Chapter 9, Possession

Tan Xuan turned his head again to look at "Sun Shunli," his eyes filled with disdain. "When alive, you were haunted by ghosts; after death, you are still manipulated by them. Truly, you are an unwelcome presence in both life and death. Qian Bo must have been incredibly unfortunate to have met you."

Qian Bo does not care who the remaining person is; who it is does not matter. What is important is that the danger has not been eliminated. The unseen is even more dangerous than the seen. He urged from the other side of the bed, "Then hurry up."

Tan Xuan walked directly to Qian Bo's side, reached out and tapped twice on his elbow, breaking the grip of his hands around his neck. This action was both overt and covert; the overt tap was on Qian Bo, but the actual target was "Sun Shunli." Then, Tan Xuan pointed at Qian Bo's forehead, causing him to stagger back two steps and sit down on the bed, simultaneously separating "Sun Shunli" from Qian Bo completely

What do you consider yourself to be

Tan Xuan raised his right hand and took the initiative to press it against Xiao Di's chest. With his height and long arms, Tan Xuan had the advantage and was able to hold Xiao Di's body in place, but Xiao Di's hands were completely unable to reach Tan Xuan.

"Have you thought of any solutions?" Qian Bo asked eagerly

"What are you doing? Are you crazy? Hurry up and get up!" Qian Bo shouted desperately, using his feet to push and his hands to dig.

Tan Xuan took a cigarette from the box on the table, lit it, and after taking a puff, exhaled a thick cloud of smoke towards the disintegrating "Sun Shunli." The white smoke enveloped the black mist that was formed by "Sun Shunli." With a wave of his hand, the smoke gradually dissipated, and "Sun Shunli" completely vanished along with it.

Ah! You can only exorcise ghosts, but you cannot drive them away?" Hearing Tan Xuan at a loss, Qian Bo was also dumbfounded, "Then you think of a way, consider her identity. If anything happens to her, we two brothers will be in big trouble.

"Oh my! What else does she want to do?" As Qian Bo shouted, Xiao Di had already stood up straight from the bed, her gaze more fierce than that of the little brat who had entered earlier. The only thing that made Qian Bo feel somewhat reassured was that Xiao Di was not looking at him, but was instead staring intently at Tan Xuan, and she even raised her arms as if she was planning to pounce again like a hungry tiger.

Tan Xuan loosened the collar of his small flute, turned, and jumped off the bed to the side of the shadow. He then kicked that figure to the ground and rushed forward to unleash a flurry of punches and kicks. In just a short while, that person was completely beaten to a state of utter disarray, leaving not a trace behind.

You think you've figured it out, but you still want to escape? Not a chance

Tan Xuan was somewhat annoyed by the noise; who doesn't know that saving lives is of utmost importance? Even though the person in front of him had no other identity, he still had to save him. The key issue was how to save him

Unfortunately, apart from the waitstaff who are aware of her special status and know not to provoke her, no one else is listening to her at all. Not only have they not dispersed, but some individuals with a temper have already begun to retort.

She was possessed by a ghost; she had just soaked in the pool where Sun Shunli was murdered, and the malevolent energy clung to her, causing her own aura to become unstable, which allowed a certain individual to take advantage of the situation.

Tan Xuan had no time to care about what others said; his only concern now was the safety of Qian Bo. He hurriedly ran back to the lounge where Qian Bo was. Seeing Tan Xuan leave, Xiao Di quickly followed him and did not continue to entangle with those people

Complete the task

Ah... the figure of Xiao Di continuously leaned back, and finally, a shadow separated from Xiao Di's body and fled in panic.

Tan Xuan sighed, "This is a bit troublesome. It is currently hiding on this tigress. I am quite skilled at exorcising ghosts, and a few more wouldn't be a big deal, but I do not know how to drive them away. If I act directly, it would cause her considerable harm."

Everything is settled, Tan Xuan stood up and stretched his waist, snapping his fingers at Qian Bo

Xiao Di let out a scream upon seeing the situation in the room. She also saw Qian Bo being choked by someone, on the verge of being killed, and the assailant was someone she recognized—it was Sun Shunli, who had just died.

Tan Xuan ignored Qian Bo, extended his left hand to take down the pendant from his neck, relaxed his right hand to let Xiao Di come closer, then with his left hand tightly gripping the pendant, he suddenly slapped it down, striking Xiao Di's left chest at the heart position.

Tan Xuan thought for a moment and then his eyes lit up, excitedly saying: "I have it."

Ah... After surviving the calamity, Qian Bo gasped for breath, then, still in shock, pointed at the motionless figure in front of him and said to Tan Xuan, "Old Sun, he wants to kill me, how can he be Old Sun?"

"When a person dies, it is like a lamp extinguished; let your last breath dissipate." Regardless of whether the other party could understand, Tan Xuan raised his hand and struck Sun Shunli on the top of his head, causing Sun Shunli to scatter directly, transforming into wisps of black mist

Qian Bo's scream disturbed the sweet dreams of many people. By the time Tan Xuan and Xiao Di went upstairs, there were already quite a few guests who had been awakened peering out in the corridor, and some staff members had also come over to investigate the source of the noise.

Xiao Di's attack was interrupted. Reacting quickly, Tan Xuan withdrew his right hand from his chest to support Xiao Di's chin, pushing her head away to prevent her from striking again. He then extended his left hand between himself and Xiao Di to her lower abdomen, exerting force with both hands to lift her up. With a powerful thrust of his back and a push with his feet, he propelled Xiao Di onto the bed beside them

At the same time, he instructed the several waiters, "Quickly take these people back, what are they gathering here for?"

