440: The power of the talisman is fully bestowed upon me! The Yangyan Protective Talisman!

Chapter 432: The Power of the Talisman Shall Be Added to My Body! Sun Flame Protection Talisman!

"Deputy Officer Mo! Great Master! Save me quickly! There's a ghost!"

After Steward Wu saw who had arrived, especially when he saw the Great Master wearing a Daoist robe, he was practically overjoyed.

This was the personal Junior Brother of the Fu Yuan Temple Abbot; his cultivation was profound, certainly not comparable to ordinary Jianghu sorcerers!

Wild joy filled his heart, and the desire to survive instantly overwhelmed everything else. Ignoring his aching knees and scraped palms, he scrambled up from the ground using all four limbs and rushed, stumbling and crawling, toward the direction where Deputy Officer Mo and the Great Master stood.

Immediately afterward, a chilling, oily green light seeped out from the originally pitch-black doorway.

The figure of the Seventeenth Concubine slowly drifted out, suspended half a foot above the ground.

Her face was paper-white, and her eyes were pure black, devoid of any vitality a living person should possess, holding only bone-deep coldness and silence as she stared indifferently at the three people in the courtyard.

"It's... it's the Seventeenth Concubine!" Deputy Officer Mo gasped, feeling a chill surge from the soles of his feet straight to the crown of his head. His legs instantly turned as soft as noodles, and he nearly collapsed on the spot.

If it weren't for the Great Master from Fu Yuan Temple standing beside him, he would definitely have abandoned everyone and fled without looking back!

The reason the Great Master was here was precisely because Lu Xuan had specially instructed Deputy Officer Mo to invite him from Fu Yuan Temple.

At the time, Deputy Officer Mo had speculated that the Commander's action was probably to find a good geomantic spot to properly bury the Seventeenth Concubine and Young Miss Qing, and that the Great Master was invited to preside over the rites.

He had just settled the Great Master in the adjacent courtyard and prepared some tea, intending to exchange a few pleasantries, when he heard the wailing and loud commotion coming from this courtyard.

The Great Master suddenly changed his expression and rushed over—Deputy Officer Mo had no choice but to follow, and as a result, he ran straight into the horrifying scene before them!

Before them, the vengeful spirit of the Seventeenth Concubine did not waste words with the three men. Yin wind billowed around her, and her skirt rustled loudly.

She spread her arms, and the ten black fingernails on her hands suddenly lengthened, carrying bone-chilling Evil Qi as they shot toward Deputy Officer Mo and the two others!

"Such heavy Evil Qi!"

The Great Master's pupils contracted, and he dared not delay.

He immediately performed the profound Seven Star Step. As his body flickered, he was already standing in front of Deputy Officer Mo and Steward Wu.

At the same time, the Great Master reached into his robes and quickly pulled out a carefully drawn yellow Talisman paper. The cinnabar Talismanic patterns on it coiled like Dragons and snakes, containing the power of pure Yang.

He formed the Evil Suppression hand seal, chanted the true words in a voice like a great bell: "By the decree of the True Lord of Sun Flame, Heavenly Fire descends! Burn the evil and break the filth, light shines for ten thousand miles! The Samadhi Fire blazes, eradicating all demons! Quickly, by the law and decree!"

"Chì!"

As the incantation ended, the yellow Talisman in his hand suddenly burst forth with dazzling golden light!

Then, with a 'boom,' the Talisman paper spontaneously combusted without fire, transforming into a blazing ball of golden flame that enveloped his palm without harming him in the slightest.

"Go!"

The Great Master's hair and beard bristled, his Daoist robe billowed, and he fiercely pushed the ball of golden flame in his hand toward the ten incoming ghostly claws!

The golden flame swelled dramatically against the wind, illuminating the entire courtyard as if it were daytime.

"Ah—!"

The female ghost let out a mournful shriek. The ten black fingernails, filled with dense Evil Qi, were instantly ignited upon touching the golden flame, rapidly turning into wisps of acrid white smoke.

The Great Master was extremely experienced in slaying demons and eradicating evil. Seeing that the female ghost's movement paused due to injury, revealing an opening,

his eyes flashed brightly. Without the slightest hesitation, his figure shot forward again!

The Great Master moved with wind-like steps, leaving an afterimage in the night as he rapidly approached the Seventeenth Concubine's body.

