ghost steal for It can't eat or use anything..."My brother, while speaking, extended his sword and gently lifted a corner of his robe.The grayish-white shadow was very blurry, so blurry that it looked...As soon as I stepped in, I realized that the study was incredibly spacious. It had two floors connected by a staircase leading upstairs. And at the dark corner of the staircase, a pair of blood-red eyes were fixed on us.

Master Qi's face and chest were scratched bloody, he roared, "You young brats, don't you know it's disrespectful to interfere with others' practices!"

"I'm returning your words to you! Who interrupted us just now" My brother kicked him out the door.

Those blood-red eyes stared straight at me, hissing.

"Hey, your master has been retaliated against by you, you don't have to deal with the Lin family anymore, come down, let's see if we can help you pass on." My brother shouted upstairs.

The black apparition's form was now more complete, having apparently absorbed a lot of Lili's life force. It looked like a whole human figure, but it still hunched over and was pitch black all over.

"Mu... Mu... Xia Qiao..." The shadow suddenly choked back a sob and whispered.

I was startled, this guy knows me!

A dark shadow suddenly leaped down from above, landing on all fours. A pair of blood-red eyes stared straight at me, and it lunged towards me with a ferocious roar!

The crimson glow on the ring intensified, and a colossal shield materialized before me. This time, it wasn't just for defense; the shadow was violently repelled by the shield, crashing into the wall and emitting sizzling black smoke all around it.

I quietly touched my belly. This child's magical power was much stronger than it had been at first. The previous shield didn't have this kind of imposing aura.

The little imp behind me clutched the iron chain and said, “Little Empress, this soul looks familiar… The Eastern Ghost Emperor once imprisoned a soul-refining practitioner and sent notices to all city gods, warning us to be careful of this kind of sorcery!”

Eastern Ghost Emperor Is it Shen Tu and Yu Lei, the divine deities who govern Taoshi Mountain and the Netherworld Gate

When Jiang Qiyun saved me last time, he summoned a gigantic Ghost Gate. Countless chains flew out from it, dragging away the evil spirits in Chongmiao Fort and that female ghost named Mu Mei. That Mu Mei was the soul puppet created by Mu Yunliang.

"Is this still a typical case of the underworld"

I looked at the shadowy figure, crackling with smoke and rolling on the ground, and asked the little ghost messenger: "Is this also a soul refining process"

"Well, it feels the same...like half my soul was drawn out and fused with other demonic souls. His master must be very powerful to accomplish such a technique of separating souls and refining them."

Soul Separation! This is Mu Yunliang's specialty, isn't that right The Wood Demon wasn't made by him, was it Then this black ghostly figure in front of us is—

"Mu Xiaqiao! Mu Xiaqiao——why won't you save me!" Guiying roared with a voice like a broken bellows, he lay in the corner like a quadruped, his bloodshot eyes filled with resentment.

My brother reacted, his face pale. He whispered, "You... you are, Mu Yunliang!"

Isn't this Mu Yunliang! His whole body's skin has been peeled off, leaving only a crimson muscle underneath, not even an eyelid, his bulging eyes are bloodshot red.

"Damn, wasn't he sent away by Old Madam Shen!" My brother dodged Mu Yunliang's attack abruptly and ran to hide beside me.

"...Perhaps during the peeling of the soul, that person took advantage of him not being dead and performed a separation of the living soul. The half sent away by Old Madam Shen was only one part, this half was then used for refining."

"What the hell is going on I'm totally confused!" my brother spat.

It's not hard to understand. According to our guess, it was Situ Lin who manipulated all of this. Then Mu Yunliang's human skin and ghost should be controlled by him.

"Mu Xiaqiao... Xiaqiao..." His hoarse voice kept calling my name.

"Mu Yunliang, why did you hurt Lili" I asked.

"...She sent you to collect me... I don't want to go to the Underworld... My human skin hasn't been returned to me... Master promised to give it back to me..."

My brother, in a sudden burst of inspiration, bargained with him: "Here's the deal, you go to the underworld peacefully first, and we'll find your skin for you. If we find it, we'll burn it for you, alright Brothers stick together through thick and thin, we'll avenge you."

Unfortunately, the opponent was already in a daze, only remembering their oath to their master. They roared and charged again! The two little imps pulled on the iron chain secretly, tightening the soul lock around the shadow. My brother raised his乾坤法劍 and swung it down!

A cluster of black blood splattered out, the roars of vengeful spirits and my brother urging the little ghost messengers sounded chaotic, but I heard a light tinkling sound, “Ding-a-ling...”

It seemed to drift from afar, light and ethereal, with a faint whisper of chanting accompanying it.

My brother was using the Universe-Shifting Sword to pierce the shadow’s back. Two little ghosts were forcefully trying to bind the spirit when a series of delicate bell chimes rang out.

"Oh no, someone is stealing our souls!" the little ghost exclaimed.

"Damn it, this must be the master summoning him! Quickly lock his soul!" My brother urged the two little imps.

The bell grew closer, and the young demon hurriedly slapped his token onto the shadow's head, completing the soul-locking!

"Come on, come on, hurry back and take credit!" The cute little demon rushed over and waved at me: "Little Empress, let's catch more evil spirits next time!"

Wait, what You guys are here to ghost hunt with me! Are you serious

When they disappeared, the bell stopped abruptly. My brother sneered, "I bet the owner is going to be furious. We've beaten him to it several times now."

"Just say less...maybe this master is—" I quietly mouthed the shape of Situ Lin's name.

Given his family's reputation, Si Tu Lin wouldn't dare to show himself and do these things. Yet, he secretly orchestrated so many poison attacks.

"Alright, alright, let's exorcise the study... five million, eh... la la la~," my brother hummed a little tune. So, I guess with the right weaponry and connections, dealing with ghosts isn't that hard!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

I helped him stick the talisman. Watching it burn silently and automatically in the room with no wind, I waited for the green smoke to dissipate. Then, Lin Yanhua's voice came from the doorway: "Miss Mu, you can come in now"

"Okay, come in. That thing's already been taken care of." I replied lazily.

"Is this a temporary farewell, or a permanent one" Lin Yanhuan asked with a stern face.

"This time it's gone for good, but what if you, Mr. Lin, offend someone again in the future There's no such thing as a permanent solution." I smiled and put away the small compass.

Qi Daoshi covered his face wound with a towel, incredulously asking, "You two actually managed to kill the evil spirit!"

I shook my head. "No killing, we just sent him to the underworld."

Master Qi, do you have anything else to say Lin Yanhuan raised his hand to stop him: "That's enough, thank you all for your hard work. The remuneration owed will be paid immediately by the Lin family."

His words were equivalent to "Shut up and get out."

Master Qi glared at me resentfully, then turned and left with his assistant.

Lin Yanhuan immediately walked over and asked with concern, "Miss Mu, are you injured—"ed my shoulders and forced me to kneel on the marble stone platform!"Waa...waa..." I bit my lip, trying not to cry out. My knee was practically shattered!"I make you kneel to appease the resentment. D...
