e crawled backward constantly, hiding in the corner."Hey, dollface, what are you doing here Time to go home, there's no need to be hiding out here," my brother said, waving a talisman."See this, we ca...That thing came too fast, and I instinctively ducked behind Jiang Qiyun. It hit the shoe cabinet in the hallway, stopping it for a moment.

Jiang Qiyun held me in his arms and whispered, "Have you forgotten the Jin Guang Divine Incantation"

"I'll use both hands to conjure a golden light, unlike you who don't even need incantations." I stuck out my tongue.

The martial artist, terrified to the point of trembling legs, was mere inches from the thing he had fallen on. He almost fainted, ignoring the shards of glass in his hands and collapsing next to me, shouting: "Help—help me—"

"Be quiet," I whispered.

He bit his lips and cried out in fear, "Help... help me, Miss Mu!"

Master He and Daoist Liu outside the door heard the cry for help and pulled open the door wanting to come in. I happened to be at the entrance hall, blocking their way and saying, "Since you two are fellow Daoists, you must understand the rules, please wait outside."

My brother snorted coldly and said, "You ran out in fear just now, and now you're coming back wanting to do what Are you trying to make a false accusation"

Master He roared, "Since we were all invited to help Young Master Su with his predicament, how can you accuse us of extortion!"

I feel that something is amiss with this Master He. Quickly, I'll preempt him by using the Shackle Ghost Technique to bind the belongings of that "Young Master Su" on the ground.

This spell has limited effect on living people, we need to control it quickly. My brother and Xiao Shanming immediately pressed down on his head and leg, taking out a talisman paper and pressing it on Master Su's head.

Su Gongzi's hands were clenched tightly in front of her chest, her eyes darting around, and she was panting heavily with a sound like a bellows.

He was experiencing excruciating pain, his whole body curled up like a shrimp.

Our exorcism has always been gentle, never with the aim of extermination, basically leading them to enlightenment.

"Who are you, evil spirit, possessing this human" I muttered the incantation for warding off spirits and crouched down to inquire.

All I got in response was the painful panting sound of "wheeze, wheeze."

"Little Qiao, I'm afraid asking won't help in this situation... Maybe we should first subdue the ghost This young master seems like he's about to kick the bucket." I frowned and said.

Miss Su should have been possessed for some time. Her behavior is abnormal, her mind is wandering, and she has a tendency to self-harm before. Her forehead is almost covered with bruises and scabs, looking quite terrifying.

I seal the evil spirits within the prison of my magical incantation. As usual, for any kind of ghost or spirit, I will use a small altar to perform a supersition ritual.

As I reached out to take the small altar, a sudden chill swept through me from behind, as if a gust of wind had passed through.

As soon as the gate to the prison for demons appeared, the evil spirits on Su Gongzi's body suddenly broke free from the shackles of the Ghost Binding Curse and talismans. They let out a piercing shriek. A face that couldn't be seen clearly flew out from Su Gongzi's body, twisting in agony, and shot towards the door like an arrow.

There was a warding talisman pasted on the door by my elder brother, but at this moment, it was crowded with Master He, Daoist Liu, and an anxious government official’s wife. I don't know who knocked one of the talismans off!

A corner of the barrier at the entrance was breached, and the ghost seemed to be yanked outwards by a tremendous force, fleeing at incredible speed. The chains of the prison for evil spirits didn't even have time to catch it.

Jiang Qiyun raised an eyebrow slightly. The Emperor usually wouldn't bother with such small spirits, but he hadn't expected this thing to be so powerful. My "Li Lü Shou Xie" charm, while not particularly strong, is able to subdue ghosts faster than chains. It's quite rare to see something like that.

And Jiang Qiyun rarely interfered with my assignments, instead he would scrutinize them like a teacher checking homework, frowning and saying, “Your calculation is still too slow.”

I was covered in cold sweat, yet I couldn't refute it. I could only quickly recite the incantation and summon the divine tiger again.

