Rescuing the Villainous Boss with a Little Dirty Master

"Aaaaaah, let me go!"

A piercing scream rang out as Xun Yu's soul was torn out in large part. She desperately swung her arms to attack the old ghost, leaving shallow marks on his body. They weren't serious, but they were very annoying.

Old Ghost showed no mercy to the wicked juniors; he raised his hand and slapped Xun Yu on the head.

Xun Yu screamed. Her already weak Yin energy was mostly dissipated by the slap, and she slumped listlessly, powerless to resist.

With a casual tug, Old Ghost pulled her out completely. Looking at the unconscious Jiang Yu in his other hand, Old Ghost curled his lip in disgust and tossed him aside.

"Grandpa, I thought you were amazing, but I was so naive!"

Jiang Heng strolled over to his side, glanced at Xun Yu who looked like a dead dog, and then at the small black shadow struggling slightly on the ground, clicking her tongue in amazement.

Old Ghost flashed that smug smile again, "Old Ghost, you're pretty amazing."

He crumpled Xun Yu's soul into a ball and tossed it aside, then withdrew the yin energy from the room back into his body. Outside, the talismans Qin Ying had laid out seemed to lose their support and drifted to the ground.

Qin Ying took a deep breath. Fortunately, that old ghost wasn't an evil spirit; otherwise, no one would have gotten away with it today.

He was about to tell Qi Lan that everything was alright when he saw the other person stride into the house.

Qin Ying and the others quickly followed.

Upon seeing the scene in the living room, Qin Ying was still shocked, even though he had been prepared. He quickly took out a talisman to separate and restrain the shadowy figure and Xun Yu's soul, preventing them from taking advantage of the chaos to do evil again.

Wang Zheng and Zhou Qian went to check Jiang Yuan'an and Jiang Yu's vital signs and found that they had just fainted. They breathed a sigh of relief, as long as no one had died.

Jiang Yuan'an's injuries were quite severe, but as long as he didn't die, it was all he deserved.

Old Ghost had already disappeared and stayed beside Jiang Heng, chatting with him about other things. He smiled and said, "Little Jiang, let's also hold a sacrifice for Little Wu. He agreed to leave."

"Okay, I remember."

Once Qin Ying's matter was settled, Lao Gui patted Jiang Heng on the shoulder and said, "Go and take care of your business."

Jiang Heng nodded and returned to the sofa with Qi Lan. Xun Yu huddled up, glaring hatefully at Jiang Heng, then suddenly burst into a hysterical laugh, as if remembering something.

"I guess I've come out ahead. Now that you're dead, Jiang Yuan'an and Shen Yuan will never have a good life."

"Xun Yu, you never intended to bring Jiang Yuan'an to his senses, did you?"

Jiang Heng stood in front of her, looking down at her with her eyes lowered.

In the original story, 'Jiang Heng' had already been destroyed, and the Jiang family grew bigger and bigger, eventually even swallowing up the Qi family. He didn't believe that the shadowy figure and Xun Yu were not behind this.

Xun Yu turned to look at Jiang Yuan'an, who was still lying on the ground, and gave a sarcastic smile. "I thought he would at least be somewhat useful." Thinking of the reason for their failure, she turned to stare at Jiang Heng. "Who helped you destroy the formation?"

"Of course he's my boyfriend." Jiang Heng rested her head on Qi Lan's shoulder, smiling brightly.

Qi Lan glanced at him sideways, pursed her lips, and then looked away. Jiang Heng was puzzled; was what he said wrong?

886's voice rippled through the consciousness space: "You should say, of course, it's my~husband~"

"Oh?" Jiang Heng propped her head up slightly, peeked at Qi Lan's expression, and decided to try it later.

Seeing the two of them openly exchanging affections, Xun Yu was so angry that she kept hitting the talisman, causing the yin energy on her body to dissipate even faster.

"Why should someone love you even if you become a ghost! You stole Xiao Yu's things! Give them back to him!"

Seeing that she was on the verge of turning into a vengeful ghost, Qin Ying was about to add more talismans when a gust of yin energy slammed into her head, knocking her to the ground and interrupting her emotions.