While rushing forward, he unhesitatingly bit his left index finger until it bled.

Immediately, a smear of bright red essence blood was applied to the peachwood sword that was always tied to his waist.

"Buzz—!"

After receiving the sorcerer's essence blood blessing, the seemingly ordinary peachwood sword suddenly let out a clear chime. The sword body shone brilliantly with golden light, and a wave of pure, righteous Yang Qi shot toward the sky!

The Great Master saw that the peachwood sword had been consecrated and its might greatly increased. He knew deeply that such vengeful spirits harbored profound obsession, and piercing her directly might damage the Foundation of her soul body, which would be against the harmony of nature.

Therefore, he flipped his wrist, changing the thrust into a strike, and slammed the golden-glowing peachwood sword blade horizontally against the Seventeenth Concubine's spirit body, much like a disciplinary ruler!

"Crack!"

Where the sword blade struck the spirit body, a burst of gold and red electric sparks suddenly erupted, as if righteous Yang Qi and Yin Evil resentment were violently colliding and annihilating each other!

"Urgh Ah—!"

The Seventeenth Concubine let out an extremely painful wail, and her entire body seemed to have been struck head-on by an invisible, ten-thousand-pound heavy hammer.

Finally, she flew backward uncontrollably, passing directly through the open doorway and tumbling back into the room filled with chilling Yin Qi!

The Great Master stood holding his sword, his hair slightly raised, and he sternly shouted: "Vile creature! Why do you not submit to the law!"

Having said that, he rushed into the room without looking back.

Seeing the Great Master display his Divine Might, knocking the terrifying vengeful spirit of the Seventeenth Concubine back into the room with a single strike,

Deputy Officer Mo and Steward Wu outside were completely dumbfounded.

However, just then, Deputy Officer Mo suddenly shuddered, finally recovering from the shock.

His eyes instantly widened like copper bells. Thinking of the Commander's temper, he was instantly scared out of his wits. Ignoring the ghost entirely, he anxiously yelled toward the Great Master's back.

"Great Master! Please show mercy! Utmost mercy!"

"That is the Seventeenth Concubine's corpse! Your Divine Ability is vast, but you absolutely, absolutely must not harm her remains in the slightest!

Otherwise... otherwise, if the Commander holds us responsible, you and I... and everyone in this mansion, might face great disaster!"

Deputy Officer Mo knew his Commander's temper too well. Even for a woman he had grown tired of, or even killed, her corpse was absolutely not allowed to be damaged by outsiders in the slightest.

If the Commander were to see two charred, fragmented corpses torn to pieces later, the consequences were something he dared not imagine!

Deputy Officer Mo's warning caused the Great Master, who had just stepped over the threshold, to stop abruptly, halting his pursuit.

His original plan was to press the attack and completely weaken the female ghost's resentment and Yin Qi.

Then, he would find a way to subdue her, bring her back to Fu Yuan Temple for slow deliverance, resolve her resentment, and send her on to rebirth.

This was both the duty of a person of the Daoist sect and a virtuous act for accumulating Karma.

But now... "Alas!" The Great Master sighed inwardly, instantly changing his mind.

He had to switch tactics.

He had personally experienced the methods of Commander Lu.

When a scholar meets a soldier, reason cannot prevail.

The Great Master did not believe his reasoning could convince a murderous warlord who commanded heavy troops.

If he truly damaged the female ghost's corpse, even if it was for the sake of subduing a demon and eradicating evil, he would likely not escape the resulting wrath.

The Great Master's eyes narrowed. The golden light on the peachwood sword in his hand slightly retracted, shifting from a sharp offensive posture to a steady defensive stance.

He quickly hung the peachwood sword, its golden light contained, back onto his waist. Simultaneously, his left hand formed a sword-finger sign and drew something out from within his sleeve.

The next moment, a crimson, fire-like Talisman slipped out from the wide Daoist sleeve on his right arm and was firmly held between his fingers!

This Talisman was drawn on specialized red paper using cinnabar mixed with red saltpeter. The brushstrokes flowed like Dragons and snakes, containing a powerful suppressive force. It was the "Evil Suppression Talisman," a true transmission of Fu Yuan Temple!

