Chapter 97 Debt Collection



When Qing Huai appeared in front of the Chu family with Bai Ningning, he still felt that he was in a state of bewitching.

He couldn't explain why he came here, and even forgot the whole process. When he came to his senses, he was already in the Chu family's villa.

Qing Huai and Chu Ze stared at each other.

Ghosts don't need to blink, but humans do.

In order not to lose the upper hand, Chu Ze's eyes turned red.

It's a bit unreasonable to compete with a ghost without blinking.

Chu Ze stared at Bai Ningning with sore eyes: "You said you couldn't let me go out, I thought something dangerous was going to happen."

Bai Ningning handed him a bottle of eye drops and a steam eye mask, and said with a smile, "It's indeed a bit dangerous. I originally opened the door to the underworld with the mentality of dying together if it doesn't work."

Chu Ze: “……?”

Bai Ningning: "But I also feel that if I don't say some things, I will regret it to death."

[With the mentality of dying if the confession fails (?)]

Love Saves the World (Conviction)

[Wait, this isn't a confession, it feels like she's trying to persuade Qing Huai to die together with him if she fails.]

[Dying together is also a happy ending (going crazy, please don’t disturb me)]

[We can live and die together! ]

[Previously, dying with Qing Huai meant living and dying together. What about dying with Uncle Yun?]

[If it were Uncle Yun, he would just be dead]

Chu Ze was sure that she was hiding something from him, so he asked, "But how do you know that Yun Youshun has a problem?"

Because she began to doubt the barrage.

But the matter of the barrage must not be known to others.

Most of the time, the general direction of the barrage is correct, but what if the barrage is also misleading?

In fact, she began to suspect Yun Youshun since he was in a coma for a long time.

If Yun Youshun was just frightened, he should have woken up long ago, but he didn't wake up until the doctor left.

She suspected that he was pretending to be unconscious, so she asked the other members of the Chu family to move out overnight.

Sure enough, someone started hanging around outside the villa that night.

At this point, she was still not sure whether it was someone from Yun Youshun's faction, but she just became more suspicious of Yun Youshun.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted in your heart, trust will crumble, and details that seemed natural in the past will become clues, leading you to the expected outcome.

That night, Bai Ningning sat alone in the villa. She couldn't understand why Yun Youshun had acted so indifferent to Yun Xian before and wanted to send his own son to the Ghost Alliance, but when she confronted Qing Huai, he forced her to bow to Qing Huai.

It can be understood as the touching love between father and son.

But if Yun Youshun deliberately instigated discord, it could also be explained.

Even so, Bai Ningning still couldn't sentence him to death, so she went to visit the Yun family father and son immediately after they woke up.

But Yun Youshun was playing the victim.

And he didn't let Yun Xian speak.

It was obvious that Yun Xian had something to say, but was stopped by Yun Youshun. At the same time, Yun Youshun once again pointed the finger at the Ghost Alliance.

It can also be understood that the father is worried that his son will take risks again and wants to stop him from engaging in any dangerous behavior.

It's natural and seamless.

Yun Youshun was exposed in only one place.

He didn't expect that Bai Ningning had also been pinched by Qing Huai and knew what color and state the ghost handprint should be.

Of course, these cannot be told to Chu Ze.

There were so many thoughts in his mind, but it actually only took Chu Ze a drop of eye drops.

Bai Ningning naturally shifted the blame: "Qing Huai said so."

Qing Huai glanced at her but didn't expose her.

I couldn’t bear to read the barrage anymore, and the screen was full of question marks for Qinghuai.

Bai Ningning made up a reasonable story: "It's like this. He and I had colluded long ago and staged a play. He went to the Ghost Alliance to gather intelligence. This is the conclusion we came to after integrating the intelligence."

At first, the barrage was full of question marks, and then gradually some people were fooled by her and even started to set the pace.

