The boys who had been under Cheng Yixue's influence realized their mistakes and went to apologize to Ye Qiu. Cheng Yixue herself disappeared from school, with rumors of her tutor's ultimatum. Meanwhile, Ye Qiu and Li Yizhen discussed Cheng Yixue's potential plans to absorb luck from powerful individuals. Elsewhere, He Chenyang, who had taken Cheng Yixue in, began experiencing strange occurrences and mental exhaustion, suspecting a ghost was involved. His suspicions were confirmed when Cheng Yixue revealed that "Little Quan," a little ghost she considered her son, was living with them and would be his child as well, especially since she claimed to be infertile.

He Chenyang didn’t even have time to stop it. A shadow appeared a meter in front of him, and then the shadow became clearer, gradually condensing into the appearance of a five-year-old boy.

His complexion was as pale as Cheng Yixue’s, with black pupils taking up his entire eyes without a trace of white. He looked up with black pupils staring at He Chenyang, and his mouth seemed to be mouthing "daddy."

He Chenyang was so startled that he let out a sharp cry and then retreated abruptly until he hit the door, but no matter how he tried, he couldn’t open it.

Seeing his attempt to escape, Cheng Yixue’s face suddenly fell: "You want to leave? Don’t you like Little Quan? Little Quan likes you so much, he even played games with you before! And he calls you daddy, yet you don’t acknowledge him?"

"Madman, you’re a madman!" He Chenyang could no longer maintain his composure, "You’ve completely lost it, recognizing a ghost as a son. I’m telling you, I will never marry you, and I don’t have a ghost son! Let me out, if you kill me, given my current status, you won’t have it easy either!"

"Why would we kill you?" Cheng Yixue stepped forward, looking at him tenderly, "After all, my daughter and I still need you to replenish our Primordial Energy and Luck!"

He Chenyang, almost instantly realizing, took a sharp breath and said, "Are you telling me that my recent mental fatigue and bad luck are because you stole my Luck?"

Cheng Yixue smiled, "You’re very clever. That day, Little Quan and I were injured by people from the Mystical Sect, and only you could help us."

"Why didn’t you make a move earlier?"

"Naturally, because it wasn’t needed before. I was initially planning to swap lives with someone else and then live well with you. But unexpectedly, that person spotted me and even brought Taoists and Buddhists to deal with me. Don’t worry, Chenyang, I won’t kill you. Once Little Quan and I recover, after we kill Ye Qiu, our family of three will live happily together."

"Ye Qiu? Ye Qiu of the Ye Family?"

"Calling for me?" Suddenly, a voice came from outside the window. Both Cheng Yixue and He Chenyang thought they’d misheard and turned to look, only to find that there really was someone outside the window.

When would you be moved to tears? He Chenyang was at that point now. He thought he had no escape route, but now things had turned around; he was saved!

"Save me, Ye Qiu, save me!" He Chenyang ran towards the window, but Cheng Yixue and the little ghost blocked his way. He even flew into the air during his sprint, then crashed violently against the wall.

"You’ve actually come to my door." Cheng Yixue gritted her teeth, "Aren’t you afraid of death?"

"You aren’t afraid of death; why should I be scared? You’re the one doing bad things now." Ye Qiu pushed open the window and jumped in with an air of calmness.

Cheng Yixue sneered, "I was just wondering how to find you for a life swap, and you came here alone. Do you think, as a newcomer to the Taoist Sect, you’re a match for Little Quan? Heaven really is helping me!"

"Whether heaven helps you or not is unknown, but how do you know I’m not this little ghost’s match?" She glanced at He Chenyang on the ground, "Want to escape from this woman?"

He Chenyang nodded frantically.

"I can save you, but you have to agree to one condition."

"Name it, as long as I can do it."

"After you’re saved, donate half your assets."

He Chenyang, though it pained him, valued his life more: "No problem."

"As expected of the Eldest Lady from the Ivory Tower, so naive to the situation. Neither of you will leave today. Little Quan, capture Ye Qiu, and we’ll swap lives today!" Cheng Yixue said with a vicious look, and the little ghost, Little Quan, immediately turned into a mist of Ghost Energy heading towards Ye Qiu.

"Alas!" He Chenyang seemed to hear a light sigh, followed by a sudden burst of golden light around Ye Qiu, surrounding the Ghost Energy with talismans.

The shrill scream drilled into He Chenyang’s ears like a demonic sound. He didn’t expect that the little ghost he’d thought was so formidable was quickly trapped by the talismans. The speed was so fast he couldn’t react.

If he hadn’t fallen hard before, if Cheng Yixue hadn’t spoken with such confidence earlier, he would have thought the little ghost was very weak. However, the only possibility was that Ye Qiu was too strong.

"How could this be?" Indeed, Cheng Yixue let out an incredulous scream, "How could you become so powerful in such a short time?"

"Perhaps because I’m smart? Or maybe I learned it in a past life? After all, this is a talisman I spent three days drawing; how can it not be powerful to repay my effort?"

Ye Qiu’s words almost drove Cheng Yixue mad. She trembled all over, then rushed forward to destroy the talismans surrounding the little ghost.

He Chenyang nervously wanted to stand up immediately to help Ye Qiu, but he saw that Ye Qiu didn’t even move, still looking at Cheng Yixue’s actions with indifference, knowing that she had it all under control.

The talismans were torn apart, and the little ghost inside had much weaker Ghost Energy. Cheng Yixue wanted, like last time, to have the little ghost take her away. However, this time, once released, the little ghost started to devour her body and soul directly.

"Ah!" As her soul was devoured, Cheng Yixue rolled on the ground in pain, screaming, "Little Quan, stop it, what are you doing? I’m Mom!"

"Mom? You offer blood to him every day, yet with your lack of ability, did Ghost Granny not tell you that little ghosts are easy to backfire?" Ye Qiu watched with open eyes, showing no intention of intervening.

"Save me." Cheng Yixue pleaded to Ye Qiu, reaching out her hand as if to grab something, "Ye Qiu, save me, I was wrong, aren’t we good friends? I beg you, save me."

"I don’t have a friend who ruins my family and wants to swap my life." Ye Qiu looked on indifferently.

Cheng Yixue’s eyes turned vicious: "You’re from the Righteous Sect; aren’t you afraid of getting blamed by other righteous people for not exorcising an evil ghost?"

"You’re overthinking it. We from the Mystical Sect always repay kindness and revenge. Don’t worry, I won’t let you die. Once your soul is half-devoured, I’ll take care of that little ghost."

"That way, I’ll become crippled and mentally handicapped!" Cheng Yixue was both shocked and angry, then fearful. She didn’t want to become a fool! Would she still be herself afterward?

"I just want to take revenge on you like this!" Ye Qiu nodded as she spoke.

He Chenyang swallowed hard; today, not only was his world shattered, but his view on women changed. Those who usually appeared harmless turned out to be formidable behind the scenes.

Poor kid, he’s likely to have a shadow over women from today onwards. But at least he saved his life today; in the future, he’ll surely learn from this, always cautious when judging people. Who knows what kind of demons hide in seemingly harmless people’s hearts?
