Chapter 233: Possessed
In reality, Xie Qiao had no options. She was surrounded by rather powerful ghouls now. If they insisted on possessing her, she could only bear it. What was the use of going after them later on? She would not get back what she lost.
“Sure. But there are many of you here, and I’m weak. I can’t be walking around. You guys can…rest at the academy. I’ll get someone to prepare snacks and tea for you guys to enjoy. Leave after that. You guys should know that if you harm my life, you’d be carrying a sin. You won’t be able to repay that even if you reincarnate into animals in your next life,” Xie Qiao said.
In reality, she was not worried about her life.
The old ghoul was happy, “Don’t worry, we know what to do.”
Although she could communicate with both worlds, she was a human after all. If she was really dead or became half-dead because of them, they would have bad karma stuck on them. They would live a horrible life in their next life.
Since they were already dead, they would do anything for a better next life. Naturally, they would be careful.
Now they only wanted to have a taste of being alive.
They would not cause a mess.
“I’m the direct daughter of a fourth-rank official. Please maintain my identity after you guys possess me!” Xie Qiao added.
The talismans’ effectiveness faded again.
The ghouls nodded.
In reality, those who dared to come into the academy had weak dark energy. Most of them were proper. Grieving ghouls would not dare to come in at all.
The scholars had strong Yang energy, there were many things in the academy that could repel them. That was the reason why Xie Qiao insisted on coming to the academy.
She walked in and got someone to prepare her a courtyard. Naturally, she had to spend silver beans to do that.
Later on, she got someone to prepare food, snacks, and tea…
After all was done, her body collapsed. She had lost consciousness.
“It’s been years since I tasted such delicious food. It’s amazing,” the old ghoul ate a mouthful of dishes and caressed his beard by instinct. He was stunned for a second, feeling the smooth skin, then he released a loud laugh. He got an overseer over, “If this old man…I were to invite Teacher Xiao over to play chess with me, how much would that cost?”
The overseer looked at “Xie Qiao” with a strange expression.
Something was off with Young Lady Xie today.
“Did Young Lady Xie run into a predicament? You’re a student. You can’t be getting the teacher over. It doesn’t matter how much money you have,” the overseer was considered to be nice.
The old ghoul sighed. He then looked at his own hands.
It was a young pair of hands.
Since he could not leave the academy, he wanted to do something interesting.
“Get me a horse,” the old ghoul said.
The overseer’s eyelids twitched, “This is the academy. You’ll have to get it yourself, Young Lady Xie.”
‘She wants to flaunt her wealthy lady’s identity at the academy?
‘She would be punished with silver beans later. Is she not worried about that?!’
The old ghoul thought he was young and strong now. Although he was in a lady’s body, it was considered great. He must experience the majesty of being young. Therefore, he did not mind going to the stables with the overseer walking in big steps.
The overseer was rather dumbstruck watching her walking in big steps.
He had seen Xie Qiao before. He remembered this young lady was very gentle and reserved. She was like an angel.
However, now…
She hunched her body slightly, and her steps were rather wide. She looked out of place. Why did she look so strange?
The old ghoul got onto a horse happily when they arrived at the stables.
“Hiyah!”, he went, making the overseer jolt.
‘Something is wrong with this young lady…
‘Is she possessed?!’
The overseer was secretly terrified when he suddenly recalled it was a special day today.
He could not make up his mind. He thought about it and got someone to get Teacher Xiao over.
Many teachers were away today as it was a rest day. Apart from the dean and the Crown Prince, only Teacher Xiao would be at the academy today.
