But as soon as he finished speaking, Liang's mother released him in shock.

Her eyes were filled with immense fear as she backed away step by step. "No, don't!" she cried. As if summoning some courage, she stepped forward again, desperately pounding on Liang Mancai's back. "Get away from me! Don't touch my son!"

"Mom, what's wrong?" Liang Mancai's hands were cuffed, and he couldn't even hug his mother. He could only reach for his mother in vain.

Tears welled up in Liang's mother's eyes. "Fine, as long as you don't hurt him, I'll do anything!"

Just as everyone was wondering what Liang's mother meant, she slammed her head against the wall without hesitation, instantly bleeding profusely from her head.

Liang Mancai shouted, "Mom!"

Liang's mother fell into a coma and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, while he was restrained and unable to move, and could only watch helplessly.

Liang Mancai absolutely refused to believe that his mother had delusions; someone must be interfering. But who was it that had such extraordinary abilities that even he couldn't sense anything from them?

He looked around frantically, "Who is it!"

The only response was a gentle, cold breeze.

This icy cold?

He suddenly looked towards the doorway; something had just passed by!

Liang Mancai was confined to a detention ward.

Just as he was helplessly venting his resentment, he was horrified to find three figures standing in front of the ward. They looked somewhat familiar: "You?"

Several people simultaneously revealed a strange smile.

"Who is playing tricks here?" Liang Mancai asked sternly.

He wasn't afraid of these wandering ghosts.

"Teacher Liang, have we forgotten so quickly?"

Several people regained their beautiful appearances from when they were alive.

Liang Mancai recognized them, and a huge wave of shock surged through his heart. He took a few steps back in astonishment: "You, how were you able to get up here?"

He clearly used magic to keep them in hell forever.

He wasn't afraid of any so-called retribution, since Lu Xingmin, that unlucky fellow, would take all the blame; everything would fall on his head.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, a cold glint appeared in his eyes: "I warn you not to touch my mother, or I will make you suffer eternal damnation."

The group chuckled dismissively and disappeared in front of the ward.

Although Liang's mother looked terrifying, her injuries were not actually serious, and she woke up after half a day.

He would wake up crying and shouting, constantly yelling to get away, and would take the opportunity to hurt himself. He even showed signs of becoming aggressive towards people.

After evaluation by a psychiatrist, the patient was eventually sent to a mental hospital in the suburbs.

When Liang Mancai found out, he slumped into his chair in despair.

His eyes flashed with malice, and under the cover of night, he secretly cast a spell to separate the soul from the body.

Fortunately, he was prepared. If this body failed, he would simply possess it.

He flew swiftly over the city, searching for a suitable body.

Just as he excitedly discovered that there was someone below who was a good fit for him, someone blocked his way.

He looked up and saw a woman he had vaguely heard of, but didn't recognize.

Jiang Si stood in front of him. "Mr. Liang, where are you in such a hurry?"

"Do you want to possess someone else's body?" Jiang Si said with some regret, "Maybe it's not possible."

Liang Mancai is now a living soul, and his magical power is already diminished. He has even less chance of winning against Jiang Si. He doesn't want to linger in the fight, and when he tries to leave, he finds himself unable to move.

"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."

“Lu Xingmin suffered so much for you, it’s time for you to pay the price.” Jiang Si stepped forward. “Tell me, given what you’ve done, how will you be judged in the underworld?”

Jiang Si didn't intend to ask him for an answer. She rectified all the wrongdoings committed by Liang Mancai and returned him to his original path.

Liang Mancai felt his magical power draining away continuously, and at that moment, lightning and thunder began to flash in the sky.

He was horrified to see a bolt of lightning strike down from the sky, heading straight for him.

He collapsed to the ground before he could even cry out, his soul severely damaged.

Now, he can't even return to his own body, let alone possess another.

Jiang Si squatted down and said slowly, "You can go down now. Your son will come to keep you company soon."

Upon hearing this, Liang Man glared fiercely at Jiang Si and said with difficulty, "What did you do?"

"You're not afraid of retribution for indiscriminately killing living beings?"

Jiang Si scoffed, "You think you're worthy to talk to me about retribution?"

"You didn't calculate this, did you? Your son is destined not to live past eighteen. What's stolen must eventually be returned."

"You!" Liang Mancai was so angry that he almost lost his mind.

The ghost messengers arrived at this time, and Jiang Si kindly brought money for the ghost, saying, "Please take good care of him for me."

Liang Mancai was dragged up like a dead dog.

Jiang Si kindly said, "Don't worry, you and your son will be reunited soon."

"Sigh, what a tragic death," Jiang Si shook her head. "But I wonder if dying far from home and having one's soul return to the underworld is any of our business?"

“Your mother is like this again.” Jiang Si sighed. “It’s so pitiful that your old mother is still in the mental hospital when she received the news that her son and grandson had died tragically at the same time.”

Liang Mancai mustered all his strength to lunge at Jiang Si, shouting, "I'm going to kill you!"

When the news of Liang Mancai's sudden death from a heart attack in the detention center reached Old Mrs. Lu's ears, she was plunged into a great panic, as if she had suddenly lost her support.

It feels like everything is over.

Ruan Qiao was just a woman and didn't really understand what the old lady was doing.

Seeing the old lady like this, he quickly stepped forward and handed her a glass of water, saying, "Mom, have some water first."

Seeing the water being offered to her lips, Old Mrs. Lu suddenly felt a surge of malice and pushed the water away, spilling the glass and soaking the carpet.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Ruan Qiao stood to the side, still shaken.

"It's all your fault, you jinx! I never agreed to Xingmin marrying you in the first place, and look what you've done, giving birth to that bastard Jiang Si!"

Upon hearing this, Ruan Qiao, unusually, did not step forward to comfort the old lady.

She said calmly, "Mom, it was you who abandoned Fan'er back then. If she were still alive, perhaps the Lu family wouldn't be in this situation now."

Do you know how people outside the family perceive her?

"She is known as Master Jiang by others. So many people want to ask her for guidance. The Lu family could have risen to a higher level, but it was you, Mom, who ruined everything."

These words undoubtedly struck a nerve with Old Mrs. Lu.

"You've gone too far, haven't you?" Old Lu raised his hand as if to strike.

Ruan Qiao dodged, and Old Lady Lu's hand missed its mark. She was so angry that her nostrils twitched incessantly.

"You!" The old lady was so angry that she gasped for breath, clutching her chest.

The servants below were so frightened they could barely breathe.

Ruan Qiao knew that the old lady was in good health, so she said to the servant, "Go and pour another cup of tea."

"Yes, madam."

"Mom, why are you angry? Getting angry is bad for your health." Ruan Qiao forcefully pressed the old lady back onto the sofa and said slowly, "In this family, Xingmin is gone, Second Uncle has also separated from the family, and Bi'er and Huai'an are both eager to run away. Now it's just you and me left."