Xun Yu was jolted awake by the hard slap and cowered on the ground. She had seen clearly how the old ghost had torn the shadow to shreds, and she didn't want to endure that kind of pain.

Thinking of the shadowy figure, she looked around and saw that he was now just a tiny fragment, not far from being completely annihilated. She stood there, stunned, realizing that in the end, she seemed to have nothing left.

Just then, Jiang Yu woke up. Because control of his body had been repeatedly taken away and two souls had been forcibly separated from his body, he couldn't get up for a moment and could only collapse on the ground, panting heavily.

His breathing aggravated the wound on his neck, and he hissed. He raised his hand to touch it and felt a bloody, mangled wound.

The commotion in the corner drew the attention of others, and Xun Yu exclaimed, "Xiao Yu, are you alright?"

Upon hearing this voice, Jiang Yu paused in his actions. Although more than ten years had passed, he was certain he hadn't misheard.

But how could this be!

He struggled to turn over and kneel on the ground, where he saw a phantom trapped inside several talismans. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the phantom again.

"Mom, Mom?"

Xun Yu suddenly didn't know how to face him, and shrank her soul even smaller.

“Jiang Yu, your mother, like that dark shadow, has always lived inside your body. She bewitched Jiang Yuan’an into killing me, and you should be able to guess what her purpose was.”

Jiang Yu seemed not to understand what he was saying, staring blankly at him. After a moment, he crawled to Xun Yu's side, opened his mouth, and spoke in a hoarse voice, his tone already tinged with tears: "Why?"

"Why? You're asking me why! Jiang Yuan'an betrayed me first! How could he really fall in love with that woman Shen Yuan! And dote on their child so much! He clearly said it was just a business marriage!"

"Then what am I?"

Jiang Yu suddenly remembered the bloodstains Xun Yu had drawn on his body before she hanged herself. He was too young then to think much of it. Now, however, those strange patterns were probably the reason she and the shadowy figure could reside inside him. Did Xun Yu ever love him, or did she only see him as a tool to be used?

"Xiao Yu, of course you are Mom's favorite child."

Seeing the strange expression on his face, Xun Yu tried to comfort him in a panic, but Jiang Yu didn't react to her words.

He shook his head. "You don't love me, and you don't love Jiang Yuan'an. You only love yourself."

"No! Your mother went to great lengths to make you a member of the Jiang family, and your mother loves you!"

Jiang Yu's expression was even more unpleasant than crying. "So all these years, you've known how I've been living."

He braced himself against the ground with one hand, using all his strength to lift himself up. Without looking at Xun Yu again, he staggered out, ignoring Xun Yu's cries and shouts behind him.

Beside Xun Yu, a shadowy figure, now only the size of a fist, suddenly chuckled softly, "Look at this, what did you gain with your life? In the end, it was all for nothing. If you had listened to my advice back then, wouldn't it have been better to live a good life?"

Xun Yu looked at the fading shadow and murmured, "But you still chose to help me..."

The shadowy figure chuckled, "It's just a matter of each getting what they want."

"If you say so, then it is..."

The living room suddenly fell silent. Qin Ying looked at Qi Lan and Jiang Heng, and seeing that they didn't intend to speak, he took out his magic artifact and put the two ghosts away.

Before leaving, Qin Ying sighed, "Mr. Qi, Mr. Jiang, the living and the dead are destined to be apart..."

Qi Lan reached out and pulled Jiang Heng behind him, his face dark. "Master Qin, you don't need to worry about our affairs."

Qin Ying, however, was not intimidated by his imposing manner and continued, "Now that this matter is settled and worldly ties are severed, Mr. Jiang will leave on his own."

Qi Lan's hand clenched tightly, and the next second, it was grasped by a cold hand. Jiang Heng leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Don't be afraid, my destiny is you."

Qi Lan was stunned. She looked at Jiang Heng and then at Qin Ying.

Qin Ying laughed heartily, "Mr. Qi and Mr. Jiang are both blessed."
