relationship with you is not normal either. We need to resolve this matter really quickly or else you will be in grave danger!"
Ji Ziyi was really scared already. She was even more desperate than Cai Wu but when she heard the celestial master say that there was an uncommon relation between her and the ghost, a bright and beautiful face flashed in her eyes and she clenched her teeth harshly. She had an inkling who was the one haunting her!
She swallowed harshly as she looked around in her ward, was she really here? If so then which one? Ji Ziyi believed the celestial master even more as she came to a conclusion. She gritted her teeth and then said to celestial master Pei, " I don't care how much money you take but you have to deal with this ghost!"
She really wanted to ask if there was only one ghost or more but with Cai Wu's presence, she could not bring herself to open her mouth.
Celestial Master Pei looked at Ji Ziyi who was trembling and cheered inwardly in his heart and when his gaze fell on the bunch of talismans next to her pillow, he got even more happy. Looks like someone already made a profit from this woman, so why should he let it go?
He cleared his throat and then solemnly asked, " Miss Ji, where did you get these fake talismans from? Even if you keep them by your side you will not be able to ward this malicious spirit away from you. I suggest you take the ones that I brought with me."
Though the act of Master Pei was really good, Ji Ziyi was not that big of a fool, she had clearly seen the talismans working for the past few days. Thus, when she heard the words of the celestial master she could not help but suspect him.
But compared to Celestial Master Pei, Ji Ziyi suspected that Song Yan was the one who wanted to harm her!
Maybe she deliberately gave her a talisman that would not drive away the ghost and just gave her a few to fend the ghost off. What was more that woman was bent on digging into the past, something that she did not want!
Why did it matter what happened seven and six years ago? That woman clearly did not want to help her which was why she was playing with her by handing her weak talismans.
' She must have sensed that I wanted to get close to her husband!' Ji Ziyi thought angrily in her head, as a woman she knew how sharp married women could be especially when their husbands were really good men.
Her mother after all was the same.
Surely, that Song Yan sensed something and deliberately made things difficult for her!
Though she was upset with Song Yan, Ji Ziyi now suspected the master in front of her as well, thus she asked calmly, " Are you sure that these talismans cannot help me?"
Master Pei was slightly scared upon being questioned by Ji Ziyi. Did something happen with these talismans that he was not aware of? Though Master Pei's momentum slowed down he was not willing to give up yet!