Ah! Little Di let out a cry and fell backward.

Outside, the conjectures were endless, while inside, Qian Bo, after getting up from the bed, lamented, "What is she doing? You almost crushed me to death"

Xiao Di displayed her dominance, sprinting ahead of everyone else, and then sternly admonished the crowd in the corridor: "What are you looking at! What is there to see? Haven't you ever heard of keeping quiet? If you want to listen, find a way to do it yourself. Don't look at what you shouldn't, and don't listen to what you shouldn't. Go back to your rooms immediately. I warn you not to cause trouble, or it will not be good for you."

The waiters outside and the onlookers were left dumbfounded, unable to see the specifics but not hindered in their imagination. They did not expect the intensity of the activities taking place here, nor the unprecedented nature of the gameplay. Some enthusiastic spectators had already begun to cheer for them. Fortunately, a quick-witted waiter hurriedly closed the door, as this lady was not of ordinary background. They would handle their own matters, as had been previously instructed.

Seeing that Tan Xuan had taken control of the situation, Qian Bo felt his heart leap into his throat. He stood up and approached Tan Xuan, weakly asking, "Tan, what is wrong with her? Why is she being so harsh on you? What did you do to her outside?"

Qian Bo took out a cigarette and placed it in his mouth, just about to express his heartfelt relaxation, when he suddenly froze upon seeing what was behind Tan Xuan, pointing with the cigarette in his hand at what was behind Tan Xuan

Seeing "Sun Shunli" ascend before him, Qian Bo finally let out a sigh of relief, rubbing his neck and exclaiming: "My goodness, what a scare! I almost got choked to death by that rascal"

You say there are still ghosts? Where did they come from? Why is it not over yet? Then hurry up and get rid of it

Caution

What gives you the right to meddle so much

With a swift strike, Xiao Di successfully knocked Tan Xuan down onto the bed where Qian Bo was located. Xiao Di pressed down on Tan Xuan, who in turn pressed down on Qian Bo, nearly causing the recently relaxed Qian Bo to spit blood.

The waiters outside were unaware of what kind of trouble they were witnessing, as all they could see was the customer inside choking himself quite fiercely, to the point where his eyes were nearly bulging out. They wanted to go in and help, but considering the woman's identity, they maintained a watchful stance.

One can recklessly jump down when going downstairs, but it is not so convenient for Tan Xuan when going upstairs, as he simply cannot jump up and can only hurriedly ascend the stairs.

Qian Bo's reminder came a bit late; by the time Tan Xuan turned around, the grimacing Xiao Di had already pounced, leaving no time to evade

Ah! Xiao Di let out a muffled grunt, while Qian Bo also let out a cry of agony. There was no way around it; Tan Xuan was exerting force on him, and he was the one getting hurt back and forth.

Upon hearing about the ghost, Qian Bo immediately retreated to the edge of the bed. Feeling that this side of the bed was still not safe enough, he crawled to the other side, his body trembling incessantly as if he were a sieve.

Alas! What a hassle

Ah!

Tan Xuan used one hand to block the small flute that could not be approached, while explaining to Qian Bo: "There are a total of three ghosts. The small one and Old Sun have already been eliminated by me. How could I forget this one that hasn't shown itself? This is the one that Sun Shunli carries with him. In the past, it was not considered a great evil, but unfortunately, just like Sun Shunli, it has become a servant ghost for someone else. Now it still wants to harm me, and I cannot allow it to exist any longer"

Unfortunately, the little flute at the top had no intention of getting up at all. It pressed both hands against Tan Xuan's head and lowered its head to bite at Tan Xuan's neck. Just as its mouth was about to reach Tan Xuan, a purple light flashed from the pendant on Tan Xuan's neck, causing the little flute to let out a tragic scream and turn its head aside.

Tan Xuan glanced at the now harmless "Sun Shunli," whom he had immobilized, and turned to explain to Qian Bo: "He is no longer the old Sun you once knew. He has become a ghostly minion, acting under the orders of others. It is not surprising that he wants to kill you; after all, even when he was alive, he approached you merely to exploit you. In the future, be sure to see clearly before making friends. Encountering someone like him, who wouldn't even spare you in death, and still treating him as a treasure is quite foolish. It is only because your ancestors' graves are emitting green smoke that you happened to meet me."

Fortunately, the few waiters were quite perceptive, directly stopping the onlookers and subtly explaining Xiao Di's identity to the crowd, which gradually calmed their rising excitement. Most people, upon learning of Xiao Di's identity, immediately went back to change their clothes and left, while only a few guests, with a clear conscience, were still reluctant to depart, continuing to observe from a distance.

Upon entering the room, Tan Xuan saw Qian Bo standing by the bed, being choked by a "familiar face." His eyes were wide open, his face was flushed red, and his mouth was making a small "mumbling" sound.

After Tan Xuan successfully struck, he did not stop. With his right hand, he pulled on Xiao Di's collar, preventing her from falling down, and then with his left hand, he struck again at Xiao Di's left chest, targeting the same spot as before. Concepts such as gender differences and cherishing the fairer sex were completely disregarded by Tan Xuan at this moment. One palm after another, each strike landed forcefully on Xiao Di's chest.

I am trying to find a solution, so please be quiet and let me think
