The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  "But...but if we go up there, it'll be difficult for us to come back down again." Tao Zi really hoped that Helian Wei Wei would abandon the idea of going upstairs. At least, we're standing on the ground downstairs, so we can simply run away to escape if anything horrifying happens. Where can we flee if we go up?

  After hearing this, Helian Wei Wei stopped and replied, "I charge by night, and an extra fee would be needed for each appearance. Of course, you can also choose to pause the mission, but you will face two consequences. Firstly, the evil spirits will possess you in half an hour at 12 p.m. again. Secondly, you'll have to ask me for my service again, and the fee will be double. Nevertheless, I think you would be very concerned about the first problem."

  Tao Zi was really troubled by the first outcome, as she could no longer go on like this, not even for another day. After she was possessed every day, she would wake up in the morning without knowing what she did last night, where she went, or even who she met.

  "Don't stop, let's go up." Tao Zi gripped her hand tight and finally made up her mind.

  Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue continued forward, but Tao Zi was absolutely stricken with fear. She suggested in a raspy voice, "Can I walk between the two of you? The lady boss should not be afraid of these dirty things as she knows how to exorcise them. Can you let your assistant walk behind me instead?"

  Baili Jia Jue raised his eyebrows, as a glimpse of cold menace glimmered in the bottom of his dark, profound eyes.

  Tao Zi did not know that the look would be even more terrifying than any of the evil spirits here.

  The devil's wrath had always been elegant and blood-curdling.

  Helian Wei Wei took a look at the Baili Jia Jue and said, "Go to the back, we must put customers first."

  "Certainly, my beautiful master." His Highness seemed to be addicted to this game. He bit Helian Wei Wei's ear lightly, before putting her down and walking to the end of the line.

  Tao Zi felt much safer and calmer with Baili Jia Jue behind her and Helian Wei Wei at the front. Even if there was any danger, her risk of peril would be the lowest among them.

  As the whole research building was too quiet, the sound of their footsteps seemed to reverberate deafeningly through the entire floor.

  The second floor was gloomier than the first floor, but it was not as humid.

  When Tao Zi finally relaxed a little, she heard Helian Wei Wei say, "Miss Tao Zi, you really don't know who the evil spirit is?"

  Tao Zi's eyes flickered feebly as she replied, "I saw it before but we did not talk. After all, it's not our professor, but the professor's family member."

  "Professor's family member?" Helian Wei Wei snickered quietly and growled, "I hate people who lie."

  Tao Zi was a little upset when she heard the remark. "Lady boss, you're here to catch ghosts, not to pry into other people's privacy."

  "There's always a reason for a ghost to haunt a human." Helian Wei Wei looked up at her and said, "Do you understand? She won't be here for no reason, or even abandon her chance to be reincarnated, just to possess you. You've known her since the beginning, haven't you? Otherwise, you address it as a 'she' when we first talked about it."

  Tao Zi froze in astonishment. Then, she reluctantly replied, "Yes, I do know her, but I don't understand why she keeps haunting me, I'm not the one that killed her."

  "The reason she keeps haunting you…" Helian Wei Wei looked at Tao Zi, and noticed that the prayer beads that were wrapped around her reflected a faint Light of Buddha when they moved. "It's because you have a ghost contract. You have made a contract with her, but you didn't know it was her when you agreed to it. However, in the realms of the living and the dead, as long as one party made a wish and the other agreed to it, the contract between them would be finalized."

  Tao Zi was completely befuddled as she asked, "What contract? I have never meddled with those supernatural things, I don't even have an Ouija Board..." Suddenly, Tao Zi seemed to realize something and said, "I did make a wish, but I just said it casually and I didn't do anything at that time. When I passed through the school building and met my senior, I..."

  "You want his attention or to put it bluntly, you want him." Helian Wei Wei nonchalantly continued, "He must be quite outstanding and already have a girlfriend, but you still felt displeased. You always feel that the girl is not worthy, so you made a wish. After that, you did get the boy, but you will lose yourself at night. Even he has begun to be suspicious of you, isn't it?"

