Su Mingyue suddenly screamed, took a few steps back, and turned to run away.

Luo Xiaoniang, who was beside her, was startled because Su Mingyue had involuntarily hit her.

My first reaction was, "Oh my god, my premonition was absolutely right! How could I have run into something so unlucky!"

People who do bad things often have a certain degree of guilt. People may not be afraid, but they are afraid of things that cannot be touched!

For example, ghosts at night!

In particular, those ghosts were killed by them!

There's no need to ask further; they've come to settle scores with them!

Therefore, Luo Xiaoniang didn't dare to look. When she heard Su Mingyue shout that there was a ghost, she was terrified and tried to run away as well.

No time to worry about anything else; in their panic, they ran as far as they could, as long as they couldn't see them anymore.

The people protecting them were also stunned by this sudden action. They had killed countless people, but they were strong-willed and not afraid of ghosts, because the evil aura and malevolence on their bodies were enough to keep ghosts away.

The two reacted very quickly and immediately took action, which was their normal reaction, but they didn't notice anything!

There was no one there, not even a ghost!

They were holding torches, which illuminated the surrounding area. Although it wasn't particularly bright, nothing could escape their eyes!

However, after several sweeps, they still found nothing, only some fog in the distance.

The two of them thought they might have misread it, so they didn't take it to heart.

In the wild, the fog at night, illuminated by firelight, might look a bit eerie, but this is a normal phenomenon.

Fog at night, isn't that a normal thing?

There's nothing to be surprised about!

If anyone is to blame, it's only that this mother and daughter are ignorant, living in a greenhouse, and have never seen much of the world. They're just making a fuss over nothing!

Of course, he must have done something wrong, otherwise he wouldn't have thought so much just from seeing a little smoke!

They've done so many bad things, yet they've never actually seen a ghost. Do they really think it's that easy to see one?

Ultimately, it's all just self-inflicted fear!

It's not true. I see things and start thinking wildly, making things that don't even exist into my own mind!

"It's true! It's a ghost! That person is dead! She just appeared in front of me and gave me a strange smile! I'm not lying to you! I really have no reason to lie!"

Seeing that no one believed her, Su Mingyue became anxious. She clearly saw it!

She knew that person all too well; he was the one she wanted to kill, the one she wished was dead!

How could she be mistaken? Impossible!

She knew exactly what that person looked like!

The important thing is that it changes its face every now and then!

One moment it's a stunningly beautiful face, the next it's a bloody and swollen face!

That's terrifying!

If someone can change their expression instantly, they're definitely not human!

Not human!

It's a ghost!

No matter which face it was, she remembered it very clearly; it was the same person's face!

She could never forget that swollen face, because it was her most satisfying masterpiece!

She couldn't stand that stunningly beautiful face; she hated it so much and had long wanted to destroy it!

She was overjoyed when it finally came true, and that dazzling face was no longer in front of her!

But why has it suddenly reappeared now?

That person was clearly dead; she had sent many people to confirm it. Even if he wasn't dead, he couldn't possibly be alive and well!

It's impossible for me to stand in front of her like this now!

Didn't my godfather say that everything would be foolproof?

It shouldn't be wrong!

My godfather never leaves any loose ends; he always does things thoroughly, leaving no room for anyone to find fault. He even sent someone to verify it later!

But she was uneasy and secretly sent people to investigate, but the results were always the same: there was no chance of survival!

What just appeared must be that person's ghost!

"Don't be afraid! If it's a ghost, that's the least of our worries! Humans and ghosts are on different paths, we have plenty of ways to deal with her!"

Seeing how frightened Su Mingyue was, Luo Xiaoniang instantly realized who Su Mingyue might have seen.

However, Luo Xiaoniang wasn't afraid, because she had already made preparations. She would hire a skilled master later, and everything could be resolved!

Besides, they have people protecting them now, so there's nothing to be afraid of!

However, despite her words of comfort to Su Mingyue, she herself was still somewhat afraid!

A mother's strength is unwavering, and this applies equally to Luo Xiaoniang. She cannot be afraid!

At least in front of Su Mingyue, one cannot show the slightest fear.

Su Mingyue didn't feel comforted at all. "You didn't see that person's face! It was terrifying!"

From now on, every time she closes her eyes, that face will probably be all she can think about!

How could Luo Xiaoniang not know the face Su Mingyue was talking about? She had witnessed it with her own eyes, and she was overjoyed to see that beautiful face ruined!

"I want to go back! I want to go back! I don't want to wander around here anymore!"

Su Mingyue wouldn't listen to anything anymore; she wanted to go back to the manor and didn't want to stay in this desolate place any longer.

She had heard that ghosts usually exist in the wild where there are few people, and that's why they can't exist in places with many people!

Besides, she used to have a lot of nightmares and brought back a lot of exorcism items to her room. She felt that as long as she returned to her room, she would be safe!

So, ignoring everyone else, he took off running back, faster and faster!

She dared not stop, for if she did, she might see something she didn't want to see.

Let's press on and try to teleport back in one go!

Unfortunately, she wasn't a deity and didn't have magic powers, so she couldn't do it that quickly.

Seeing this, Luo Xiaoniang had no choice but to run after her.

The people protecting them also ran along. Because they knew martial arts, it was effortless for them, and they ran quite fast, managing to stay close to them.

The mother and daughter returned to the Marquis of Anping's residence, still shaken. They had no energy left to pay attention to their surroundings. As soon as they got back to their courtyard, they closed the door, grabbed a bunch of magical artifacts, and crawled into bed.

It shook so hard it was like a leaf.

"What are you afraid of? Come out! Let's chat for a while!"

Holding the so-called talisman against evil spirits, Su Mingyue prayed incessantly, hoping the night would pass quickly, but suddenly a faint sound came from outside the covers!

She froze, her eyes snapped open in terror, and she dared not even tremble.

That voice sounds familiar!

ah!

Didn't she run back?

Wasn't she holding a bunch of treasures in her arms?

Why was that thing able to come back with me?

It must be a hallucination!

She won't listen, she won't listen, it's fake, it's fake!

She must have been too scared and made it up; it's not real!

"Why don't you come out and see for yourself if it's true? We haven't seen each other in so long, don't you miss me? Didn't you say I was your best friend? Are you afraid of me?"
