The Female Taoist Priestess’s Childhood Sweetheart Is a Male CEO

Chapter 73

In front of the stunned gazes of Nie Xiujin and others, five little paper figures scurried over and bit into the parasitic ghost's remaining leg that hadn't been pulled out yet.

United they stood, with all their might the five little figures tugged and pulled that leg right out.

At the same time, Jian Xi placed a Soul-Stabilizing Talisman she had prepared earlier on Song Min, stabilizing her soul, and also removed the jade bangle with bells from her wrist.

Jian Xi knew that the jade bangle was the 'vessel' for the parasitic ghost. The ghost had been possessing Song Min's body earlier, so the bangle couldn't be removed then. But now...

She held the jade bangle with distaste, turning to look at the parasitic ghost.

Zhang Xiaoxia stared at Jian Xi in horror, completely taken aback by how someone could separate a being that had already fused eighty percent with its host!

And moreover... she looked at the unconscious Song Min on the bed, not even a single hair on her soul had been harmed!

Zhang Xiaoxia released her power, trying to break free from Jian Xi's restraints. "Impossible, impossible! I want to go back, that body is mine! Mine! I still need to marry He Qingchen, give me back my bangle!"

Jian Xi: "......"

At this point, she was still thinking about marrying her boyfriend? This, Jian Xi could not tolerate.

It was noon, He Qingchen should be free at the moment. Jian Xi made a video call to him, standing in front of Zhang Xiaoxia.

The screen showed Zhang Xiaoxia's corporeal form. Jian Xi tilted her head slightly, a mischievous smile on her red lips. "Since you want to marry He Qingchen so badly, I'll grant you that wish before you dissipate into nothingness!"

The video connected, revealing He Qingchen's handsome face. Seeing Zhang Xiaoxia behind Jian Xi, his brow furrowed slightly.

Just as he was about to speak, Jian Xi cut in, "Boyfriend, there's someone, no, a ghost who says she wants to marry you. What do you think?"

"Heh, in this lifetime, I'll only marry you." He Qingchen spoke each word deliberately, his expression playful yet his tone utterly serious.

Jian Xi's brows curved in delight, nodding in satisfaction. She turned to Zhang Xiaoxia, arching an eyebrow. "Did you hear that? My boyfriend said in this lifetime, he'll only marry me!"

On the video, He Qingchen let out a low chuckle. Sometimes Jian Xi's possessiveness was quite strong, but he liked that about her. "I have an exam soon, hurry and deal with this. After the exam, I'll come pick you up. Hanging up now."

"Sure, see you at the driving test center." Jian Xi ended the video call.

Jian Xi's words completely stunned everyone present. Wasn't he supposed to be her brother? What was with this sudden torrent of dog food?

The five agents from the Special Security Bureau felt like their brains weren't working properly today!

Jian Xi sensed everyone's gazes, suddenly remembering that her public identity was supposed to be He Qingchen's sister. Now she had abruptly become his girlfriend, which might be a bit hard for them to process!

Well, she was too lazy to explain. Let them figure it out themselves.

Zhang Xiaoxia's sinister gaze was fixed on Jian Xi's face, the ominous aura around her growing thicker and thicker, provoked by Jian Xi's words. But Jian Xi ignored her, holding the jade bangle with distaste as she glanced at the name and birth date inscribed on it.

"Zhang, Xiao, Xia. To satisfy your own vanity, you forced your parents to buy you all those brand-name items. When they didn't buy them for you, you threatened to jump off a bridge and kill yourself. But you didn't expect that year to be a drought - the river was too shallow, and the impact when you jumped was too great, killing you instantly?"

Shi Fan couldn't help but laugh mockingly, "So she ended up killing herself!"

Jian Xi heard this and arched an eyebrow in agreement with Shi Fan's words. She continued her analysis, "Your parents truly spoiled you. To give you a chance at reincarnation, they even used their own life forces as payment to have a wicked sorcerer turn you into a parasitic ghost. Tsk, such excessive indulgence! No wonder you became so pampered and willful!"

"You also have a human life on your hands. Growing up without discipline, relying on your parents' boundless pampering, you bullied your female classmates at school. One poor girl couldn't take the torment and jumped off a building to her death, but you escaped legal punishment by exploiting your minor status."

Jian Xi calmly recounted every one of Zhang Xiaoxia's misdeeds from her previous life, not leaving out a single detail.

Originally, Jian Xi had planned to destroy Zhang Xiaoxia outright. But after laying out all the facts, she changed her mind.

For someone like her, dissipating into nothingness would be too merciful a fate. Being sent to Hell to face judgment would be far more fitting.

Knowing Judge Cao's character, the Fourth Level Mirror of Retribution for a few hundred years, then being thrown into the Fourteenth Level Hell of Wrongful Death for a few more centuries. And even if she was eventually reincarnated after all that, she would likely only be reborn into the animal realm at best!

As for her parents, they had already been waiting for her down below for a while.

Jian Xi still had an exam to take, so she didn't bother wasting any more time on Zhang Xiaoxia. She took out a talisman and wrapped the jade bangle with it, then chanted the Fire Attack Spell.

The bangle and Zhang Xiaoxia were linked, so as the bangle burned, she also suffered immense agony, her soul gradually becoming transparent.

Once the bangle had turned to ash, Jian Xi opened the Ghost Gate and kicked Zhang Xiaoxia through it.

With this matter resolved, only the still-unconscious Song Min remained. Checking the time, Jian Xi saw she still had a spare ten minutes, plenty of time.

She approached Song Min's bedside to examine her condition.

Beside her, Lin Xi Wen adjusted his glasses and said, "I've already spoken with Mr. Song. We'll be sending her to the hospital shortly. I tried convincing him for a while, but he still doesn't want to give up on his daughter."

"Give up... on Song Min? Why would he give up on her?" Jian Xi was puzzled.

Lin Xi Wen explained, "You may not know this, but the ongoing treatment costs for a vegetative patient are extremely high, likely more than a single father like Mr. Song can afford."

As he spoke, he glanced at Song Zhou, who seemed unsurprised, as if he had already prepared himself for this.

Having said so much already, Jian Xi was too lazy to keep talking. She was thirsty now. Turning to Song Zhou, she said, "Mr. Song, do you have anything to drink at home? I'm thirsty!"

Though still consumed by the sadness of his daughter potentially becoming a vegetative patient, Song Zhou also felt a bit embarrassed. This woman had been working tirelessly for his family's sake, yet he hadn't even offered her a drink. That was unacceptable.

"Sorry about that, I do have drinks. Let me go get some water for everyone."

As Song Zhou went to get water, Jian Xi didn't idle either. She took out a silver needle and an alcohol swab from her bracelet, sterilized the needle, then jabbed it right into the area between Song Min's eyebrows.

"Ah!" Song Min let out a pained cry, her brows furrowing.

Lin Xi Wen behind her was dumbstruck. Nie Xiujin froze in shock. Tang Xingyou, Shi Fan, and Qi Yunzheng all let out shrill screams like prairie dogs!

Song Zhou rushed back in, carrying six water bottles. "What happened? What's going on?"

When he saw his daughter, now awake and looking at him, the water bottles slipped from his hands and fell to the floor.

His daughter was awake!
