Chapter 428: Xie Jin’s Pain

Xie Jin sat on the sofa in a daze. He knew that Xie Huan was right.
Since Xiao Ya could leave a seal for Xie Jing back then, she must have known about this. However, she let that ghost absorb her lifespan and did not tell anyone.
“Why? Why didn’t she tell me?” Xie Jin was puzzled.
Xie Huan sighed and said, “Sister-in-law knew that she couldn’t live anymore, so she left the hope of survival to Xie Jing.”
Xie Jin still could not understand. “But she could have told me that I could have gone to the sorcerer to save her.”
“At that time, Auntie could no longer be saved,” Yunbao said. “Auntie was not a sorcerer, so she could not sense that something was wrong with her body immediately. By the time she sensed the existence of the little ghost, it was already too late. At that time, her life was about to end, so she could see the ghost. She realized that Brother Xie Jing would also encounter such a thing and used all her strength to seal his spirit body.”
Xie Huan’s face was filled with grief. “So Sister-in-law died consciously?” “Yes.” Yunbao nodded with difficulty.
Perhaps Xiao Ya committed suicide to preserve her last bit of dignity. She hoped that she could choose the method of death and not die in pain when her lifespan was exhausted.
It took Xie Jin a long time to accept his wife’s death back then. He comforted himself that she had chosen to leave because of the torture of her illness, but now he heard another possibility.
His Xiao Ya had walked to death alone. It was her who had chosen death, not death who had chosen her.
Tears fell from Xie Jin’s eyes. “What about me? Didn’t she think about what I should do? How am I going to survive if she leaves?”
Looking at her brother who was in pain, Xie Huan rushed over to hug him. In her opinion, her brother was omnipotent. He was as firm and calm as the moon in the night sky, but he was a little too cold.
Sister-in-law was like the sun that lit up her brother. With Sister-in-law, Xie Huan felt that Big Brother was alive. The day before Big Brother’s wedding, he couldn’t even sleep and chatted with her for the entire night. He kept talkinging about how he and Sister-in-law met each other. She was so sleepy that she couldn’t sit still, but he still talked.
At that time, her brother was really happy. That was why she dared to travel overseas and not go home. She knew that her sister-in-law would take good care of her brother.
Later on, when Xie Jing was born, Big Brother cried his eyes out. His heart ached for Sister-in-law’s hard work in giving birth and he swore never to make her give birth again. He was even laughed at by Sister-in-law for a long time. She said that as the head of the family, he was not afraid of embarrassing himself by crying in the hospital.
She thought that the Xie family would continue to be happy like this, but her sister-in-law had suddenly passed away. Without the sun, the Xie family was so cold that it could freeze people to death.
From then on, Eldest Brother became dispirited. It was not until half a month later that he finally pulled himself together and went to work as usual to deal with things. However, Xie Huan knew that Eldest Brother had become a walking corpse. It was just that the responsibility on him was holding him back.
Now that they told him that Sister-in-law’s death was caused by a ghost, it was like adding salt to his wound.
Xie Jin stood up from the ground, his eyes filled with hatred. “Is that ghost still in my house?”
“Yes.” Yunbao nodded and said, “He hasn’t left. He should still be looking for energy to absorb. The seal on Brother Xie Jing’s body has already begun to loosen. If it continues for a while, he will definitely be discovered by that ghost.”
“Then how can I turn him into ashes?” Xie Jin asked.
Of course, there were many ways to destroy a ghost, but Yunbao said hesitantly, “That ghost has never left. He must have kept Auntie Xiao Ya’s energy. I’ve never come into contact with the energy of a natural spirit body, so I have to fight him to know what to use.”
Hearing this, Xiao Jing became nervous. He pulled Yunbao and said, “If you want to fight, you don’t have to come. Your fourth uncle and I can help.”
Yunbao smiled and said, “Daddy, I’m very strong now and can deal with these things myself. You have to believe me.”
Looking at Yunbao’s confident smile, Xiao Jing could only nod and say, “Alright, our Yunbao is the strongest witch. Daddy will be in charge of standing at the back and cheering for you.”
Xie Jin’s heart was filled with thoughts of killing that ghost to avenge his wife. He couldn’t wait a moment longer. He threw all his work to his deputy and went home.
This was Yunbao’s first time coming to the Xie family’s mansion. From the outside, it looked about the same size as the Gu family’s house. However, it was even quieter and did not even have a garden. It did not look like a house where someone lived..
