Yao Feiran didn't intend to go, but she still reported it to the Paranormal Bureau. Her intuition was usually right; there was a high probability that illegal cultivators were causing the disturbance.

Just then, the class monitor called.

"Yao, Wang Yiyu has woken up and wants to see you."

"it is good."

Yao Feiran went to the hospital. It is said that Wang Yiyu has regained consciousness. When she arrived, Wang Yiyu's previously lifeless eyes suddenly lit up.

His face was so thin it was unrecognizable, like a thin layer of skin connecting to the bones. His parents rushed over that night, their faces haggard.

I want to talk to you alone.

After everyone around them left, Wang Yiyu said, "You were so sure I would die, did you discover something?"

"I don't know anything."

His expression turned agitated: "Since you knew I was framed, why didn't you tell me sooner? We dated for a while, after all. How could you be so malicious?"

Yao Feiran watched as his face gradually became ferocious, but she remained unfazed.

"Your death is none of my business. I warned you before, but you didn't take it seriously."

She herself had only been learning for half a year and didn't understand many of the rituals.

"No, you have to save me. That woman took away my lifespan. Every time she brought me home, she would deliberately drug me and ask for my birth date and time."

"I can't save you. I've already called the police. Let's see what they can do then."

"It's all your fault! If you weren't so bad, how could I have been so easily seduced by Chen Xi?"

Yao Feiran looked at his almost frantic appearance, as if he had lost his mind.

Wang Yiyu's parents rushed in when they heard the commotion. They saw Wang Yiyu's aggressive behavior and quickly restrained him.

Wang Yiyu's mother said, "I'm sorry, daughter, the doctor said he also has some mental problems. Yiyu was wrong to break up with you back then. You should leave now."

Yao Feiran turned and left. When she returned to school, she met Xu Yueyin and told her about it.

Xu Yueyin: "Grandma said this should be a life-borrowing technique."

"Is this thing easy to borrow?"

"It's not easy to borrow; you need to generate a matching birth chart, and then you should also ask a ghost for help."

"Can the loan be reinstated?"

"It's impossible; there was no turning back once the ceremony began."

Just then, Yao Feiran's phone rang; it was from the Paranormal Bureau.

"Ms. Yao, we need your assistance with our investigation."

"I don't know much about this life-borrowing technique. Could you bring someone with you?"

"Is it your friend Xu Yueyin?"

"Yes."

"Can."

Yao Feiran took Xu Yueyin to Chen Xi's house. As soon as they entered, they felt a chill. There was a black and white photo of a man in the room, and a broken jar was lying on the ground.

Inside the room lay a woman who looked to be in her fifties, wearing medical equipment, lying on a home hospital bed.

Chen Xi stood in front and shouted, "What do you want? My mother is sick and can't be disturbed."

"Miss Chen, you should know about Wang Yiyu's matter, shouldn't you?"

"So what if I broke up with him?" Chen Xi retorted sarcastically. "Why are you all bothering with this?"

"His consciousness is fading and his breathing is becoming weak; he doesn't have much longer to live."

"He deserves to die soon. Why should I care whether he lives or dies after we break up?"

"We suspect that you used a life-borrowing technique to transfer Wang Yiyu's lifespan."

"What are you saying? I don't understand."

Chen Xi's eyes flickered slightly, but her expression remained indifferent.

Yao Feiran sensed the presence of a ghost from the broken jar, while Xu Yueyin saw a yellow talisman with her birth date and time engraved behind the black and white photo.

Yao Feiran remembered Wang Yiyu's birthday; the date and time matched in the Chinese zodiac, only differing in the hour and minute. Yao Feiran had never asked him, but she figured it was pretty much the right one.

"Can we disrupt this ritual?"

Xu Yueyin pulled out the yellow talisman and said, "To successfully borrow a life, you need to pay a price. You should know what price Chen Xi paid to borrow a life."

Yao Feiran pondered for a moment: "I heard that Chen Xi usually paid for Wang Yiyu's expenses, and the expenses were quite high. During that period, he often bought new clothes, each costing several thousand yuan."

"That should be it. If you want to break this ritual, the only way is for Wang Yiyu to return the money. However, the lost lifespan is probably gone. At most, you'll have a few years left."

Yao Feiran's lips twitched. So this was the so-called "life-saving money"? Wang Yiyu was probably smug before, thinking that the rich woman was beautiful and willing to pay him, but it turned out to be the price that had been clearly stated.

"We've found a way to disrupt the ritual; we need to discuss it with Wang Yiyu's parents."

The staff member suddenly said to Xu Yueyin, "Did your grandmother say that?"

Xu Yueyin nodded.

Yao Feiran guessed that Xu Fenglan used to be quite famous, but later gave up everything to retire in the village.

Chen Xi shouted, "No! I'll kill you all!"

She glared fiercely at Yao Feiran: "It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, they wouldn't have noticed anything amiss. I'm going to kill you."

With a click, the chill in the room intensified, and in a corner unnoticed by anyone, the person in the black and white photo suddenly revealed a strange smile.

The highest-ranking man in the paranormal bureau suddenly reached out and forcefully grabbed his own neck.

"Xie Chen!"

Another staff member took out a bell and slowly started shaking it. Xie Chen's hand, which was gripping his neck, stopped, but only a second had passed.

Bang! The bell shattered on the ground, and Xie Chen began to frantically pinch himself again.

Hmm? This paranormal bureau doesn't seem to be very powerful.

Yao Feiran quickly took out exorcism talismans and stuck four or five on herself and one on Xie Chen.

The effect was immediate; Xie Chen let go and collapsed to the ground.

"Come on, everyone get some."

Yao Feiran distributed talismans to everyone like a package. Xu Yueyin received four talismans, and she immediately recognized them as talismans for exorcising evil spirits and suppressing demons. A look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"There's another ghost inside, probably close to the level of a ghost king. Chen Xi is relying on this ghost to assist in the ritual."

Wu Tianyong breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, he had called Yao Feiran over; otherwise, things would probably have been much worse.

Yao Feiran was also thinking about it. She had called the police before because she thought the paranormal bureau could handle the matter.

The result looks rather weak?

It seems that becoming a Celestial Master is not so easy.

Fortunately, the other party didn't know what Yao Feiran was thinking, otherwise she would have suffered a heart attack. She was almost at the level of a Ghost King, which would require a Xuan-rank Celestial Master to deal with. People like them at the lowest level were basically at the Yellow rank, and some couldn't even reach the Yellow rank.

Because everyone else carried talismans, the ghost couldn't get close, except for Chen Xi and her mother.

Chen Xi seemed not to understand the situation and pointed directly at Yao Feiran, saying, "Father, kill this woman."
