Chapter 703: Wei Wei Discerns Who Was the Hostile Ghost

“What’s with this wedding gown?” Helian Wei Wei turned to ask Old Lady Wang.

Old Lady Wang replied with guilt written all over her face, “Seeing that Liu’er wasn’t a bad choice, I wanted her to marry Ah Ling, but she did not agree to it. I was the one who forced her to wear the wedding gown.”

“That wasn’t what I was asking about.” Helian Wei Wei looked at the wedding gown on Yan Liu’er and slightly darkened her eyes, “I was wondering how did this gown came about? There’s something wrong with it.”

Astonishment flashed across Old Lady Wang’s eyes. She gave a bitter laugh, “This is no ordinary gown. It was sewn by me. I listened to the young master’s suggestion, bought some white cloth and dyed it red with the blood of the maidens. The young master said that as long as both parties put on their wedding outfit and complete the wedding ceremony, the girl will fall in love with the man forever, never to leave him.”

Hearing what she has said, Helian Wei Wei halted her movements and looked Baili Jia Jue in the eye.

This was the real place where the aura of resentment gathered.

Those girls did not die in peace at all, their souls and resentment were all trapped in this wedding gown.

Which was why it was affecting the passing dead souls nearby.

When dead souls come too close to this area, it would be infected.

However, there were no immediate effects since there wasn’t any direct contact. The aura of resentment would only develop after a few days and those infected souls would further infect other dead souls.

No wonder the King of Hell wanted the whole underworld on lockdown. With the origin of the infection yet to be traced, vast numbers of dead souls were being infected each day.

The source must be destroyed in order to quell the aura of resentment!

The worst thing right now was that Yan Liu’er had the wedding gown on.

Helian Wei Wei was not sure if the Yan Liu’er right now was still her original self.

It was very likely that the aura of resentment on the wedding gown had spread into Yan Liu’er’s body.

Then again it was not necessarily so…

She did not know if Yan Liu’er was under spirit possession, because there was also another person wearing a wedding outfit!

Helian Wei Wei turned around to look at Wang Ling!

Her thoughts had always been clear and concise, even during times like this.

Marriage is a thing for two.

Since Yan Liu’er was wearing a bride’s wedding gown, Wang Ling would definitely be wearing the groom’s attire!

One of them was definitely corrupted by the aura of resentment.

Evil spirits, especially after a few ghosts were devoured until they congealed into an evil spirit, were normally more cunning than humans.

They would not stay in the wedding outfit obediently, just waiting for her to burn them.

When she realized the outfit was not right, the evil spirit definitely would have already attached itself to a person’s body.

Actually, it would be quite easy to get rid of the aura of resentment. By just burning the wedding outfits and killing both Yan Liu’er and Wang Ling, it could be cleansed completely.

However, Yan Liu’er was innocent.

In the circumstances of not knowing if she was possessed, Helian Wei Wei did not have the right to decide the fate of a kind-hearted girl.

Moreover, she would not have the heart to take action.

Which was why she had to be certain about whose body was being possessed by the evil spirit from the wedding outfit.

Was it Wang Ling… or Yan Liu’er?

Helian Wei Wei’s eyes skimmed over the bodies of the two people in detail.

Next, she started trying to wake Yan Liu’er up.

Helian Wei Wei’s method was never gentle.

Especially in this type of emergency situation, she was much more unrestrained.

Upon grabbing the cold water on the table, she splashed it onto Yan Liu’er.

This method would quickly wake a person up.

Not only can Helian Wei Wei save time by doing that, but she could also check if Yan Liu’er was possessed.

Because even though a person was in deep slumber, the receptors in their skin would remain alert.

If she did not wake up after being splashed with cold water, it would be a 100% chance that there was a problem.

But even if she woke up, it did not mean that she would be completely clear of suspicion, because it might be an act.

Helian Wei Wei narrowed her eyes, not wanting to miss any expression on Yan Liu’er’s face.

Yan Liu’er first groaned, then she opened her eyes. The moment she saw Old Lady Wang, she was obviously terrified as she quickly retreated backward saying, “Get away from me! Get away from me!”

Old Lady Wang opened her mouth, with tears on her face, she said, “Liu’er, I let you down.”

Helian Wei Wei kept quiet and continue observing Yan Liu’er.

Only then did Yan Liu’er noticed Helian Wei Wei standing in front of her, “You, it’s you, that Feng Shui specialist…” Then she saw Baili Jia Jue and was finally relieved, “Great, you both have come to save me!”

Helian Wei Wei muttered in response but continued with an unexpected question, “Wang Ling, Yan Liu’er, take off your wedding outfits.”

Wang Ling’s face changed slightly, “How did you know I’m also wearing a wedding outfit.” When he went to open the door just now, he especially put on a long cotton-padded jacket, no one should be able to see what he was wearing on the inside.

Helian Wei Wei glanced at him, “When there’s a bride there will always be a groom. Why? Don’t you want to take it off?”

“No, I was just wondering why do you want us to take off our clothes?” Wang Ling laughed coldly. “If you wanted to interrogate us, you can arrest us and lock us in the yamen. What is the meaning of this? I’m growing suspicious about whether if you were actually commissioned to investigate us?”

Old Lady Wang has never thought about it this way. Hearing what her son said, she eyed Helian Wei Wei with suspicion.

Helian Wei Wei did not say much to any of them, instead, she walked right up to Baili Jia Jue and slid her hands down his waist.

Baili Jia Jue did not stop her. With his thin lips in a smirk, he appeared wickedly handsome.

Even after patting him down many times, Helian Wei Wei could not feel anything. She was starting to wonder if he had forgotten to bring his command token.

The man then calmly spread out his fair and slender fingers in an elegant manner, in a clear voice he asked, “Is this what you’re looking for?”

Helian Wei Wei grunted in response and said, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier that you have the command token in your hand?”

“Seeing how enthusiastic you were as you felt around, how would I dare to disturb the missus.” In the last few words, Baili Jia Jue’s voice had a smile in it, “After all, I was the one who was being lavished on, of course, I must follow the rules.”

Helian Wei Wei was dumbstruck.

Rules my foot!

It was obvious that he was using a different method to take advantage of her!

Shameless, how shameless!

Of course Helian Wei Wei would never pick a fight with His Highness. Not one other person in the world could be as evil as His Highness.

His hand gestured the command token toward Wang Ling with an indifferent expression. “You are also a scholar. You should be able to recognise the words on this,” Baili Jia Jue said to him.

Looking at the golden plaque before him, Wang Ling’s eyes instantly widened. His gaze toward Baili Jia Jue had also changed!

That was because every scholar from the capital knew that the Retired Emperor once gave the Third Prince a golden plaque. The plaque not only symbolized the Third Prince’s identity, but also gave him a certain authority. ‘Sovereign in person’ were the words written on it!
