The Female Fox Spirit Gets Spoiled by the Big Shot

Chapter 57-58

Chapter 57

Only the Gu Family people knew that it was because of the ghost attached to Xiao Nuan that all this was happening! Try as they might, they could not find a way to exorcise and suppress it.

After handing Xiao Nuan over to the Gu Family people, Zhi Yao prepared to return to her room with Pei Chiyao.

She had said everything she could, but with her current abilities, she still could not help them.

Seeing that Zhi Yao was about to leave, Gu Changlin immediately spoke up: "Please stay!"

No sooner had he spoken than Pei Chiyao's expression turned sour. "Gu Changlin! I've told you, this jade pendant cannot be given to you!"

Hearing this, Zhi Yao nodded in agreement. "That little ghost may fear this jade, but the jade is ultimately a temporary solution, not a permanent cure. I can tell you that while this jade can suppress the little ghost, it cannot dispel it. If that ghost continues to possess Xiao Nuan, she will certainly not live past the age of ten!"

Xiao Nuan appeared to be only three or four years old at the moment.

The faces of the Gu Family people instantly turned deathly pale.

The Gu Old Lady trembled as she said, "Not live past ten... ten years old..."

She suddenly felt dizzy and seemed on the verge of fainting.

As Zhi Yao turned to leave, before she could take a step, a sudden "thump" sounded from behind her.

Turning back, she was somewhat surprised.

It was Gu Changlin, kneeling down!

"Miss! Please stay and hear me out."

Zhi Yao was so startled that she kept backing away, and it was only thanks to Pei Chiyao grabbing her that she didn't trip over the doorstep behind her.

He pulled her into his embrace protectively. "Gu Changlin, she has no ability to exorcise ghosts. You might as well seek help from Taoists instead of asking her."

These Gu Family people were truly a nuisance beyond endurance.

Like a pesky fly that wouldn't go away no matter how many times you swatted at it.

"I have no obligation to help you, and Zhi Yao has no obligation either."

With those words, Pei Chiyao made to enter the room with Zhi Yao.

But Zhi Yao suddenly grabbed his sleeve and said, "Wait a moment."

She gazed at Xiao Nuan in the Gu Old Lady's arms and said softly, "I can help you, but I cannot guarantee success, and you must tell me the whole truth."

Just consider it... redeeming a portion of Pei Chiyao's sins.

He had far too many debts, and any amount repaid was better than none.

Zhi Yao tightly gripped Pei Chiyao's hand, their fingers intertwined.

...

A while later, the group disembarked from the cruise ship and arrived at the Gu residence.

The moment they entered, Zhi Yao was stunned.

This was... a family residence?

Everywhere she looked, the place was filled with yellow talisman papers and all sorts of ritual implements, a shocking sight.

Xiao Nuan had already been taken to a room to sleep.

Zhi Yao gently touched the objects in the living room and indeed felt no spiritual power emanating from them.
