Chapter 138 Walking on the Pond: I Must Take Care of This
"Hey, don't hold us back. I can draw talismans and drive. What can you do? You can't do anything. You're with my sister, and we have to protect you. How are you going to get in the way? With you blocking our way, how are we going to catch Shangguan Peiyu?"
Seeing his fierce expression and his yelling at her, Zhao Tianxin's fragile heart could no longer hold back, and she burst into tears, crying very sadly.
Yu Liang was speechless for a moment, and Yu Xiaoluo was also at a loss because of the noise. "Fine, let's follow her then. You know Shangguan Peiyu well, you must know where she likes to go, right?"
"I know, I know." Zhao Tianxin's mood improved a bit.
"In that case, you'll have to carry my sister's bag."
Yu Liang thought to himself, "I finally got a subordinate. If she doesn't do the work, who will? Aren't newcomers just meant to be bullied? Back when I was a newcomer, all I had to do was shovel poop."
Zhao Tianxin was taken aback for a moment, but still nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I'll carry it."
So she eagerly went to pick up the big cloth bag, but the first time she tried, she couldn't lift it and was instantly dumbfounded. The second time, she finally managed to pick it up with great effort.
It's just going out, what's inside? It must weigh over ten kilograms.
"Miss Yu, your bag is a bit heavy." Zhao Tianxin tried to force a smile, but she couldn't manage it, so she looked worse than crying.
Yu Xiaoluo sighed inwardly. Workplace bullying is everywhere, and besides, this newcomer hasn't even received a salary yet.
However, she didn't care. Zhao Tianxin, who was originally a proud and arrogant heiress, had suddenly fallen from grace. This was a test for her. If she couldn't even handle this, she shouldn't stay by her side.
After driving for a while, Yu Xiaoluo suddenly wanted to find Chi Shangxing. As the head of the three great schools of metaphysics, she wondered if Shangguan Peiyu knew about the soul-absorbing matter.
She just wanted to know how Ikegami would react after learning about this.
"Go find Old Man Chi."
So Yu Liang drove to find Chi Shangxing, but when he arrived at the Chi family's door, he was stopped by two security guards.
Yu Liang got out of the car and said arrogantly, "We are from the Yu Family Metaphysics Academy. Go in and inform the Chi family head that Master Yu Xiaoluo has come to visit us."
The two security guards exchanged a glance; Yu Xiaoluo's name was now a household name.
One of them went to report. At this time, Chi Shangxing had just finished practicing a set of boxing techniques. When he heard that Yu Xiaoluo had come to visit, his brows furrowed, and he asked the security guard to bring them to the reception room to meet.
After Yu Xiaoluo came in, she carefully observed the feng shui layout of their house and was particularly amazed.
The Black Tortoise position has an artificial mountain forming a natural backing, and the Vermilion Bird position has a bright hall in front of it. The terrain is flat and open, which is very conducive to accumulating wealth and energy. There is a fountain on the left and green plants on the right. The left is the Azure Dragon and the right is the White Tiger, which is in balance of Yin and Yang.
This is a very typical layout that brings wealth and good fortune. No wonder the position of the eldest son of the Chi family has never been shaken. The feng shui master who designed this layout is also first-rate, and there are almost no flaws.
It seems that the Chi family is indeed very capable; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to create such a good feng shui arrangement.
The three of them followed the security guard to the reception room, where Chi Shangxing and two elders were already waiting.
Seeing Yu Xiaoluo and the others walking towards them, Chi Shangxing showed no airs of an elder and stood up to welcome them, saying, "Master Yu has arrived. I never expected that Master Yu would come to visit in person. It makes me, Chi, very proud."
Chi Shangxing, that old fellow, is quite polite and knows how to behave. Yu Xiaoluo smiled and said, "Patriarch Chi, you really know how to talk. Please don't call me Master anymore. Xiaoluo is just a junior. How can I let a senior address me like that? Wouldn't that be too much for Xiaoluo?"
After exchanging a few polite words, Yu Xiaoluo got straight to the point, "I apologize for bothering you today, but I have something I'd like to tell Patriarch Chi."
"Please have a seat, all of you. I am all ears."
After they sat down, the butler made them each a cup of tea, and Yu Xiaoluo got straight to the point, "Are you aware of Shangguan Peiyu's involvement with the evil cultivator?"
Chi Shangxing and the two elders exchanged glances. Chi Shangxing chuckled and said, "Miss Yu, you can't say such things carelessly. After all, the head of the Shangguan family is one of the three great families of metaphysics. How could she possibly be an evil cultivator?"
Yu Xiaoluo wasn't in a hurry. "Recently, many people have died, and the souls of the dead have all disappeared. Are you aware of this?"
One of the elders nodded. "I've heard about it."
"There are also some wandering ghosts who have lost their souls. Patriarch Chi, you have also had contact with Shangguan Peiyu. Didn't you notice any changes in her?"
The three of them felt a jolt in their hearts. They were all highly skilled cultivators and naturally noticed that Shangguan Peiyu's aura had suddenly become very strong recently.
One of the elders was the one who went to burn down the Yu family restaurant that day. He had personally witnessed Shangguan Peiyu's power, so he whispered a few words to Chi Shangxing.
Although Chi Shangxing also had some doubts about Shangguan Peiyu, he was still somewhat incredulous when he heard about her eating souls. "Miss Yu, do you have any evidence that Shangguan Peiyu eats souls?"
Yu Xiaoluo picked up her phone and handed it to Chi Shangxing. At that time, Zhao Tianxin picked up her phone intending to film the two thugs bullying Shangguan Peiyu and upload it online so that she would be branded as promiscuous even after death. Unexpectedly, she ended up filming a video of her sucking souls.
Furthermore, she pointed to Zhao Tianxin, "This is what she saw with her own eyes."
Zhao Tianxin nodded. "Because I've always suspected that my father's death was related to Shangguan Peiyu, I secretly hired a master to summon my father's spirit so he could tell me the truth. But the master said my father's spirit couldn't be found. I was at my wit's end, so I called two people to teach her a lesson, but unexpectedly—"
At this point, Zhao Tianxin couldn't stop her tears again. "Grandpas, my father was also killed by Shangguan Peiyu. Please help me get justice."
Chi Shangxing's expression changed, and he suddenly stood up, saying righteously, "Shangguan Peiyu actually did such a thing. As the president of the Kangba City Metaphysics Society, I must take care of this matter!"
Yes, if we don't do anything about it, Shangguan Peiyu will take advantage of him. If this drags on any longer, Shangguan's cultivation level will be higher than his. Will he still be able to sit in the top position in Kangba City?
Moreover, he knew Shangguan Peiyu's temperament. This woman was ruthless and vicious. Once she reached a certain level in her evil cultivation, she would not allow the Chi family to survive, nor the Yao family.
She never shows mercy to the weak.
As for Yu Xiaoluo, who was stronger than her, she was unable to deal with her because she was not strong enough.
At that time, the Chi family and the Yao family may face a catastrophe.
