Detective Ghost Empress

Liu Hui Ying was not soft-hearted at all, her reasons were quite simple yet complicated. Forming a contract was not as simple as the ones that were signed by the humans, a spiritual contract was much more binding and dangerous if it was broken, her soul could split into two if one of the souls that she had contracted tried to go against her or did something that went against the laws of heavens.

As the contractor, she was the one who was the guarantee that her ghosts will never harm her or any other human, they will stay loyal and pay attention to the rules set by the heavens and more importantly they will stay where she was —— in short even though it was called a contractor and contracted relationship it was more like a guardian and a child relationship.

Liu Hui Ying had no plans of starting a new life in this world, she wanted to go back to her own world where she belonged instead of staying in this world.

When that time came, the three ghosts who have been following her will definitely agree to follow her without even questioning her but Xiao Lin was different the reason she stayed back was Ji Yu and her obsession which made her stay intact and conscious was also Ji Yu's safety and well being.

If she was to contract Xiao Lin and bring her with her to the modern world, Liu Hui Ying could already imagine just what kind of terror this ghost will incite. Xiao Lin, who looked so innocent and naive was willing to kill a person or even more for the sake of Ji Yu, she did not wish to tame a soul that was so explosive and dangerous.

It would be a horror that Liu Hui Ying did not wish to see.

This was why it was better to nip the bud before it bloomed. And why should she even take this sticky matter in her hand? Ji Yu was the cause of it so she should be the one who should be dealing with this matter.

" Ah, it's so severe?" Xiao Lin did not know about such conditions, she looked at Liu Hui Ying who was looking down at her. She wanted to agree as well but what the queen said made her rethink, can she really let go of her missy just like that? The answer was quite clear to Xiao Lin.

She could not do so, she wanted to stay next to her missy and stop her from moving on the wrong path, if she could not even do that then what was the point of living in the afterlife where she could not even safe her missy?

In her heart Xiao Lin knew that she could not turn completely loyal to Liu Hui Ying which meant that she could not form a contract with Liu Hui Ying, if that was the case then it means that she will——slowly vanish. Xiao Lin stiffened she did not want to be dragged to the eighteenth level of hell!

After thinking about it she was going to agree but then she heard Liu Hui Ying say, " And now that you are dead, I guess there is no point in worrying about this," Liu Hui Ying bowed and then whispered in Xiao Lin's voice, "… I am not from this world and one day I will return to my own world when that happens you will no longer be able to see your precious Miss Ji."

Xiao Lin who was about to agree raised her head and looked at Liu Hui Ying with shok in her eyes but then again she wasn't that surprised when she was talking with the three ghosts they seemed to be talking in a manner that was completely unfamiliar with them and what was more their clothes seemed to be different from what she was wearing.

So of course Xiao Lin had a bit of an idea of what was going on but after hearing it straight from Liu Hui Ying, she was still surprised.

" Does it mean that I have to follow you?" She asked her fingers clenching in her lap.

" Of course," Liu Hui Ying answered without even blinking her eyes as she looked at the young girl who sucked in a breath when she heard her response. " You will be my slave and your afterlife existence will be connected with me indirectly of course you will have to stay next to me, if you leave my side then you will be signing your and my death warrant.

Call me selfish if you want but I would like it if you sign yours alone."

" How can you…."

" How can I be this ruthless?" Liu Hui Ying smiled she was already walking towards her bed where she sat down and glanced at Xiao Lin who was sitting on the floor. " No matter how ruthless I am, I can't be more ruthless than you and your mistress, you two actually came up with the idea of poisoning me, if I was an ordinary woman I would have died by now."

" I was the one——" Xiao Lin wanted to say that she was the one who wanted to poison Liu Hui Ying but the latter glared at her in a manner that made it impossible for her to utter even a single word as she lowered her head and gulped.

" You are directly involved, yes but your missy is indirectly involved as well, do you think that a maid like you can just come up with such poisonous flowers on the spot without even knowing? And you think that if you say that your missy was not involved I will listen to your words?

The fact that you had this stupid idea that your missy's happiness was linked with my death… I am afraid that your missy is quite dissatisfied with me." Liu Hui Ying's words were sharp but true, she calmly explained everything and did not show even an ounce of anger on her face.

With her glittering coldly she further added,  " I do not blame her, everyone here is living for themselves under their kind persona they are all nothing but selfish pricks, I am just more vociferous about my selfishness. Since I am so nice that I cannot hide my real personality like a two face bitch."
