Chapter 422 The Spiritual Body’s Lament
She looked at the person who was fully resisting the pain: “He is indeed not a person of extreme evil, nor is he unfilial, but he is someone with no fate with me.”
Jiang Mengyu, who was enduring the pain, suddenly looked over, “Miss, the fact that I could come here and see you again signifies that we are fated.”
Mengyu said indifferently, “Whether we are fated or not is for me to say, and not you. Besides, although you are not a person of extreme evil and not unfilial, your illness is nevertheless a karma-related ailment.”
Xie Xinyuan was shocked. Under the surge of shock, his headache seemed to have eased a bit. His sharp gaze shot towards Mengyu, “What are you trying to say?”
Mengyu said lightly, “Director Xie, as I said before, you are not a person of extreme evil, nor are you unfilial, but you have committed sins, and this illness of yours is a consequence of those sins.”
Indeed, using her Divine Sense, Mengyu saw beside this Director Xie’s head, two spiritual bodies, one large and one small, with the larger female spiritual body constantly pounding on his head.
And the small spiritual body, on the other hand, was always looking at him with resentful eyes.
For such spiritual bodies that can linger in the world, they usually carry a strong obsession. This female spiritual body, with a child following him, was undoubtedly wronged by him.
Xie Xinyuan was even more astounded.
Before coming here, he was not sure whether the girl he was seeking actually had real abilities or was a swindler.
It was only rumored that this girl specialized in treating bizarre illnesses. Since his own body showed no signs of illness yet his head was in severe pain, which was truly strange, he followed his son’s advice and came.
But now, after hearing Jiang Mengyu’s words, he suddenly felt a bit regretful – he felt that this young lady did not seem like a swindler, but rather, his own secret might be found out by someone else.
Meanwhile, the woman, upon hearing Mengyu speak of Director Xie’s karma-induced illness and originally thinking that living people couldn’t see her, suddenly understood: This girl could see her!
She immediately grabbed the child and rushed towards Mengyu. Once she reached Mengyu, she knelt down, “Immortal, please save us.”
Actually, Mengyu could not see spiritual bodies with her naked eye.
However, for cultivators, what can their Divine Sense not see? Seeing the woman pulling the child over to bow, she could see it herself, and quickly avoided.
“Just say whatever you have to say, don’t do that.”
Xie Xinyuan and Xie Hongjun were startled to see Mengyu suddenly talking to herself and making an evasive gesture.
That Xie Hongjun, upon hearing Mengyu would not treat his father’s illness, just assumed Mengyu wanted more money. Now seeing Mengyu acting in such a way, he thought Mengyu was playing tricks, his eyes flashed with disdain.
But Xie Xinyuan was different. Although he originally did not believe in ghosts and deities, this illness of his was truly mysterious, as he often dreamed of a young woman whose face he couldn’t make out, hitting his head and causing him unbearable pain.
Moreover, after Mengyu started behaving strangely, his headache had eased. Therefore, Mengyu’s actions only made him feel uneasy inside.
Seeing Mengyu rejecting her worship, the woman also had to stop, wearing a pained expression and she began to weep and plead, “Immortal, my name is Zhou Wangmei. I was betrothed to this Xie Xinyuan since a young age, often going to his house to help with chores. Sometimes when it got late at his place, I would stay over, and one time, he deceived me.
With a child in my belly, I wanted to marry quickly. But to my dismay, he grew tired of the old and sought the new, betraying me for another woman, yet lied to me that he was too busy with his career to marry at the moment, and asked me to terminate the pregnancy.
My own child, how could I bear to abort it, so I insisted on getting married as soon as possible. But—”
