" Very well then," said Song Yan, her eyes shining with greed at the thought of all the money she was going to make tonight. She took out the flying talisman from her space ring and then jumped off the balcony with a flip of her hands and landed perfectly on the ground floor with ease. Once she was back on her feet, she wiped off the dust and dirt on her hands and then stood up straight before heading towards the mustang that was parked in the parking lot and knocked on the window of the passenger's side.
Assistant Xu hurriedly opened the door to the passenger's seat and let Song Yan take a seat before he spouted off whatever that happened with him in the apartment room. " Second madam, how can I be haunted by a ghost? The apartment building where I live is newly built and I don't have the habit of collecting antiques either. So, why is that female ghost trying to kill me?"
Just the thought of what would have happened to him if not for the talisman alone was enough to make Xu Ming break out in cold sweat. That female ghost didn't look like she was there for a friendly meeting with him, if not for the talisman, maybe he would have died because of the excruciating pain when she wrenched his bones out of his body.
Song Yan didn't answer at once instead she first looked at Xu Ming's forehead which was even more black after he escaped from the female ghost and frowned, she thought that it was a simple case of a spirit manifestation but it looks like this was something worse than what she initially thought.

Song Yan shook her head as she pointed to his forehead. " There is no point in changing the apartment buildings, the female ghost has latched herself on you by sucking the Yang energy out of your body, even if you change the apartment buildings now, she will just follow you where ever you go. It's similar to a blood-sucking leech sticking to your body, you can't get rid of her without proper measures."
When Xu Ming heard that the female ghost have attached herself to him, he was so scared that his entire body convulsed and he started trembling like a leaf in the middle of a storm. " Then what —— what should I do?"
Song Yan thought for a moment before she took out another safety talisman from her space ring but this time it was Ace level, not an intermediate level. " Here take this and it would be better if you spend the rest of the night inside your car here, like I said that ghost is attached to you then——-"
Xu Ming immediately understood what Song Yan was saying. " You mean to say that she is hiding somewhere here?"
Song Yan smiled and tilted her head towards the windshield. " I won't say that she is exactly hiding herself."
Assistant Xu followed her gaze and instantly jumped so hard that his head hit the roof of his car. The female ghost in Yqian was standing in front of the car, blood dripping out of the holes from where her bones were extracted before she died and her soulless eyes were staring right at Xu Ming. " Sh….She since when she was standing there?"
" From the very beginning," said Song Yan as she calmly stared at the ghost, who sensed the danger in front of her and wisely vanished in thin air. " She was waiting for the talisman to lose its power before she could attack you, but when she sensed me coming here —— she had to come out and check for herself whether she could take me on or not."
Xu Ming clutched both talismans in his hands before turning to Song Yan. " Second madam why didn't you exorcise her when you knew she was hiding in the parking lot?"
Song Yan didn't take his question to heart and simply shrugged as she explained, " Because that female ghost is like a turtle… she has a shell in your house where she hides in the day….if I went out of my way to exorcise her while we haven't taken care of her shell, she could have easily hid herself in her shell. First I need to take hold of her shell and get rid of it, only then can I take care of the female ghosts, without that —— it would be similar to playing whack-a-mole."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXu Ming was even more startled when he found out that there wasn't just a female ghost in his house but also a shell where she hid herself ——- what was this? Was his house a haunted apartment or something? How can there be so many ghostly things hidden there?
Song Yan noticed his pale complexion and decided to be merciful towards him, she patted his shoulder and soothingly said, " But don't worry, the female ghost hasn't sucked all your Yang energy and so she is still in the early stages of her cultivation, at most she can hurt you but not me."
Xu Ming: "….." and that's supposed to comfort me?
seeing that his expression was still sullen she smiled and raised her hands. " Hey, as long as I am alive I can take care of the ghost for you, right? What will you do if something happened to me, right?"
Xu Ming: "….." Alright, whatever you say, madam.
Song Yan slid out of the car and gave assistant Xu one last piece of advice as she closed the door. " Don't get out of the car, she is still here bidding her time ——if you don't want to die a painfully excruciating death."
Then she was gone leaving Xu Ming alone in the parking lot what she didn't tell him that she has drawn a talisman around the apartment building for her family's security, as long as Xu Ming stayed within the range of the array he will be fine.
Xu Ming at first wanted to drive away and look for a hotel room but then his gaze fell on the female ghost that was just as Song Yan said bidding her time to pounce on him hiding in the dark corner of the street and he immediately changed his mind.
' What rest, what sleep? He was totally fine you hear that!'
