Shi Yunhua's childish voice sounded like thunder in Tong Yan's ears.
Tong Yan was able to stand out from so many competitors, on the one hand because his cultivation was better than that of his fellow disciples, and on the other hand because he paid great attention to maintaining relationships with other masters of metaphysics.
It's just that he had been doing this job of ghost catcher for a long time and had always been flattered and courted by ordinary people, so he unconsciously became arrogant and developed a sense of superiority.
Now that he has lost this job that allowed him to be treated differently, it is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for him.
Although Shi Yunhua looked very young, he didn't think the other party would joke about such things casually.
He said in a panic, "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. Please, give me another chance, okay? I can't lose this job."
Tong Yan's parents also lost their initial composure. Wasn't their family's current status due to their son's part-time job as a ghost messenger?
Tong's father took all the blame on himself. "It's my fault. My son didn't have this idea at first. I kept encouraging him, and he couldn't get over it, so he made this decision. Blame me if you want to, he's really innocent."
Tong Yan's mother was crying over there, but when she suddenly saw He Xuan's calm expression, she felt a strong sense of disgust and hatred.
Her son had always been excellent and sensible, and it must have been a blessing in her past life that he fell in love with He Xuan. This girl looked so well-behaved, but she had such a bad heart, and she even secretly complained about it, causing her son to suffer like this.
Although she hated him to the core, Tong's mother still retained a bit of rationality. She knew that Shi Miao's sister had clearly been deceived by He Xuan, the scheming bitch, and her heart had long been biased towards her. If she attacked her at this time, it would only make them have a worse impression of their son. So she could only suppress her hatred and said in a pleading tone, "He Xuan, my son just likes you too much and has done nothing wrong. Can you forgive him?"
She couldn't help but add, "Can't you just consider that because of him, you have a chance to become an immortal?"
As long as he could get through the current difficulties and cultivate well, his son would eventually become a true god. She didn't believe He Xuan could achieve much, and there would be plenty of opportunities to redeem herself in the future.
The Great Peng Demon King saw through the humans' ulterior motives at a glance, and a sarcastic smile curled his lips. "What? According to you, she should thank you? This girl has always been destined for this. It doesn't matter whether she has your son or not. Don't flatter yourself. Anyone with a discerning eye can see her inherent qualities."
After all, the physique of Lu Ding is the easiest to detect.
"If you keep on whining, I'll go have a good chat with his master."
After hearing this, Tong Yan couldn't sit still any longer. "Mom, please stop talking. I did something wrong, so I deserve to be taught a lesson."
If he continues like this, not only will he lose his identity as a ghost catcher, he may even be kicked out of his home, and he will have no future.
He Xuan wouldn't treat him differently just because he seemed reasonable, thinking he was truly repentant. If he really thought that, he would have stopped his mother the moment she opened her mouth, instead of waiting for Shi Yunhua's bodyguard (she mistook the Great Peng Demon King for a bodyguard) to warn her before rushing to stop her.
Now she just wants to go back to school quickly and never come back.
Yun Huayin looked at He Xuan, "Do you want to go with us?"
"Okay." He Xuan nodded without hesitation.
As they were about to leave, Tong's father looked at his distraught son and shouted at their backs, "No one can be truly impartial when it comes to matters concerning their loved ones, right? My son isn't the only one who's been partial to his ghosts, so why punish him alone? Even if it's your sister Shi Miao, I doubt she wouldn't use backdoors to arrange a reincarnation for her loved ones!"
Yun Huayin stopped, her expression completely cold. The chill that emanated from her instantly spread silently throughout the room, and everyone present felt as if a heavy stone was pressing down on their chests, making even breathing difficult.
Although her face was still as cute as before, it now gave them an unprecedented sense of danger.
Tong Yan's face was uglier than white paper. Even the King of Hell he met in the underworld did not give him such a sense of oppression.
Shi Miao's sister is not an ordinary person at all! Everyone has been deceived!
Yun Huayin's eyes turned golden and she was very angry now.
"I'm telling you, Miaomiao will at most give the Qi of Merit to her relatives and friends, and will never use her authority to manipulate their reincarnations. Don't take it for granted and assume she's doing that. If you want to give the Qi of Merit to your relatives and friends, you can do so. The underworld doesn't forbid it. Why not? Don't you want to?"
The Dapeng monster sneered, "How could he have enough merit? He doesn't even have enough for himself, let alone for his family."
Tong Yan's face turned pale and blue, like he had overturned a dyeing factory. He gritted his teeth and swore that when he got home, he would emphasize to his parents that he would control his mouth. One day, he would be ruined by them.
Yun Huayin continued, "But you have reminded us that we really need to thoroughly investigate the professional qualities of the part-time ghost messengers. We must not allow any bad apples in the team."
Tong Yan felt like fainting, imagining the subsequent shockwaves this would cause within the Xuan Sect. They would definitely investigate the source of this sudden purge, and if it led to him, those who had been caught and removed wouldn't blame themselves but would simply blame him and resent him.
By then, he would definitely have made many enemies. How could he survive in the Xuan Sect in the future?
