Severing ties with family to marry the young marshal, his whole family chases me to the crematorium.

No matter how many curses were in Shen Qingyao's mind, she dared not stop what she was doing.

She sat cross-legged on the ground, made hand gestures, and began chanting incantations.

Golden light instantly emanated from her body, gradually dispelling the Yin energy in the Mu Mansion. However, the Yin energy that had just been dispelled kept increasing.

Shen Qingyao could only speed up her chanting, and the golden light around her became even brighter.

The human and the ghost were secretly competing, each trying to suppress the other.

Gradually, Mu Huihui began to lose ground, and the yin energy emanating from her body gradually decreased.

With a soft shout from Shen Qingyao, the golden light around her suddenly exploded, and the yin energy in the entire wooden house vanished instantly.

Mu Hui was struck by the golden light and instantly flew backward, crashing into the wall before sliding to the ground.

"You stinking Taoist priests, aren't you the ones who believe in karma and retribution the most? I just wanted revenge, what did I do wrong?"

Mu Huihui was furious, her eyes filled with resentment and hatred as she looked at Shen Qingyao.

"Do you simply want revenge, or do you want to slaughter the entire Mu family?"

"One person wronged you, yet you want to kill everyone in the Mu family. This... I have no choice but to intervene!"

Shen Qingyao's expression was cold and stern, her sharp eyes showing no fear of Mu Huihui's hateful gaze.

"That's because the entire Mu family has wronged me! Not a single one of them spoke up for me. Especially Mu Qingya, why does she get to enjoy the treatment of a Mu family young lady, be loved by her parents, and have such a good marriage, yet she's still not satisfied!"

"And what about me? I'm clearly the eldest daughter of the Mu family, but I live like a servant in the Mu family. I can't even get a marriage that she doesn't want. Why? Why should she live better than me? Why does she look down on the marriage that I want?"

"I hate her! I hate the entire Mu family! I hate them all, I want them all to be buried with me! Hahahaha..."

Mu Huihui appeared very manic, her disheveled hair making her look like a madwoman.

Shen Qingyao couldn't help but frown. Mu Huihui had already become psychologically twisted due to hatred and jealousy.

Do you know why your father treated you that way?

As soon as Shen Qingyao asked the question, Mu Huihui replied nonchalantly:

"Of course I know. It's just because I pushed his concubine down the stairs. What's the big deal? My mother died in childbirth because of him, but he acted like nothing happened and turned around and had three wives and four concubines."

"He even said that once that bitch gives birth to the child, he'll make her his legal wife. Why should he?! My mother is the legal wife, what is that bitch anyway?"

Mu Huihui's expression suddenly turned fierce, a murderous intent flashed in her eyes, along with a chilling madness.

"Since he dotes on that bitch so much, then I'll send her to keep my mother company. He wants that bitch to have a child, then I'll make sure she can't have one, hahaha..."

Looking at the vicious and insane Mu Huihui, Shen Qingyao couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.

Mu Huihui was only five years old at the time, yet she already had such a vicious mind; it was truly terrifying.

Just as Shen Qingyao and Mu Huihui were facing off, two figures appeared at the gate of the Mu residence.

Mu Qingya looked at Mu Huihui with surprise and disappointment, her eyes red and her face streaked with tears, clearly having heard everything Mu Huihui said.

Lu Linxi glanced at Mu Huihui with a complicated expression, then ran to Shen Qingyao's side in a flash.

"Sister, why? You weren't like this before. You used to feel sorry for me when I fell down, you would stay with me and comfort me when I was scared, and you would stand up for me when I was bullied. You weren't like this before... You weren't like this before."

"Why? Why do you hate me so much? Do you really... really hate me that much?"

Mu Qingya looked at Mu Huihui with tears in her eyes, her gaze full of hurt.

She couldn't understand why the older sister who had been so kind to her in her memory had become like this.

Mu Huihui looked at Mu Qingya with disdain, her eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.

"Yes! I hate you! I wish you were dead! We're both daughters of the Mu family, so why do you live a better life than me? Why are you pampered and spoiled as you grow up? Your father even went to great lengths to find you a suitable marriage, afraid that you would suffer. And what about me? I'm also a daughter of the Mu family, so why should I be treated like a servant, not even allowed to pick up what you don't want?"

"Mu Qingya, why? Why? Huh!"

Mu Huihui screamed at Mu Qingya like a madman, and finally, disregarding the fact that she was injured by Shen Qingyao's golden light, she dragged her aching soul towards Mu Qingya.

Upon seeing this, Shen Qingyao's brow twitched, and without hesitation, she threw a talisman at Mu Huihui, who was once again sent flying backward.

"elder sister……"

Mu Qingya was startled by Mu Huihui's sudden attack. Seeing her being knocked away, she instinctively called out to her in alarm.

"Sister, no, it's not like that... Father... he doesn't love anyone, and I'm just an object he uses to gain benefits."

"In order to form a marriage alliance with the Wang family, he went so far as to collude with them and kidnap me halfway through the journey. He sold me to the Wang family, hoping to use me, his daughter, to obtain the benefits he desired."

"Sister, I'm the same as you..."

Mu Qingya shed tears of sorrow, her face filled with grief. At this moment, she felt no fear towards Mu Huihui and slowly walked towards him.

"Mu Qingya..."

Shen Qingyao wanted to call out to Mu Qingya, but Mu Qingya turned her head and shook her head in despair.

Approaching Mu Huihui, Mu Qingya squatted down without any guard and took Mu Huihui's hand.

"Sister, just kill me to appease your resentment, and then have Master Shen perform a ritual for you to pass on to the afterlife. Don't let them prevent you from entering the cycle of reincarnation; it's not worth it."

"Sister, they are not worth you paying such a high price. Whether you hate me or not, I remember all the good things you did for me. They all happened in the past. If there is an afterlife, let's be sisters born of the same mother. Will you still be my sister?"

Mu Qingya's eyes were filled with pain; her worldview had changed overnight.

The once dignified but loving father has changed, becoming a monster who would sell her off like merchandise for profit.

The older sister who loved me so much had always hated me just as much.

Suddenly, she felt tired, so tired that she wanted to fall asleep and never wake up again.

A sinister aura surged in Mu Huihui's eyes. She raised her hand, revealing sharp fingernails that scratched across Mu Qingya's fair neck, as if blood would seep out at any moment.

Mu Qingya resignedly closed her eyes and quietly awaited death.

Shen Qingyao's heart was in her throat, but since it was Mu Qingya's own choice, she couldn't be bothered to say anything more.

You can't reason with a damned ghost; she's determined to die and there's nothing you can do about it.