This Talisman did not need to be burned; if successfully affixed to the female ghost's body, it could draw upon the righteous Qi of heaven and earth to temporarily seal her movements.

It was the optimal choice for the current situation, as it allowed him to subdue the enemy without damaging the corpse.

Instantly, the Great Master's hair and beard bristled, and he roared: "Vile creature, look here!"

Although the Seventeenth Concubine was injured by the peachwood sword, she kept her lips tightly sealed, not uttering a single word.

Her completely black eyes surged with monstrous malice, fiercely glaring at the Great Master and at Deputy Officer Mo, who had just cautiously moved closer.

Stared down by those inhuman, terrifying eyes, Deputy Officer Mo felt a chill shoot from his tailbone straight to the crown of his head. His throat tightened, and he couldn't help but swallow hard.

He desperately tried to encourage himself: "Don't be afraid... the Great Master is here... don't be afraid..."

In a flash of lightning, the Great Master's left hand darted into his robes, and the next moment, he produced a palm-sized ancient bronze mirror.

The mirror surface was covered with dense Talismanic Incantations drawn in cinnabar!

"Buzz—"

The bronze mirror instantly lit up against the wind, suddenly bursting forth with blinding golden light!

The light was supremely Yang and fierce, piercing the gloom like a materialized sharp sword, instantly illuminating the entire room!

"Hiss Ah—!"

The Seventeenth Concubine was hit head-on by the pure Yang golden light. Her eyes instantly felt as if they were being burned by fire, and she let out a piercing shriek.

She instinctively raised her arms to desperately shield her face, and the Yin Qi surrounding her churned and dissipated like boiling water.

This opportunity must not be lost!

The Great Master's figure shot forward again. He performed the stepping ritual, covering the five-step distance in a single sweep.

His eyes flashed like lightning, firmly locking onto the female ghost who had dropped her guard due to the intense light. His right hand, gripping the crimson Talisman, became an afterimage.

"Chì!"

The Evil Suppression Talisman flew from his hand. Its crimson light flowed like blood, carrying fierce evil-breaking power directly toward the Seventeenth Concubine's glabella.

The sound of the wind suddenly ceased, and all was silent. The swirling cold aura retreated, and the room instantly returned to clarity.

In the center of the room, the Seventeenth Concubine's corpse was completely frozen in place, maintaining the posture of raised arms and an attempted lunge.

The crimson Evil Suppression Talisman was firmly affixed to her forehead. The cinnabar Talismanic script on its surface faintly glowed, maintaining this fragile balance.

Seeing this scene, Deputy Officer Mo's heart finally settled, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

Immediately afterward, as if he suddenly remembered something, he sharply turned his head to look at Young Miss Qing's coffin nearby.

Thank goodness!

Although Young Miss Qing's face inside the coffin was terrifyingly pale, she was still lying quietly, without the slightest movement.

However, just to be safe, Deputy Officer Mo cautiously tugged on the Great Master's sleeve and lowered his voice.

"Great Master, Young Miss Qing here... she won't cause trouble, will she?"

"Would you like to take a look? It would be best... best to also affix an Evil Suppression Talisman to her, just in case."

"I will go and invite the Commander to come and decide what to do! Great Master, you... you must keep a close watch here, and absolutely must not harm the corpses of the Seventeenth Concubine or Young Miss Qing again!"

Having finished speaking, he dared not linger any longer. He cupped his hands toward the Great Master, turned, and quickly ran toward Lu Xuan's courtyard.

Not long after, inside the room, Steward Wu and the returning Deputy Officer Mo tremblingly relit the extinguished candles.

The candlelight flickered, reflecting a scene different from before.

One coffin was missing, replaced by the stiff corpse of the Seventeenth Concubine, fixed in place by the Evil Suppression Talisman, standing rigidly where she was.

"Commander, this... the Seventeenth Concubine... how should she be handled?" Deputy Officer Mo asked cautiously for instructions. The eyes of the Great Master and Steward Wu were all focused on Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan slightly narrowed his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the rigid corpse, then glancing at Chen Qing, who lay quietly in the coffin.

"A malevolent ghost seeking revenge must have suffered injustice, but the dead cannot be brought back to life..."

As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head to look at the Great Master beside him. "Do you have any method to extract the memories inside her head?"

Seeing the great warlord Lu Xuan looking at him, the Great Master bowed without hesitation and responded: "Yes!"

