Chapter 56 They wanted to set fire!
Chen Kejing said coldly, "Shangguan Peiyu, we didn't send you an invitation, did we? You came uninvited, you're really shameless."
Yu Wenli couldn't hold back any longer and said sternly, "Miss Shangguan, today is my daughter's homecoming banquet. If you're here to offer your congratulations, you're welcome to come and enjoy the celebration. But if you're here to cause trouble, please leave and don't try to smear my daughter!"
“Dirty water, huh?” Shangguan Peiyu smiled without saying a word, then pointed at Miss Chen. Everyone saw a woman wearing a red wedding dress, with a pale face, bloodshot eyes, and bluish-purple lips, bound by a strange rope.
"Did you all see that? Yu Xiaoluo not only keeps highly venomous demonic pets, but also female ghosts. Do you really dare to ask her to tell your fortunes and exorcise ghosts? Do you really dare to get close to her? Don't end up not even knowing how you died!"
Seeing the female ghost's rather pitiful appearance, even Chen Kejing was stunned, her mouth agape, unsure of what to say.
Everyone was whispering among themselves, and the tone of the live stream suddenly shifted.
"Yu Xiaoluo didn't seem to object at all. Does that mean she's admitting it?"
"I never expected that she not only raises demons, but also ghosts. You can't judge a book by its cover. This seemingly harmless little girl could raise anything, let alone ghosts."
Is Luo Luo really that kind of person?
"The facts are right in front of you, don't you believe it? You people are really strange."
...
In the hall, everyone was whispering and unconsciously took a few steps back. But Yu Xiaolu remained silent, looking at Miss Chen.
Miss Shen kept making muffled noises, unable to speak at all.
Haha, so Shangguan Peiyu didn't want her to speak at all, and directly confirmed my involvement in raising ghosts.
It's just a small seal, how could it not be broken? Heh, Shangguan Peiyu, who do you think you are? You're wrong to underestimate this sect.
Yu Xiaoluo threw a talisman at Miss Chen, shouting, "Break!"
Shangguan Peiyu sneered, "Yu Xiaoluo, are you trying to silence me? You're so guilty and impatient, tsk tsk—"
Everyone stared at Yu Xiaoluo in astonishment, thinking she really wanted to kill the female ghost to silence her.
However, the female ghost did not disappear; instead, she let out a cry of "Ah!" and the ropes binding her body broke and fell off.
Shangguan Peiyu frowned. Had she broken my gagging seal and soul-locking rope?
Could it be that her strength is truly superior to mine? Because only someone stronger than her could break her seal.
No, this female ghost cannot be allowed to live.
She moved her hand, intending to make a move, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, her whole body was suppressed by a powerful force, and she was unable to release it at all.
She looked at Yu Xiaoluo in shock, but Yu Xiaoluo didn't even glance at her, instead looking at Miss Chen.
Yu Xiaoluo just wanted to know Miss Shen's attitude towards this matter; she didn't care about anything else.
Miss Shen discovered that she could finally speak and cried out, "Shangguan Peiyu, you woman, don't slander good people! I am not a ghost raised by Miss Yu. Miss Yu only kept me by her side temporarily to help me pass on to the afterlife!"
Yu Xiaolu smiled with satisfaction. If she had conspired with Shangguan Peiyu to frame her, she wouldn't have wanted to save this ghost either. The fact that she could tell the truth showed that she had a conscience.
"Yes, I can testify!"
Zou Laohei squeezed through the crowd and, after seeing the female ghost's face clearly, stepped forward. "Patriarch Shangguan, you've misunderstood. I had Luo Luo capture this female ghost. I was possessed by her at the time, so I asked Luo Luo for help, and she captured her. However, the female ghost died unjustly and still has lingering attachments from her past life, which are necessary for her to be released. Therefore, Luo Luo is keeping her with her for now, and we'll send her away once her attachments are fulfilled."
Yu Jiangbai glanced at Shangguan Peiyu and said sarcastically, "Lao Hei is also my brother. I asked Luo Luo to help with this matter. I didn't expect that someone with ulterior motives would take advantage of me and even frame my sister for raising ghosts. I really don't know why these clowns love to cause trouble."
Seeing so many people come forward to testify, Shangguan Peiyu panicked. "Don't believe them! They're all in cahoots! One is his biological brother, and the other is a adopted brother! They've all conspired together."
"Colluded? Did you notify us beforehand that you were going to frame my sister by catching a ghost?"
"You're all birds of a feather, don't believe them!"
Miss Shen shouted, "Miss Yu, the chandelier that just fell was done by Shangguan's men. I followed one of them, and he tried to cut off the power. In the chaos, he even tried to set a fire!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked and looked at Shangguan Peiyu.
Someone shouted, "Shangguan Peiyu, come out and explain yourself! Is what this female ghost is saying true?"
Yu Xiaolu pointed her finger, and the two men holding Miss Shen released her and took a few steps back.
Miss Shen glared fiercely at Shangguan Peiyu, "I swear on my soul that every word I have said is true. If I am lying, may I be struck by lightning and my soul be scattered!"
“I caught the man who was pulling the switch and prevented him from succeeding. I was going to hand him over to Miss Yu so she could deal with him. But I didn’t expect to run into Shangguan Peiyu. It was this woman who grabbed me.”
"Shangguan Peiyu, you heartless woman, you want everyone here to die here, and you even had two barrels of gasoline brought in! Disguised as drinks!"
Everyone looked at Shangguan Peiyu, who panicked. "How could this be? How could I possibly do such a thing? You hateful female ghost, don't slander me! My Shangguan family has always abided by the law and would never do such a thing!"
"Let's see if it's really possible?" a cynical voice rang out from behind the crowd.
Everyone turned to look and saw Bao Shuoyu leading two men in black suits over. They quickly made way for them to go in.
Yu Xiaolu didn't know when he went to catch the person, and she really didn't expect him to be able to catch him.
Bao Shuoyu threw the two men to the ground, but Shangguan Peiyu glanced at them without changing her expression. "Are you sure they're my men? They don't seem to be in good shape."
Bao Shuoyu quickly bent down to check what was going on, only to see the two men in black suits spitting out large amounts of black blood and dying within seconds.
He glanced coldly at Shangguan Peiyu, then turned to Yu Xiaoluo, "They committed suicide."
Nanshan and the others then conducted a search of the entire hall, opening all the beverage cases one by one. After a while, they found that two cans of gasoline had been disguised as beverages and had been smuggled in, placed in the hall against the wall.
And this spot is really unnoticed. Even if someone goes there, they'll just assume they're getting a drink, and no one will think much of it.
