Everyone held their breath and instinctively looked in the direction of the sound.
Suddenly, mist rose in the forest, and a red figure quickly floated over from within the mist.
It was truly floating; its feet didn't touch the ground, its body didn't rise or fall at all, only its long, ankle-length black hair danced wildly in all directions.
The woman's wedding dress looked as if it were stained with blood. Her eye sockets, devoid of eyeballs, stared at the crowd. Half of her face was rotten, while the other half was stunningly beautiful.
Seeing everyone stunned, she grinned, her red lips parted wide, and she accidentally dropped her head.
Everyone: "..."
Qi An calmly caught the falling head, cradling it with a pair of skeletal claws and placing it on the neck.
"Huh, where did he go?" Qi An muttered.
Fu Gui reminded her, "Sister An'an, it's backwards, the direction is wrong."
"oh."
Qi An calmly held his head and rotated it 180 degrees.
"I'm sorry, I've only been a ghost for a few days, and I'm not very skilled yet. Please excuse my poor performance."
"A ghost! Aaaaaaaaahh ...
The person whose mouth had finally connected with their brain let out a pig-like scream, and the mediocre ghost hunters who came to catch the ghost scrambled away.
The compass, peach wood sword, and other essential tools fell to the ground, and the one carrying the dog blood splashed himself all over, running away covered in bright red blood.
To my shame, they were swindlers and cheaters who made a living by catching ghosts.
In reality, they don't believe in ghosts at all; they think it's a matter of belief – if you believe, it exists; if you don't, it doesn't.
As the saying goes, if you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear.
Those who seek out ghost hunters must have done something wrong and have something to hide.
They just need to go along with what the employer says, then casually strike a pose, usually performing a ritual, wielding a sword, and splashing some dog blood.
It's primarily about providing psychological comfort.
Who the hell knew that one day I would actually see a real ghost?
She's a female ghost dressed in a red wedding gown; even a fool could see how ferocious she is. The Sun family will definitely be wiped out.
They just want to earn some money to make a living; they don't want to risk their lives.
"Sister An'an, should we bring them back?"
"No need, I've seen it. They may have cheated and swindled, but they haven't killed anyone. They're not the same kind of trash who suggested burying Liang Huanyu alive. Their crimes don't warrant death."
Qi An looked at Sun's parents, who were trapped in place and unable to move.
These two old bastards are the real culprits behind all this tragedy.
Qi An said, "I haven't even come looking for you yet, but you've delivered yourselves to my door."
Having witnessed Liang Huanyu transform into a vengeful ghost and appear before them, Sun's parents were terrified.
Sun's father, abandoning his previous stubbornness, pleaded, "Huanyu, I was just confused for a moment. I'm sorry, but I've already been punished. My two sons are dead, so please rest in peace."
In the face of death, Sun's mother was actually a little tougher than Sun's father. She cried out, "We are the ones who have wronged you. If you want revenge, come at us. Why did you kill my two sons?"
Fu Gui commented, "This mother is slightly better than the father."
Sun's father scolded, "Shut up! If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."
Sun's father flattered, "Huanyu, if you're still not satisfied, then kill this poisonous woman. She conspired with that sorcerer to harm you. I was also deceived."
He was also very sad when Yaozu died, but as long as he was alive, he could find a way to have another son, and he could have as many women as he wanted.
Sun's mother looked at the man she had devoted her entire life to in disbelief: "You, you actually..."
Qi An interrupted their bickering: "Stop! Did I say I was going to spare anyone? They're both going to die, why are you being so accommodating?"
"Stop talking like that! Your father and I are best brothers. Please, please, let him go."
A flash of red light, and Sun's father covered his mouth and howled, a piece of his tongue falling to the ground.
"Whose father are you? You dare to call yourself that? Do you really think I don't know how my parents died?"
Sun's father stared wide-eyed in horror. Qi An continued, "Look, retribution has come. Your wealth, your son, everything you painstakingly acquired will all vanish."
Sun's father roared madly. Qi An reached out, and his white bone claw tore open his chest, tearing out his heart.
"Ahhh..."
Sun's mother was splattered with blood and witnessed a vengeful ghost tearing out her heart; the scene was absolutely terrifying.
"Stop shouting, do you want to see your precious son?"
The screams stopped abruptly. Thinking she had misheard, Sun's mother cried out excitedly, "Yaozu, is my Yaozu still alive? Where is he?"
Qi An waved his hand, and Sun's mother's eyes flashed, her gaze passing through the earth to see Sun Yaozu and Gao Xuan buried underground.
Her youngest son, reduced to a mere torso, was imprisoned in the darkness underground, neither human nor ghost, subjected to endless torment, where even death was a luxury.
Just moments before, Sun's mother had held onto hope, but now she desperately wished that her son was truly dead. He was suffering so much; death would be a blessing.
Sun's mother broke down: "Kill Yaozu! Do whatever you want to me! We've wronged you, we deserve it! Just give him a quick death! I'll do it for him, please!"
Qi An watched her breakdown and then smiled with pleasure: "I won't. Your precious son should enjoy such a good thing as being buried alive."
"Of course, the same goes for you."
Qi An threw Sun's parents into the coffin she had prepared, closed the lid, and affixed talismans.
Then, Qi An sank the coffin into the ground, covered it with soil, and the vegetation grew instantly, making it impossible to tell that it had just been dug up.
Fu Gui said, "After this is over, let's give them a taste of their own medicine and bury them alive so they can never be reincarnated. They've already planned their deaths in advance. How thoughtful of them."
Qi An turned around, the terrifying illusion faded, and Liang Huanyu's original appearance was restored. She also burned the unlucky red wedding dress.
The Sun family, the richest family in Anping County, was wiped out overnight, even worse off than the Liang family before them.
Later, a fire broke out for no apparent reason, and the Sun residence was completely destroyed in the fire, leaving nothing behind.
Thanks to the propaganda of the escaped servants and the exorcists, the disgusting things the Sun family had done became known to everyone.
"So the Liang family wasn't wiped out by bandits, it was the Sun family. What a pity for such kind-hearted people as the Liang couple, and Miss Liang too, sigh..."
"Shh, I heard that Miss Liang was buried alive, and her resentment was so strong that she turned into a vengeful ghost, which is why she took the lives of the entire Sun family."
"They deserve it. I haven't done anything wrong, so I'm not afraid."
"That's true, people are much scarier than ghosts."
Qi An helped Liang Huanyu look for her two older brothers, only to find that they had already died on the battlefield.
In fact, this outcome was within Qi An's expectations; in such chaotic times, too many people could not return.
The Sun family members, buried underground, face an indefinite period of imprisonment and torture of their souls.
Unable to live, unable to die.