The next moment, the Great Master immediately started working. He untied the apricot-yellow ritual bag he carried.

From it, he took out a wolf-hair brush, a cinnabar inkstone, and a sheet of pre-cut yellow Talisman paper.

The Great Master solemnly arranged these items one by one on the spiritual platform.

Immediately, he formed a sword-finger sign and traced several strokes in the air toward the wolf-hair brush, chanting obscure and profound incantations.

As the incantation proceeded, a faint trace of crimson spiritual light appeared on his fingertips!

Once the spiritual light stabilized, the Great Master, quick as a flash, grabbed the brush from the table.

Dipping it fully in crimson cinnabar, he held his wrist suspended in the air. The brushstrokes flowed like Dragons and snakes as he swiftly wrote a complex Talismanic Incantation onto the paper.

"Buzz!"

As soon as the Talisman was completed, an almost imperceptible flash of golden light passed over it, signifying that the spiritual essence had been successfully attached.

The Great Master did not dare delay, quickly walking to the immobilized Seventeenth Concubine and carefully taking a strand of hair from her head.

He used the newly drawn Talisman paper to carefully wrap the hair, forming a small triangular packet, and immediately held it up to the candlelight to ignite it.

The Talisman packet quickly curled and carbonized in the flames, but instead of the choking smoke produced by burning ordinary objects, it emitted a strange scent of sandalwood mixed with herbal ash.

The Great Master waited patiently until the Talisman packet was completely reduced to ash, all of it falling onto the tabletop.

He carefully swept all the ashes into a prepared white porcelain bowl containing half a bowl of clear well water.

The ashes did not dissolve in the water; instead, they slowly spun and sank as if they had a life of their own.

The Great Master lifted the porcelain bowl with both hands, presented it to Lu Xuan, and said in a deep voice.

"Commander, if someone drinks this bowl of 'Source Tracing Talisman Water,' they will be able to glimpse the deceased's final memories."

Steward Wu, who had been shrinking in the corner and trying to minimize his presence, watched the Great Master's entire ritual and clearly heard every word about "glimpsing memories."

The more he watched, the more alarmed he became; the more he listened, the more terrified he grew!

If the Commander truly drank that bowl of Talisman Water and saw the Seventeenth Concubine's dying memories... then his crime of abusing and murdering the mother and daughter, and disposing of their bodies to silence them, would surely be exposed!

At that point, he would definitely die without a burial place!

Immense fear instantly overwhelmed Steward Wu's reason, and a frantic idea formed in his mind—he must stop this!

At the very least, he couldn't let anyone else drink it!

Just as Deputy Officer Mo and the others looked at the clear water with floating ashes, showing hesitation and difficulty.

Steward Wu suddenly rushed out from the corner, knelt down with a "thump" in front of Lu Xuan, and tearfully pleaded: "Commander! Let this subordinate drink it!"

He raised a face streaked with tears and snot, acting utterly remorseful: "Failing to look after the Seventeenth Concubine and Young Miss Qing was my dereliction of duty, a crime worthy of ten thousand deaths!"

"I beg the Commander to give this subordinate a chance to atone for my mistakes by performing a meritorious service. Let me bear the suffering of this... this Talisman Water and uncover the truth!"

As long as he drank the Talisman Water, whether it was real or fake, whether he saw memories or saw nothing at all, it would all be up to his word!

When Deputy Officer Mo saw that it was Steward Wu, that unfortunate soul, who volunteered to take the fall again, his heart immediately relaxed, and he even felt a little schadenfreude.

He secretly curled his lip, rejoicing inwardly: This concoction mixed with dead people's hair ash—whoever wants to drink it can drink it, as long as I don't have to.

Before Deputy Officer Mo could fully relax, three words exploded like thunder in his ear: "You drink it!"

Without a doubt, Deputy Officer Mo's face instantly collapsed, his expression twisted as if he had swallowed a live fly, looking worse than if his parents had died.

Then, under Lu Xuan's gaze, he tremblingly accepted the bowl of Talisman Water floating with grayish-black residue.

Looking at the murky liquid in the bowl and smelling the strange odor, Deputy Officer Mo's stomach churned violently.

But military orders were absolute; he closed his eyes, tilted his head back, and "glug-glugged" the entire bowl of Talisman Water down!

