Chapter 339 Heavenly Master 46
Bai Mengling drifted over and carefully examined Gao Haochen’s features. He looked more mature and weathered than he did more than a decade ago. His hair had traces of silver, and his face exuded an unfamiliar aura of a mature man to Bai Mengling!
Through these many years of waiting, Bai Mengling had never forgotten Gao Haochen, whether she was awake or not. But Gao Haochen had already forgotten her. The eyes that once looked at her always brimming with love were now filled only with panic and fear! Fear of her!
Bai Mengling felt sorrowful. The lover she had yearned for even in death had in fact perished with her at the moment of her death. The Gao Haochen who was whole-heartedly devoted to her, who could endure any hardship for her, had long been buried in her heart by the passage of time. The Gao Haochen of today was merely a stranger, not the lover she had cherished in her heart!
Bai Mengling waved her hand and removed the Eye-opening Talisman from Gao Haochen. Since he was no longer her lover, there was no need for a meeting. It was just unfortunate that the master’s good intentions of giving her these Eye-opening Talismans and Avoiding Yin Talismans to prevent a living person from being tainted by Yin Qi were wasted.
Without looking again at Gao Haochen, who was relieved after discovering her disappearance, Bai Mengling floated directly beside Yue Qing and clung to him. The master had told her that she was Yue Qing’s vengeful spirit, so long as she didn’t harm the innocent, her revenge on Yue Qing was in accordance with underworld regulations!
Bai Mengling decided not to kill Yue Qing. Instead, she wanted him to live the rest of his life in constant fear and torment, as penance for the sins he committed!
Seeing Bai Mengling off, Situ Shuangshuang finally had some leisure time to wander around with Little Shun and the house nightmare. They handled any ghostly matters they encountered and often spent time enjoying the scenery together, taking a month to finally make their way back home.
Upon arriving home, as soon as Situ Shuangshuang stepped through the doorway, she saw her master, Chen Qi, surrounded by two people discussing something, likely clients seeking Chen Qi’s assistance.
Since being reborn, Situ Shuangshuang was worried about her master getting into trouble and thus stopped him from taking on dangerous jobs. After all, the role of a Heavenly Master was a high-risk profession, and although not rare, there aren’t many who have lived safely to her master’s age.
But Chen Qi couldn’t remain idle. Apart from fishing and hanging out with a few friends, he would handle some minor issues whenever he had the time. It just so happened that two families visited simultaneously today, both with family members behaving abnormally, seeking Chen Qi’s help to determine if spirits were involved!
On this particular day, two people came to seek Chen Qi’s assistance. One family had a husband who often wandered out at night and returned during the day without knowing what he had done, and doctors couldn’t confirm if it was sleepwalking, leading them to seek Chen Qi’s opinion.
The other family had a son who suddenly claimed to be haunted by ghosts every day, too frightened to even leave his room, and would jump in fear at the slightest mention of his name!
Both families were anxious and wanted Chen Qi to prioritize their cases, leading to ongoing arguments, giving Chen Qi a massive headache and wishing for the ability to be in two places at once.
