The First and the Right

ked in a low voice."Um... this place feels kind of off.""It's more than just off! There's a hole under the bed in that room! I can see it, but no one else can!""A cave What kind of cave A hole in the...As soon as Jiang Qiyun finished speaking, he raised his hand and conjured a complex silver talisman. The talisman was incredibly powerful, and for a moment I felt my vision blur —

"Click." The elevator's light flickered on.

The oppressive darkness was all-consuming, and the minor demons shielded their eyes as if burned by the sun.

Light always gives people courage. Seeing Jiang Qiyun appear, dispelling the darkness and restoring light outside, I almost instinctively waved my sword again. This time, the purple lightning sword qi struck the little ghost directly, cleaving a deep wound on its body.

Jiang Qiyun's lips twitched imperceptibly, as if praising me for not standing there dumbfounded and missing the opportunity.

This sword cleaved through the small demon's arm and half his body. He showed no expression on his face, and black smoke billowed from the wound.

And from his face, in the whites of his gray-green eyes, black blood welled up.

What the heck is this This is magic!

I have a vivid memory of the Flesh Demon's condition, that gurgling black blood and meat slurry was horrifying.

This child is also a demon!

Jiang Qiyun raised his hand and made a gesture toward him. The ghost suddenly pointed to the window beside him.

"Bang!" A loud crash, the window shattered, and the barrier outside the window burst apart.

Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly, the Great Ghost Official grabbed that little demon and rushed out —

The sinister aura from beyond the barrier seeped in, and two little goblins wearing hats appeared before us nervously.

They knelt with a thump and said, "Greetings to Your Imperial Majesty!"

"Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes and didn't speak.

"

The two little devils were so scared they almost peed their pants, prostrating themselves on the ground and not daring to lift their heads.

What on earth is going on

This imperial capital's underworld is just like the human world, with layers of mist, complex relationships. It leaves outsiders feeling lost and confused, unable to grasp the situation.

I decided to discuss it with Jiang Qiyun later. I turned and walked to the kitchen to take a look.

The little girl was scared fainted, foaming at the mouth and collapsed by the kitchen door. Her lower body had also wet herself. Her hands were cut by shards of broken bowls, covered in blood and filth – it was truly disgusting.

What scared her so much was the sink, the bubbles in the sink gradually breaking apart, a pool of blood appearing in it, and there was...a rolling head.

Although I'm not as afraid of this kind of situation as I was at first, I still feel nauseous.

This ghost's resentment is too heavy, staring straight at me, as if it has something to say.

“Having said that, now is the time to hit the road. We shouldn't add to the karmic burden any further; it won’t benefit you.” I took out a small, hollow triangular offering altar – a simple ritual platform for dispelling bad spirits devised by the Shen family.

"I want them to come and keep me company..." the one-headed ghost rasped.

"They can't accompany you, even in death they'll go their separate ways, ignorant and oblivious...Why did you make such an impulsive choice to commit suicide Did you take drugs" I said.

"...That woman's friend, she once gave me some drugs. I got addicted. Every time we did it, I wanted to take the drugs and then I became violent with her. That's why she wanted to end things with me and started seeing Lao Qi... hehe..."

The female ghost's resentment was heavy, but her personality was really like a man's.

“Why were you caught by the demon” I asked.

The ghost looked at me blankly: "Demon What's that..."

Was she unaware

Jiang Qiyun walked to the study and said to me at the foot of the stairs, "Xiao Qiao, take her in, and ask her later."

"Oh...good." I hurriedly tossed the small triangle onto her head, muttered a spell, and with a faint flash of silver, the head and blood in the pool vanished.

Jiang Qiyun coldly glanced at the unconscious woman: "Don't bother with this woman. It's that man in the house...dead."

Huh

Dead!

"How is that possible! I just dispelled the gloomy energy in the house! That female ghost was even in the kitchen!"

I'm getting a little anxious, I've never made such a serious mistake before!

Just now Lao Qi went limp on the ground, and I only came out to see what was happening here. It's just that when I suddenly saw that little ghost's eyes emitting black air, I interrupted it.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” Jiang Qiyun reached out and held my shoulder.

"This isn't as simple as you see it. We've only scratched the surface," he sneered.

"What the hell is going on I feel like this ghost has a deep understanding of spiritual arts, but she's just an ordinary person, someone who died very recently." I looked up at Jiang Qiyun.

He lifted his hand, his cool fingertips tracing across my cheek, a shiver of coolness calming me slightly.

"She was being manipulated by that demon, otherwise how could she be so smart and cunning If you hadn't been here, both of you might have died." Jiang Qiyun sneered.

He narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems like I'll have to visit the City God Temple in the capital myself... Old Wang Ye is probably stretched thin and can't hold it anymore..."

"I'll call Shaoyi Hang first," I said, my heart feeling a bit chaotic. I need to call Shaoyi Hang and have him report the incident and call for an ambulance.

This kind of thing appearing in the news is just dinner table talk for the general public, let alone Shao Yihang having the ability to suppress it.

The two little imps crawled towards me, sobbing, and whispered, "Little Mistress, we really didn't mean to be late. We, we were trapped outside by the barrier and couldn't get in."

"What do you mean You're the ones who were supposed to escort the ghosts"

"Yes..."

"Who are that tall demon attendant and the child-like demon"

"We don't know... Little Lady, please plead on our behalf! We really didn't mean to be late!"

I looked up, Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes and looked at me, his gaze carrying a hint of warning.

I immediately swallowed my words of pleading, coughed and said with a pretense: "Even if you face obstacles, you should report quickly. You can't escape the charge of negligence. However, you are ghosts under Old King's command, so if there is punishment to be given, it will be by Old King himself. Dismissed."

Two little goblins immediately scurried away with their tails between their legs.

Jiang Qiyun looked at me and chuckled softly: “ … Thankfully you didn’t foolishly plead for mercy, otherwise I would have refused in front of them. Don't blame this seat for not giving the little empress face then.”

I purse my lips and press, "Honestly, I'm lost. Could you just tell me, what exactly have you been watching"

Jiang Qiyun pinched a tactic and shielded both of us, whispering, "That man's time of death doesn't match the Book of Life and Death. It happened half an hour earlier."

"Half an hour Well, he was going to die tonight anyway Then, what's the problem"

Jiang Qiyun smiled faintly: "...... there's a big problem here.", so he calls us "young friends" and we don't have to perform a grand bow."Master Abbot, due to the special circumstances, we didn't have the chance to pay our respects at the mountain gate. Please fo...