  Tao Zi's eyes quivered in surprise. "How do you know?"

  "I can see it from your character and the look in your eyes." Helian Wei Wei chuckled and added, "As for the others, I simply deduced them from your previous behavior, such as why you're so afraid of this female ghost."

  Tao Zi grabbed at her long hair in fear, although her ashen pale face seemed gentle and pure. "She wants to kill me and replace me! Since you've already known so much, why didn't you exorcise her back right away?"

  "I will surely deal with her." Helian Wei Wei smiled again menacingly and added, "Since you don't want to tell me about it, I'll let her tell me in person."

  After saying this, a silent breeze brushed against them, causing Helian Wei Wei's kasaya to flutter momentarily. Then, a shadowy figure gradually emerged behind Tao Zi.

  When she saw the silhouette, Tao Zi let out a gasp of horror, as she fell heavily onto the ground in shock. Her fingers trembled violently, as she shuffled anxiously backward, trying to distance herself from the harrowing apparition.

  The figure was about fifty years old, and would be about the age of Helian Wei Wei's mother if she was alive.

  She intensely glared at Tao Zi with venomous contempt, as if she was staring at a pile of foul garbage. A wispy black aura was emanating from her body, while her face had lost its youthful look, appearing gaunt and dark. When she opened her mouth, it revealed a Stygian, gaping pit that emitted an eerie, blood-curdling sound.

  That was the language of the ghost that normal humans could not understand.

  When Helian Wei Wei waved her kasaya again, instantly changing the noise into a comprehensible language. "I treated you so well because I was utterly deceived by you. I knew that studying alone in a foreign land is not an easy task for a lady, so I boiled soup for you when you were sick, and even requested my Old Tan to take care of you well. However, you repaid my kindness with evil cruelty. It's disgusting enough that you slept with my husband, but you even dared to call me while doing it, to let me listen...listen to both of you…"

  The figure could not continue on. Her eyes were menacingly cold and poisoned with blazing spite. " Fortunately, God was on my side, as I overheard you making a wish that you want to steal someone else's husband. Well, I shall fulfill your wretched d.e.s.i.r.e! You like to sleep with older men, right? I will make sure you sleep with one every day!"

  Chapter 1035 - Who, Who Are You

  When she finished speaking…

  The entire second floor of the research building was immediately filled with thick black fog!

  The shrouding fog was created because the aura of resentment was too overwhelming, thus coalescing and condensing her intense hatred.

  Tao Zi's eyes widened roundly in horror. She instantly turned around and ran toward the stairway, so overcome with fear that she dared not take a glance behind her.

  However, no matter how far she fled, she could not reach the first floor.

  When she stopped, she realized that she had returned to her original spot. The sign with the words 'second floor' was smudged with scarlet blood.

  Tao Zi was so horrified that she broke down completely. Then, she stared at Helian Wei Wei and yelled roaringly, "I'm paying you money, you should exorcise her quickly!"

  When Helian Wei Wei heard it, she merely raised her eyebrows and lifted the prayer beads in her hand.

  In the blink of an eye, the shadowy figure seemed to be trapped by something. She glared at Helian Wei Wei with a murderous gaze and threatened, "I will kill anyon
e that stops me from having my revenge! I can see that you're still young so I don't want to kill you, but don't force me to take your life!"

  "You can't have an act of fulfilling revenge like this." Helian Wei Wei's words were always unexpected.

  The figure paused for a while, before breaking into sinister laughter. "In that case, how should I have my revenge? Tell me? Just because she's young and pretended to be pitiful, she kept taking advantage of my kindness. Now that I am dead, I can finally have my revenge. I must let her taste bitter, excruciating pain!"

  "I won't let you kill her," Helian Wei Wei merely said.

  Tears of blood streamed from the shadowy figure's eyes and cascaded down her hollow cheeks, as she was extremely furious from being immobilized. She scowled at Tao Zi like a psycho, seemingly wanting to asphyxiate the life out of her.

  She knew that her time was running out.

  After today, she might never be able to have her revenge.

  Grim Reaper would not keep allowing her to chain these dark spirits here.

