Zhang Jingxue choked up for a moment, suddenly falling silent. What did it mean to leave a sentence half-finished?
Sang Qingxiao, dissatisfied with the response, asked, "Are they your two sons?"
Zhang Jingxue nodded and then shook her head. "They are just my little soft spot, I suppose." In other words, there were other forms of leverage. "Madam, you once praised my true abilities. Could you be more straightforward? Perhaps I can help you."
Zhang Jingxue lightly bit her lip, finding it truly unfathomable. If she spoke out loud, no one would believe her.
"Madam," Sang Qingxiao said, "I am a Demon Catcher. What kind of unbelievable things have I not seen?"
Zhang Jingxue remained silent, weighing her thoughts internally.
Sang Qingxiao noticed her hesitation and began speaking again. "Qi Hao might be an Evil Spirit!"
Her directness startled Zhang Jingxue, but the shock didn't last long; her expression shifted to one of dawning realization. "You know?"
Zhang Jingxue sighed. "I've been with him for nearly thirty years. No matter how cautious he is, there will be times when he lets his guard down in front of me. I also have leverage in his hands; subconsciously, he feels he can completely control me. Sometimes he slips up in front of me without caring, even laughing as he watches my reaction."
"Qi Xiaomian has also mentioned Qi Hao's abnormalities to me. For instance, being alone at midnight, having an unpredictable temperament, and being overly concerned about his appearance and age." He hadn't spent much time with Qi Hao but had already noticed these things. "Madam, you've known him for nearly thirty years; you must know more than he does."
Zhang Jingxue vaguely replied, "What I've observed is similar to what Qi Xiaomian has noted."
"You are still too concerned," Sang Qingxiao continued to guide her. But as she opened her mouth again, it was another bombshell: "There might be a ghost within Qi Hao, and quite a few of them at that."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jingxue suddenly stood up. "Within him?! It's actually within him!!!"
It took her over ten years to place her own eyes and ears throughout the Qi Family and search every corner through those connections, yet she found nothing! She had even disguised some Exceptional Individuals to infiltrate the estate while Qi Hao was away but discovered nothing.
She never expected that it was hidden inside him all along!!!
Sang Qingxiao was at a loss for how to comfort her. Zhang Jingxue's reaction made it clear to Sang Qingxiao that the leverage she mentioned might very well be the souls of Zhang Jingxue's loved ones.
Zhang Jingxue suddenly grabbed Sang Qingxiao's arm and shook it vigorously. "Are you sure? Are you certain there are many evil spirits inside him?"
"About seventy to eighty percent sure," Sang Qingxiao replied. "I came to you because I wanted your help to confirm."
Without hesitation, Zhang Jingxue asked, "What should we do?"
Sang Qingxiao exerted some strength, prying Zhang Jingxue's fingers apart. Then, he placed his hands on her shoulders and gently pushed her down onto a stone bench. "Madam, we need to think this through carefully."
"But I've waited too long! Finally being able to see the answer, I really can't wait any longer!"
"Madam, you need to calm down first," Sang Qingxiao urged. "Confirming whether he is possessed by evil spirits is not our ultimate goal. Our final objective is to deal with him based on the confirmation results."
