"How are you going to exorcise me?" The lady in white didn't turn around but asked directly. This ghostly apparition seemed different from the ones I had encountered before. Her voice wasn't as gloomy as the other spirits, but unusually crisp, reminding me of the way my Home Guardian spoke to me.
However, there were differences; my Home Guardian didn't harbor any resentment or chill like her. The vengeful spirit before me emitted an extraordinarily strong feeling of grudge.
I even had an illusion that she might be using my intention to exorcise her as a trap to get me to jump in.
But that was just a feeling after all. As for what the lady in white really thought, I would definitely find out later. Even if it was indeed a trap for me to fall into, I was willing to jump in anyway. Although it's often said that most disciples of Maoshan are selflessly devoted, I couldn't say the same for myself.
