Chapter 48: Mysteriously
Suddenly, Yun Qin felt all the evil energy in her body was sucked out, and two scrolls appeared in front of her.
The first one said “Good Calculation”.
The second one said “Insight”.
“Consider this as your reward for bringing back all this evil energy. Choose one.”
Yun Qin was a little stunned.
Her mind reasoned that choosing “Good Calculation” would not only complement the mana in her body but also help her improve her cultivation.
However, she was silent for a long time, and then her finger unexpectedly pointed towards “Insight”.
Scenes from her previous life were playing in her mind.
In her previous life, if she had some insights into people’s hearts and affairs of the world, would she have been able to avoid such a tragic ending?
If she had known earlier, she would have chosen to be a normal person rather than an evil spirit who was stuck in hell for 30 years.
Additionally, she wanted to see what was in Song Yin’s heart.
Song Yin was a person that she was both unfamiliar with and familiar with. She only knew that Song Yin would take responsibility for her and her child, but she was not sure if Song Yin would truly open his heart to her.
Could she really touch and fantasize about such a man whose name alone was enough to scare people in the capital?
While Yun Qin was thinking, the scroll with the word “Insight” in front of her turned into a beam of light and drilled into Yun Qin’s forehead.
Yun Qin felt that the reward this time was extraordinary. The second before her body and consciousness was to be separated, Yun Qin resisted the dizziness and asked loudly, “Lord Hades, when will you summon me again?”
As a half-human and half-ghost walking the world, she had no sense of security and desperately wanted to become stronger.
However, Hades did not reply. When she woke up, Yun Qin’s question still echoed in the small courtyard.
The courtyard no longer had the exquisite appearance it had during the day.
Under the soul-capturing array, everything in the small courtyard had the same appearance it had many years ago. However, once this suppressive force disappeared, the surroundings once again fell under the Laws of Heaven. The evil energy that surged out of the broken array disintegrated all the scenery, vegetation, and houses into dust.
When Yun Qin looked around again, she saw that all the ghosts already fled, leaving a mess on the ground.
“Sigh.”
Yun Qin sighed. Although it was troublesome to catch all these ghosts later, it was good that she broke the death curse on the Song family and saved Song Yin.
She raised her hand and looked at the red line in her palm. It showed that she only had seven days left to live.
With so little evil energy in her body, it was hard to say if she could live until Song Yin returned.
Yun Qin felt great pressure as she stroked her flat stomach.
After she absorbed the remaining evil energy in the small courtyard, Yun Qin stood up and walked out.
After crossing many broken walls and ruins, Yun Qin saw warm yellow lights in front of her.
Yun Qin felt like she survived an apocalypse when she saw such light after being in darkness.
She had been too impulsive. If anything went wrong, she and her child would have died on the spot.
However, before she could walk into the light, she heard someone shout in pleasant surprise, “Miss Yun came out! Miss Yun came out!”
Then, more voices spread out, “Old Master! Miss Yun came out!”
Yun Qin did not know what was going on. When she got closer, servants swarmed around her, serving her hot tea. When she put on her cloak, she saw Old Master Song walking out of the room.
“Grandpa Song.”
Grandpa Song’s expression was very grave and he did not speak for a moment.
Looking at the young girl in front of him who was drenched and exhausted, Grandpa Song felt uncomfortable.
Yun Qin saw that the blood-red aura that lingered between Grandpa Song’s brows became much dimmer.
“Young lady, this curse is really…”
Under Yun Qin’s gaze, Old Master Song spoke slowly, as if he wanted Yun Qin’s confirmation.
In reality, as a member of the Song family, how could he not feel that the curse was removed?
He wanted confirmation simply because he didn’t dare believe that a young girl like Yun Qin broke the soul-capturing array that tortured the Song family for so many years.
“Yes, it’s removed. However, my powers are drained. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to remove the life-for-life array for you tonight. I’ll have to come again next time.”
Old Master Song nodded. However, as if he suddenly returned to his senses, he cupped his fists towards Yun Qin and said sincerely, “Miss Yun, you saved the Song family. If you have any requests in the future, the Song family will do our best to satisfy them.”
Receiving such a promise from the top aristocratic family in the capital pretty much meant that Yun Qin could do whatever she wanted.
At this moment, some of Old Master Song’s thoughts appeared in Yun Qin’s mind. This must be the “Insight” ability.
Was it really as Yun Qin had hoped? Could she see into people’s hearts?
On the other hand, Old Master Song’s thoughts were: such a capable girl, with such abilities at such a young age, if she could marry into the Song family…
