262: Chapter 262 Jiang Ling's Questioning
Stare—
Cui Yunxuan, Mo Xianglan, Xiao Ju, and even that Old Daoist Priest with blood at the corner of his mouth were all looking at Xiaoyue, who stood beside Qin Ge, with expressions of utter disbelief.
Is this insane?
This fair-skinned, beautiful maid in a black-and-white maid outfit—pretty and possessing the charm of a girl-next-door childhood sweetheart—hadn't even lifted a hand before sending Lin Yu, whose body was covered in golden light, flying backward with a shockwave.
He had even smashed the tempered glass to pieces!?
What kind of terrifying, monstrous strength was this?
"Young Master, I... I didn't do it on purpose."
Xiaoyue watched Lin Yu fly backward and cause the villa's courtyard wall to collapse. She nervously turned her head to look at Qin Ge, explaining in a panicked tone.
She was afraid Qin Ge would make her pay for the destroyed glass and the wall.
Qin Ge had a playful smile on his face. He shook his head and said, "No one said you did it intentionally."
Don't be fooled by how exceptionally well-behaved Xiaoyue was by his side, looking just like a maid.
One had to know that in Lin Yu's script, Xiaoyue's true name was Lady Moon Goddess!
She was the Lady Moon Goddess who would still serve as a powerful backer even when Lin Yu reached the Middle Stage of development!
Even Lin Yu's Master, Mysterious Mechanism Master, was no match for the Moon Goddess.
In fact, even Dantai Qingyue of the Bright Moon Sect had almost no possibility of placing a Seal on the Moon Goddess.
Xiaoyue certainly hadn't done it on purpose.
If she had, with Lin Yu's puny limbs, he would have been killed long ago.
However, even if she only stimulated her ghost Qi, that terrifying backlash was definitely not something Lin Yu could withstand!
Xiao Ju watched Lin Yu, who was slumped in the ruins and unable to get up again, and swallowed hard. "He wasn't shocked to death, was he? My Thunder Dragon Society is a law-abiding organization. If someone dies, our reputation will be affected."
"If all else fails, should we just drag Lin Yu away to feed the fish?"
Cui Yunxuan rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Let's go over and take a look!"
The group left the room together and headed to the front yard where Lin Yu had smashed the wall.
Just as they stepped out of the villa's entrance, Qin Ge saw Xu Shiyin walking over with Jiang Ling, who was wearing a yellow Daoist robe.
Xu Shiyin took the initiative to introduce Jiang Ling. "President Qin, Yunxuan, this is the current sole direct descendant of the Celestial Master Sect I mentioned to you on the phone—Great Master Jiang Ling!"
"Don't be fooled by Great Master Jiang's youth. She is a genuine descendant of the Celestial Master Sect. Her methods for exorcising evil are endless; she will definitely be able to wake Uncle Cui!"
Jiang Ling's whereabouts were a mystery; even Xu Shiyin hadn't known where she was.
She had only managed to contact Jiang Ling by asking her grandfather through her cousin.
Since it concerned the life and death of her best friend's father, she naturally couldn't worry about the conflicts with her Family elders.
Cui Yunxuan shook her head. "My dad is already fine. Before you arrived, Qin Ge helped exorcise the evil. However, Shiyin, I appreciate your kind intentions."
He's fine?
Xu Shiyin pursed her lips.
She had gone to so much trouble to find Jiang Ling, yet before the Great Master could even act, Qin Ge had already solved it?
Xu Shiyin's beautiful eyes drifted toward Qin Ge, feeling inwardly bewildered.
He has a powerful background, is handsome, and can fight.
And now, he even has methods to deal with evil spirits.
Is this guy Qin Ge omnipotent or something!?
Cough, cough, cough—
In the ruins of the wall, Lin Yu coughed violently, with bright red blood hanging from the corner of his mouth.
He stood up staggering, clutching his collapsed chest. One arm hung limp at his waist while the other pointed from afar at Qin Ge and Xiaoyue. He shouted angrily, "Qin Ge, you keep such a terrifying Ghostly creature; aren't you afraid of suffering a backlash!?"
