"Father!" Wang Dewen slapped his thigh and cried out, immediately abandoning everyone and rushing to the backyard.

Wang Wanyue's eyes darted around, and she cried out, "Grandfather suddenly vomited blood out of nowhere, he must have been harmed by evil spirits!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Rujun immediately glared at Jiang Ling with resentment and hatred, "You're a jinx! You brought disaster the moment you entered the house! Xiuyuan, lock her and that little bastard up. If anything happens to Father, beat her to death so she can be buried with him!"

After saying that, Fang Rujun hurriedly left with Wang Wanyue.

Jiang Ling stared in the direction they left...

That place is where the ghostly aura is strongest!

Could the blood tie be with the old Marquis?

"Little one, let's go take a look!" Jiang Ling had just taken a step when the servants surrounded her. Jiang Ling held a talisman in her hand, but before she could make a move, Nan Zhu gave an order and forced the servants back.

Jiang Ling met Murong Yan's eyes.

Murong Yan's phoenix eyes were deep and unfathomable, and his thin lips parted slightly: "Go, that is your own grandfather."

"Thanks!" Jiang Ling picked up the baby and chased after them.

Jiang Yuyan leaned on Jiang Ling's shoulder, his cool yet adorable face framed by curious eyes gazing at Murong Yan. "Handsome uncle, such a kind person!"

Murong Yan couldn't help but wave to Jiang Yuyan; he felt an inexplicable fondness for this child.

Loyalty and Righteousness Institute.

The old Marquis's residence had an artificial lake in front of it.

What was originally a tranquil scene with excellent feng shui was now, in Jiang Ling's eyes, a ghostly aura like black mist, shrouding the lake's surface and baring its fangs and claws. Within the ghostly mist, a blood-clad female ghost, her eyes bleeding, stared intently at everyone who passed by with resentment and hatred.

Which filial son buried the female ghost here?

Jiang Ling thought to herself, then her eyes met those of the female ghost. The ghost immediately lunged at her fiercely, shouting, "You saw me!"

Jiang Ling was about to attack when a faint golden light flew out from the courtyard, suppressing the female ghost back into the ghostly mist. Jiang Ling looked surprised, then turned and carried Jiang Yuyan into the house.

"Father—your son is here! Father! Please open your eyes and look at your son one more time!"

"Waaaaah, Grandfather, please hang in there!"

Wang Dewen and the others knelt before the bed, weeping bitterly.

Jiang Ling put Jiang Yuyan down and looked at the old marquis on the bed, whose face was ashen and who was barely clinging to life.

The golden light was the accumulated merit of the old Marquis throughout his life. After suppressing the female ghost, it returned to his brow, faint as a candle in the wind, almost extinguished.

But the ghostly aura had already crept into the bed curtains and climbed up to the old marquis's neck!

Jiang Ling immediately stepped forward, "Make way! There's still hope for the old Marquis!"

Fang Rujun was furious: "You jinx! You dare to come here! Seize her!"

"What are you doing! Let go of your grandfather!"

"Freeze!" Jiang Yuyan's words became law, freezing everyone in the room. His little face was cold as he angrily said, "Mother is saving people, don't interfere!"

Saving people? With her?

Everyone looked at her with disbelief, wishing they could tear Jiang Ling to pieces!

But they couldn't move no matter what they did, and they became frightened again. Just who were Jiang Ling and her son?

Ignoring everyone else, Jiang Ling chanted an incantation, formed hand seals, and then grabbed at the old Marquis: "Save him!"

Her palm was like a black hole, gathering all the ghostly energy from the old marquis into a foul-smelling black bead. Jiang Ling flipped her hand, her left hand holding the talisman, and slapped it upwards, wrapping it around her!

"呲呲呲——"

The talisman spontaneously combusted, burning the black bead to ashes.

This scene left everyone stunned!

Jiang Ling then took out a pill from her pouch, pried open the mouth, and fed it to the old Marquis. Visibly, the old Marquis's deathly pale face gradually regained color. His cloudy, unfocused eyes cleared and shone with a sharp light.

"Girl, you saved me!" The old Marquis was extremely grateful, holding Jiang Ling's hand tightly. "Girl, whose family are you?"

"Lord Zhongyi, she is your own granddaughter!" Nanzhu pushed Murong Yan to catch up. He was enthusiastically eating melon seeds and also felt indignant for Jiang Ling, shouting, "Your son and daughter-in-law keep saying they want to beat her to death so she can be buried with you!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room changed their expressions...
