Chapter 88 - In Our Next Lives (2)



Two hours later, Shen Minyao found herself again inside Bai Xinran\'s apartment, waiting for Lu Anqi and Li Fei\'er to finish preparing the set-up for the ritual. With Lu Anqi\'s help, Li Fei\'er drew a ritual circle within Bai Xinran\'s bedroom. Jiang Chen spoke to Miss Xia on the other side of the house about what she should expect that day, leaving Shen Minyao to Xiao Bai\'s company. 

"How come you only come back now?" Shen Minyao asked the white fatty cat who chose to curl up on her lap as she sat on Bai Xinran\'s chair. 

"Milady might be forgetting that you are the one who asked me to check up on Zhao Yichen\'s condition personally," Xiao Bai replied, "Also, Young Master has fed me some good stuff, while you couldn\'t even give me anything to eat." 

"What? Do you think Shen Minyao is as filthy rich as Su Daji who could feed you gold? Even if I have a single gold coin right now, I wouldn\'t give it to you." The fox woman huffed. 

In her past life, she was lucky that Su Daji had a huge collection of jewelry on hand, even though she was a sword practitioner before her untimely death. The gold mine that the Su family had was enough for the fox woman to feed her two mythical guardians. 

"What gold, milady? I already expected that I wouldn\'t be able to taste such delicacies in today\'s world. I could smell a faint scent of it everywhere, but they were too diluted for me to consider eating any of them." The fat cat yawned and stretched his limbs. 

Shen Minyao hummed. She understood what Xiao Bai meant. Even Cheng Lifan owned a few 24-karat gold items, but there was no way she would feed it to her \'cats\'.

"So troublesome. Where will I find gold to feed you and Yu Yan in this age? Might as well rob some jewelry stores to get you some snacks."

"Milady, shouldn\'t do something illegal. It will surely bring shame to the Shen family," Xiao Bai reminded her.

"Then, what do I do then? Hunt greedy humans who own gold bars for you to feast on?"

"Won\'t that make them your enemies, milady? They will surely come after you if you do so." 

The fox woman scoffed and rested her chin on the back of her hands. She had never deemed humans as a threat to her safety, not unless they were those wretched shamans who kept messing with her. 

"I practically have enemies everywhere. Do you think I will be bothered if I add more to the list? If you are worried that they will hunt me down, might as well nip the bud before it blooms." She would rather annihilate those pesky humans to completely get rid of them. 

Xiao Bai eyed his mistress and shut his eyes. As always, his mistress would rather choose to see a bloodbath than deal with the problem peacefully. 

"We are done here!" They heard Li Fei\'er call out from the bedroom. 

All of them moved to where the two young women were and were greeted by the intricate shapes and lines on the floor, which was obviously made with the finest grade of salt. 

"I see. Even the salt suppliers these days are still raking monies just as they were before," Shen Minyao commented when she realized the amount of salt Li Fei\'er used to make this ritual circle. 

In her past life, salt was considered as valuable as gold. Not only was it important to prolong food preservation in the past, but it was a good way to fend off evil spirits from taking refuge or affecting the household of the humans.

"Should we get started then?" Jiang Chen asked, seeing that everything was in place now. 

Shen Minyao stood aside and leaned against the wall. She had nothing to do but to oversee Li Fei\'er\'s safety during the ritual. Also, she needed to be at a safe distance to not get affected by the divination the young shaman had to perform later.

"Miss Xia, could you please stand inside this circle?" Li Fei\'er asked, with a blindfold in one hand. "I need to cover your eyes. Please, whatever you hear, do not step away from the circle for your daughter\'s sake." 

Miss Xia stared at the blindfold Li Fei\'er was holding and nodded. 

"Then, I would be able to talk to Ranran?" She inquired. 

"En, but only for a limited time, Miss Xia. I cannot promise you how long it will be, so please use the time wisely."

"Miss Li, thank you," the older woman said before she allowed Li Fei\'er to cover her eyes with the blindfold.

"Then, I will summon Bai Xinran\'s spirit now," Jiang Chen said before giving Shen Minyao a knowing look. 

The fox woman nodded in return. She then looked at the small vial that Jiang Chen handed her earlier. If things turned for the worse, she would seal Bai Xinran\'s spirit inside the vial temporarily. Bai Xinran might not have turned into a malevolent ghost yet, but that didn\'t mean she wouldn\'t pose a threat towards Li Fei\'er and Lu Anqi. 

Jiang Chen started to do his part and summoned the spirit of the dead Bai Xinran inside the room. The lights started to flicker, and the temperature inside the house dropped into astonishing numbers. 

Miss Xia and Lu Anqi visibly shivered from the sudden change in the atmosphere. Meanwhile, Li Fei\'er stood on the other side of the perimeter and paid attention to her surroundings. As soon as Bai Xinran\'s spirit arrived, she should be able to trap her inside the circle to forbid her from possessing Lu Anqi again. 

Jiang Chen\'s way to summon a spirit made Shen Minyao curious. To think that the humans were able to evolve and change their ways of dealing with malevolent ghosts and demons tremendously was amazing in her opinion. 

"Come forth, Bai Xinran… and heed my words!"
