1139 Loved seeing one suffer

" Are you saying that this is a heavenly being?" When the two of them arrived at their home, Song Yan was worried that Fu Yu Sheng would offend Xiuyan by treating him as a pet snake, which was why she told him, the snake's origin. Of course, she wanted to first investigate the situation and then tell Fu Yu Sheng why Xiuyan found him but this man actually wanted to feed a rat to this heavenly snake! 

A rat! Did he even know that if he was to treat Xiuyan so willy-nilly like this, he could cause an entire city to collapse? As Xiuyan's temper was not the best among the many spiritual beings. 

In case he really brought a rat for Xiuyan to eat, Song Yan feared that they might not live for a long time.

Thus, Song Yan had no other choice but to disclose the identity of Xiuyan to Fu Yu Sheng who looked rather bewildered. With his head lowered he stared at the small snake in his palm and could not wrap his head around the fact that this small thing was actually a heavenly being. How could this snake be a heavenly creature? But if Song Yan was telling him that it was a heavenly being then he was going to believe it. 

" But why is he like this? I mean are heavenly beings this small?" Fu Yu Sheng questioned. He had never seen a heavenly being but he did not think that it should be this small either. 

Song Yan glanced at the snake who opened one of its ruby eyes and then looked at her before closing his eyes again. 

Song Yan: "…" I am glad you are finding this comfortable. 

" This is because his spiritual energy is lacking, usually he is bigger than the skyscrapers," answered Song Yan while looking at the white snake. Did he come looking for Fu Yu Sheng because her husband had a spiritual aura which was comparable to an Emperor? 

But that did not explain why this heavenly being was so attached to Fu Yu Sheng, it was as if he had known Fu Yu Sheng for a long time.

When this thought crossed Song Yan's head, she looked at Fu Yu Sheng with a narrowed gaze. However before she could think more deeply, Fu Yu Sheng who was sitting on the ground raised his head and asked, " Why did Xue Ping kill those women so ruthlessly?" 

This was something he could not understand. After all, the three girls could have been left alone and even if Xue Ping wanted to kill them, there was no need for her to be so ruthless. 

When Song Yan heard his query, her expression sank. She asked, " Are you sure that you want to listen to it?" 

Fu Yu Sheng nodded. Since he went to the warehouse, he would like to know the cause and effect of the incident. 

" You are right when you said that there was no need for Xue Ping to kill them so ruthlessly, she could have killed them painlessly as well and the effects would have been the same. But she did it because she liked killing them in such a way," Song Yan paused and then added, " And she wanted to make sure that there was no way those women would be able to turn their fate around." 

Song Yan had carefully analyzed Xue Ping's actions and her behaviour. After a long consideration, she concluded that Xue Ping was unhinged and jealous to the point that she could not see anyone doing better than her. 

With the exchange of the souls she could have left those three girls alive, even if they were alive nothing would have happened as no one would have believed them but Xue Ping with her selfishness did not want to leave them alive. She was afraid that those girls would come back to haunt her thus she decided to kill them. 

As for why she chose the most ruthless way… there was nothing else but her own sadistic satisfaction. 

Song Yan had seen many women like Xue Ping. And there was a reason why she felt that Xue Ping killed those three girls so ruthlessly for her own satisfaction. It was because she had seen a similar case when she was living as a ghost except that the one who killed the little girl was none other than her mother! 

She had paid special attention to that case as she could not understand how a mother could kill her daughter so ruthlessly but that case had refreshed her worldview. After a very deep and profound investigation of the case, she and Gu Yijin found out that the malicious ghost that was haunting the mother of that girl was none other than the daughter who was killed months ago. 

Turns out that the mother was jealous of her daughter who was doted on by her father. The mother thought that her daughter had taken away the love that her husband should have only for her and was now paying attention to their daughter, which was why she came to the ugly decision of killing her daughter. 

And she did not just kill her daughter, she killed her in a manner that was cruel and heartless. 

The mother brought her daughter to hiking where she stabbed her daughter and then hung her by the cliff with the help of a rope. The numerous rotting stabs and the vultures feeding on her flesh when she was yet to die was enough to create a grudge so deep that the daughter's spirit started to haunt her mother who lied to her husband that their daughter fell down the cliff and was lost, what was more, the woman never once told the name of the correct mountain where the daughter was hung when the investigation was going on.

If not for the fact that the mother found out that her daughter was the one who was haunting her, she would have never spoken the truth. 

Song Yan still felt a chill climb up her spine when she remembered what that woman said when her husband asked her why she killed their daughter so cruelly. Her words back then were ——

' Because I loved seeing her suffer!'
