Upon hearing this, Sun Yushan was furious.
"You dare lie to me?!"
Even though he was exposed, Hui Xian wasn't angry. He could sense that the punch the child had thrown at him earlier hadn't actually been very powerful, meaning that the other person was incredibly strong, at least a fraction stronger than the deity who had previously guided him.
With his life in someone else's hands, he stopped struggling.
“I told you from the beginning that you were not destined for great wealth and honor. Stealing someone's luck is more immoral than murder and arson, but you didn’t believe me. If I hadn’t been bound to you by a contract, I wouldn’t have done such a heinous thing.”
Sun Yushan sneered, "You make it sound so nice. If it weren't for my protection, you would have been killed by some Taoist priest long ago. How could you still be alive today?"
Grey Fairy remained silent.
This is true.
He was bound by a contract with Sun Yushan, becoming a guardian spirit of the family. This allowed him to enjoy the incense offerings of the Sun family, continue his cultivation, and avoid being easily discovered by other cultivators.
But this also means that he must unconditionally agree to all of Sun Yushan's demands.
If the recipient of the faith does not protect the believer, they will suffer a backlash from the power of faith.
Jiang Shumiao glanced back and forth between the two of them, then shook her head. "You two are equally bad. One of you is willing to murder your own blood relatives for money, while the other is trying to use a blood curse to sacrifice living souls for cultivation."
Gray Fairy froze.
Wu suddenly looked at Jiang Shumiao, "Who will be sacrificed?"
"Your two daughters."
Jiang Shumiao is very straightforward.
Wu's vision went black, and she almost fell over.
Sun Yushan didn't react much. He had originally planned to use his daughter's life to revive his son, and now that he knew he had been deceived, his anger outweighed his fear.
"A stinking rat that can't stand the light of day dares to dream of ascending to heaven; it's utterly absurd."
Grey Fairy was also furious.
"If I don't know anything, then why are you begging me? If it weren't for my help, you'd still be a penniless pauper. Your business is booming, yet you don't even have two servants. Isn't it because you're guilty and afraid people will find out you're worshipping household spirits?"
The house wasn't very big; it only had two courtyards.
Compared to the mansions where wealthy businessmen live, it is indeed less eye-catching.
The Sun family fled here due to the war and hastily bought this house. At the time, the family of four did not hire any servants. Later, after the father passed away, the household spirit came to their door. The Sun family's business began to improve, but the old mother's health deteriorated day by day.
Wu served him with all her heart.
Not long after, Ms. Wu became pregnant.
Sun Yushan immediately bought two maids, one to take care of his elderly mother and the other to take care of his pregnant wife.
He knew in his heart that what he was doing was immoral, and he was afraid that the guardian spirit would find out, so he always kept the ancestral hall locked and did not allow anyone to approach it.
Then, Sun's mother passed away, and Wu gave birth to a son.
After the child was weaned, Sun Yushan found a pretext to send both maids away.
Until Wu, whose luck had run out, began to fall ill.
With no one to manage the household, he had no choice but to buy a lame old woman to take care of Wu Shi, thinking that he would move to a bigger house once Wu Shi died. But before Wu Shi died, Jiang Shumiao arrived.
After learning the whole truth, Ms. Wu was on the verge of collapse.
“Sun Yushan, how can you be so heartless? Sisi and Niannian are your own flesh and blood.”
Sun Yushan's face was completely numb and indifferent.
Having twin daughters is considered an auspicious blessing, especially if you already have a son. Without a son, daughters are seen as a financial loss.
Wu understood his gaze and trembled with rage. "You killed your son, and now you're trying to take our lives. You're so heartless that even Heaven couldn't stand it and has finally brought you retribution. This is all your own doing!"
Sun Yushan's expression finally cracked.
He instinctively wanted the guardian spirit to save his life, but the guardian spirit was seriously injured and was still lying on the ground.
Who can save him?
At this moment, he truly panicked. Before he could even beg for mercy, he found himself unable to speak again, and could only look at Jiang Shumiao with terrified eyes.
Jiang Shumiao ignored his sophistry and directly took out the luck he had stolen and returned it to Wu Shi, as well as Sun Sisi and Sun Niannian.
Sun Yushan staggered two steps, his legs gave way, and he knelt on one knee, feeling extremely tired and breathless.
"From now on, you're the one who's going to be unlucky. But you're lucky, your bad luck won't last long."
Sun Yushan looked up, his eyes filled with hope.
Jiang Shumiao smiled innocently, "Because you will die soon."
Sun Yushan's heart sank to the bottom.
Jiang Shumiao then looked at Hui Xian, "As for you, the Underworld will settle your merits and demerits. Go."
With a wave of her hand, Gray Immortal's soul left his body. Before he could react, he felt a powerful force strike him, and in the blink of an eye, he was sent to the underworld.
When Wu saw this, she was dumbfounded.
Jiang Shumiao said to her, "You were originally destined to bring good fortune to your husband, but unfortunately you married the wrong person. However, things will take a turn for the better. Now everything in the Sun family is yours. Live a good life with your two daughters."
Only then did Wu realize what was happening, and she was about to kneel down and kowtow to her.
Jiang Shumiao made a slight gesture to stop her.
When Wu looked up, Jiang Shumiao was already gone.
Jiang Shumiao went to the house with the locust tree in the yard. This time, she didn't knock on the door and went straight through the wall.
Upon entering, one immediately senses a heavy aura of malevolent energy, with black mist filling the air.
The group rules are completely messed up here.
The old locust tree looks quite old, and now it has become a dwelling place for these wandering ghosts.
"Where did this child come from? His soul smells so sweet."
"Why do I feel like she can see us?"
"Hehehe, this child is mine, and no one is allowed to take him from me."
"Everyone who sees it gets a share."
Seven or eight ghosts surrounded Jiang Shumiao, all wanting to eat her.
Jiang Shumiao found it noisy and shouted, "Shut up!"