Seeing his plan fail and his last hope dashed, Steward Wu, standing nearby, instantly felt all the strength drain from his body, and he slumped to the ground with a "thump," his face ashen and his mind reeling.

But at this moment, no one paid attention to his loss of composure.

Lu Xuan and the Great Master both stared intently at Deputy Officer Mo.

Deputy Officer Mo, who had just drunk the Talisman Water, had his eyes tightly closed, his body first trembling violently, and then wisps of thin white Qi began to steam out from the pores all over his body!

Following this, Deputy Officer Mo's expression began to change rapidly, rotating like a revolving lantern.

First was extreme terror, his pupils frantically shaking beneath his eyelids, followed by immense shame and indignation, his lips tightly clamped shut.

Finally, it turned into an overwhelming, helpless rage, and his entire face twisted... That expression was exactly the most genuine and tragic emotion displayed by a frail woman when facing an unstoppable atrocity!

The next moment, Deputy Officer Mo abruptly opened his eyes, the depths of his pupils still holding incredible shock and an unspeakable, empathetic rage.

He opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to immediately report the horrifying truth he had "seen" to Lu Xuan.

However—

"Nobody move!"

A hoarse, frantic roar interrupted Deputy Officer Mo!

Steward Wu, who had been slumped on the ground like a dead dog, suddenly sprang up and attacked!

He darted to Deputy Officer Mo's side with extraordinary speed, and while Deputy Officer Mo was still unsettled, he snatched the pistol from his waist!

Next, he flashed behind Lu Xuan, pressing the cold muzzle tightly against Lu Xuan's temple, and roared menacingly at everyone.

"No one move! Move again, and I'll shoot this bastard dead!"

Deputy Officer Mo had just broken free from the appalling memory. Seeing that Steward Wu dared to hold the Commander hostage, he was instantly furious, his eyes splitting with rage!

"You beast, how dare you! Release the Commander immediately, or I will ensure you die without a burial place!"

The Great Master nearby was also startled by the sudden turn of events. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the Talisman hidden in his sleeve, yet, fearing retaliation, he dared not act rashly.

"Commander!" Deputy Officer Mo ignored the danger, pointed at Steward Wu, and fiercely roared out everything he had seen in the Talisman Water.

"It was this damned beast! He murdered the Seventeenth Concubine and Young Miss Qing!"

"This beast poisoned their food and drink! The Seventeenth Concubine was the first to fall victim to him, and this swine used it to coerce and humiliate her, threatening her not to speak out!"

"Later... later Young Miss Qing realized something was wrong, came to look for her mother, and stumbled upon his wicked deed!

This utterly depraved beast, fearing exposure, decided to go all the way and... and drugged Young Miss Qing as well!

Then... then he threw the mother and daughter into the well, fabricating the appearance of suicide!"

This shocking truth was publicly revealed, and even the Great Master's gaze toward Steward Wu was filled with shock and contempt.

Steward Wu, his crime exposed, acted like a madman, pressing the gun barrel harder against Lu Xuan's temple, and screamed wildly: "Shut up! You shut up! Say one more word, and I'll blow this trash's brains out right now!"

Just as Steward Wu's entire attention was focused on scolding Deputy Officer Mo, and the muzzle slightly deviated due to his agitation.

Lu Xuan moved!

His right hand shot up like lightning, the force astonishing, but Lu Xuan did not try to seize the gun.

Instead, he accurately grabbed Steward Wu's gun-holding wrist, forcefully turning the muzzle to point it at Deputy Officer Mo nearby!

The entire process was completed in a flash, without the slightest hesitation.

"Bang!"

The gunshot rang out! The bullet whistled toward Deputy Officer Mo's palm!

Everyone present was stunned by this sudden turn of events.

However, the expected scene of blood and gore did not materialize.

Only a "clang" was heard, like metal striking metal!

In front of Deputy Officer Mo's palm, a faint, almost imperceptible reddish halo shimmered into existence.

The hot bullet seemed to hit an invisible steel barrier, instantly deforming under the impact, and dropped onto the bluestone slab with a "clatter."

Deputy Officer Mo's hand was completely unharmed!

It really worked!

A sharp light flashed in Lu Xuan's eyes; the Yang Flame Body Protection Talisman he had secretly slipped to Deputy Officer Mo earlier was now taking effect!

