Chapter 38: CH 38

He Gave You His Soul (2)

Furthermore, are contracts supposed to be this casual? There wasn’t even a ritual!

Ding Yi had the words “disbelief'' written across her face.

The system was speechless for a moment before it kindly reminded her: You should go look at your neck. Isn’t there a dark red mark, like the one that appears between Mu Yueshi’s brows when he demonizes?

She quickly adjusted the mirror and found a strangely shaped scab on her neck… The shape looked just like Mu Yueshi’s forehead marking!

Ding Yi was incredulous. She remembered that Mu Yueshi had bitten her, but she didn’t think much of it back then.

So he had done it secretly!

Ding Yi felt like she could cry, but the system told her: The target wouldn’t willingly bind his life with just anyone. You should be thankful. Since Mu Yueshi formed a contract with you, it means that you have some degree of influence over him, and the chances of him becoming twisted have greatly decreased. And more importantly, you’ve successfully leveled up from being normal cannon fodder to being important cannon fodder. Good job!!

Ding Yi: “…”

My lazy self doesn’t want to become important cannon fodder! I refuse!

Ding Yi’s refusal was accompanied by tears of blood, but the system ignored her.

It was then that a gust of cold air blew into the room from outside, rustling the leaves of the sycamore tree in the yard.

Ding Yi’s gaze turned stern as she stared at the doorway.

As expected, there was a meandering shadow in the doorway, the vengeful spirit.

So you dare show yourself!

Ding Yi frowned and grabbed the peach wood sword hanging from the wall. She wanted to chop that ghost into pieces.

Unexpectedly, the ghost immediately started begging for mercy.

“Don’t, don’t hit me… I’m not here to hurt anyone! Don’t hurt me, don’t hurt me!” screamed the terrified ghost.

Ding Yi squinted at the cowardly female ghost. Something was off. Her face was still ghastly, but the frail ghost did not have the evil aura that it did in their previous encounter. The ghost was pale to the point of transparency.

It seems that the ghost only killed because Yuankong was controlling her. This was her original form.

She looked to be a kind and gentle woman, only turning into a spirit due to the extreme resentment she held due to her ignoble death.

Her life was idyllic before her encounter with the esquire Liu, only to be completely ruined by the esquire’s greed.

Ding Yi had heard about the ghost’s pitiful life, and her heart was heavy with sympathy.

It is said that the dying esquire Liu was even distant relatives with the female ghost, but he was an evil man who stole her body, her property and, in the end, tortured her to death in front of her fiancée.

And when her murder was discovered, afraid that he might be implicated, the esquire Liu used his connections to frame her fiancée for her murder and escaped all responsibility.

The innocent fiancée suffered greatly from the injustice and died from illness. The vengeful ghost was sunk to the bottom of the river, her killer getting off scot free.

The humiliation that she had suffered had gone unavenged, how could she not feel resentment?

It was understandable that the female ghost had an unrelenting bloodthirst for the Liu family’s lives.

Ding Yi held her peach wood sword steady as she sighed: “Although you are a victim, the bloodshed you’ve caused all these years has turned you into an evil spirit. Yuankong Zhenren’s plot has been foiled, and he himself has died. The monks of the Yuling sect are soon to arrive, it’s no use even if you tried hiding here.”

The female ghost smiled rigidly, but she still looked frightening.

“… I know. Liu Shengtong died yesterday night. I have been avenged and have no more attachments…” she turned her neck stiffly, mumbling to herself: “I… I just want to see this place one last time before I disappear…”

Ding Yi saw that the ghost was turning more and more transparent and believed her words.

The fact that her soul was fading away meant that she was soon to face annihilation. She really had no more lingering attachments.

Perhaps she wasn’t an irredeemably evil spirit before she was controlled.

Ding Yi’s chest felt stuffy. She shook her head: “You could’ve avenged yourself, why did you let Yuankong Zhenren control you?”

Ding Yi could not understand this. Judging by the level of the ghost’s resentment, she had the power to kill the esquire Liu, there was no reason for her to wait ten years to do so.

The ghost’s eyes were blank. She fell silent for a moment before saying: “Because… I wanted to revive Yuanlang.”

“What?” Ding Yi wasn’t able to follow.

The female ghost’s raspy voice was choppy: “That person said… If there were enough souls to fill the formation, by using a person with heavy Yang energy as sacrifice, the dead can be revived. That pig, Liu Shengtong, happened to be suitable… Yuanlang, my Yuanlang… I wanted him to be alive…”

That person?

Ding Yi creased her brows: “Yuankong Zhenren told you that the soul binding formation could revive the dead?”

The female ghost turned her head stiffly, a freaky smile forming on her pale face. She neither confirmed nor denied Ding Yi’s question.

A clear, melodious requiem sounded out in the distance, and the female ghost’s expression twisted in pain. Her faint silhouette gradually turned to dust, scattering in the wind.

Ding Yi could hear the female ghost’s pained wails in the wind.

When the requiem ended, the last of the pale shadow vanished into oblivion.
