Ghost Exorciser: The Oust Fake Heiress Strikes-Chapter 119: Clever Thing

The moment the glowing blue sphere left Lana’s palm, the air cracked with a thunderous pulse.

The light from the mystic energy ball illuminated every corner of the dark room, painting the ghost’s shadowy body in brilliant gold-blue tones.

The ghost froze mid-lunge. Its inhuman eyes widened as the sphere whistled through the air, twisting and spinning like a comet before it struck dead center in its chest.

The explosion that followed was blinding.

A wave of pressure rippled through the room, strong enough to make the furniture rattle and the windows tremble violently. Naina screamed, shielding her face with both hands.

Meanwhile, the ghost’s body started to disintegrate into pieces of atoms. A triumphant expression appeared on Lana’s face.

At the same time, she became sure of her theory. If her pure mystic energy is condensed into a mystic ball and hits the target accurately, she can deal with ghosts 5 levels above her.

This ghost possessed the cultivation of 12 years, and Lana’s capacity to deal with ghosts lay somewhere between ghosts possessing 8 to 9 years of cultivation.

But at the same time, Lana had recalled how her professor and classmates had mentioned that mystic energy becomes purer and purer as she levels up.

However, in her case, she already possessed what they called X-Rank mystic energy. It could mean that her mystic energy did not belong to the standard rank system at all.

And as long as she condenses it... She can outperform everyone in her league.

With that mindset, Lana had put her test into theory. Of course, Lana accepted that she had acted too impulsively. In case she had failed or the mystic ball hadn’t hit the target... or worse, even if she had hit the target, the damage wasn’t big... She would have to resort to her last trump card.

Whoosh.

Once the ghost completely disintegrated into nothingness, the room returned to its former darkness.

"Scan," Lana uttered a single word while her sharp eyes surveyed the surrounding area.

Mr. Crow did as Lana had asked and reported back, "Finished."

Lana’s shoulder slumped slightly while Naina felt her heart drop. Soon her eyes turned moist, and she stared at Lana with gratitude in her eyes.

"Thank you... Thank you so much!"

Lana, still catching her breath, offered a faint smile. "It was my duty."

Naina leapt out of her bed and hugged Lana, murmuring, "Lana...I will never forget this favor!" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

If exorcising the ghost was Lana’s mission, then it was Lana’s kindness that she used her power to increase Naina’s life force.

For Naina... Lana was her savior!

"Hey, no biggie!" Lana patted Naina’s back. However, she frowned slightly when Naina continued hugging her.

"Stay away from her." A gentle voice, edged with coldness, sounded, coupled with the sound of the door opening. When Lana realized that it was Lucian’s voice, she pulled away and gave a pale smile.

"I was just..." Lana guessed that Lucian was furious at the fact that Lana had dared to hug Naina, but the next second, she was carried in a princess’s style, and she heard Lucian’s worried voice.

"Played enough?"

"Hey... I wasn’t playing! I was completing my task," Lana complained and even feigned a struggle, yet secretly her hands slid to his toned chest, and she almost squealed in her heart.

’Yes! Yes! I was finally able to have the feel of his abs under my hand! ’

The warm yet soft body hidden by the smooth fabric almost made her moan in delight.

Her words caused Mr. Crow to almost stop his flapping. This girl!

"You! Where are you taking her away?" Naina questioned angrily.

"None of your business," Lucian replied in his gentle yet cold voice.

By now, Lana would have realized that something was wrong from their interaction, but she was worried about something else.

Her cultivation was rising significantly, and her face turned pale.

’Sh*t! I can’t have a breakthrough now! ’

After every breakthrough, she turns into a silver kitten, and now...

Lana suddenly started to struggle, and this time it was a genuine struggle.

"What happened?" Lucian frowned at Lana’s agitation, and Lana came up with a quick excuse: "I need to use the bathroom."

Her entire face turned red while she cursed her breakthrough in anger.

’Good! Now the last bit of dignity that I had was crushed because of my breakthrough! ’

Lucian paused mid-step. He stared down at her flushed face, his brows knitting together in confusion. "You need to... now?"

"Yes! Immediately!" Lana blurted, nodding frantically.

Lucian didn’t argue and started to walk toward the bathroom.

"No! No! Just drop me here!" Lana half-shouted and half-yelled as she finally landed on the floor.

"You can barely stand," Lucian pointed out in a quiet, flat tone.

"That’s because...because..." Lana stuttered as her knees wobbled. "Because Naina hugged me too tightly!"

With that, she ignored Lucian’s dark face and rushed toward the bathroom.

Lucian’s face darkened while Naina’s face turned red. Who could not misunderstand?

Lana’s words sounded like half a confession.

"My... my, it looks like the chances of me being together with her are more," Naina murmured, her voice deliberately loud enough for Lucian to hear.

Lucian didn’t even bother to look at her and left the room.

Once outside, he returned to the room he was residing in. Massaging his temple, he pulled open his two shirt buttons in irritation while he subconsciously sat on the bed.

Plop!

The next second, a silver kitten suddenly burst in from thin air and landed on his thighs.

For a brief moment, Lucian’s eyes were filled with an alert expression, and his body reacted on instinct as his hand shot to hold the thing that had appeared suddenly when he realized... It was a silver fluffy thing.

All his irritation vanished in an instant, and a meaningful expression appeared on his face.

’Hm... So she was in such a hurry because her secret was going to be exposed, huh? Clever thing.’
