Chapter 20: Profiteer Potential

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yang Hongsheng couldn’t be any more regretful now. Why hadn’t they thought straight before deciding to go to the graveyard to meet a female ghost for excitement? Had they known that this kind of thrill-seeking adventure was asking trouble for themselves, they would have balked going.

Yang Hongsheng and Su Yeran were both thrill-seekers. Their families owned large enterprises and they hung out together. They used to go bungee jumping, rock climbing, etc., but they got bored of all that, so Yang Hongsheng found a novel adventure posted on a web forum online. It was said that there was a cemetery in a remote, deserted town where a female ghost was often heard singing in the middle of the night. In addition, hearsay from passersby said that the ghost was gorgeous. When Yang Hongsheng suggested it, a few of his buddies clapped their hands in approval. So, the few friends curiously went to the cemetery in the middle of the night to meet up with the female ghost.

It wasn’t just about whether they were lucky or unlucky, female ghosts saw them and fulfilled their wish. After returning, the eldest of the three, Zhou Kunxiong and the second, Yang Hongsheng, were possessed by female ghosts.

As the saying went, it was easier to invite the devil than to send it away; the same was true for ghosts. A female ghost haunted the eldest, Zhou Kunxiong. Not only would he spout strange things from time to time, but he would also pencil his brows and put on makeup in front of the mirror, then hideously laugh and cry like crazy and even babble and sing songs. That spectacle was extremely creepy.

The second eldest, Yang Hongsheng, who would have seizures now and again, was a bit more normal than the eldest, but he wasn’t normal at all! He kept shouting that he was hungry and devoured table after table of food like a starving ghost until his belly almost burst. Whenever someone stopped him, he would show a murderous face.

The third one, Su Yeran, was lucky, and suffered nothing serious. And the fourth one, Dong Junming, was spared from the suffering because he missed their date due to an earlier appointment.

Yang Hongsheng and the others had hired a number of masters these days. Unfortunately, a lot of them were counterfeits and they wasted money for nothing.

The last time Su Yeran impulsively bought talismans from Chi Shuyan was blind luck. He used several of them and they seemed effective. One Sickness Ward Talisman was used on Yang Hongsheng – ha, no kidding, it worked! The hungry ghost fled after baring her teeth. But the effect on Zhou Kunxiong wasn’t obvious. The ghost possessed Zhou Kunxiong’s body in a tight grip, but it still played a part. Zhou Kunxiong was able to stay awake at least for a while, but his consciousness just seemed caught up in a battle between human and ghost.

After Yang Hongsheng explained the situation to Chi Shuyan, she pursed her lips and smiled very unkindly. “Both of you, Young Masters, seem so charming that you’ve even attracted female ghosts. So do you want to have a human-ghost relationship?”

Yang Hongsheng knew that Chi Shuyan was poking fun at them and smiled bitterly. “Master Chi, we are about to be scared to death by those female ghosts, how can we have such amorous thoughts?” Because their excursion was his idea, the Zhou family abhorred him with passion.

Even after he sent some useful talismans to the Zhou Residence, those Zhou family elders still criticized and accused him of being unsightly.

“Alright, don’t stand in the doorway for now, would you like to have a seat in my house?” Seeing them blocking the doorway and attracting passersby’s attention frequently, Chi Shuyan found it an inconvenient place to talk.

“Master Chi, why could that Sickness Ward Talisman drive away the hungry ghost that possessed me, but not the female ghost on my brother?” Yang Hongsheng was puzzled.

Chi Shuyan had a grasp of the situation, so after a moment’s thought, she said, “Ghost attainment and seniority vary. They could be powerful or not so powerful, and the hungry ghost that possessed you probably hadn’t gained much attainment. By the way, do you know how old the ghost that possessed your brother is?”

“Oh, it’s like a 1,000-year-old female ghost according to the Exorcist Master who came before,” Su Ye Ran replied.

