1121 The true identity
Madam Liang sighed and then placed her tea cup on the table before she placed her hands on her lap. She looked at Song Yan and Fu Yu Sheng solemnly before saying, " To be honest, no one would have believed me even if I told them about what I said. No one believes in the supernatural unless they run into them. I only noticed the changes in Xue Ping and Yi Yu because Yi Yu was friends with my daughter but later on, my daughter told me that Yi Yu was no longer the same. She was selfish and conceited, she would take things from my daughter but never return them, this was not the Yi Yu, we knew. My daughter who was a naive young child back then did not know anything better and she blurted out naively that 'You are not Yi Yu' in front of the changed one and three days someone kidnapped my daughter, it was really terrible experience for our family."
" You suspect that it was Xue Ping who somehow exchanged her soul with Yi Yu and planned the kidnapping?" Fu Yu Sheng asked sharply.
The woman hesitated for a while but then she nodded. " But I was not sure, which was why when the police rescued my daughter, I invited Yi Yu and her mother to my home for a celebratory dinner. That was when I noticed that there was something weird about Yi Yu. Although she was dull and gloomy because of the death of her father and the torment that she had to face at the hands of her stepmother, her eyes were lively and full of energy and optimism, like these days will get better. Occasionally, she would show off her skills in music and singing, Yi Yu was not only good with studying but she was also skilled in music. I watched her since she was a child, how can I be wrong? I knew that she had endless fortune in the past but then on the night of dinner…"
Madam Liang shook her head in disappointment as she continued," I did not see that shine in her eyes, when I asked her to play the violin, she actually refused saying that she broke her finger and could not play anymore. My daughter later told me that Yi Yu was making the same excuse again and again for months and she even cancelled her music club membership instead she went to the drama one. Because she was good-looking many thought that she was going to succeed though some felt like she was changing too fast while the adults thought that it was her being rebellious."
It wasn't that Madam Liang did not think of telling this to someone but after what happened with her daughter, she decided to keep it to herself but when 'Xue Ping' vanished she suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
Song Yan pursed her lips and did not say anything but Madam Liang finally got someone to tell everything that she knew, how could she let this opportunity slip past? She continued to prattle away, " I heard from my daughter that there was a new girl in her class and Yi Yu was really envious of her because that girl came from a rich family. She would often find trouble with her and given that the girl was really good at studying and extracurricular activities, it only further fueled her anger and jealousy. And one day, Xue Ping vanished and a few months later Yi Yu vanished as well."
" Is that so?" Song Yan had already guessed that it was Xue Ping who was the crux of this situation. She married Master Ying and approached Yi Yu, she then went on to replace her soul with Yi Yu before forcing Yi Yu's soul inside her original body. This would explain why ' Xue Ping' listened to her daughter, that was because it was Yi Yu all along!
And that was the reason why she searched for celestial masters because she wanted to exchange her soul back!
But Xue Ping found out which was why she took care of Yi Yu whose soul was locked inside a body that did not belong to her before leaving Yi Yu for a while. But as her selfishness and greed were not sated, she turned her attention to Ji Ziyi. However, getting close to Ji Ziyi was not easy which was why she targeted the nanny next to her.
She first exchanged her soul with Gu Lao in an attempt to exchange her soul with Ji Ziyi but unfortunately for her, she could not make a move on Ji Ziyi who fired her. As for what Ji Zhuang Guang said about Ji Ziyi getting worse in her study it must be because of the unfinished spell that Xue Ping left behind.
Xue Ping lived outside for a while before she returned to look for Ji Ziyi as she had not given up on her life.
She then evoked Ji Ziyi's sympathy and then moved in with her, once she succeeded in dropping Ji Ziyi's guards, she then made a move on her and exchanged her soul with Ji Ziyi before killing Ji Ziyi who was trapped in Gu Lao's body!
Fu Yu Sheng also understood what was going on the two of them looked at one another before turning to look at Madam Liang.
It was a very simple yet very vicious scheme. When they thought about how Xue Ping who was in her forties was actually exchanging souls with little girls and was even living as one, they could not help but shudder.
Song Yan guessed that Yi Yu, Gu Lao and Ji Ziyi. These three women were most likely killed on the same spot which was why their souls amalgamated as they held grudge against the same person. With their grudges, it was not a surprise that they were so strong while dealing with Xue Ping. That woman had ruined three lives it would be a surprise that they were going to leave her alone!
-----------------
No wonder Xue Ping was scared, she had ghosts in her heart and could not settle down which was why she was begging Song Yan to exorcise the ghost as she knew what she had done.
Song Yan did not linger at Madam Liang's house, she even handed her S-level protection talismans and drew an array for free. As the woman helped her, there was no point in her being stingy with her, in case Xue Ping came to look for her, it would be troublesome!
Madam Liang was touched. In fact all these years she was quite scared. Xue Ping was not a good woman, back then she doubted that her family suspected her identity and in case Xue Ping came looking for her again, what would she do? Now that she had these talismans, she could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Once they were done Song Yan and Fu Yu Sheng stepped out of the manor which belonged to the Liang family. While Fu Yu Sheng's expression was dark, Song Yan's was pondering. It seemed like the case that she took was really a tricky one.
" You should leave her alone," after a long time Fu Yu Sheng spoke up. It was not that he was looking down on Song Yan's skills but Xue Ping was really tricky and treacherous. She killed three women and not one murder was found out. A woman like her was not someone who could be caught easily if they were to chase after her.
" I cannot," Song Yan narrowed her eyes as she thought about the future that she had seen. The fact that Tang Zhou died could now be explained, the reason he was killed was because exchanging the soul required blood sacrifice, most probably Tang Zhou was that blood sacrifice!
She did not know the entire process but Song Yan did hear that the sacrifice who was killed while exchanging souls with someone suffered the most, no wonder Xue Ping who was now living as Ji Ziyi had no qualms calling for a dark celestial master. She only cared for her life and her life alone!
They were only thinking about the women who died, as for the men whom Xue Ping killed as a source of Yang replenishing, what about them? Their souls were destroyed!
No wonder Tang Zhou's body looked so terrible it was all because of that woman!
How could she leave such a woman without her being caught?
" That woman is a danger, if I don't deal with her then I am worried that she would harm even more people, I cannot leave her alone," Song Yan knew that Xue Ping was like a sucker who would never give up on fortune and fame. If she was left untamed then she would harm a lot of people, something that she could not allow to happen!
Fu Yu Sheng was not willing for his wife to get entangled with the likes of Xue Ping but given that she was not willing to leave this case he could only agree with her.
