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

"Get ready, we're going in."

As soon as Shen Qingyao finished speaking, the gate of the Wang family mansion was hurriedly opened from the inside, and a servant-looking person stumbled out.

"Young man, has someone been murdered in your household?"

Shen Qingyao stopped the flustered servant and looked at him with a profound and inscrutable expression.

"You...how do you know?"

The servant boy from the Wang family looked at Shen Qingyao with a shocked expression, his eyes full of doubt.

"Because I can calculate, I even calculated that something happened to your young master, and your master asked you to invite Marshal Lu, right?"

The servant's expression became even more shocked, and he couldn't help but nod blankly.

"Go back and tell your master that Marshal Si has come to solve your family's problems."

"Young...Young Marshal? This..."

Shen Qingyao's words made him hesitate.

"Go ahead, but don't delay things. Your master won't blame you. But if you mess things up, he won't let you off the hook."

Shen Qingyao frowned, exuding a rather dignified air. Seeing this, the servant could only nod and run back to the Wang family mansion.

A short while later, the gates of the Wang family mansion opened again, and the servant boy trotted towards Shen Qingyao and Si Jingnian.

"Gentlemen, our master invites you."

At this moment, the servant's attitude had become extremely respectful and polite, and his eyes looked at Shen Qingyao with a hint of admiration.

As Shen Qingyao stepped into the Wang family's gate, a stench of blood assaulted her face, while the others remained completely unaware.

Si Jingnian noticed Shen Qingyao's unusual behavior and looked around in confusion, but found nothing amiss.

"Ayao, what's wrong?"

"fine."

Shen Qingyao shook her head. Although she already had some guesses in her mind, she did not say them aloud.

Following the servant into the Wang family's backyard, the sounds of crying could be faintly heard from inside.

Upon arriving at the scene, even Si Jingnian couldn't help but frown, suppressing the nausea churning in his chest.

The Wang couple stood far away from the body of their young master, supporting each other as they wept uncontrollably.

The young master of the Wang family had his entire abdomen cut open, blood was flowing all over the ground, and his internal organs were scattered all over the ground.

His lower body was also soaked in blood, and a part of his body was ripped off and stuffed into his mouth.

Even his chest had a large hole, and his heart was missing.

Such a gruesome death made Si Jingnian feel a chill run down his spine, and for a moment he almost couldn't suppress his physical nausea.

Shen Qingyao frowned and, suppressing her nausea, stepped forward, carefully avoiding the blood and entrails on the ground, and examined them closely while covering her nose.

"The wound has a yin aura, which is the work of the Wood Society."

Although Si Jingnian already had the answer in his heart, Shen Qingyao's words still made him subconsciously think of the woman in red.

Both Shen Qingyao and Si Jingnian had a vague feeling that something was amiss.

She simply killed the members of the Mu family, so why was she so brutal towards the young master of the Wang family?

Judging from her actions, she seems to hate the young master of the Wang family even more than she hates the Mu family.

Could it be that she harbors some irreconcilable hatred towards the young master of the Wang family?

"Young Marshal Si, my son died unjustly! What heartless thief would do such a thing to my son? Young Marshal Si, you must catch this villain for me!"

Mr. Wang's eyes were red-rimmed, and he seemed to have lost all his energy, his eyes filled with despair and grief.

Mrs. Wang had already fainted from crying and was carried back to her room by the servants in a flurry of activity.

"Master Wang has realized that the murderer who killed your son will definitely be caught."

Si Jingnian's expression was indifferent and aloof. He didn't say anything, but he was thinking to himself, "The murderer is an evil spirit. Even if I catch it and give it to you, what can you do with it?"

Shen Qingyao took out her compass with a serious expression, and as the pointer turned, her eyes became more and more sharp.

Finally, the pointer stopped in the direction of Master Wang. Without saying a word, Shen Qingyao took out a handful of something that looked like glutinous rice from her cloth bag and threw it over there.

Before Master Wang could even feel confused or angry, he heard a terrible scream coming from behind him.

Master Wang subconsciously looked back, and when he saw a female ghost in red floating in mid-air, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

"Ghost...ghost...ghost!"

Master Wang tried to get up and run away, but found that he was so frightened that his legs were weak and he couldn't get up at all. He could only try to crawl towards Shen Qingyao with his hands.

Even if he was stupid, he would know at this moment that Shen Qingyao was not simple, and that the only way to survive was to run to her.

"Mu Huihui, your hands are stained with blood, and you are destined to be unable to enter the cycle of reincarnation. In order to prevent you from continuing to do evil, I will now eliminate you!"

With a talisman in one hand and a copper coin sword in the other, Shen Qingyao stared at Mu Huihui with murderous intent.

"You stinky Taoist priest, why are you always haunting me?"

Mu Huihui lunged at Shen Qingyao with a fierce expression, but her strength was greatly reduced due to her injuries, and she was quickly defeated by Shen Qingyao.

"Mu Huihui, you not only harm people, but also devour souls. Even if I don't take you away, Heaven will erase you."

Mu Hui was defeated by Shen Qingyao and had no power to resist. He could only be unwillingly taken into a small bracelet magic artifact by Shen Qingyao.

The small, delicate, milky-white bracelet appeared even more lustrous because of the wood bracelet it had been given to Mu Huihui.

The entire scene of Mu Huihui being taken away was witnessed by Master Wang. Even though he didn't want to accept it, he had to admit that his son had indeed died at the hands of an evil spirit.

After taking down Mu Huihui, it was already broad daylight, and Lu Linxi arrived at the Wang family with his men.

When Lu Linxi first saw the corpse of the young master of the Wang family, he was so frightened that he jumped high. In the end, due to Si Jingnian's unfriendly gaze, he could only suppress his discomfort and take a few steps back.

"Where's Mu Huihui? Was she taken away?"

Shen Qingyao nodded with a relaxed expression, put her hands behind her back and left the Wang family. Si Jingnian walked alongside her, looking at her with doting eyes.

Just thinking about the scene in the illusion made Si Jingnian's mind wander, leaving no room for anyone else.

"Ayao, why would Mu Huihui use such cruel methods to kill the young master of the Wang family? Aren't the Mu family the people she hates the most?"

Even when asking questions, Si Jingnian's gaze remained fixed on Shen Qingyao, his eyes filled with tenderness and affection.

Shen Qingyao walked forward on her own, yawning repeatedly as she hadn't slept all night, so she didn't notice Si Jingnian's gaze.

"Because Mu Hui will avenge Mu Qingya."

"What do you mean?"

When Si Jingnian's puzzled voice came, Shen Qingyao realized that he didn't know anything about Mu Qingya.

"Mu Qingya disappeared last night. She was kidnapped by the Wang family. As for what happened... you're a man, you should know best."

"Although Mu Huihui hated the Mu family and was jealous of Mu Qingya, her feelings for Mu Qingya were also genuine. After learning that Mu Qingya had been kidnapped by the Wang family and even harmed, she killed the Mu family members and then went to the Wang family to kill the people who had violated Mu Qingya."

"That's why the young master of the Wang family died like that; that part of his body was torn off and stuffed into his own mouth."

Shen Qingyao spoke casually, as if she hadn't been affected at all.
