Chapter 28 Exorcism II
Although Su Jiashi didn''t agree with Ning Siyao''s proposal, this was still for the good of Su manor.
Regardless of how much she liked Qingyan, she couldn''t ruin the honor and prosperity of the entire Su
manor for the sake of Su Qingyan alone.
Su Jiashi nced to the smiling Qingyan. For the first time, she felt that this granddaughter before her,
she didn''t really understand all that much; or in other words, she didn''t understand her at all.
This granddaughter in the past would only ever stubbornly try to escape, sometimes she even felt that
Su Qingyan wasn''t really Su Yun''s real daughter. Else why was Su Qingyu that outstanding, when
Qingyan appeared so unbearably rough.
But looking at it now, this young granddaughter of hers really was the daughter of a General.
Ning Siyao very quickly invited over the so called Taoist priest. Unfortunately, this priest Qingyan knew
very well, because this was precisely the priest that once framed her as the ''Demon Empress''. Seems
like he was going to use the same method again this time.
Heh. Qingyan coldly sneered in her head.
Did he really think that he could use the same method to frame her as the country destroying ''Demon
Queen'' again. Oh. No, ''demoness'' was it?
Although she was quite looking forward to seeing what kind of stories this Taoist priest woulde up

with to fool this olddy.
Qingyan leisurely twisted the jade ring on her ring finger.
"Greetings old madam." When Priest Yan looked to Su Jiashi he politely spoke, "While I was
coincidently passing by, I noticed that there was something amidst about the manor, thus came to see.
And to my surprise, I discovered that this manor had a heavy demon aura."
Su Jiashi look to the Taoist priest before her d in a yellow priest attire and speaking in full
confidence, but even so she still didn''t trust what he said much.
Noticing the uncertainty in Su Jiashi, the priest continued, "Some time ago, the Su fourth miss once fell
into the pond, and after waking, her personality changed drastically. Am I correct?" As he said this he
directed his gaze towards Su Qingyan that was sitting next to her.
Chai Yiyun seemed to have immediately understood what the priest meant and faced him with a smile,
"That''s right, after that fourth miss woke up it was as if she''d be another person." She also
nced at Qingyan, "Perhaps the fourth miss got possessed by some demon?" She nced at
Qingyan again before taking a few steps back.
The Taoist priest nced at Su Qingyan before crying out in disdain, "Precisely." He swung the
horsetail whisk in hand towards Qingyan, "Demon, quickly show yourself."
Su Qingyan directly passed through the whisk in his hand and casted it aside. She lifted her head and
coldly stared him down, "I wonder if Priest Yan believes in karma?"
The priest snorted and once again swung his whisk, but Su Qingyan still easily caught it. Although she
didn''t have much inner force now, she had been secretly practicing the ''Xuannu Dark Arts'' that
Weisheng Junmo taught her in her former life.
In her past life, Qin Qingyan was too naive. In the end she, could only watch as she buried herself in
huge fire.
And the Su Qingyan of this life, not only need to cultivate internal energy, even the hidden weapons
she was skilled at before, she needed to continue practicing till perfection.
"Demon, hurry and show your true form before me. I shall expel your soul from this world." The priest
swung his whisk at her again and again. He then directly lunged at her throat, but who knew that he
would be suddenly shoved away.
Just when the priest want to open his mouth and say something, an ice cold voice sounded, "Priest
Yan, I hope you''ve been well."
When the priest looked up, he saw Su Qingyan in the embrace of a purple d young man. And as he
directed his gaze upwards, he instinctively took a few steps back, because this person was precisely
the one that had been searching for him this whole time, Murong Jingxuan.
As Su Qingyan was protected in that warm embrace, she strangely felt a small ripple in her heart. In
the past, Weisheng Junmo also protected her like this.
"Greetings, Shizi." Su Jiashi slowly spoke, after clearly seeing who it was. "I wonder if Shizi can put
down my granddaughter first."
Murong Jingxuan listened to Su Jiashi and ced down Su Qingyan to the side, saying with a smile,
"There''s no need for such formalities madam. I just couldn''t bear to watch this old priest tantly try to
deceive you in an attempt to harm the fourth miss. That''s why I had to intervene."
When the priest saw Murong Jingxuan, he instinctively wanted to run away, however, unexpectedly he
was caught at the door by Fengqing. At once, that priest kneeled to the ground, "Shizi, please just
forgive me."
When everyone saw the priest''s current state, not only were they greatly shocked, but confused as to
what was going on. Presently, even Ning Siyao was perplexed at this situation.
"Madam, unbeknownst to you, this priest is a criminal that the entire Nanchen country is hunting down."
Murong Jingxuan pointed to the priest with a smile, "This priest premeditated the death of the previous
Nanchen Empress. He once dered that the former Nanchen Empress was a country destroying
''Demon Queen'', and unable to bear the humiliation, the former Empress burned herself to death to
prove her innocence. As for him, he became the target of the Nanchen government." Murong Jingxuan
turned back to look at the priest with his eyebrows raised. "I wonder if what I''ve said is correct?"
As Ning Siyao listened to Murong Jingxuan''s words, she uncontrobly widened her eyes. Although
she did ask her older brother to find her a Taoist priest, but who knew this Taoist priest had a past like
that.
Su Jiashi listened to what Murong Jingxuan said and frowned. Nanchen''s previous Empress had a
clean background and was born from an influential military family. She once had the fortune to meet
this Empress when she attended the pce banquet.
The Taoist priest''s head dropped even lower. He''d never thought that when Qilian Qingyi had asked
him to frame the previous Empress as a demoness that things would end up like this. Despite
managing to escape with the help of Qilian Qingyi, the whole journey was rough, and he had long used
up all his money.
That''s why, that day when that young man found him, he agreed to it without even thinking. Plus, the
reward was quite significant.
But who knew that he would actually meet his demise!
"So it turns out that this priest is just a swindling liar, oh my." Su Qingyan purposely said in a regretful
tone, "And here I thought, Priest Yan would be able to see my true form."
Listening to Qingyan''s words, Murong Jingxuan grinned, "If the fourth miss is a monster, then the entire
Su manor would definitely be a human devouring den. Else how could Miss Su end up like this today."
How could Su Jiashi not noticed the real meaning behind Murong Jingxuan''s words. The people of the
Su manor were all undoubtedly eyeing Qingyan like a prey; there were even some that wanted to kill
her. Unfortunately, she was getting old and didn''t have the power to protect Qingyan. But looking at her
now, even if it''s a hundred years from now, she would have no regrets.
"Thank you, Shizi for saving me. Else, even if I was to jump into the Yellow river, I still wouldn''t be able
to wash away my sins." Su Qingyan looked into Murong Jingxuan''s eyes with a smile. Soon after, she
looked towards the Taoist priest, her tone abruptly turning ice cold, "I wonder if Priest Yan believes in
karma?"
