Detective Ghost Empress

313 You will regret this kindness your majesty ——Liu Hui Ying looked at Zhai Tianyu who still held some hope for this world that was in front of him and then laughed lightly, she just realised how different the two of them were from each other. She was like a void sucking all the light from the world and he was like a fool stretching his hands to help people thinking that there was still goodness in the world, spreading light as if it was his goddamn job.

” Did anyone tell you that you are too kind your esteemed majesty?” She told him with a raise of her brow as she reached out and held the edge of his sleeve that he proffered for her to take. ” There will be a time when you will regret being so kind to everyone, thinking that they deserve your help. One day you will surely change your views.”

” I don’t know whether or not I will regret this or not,” Zhai Tianyu spoke as they continued to walk towards the tomb that was built over Liu Fei Fei’s grave. “I just hope that I will never judge a person who can be of use to me and who cannot be of any use. If I do then I am sure that I will walk down a path that I want to avoid, once I made the mistake of being distrustful towards an innocent woman, the guilt is something that I will have to carry for the rest of my life. I don’t want to do that again.”

Liu Hui Ying did not say anything, though she blamed Zhai Tianyu for her situation but now that she was spending her time in this place she realised that something was very off this place. What was more there seemed to be traces of black magic inside the body of this woman whose body she was occupying, most probably —— Zhai Tianyu was not even the man behind the killing of this woman, if anything he was used as a stepping stone.

” You don’t have to blame yourself too much, your esteemed majesty,” she said, Though she did not say the truth, she still looked at Zhai Tianyu while walking beside him. ” There are some things that appear to be something else but the truth behind them is completely different.”

” What——-” Zhai Tianyu opened his mouth to ask what Liu Hui Ying meant by this but then suddenly his attention was caught by the crowd that was surrounding the tomb of Liu Fei Fei. He frowned, the matter that he needed to ask Liu Hui Ying was long forgotten as he looked at the hushed crowd that was in front of him.

” What’s going on?” he asked as he looked at the crowd in front of him but no one seemed to have heard him which caused his brows to furrow even more. Why were they all acting as if they couldn’t hear him?

Second Master Liu did not expect a hold-up like this, he immediately came rushing in front of Liu Hui Ying and Zhai Tianyu as he shouted at the crowd, “What’s with this hold-up? What are you all doing? Why are you all standing here like mutes? Can you not see that his majesty has come here?”

As soon as Second Master Liu raised his voice, the people who were standing in front of the tomb immediately woke up from their daze they all turned to look at Second Master Liu with their eyes flickering as if they were thinking about something, wanting to tell him something but then they all dropped their gazes decisively coming to a conclusion that they did not want to say anything.

.....

” Dear me, what are you doing ?”Second Master Liu’s brows furrowed as he walked towards the tomb. His face however went slack when he saw what was in front of him, his face was pale and soon contorted in rage as he turned to look at the people who were standing behind him. ” Who …Who was it? Who did this?”

He asked while trembling with rage, his face was turning to the shade of a purple radish that has been badly burned by the sun as he glared at the people who were standing behind him. But neither of them spoke, they all simply stood in their spots with their heads lowered, not even willing to raise their eyes and take a look at Second Master Liu who was the spitting image of the God of thunder at the very moment.

Liu Hui Ying exchanged a glance with Zhai Tianyu who was frowning, the two of them took a few steps ahead of them as they walked past the crowd that was standing on the sides.

” Stop it,” they heard Liu Dong Ming tell Second Master Liu who was yelling at the top of his lungs. His head was bowed as he looked at something at his feet. ” No one from our family will dare to do this, and if they did then they better be prepared for what is coming for them.” As he spoke he turned to look at the people who were standing behind him, his eyes were dark and gloomy causing the members of the Liu family to gulp simultaneously as they all shook their heads refusing that they did not have any hand in this matter.

‘What are they doing?’ Liu Hui Ying asked in her head as she turned to look at the crowd that was in front of her. But then her answer was soon answered as she walked past the crowd and then came to stand in front of the tomb that was made for Liu Fei Fei, as soon as her gaze fell on the tomb, she clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

Not in anger but in a desperate attempt of stopping her sister who surged at her surface with fury upon seeing what was lying in front of the tomb of Liu Fei Fei.