Even now, Lin Yu's heart was still racing with fear.
With that palm strike just now, he had witnessed the horrifying ghost Qi hidden within Xiaoyue's body.
It was like a raging sea or a stormy tide—boundless.
Even he could not resist it. He had been repelled with overwhelming force and was now seriously injured.
What he found most unbelievable was that Xiaoyue was clearly a Ghostly creature.
Yet she could stand under the sun without relying on a Ghost Domain.
How utterly inconceivable!?
Even those immortal Ghostly creatures would be scorched by the blazing sun if they stood openly in its light; they needed to rely on a Ghost Domain to shield themselves!
One could only imagine to what terrifying extent the ghost Qi within the Ghostly creature Xiaoyue had reached!?
A Ghostly creature?
Jiang Ling narrowed her bright eyes, staring at Xiaoyue who stood beside Qin Ge.
Although the ghost Qi in Xiaoyue's body was hidden very deeply...
As the sole descendant of the Celestial Master Sect, her perception of ghost Qi was extremely sensitive.
She noticed Xiaoyue's abnormality at a single glance!
"Perfect. You say you are a descendant of the Celestial Master Sect; can you identify such a Great Ghost?"
Lin Yu clutched his collapsed chest and looked toward Jiang Ling, gritting his teeth. "Cui Leilong had evil spirits invading his entire body, and as soon as Qin Ge appeared with this Ghostly creature, he suppressed the evil with a wave of his hand."
"Do you think this matter can be separated from Qin Ge?"
Xu Shiyin turned her head and looked at the heavily injured Lin Yu, retorting crossly, "Who are you? Every word out of your mouth says this is related to Qin Ge. Are you trying to throw dirty water on him?"
What a joke!
If Qin Ge hadn't stepped in earlier, Cui Leilong would still be lying in the intensive care unit, relying entirely on oxygen to stay alive.
Once the machines stop, life goes to zero.
If it were someone else, they might use such a trick to capture Cui Yunxuan's heart.
But for Qin Ge, was there any need for that?
Wouldn't that be redundant?
Lin Yu narrowed his eyes. "My name is Lin Yu, and I am also the sole descendant of the Xuanji Sect!"
"Jiang Ling, if you are a member of the Celestial Master Sect, you should know that what I say is not false!"
"Xuanji Sect?" Jiang Ling's faint gaze moved away from Xiaoyue to focus on Lin Yu. She said coldly, "So, you are the sole closed-door disciple of the Mysterious Mechanism Master?"
"Exactly!" Lin Yu admitted without any hesitation, then said solemnly, "Let me ask you, is this woman beside Qin Ge a Ghostly creature!?"
Even if he was no match for Xiaoyue.
Even if he had already lost everything this time.
Even if he was at the end of his rope, he had to expose Qin Ge's true face.
Even if he couldn't win the beauty, he couldn't let Qin Ge continue his evildoings!
"A Ghostly creature?"
Jiang Ling gave a light snort and pointed at the blazing sun hanging overhead. "As a core disciple of the Mysterious Mechanism Master, have you ever seen a Ghostly creature that can appear under the blazing sun?"
"Even those immortal Ghostly creatures fear the blazing sun. Even if they appear during the day, they would hide within a Ghost Domain."
"Tell me then, if this woman is a Ghostly creature, how can she appear so openly under the blazing sun?"
Lin Yu bit his teeth. "That is because the ghost Qi in her body is like a raging sea; it is so astonishingly dense that it has exceeded the limits of ordinary Ghostly creatures, allowing her to appear openly under the sun."
Jiang Ling grabbed Xiaoyue's arm to examine her, then looked back at Lin Yu. "Even if a Ghostly creature manifests, it is formed from ghost Qi and is a type of spiritual body. This woman has a Physical Body, a body temperature, and even a pulse. Tell me, how can a living person like this be framed by you as a Ghostly creature?"