“1,000 years old?” That was going to be a problem. Chi Shuyan dropped her eyes slightly. If it were in her previous life, she could have dealt with as many of these 1,000-year-old female ghosts as she wanted. But her current power had only recovered to the third layer, so dealing with it could be strenuous.

Yang Hongsheng and Su Yeran looked at Chi Shuyan’s appearance and felt their hearts pounding. It seemed that a 1,000-year-old female ghost wasn’t to be trifled with. They exchanged glances with worry in their eyes, apparently afraid that Chi Shuyan would abandon the burden and quit.

“Master Chi, you must save Big Brother, or else he will be in danger.” Yang Hongsheng couldn’t care less about his face, humbling himself subserviently and begging. He was worried and anxious that if anything happened to his Big Brother, the Zhou family might wage a vendetta against his Yang family.

“Right, right, I’ve seen that this talisman was quite useful. Couldn’t we use a few more of them? Maybe that female ghost won’t be able to stand it.” Su Yeran also echoed. He had seen when that talisman was slapped onto Zhou Kunxiong before, that female ghost didn’t take it well at all, as if she was burning in a raging inferno.

Chi Shuyan chuckled: “These are just Protective Talismans and Sickness Ward Talisman, not talismans to repel ghosts. It’s useless against more powerful evil spirits!”

“Master Chi, t-then don’t you have any other ways to exorcise ghosts?” Yang Hongsheng sedulously asked with expectant eyes.

“I forgot to ask, how many days has your big brother been possessed by the female ghost?” Chi Shuyan peeled a large White Rabbit candy and put it in her mouth.

“Five days.”

“Oh, so that’s how it is.” Chi Shuyan was slightly relieved and secretly said that if that female ghost was indeed 1,000 years old, that guy would have kicked the bucket a long time ago. It seemed that the Exorcism Master was a fraud and didn’t live up to his name.

Seeing the two men’s eyes cast on the large pile of White Rabbit candy in front of her, Chi Shuyan quickly moved it over and warmly offered, “Would you like one?”

Yang Hongsheng immediately waved his hand: “… ”?Only children are fond of eating such treats.

Su Yeran also politely shook his head: “…”?This Master Chi is really unique.

Chi Shuyan sized the two up, blinked her eyes and asked, “If you want me to exorcise a ghost, you’ll have to pay me. After all, it’s a life-threatening business. A single negligence could cost my little life. High risk equals high return, don’t you think?”

Yang Hongsheng immediately understood: “How about 10 million?”

Chi Shuyan stretched out two fingers, her eyes flashing with a gleam. She had already become a pauper because of buying elixirs. But if she wanted to quickly regain her previous strength, the only fastest way to do so was to take medicinal baths.

“But there are two of you, so this is a good deal.”

Yang Hongsheng bit his teeth. “Okay, 20 million.” This girl truly couldn’t be judged by her looks. It seemed that she also had the potential of a profiteer.

Chi Shuyan was secretly pleased with herself. As expected, rich people were easy to slaughter, but her fair face remained unchanged. “Deal, pay a million deposit up front, and once the rest of the matter has been dealt with, pay me the balance then.”

Yang Hongsheng was also quick and immediately transferred 1 million to Chi Shuyan’s card.

Soon, Yang Hongsheng’s phone rang, and when he answered the phone, his face changed dramatically.

Su Yeran had a bad hunch at his reaction and hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen at Big Brother’s place again?”

“Big brother hung himself!” Yang Hongsheng’s face stiffened.

Su Yeran: “…”?Oh dear, Big Brother was back with his death tricks. Last time, it was still jumping from a building and slitting his wrists.

“That seems like a pretty ugly way to die, why didn’t he choose sleeping pills?” Chi Shuyan Shuyan commented, “So, is he dead?”

Yang Hongsheng shook his head and said urgently, “Death is not death. Another Sickness Ward Talisman has been used to suppress the female ghost for the time being. But Master Chi, look, we must hurry over there now. It would be terrible if we’re late.”

Chi Shuyan stretched her waist lazily and nodded. “Okay.” If they didn’t leave now, her 10 million would fly away.
