Chapter 507: Chapter 507
Qin Zhao didn’t notice anything unusual, but upon hearing Tengshe’s words, she looked towards Yan Yi again.
She stared at her for a while but still couldn’t find anything amiss.
"Her body is stinky, and her soul is dark."
Tengshe wouldn’t say such things without reason. Could there be something wrong with this Yan Yi?
To Qin Zhao, however, Yan Yi seemed no different from an ordinary person.
She stood at a distance and quietly activated her Heavenly Eye, looking towards Yan Yi once more.
Yan Yi, this woman, had a gentle and approachable appearance, giving off the vibe of an exquisite and lovely lady. There was just a wisp of dark energy on her forehead, which seemed similar to bad luck.
This suggested that Yan Yi’s luck hadn’t been very good recently.
"At most, it’s a bit of bad luck; it’s not a big deal."
"No, no, there’s definitely a problem."
As soon as Tengshe finished speaking, Yan Yi seemed to notice that Qin Zhao had activated her Heavenly Eye and glanced in her direction.
"Ah! You scared me to death!"
Tengshe suddenly cried out in Qin Zhao’s ear.
"Anyway, I find her terrifying."
Qin Zhao frowned slightly, wondering if it was because her cultivation wasn’t sufficient that she could not see the problem.
Although she was reluctant, she still went to find Chu Yan.
"Do you see that Yan Yi? Is there something wrong with her? Tengshe said she’s not right," Qin Zhao mentioned, slightly tilting her chin toward Yan Yi’s direction.
The police had only questioned Yan Yi briefly as they had already caught the criminal, so she stood by the door restrainedly, her gaze occasionally drifting towards Ji Shaohai.
After Qin Zhao finished, she received such a response.
She looked up at Chu Yan, who had no expression on his face, and tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Are you getting bold now?"
His cold Phoenix Eyes narrowed slightly as he leaned in close to her.
Chu Yan spoke softly, "I bought you a gift today, made you so much good food, and helped them with the case. Why don’t you ever praise me?
If you praise me a bit, I’ll take a look for you."
Qin Zhao turned to look and saw that he was steadily watching her.
His cool Phoenix Eyes unusually bright, long eyelashes accentuating his usually indifferent handsome face now showed a touch of warmth.
His lips curved into a slight smile, with her figure reflecting in his eyes.
Qin Zhao felt her cheeks growing hot.
She averted her gaze and muttered softly, "Look or don’t look, what’s there to praise."
Knowing her personality all too well, Chu Yan understood she was just being hard-mouthed but soft-hearted, so he didn’t press further. Instead, he pinched her chin and turned her face toward him, planting a kiss on it.
Shameless dog of a man!
Immediately after, Chu Yan’s gaze finally turned towards Yan Yi.
At first glance, indeed there was nothing unusual.
But once he activated his Heavenly Eye, he discovered a semi-transparent ghost face emerging above Yan Yi’s head.
Above the ghost face was a bright yellow talisman.
Normally, talismans would be inscribed with vermillion characters.
But this talisman bore black talisman characters, both the ghost face and the talisman exuding a strange aura.
With Heavenly Eye closed, these images instantly disappeared.
Yan Yi showed no signs of ghost energy or yin energy on her body, her complexion rosy, appearing no different from any ordinary mortal.
"Indeed, there is a problem."
The tone of Chu Yan cooled down a notch, his expression becoming somewhat serious.
Qin Zhao knew he had opened his "Heavenly Eye" just now, but he couldn’t see the image that Chu Yan could see.
"A ghostly face had a strange talisman pasted on it."
Chu Yan pondered for a moment, "It doesn’t look like a talisman from the Human World. The talismans in the Human World aren’t drawn ."
"What kind of talisman is it, then?"
Qin Zhao’s curiosity was piqued by his description.
"I’ll tell you about it later."
While the two were talking, the police had already taken the murderer away.
Yuan Dong’er and her husband had both broken the law, and the subsequent police announcement would certainly cause an uproar online regarding Wen Yi’s death and Yuan Dong’er’s crime.
The footage of the two pairs of guests could no longer be used; they would have to find new people to reshoot.
Qin Yu instructed the staff to release a statement indicating that the second season of the show would be delayed.
"What do we do now? Shall we go back first?"
After the police had left, Su Xiaotong asked.
Qin Yu massaged his temples with a headache, "Let’s head back to Imperial City first."
Wen Yi had encountered trouble on his show, and he still had to deal with the Wen Family.
The guesthouse was left with only the crew and a Yan Yi.
Yan Yi had planned to leave, but seeing Ji Wenhai stirred up some reluctance in her.
"Your Highness" and Mr. Qi had instructed her to extract a soul from someone with a special Fate Diagram, but only one part of the soul could be taken, not the entire soul, to avoid alarming the Heavenly Dao.
This made finding and extracting the sample very difficult.
She had finally found a specimen in Ji Shaohai, and she was about to succeed in extracting part of the soul, but Mr. Qi had told her to give up.
Yan Yi felt very reluctant at the thought.
After contemplating for a moment, she still approached Ji Shaohai.
Yan Yi said pitifully, "Shaohai, did that woman really die? The police told me just now, but I still find it hard to believe. You’re finally free now, aren’t you?"
Ji Shaohai became a bit excited to see her approaching.
However, there were still quite a few people around, so he restrained himself a bit.
"Yes, I’ve finally got rid of her!"
He pursed his lips, wanting to say directly to Yan Yi, "Let’s get married!"
But thinking of the Wen Family, he didn’t rashly speak those words.
Wen Yi had just died, and if he suddenly married someone else, the Wen Family would definitely make things difficult for him and Yan Yi.
Yan Yi spoke again with a look of concern, "You went out with her, and she had an accident. Won’t her family suspect that you did something to her?"
"The murderer has already been caught; it wasn’t me."
"I know, but people who have lost loved ones aren’t so rational, and the Wen Family doesn’t seem to be very reasonable either."
Ji Shaohai and Yan Yi had complained to each other several times about Wen Yi and the Wen Family.
Now that Yan Yi said this, Ji Shaohai’s headache worsened.
After all, the Wen Family cherished Wen Yi very much.
"Sigh, what else can be done? I hope they will be somewhat rational."
"Actually, I have a way to help you get rid of them completely. Besides, the Wen Family has humiliated you for so long; don’t you want them to get their comeuppance?"
Ji Shaohai was stunned and hadn’t quite recovered when he saw Yan Yi suddenly grabbing his sleeve and hiding in his arms.
"I—I’m feeling a bit cold."
"The weather is fine today; how can it be cold?"
Ji Shaohai was puzzled.
Yan Yi turned deathly pale, her body trembling slightly, as she struggled to remain standing.
Seeing her acting so strangely, Ji Shaohai followed her gaze, thinking she had seen something peculiar, but he saw nothing at all.
There was clearly no one in that corner.
Why was she so afraid?
But what Yan Yi saw in that corner was completely different from what Ji Shaohai saw.
In that corner, she saw—
