The unforeseen took her completely by surprise.
Su Li had not expected the small stone bead to disappear between her fingers so suddenly; the next second, she felt a warm sensation in her consciousness.
The stone bead had actually embedded itself into her soul, and no matter how hard Su Li tried, she couldn’t pry it out.
Despite not understanding the intricacies of this object, Su Li couldn’t bring herself to feel joy, even though she knew it was sothing valuable.
Her disdain for the culprit behind all this only intensified.
"Hmph, giving you a few more monts of life is already too good for your ugly face."
In just a few breaths, Su Li appeared in front of "Nangong Dao."
"Nangong Dao" thought he had finally escaped the grasp of the female ghost, seeing that he was already disintegrating by half, desperately maintaining his form; he wished he could devour her whole.
After expending his greatest and most secretive trump card, at last, the figure of the female ghost was nowhere to be seen behind him.
"Nangong Dao" had a faint realization that it was the Divine Pearl that allowed him to wake up in this world once more.
"Divine Pearl" was the na he gave to that bead, even after spending a lifeti, he still couldn’t figure out what it was.
But that didn’t delay his use of it to climb to the peak of his life.
Inside was a vast treasure trove; he could only touch the outermost corner, a wealth of Xuanxue knowledge that allowed him to leap into fa as a master, and he possessed many other techniques as well.
But now...
"Nangong Dao" was crouching in a dark corner, his mind filled with surging hatred, twisting even the air around him.
He was so preoccupied with his fury that he neglected his own condition.
By the ti he realized sothing was wrong, his lower body had already vanished.
His eyes were wide with fury, his teeth chattering as he watched his soul turn into tiny points of light, dispersing without a trace with the passing wind.
When Su Li caught up, she saw "Nangong Dao’s" little eyes bulge to the extre, his mouth silently screaming as his eyes conveyed a desperate plea, even reaching out in Su Li’s direction for help.
"Save , I can do anything for you... I can even beco your Ghost Servant..."
His quivering lips barely managed to convey his ssage.
Su Li: "..." Had he forgotten that she, too, was the Evil Ghost that wanted him dead?
"Stop staring, you ugly fuck, you don’t deserve to ask for anything looking like that."
Su Li didn’t offer even a shred of kindness to "Nangong Dao" in his last monts, directly stabbing him at his most humiliating point.
It’s often the case that people are most concerned with what they lack.
Who would have known that what "Nangong Dao" cared about the most was his exceedingly average appearance, lacking a domineering presence, which led him to transform himself into an incredibly handso man in his last life?
Even in this life, the first burst of Spiritual Power he had cultivated was mostly used to modify his acquired skin.
Su Li didn’t even have ti to slap the detestable "Nangong Dao" before his soul disintegrated entirely.
Perhaps even "Nangong Dao" himself hadn’t imagined that the consequence of using his last resort, the "Divine Pearl," would be more than he could bear.
Su Li felt a stifling frustration stuck in her throat, making her imnsely uncomfortable.
She didn’t even get to vent her fury on the mastermind before he got his just deserts and not even half a soul fragnt remained.
Because of that stone bead, Su Li couldn’t find a ghost to unleash her anger on.
It was just... infuriating...
She moodily returned to Mingrui University, and at the main entrance of the school, the unlucky fellow was nowhere to be seen.
While Su Li was chasing "Nangong Dao," the unfortunate soul had passed out on the ground and was probably taken to the infirmary by now.
The original owner’s enemy had been eliminated, so Su Li had no longer intended to linger around the hapless egg.
Sure enough, her mood was very bad.
At this ti, a strange woman appeared in the school, panic-stricken and wandering aimlessly across the campus.
When kind-hearted students stepped forward wanting to help, but when they asked her what was wrong, she rely shook her head, tears streaming down, silent and unresponsive.
She seed to be looking for soone, or perhaps searching for sothing.
If students asked too many questions, she would turn away with a distressed look and flee.
This strange woman also had a habit of darting into the more secluded areas of the school, which eventually led to students avoiding her altogether.
-------------
Shu Ya had been wandering Mingrui University for two or three days now, not having eaten a bite of food during this ti. When she could no longer stand the hunger, she would cup her hands under the faucet outside the restroom to drink a few mouthfuls of water.
There was no ti left, ti was running out.
The baby’s presence was clearly felt here, why can’t it be found?
She had searched every corner of Mingrui University, including those places brimming with yin energy at night.
There was indeed sothing there, but it was not what she was looking for.
The baby had said that person was very powerful, extrely powerful... she might surely be able to help them.
Su Li, however, had no idea soone was searching for her, sitting attentively in the old professor’s lecture.
Live as long as you learn, as long as you beco a ghost, the steps of learning must not stop.
She really was fantastic!!!
Perhaps Shu Ya really had a fated connection with Su Li.
On her third day wandering the campus, she finally encountered Su Li.
If Su Li had been unwilling, Shu Ya would never have found her, but Su Li still had a profound impression of the Little Ghost Baby’s mother.
With just one glance, she knew that sothing had happened to the Little Ghost Baby.
She sighed deeply, recalling the Little Ghost Baby’s soft, tender smile, and her step to leave suddenly paused.
Shu Ya stood desperately under the shade of a tree, collapsing to the ground, her face buried in her palms, teardrops seeping through her fingers.
"Mama’s useless, can’t save you..."
The next mont she raised her head, her eyes flashed with determination, "But don’t be scared, baby, mama won’t let those who hurt you get away with it."
She stood up, tidied her ssy hair, and when she stepped out again, all traces of panic and disarray had vanished.
She had beco again the capable, strong woman in charge of a huge publicly listed corporation.
From that mont on, she had no vulnerabilities, she would be unbreakable.
"What happened to Little Treasure?" Shu Ya, expressionless and sitting upright with eyes closed, suddenly heard a refined female voice by her ear.
She opened her eyes in shock.
Because of her vigorous movent, she didn’t realize that she was sitting in a speeding car, and her head banged against the roof of the car.
The worried driver asked from the front, "President Shu..."
Shu Ya quickly subdued the expression on her face, repressing the turbulence within her, and said indifferently, "It’s nothing, keep driving."
Despite her acted calm, her trembling hands betrayed her unstable emotions.
She sat down slowly but could not help glancing incessantly at the seat cushion beside her.
Though it was clearly empty, it seed as if soone was slowly sitting down, the cushion dipping inwards.