[Maybe it really has been going on since the beginning, but they just didn’t tell us]

[I said Ningning had a plan in advance. She never fights a battle without preparation.]

What do you think Ning Dao is?

Bai Ningning: “…”

Sure enough, barrage doesn’t know everything.

I originally just wanted to fool Chu Ze, but I didn't expect to fool the barrage as well.

Chu Ze wanted to ask more, but Bai Ningning took off the steam eye mask for him and said, "Give your eyes a rest. They're already fragile, don't let them get any aftereffects later."

"Not at all." Chu Ze complained, but still put on the blindfold obediently.

Bai Ningning stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes. After making sure he couldn't see her, she said, "I'll go find my second brother."

As she spoke, she pulled Qinghuai with her and left through the gate of the underworld.

Chu Ze noticed something, but didn't expose her.

I took a light sleep in the soothing warmth and fragrance of the steam eye mask.

When he took off his blindfold, there was a black jade pendant on the table, with a note underneath.

"I still have some unfinished business. If there's any unusual activity later, you can use this to command the Goblin Alliance."

rather"

Chu Ze picked up the jade pendant and looked at it for a while, and noticed that there was still some ghost energy left on it.

The ghost aura has not dissipated yet.

When Chu Yuyan arrived, he saw him staring at a jade pendant wrapped in ghostly energy and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Chu Ze handed him the note, his eyes still fixed on the jade pendant: "This jade pendant seems to be full of ghost energy."

Chu Yuyan looked at the words on the note, his eyebrows almost knitted together: "This looks like instructions for funeral arrangements."

Chu Ze didn't take it seriously and said, "It's normal. They all try their best to be the King of Hell. Don't worry, you won't die. Even if you encounter danger, the Four Seasons Chart can save your life. Don't tell her about this. Wait until she has used up her chance before emphasizing the seriousness of the matter."

Chu Yuyan was stunned, thinking that there must be some past events that Chu Ze didn't want to mention, so he didn't dare to ask more.

After leaving the Chu family, Qing Huai raised his eyebrows and asked, "So I'm taking the blame for you?"

"How could that be?" Bai Ningning smiled at him, "This is a very important step. Next, I'll go find someone to collect the debt for you."

The first family to have their door knocked was the Wei family.

The last meeting made Bai Ningning realize that there were many argumentative people in this place and she couldn't waste any time talking to them.

Bai Ningning randomly grabbed a member of the Wei family and said straight to the point: "Find your family head and tell him that the creditor is here."

When the other party saw that Qinghuai was full of ghostly aura, the kind that he could not beat at all, he was so scared that he ran away without looking back.

Bai Ningning wasn't sure if he heard it clearly, so she decided to go in and catch another person who reported the incident.

But the Wei family members seemed to be easily frightened and almost ran away when they saw Qinghuai.

Bai Ningning looked back and saw that Qinghuai didn't look scary at all. He was just his usual self, and quite good-looking.

[Stop laughing, the Wei family is almost all gone]

[Hurry up, they are running away so fast QAQ]

Bai Ningning smiled faintly. How could they just run away as they said?

She called out to Qing Huai: "You should be able to sense which ones are from the Wei family, right? It's time to collect the debt."

Qinghuai stared at her and didn't move for the time being.

Bai Ningning shook the medicine bottle in her hand and said, "Catch them first, gather them together, and divide them 50-50. You can take back the spiritual power of the older ones, and the younger ones can work in the underworld. Is that reasonable?"

"good."

When Qinghuai saw that she brought the medicine, he turned into a black wind and spread out in all directions.

After a while, the entire Wei family was caught together.

There are no particularly old people in their family, and the oldest is only about sixty years old.

Bai Ningning roughly divided them into two groups: "Those under 30 stand on my left, and those 30 and above stand on my right."

Qing Huai only captured those who had his spiritual energy on them, and did not harm the "innocent" people - such as their families and other disciples.

