Fu Shu Chang was in disbelief as fear coursed through his body but the thing that was possessing his body was thrilled by it. All the eyes and mouths turned to the door as they chanted, " Blood, Blood, Blood! I want to gnaw on her flesh! I have missed it so much!"
It was not just Fu Shu Chang who was stunned even Fang Yanli was shocked, she did not expect something like this to happen.
She has known Fu Shu Chang for a long time and the man has never once shown signs of being possessed by a demon which was why she only thought that he was under a spell or something of the sort.
Lo and behold, it turned out that the man was actually giving shelter to a demon! And what did she hear? That this man has once feasted on the flesh of a human, if that was the case then Song Yan would have to kill him.
Because as Fang Yanli looked at the thing that was possessing the side of Fu Shu Chang's face, she realised that the thing has been there were years, and with the passage of time it has taken hold of the other half of Fu Shu Chang's body, it would be nearly impossible for Song Yan to save Fu Shu Chang's life and take care of that thing.
These two have fused together so much that Fang Yanli could not see how Song Yan will be able to take this thing out without taking Fu Shu Chang's life.
" What should I do now?" Fang Yanli muttered as she hovered in the corner of Fu Shu Chang's office. Should she call Song Yan? But if she calls Song Yan then wouldn't it mean that Song Yan has to kill this man with her own hands —— if so then she will be taking a brother, a grandson and a husband from her family members' lives.
Will they be able to forgive her? And even if the members of the Fu family forgive her will Li Wenyi who would become a widow be able to forgive Song Yan?
No wonder Fu Shu Chang never asked for Song Yan's help, he knew that it was an impossible case and if Song Yan helped him then she might as well become the murderer of her own brother-in-law and be hated by her family all over again.
" Researcher Fu? Are you in there?" Hu Ya who came to submit her report on the acidic bile that was found on the bodies of the two guards frowned, she was sure that " Researcher Fu stayed in the lab on the full moon night, so why was he not answering her?
"Researcher Fu? I know that you are in the office, please take this report!" She said again through the door and Fu Shu Chang on the other side almost got up from his chair as the other half of his body willed him to move.
" Damn it," he cursed as he held on to the edge of his table as the demon in his body tried to take control. " Someone please save that girl from me …please," he muttered as his fingers turned white from the effort of holding on to the edge of his table and not rushing at Hu Ya.
" Blood…Blood! Kill her! Kill that woman! She is an annoyance! Lady Chen says to kill her!" The thing chanted on the side as Fu Shu Chang continued to stop the other half of the body.
" Kill her! Kill her! KILL HER!"
" I...I don't want to be a murderer, please! Stop! I beg you!" Fu Shu Chang closed his eyes and Fang Yanli looked at the man, she pursed her pale lips that were coated with black specks and then finally came to a conclusion.
Maybe it was better for this man to die, this life was not meant for him.
She turned around and floated past the wall but before she left, Fang Yanli took one last look at Fu Shu Chang who was trying to hold onto his senses and heaved her chest even though she could not breathe, " If you become a ghost like me, then I will treat you better than Zhou Yuan."
Since Fu Shu Chang has killed someone he has to pay the price of taking a life that did not belong to him.
With that, she turned around and went looking for Song Yan.
….
Song Yan has been looking for evidence if there were any other bodies left in the spot where Gao Mei's body was found, of course, she smelled a thick stench of blood covering the entire place and furrowed her brows before she covered her nose.
Since her senses were better than the others, she could of course smell the scent of corpses that were here but could not be seen. She looked around the forest and then entered when she saw that she could not see anything clearly, as soon as she entered the moon up above her vanished and the scent of corpses became even thicker.
With a quick look around the space, she turned to walk over the space where the scent was coming from and finally came to a stop in front of a tree that was old and looked hollowed. It barely had any leaves on it but as Song Yan looked at it carefully she could see that its bark was covered in blood ——
She stretched her hand to touch it when——
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing here ?"