  When the time came, she would be utterly destroyed into nothingness. She had already been hiding for several days, she could not evade them any longer.

  She wanted to sacrifice her life to kill the woman. No matter what, she must kill the wretched homewrecker. Even if she disappeared from the world forever, she would not have an ounce of regret.

  The figure knew that Helian Wei Wei could not be defeated. So, she immediately turned around and lunged at Baili Jia Jue!

  The germaphobic young man seems to be a young master from a stellar family background.

  Moreover, he looks a little thin and most importantly, I can't sense any spiritual aura from him.

  If I possessed an ordinary human like him, the exorcist wouldn't be able to do anything to me!.

  Unfortunately, the figure did not know that the man that she was aiming for was in fact, not ordinary. He merely looked ordinary as his exclusive soul with him. Thus, he could have the most perfect camouflage to conceal all his demonic aura.

  When the figure pounced at Baili Jia Jue, Tao Zi was so shocked that her face turned ghastly pale. She was afraid that Baili Jia Jue would be possessed by the ghost.

  Helian Wei Wei's eyes promptly narrowed, as her expression changed in an instant. She pushed her little short leg and leaped after the figure at supersonic speed. Unfortunately, she was slower and her legs were shorter after she became smaller. In addition, the shadowy figure was closer to Baili Jia Jue, so it was impossible for her to catch up with her.

  As the shadowy figure bared her rotten teeth and sharp claws, her gaunt face was marred with crimson bloodstains. Anyone who saw the scene would surely buckle in fear.

  However, Baili Jia Jue merely stood quietly in the dark corner and stared coldly at the lunging silhouette.

  The figure chuckled to herself when she saw Baili Jia Jue not moving an inch. I should've possessed this man from the very beginning, so I wouldn't have to waste so much effort.

  However, when she extended her hand, preparing to hold him, she suddenly glimpsed a flash in front of her eyes.

  The man instantly disappeared from her field of vision at an unbelievable speed!

  The figure was completely astonished, as she unconsciously turned her head around.

  The man who was previously in front of her was crossing his arms while leaning against the wall. Moreover, he was leisurely looking at her with an indifferent gaze.

  And behind him are... are!

  Countless demons are emerging from behind him!

  "W-who...who are you people?" The figure broke out in a cold sweat. How can this be an ordinary human? Which ordinary human has the ability to make the demons obey his commands?

  The figure still could not feel the Baili Jia Jue's demonic aura, but she had already realized that she must not provoke the man in front of her.

  There was no time to prepare for her escape. She helplessly watched as Baili Jia Jue merely raised his eyelids, without even lifting his hand. Instantly, she felt an excruciating pain, as if blood was gushing from every inch of her ghostly body.

  "Jue, stop!" Helian Wei Wei blocked Baili Jia Jue and looked into his eyes. "I'll deal with this."

  Baili Jia Jue stopped his attack and chuckled. Then, he carried her up, the murderous glare in his indulgent eyes had completely evaporated. His thin lips were close to Helian Wei Wei's ears, and his voice was low and pleasant as he uttered, "What can I do, my master. I can't refuse your request any longer."

  Can you stop whispering into my ears constantly! Helian Wei Wei's face was flushed red, slightly upset that she was too small to resist him. She could only let His Highness make a fool of herself, as she turned to the figure and said, "It's not worthwhile to give up your chances of reincarnation for a mistress. I've investigated this young lady's living habits. Someone just sent me a message, saying that she's good at using her advantages to steal the men who are older than her. However, she would deliberately select certain men only. Just like your Old Tan, he instantly fell for her, without any hesitation. This kind of thing always takes two to tango. You only seek revenge from the mistress, how can you forget about your Old Tan?"

  "I can't get near him!" The figure said with crimson eyes that were besmirched with fury. "He asked someone to burn a prayer paper with the date of my birth and four pillars of destiny. He even asked for a Buddha Jade for protection, I can't do anything to him at all."

  Helian Wei Wei looked at her, and after a while, she said with a smile, "This is the correct attitude for revenge, you must not let anyone go."

