After 

Senior Shu

 screamed, he 

grabbed

 Zhao Feiyan. 

Zhao Feiyan was surprised momentarily. 

However, she

 abruptly flew from the sofa and avoided the attack. 

A

n emerald green layered skirt flew out

. It danced and entangled 

with 

Senior Shu

! 

Seeing this, I couldn’t help but recall Zhou Ehuang, the Empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty. They had experienced the same situation, as their younger sisters were in their 

husbands’

 harems

. They were both left to face loneliness

. After they died, they chose similar weapons. 

Zhuo Ehuang used her sleeves, while Zhao Feiyan used her green skirt.

This skirt should have 

an

 interesting background. With this thought, I wanted to 

check

 Zhao Feiyan’s 

webpage

 again.

Unexpectedly, 

Senior Shu

 screamed, “You stinky boy, why are you standing dumbly over there?!” 

I lifted my head and recognized that 

Senior Shu

 had been almost subdued.

Zhao Feiyan’s skirt was forcing him to back off. He had to release his li

f

e-bound rat. 

When Zhao Feiyan saw the life-bound rat, her movements stiffened. She screamed and retreated to the toilet room. I was certain that she had spotted me, and that she thought that I would be an easier target to deal with. I immediately read the spell and threw the Yin and Yang Umbrella across the void. 

Daoism paid attention to the concept of inaction. Every spell or mantra used to expel evil spirits had an order. Whenever we read a spell, we move

d

 from the shallow meaning to the stronger meaning. However, this time, I didn’t 

use it 

as I 

usually

 did. I 

used the

 Yin and Yang Umbrella 

at

its

 maximum power 

on

 the first attempt! Instantly, the dazzling light from the Yin and Yang Umbrella burst out as though it could radiate thousands of meters away

. It lit 

up the entire room! Moreover, it moved as fast as lightning

, hovering 

above Zhao Feiyan. 

While unde

r the umbrella, she didn’t hide or look panicked. She just turned to look at me with surprise in her eyes. Then, she darkly smiled at me

 and spun around. The moving skirt formed 

a green light circle. 

I thought I had almost succeeded but now

, 

I had to take in a deep breath. 

The 

spirit

s captured underneath the Yin and Yang Umbrella would scream in pain. Even if they were intimidating, they would show their panic. Zhao Feiyan didn’t 

reveal

 anything when I read the spell

, and h

er spinning speed was much faster than the Yin and Yang Umbrella. 

She was indeed the most famous dancer of 

her

 time! 

Senior Shu

 stood like a tiger watching 

his

 prey next to Zhao Feiyan

. H

is 

expression

 was serious. 

This old man had so many treasures, but he hadn’t used any this time. I guessed he was afraid that I would rob him one more time, which resulted 

in this

 embarrassing situation. We could protect ourselves, but we couldn’t do anything to the 

spirit

. Now, we had to entrust our hope in the Yin and Yang Umbrella. 

A few minutes later, my reading speed couldn’t keep up with her anymore. The Yin and Yang Umbrella slowed down, but it didn

’t look like 

Zhao Feiyan was tired. 

Gradually, I felt an invisible pressure on my chest. Every time I read a verse of the spell, my heart throbbed. In the end, I couldn’t endure anymore

 and spat 

a mouthful of blood. 

When engaging in a magic fight, it 

was

 important to be persistent. When I vomited blood, the Yin and Yang Umbrella dropped to the ground

. I

ts halo vanis

hed

. 

I gasped for my breath and clutched my chest

. I moved 

toward 

Senior Shu

. 

We c

autiously watched Zhao Feiyan. 

“Grandson, it seems your grandfather 

won’t be going back with you

 today.” 

Senior Shu

 patted my shoulder

 to show that he cared, like a senior comforting a junior

. Then, he sat down cross-legged

 and read a 

mantra I didn’t understand. As soon as he started to chant, a gray light ring appeared around Zhao Feiyan. 

Zhao Feiyan was about to attack us again when suddenly

, she 

turned pale

. 

She crouched

 and retched

. I rubbed my eyes and recognized that the gray light ring was made of numerous rats

. They 

were rolling their eyes and baring the teeth! 

“I

’ll fight 

you till the end…” 

Zhao Feiyan hissed then flipped and manipulated her layered skirt

. She attacked 

again. This time, her moves were much faster. The strong wind blew my hair backward. 

At first, I was worried. But soon, I recognized that Zhao Feiyan 

wouldn’t be able to

 resist for a long time. She was moving fast, but her moves were disorder

ly

. She couldn’t create 

a

 green shield to protect herself anymore. 

“Arghhh!”

 After l

etting out a shrill cry, Zhao Feiyan fell hard on the ground

. H

er eyes were full of fear and worry. 

Senior Shu

 retrieved his gray light ring. With a 

deep

 and confident voice, he turned to me. “Go get her!” 

I didn’t know why 

Senior Shu

 wanted to release Zhao Feiyan 

at

 this critical moment, but I didn’t ask. 

I drew

 the Sirius Whip from my waist

 and 

slowly 

walked toward

 her. 

Without her intimidating speed, Zhao Feiyan was helpless. As I was approaching her, she backed off to the toilet room. Eventually, she stood in front of Feng Yuanzheng. 

