Detective Ghost Empress-Chapter 323 - A black cat—-2
323 A black cat—-The black cat meowed haughtily as if it was affronted by how the people in the hall were trying to shoo it away. Her father who was happily discussing something with one of the officials something regarding the hunt that was taking place in a few days also turned to look at the black cat.
Superstitious people were found in all periods and the people of this time and place were even more superstitious, as soon as the black cat appeared the entire room was filled with inexplicable energy and Ji Yang along with a few men went ahead to shoo the cat away.
But the cat was stubborn as well when the men who were trying to shoo it away came forward, it ran past them. Escaping through the gap between their legs as she dashed forward and before anyone could stop it, the black cat jumped at the altar that was set for Ji Xianglan.
” Catch that cat!” Ji Yang never once thought that he would be embarrassed by a mere cat, even the Liu family was not able to win against him—— now was he going to be embarrassed by a mere cat? He immediately chased after the cat that was jumping around here and there as if it was bent on embarrassing him.
Ji Mo who was the closest went to catch the cat but as soon as his hands reached close to the cat, the drained thing jumped off the table and onto his head before she pounced off causing him to lose his footing and fall on the table.
The three tables that were set up in the hall were not strong to hold a human body and Ji Mo who was tall and a healthy man was too much for the poor tables to hold on to as they already had enough weight placed on them along with a heavy stone tablet with Ji Xianglan’s name carved on it in elegant writing.
As soon as Ji Mo fell on the table, the weak legs of the wooden tables that were already shaking under the pressure shuddered and gave away taking the entire things that were kept on it on the floor.
Ji Xianglan’s father who saw his son’s tablet fall on the ground hurried to catch it but the stone tablet was too heavy and Ji Xianglan’s father was too old, as soon as he caught the stone tablet, he stumbled forward and then ——
An ugly crack resounded in the hall as Ji Xianglan’s father’s waist was broken with a twist for holding a stone tablet that was too heavy for him to hold onto and no sooner did he fall on the floor than the hall erupted into chaos while the cat who snuck inside was gone as if it never came inside.
.....
The ceremonies that were held by both the Liu and the Ji family ended up in a farce but that had nothing to do with Liu Hui Ying who swung her sword at the murderer who was brought to the prison to fight with her by the Emperor.
Zhai Tianyu who was intuitive and observant knew that she needed blood to calm the anger of her sister since only sacrifices of humans brought enough Yin energy to calm a soul that has been corrupted by a grudge. This was the basic rule however, Liu Hui Ying who was a celestial master, she could not kill an innocent person or else she would be punished by the heavens which was why Zhai Tianyu sent his brother who then brought a man who was charged with heavy punishment of death in a few days.
” Will this be all right?” Zhai Heng asked as they watched the man who was trying his best to defeat Liu Hui Ying, they have promised him that if he could win against Liu Hui Ying then all his sins will be forgotten and he will be able to live a calm life without facing a death sentence.
The man has, of course, agreed, in his eyes, this was a wonderful opportunity since the one who was fighting him was a woman and not a man. The man was not only a murderer but assaulted young women which was why he did not put a woman in his eyes and thought that he could easily win against Liu Hui Ying. This was one of the reasons why Zhai Tianyu asked Zhai Heng to bring this man to the other criminals who were locked inside the prison.
He was certain that having killed a man who harmed so many women would definitely calm the anger of Liu Hui Ying’s sister who was trying her best to surge out of Liu Hui Ying’s body and then rush after the man who killed her even though she had no idea where that man was hiding at the moment.
“It’s all right, the Queen seems to be holding her ground rather well in fact excellently if you were to ask Yu Lingyun who is noting down every new move that she is pulling against that man,” Zhai Tianyu replied as the man who was backed into a corner and rushed at Liu Hui YIng for two seconds he did feel his heart jump in his throat as he turned his attention away from Yu Lingyun who was noting down the moves on the sides but then he calmed down when he saw Liu Hui Ying slash her sword and cutting the head of the man in one sweep move.
Her eyes which were pitch black slowly started to turn human and the bulging nerves on the side of her eyes also relaxed as Zhai Tianyu heaved a sigh and turned to look at Zhai Heng. “See she totally had it under control.”
Zhai Heng whose hand was being clutched by Zhai Tianyu raised their entwined hands and deadpanned, ” You broke my middle finger just now, your majesty.”
