Xu Qianniang remained silent upon hearing this, but she was seething inside, because she knew that no matter what choice she made, it would ultimately be disadvantageous to her.

"First, obediently go outside and wait for the results of the arrest by the authorities. Once they find the person who truly harmed you, I can turn a blind eye to whatever you want to do with him, as long as you don't kill innocent people indiscriminately. When you want to be reincarnated, I will help you pass on to the afterlife."

Jiang Xianya paused slightly as she spoke: "Second, if you keep causing trouble, I'll beat you to a pulp, so that you'll never be reincarnated."

After hearing Jiang Xianya's words, Xu Qianniang clenched her fists tightly. Perhaps because all the power she had gained earlier had dissipated, she had calmed down and was no longer as impulsive as before.

"Ye Qingze, remember this: even if you didn't kill me, I still died because of you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in this state today," Xu Qianniang said sternly.

She was just unlucky to have met Jiang Xianya.

If it were someone else in the Ye family today, even the abbot of that Taoist temple outside the county town, they might not be a match for Xu Qianniang.

Someone used a vicious method to turn Xu Qianniang into a female ghost, and then fed her with her spirit, causing her power to surge instantly. In this dark night filled with yin energy, Xu Qianniang's strength should not be underestimated.

“If you hadn’t been bothering Ye Qingze, would you have been used by someone? Would you have died? You’re brainless, who can you blame? If you dare to say another word, I’ll beat you to a pulp right now,” Jiang Xianya said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Xu Qianniang snorted coldly and drifted away.

Jiang Xianya breathed a sigh of relief after she disappeared from the public eye.

Despite her impressive performance just now, defeating Xu Qianniang with a single blow, she actually won very hard.

Even with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth as a guide, her body could not withstand the repeated bursts of soul power.

Jiang Xianya raised her hand, revealing several more wounds on it.

If she hadn't desperately suppressed it and prevented the wound from reopening so quickly, Xu Qianniang would definitely have discovered it.

At that point, they will definitely continue to fight her to the death and will not back down.

“Miss Jiang, you…” Qi Chengshuo saw the wound on the back of Jiang Xianya’s hand and smelled a faint smell of blood.

As a martial artist, although he was not as skilled as those who practiced mystical arts, he was still very perceptive.

"It's nothing." Jiang Xianya raised her hand, looked at it, and shook her head nonchalantly.

In her past life, she was a cultivation fanatic, and getting injured was commonplace for her, so this injury was nothing to her.

Qi Chengshuo was about to say something when he saw Jiang Xianya quickly step forward and push the door open to go inside.

"Xianya, come quickly and take a look. Just now, after Xu Qianniang called Qingze, he suddenly stood still and wouldn't move. No matter what we said or did, he didn't react at all." Ye Xianwen was very worried about his son and said hurriedly when he saw Jiang Xianya come in.

“His soul has left his body.” After Jiang Xianya finished speaking, she formed a hand seal and quickly placed it on Ye Qingze’s forehead. A moment later, Ye Qingze’s soul, which had been wandering at the door, was suddenly pulled back into his body.

Ye Qingze, who had been staring blankly ahead, suddenly moved.

"Qingze, how are you?" Zhou asked hurriedly.

"Mother, I'm alright now." Although Ye Qingze's face was very pale, he looked much better than before.

Ye Qingze was genuinely frightened.

Xu Qianniang had barely uttered a sound when he felt his body float up. When he turned around, he realized there was another version of himself in the room.

Ye Qingze, being a literate person, quickly realized that his soul had left his body and was drifting outwards uncontrollably.

If it weren't for Jiang Xianya, even if Xu Qianniang left, his soul would not have been able to return to his body.

"Thank you, cousin!" Ye Qingze turned around and bowed to Jiang Xianya.

“That’s right, we should thank Xianya properly. If it weren’t for Xianya, we would all be in trouble today,” Zhou said hurriedly.

“We’re all family, Auntie, please don’t stand on ceremony. It’s getting late, everyone should go back to your rooms and rest,” Jiang Xianya said with a smile.

No one moved upon hearing this.

They were terrified by what happened and are too scared to go back now.

"Go back and rest. I'll make some more arrangements later. I'll be aware of any disturbances and I'll make sure you're not taken away by the female ghost," Jiang Xianya said with a smile.

Everyone continued to shake their heads after hearing this.

“Xianya, none of us want to go back. Just let us stay in this hall for the night. Anyway, we haven’t talked together in a long time, so let’s have some fun together,” Ye Xianzhang said with a smile.

Jiang Xianya was about to say something when she heard this, but then she saw Ye Miaoyun winking at her.

She understood what Ye Miaoyun meant.

This tells her that she no longer needs to persuade everyone.

“Okay.” Jiang Xianya nodded and took Ye Miaoyun’s hand. “Mother, let’s go back and rest. I’m a little sleepy.”

She used her soul power to perform secret techniques twice today, which has overexerted her. She needs to go back and meditate to recover.

"Xianya, will that female ghost come back?" Zhou couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry, there are talismans posted at the door. I'll be able to tell when she comes back," Jiang Xianya reassured everyone.

Hearing her say that reassured everyone a lot.

After returning to the room, Jiang Xianya quickly raised her hand.

"You're injured again!" Ye Miaoyun's heart skipped a beat when she saw the several new cuts on the back of her hand, and she quickly went to get some wound medicine.

"Xianya, this can't go on." After applying medicine to Jiang Xianya, Ye Miaoyun's face was full of worry. "You said before that you were injured because of overexertion. Is there any way to fix it?"

"To improve my physique." Jiang Xianya said with a smile, "Mother, don't worry, I'll go to the county town again tomorrow and visit those two pharmacies to see if I can buy the medicinal herbs I need."

She wanted to use the secret formula for tempering the bones and muscles of the Taiyi Sect's introductory disciples to cleanse her marrow and strengthen her body. Only by increasing her strength could she protect herself and her family.

Jiang Xianya had only been back in her room for a short while when the officials arrived.

Magistrate Huang, along with his constables and Taoist priests, went to the location she had predicted and captured the evil cultivator. He was imprisoned in the county government office, where the Taoist priests would guard him tonight. After the interrogation tomorrow, they would report to the prefectural government and request that they send someone to deal with the evil cultivator.

Magistrate Huang requested that the Ye family members go to the county government office tomorrow, especially Jiang Xianya and Ye Qingze, who absolutely had to go.

"Mother, let's rest first, and go to the county government early tomorrow morning." Jiang Xianya had long expected that Magistrate Huang and his men would be able to bring the man back.

Because when she left the county government office, she cast a divination for them, and the divination indicated that their trip would be relatively smooth.

If the calculations show it to be very dangerous, Jiang Xianya will definitely go to help.

In her previous life, she was the leader of the Taiyi Sect, the most respected person among all cultivators in the world, and she had a strong sense of justice. Even after being reborn, some things in her bones have not changed.
