The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny

Chapter 844: It Would Be Terrible If Words Get Out

Zhou Weizong looked helpless and confused. “Young Lady Xie, why did this happen? Why are the others fine…?”

“He was once haunted by a vengeful spirit, so of course it’s different for him. He lost his Yang energy. He can recover in a year or so, but he’s still weaker than you guys,” Xie Qiao explained slowly.

The people around Zhao Xuanjing were all full of Yang energy.

The ghouls could touch them, but they could not possess them.

Qin Zhi was the only one who was weak, so he was a pushover to them.

“It seems like we really can’t get him to follow Your Highness from now on…” Zhou Weizong shook his head helplessly.

His Highness was now close to Half-immortal Xie and Master Mo. These two could communicate with worlds, so it was inevitable that they had to know about ghouls. They had to be calm in the face of danger.

Qin Zhi did not do anything, but he was possessed by a ghoul. How could anyone rely on him?

However, even if he did not follow His Highness, he could do other things for His Highness. It was just that he was not as glorious as he was now.

“Young Lady Xie, do you have any ideas on how to deal with him? This kid… is quite hard-working…” Zhou Weizong valued brotherhood very much, so he could not bear to see Qin Zhi like this.

“No. He has all four limbs, and he’s still alive. He’s doing pretty great. Don’t be greedy, okay?” Xie Qiao was very ruthless.

Zhou Weizong sighed.

Yu Xian looked at her cousin and was a little puzzled.

Her cousin’s attitude toward Young Lady Xie was a little strange. It was indeed respectful, but it was also a little excessive. It was as if Young Lady Xie was a miraculous pill, but he actually had to ask for her opinion on such a matter…

Even if Young Lady Xie was from a Taoist temple and had some ability, she was still a young lady from a noble family, not a real sage…

Yu Xian could not understand.

…

The starving ghoul was still howling just now, and its soul was very weak.

Xie Qiao took the opportunity to cast a talisman, and the golden light trapped it.

“Why are you ghouls living here?” Xie Qiao asked.

Xie Pinggang frowned.

The starving ghoul was very uncomfortable. It struggled to escape, but it was restrained by Xie Qiao’s talisman. It could not escape at all. After a while, it knelt down and begged for mercy.

“Master, please spare my life! I didn’t hurt anyone. I just wanted to eat something just now…”

They starved to death. After becoming ghouls, they also starved. They had been weak all this time, so they did not go to the city to do bad things.

No matter how much food it had absorbed, it could not eat its fill. Thus, it had thought that after possessing a body, it would eat. Perhaps it would feel better…

“Eldest Sister, are you imitating Master Mo to interrogate ghouls?” Xie Pinggang was a little curious, but also a little incredulous.

Xie Qiao’s heart skipped a beat. Then, her expression changed, and she hid behind her eldest brother. “Eldest Brother! This is so scary… He wants to eat people…”

“I thought you had grown bolder…” Xie Pinggang felt that Xie Qiao’s reaction was strange.

“No, but… I have to deal with this matter. Senior Aunty Mo isn’t here, so I can only bite the bullet. Otherwise, I won’t have the dignity to see her next time…” Xie Qiao said. With a sad and hesitant expression, she continued, “Sigh, how are we going to interrogate such a scary thing…?”

Xie Pinggang nodded and said in a low voice, “You should also restrain yourself. There are so many outsiders around. It would be terrible if words get out.”

If one of them were to be disobedient and spread the news that Xie Qiao was able to see ghouls, this young lady would lose her dignity, right?

Zhou Weizong had been listening attentively, so he heard that.

Helplessly, he lowered his head and stepped on the soil under his feet.

Could he say… that they had long known about Young Lady Xie’s abilities?

Young Lady Xie was from the Water Moon Temple as well. How could she be any inferior?

Thinking back to when they first met, she had even dug up a set of bones!

It had to be said that Xie Pinggang had really thought too much. They were loyal to the Crown Prince. If the Crown Prince prohibited them from saying anything, even if they had a knife to their necks, they would not say anything.

Unfortunately, at this moment, it would be terrible for them to argue with Xie Pinggang..