“Why 

do

 you want to harm other 

people

?” I didn’t chase her any further. Standing in front of the toilet, I 

said

 coldly

,

 “You are the older sister, and you wanted to compete against your little sister. Don’t you feel shame?” 

Zhao Feiyan’s 

obsession

 was the competition for the Emperor’s favor. She had put up with it when she was alive because of the blood bond with her sister. However, after she died, she had no emotion, but her 

obsession

 had become deeper and deeper. In the end, she had turned into this evil being. 

Zhao Feiyan was bewildered. Then, she sneered

.

 “Oh well, excuse me, but she stole my husband and my happiness

!

 She stole the favor I once had. She’s my enemy! I hate her!

Hede is my blood sister. My blood sister 

did 

that to me. 

What

 about other 

people

? I know. I know you all want to harm me. I will kill you all!” 

Zhao Feiyan’s voice became crazy. 

At this

 moment, I understood her. The imperial harem was as deep as the ocean. To survive, the women in there would passively or actively change themselves. Every single one of them had to do that, let alone 

a concubine like

 Zhao Feiyan

. 

This kind of change was unbearable to anyone!

I was a little absent-minded for the moment. Suddenly, I heard someone scream. I turned and saw Feng Yuanzheng taking action. He did as I had 

instructed. He was u

sing the Peach Soul Flower to hit Zhao Feiyan 

at

 the nape of her neck. 

Zhang Yan trembled for a while. Then, Zhao Feiyan’s 

spirit

 left her body. She was so mad

 that

she turned and tried to strangle

 Feng Yuanzheng

. She 

directly 

lifted

 him off the ground. 

“Good, do you want to harm me too? Then don’t blame me for showing no mercy!” Zhao Feiyan said with 

a smirk. Her eyes had

 turned 

blood red. 

Since

 our lives were at stake, how could I sympathize with Zhao Feiyan anymore? I shouted, then wielded the Sirius Whip

 and lashed it at

 Zhao Feiyan. Zhao Feiyan dropped Feng Yuanzheng and flew 

toward

 the window. 

Right when I was about to chase after her, the window glowed with golden light. Zhao Feiyan bounced backward. 

Amidst

 the golden light, I saw many talismans adhered 

to the

 window. 

It seemed Senior Shu

 had prepared everything. 

This 

move

 could stop the 

spirit

, but it would also enrage her and make her fight until the bitter end. I immediately jingled the 

Illusory

 Mind Bell. 

The 

Illusory

 Mind Bell always worked on those w

ith distracting

 thoughts, 

whether they were

 human

s or

spirit

s. 

At this

 moment, Zhao Feiyan’s soul 

was

severely

 damaged. She couldn’t resist the 

Illusory

 Mind Bell. She fell

 and struggled 

on the ground. 

“

Why did you have to do that

!” I cursed from 

under my breath

. 

When I faced women, my 

heart always

 softened. 

It didn’t matter if

 she was human or a ghost. A moment ago, I hated that I couldn’t just strike her soul and make her vanish. But now

 that 

Zhao Feiyan was whimpering in pain, I couldn’t take any bold actions towards her. I slowed down the movement of the 

Illusory

 Mind Bell. 

“Ah!”

Zhao Feiyan took the chance. She screamed and charged toward the window

 without minding anything 

else. She directly broke the golden light created by the talismans. Then, her shadow disappeared into thin air. 

I looked at the shards of glass on the ground

 and hated 

myself 

for being such a fool

. Feng Yuanzheng got up from the ground

. He looked 

frightened. “What should we do now?” 

“Take your wife to the hospital. What else can we

do?” I vented

 out

 the anger in my mind. 

There was a loud thud from the living room. I rushed back there and saw 

Senior Shu

 with a chalk-white face

. He had fallen to 

the ground

. Blood was

 gushing from his mouth. 

“

Senior Shu

, are you okay?” I was scared. I had never seen 

him like

 this before. 

Senior Shu

’s voice trembled. “Don’t blame yourself. It’s good that she ran away

.

 If she had noticed that I couldn’t resist anymore, we would all have died tonight

.

 Hurry, leave this place…” 

Then, 

Senior Shu

’s eyes rolled to the back of his head

. He had fainted

. I now understood that it wasn’t that 

Senior Shu

 had given Zhao Feiyan a chance to survive. He was hurt! 

Feng Yuanzheng was panic-stricken

 and called 

the ambulance. The emergency unit came and took both 

Senior Shu

 and Zhang Yan to the ambulance. 

Feng Yuanzheng wanted to follow them, but I held him back

. I told 

him he could go later. 

I patiently explained, “Zhao Feiyan was ambushed today. I’m sure the iron swallow is still in your house. We need to find it. Otherwise, Zhao Feiyan will come here one more time for it.” 

Feng Yuanzheng nodded

 and took 

me to search around his house. In the end, we found the iron swallow tucked underneath Zhang Yan’s bed. 

“Zhao Feiyan

’s soul

was

 expelled from your wife’s body, and now we have the iron swallow. I don’t think it will be too difficult to subdue her!” I smiled at Feng Yuanzheng. 

However, he didn’t react to my encouraging 

words

. He still looked anxious. 

“Don’t think too much

, all right?

” 

He couldn’t ease his mind yet. 

But

since

 we could solve Zhao Feiyan within the next three days, I didn’t want to linger here

. I asked 

him to go to the hospital.