This Talisman could make a person impervious to blades and bullets, and resistant to water and fire, for a short time!

With his current cultivation at Earth Master Perfection, the spiritual power within his body was vast as the sea, and drawing such a powerful Talisman, despite its high consumption, was effortless for him.

In fact, before coming here, Lu Xuan had already blessed himself with various enhancement Talismans, including the Yang Flame Body Protection Talisman, the Immense Strength Talisman, the Swiftness Talisman, and others.

At this moment, he seemed to be held hostage, but in reality, he was merely putting on a show.

Lu Xuan's motivation for choosing Deputy Officer Mo to test the Yang Flame Body Protection Talisman was very simple.

Although the Talisman's effect was theoretically invulnerability, who knew if its practical application would be compromised?

If the description was exaggerated, wouldn't it be a waste if he tested it himself and got injured?

It was safest to find a reliable "target" to try it out.

Now it seemed the effect was remarkable, leaving Lu Xuan highly satisfied.

Just as Steward Wu was shocked to the point of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering by this unimaginable scene and hadn't yet recovered, Lu Xuan lightly shook the arm holding his wrist.

A powerful, irresistible force transmitted through, and Steward Wu was violently flung away, crashing heavily onto the ground in a perfect face-plant, the gun flying out of his hand.

"Pick up the gun!"

Hearing Lu Xuan's voice, Deputy Officer Mo, who understood instantly, quickly picked up the pistol from the ground, his eyes blazing with fierce intent as old and new hatred surged in his heart.

"You swine, you beast! I'll shoot you dead!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled the trigger!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Over a dozen shots rang out consecutively, the bullets pouring into Steward Wu's body, causing him to convulse violently before dying instantly, his blood immediately staining the ground red.

The Great Master nearby witnessed this bloody scene. Although he knew Steward Wu deserved his fate, he couldn't help but feel pity, silently closed his eyes, and softly chanted a Daoist epithet.

"Guards!" Deputy Officer Mo put away his gun and commanded sternly, "Drag this beast's body out and burn it! Burn it completely!"

He was being cautious, having experienced the eerie events of a corpse rising and seeking vengeance tonight.

Deputy Officer Mo was afraid that Steward Wu might turn into a vengeful spirit after death and come back to haunt him, so he decided to burn the body thoroughly to eliminate future trouble!

When the Great Master opened his eyes again, he had restrained all his emotions.

He walked up to Deputy Officer Mo, took the right hand Deputy Officer Mo had used to block the bullet, and examined it closely—the skin on the palm was completely intact, without even a trace of redness!

"You..." A hint of unbelievable astonishment flashed in the Great Master's eyes. He seemed to have realized a possibility and suddenly spoke, his voice carrying a subtle trace of excitement.

"Deputy Officer Mo, do you... happen to be carrying a protective Talisman bestowed by a powerful person?"

"Protective Talisman?" Deputy Officer Mo himself was wondering why he was unharmed. At this mention, he suddenly remembered that a few hours ago, the Commander had inexplicably handed him a folded triangular Talisman packet.

He quickly retrieved it from his inner pocket and presented it to the Great Master.

"Huh? That's strange," Deputy Officer Mo looked at the Talisman packet in his hand, full of confusion.

"The Commander gave me this Talisman not long ago. I remember clearly that it was bright cinnabar red before, so why... why did it suddenly turn a dusty gray color?"

"Just as I thought!" The Great Master was deeply shaken, confirming his suspicion.

He suddenly looked up, his gaze burning as he stared at Lu Xuan, who stood beside him with his hands behind his back, acting as if nothing had happened.

Lu Xuan merely waved his hand dismissively, his tone casual, as if discussing some insignificant trinket.

"I don't know where I picked up that thing; it was an eyesore, and I couldn't be bothered with it, so I casually gave it to the Adjutant."

Lu Xuan did not wish to elaborate further and immediately ordered: "Enough. You handle the aftermath here cleanly. Deal with the corpses as you see fit. Tomorrow morning, the entire army will assemble at General Mountain."

As for the Seventeenth Concubine, this little vengeful spirit, Lu Xuan had no intention of destroying her. She could be considered lucky; she was the first ghost to survive at Lu Xuan's hands!
