Detective Ghost Empress

The deceased could never ask a human to help them because if they do that then it will certainly disrupt the flow of the world every time the deceased needed help from the celestial master they will either have to disrupt the flow of the world themselves or haunt their loved ones until they asked for help in their stead until then the celestial masters could not do anything for them.

Even if they wanted to, even when they could see what was going on they have to turn a blind eye to everything because that was how the world was Liu Hui Ying has seen what happened when a celestial master tried to interfere in a matter that wasn’t brought to them by a human and the consequences of going against the heavens were something she would rather not take again.

” You are overestimating your worth in my life,” Liu Hui Ying sighed as she walked towards the other side of the room and sat down on the bed after kicking off her night robe to the side and then crossing her legs, her actions caused her calves that shone like jade to show and Zhai Tianyu who has never seen a woman’s body before immediately turned his head to the side upon seeing the skin that was revealed in front of him.

Liu Hui Ying who was used to wearing two-piece bikinis when she was in the modern world did not understand the actions of the man in front of her, instead, she continued speaking, ” I did not do this because I wanted to take revenge on your grandmother–” when Zhai Tianyu heard her he turned to look at her in disbelief despite his desire to not look at Liu Hui Ying exposed calves.

“Are you speaking this with your consciousness clean, my queen?” He asked as he looked at Liu Hui Ying with a stunned look on his face, as far as he knew he was very much aware of how petty Liu Hui Ying could be, this woman wouldn’t let go of the smallest grievance for her to leave the matter alone of her getting humiliated back then was something that was simply impossible.

Under Zhai Tianyu’s questioning gaze, Liu Hui Ying did feel a little guilty but then that small guilt was washed away when she remembered how this man killed this woman whose body she was occupying, she cleared her throat and then raised her hand as she pointed at Zhai Tianyu and said, ” Look, I have no qualms with you as long as you stay away from me I don’t care what you do, even if I do have one with you, I am not cowardly enough to attack someone else in your stead.”

” Then how do you explain this?” He asked as he lifted the mirror he was holding onto such that Liu Hui Ying could see the gruesome words that were written on it with a red blood-like thing. ” If you did not send one of your ghosts to scare my grandmother, who else can do something like this? I mean do you see any sense in scaring someone like this and then leaving without assassinating them?”

Liu Hui Ying looked at the words, earlier she only glanced at them so she did not see what was written on them but now that she was seeing it much more carefully, she could see that Zhai Chenguang have gone straight for the hit by smashing the hammer straight on the head of the nail.

.....

Her lips curled but she didn’t tell what was written on the bronze plate to Zhai Chenguang instead she raised her brow and said, ” So you do admit that if I wanted to kill you, then I could have done that cleanly right?”

Zhai Tianyu paused as he looked at her with a helpless expression on his face before he closed his eyes and said, ” Are you trying to show off your powers to me? Is there a need to say such things I can see that you are indeed strong enough to take my family down if you want to...” he paused and then added swiftly, ” I have no intention of killing you at the moment–”

” It will be better if you don’t even think about it or else I will make your entire family suffer,” before Zhai Tianyu could finish speaking Liu Hui Ying interrupted him causing him to suffer in silence, this woman! She really did not let anyone have the top hand over her in any situation, does she?

” Yes, like you said I fully understand that there is nothing that I can do against you, so would you mind stop giving my family trouble like this?” He deadpanned while pointing at the mirror that had the red words written on it. Zhai Tianyu did not know what to do with Liu Hui Ying, she wasn’t someone whom he could deal with easily which was why he was willing to turn a blind eye to her actions, anyway the woman said that she will leave this place sooner or later there was no need for him to make any move against her.

Though he felt slightly upset about her leaving but then he thought about how she was in between his goal and the decline of the Liu family, and he was willing to suppress that feeling in his heart.

” That’s where you are wrong, I am not the one who is giving your family any trouble,” Liu Hui Ying leaned back on her bed as she looked at Zhai Tianyu with a smile. “It’s your aunt who is giving the trouble to your mother.”
