Chapter 40: Don’t Have Long to Live

After hearing Yun Qin’s words, Xu Guang’s heart skipped a beat. He didn’t expect Yun Qin to be so brave. She didn’t even know what old Master Song needed her to do, yet she still accepted the request.

As for the situation that the Song family’s old master needed to resolve, how could it be easy to handle?

Old Master Song looked at Yun Qin’s confident expression and immediately became interested. He asked, “Young lady, you’re so young, yet you’re sure that you can accept this request?”

Yun Qin smiled and said, “Grandpa Song, other than me, I’m afraid that no one else in the capital can accept it.”

Are you kidding me? How could any unorthodox characters be compared to her identity as the ghost hunter appointed by Hades?

“Hahaha, not bad. You, young lady, are interesting. Alright, follow me.” Grandpa Song laughed loudly, his eyes full of admiration. Putting aside Yun Qin’s abilities, just her courage and self-confidence made him look at her in a new light.

Was everything settled just like that?

Xu Guang followed behind Grandpa Song and Yun Qin in a daze, listening to the two conversing with each other in a very familiar manner.

“Little girl, How old are you?”

“21.”

“So young! How long have you been at this?”

“More than ten years. Grandpa Song, don’t worry.”

“Oh, alright, then let me test you. Can you predict my lifespan?”

Hearing this, Yun Qin stopped and carefully looked at Grandpa Song’s face. The old man in front of her had a ruddy complexion and a spirited gaze. He looked very strong and healthy.

However, the only suspicious thing was that when Yun Qin activated her psychic eyes, which allows her to see ghosts and spirits, she saw that there was a red murderous aura between Grandpa Song’s brows. It was piercing through Grandpa Song’s brain.

She was shocked for a moment. When she saw the mysterious look in the old man’s eyes, she composed herself and replied, “You are… not going to live much longer.”

When Xu Guang heard Yun Qin’s reply, his legs went weak and he almost knelt down.

If he had known that Yun Qin was so capricious, he never would have come. Old Master Song’s anger was not something that he and Yun Qin, two juniors, could withstand.

Just as Xu Guang wanted to cry and was racking his brain to think of a way to appease the old man, he heard old Master Song laugh out loud. He praised heartily, “You are very capable. Not bad! Not bad!”

This time, it was Yun Qin’s turn to be surprised. This was the first time she saw someone laugh so heartily after hearing that he didn’t have long to live.

As they were speaking, the three of them walked up to a small and unique courtyard. Just standing outside the door, she could see the flowerbeds and waterside pavilions inside. It was exceptionally elegant.

“Number two, you can wait outside.” Old Master Song turned around and nonchalantly instructed before leading Yun Qin in.

When they reached a small winding corridor, old Master Song opened his mouth and asked, “Do you see anything unusual here?”

Yun Qin felt a strong sense of evil energy ever since she entered this small courtyard. However, this evil energy was different from that of an ordinary ghost. It seemed to be some kind of malicious curse.

“Is this place cursed?”

Yun Qin asked hesitantly. However, when she saw that the red murderous aura on old Master Song’s forehead became exceptionally strong after entering, stirring his vitality, she immediately asked in shock, “Grandpa Song, who are you trying to exchange your life with?”

Seeing that Yun Qin deciphered his intentions so quickly, Grandpa Song was relieved. He smiled in relief and said, “That’s right. What I want to ask you to do is to exchange my life.”

Yun Qin’s expression immediately became awkward. She was able to recognize this kind of sinister life-changing technique purely because of her psychic eyes. Not to mention that she doesn’t want to do it to begin with, even if she were to exchange someone’s life, she wasn’t capable of doing it.

When Grandpa Song saw Yun Qin’s frown, he thought that she felt that this kind of thing was too vicious. He immediately explained, “Little girl, don’t misunderstand. I want to exchange my life, not to harm people, but to save people.”

Hearing this, Yun Qin’s brows relaxed a little. She asked, “Why?”

“This traces back to the Song family’s ancestors.” Grandpa Song gestured for Yun Qin to sit down on the wooden chair beside him. Then, he began to tell her the story.

“When the Song family’s ancestors made a name for themselves, they had a feud with a Taoist priest because they sealed off a Taoist temple. Not long after, they discovered that the Taoist priest died in this courtyard.”

Grandpa Song tapped his foot on the moss-covered floor and gestured to Yun Qin that the place where the incident he mentioned happened was this courtyard..
