Chapter 172



The second her gaze fell on the orb, she jumped down the wall and then said to her three ghosts, ” What are you all waiting for? Go and catch it for me!” She wanted to see whose soul was this, only a soul that has cultivated for at least a few years could be this powerful to morph its shape and hide its figure like this.

” Yes!” The three ghosts chimed together as they rushed after the orb of flames that was hovering over the branch but as soon as they went over the orb, the orb of flames flickered and started flying in the opposite direction to where it was hovering a moment ago.

” What the...” Li Gang who was chasing after the orb muttered as his eyes widened when he saw the orb flying away from them. ” Don’t tell me that the thing is playing with us? Why is it that it was staying still when we were not chasing it but the second we started chasing after it, it started to fly away from us.”

“Or maybe it wants us to chase it,” Jia Li tried to break the situation as properly as it could in a sensible manner. ” Like Hui Ying said that those souls that do not have anyone who could help them, they do something like this. They attract the attention of celestial masters and then have them exorcised but that is not our worry at the moment, the one thing that we need to worry about is, to make sure that we see to whom this soul belongs to.”

“That’s right,” Grandma Lan Fen nodded as she increased her pace of chasing the orb of flames.

Liu Hui Ying on the other hand chased after the three who were flying in the air with her feet, even though she was no longer as agile as she was when she was in her own world where she lived before coming here, she was still able to keep up with the pace of the three ghosts.

The orb of flames teased them by turning here and there, it turned left and then right causing the three ghosts who were chasing after it to bump into things, one time Li Gang bumped into the tree that was right in front of me and then Jia Li who was chasing after it ended up rolling past the leaves of the thick fauna that was surrounding the imperial palace. Even Grandma Lan Fen who was flying slower than Jia Li and Li Gang ended up tumbling the second when the blue orb turned its left again and then flew past the veils of ivy.

But the one who suffered the most was Liu Hui Ying, the three ghosts could easily go past the things they tumbled past but Liu Hui Ying was not a ghost, she ended up stumbling into things left and right, and by the time she emerged out of her last fall, her hair was filled with leaves and her cheeks were covered with scars.

.....

“Arggg! That is enough!” She shrieked as she took out a talisman from her pocket. ” Forget it, I will just catch you and exorcise you here and now!”

No sooner did she say this, the orb of blue flames flickered and then vanished in the darkness of the night.

Liu Hui Ying who saw the blue orb vanish all of sudden felt like all her sufferings came forth, she looked at the spot where the orb was and then looked left and right, when she did not see the orb, the anger she was suppressing in her heart burst forth as she let out a scream.

...

Zhai Tianyu who returned to the palace turned his head to the cliff where he often had drinks with his ministers and frowned as he asked, ” Did you hear that? I heard someone screaming .”

” Most probably a wild bird or animal,” Zhai Heng did not think much as he sat down on the large boulder that sat on the side of the path that was carved in the middle of the barren land that was cleared off after taking down a part of the forest to build the imperial palace. He nursed his calves and then sighed, ” The place is built at the centre of the forest, there is no way that there will be nothing that will not cry at night.”

” That’s true but...”Zhai Tianyu as he turned to look in the direction from where the scream came and frowned. ” I think that the voice belonged to the queen.”

Zhai Heng shot Zhai Tianyu a look of exasperation as he rolled his eyes and then threw his head back with a sigh. ” You are thinking too much, your majesty. Why will the queen be at the cliff? You are simply feeling guilty because of what happened in the Liu family and nothing more.”

He then paused and then added with a subtle look in his eyes. ” Don’t go around messing anymore, Tianyu. I am telling this as your big brother ...the last thing that you want is to confess that you stole from her family, the Queen is a miser, and she will have you vomit every single tael that we have taken. And if that happens then what will happen to our soldiers? Do you want to have them all killed?”

“I am not going to do anything,” Zhai Tianyu told Zhai Heng as he pursed his lips and then turned to look away from the direction from where he heard the voice of the Queen. “And why will I confess to the Queen? Do you think I am scared of the Queen?”

“Hah,” Zhai Heng scoffed as he pushed himself off the stone on which he was sitting and then turned to leave.

” What? Are you trying to say that I am the one who is scared of the Queen? Are you mistaking me for Lingyun? Hey! Big brother!”
