Chapter 971 Incoming Attack Of A Hungry Ghost



Wu Jin looked at Director Li as if waiting for him to say that he just made a poor joke but when he saw that the man did not say another word, he knew that Director Li was not joking. With a frown on his face, Wu Jin looked at the data in front of him before turning to look at the officer behind him, Officer Guo looked just as confused as him with no answer to the problem in front of them.

" You can leave," seeing that keeping Director Li in the police station was not going to be of any use, Wu Jin sent him away. " But make sure to not leave the town for the next three weeks until we give you the green sign. Understand." n0vElusb.c0m

Director Li nodded heavily, he too wanted to know from where this sudden suspicious channel popped out. Not only was it impossible to track but they couldn't even block the channel! It was like a fishbone that got stuck in their throat with no means in hand to take it out.

Once Director Li took his leave, Wu Jin frowned and then turned to look at Officer Gu before saying, "You take care of the matters in the station, I will go and see Madam Song."

They only had one lead and that lead was broken as well, Wu Jin had no other choice but to look for Song Yan if they were to ignore this matter who knows what might happen later on?

On the other side, in the Xi family house in the countryside, Xi Sang was being told off by his father who was on the verge of exploding. Xi Junxi couldn't care less about his son at the moment, he was furious and livid just thinking about how this idiotic son of his made their entire family kicked out of the main house of the Xi family.

" Do you have any idea what you just did?" Xi Junxi breathed heavily as he looked at the man in front of him while breathing heavily. He was angry enough to hurt Xi Sang but because his wife was stopping him from making a move, Xi Junxi did not do anything to Xi Sang.

Though Xi Sang knew that his father was angry he did not want to accept that he was in the wrong which was why he pursed his lips and then angrily said, " I did nothing wrong, they disrespected my wife. As her husband, I am supposed to protect her——"

SLAP!

This time around Xi Junxi could not hold on anymore as he raised his hand and then slapped his son on the face.

" They disrespected your wife? First, take a look at what kind of wife have you married! Did you expect them to greet and welcome with arms open!" Xi Junxi exclaimed in an exasperated manner as he looked at his stubborn son, somewhere he could not help but question whether he went wrong in raising his son.

" Father!" Xi Sang's voice went up a pitch as he looked at the second floor and then turned to look at his father with a blaming look in his eyes. " How can you even say something like that? What if Lady Yan hears you? Wouldn't she be heartbroken the second she listens to your cold words? She is my wife and your daughter-in-law, is that how you are supposed to talk about her?"

Xi Junxi opened his mouth to contradict his son but was interrupted by Xi Sang who raised his hand and then said in a snappy voice, " Enough, there is no need for you to say anything more father. I know that you never liked Lady Yan, if you dislike the two of us so much then we will move out of the house but I will like it if you get this fact straight in your thick skull that I am never going to leave Lady Yan."

He paused and then added, " Anyway, whatever I do you never like it. In your eyes, only cousin Feng is better in every aspect and I am just his silly sidekick!"

After he was done speaking, he climbed up the stairs leaving Xi Junxi to fume alone in the living room as he turned to look at his wife and then pointed at his son before saying, " Did you see that? This is the kind of son you have raised!"

Mother Xi wept silently, a part of her wanted to retort to Father Xi by telling him that it was his fault that their son became like this, if not for the fact that he always compared their son with their elder brother's son, nothing like this would have happened.

The Xi couple were having a hard time trying to make Xi Sang understand while Xi Sang simply thought that he and Lady Yan were meant to be, if not why was the entire world trying to separate the two of them? Surely the love they had for one another was destined!

" Lady Yan?" When Xi Sang entered the room, he realised that the entire room was filled with darkness. With his eyes trying to focus on the figure of his wife, he groped around for the button to turn the light on, soon the entire room was flooded with light but because of the sudden onslaught of bright light, his eyes lost focus but even so for two seconds he caught hold of something dark and terrifying which scared the living daylights out of him.

" My lord?"

It took Xi Sang ten seconds before his eyes adjusted to the light in the room, he blinked his eyes before looking at Madam Yan. As soon as her beautiful face came into his view, Xi Sang heaved a sigh of relief—— maybe just now he saw something else and took it for Lady Yan. How can his beautiful wife be ugly with her skin as dark as that of a rotten corpse? She was his angel!

" Lady Yan, I am really sorry about what happened at the banquet. It was my lack of attention, I should have known that my family would never be able to understand our love!" Xi Sang felt touched and heartbroken like the protagonist of a beautiful romantic story. He reached out his hands and then caught hold of his wife's hands before saying in a low voice, " But don't worry, even if we are the ones against the world, I will stand up for you, Lady Yan."

Lady Yan looked at Xi Sang with a touched expression as her eyes turned red with grief, she leaned forward and then hugged Xi Sang before saying, " I don't care, my lord. As long as you are by my side, I don't care about anything —— you are the only one whom I care about. As for the rest, I cannot even bother to pay attention to them."

" Lady Yan," touched to his core, Xi Sang couldn't stop himself from hugging and kissing Lady Yan. Soon the two of them tumbled into the bed where Lady Yan sucked a generous amount of Yang energy from Xi Sang before knocking him unconscious.

" My lord?" Lady Yan tentatively called out before she waved her hands in front of Xi Sang's face, seeing that he was not responding her expression turned malicious as she rose from the bed and then vanished into thin air.

....

" Mother make sure to keep this talisman on you all the time, don't even think about taking it off, all right?" Assistant Xi told his mother as he handed her a stack of talismans to share between herself and his father. " Don't let these talismans leave your body."

Assistant Xi returned in a hurry from the Fu family and from what Song Yan told him, it was clear that the ghost was going to attack one of their family members tonight. It would be better if they were prepared for the worst-case scenario. He then handed the talismans to his third uncle's family before turning to look for his aunt and uncle.

" Where is Aunt Meiqing?" He asked with a frown on his face.

" Her mother-in-law suddenly fell sick which is why she left in a hurry," replied Madam Xi but upon seeing the expression on the face of her son, she realised that something was very wrong.

Even Xi Zheng noticed that something was odd about his son's behaviour thus he immediately asked, " Is something the matter son?"

Assistant Xi parted his lips and in a hurry said, " I ... went to a celestial master's place just now and she told me that the ghost was going to attack someone from our family, she asked me to take care. Now that Aunt Meiqing is gone, what are we going to do?!"

His words caused the Xi parents' complexion to change as they immediately rushed to call Xi Meiqing but for some reason, the call couldn't connect!
