CHAPTER 32: CHAPTER 31: SEVERING KARMA WITH MONEY!

After Song Lanyi committed such a heinous act, she dared to attack others.

Even Ms Mei was dragged away by the Dragon Shadow Guards under Xie Jiuxiao’s orders, facing inevitable imprisonment.

Song Cheng and Mr Song stood by coldly, indifferent to the cries of the mother and daughter.

They had already shown utmost benevolence towards Ms Mei and Song Lanyi.

Yu Nianzhao nonchalantly said, "Look, this is the downside of having a concubine—competing for power and affection, isn’t this just causing trouble for oneself?"

Song Cheng, who was the Chief of Staff of the Ministry of Rites, powerful outside, could only offer a wry smile to Yu Nianzhao, who had just saved everyone in the Song Mansion.

Xie Jiuxiao nodded slightly, "Indeed, to be so easily swayed by the Corpse Ghost’s emotions, becoming a scumbag who favors a concubine over his wife, one’s will is too weak."

Scumbag?

Hearing the word ’scumbag’ from Xie Jiuxiao’s mouth, Song Cheng felt extremely frustrated.

We’re all men, and you’re saying this?

Were it not for the surrounding Evil Qi, no woman could easily approach, Prince Su, don’t make me lose face.

Song Cheng replied with a forced smile, "Prince, you must be joking. You haven’t experienced the might of this Corpse Ghost; such a bewildering consciousness is not something an average person can resist."

Mr Zhao was shocked, "Mr. Song, you shouldn’t say that. The evil attached to this Prince is far more ferocious than yours, and it’s not just one or two evils; if it were an ordinary person, they’d be dead by now."

Slap!

Song Cheng had already heard the sound of his own slap in the face.

Fine!

He must be out of his mind to compare evils with this calamity star; indeed, there’s no comparison.

"Thank you, Miss Yu, my face has truly recovered."

Song Caiwei touched her flawless skin, overwhelmed with joy and bowed gratefully to Yu Nianzhao.

"No need to be so polite with me; I do charge for this."

Yu Nianzhao hungrily glanced at Song Caiwei, whose body was increasingly radiant after the removal of the Earth Spirit.

[Master, it’s fortunate we helped this woman. The merit on her is considerable, and the extra can even feed me.]

[Yes, Master, the taste of merit is very fragrant.]

[Want to eat, want to eat!]

[Want to eat...]

Jiu’s voice made Yu Nianzhao even more eager.

Getting closer to Song Caiwei, both Xie Jiuxiao and Luu Shaochen’s eyes turned colder.

Song Caiwei looked at the beauty close in front of her, shyly saying, "Whatever Miss Yu wants, I will offer it with both hands."

Luu Shaochen broke a branch, which snapped with a sound.

Xie Jiuxiao picked up a stone and crushed it into powder.

"Alright, then I won’t be polite."

Yu Nianzhao eagerly took action, gripping the golden light from Song Caiwei’s body, taking some for herself and feeding some to Jiu Ying.

[Truly delicious...]

In her ear was Jiu Ying’s satisfied sigh.

Raising a gluttonous snake isn’t easy!

"I’ve taken it; rest assured, the scars on your face were maliciously transferred by Song Lanyi, but the Evil Spirits and ghosts have been dispelled, so there’s no more worry for you and your mother."

Yu Nianzhao still had the residual merit value, feeling her body warm and cozy.

She threw the dispelled little ghost to Mr Zhao, then approached Xie Jiuxiao, wrapping her warm little hand around his big palm, passing the warmth to him.

Looking up at him with a look of pity.

Who knows at what age he was filled with Evil Qi, having never felt any warmth growing up?

How pitiful!

In light of the Evil Qi he provides, let’s give little Xie some warmth.

Xie Jiuxiao’s body stiffened for a moment, looking down into Yu Nianzhao’s bright eyes, feeling the warmth coming from her hand.

The ice in his eyes began to melt, his lips curling up slightly.

As expected, she still likes him the most.

Since the marriage has already been granted, it’s not impossible to indulge her a little.

They exchanged smiles, but their feelings were worlds apart.

Mu Hongxuan: Hmph, how detestable! Showing off your affection!

Song Caiwei paused, looking confused, "Taken? What has been taken?"

No matter what, she was immensely grateful.

Yu Nianzhao turned and said to Song Cheng, "I’ve conveniently exorcised the evil spirits from the Song Mansion, but it’s not free; you need to pay to sever the karma, or Song Mansion’s misfortune will continue."

Mr Zhao nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, metaphysics is very particular about these things; using silver to sever karma is very worthwhile."

"Alright, alright, there’s no need for Miss Yu to ask, I certainly intend to pay."

Song Cheng quickly ordered people to fetch the money; two full boxes of silver were brought in, "Here are a total of ten thousand taels of silver, Miss Yu, is it enough? If not, I’ll have them fetch more."

Ten thousand taels?

Mr Zhao and Mu Hongxuan gasped.

Truly generous!

But Song Mansion is a noble family, and Mr Song is the Emperor’s mentor, a relationship many wish to attach themselves to. Having accumulated over the years, offering ten thousand taels is actually quite normal.

Mr Song stroked his beard, speaking seriously, "Miss Yu deserves it. Without her help, no one in Song Mansion could have survived; even giving more would be justified."

Yu Nianzhao had little concept of worldly silver, lifting her eyes to look at Xie Jiuxiao.

Xie Jiuxiao replied calmly, "This is what you deserve."

Yu Nianzhao accepted it frankly, "Then this is it; the karma is resolved, and the misfortune of Song Mansion will gradually dissipate."

"Good, thank you, Miss Yu."

Mr Song’s view of Yu Nianzhao had changed from their first meeting, now filled with admiration.

Such profound metaphysical skills, unmatched by any other metaphysical family.

"Sister..."

Song Jiling had awakened earlier, all the ghostly evil on him had been completely dispelled by the Blade of Judgement.

Upon waking, he was filled with guilt, recalling his previous actions towards Song Caiwei, regretting so much he wanted to slap himself.

He knelt before Song Caiwei with reddened eyes, "I’m sorry, Sister, it truly wasn’t intentional before; there was a voice in my head telling me to target you; it’s all my fault, I made you sad, I’m sorry, Sister."

Song Caiwei smiled forgivingly, helping him up, "You are my flesh and blood brother. I knew your drastic change in behavior wasn’t intentional. Remember, we’ve always been best friends, and you’ve always followed me around, calling me ’Sister’ since childhood."

Song Jiling was deeply touched, "Sister!"

Yu Nianzhao glanced at him, "You have a destiny that naturally attracts dark spirits. If you don’t learn some ways to restrain it, you might be possessed again in the future."
