There was a nagging doubt in Song Ci’s mind. Why do some people love to cause a disturbance in the middle of the night? Isn’t it the perfect time to be sleeping when the moon is shining high up in the sky?

When he opened the door, his sleepiness completely dissipated. Although he was resentful, he cast all his discontent to the back of his mind when he saw so many people at the door. He rushed forward to make inquiries.

He grabbed one of the servants and asked, “What happened?”

“Madam suddenly rushed into Missy’s room with a knife in the middle of the night. They are still at it now…” The servant blabbed. The person next to him elbowed him. “Don’t go shooting your mouth off!”

Song Ci paid them no mind and pushed his way through the crowd. Just as he made it to the front row, he heard the woman shouting again. “Why is someone like you still in the human world? You should just go to hell!”

Then, screams rang out and the stench of blood permeated the air. Song Ci hurriedly pushed aside the person before him and saw a disheveled woman with a savage expression holding a cleaver in each of her hands. One of it was stained with fresh blood.

Mirror Old Man was standing opposite the woman. He seemed to have rushed out in a hurry. He did not even have time to put on his shoes and had come running barefoot. There was a slash on his left shoulder and blood was gushing out of it. His arms were spread out as if protecting the person behind him.

There was a young maiden behind him with her head lowered. She was silent.

Song Ci figured that this maiden was likely Feng Yingqiu, while the one with the cleavers should be Feng Changyue’s wife.

Mirror Old Man ignored the injury on his shoulder and told the servants at the sides. “This person is possessed. Hold her down!”

The servants wanted to step forward on hearing that, but when they saw the woman swinging the cleavers wildly, not a single one of them dared to approach. The woman pointed at Mirror Old Man and said, “Get lost! This has nothing to do with you! “

Mirror Old Man retorted, “You crazy woman. If you dare to touch her today, I’ll kill you!” 

Song Ci was perplexed. He could not understand what relationship Mirror Old Man had with Feng Yingqiu for him to be this protective.

By this time, Feng Changyue had hurried over. He heard what Mirror Old Man said and hurriedly stood between them. Waving his hands, he said. “Jing Daozhang,1 please don’t act rashly. I was the one who told my wife that Qiu-er might be possessed by evil spirits. This happened all because she was so scared. I’ll persuade her.”

With that, he ordered the servants. “Help Madam back to her room quickly!”

The woman brandished the cleavers. “Who dares to touch me?! I’ll kill this Jiang demon today and return peace to our Feng Residence!”

“My Lady! That’s Qiu-er! No doubt that demon deserves to die, but what are we going to do if you hurt Qiu-er?” Feng Changyue was so anxious that he was about to stamp his feet. He rushed up and grabbed her knives. “Don’t be reckless!”

Several people had different reactions on hearing this.

When the woman appeared dazed for a moment, Feng Changyue took the opportunity to seize the cleavers and beckoned to the maidservant to grab hold of her.

Mirror Old Man flew into a sudden rage and was about to speak when he heard the person behind him let out a sneer.

Feng Yingqiu, who had been silently keeping her head low, raised her head with a frosty smile on her face. There was an eerie flash of red in her eyes as she stared coldly at Feng Changyue. “I deserve to die?”