Seeing the Divine Tiger leap through the air in pursuit of the fleeing ghost, my brother grabbed the military strategist and said, "Brother, do you want to save Young Master Su"

The military director was so scared that he couldn't speak coherently. My brother asked him anything, and he answered anything. In just a few sentences, he revealed several important passwords from Area C.

My brother rushed downstairs and took us for a joyride, Xiao Shanming excitedly fastened his seatbelt: "Where are we going! Where is that white tiger from just now!"

"It's just within the area, remember when we left just now, wasn't there a lamp in District C Someone must have set something up there!" my brother said.

I nodded and added, “We were going to check out Zone C earlier, but Master He said it was absurd. When we insisted on going, there was nothing unusual. We walked all the way there before realizing a room had its lights on. Maybe they were trying to hide from us, or perhaps something was happening with accomplices inside.”

My brother jerked the steering wheel, and the car sped off onto the road.

The divine tiger was already far out of sight. I clutched the seal tightly, not daring to let go, for fear of breaking the connection.

When I get nervous, I almost forget Jiang Qiyun is right beside me.

He looked at me faintly, without speaking.

Until I stepped out of the car and almost twisted my ankle, being caught by Jiang Qiyun's arm, did I realize that Lord Di Jun had been watching me silently all along.

"...Be careful." Jiang Qiyun instructed lightly.

"Well, wait for me, let me finish what I'm doing and I have something to ask you." I said hastily.

"Huh" He looked at me with a smile, seeming a little surprised — that I, so submissive, would have anything to ask him.

It's pretty late now. The underground parking lot has automated barriers, and no one stopped us. My brother used the password given by Wu Jingli and directly took the personal elevator into the office building in Area C.

The office building had a passageway leading directly to the factory area, which was vast and eerily silent. The oppressive atmosphere sent chills down my spine.

A place this big would need at least a thousand people coming and going to properly balance the energy.

Both the workplace and home are similar in that being too crowded or too empty is not good. A person's aura has its limits, and if it cannot balance with its surroundings, it can lead to some unpleasant things happening.

Why are villas always prone to bad things, or abandoned places easy to attract ghosts It's because the "qi" of stagnation (negative energy) is greater than the "qi" of life (positive energy), and yin energy outweighs yang energy.

We stood on the second floor hallway leading to the factory area. A chill permeated the air from within the passage, as if unusual sounds were whispering and groaning in the distance.

Once a person feels something is amiss, their mind will invariably wander, telling themselves there are no ghosts in the world while simultaneously feeling a chill down their spine from fear.

If you keep this up, you'll easily become listless and depressed. If you also have bad living habits and a weak body, you'll be more susceptible to negative energies and attract some evil spirits.

"I wouldn't believe this place was empty if I hadn't seen it myself." My brother scoffed, rubbing his arms. "I'm getting chills."

"What do we do The factory is so big, where are we going to look" Xiao Shanming asked.

I pinched the seal and silently recited the incantation, a white tiger descending from the sky.

"Where is that thing" I touched the white tiger's neck.

The white tiger roared at the mouth of the dark passage, scattering a good amount of the oppressive air, only for it to quickly gather back around us.

"Are we supposed to go in through this passage" My brother sounded a bit hesitant.

"Otherwise Looks like we're going to the factory area." I looked at my brother, who was unusually hesitant.

"It's not that I'm cowardly, Xiao Qiao. I just feel a little queasy here." My brother explained hastily.

"What does it mean to feel queasy" I'd never heard him describe the unknown like that before.

I've seen it all, from broken limbs to dismembered bodies and mangled flesh. Is there anything more horrifying

My brother shrugged. "I can't really say why, it just makes me sick... Whatever, if you're going I'm coming too, let's go."

Jiang Qiyun narrowed her eyes slightly, a hint of a smile playing on her lips as she looked at my brother.

What's gotten into him today He seems so happy.

I racked my brain, almost forgetting the increasingly heavy malice around me... yourself in check. If I find out you've done something you shouldn't have, just wait and see."He threatened me coldly.I rolled my eyes. Eighteen years old and they're still so controlling... My fathe...
