Gu Yu did not hesitate to push out his energy and hit the female ghost. However, it did not cause any substantial damage to her. After all, this was Gu Zi t s body. He had to protect it well.

His energy only surrounded the female ghost and sent her to Yunbao.

The female ghost’s head was still covered by a red veil. She did not know what had happened. She struggled to escape, but Gu Yu did not give her a chance. She pressed her palms together and continuously transmitted energy.

Yunbao looked at the crystal ball in her hand and began to chant an incantation, wanting to purify the female ghost on Gu Zi’s body. She was currently in a remnant soul state, so purification was the best way to deal with “No, let go of me!” The female ghost felt the threat and shouted.

A gust of wind blew off her veil. The female ghost’s eyes turned red as she stared at Gu Yu and said, “How can you treat me like this? You clearly said that you wanted to marry me.”

She still recognized Gu Yu as Young Master Yue. It was unknown if she had really been deceived or if she was unwilling to wake up, but she kept cursing Gu Yu for being heartless.

Yunbao frowned and said, “The resentment in her body is getting stronger and stronger. I can’t control her anymore.”

At this moment, Yaya quickly ran over to help. However, Yaya had only been dead for a few decades. She could not compare to a ghost that had lived for hundreds of years. She was even beginning to be affected. She squatted on the ground and cried, “l want to go out. I want to go out.”

Yunbao did not have time to save Yaya. She could only increase the intensity of the energy transfer.

The female ghost tried her best to go in Gu Yu’s direction and said, “Brother Yue, why didn’t you come? Why did you let me wait here alone? I waited for you for three months and was mocked by everyone, but you didn’t even show your face. You only got someone to pick me up when I was despised by everyone. Have you forgotten the sweetness and vows of the past?”

Gu Yu did not expect Young Master Yue to do this. Even though he knew that he had let the female ghost down, he had indeed said that he wanted to marry her, but he did not appear for three months. Under the social atmosphere hundreds of years ago, this action was no different from killing this woman.

He didn’t know what to say, but the most important thing now was to take back Gu Zi’s body. He closed his eyes and chanted an incantation, hoping to calm the female ghost down for the time being.

The female ghost had wandered in the human world for hundreds of years. Her soul could no longer reincarnate. After being purified, returning was naturally the best outcome. Otherwise, her soul would be tortured forever.

However, the female ghost clearly did not think that way. She even lay on the ground and crawled forward so that she could reach Gu Yu’s side. “Brother Yue, I know you hate me for killing your wife, but you said that you would marry me if she wasn’t there. Why did you lie to me?”

“He’s been lying to you.” Gu Yu sighed. “l don’t know if he likes your wealth or your beauty, but that’s not love.”

This sentence exposed the female ghost’s self-deception. She hid in this barrier because she could not accept reality and would forever repeat the day before the wedding and forget the pain after that.

She fell to the ground and cried sadly. “He said that he loved me and was willing to give up everything for me. That’s why I was willing to aggrieve myself and marry into the family as a concubine. However, when his wife tortured me, he didn’t say anything. He only watched as I was bullied every day. Then, he hugged me at night and told me to endure.”

Yunbao frowned and said, “This is a lie. If you really love someone, how can you watch her be bullied?”

The female ghost naturally understood this logic. She lowered her head and said, “That’s why I want him to pay the price. I want his family to be destroyed and he will have nothing.”

When she said this, she began to laugh, but there was clearly sadness in her laughter.

After laughing, the female ghost looked up at Gu Yu, her eyes unprecedentedly clear. She said, “The show is over. Since the two of you have entered my barrier, don’t even think about leaving.”

With that, she easily broke free from Gu Yu’s energy. She left Gu Zi t s body and revealed her original appearance. Her snow-white skin and red lips were an unforgettable beauty.

Yunbao quickly dragged Gu Zi away from the ground, leaving the crystal ball to temporarily resist the female ghost. Gu Yu was afraid that the female ghost would hurt the two children, so he took out his wand and attacked with all his might.

However, the female ghost who had returned to the barrier was even stronger. She raised her hand and blocked Gu Yu’s attack. The jade ring on her hand emitted a fine light.

Yunbao asked Glutinous Rice Ball to protect Gu Zi. Then, she returned to the crystal ball and sat down. She pressed her palms together and said, “Spirits of heaven and earth. Please help me..”
