Su Mu moved like a wraith, dodging left and right, narrowly avoiding the relentless attacks from Su Mingyuan that came with fierce winds.
At the same time, he focused intently on trying to establish a connection and communicate with Su Wan's spirit.
In that moment, Su Wan's soul appeared extremely weak, flickering like a candle in the wind, as if it could extinguish at any moment.
Her voice was intermittent, like torn silk, struggling to convey her tragic experiences to Su Mu.
It turned out that Su Wan was actually the biological sister of Su Mingyuan!
Moreover, Su Wan was also skilled in medicine and possessed an extraordinary understanding of the mysterious Heavenly Secrets Medical Manual.
However, this talented and kind-hearted woman had suffered brutal persecution at the hands of her own brother, Su Mingyuan, many years ago.
Driven by greed, Su Mingyuan had meticulously plotted a scheme to eliminate his sister in order to possess the legendary Heavenly Secrets Medical Manual all for himself.
Not only that, but to cover up his crime, he cleverly disguised Su Wan's death as a seemingly ordinary accident.
Since then, Su Wan's spirit, wronged and unable to find peace due to the heavy resentment in her heart, had transformed into a Yuan Hun, wandering endlessly near the Su Family.
Upon hearing this heart-wrenching tale, a blaze of fury ignited within Su Mu.
He could hardly believe that the seemingly righteous Su Mingyuan could be so ruthless as to harm his own sister for the sake of a mere book like the Heavenly Secrets Medical Manual; it was utterly inhumane!
At that moment, Su Mu silently vowed to ensure that this wicked man received the punishment he deserved, as a way to comfort Su Wan's spirit in the afterlife.
"Su Mingyuan, how can you still dare to argue at this point? Do you really intend to wait until the truth is revealed for all to see before admitting your sins?"
Su Mu's eyes blazed with fury as he fixed his gaze on Su Mingyuan, his angry stare seemingly capable of piercing through the very soul of the man before him.
Biting his lip, Su Mu's hands trembled slightly from the strain of holding back his grief and rage. He recounted Su Wan's tragic fate to Su Mingyuan in vivid detail.
Each word struck Su Mingyuan's heart like a hammer, forcing him to take a few steps back involuntarily.
Though his face had turned as pale as paper, Su Mingyuan's eyes continued to flicker, clearly engaged in a fierce internal struggle.
Yet, despite this, the despicable man refused to relent. Instead, he brazenly scoffed, "Hmph! Do not speak such nonsense here! This female ghost merely seeks to sow discord between us; you will not deceive me!"
At that moment, the ghost of Su Wan, who had remained silent until now, suddenly let out a heart-wrenching wail.
The cry echoed like the mournful hoot of an owl at night, reminiscent of the lamentations rising from the depths of the underworld, sending chills down spines and instilling fear in all present.
Her wail seemed to carry endless resentment and pain, as if it were a testament to the atrocities Su Mingyuan had inflicted upon her.
As Su Wan's ghostly cries filled the room, the oppressive atmosphere thickened with malevolence.
The already dim light was completely engulfed by darkness, leaving only a few faint beams of moonlight filtering through the window, barely illuminating the terrified faces of those inside.
Simultaneously, the temperature in the room plummeted sharply; an icy draft gripped everyone like invisible hands around their throats, making it nearly impossible to breathe.
Su Mu knew all too well that if this situation dragged on any longer, things would only worsen.
Not only was there a risk that the Heavenly Secrets Medical Manual could fall into the hands of villains, but even Su Wan's soul might never find peace. With this thought weighing heavily on him, he dared not hesitate any longer. Taking a deep breath, he began to channel the mysterious techniques from the Heavenly Secrets Medical Manual with all his might.
He swiftly formed a series of intricate and obscure hand seals, murmuring incantations under his breath. At the same time, an incredibly pure wave of Spiritual Energy surged forth from his body, flowing steadily through his fingertips and into Su Wan's soul.
Nurtured by this powerful Spiritual Energy, Su Wan's once ethereal and elusive spirit began to solidify gradually.
Her previously indistinct features became clearer, even the traces of tears on her face were faintly discernible. As her spirit stabilized, the piercing cries finally began to subside.
Watching Su Wan's spirit regain its calm, Su Mu stepped forward gently, reaching out to tenderly stroke her cheek, his eyes filled with compassion.
He whispered softly, "Su Wan, don’t worry. I will seek justice for you and ensure that scoundrel receives the punishment he deserves. No matter the cost, I will not hesitate..."
Su Wan’s ghost cast a grateful glance at Su Mu before slowly fading away into the air.
Seeing this, Su Mingyuan felt a chilling wave wash over him. He realized that the situation was beyond redemption; the mistakes he had made were finally being exposed.
It was as if he had lost all strength, and he gradually collapsed to the ground. When his body met the cold earth, it produced a faint sound, but at that moment, it felt utterly insignificant.
His once sharp eyes were now filled with endless fear and profound despair.
The fear seemed to stem from the Evil Spirits of Nine Nether Hell, slowly devouring his last remnants of reason; while despair weighed heavily upon him like a shackle, binding his soul and rendering him unable to break free.
At that moment, Su Mu stepped steadily in front of Su Mingyuan.
Looking down at this once-mighty man from above, a cold smile appeared on his face.
Yet that smile did not reach his eyes; instead, they bore a chilling gaze as frigid as frost.
"Su Mingyuan, do you know your crimes? The sins you have committed are beyond measure! Today, I will expose your misdeeds to the world, so that the entire Su Family can see your true nature!"
Su Mu's voice was as cold as the winter wind, each word striking like a sharp blade aimed directly at Su Mingyuan's heart.
Hearing these words, Su Mingyuan's body trembled involuntarily.
He raised his head, looking at Su Mu with a pleading gaze, murmuring, "No... please... don't treat me this way..." But to Su Mu, his pleas sounded like the powerless struggles of a defeated man.
Su Mu paid no attention to Su Mingyuan's desperate cries. Resolutely, he turned and stepped out of the room without hesitation.
He understood all too well that this person before him was no longer worth wasting any time or energy on.
Moreover, there were more important and urgent tasks awaiting him.
He knew that in order to completely expose Su Mingyuan's crimes, he needed to quickly find other members of the Su Family and make them aware of the truth.
At the same time, he had to ensure that the invaluable Heavenly Secrets Medical Manual remained safe and could not fall into the hands of those with ulterior motives.
Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
With this thought in mind, Su Mu quickened his pace.
The thrilling family conflict had just begun…
