Detective Ghost Empress-Chapter 558: Someone is pushing the child

When Su Tai heard the suggestion of the celestial master, he became depressed and anxious. "What the hell do you mean by these words? That is my only son! How can I let him go? You better do something or don’t blame me for burying you along with my son."

The celestial master turned pale with fear. He had long heard about Su Tai’s tyranny but he still came here because he wanted to make some quick sum of money but he never expected that this time around he would run into a true ghost! That thing seemed to have latched onto Su Tai’s son and was not willing to let go of him. How was he supposed to deal with such a terrible thing?

He stammered, "The grudge of this soul is too strong. She is too powerful for me to control...I am afraid that there is nothing that I can do."

When Su Tai heard the words of the celestial master, he turned pale. He remembered that fearless face that once looked him in the eyes and told him that he would terribly pay for the sins that he had committed. That she would return even if she had to return as a ghost.

"You...what nonsense are you saying?" Su Tai didn’t want to believe that the woman was back. He had called many celestial masters and sealed away her spirit. How could that woman return from the dead? She had been chained!

"Magistrate Su, what is going on?" Zhai Tianyu stepped forward after being nudged by Liu Hui Ying. He raised his head and stared at the child, who was standing on top of the three-storey building. Even though the distance wasn’t much from the ground, Su Tai’s son was too fat. If he fell from the third floor, with his weight alone the impact would kill him.

"My lord—this... it seems like someone has evil intentions toward my family and they had done black magic on us."

When Liu Hui Ying heard the response of the shameless greasy and corrupted man, she almost laughed out loud. The aura behind the child was clearly vengeful. It was nothing related to the black magic but someone who had been trapped in a cage for too long and was finally getting their chance back to release their anger.

She said in a low voice, "Magistrate Su, I am afraid that you are wrong. I know a thing or two and it is clear that this spirit is more vengeful than anything else."

"You ...how can you even say such a thing?" Su Tai was very angry but he couldn’t say anything to the lowly servant, as the master was standing right next to him. How dare he say such things? This servant was digging a hole for him. If Lord Liu believed him, then he would be taken into custody. He could only say in a cold voice, "What does a little servant like you know?"

Liu Hui Ying simply chuckled. She said, "It’s not that I want to offend you, my lord. But I grew up in a village from which countless celestial masters hail. I know a few things as well, and I also possess the yin and yang eyes. The one behind the young master is a chubby little girl. With two buns and a really blessed face. From her eyes alone, I can assure you that she was never destined to die so soon but she did —and something about that has angered her a lot."

As soon as Liu Hui Ying finished speaking, Su Tai’s eyes widened and his face turned pale. And to deliver the final blow, Liu Hui Ying turned and asked, "Did you have an older sister?"

"Shut up!" Su Tai roared angrily but he was clearly panicked at that very moment. He looked around and tried to weasel his way out of the situation. "I didn’t. I never had any sister. I am the only son of this family."

This was indeed the truth.

The Su family indeed had this one son but Liu Hui Ying felt that things were not as simple as he was making them.

"Are you sure because the little girl says that you are her uncle?" said Liu Hui Ying calmly. She was not the one in a hurry. Anyway, the child was not her own and from what she had seen, this brat was not likeable at all. He hit and scolded the maids and the servants. He would sometimes even burn them with hot pokers. It could be said that he had inherited all the bad habits of his father.

So even if he died, she wouldn’t bother to care about him at all.

The one who should be in a hurry should be Su Tai.

She was right; Su Tai was indeed in a hurry, but he didn’t want to speak either. If he spoke, then he would have to dig up all the secrets of the Su as well as the Ji family. That would be the end of him.

But if he didn’t—

"You should make your decision quickly," Liu Hui Ying calmly spoke to the man. "Your son is about to be pushed off. That little ghost is about to shove him down." Liu Hui Ying looked at the little ghost whose features were distorted to the point that she couldn’t see them clearly and frowned, feeling very uncomfortable.

When Su Tai heard her words, he looked at his child, who was leaning forward slowly as if someone was really pushing him from behind. At first, he had not believed the words of the celestial master and Liu Hui Ying, but now he had no other choice but to believe that there was something wrong about this entire situation. His hair started to stand on end!

"See, I told you that this spirit is too vicious and there is nothing that I can do to stop it!" The celestial master felt like he had finally found a backing and spoke in a hurry.

Sorry for the lack of updates. I found a medical issue with me; it will take quite some time for me to continue the treatment and everything — I swear to heavens that I am not lying and I am really unwell these days. Cannot sit for long; I will soon return once everything gets back to normal. And the doctors give me a green flag.
