Chapter 48: Chapter 48: When It Comes to Metaphysics, I’m the Grandmistress

"Young lady, turn around! Look at us!"

"Hee hee hee hee hee..."

A pale hand landed on Shen Zhiyao. Then, all the windows in the villa flew open, and a chilling wind howled inside.

The once-colorful villa faded to black and white, followed by an oppressive wave of pressure.

An ordinary person would have been paralyzed instantly.

But Shen Zhiyao was the Ancestral Master of Xuanmen; to her, these tricks were just pathetic!

"BOOM—"

A massive wave of Spiritual Power surged forward, sending the two ghosts flying. They slammed into the wall, blood spraying from the impact.

Shen Zhiyao’s lips curled into a smile. "Your *Heaven and Earth Lose Color* ability is certainly impressive, but when it comes to Metaphysics, I’m the original grandmaster!"

"Bullshit!" The white-clothed girl activated *Heaven and Earth Lose Color* again and charged at Shen Zhiyao.

Shen Zhiyao glared at the girl, lunged forward, and gave her a sound thrashing without another word.

*(A session of "loving education" has been omitted!)*

The girl’s white dress was in tatters, her chest caved in from the beating. A mortal would have been killed instantly, but despite the agony, she could still speak. "Sister! Sister, help me! Help me! My bones are broken! Sister, help me!"

The Red-clothed Ghost took one step forward before Shen Zhiyao gave her a sound thrashing as well. Soon, the red-clothed girl was on the floor, unable to get up, wailing in pain.

Shen Zhiyao said viciously, "So my words go in one ear and out the other? How about I rip out your Spirit Roots and turn you into common wandering ghosts!"

The first girl who was beaten knew how powerful Shen Zhiyao was. She scrambled to her knees and begged, "Master! Master! Please don’t destroy our Spirit Roots! We started as simple wandering ghost souls and spent a thousand years cultivating to get this far! Please, show mercy, Master!"

The other girl also knelt to beg for mercy:

"Spare us! We’ll never disturb your peace again!"

"My sister and I are good ghosts! You must show mercy!"

"Good ghosts?" Shen Zhiyao sneered. "The two of you play eerie music in the villa every night, scaring the residents of Longfeng Villa so much that they don’t dare to live here. And just now, you said you were going to kill me. Is this what you call ’good ghosts’?"

"We just had hard lives, so after we died, we wanted to have a little more fun and catch up on all the songs we never got to hear. We didn’t expect humans to be so timid that they’d just move out," the girl in the white dress, pinned under Shen Zhiyao’s foot, was still trying to argue.

"Playing such scary music so late at night, and so loudly... This is what you call ’having fun’?" Shen Zhiyao looked ready to strike again.

The white-dressed girl hurriedly said, "This was our territory in the first place! What’s wrong with listening to music we like on our own turf?"

The two female ghosts in the villa were actually two Fierce Ghosts who had been cultivating for a thousand years.

The white-clothed ghost was named Lele. She was once the Goddess of a village. When a plague broke out, the villagers needed her blood for a cure, so they stabbed her to death. After that, she began to cultivate and has existed in Longfeng Villa for a thousand years.

The Red-clothed Ghost was named Xinxin. Because her parents didn’t want a girl, she was drowned at birth. She cultivated alongside Lele, and they have existed in the villa for a thousand years.

The ghosts’ malevolent energy was heavy. And even after a thousand years of practice, the Spiritual Power of the Information Age was scarce.

Therefore, despite cultivating for a thousand years, they were still very weak ghosts. When the sun was out during the day, they couldn’t even manifest, so they could only come out and cause trouble at night.

The mountain where Longfeng Villa was located was called Longfeng Mountain. It was originally poor and underdeveloped, with very few inhabitants.

It wasn’t until a thousand years later that the villagers were relocated, and the many earthen houses were torn down to build high-rises and villas.

But during the excavation, their graves were dug up. Because of this, they couldn’t move outside the area of Longfeng Mountain.

With high-end buildings constructed on the land, the two sisters reaped the benefits of the new era, living a prosperous and happy afterlife.

At first, they would just dance gracefully to the rhythm of music under the cover of night. Later, they saw a little girl in the village performing Nuoxi.

They decided to imitate the girl and started performing Nuoxi, dancing every night to the beat of terrifying music.

All for the sake of their own amusement.

Speaking of this, she argued righteously, "They built luxury villas and dug up our ashes, almost causing our souls to scatter. But we just sing and dance here, and scare them a little when we’re bored. We haven’t caused any real harm to them!"

Shen Zhiyao said, "I know you feel wronged, but in any world, it’s survival of the fittest. Since this world is ruled by humans, you need to cover your tracks. To still dare to cause such a ruckus, do you really think there’s no one in the human world who can suppress you?"

"Ghost souls like you, with a thousand years of Cultivation—if you get caught, you’ll be locked up in a laboratory. If you run into someone ruthless, they’ll annihilate you completely, or even use your Spiritual Power to increase their own Cultivation."

As soon as she said this, the two sisters were instantly terrified, their faces turning deathly pale.

The girl in the white dress asked tremblingly, "So, are you a Ghost Hunter sent by the humans?"

Shen Zhiyao shook her head. "I’m the new owner of this villa."

The red-clothed girl, Xinxin, asked tentatively, "So you’re not a Ghost Hunter, and you’re not here to capture us?"

Shen Zhiyao snorted coldly. "You ran into my villa to scare me. I really do feel like crushing you two ’little darlings’ to death."

Hearing this, the two little girls shuddered and clung to each other in terror.

The little girl in red managed to calm down and quickly promised, "We’ll never dare cause trouble in front of you again! No, no, no... We’ll never perform Nuoxi again..."

Although it was cruel to give up her hobby, the person before her was far too powerful. She had no choice but to admit defeat.

Seeing that Shen Zhiyao had no intention of attacking, the little red-clothed girl gave the little white-clothed girl a look, and they prepared to slip away together.

Just as they were about to walk out the door, they heard Shen Zhiyao’s cold command: "Stop!"

The two trembled in fear, wishing they could just turn and run. But the woman was so much stronger than them; no matter how far they ran, they would just be dragged back.

Shen Zhiyao said, "You think you can provoke me and then just walk away scot-free? There’s no such easy way out in this world."

"Th-then what do you want?" the red-clothed girl asked, her voice trembling.

Shen Zhiyao gestured around her. "The villa is filthy. You two are going to clean it from top to bottom. If I find one speck of dust, I’ll kill one of you. If I find two, I’ll kill you both."

Both were startled and scrambled to get to work, afraid that if they were a moment too late, Shen Zhiyao would crush them to death.

You had to hand it to them; ghosts really had great stamina and efficiency.

In less than an hour, they had cleaned the huge villa spotless and even trimmed the plants in the yard.

The red-clothed girl asked with a fawning smile, "See? We’ve cleaned the villa so thoroughly. Are you satisfied?"

Shen Zhiyao looked around and nodded. "It’s spotless. I’m very satisfied!"

"Good, good! As long as you’re satisfied! Then we’ll be leaving now!"

"Wait. Seeing as you did such an excellent job, I’ve decided that from now on, you’ll be in charge of cleaning the villa."

The two ghosts, red and white: "..."
