My Wife Is A Ghost Exorciser

Assistant Xu trembled as he glanced at the wind chime that was tinkling with ire, this was not something to be made light of damn it! This wasn't the first or second floor but the tenth floor if he jumped off the window then even Gods wouldn't be able to save him! He instinctively took a few steps back and shoved his fingers in his ears, whatever, as long as he couldn't hear it—— nothing was going to happen!

Song Yan peered at Assistant Xu over her shoulder and sighed, that Song Lan really found a troublesome thing for them to deal with—— once she was sure that Assistant Xu wouldn't create any trouble in the exorcism of this female ghost she took off her space ring from her ring finger and threw it up in the air. The ring was specifically designed for exorcising ghosts with a high level of cultivation, however when it changed into its true form—— the Yang energy it withdrew from the wielder was not a joke. The space ring glowed with a golden hue before twirling in the air a few times and morphing into a scythe. Song Yan caught it and then turned her focus on the female ghost who was still hiding in her shell.

If she wanted to get rid of this female ghost then she would have to take care of her as soon as possible because her Yang energy wasn't sufficient to hold on for long.

Assistant Xu who was watching from the sidelines was completely stupefied—— a small ring, the size of a peanut actually became a scythe-like that of a grim reaper? He took another step back in his stupefaction. That scythe looks like it could reap more than just spirits, you know——what if he was entangled in the fight, then wouldn't he lose this small life of his? It was better to be safer than sorry.

Song Yan didn't know that such thoughts were running in Assistant Yang's head, she was paying all her attention to the wind chime that has started to tinkle madly. She didn't even turn her head to look at Assistant Xu because the female ghost in the white Yqian that was possessing the wind chime had finally made her appearance.

She has lived as a ghost for more than five hundred years and her main source of cultivation has always been ghosts whose cultivation level was lower than hers. Many ghost exorcisers considered it wrong, given they were trying to take the holier than thou route but Song Yan wasn't like that, she wouldn't liberate a soul that was vindictive and vengeful. She would use its Yin essence and boost her cultivation, it was an essential resource to level up and she wasn't going to let it go like that, this was the difference between her and the masters of the Gu family. They would think of a situation first to liberate the poor soul believing that what happened to it was unfortunate and it deserved another chance. Song Yan did not agree with this practice of them, though what happened to a vengeful ghost was indeed wrong but what it did to those countless humans that it possessed and feasted on wasn't right either.

Even if she liberated an evil soul, it was going to burn in hell anyway. So, instead of burning in hell, it might as well burn and rekindle her cultivation level to a new stage.

She was a ghost cultivator, to begin with—— so, there was nothing wrong with what she was going to do, she would reap this ghost's soul and use her cultivation to aide hers.

Assistant Xu stood nervously behind Song Yan and waited for a long time. He thought that with that huge scythe in her hand, the second madam will exorcise the female ghost in seconds but then after waiting for a long time, he noticed that she was just standing there doing nothing. His brows scrunched up and slowly trudged forward until he was standing next to Song Yan, and only then did he notice that Song Yan's lips were moving silently as if she was having a conversation with the female ghost in her own sphere.

" Second madam, why aren't you doing anything? Shouldn't you exorcise the female ghost?" Assistant Xu was feeling quite uneasy with the sudden drop in the temperature, though this room has always felt colder than the other room, currently, it was like standing in an ice cellar.

" Everyone should be given a second chance, Assistant Xu," said Song Yan as she tipped her head towards him and smiled. "If an uninvited guest knocks on your door the least you can do is invite him in and ask for a cup of tea instead of kicking him out, right? Let's be nice and listen to what the female ghost has to say, I am quite curious about what happened to her, aren't you?"

Assistant Xu: "…." No, I am not. In fact, I am waiting for you to kick her out of my house!

However, he was still polite on the surface and asked, " And what does that female ghost have to say for herself?" He had no interest in listening to a ghost's tragic story but now that Second madam has already asked about it. He might as well listen.

" The female ghost was one a court singer, her voice was so melodious that for the sake of listening to her—— princes and officials came from far away. With her beauty and voice, she was able to win the favour of the Emperor, but then she fell in love with a courtesan in the same court as her. The two of them decided to run away and marry however, the Emperor found out about their plans and got his people to capture the courtesan before framing him in a false case and having him executed. Then he forced this female ghost to marry her but when she refused, his ego was bruised and he ordered to kill her as well but——" her lips curled in a fake smile. "But the emperor thought that it was a pity for a melodious voice like hers to die, so he asked his people to gouge out the bones of this female ghost and use those bones to make this wind chime. Quiet a cruel tale don't you think so?"
