Chapter 90: Alone Time
The word ‘Yin’ was the signature on the bottom corner. Song Yin wrote that when he was ten years old.
“He was only ten years old, yet his calligraphy was already so good…”
Yun Qin gasped in surprise and continued to admire it.
At this moment, there was a light knock on the door. Yun Qin was surprised for a moment and then quickly went to open the door.
Grandpa Song was standing outside the door.
“I sent everyone away.” Old Master Song raised his eyebrows and said. Then, he looked at Song Yin, who was sleeping soundly on the bed.
Yun Qin nodded. After Old Master Song sat down, she began to activate her mana.
After returning from Black Bear Ridge, Yun Qin would activate the evil energy in her body whenever she was free. However, every time she activated a large amount of evil energy, the Soul Bead would tremble.
After a few times, Yun Qin finally understood how the Soul Bead operated. She also gradually got used to the huge eyeball that would manifest from the amount of pressure the Soul Bead released.
Now, whenever the Soul Bead was agitated, Yun Qin could immediately suppress it and extract evil energy from it.
Moreover, because of the Soul Bead, she could control her mana more efficiently.
After drawing out a wisp of mana, Yun Qin slowly pushed it in between Old Master Song’s eyebrows.
The blood-red aura that was hovering between Old Master Song’s eyebrows was already dimmer than before, almost invisible. Yun Qin stimulated it with her mana, and it appeared again as a faint red thread connected to Song Yin.
Realistically, the life-swapping array on them had neither the soul-capturing array from the small courtyard as a power source nor the original instigator, therefore, she could just leave it alone.
However, Yun Qin was still worried. If they encountered any extreme circumstances, such as other evil ghosts activating the array, then the consequences would be dire.
After all, once a life-swapping array was activated, the results were irreversible.
She gently used her mana to slowly erode the array in Old Master Song’s body and spread her mana into Song Yin’s body.
However, because of the purple aura surrounding Song Yin’s body, Yun Qin could not sense what was going on in his body. She could only tell that the power of the array in his body was gradually weakening.
As Yun Qin carefully broke the array, Old Master Song finally felt as if a string in his mind burst. Then, Yun Qin stood up, rubbed her waist, and said, “It’s broken. You will recover after a few days of recuperation.”
Even though he saw Yun Qin’s abilities before, Old Master Song still could not help but ask, “Is it really broken?”
Then, he looked at Song Yin on the bed and smiled. “He’s so lucky.”
Yun Qin was the one who saved Song Yin’s life. If the curse was still in place, Song Yin probably wouldn’t live past 35 years old.
However, it was commendable that Yun Qin didn’t want Song Yin to know about her ability, nor did she want to use the fact that she saved his life as a way to tie him to her.
At the thought of this, Grandpa Song was relieved about his grandson’s marriage. The burden on his shoulders eased a little, and he stroked his beard.
“Grandpa Song, are we going to let him sleep here?”
Seeing that it was getting late, Yun Qin asked. She was still thinking about the evil ghosts that escaped when she broke the soul-capturing array.
If she could catch a ghost today, then that would be a full haul for her.
Old Master Song shook his head and said meaningfully, “He already has a family. Why should we keep him here?”
Hearing him, Yun Qin’s face immediately turned red. “Grandpa Song…”
“Why are you still calling me Grandpa Song?”
“Oh.” Yun Qin paused and tried to change the way she addressed him.”… Grandpa?”
Only then did Old Master Song feel satisfied. He stood up and wanted to leave.
He wanted to give these two more time to be alone together.
Seeing that Grandpa Song was about to run away, Yun Qin quickly stopped him and asked about the man and woman with the black aura.
Yun Qin did not hide anything from Grandpa Song and said that the two of them were most likely haunted by ghosts and needed to be dealt with as soon as possible.
“You’re talking about a thin tall man and a woman wearing khaki-colored clothes?”
Grandpa’s Song tilted his head and thought for a moment. There were a lot of people in the Song family, so he didn’t know who they were at the moment.
“Maybe they’re Song Wu’s [Fifth Master Song] relatives. Alright, I’ll take my leave. I’ll send someone to investigate and let you know what I find.”
After saying that, Grandpa Song left swiftly.
Yun Qin felt much more at ease after entrusting the matter to Grandpa Song. At this moment, she was faced with another problem.
What was she going to do about this drunkard?
It seemed that Grandpa Song left him in her care.
She definitely couldn’t stay in the Song family’s old mansion. She could only take him to her house or Song Yin’s house.
If she brought him back to her house…
Just the thought of her carrying him to her house by herself and how shocked her father and her brother would be when they saw them gave her a headache.