There were a total of seventeen people captured from the Wei family. They were all tied up tightly by ghost energy, unable to move or speak, and could only stare at Bai Ningning.

Bai Ningning: "Did you understand what I just said? If you did, blink."

The Wei family blinked frantically, and Bai Ningning continued, "Those over thirty will have their spiritual powers taken away. Don't worry, your lives will not be endangered. Those under thirty will sign a contract with me in a while and work for the underworld to pay off their debts. If you have no objection, you can close your eyes now."

A few of them accepted their fate and closed their eyes in a Buddhist manner, while others stared at Bai Ningning with wide eyes, as if they didn't understand why she did this.

Bai Ningning disdained to explain and said directly: "If you have any objections, please stand to the right. You can ask your elders why you owe this debt."

Most people closed their eyes, only a few people still kept their eyes open stubbornly, all of them were in their thirties or forties.

Bai Ningning ignored them and asked Qing Huai to move them to the right, then let go of the others and let them line up.

Almost as soon as the ghost energy dissipated, someone immediately shouted, "Why should the spiritual energy of people over thirty be taken away? Can't I volunteer to work for the underworld?"

Some people scolded her: "How could the people of the underworld be colluding with ghosts?"

Bai Ningning replied slowly and methodically, "Young ones, the older ones all take shortcuts by using the Soul Transformation Array, neglecting their own cultivation and being lazy. Don't you know that the underworld is full of ghosts except for the King of Hell?"

The other party still refused to give up: "Is it your turn to take the lead in something that the seven major families have discussed?"

Bai Ningning's eyes glared. "Have you discussed this before? Have you asked the people who were sent in to sacrifice themselves?"

A small number of children who were kept in the dark also knew what was going on when they heard the term "Soul Transformation Array"; as for those who knew the truth, each of them was like an eggplant hit by frost, completely wilted and lost hope.

It is painful to realize that you are an ordinary person, but at least you are walking on flat ground.

These people used the Soul-Transforming Formation to deceive all living beings, and in the process of deceiving, they also deceived themselves and really thought they were geniuses.

Once they were brought back to their original state, all the debts accumulated in previous years were repaid in one go, including principal and interest.

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

For them, the psychological torture and pain are far greater than the physical ones.

Bai Ningning handed the medicine bottle to Qing Huai: "One pill per person, please be careful with your dosage."

Qing Huai responded with a faint smile.

He was not interested in these people's lives, he just wanted them to feel the pain of having their spiritual power deprived.

Bai Ningning handed a knife to the young people queuing on the left and asked them to cut their fingers one by one and press their fingerprints on the Four Seasons Chronicle.

Bai Ningning glanced at him and asked, "Qinghuai has been in the Soul Transformation Array for over a thousand years. If we cut off the odds and divide it in half, we'll give you five hundred years. Will your generation shoulder the responsibility, or will you work for the underworld for generations, repaying the debt like Yugong moving mountains?"

The elders' faces darkened, but they were all bound by Qing Huai's ghost energy and could not speak at all.

A girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old, spoke in a clear and firm voice, "We will take responsibility."

Bai Ningning smiled faintly: "Can you make the decision?"

"able."

After she replied to Bai Ningning with a solemn oath, she looked at her brothers and sisters and said, "If you do something wrong, someone has to take responsibility. This generation is enough."

The others all had heavy expressions and no one responded, but they tacitly agreed with what she said.

As Bai Ningning wished, she signed the first batch of long-term workers in the underworld.

After dealing with the first house, I just knock on the doors of the rest one by one.

After leaving the Wei family, Qing Huai finally spoke: "They should return my spiritual power to me, but why should I give half of my people to work for you in the underworld for free?"

Bai Ningning said slowly and drawn out her tone: "Don't think too much about some things."

Qing Huai: "You even gave me a discount without my permission."

Bai Ningning: "Small profits but quick turnover."

Qing Huai: “?”
