The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate

Chapter 81: Hugh Resentment (Part 2)

??

Wei Shilai frowned and said, “I’ve already reported this matter to the imperial court and didn’t hide anything.”

It was obvious that Su Yanyu did not look at the report carefully. Now that something had happened, he wanted to pin the blame on Wei Shilai.

Su Yanyu’s eyes turned cold. “If you didn’t hide anything, why would the situation become like this? Why is the resentment so strong?”

Wei Shilai replied calmly. “The ones who killed them are their biological parents. They are indignant and can’t seek justice. How can they rest in peace?”

Wei Shilai looked at Kongyu and Kongling. “The more the masters tried to eliminate them, the stronger the resentment will be.”

Kongyu frowned and opened his mouth, but in the end, he remained silent.

When they first entered the village, it wasn’t like this.

Even if Su Yanyu was fooling around, there was nothing dangerous. However, it was only after they attacked the vengeful souls that something unusual happened.

Kongyu looked at the crowd and found a few familiar faces. Those were the ones the masters had eliminated, but they didn’t disappear. Instead, they came back stronger.

Looking at Kongyu and Kongling who had a shocked look on their faces, Su Yanyu knew that they couldn’t handle this situation. He was instantly furious. “Then what should we do? Are we going to get trapped here forever? I didn’t pay for you to come and do nothing.”

Su Yanyu lost his temper. He was a lord, and his status was noble. Kongyu and Kongli frowned, not daring to talk back.

Su Changde said with a fawning smile, “My Lord, drink some tea to calm down.”

Su Yanyu kicked him. “Get lost.”

“What a useless bunch! What’s the use of having you!”

Su Yanyu looked like he was angry at his servant, but everyone knew who he was referring to.

Kongyu’s face was dark. Kongling wanted to say something but hesitated. He could only choke down the anger in his heart.

After a while, Kongyu said, “I will find a way to seek help from the sect. As long as we find the source of this increasing resentment, we can tackle it.”

Kongyu and Kongling were psychics after all, so Su Yanyu did not dare to offend them too much. He said, “Then find the source.”

Kongyu nodded. “Lord Su, please wait here. Kongling and I are going to set up the formation.”

Wei Shilai retreated to the side in silence. When he looked up, he could only see the dark sky, as if it was covered by a layer of ink. He hoped that the sky would light up soon.

He did not know if Liu Sanniang could handle such a troublesome situation. If not, he hoped that Liu Sanniang would not interfere.

It took almost two hours for Kongyu and Kongling to set up the formation. Then a talisman floated up into the sky, heading in one direction, and Kong Kong and Kong Ling immediately followed it.

Su Yanyu did not feel safe if the masters weren’t around, so he followed them.

There were still many villagers shouting for help.

They had scratched their necks until they were bleeding, but they could not get their daughter off.

The women cried softly. “Let your father go. That’s your father.”

Facing their own daughters, they were terrified and angry at the same time. Why did they come back to haunt their parents after they died?

No matter what they did or how they begged for mercy, they couldn’t get their daughter to let them off.

Kongyu and Kongling arrived outside a house. They kicked open the door and found that there was no one inside. Su Changde shouted at the top of his lungs, “Whose house is this? Come out quickly!”

“This, this is Liu Laoda’s house.”

“It’s Liu Laoda who brought this disaster on us. He had seven daughters who he claimed to have died of illnesses. Everyone knows it’s not true. Masters, the source definitely comes from Liu Laoda’s house.”

Su Yanyu looked at Wei Shilai angrily. “Magistrate Wei, aren’t you going to explain?”

Wei Shilai said calmly, “This family indeed had seven daughters. Liu Laoda died abnormally. He was killed by his seven dead daughters.”

Kongyu frowned. “But why are the seven vengeful souls nowhere to be seen?”

Wei Shilai said, “Someone exorcized them.”

Tian Lan immediately said, “That’s impossible. It’s impossible for a vengeful soul to be exorcized. Do you know how much power it takes to exorcize a vengeful soul? Besides, exorcizing vengeful souls requires one to chant scriptures for seven days. The greater the vengeance, the less likely it is to be exorcized.”

It was obvious that the seven daughters had all been killed by their biological father. They were so vengeful that they came back to kill him. How could such vengeful souls be exorcized?

Wei Shilai looked at Kongyu. “Just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean others can’t.”

Kongling couldn’t help but ask. “Who is that person? Since he can exorcize the souls of this family, why doesn’t he exorcize all of them?”

Wei Shilai frowned. “It’s a girl. She’ll be here at dawn. You might get to see her.”

Su Yanyu cursed under his breath and did not speak. He did not expect things to turn out like this.

If he knew that this matter was so intractable, he would not have come here.

Su Yanyu looked at Kongyu and Kongling incredulously. Were these two really very capable? Kongyu and Kongling were extremely famous in the capital and were often invited by respectful officials. This was the first time Su Yanyu hired them, so he was still doubtful of their ability.

Kongyu and Kongling both had embarrassed looks on their faces.

This situation was really beyond their ability to handle.

Kongyu looked at Wei Shilai and said calmly, “If what Magistrate Wei said is true, then we just have to wait. There’s always someone better than us out there. We have to admit that our ability is not enough to tackle this situation.”

Kongling wanted to say something but thought better of it.

However, he did not believe that someone could exorcize so many vengeful souls at once.

The two of them planned to just wait and see. It wasn’t that they were swindlers, but that this situation was too serious. Su Yanyu suspected their ability because he didn’t know how serious the situation was.

Liu Sanniang was woken up by someone knocking on the door.

Before she could get out of her bed, Liu Erlang had already opened the door, shouting. “What an annoying prick! Who is knocking on the door in the middle of the night?”