  Tao Zi could not believe what she had heard. Didn't I hire that kid to catch the ghost for me?

  Why does she instigate an old woman ghost to take revenge?

  "Hey, is something wrong with you? I'm the one that paid money to hire you, not her!" Tao Zi was angry and scared. She figured that Helian Wei Wei would not probably help her, so she turned around and looked at the Baili Jia Jue, pleading. "Please, elder brother. I beg you, please help me."

  Tears were flowing from her eyes as she uttered the words, as if trying to invoke sympathy from Baili Jia Jue.

  Unexpectedly, Baili Jia Jue merely responded with a cold, menacing smirk, "If you let me hear the word 'elder brother' from your mouth again, I will cut your tongue off!"

  This human's mind is completely contaminated.

  How dare she call me 'elder brother'?

  Tao Zi froze, seemingly fl.u.s.tered that her trick was useless, as she merely stood there unmovingly with tears in her eyes.

  Chapter 1036 - Wei Wei Was Never Kind

  Helian Wei Wei merely glanced at Tao Zi with the same attitude as before, neither too warm nor too cold. "My store is very fair in our services. I accepted your order to catch the ghosts only. As for what you do in the future, it's none of our business. "

  "In that case, why haven't you done it yet?" Tao Zi clenched both of her hands into fists and yelled.

  Helian Wei Wei glanced at her with obvious mockery, saying, "I'll do it soon, and I will let you witness the entire process."

  Then, Helian Wei Wei gazed at the figure filled with hatred and said, "It's clear that you can't beat us now. If you make a move, you'll only be reduced to ashes. I will give you two options. You can fight against me, or accept my help to exact revenge and obey my order to be expiated immediately."

  "Help me to exact revenge?" The figure knew that she was no match for Helian Wei Wei, while the man alone could turn her into a puddle of blood in an instant. He did not move at all just now, and could completely suppress her with his aura. Even Grim Reaper from Hell had never given her that feeling. However, she was not convinced. "How can you help me exact revenge? Humans always side with their kind, it's impossible for them to help ghosts."

  Helian Wei Wei nodded and replied calmly, "That is the norm, but you're a special exception. Personally, I'm not very particular about who's good or evil. Of course, it's excusable that you don't believe me. Why don't I tell you h
ow I'm going to help you exact revenge, and see if you're satisfied with it? I have a record of who Miss Tao Zi slept with, which I've ordered someone to investigate about it. It was probably the first time when Miss Tao Zi had a relationship with your husband, Old Tan. They were accidentally captured by the hotel camera and the image was very clear. Furthermore, with a little help from internet technology, I can easily recover the voice messages that you said. In that case, we can expose Miss Tao Zi and Old Tan together, so that the entire school knows how deplorable they are. I can't guarantee you that the school will punish them, but rest assured. As long as they've done the act, I will punish them severely, without giving them a chance to return."

  She added, "Think about it. If you killed someone, not only you can't be reincarnated, no one would know what she had done even if she died. On the other hand, you were always treated by the school like you've gone bonkers. You merely did not handle the situation well at that time. If a man has a mistress, immediately kick that worthless piece of trash out of your life. There's no need to make a fuss, as it doesn't mean that you did nothing. After the scandal is exposed, the only thing that matters is that you feel content. Don't make a fuss or quarrel with her, a woman who's a mistress is simply not worth lowering your standard to meet them. She's a piece of trash! Also, the man who has a mistress is not worth your time and affection. If you're reincarnated, you deserve a much better man. Auntie, do you understand me?"

  The figure froze in surprise, as tears began to fall from her blood-red eyes.

  It's not that I was weak or afraid to divorce him.

  It's just that I have once wanted to spend my entire life with that person in this world.

  I was very reluctant.

  The man who had taken my hand from my father, led me to the priest, and put on a ring on my finger - had utterly betrayed me.

  The man who would hold my hand with a nervous look, even when a little thorn pricked my hand. When did it become so difficult and exhausting for him to come back home? When did our love fade so much that he had become blind to my feelings and pain?
