Chapter 286: Chapter 286: I Have a Special Method for Dispel Hatred

Scarlett Jennings ultimately did not fight with the Big Ghost in front of the live broadcast.

Firstly, there was indeed no murderous intent on the other party.

Secondly, if they really started fighting, it would be quite a commotion.

Moreover, while the Big Ghost before her was full of resentment upon death, much of it had been worn away by her mother’s final words and the passage of a hundred years.

As for why she still had so much uncontrolled Ghost Energy...

"You have absorbed the Resentful Energy of the eight previous generations of drowned baby girls. Though this Resentful Energy has greatly increased your strength, it has also affected your own Ghost Energy."

Her Thunder Talisman had only dispersed the portion of Ghost Energy formed by resentment, but as long as similar situations occurred, that resentment would continue to grow and influence the female ghost’s actions.

Just like the commotion when the roof collapsed.

Scarlett was unsure whether she should let the people from the Security Bureau handle it.

While she hadn’t made up her mind, the audience in the live broadcast room began to discuss the matter again.

[Damn feudal remnants! There were truly too many baby girls drowned in ancient times.]

[The preference for sons over daughters is still common even today, so one can imagine how severe the oppression of women was in ancient times.]

[I can somewhat understand why she can’t stand women being oppressed.]

[Those clansfolk deserved their fate. You reap what you sow. I’m with Big Ghost Sister on this one.]

[No, no, no, those clansfolk would die believing that failing to drown the eldest daughter of the ninth generation was what led to the century-long failure of their great plan, leading their family to decline.]

[I don’t agree with such a cruel act like washing a daughter, but wiping out an entire clan is a bit extreme. Not everyone in the clan was bad.]

[Agreed. Making all clan members bear the brunt of some members’ faults is somewhat misplaced anger.]

[How about you make the host read this out loud, then Big Ghost Sister will have a heart-to-heart with you tonight!]

[If you haven’t suffered, don’t advise others to be kind. It’s easy to criticize without experiencing it firsthand!]

[Big Ghost Sister’s mother really did her utmost to love her.]

As the comments scrolled by, Evander Simpson sidestepped the fallen debris and walked toward Scarlett Jennings.

He also wanted to know how Scarlett planned to handle this Big Ghost.

Although Scarlett had the Thunder Talisman, dispersing a Big Ghost with a hundred years of cultivation using an ordinary Thunder Talisman was still somewhat challenging.

One mistake and the crew and staff of the show might be affected.

However, before Evander could inquire, Scarlett had already spoken,

"I’m giving you two choices: First, I could get the relevant authorities to deal with you."

She continued, "You may not carry murderous intent, but you have karmic debt. Cleansing this karmic debt to enter reincarnation is a rather long and arduous process, but at least there’s a chance for reincarnation."

"Second, I could find a way to eliminate the resentment of the eight generations from you. Without the influence of that resentment, you won’t be overwhelmed by your Ghost Energy and might even properly step on the path of a Ghost Cultivator."

And becoming an official Ghost Cultivator would allow one to be directly restrained by Spiritual Affairs.

Just like what happened with Guo Qingqing.

After Scarlett finished speaking, before the Big Ghost Sister could respond, Evander was the first to express his surprise.

"Do you... have confidence?"

Though his ability wasn’t as strong as Scarlett’s, he could still see that the Resentful Energy on the Big Ghost before him was different from the ordinary. Having absorbed that resentment for a hundred years, it could be said that it was almost fused with the Big Ghost. Trying to separate and eliminate it was no easy task.

Hearing Evander’s inquiry, Scarlett recalled a certain person of the Golden Light.

Remembering the scene where he easily dissipated the Resentful Energy from a baby spirit with a snap, she pursed her lips and simply said,

"I have a special method to eliminate Resentful Energy."

Without needing the expert’s help, she planned to use the Golden Light she had obtained from him, but it might need some testing.

As they talked, the Big Ghost was still trying to process everything.

"You’re not going to strike me with lightning?"

Scarlett glanced at her, "Do you really want to be struck?"

The Big Ghost shook her head sharply.

No, she didn’t want to.

No ghost would like the power of lightning.

Even the mere touch from earlier felt like it split her soul.

Though it hadn’t truly split her, the sensation was unpleasant.

As for what Scarlett had said,

"I’d like to choose the second option."

She didn’t know what benefits becoming a Ghost Cultivator would bring.

But she didn’t want to reincarnate.

For a century, she watched over those clansfolk.

Observing them die without ever overcoming their ingrained preference for males over females.

And she knew that even in the current era, many people still preferred boys.

Girls were still treated differently, and many couldn’t resist.

She didn’t like that feeling.

Although her mother hoped she would reincarnate, she didn’t want to be born again.

Regardless of being born male or female.

"I choose the second option."

The Big Ghost confidently repeated it once more.

Scarlett then directly pulled out a blank Yellow Talisman.

Everyone brightened up at the sight of her taking out a Talisman.

Only the Big Ghost looked wary.

However, Scarlett, facing the camera, swiftly folded the Yellow Talisman into a thumb-sized little lantern.

Then, she leisurely used a small Vermillion pen to draw a tiny Talisman on the lantern’s exterior.

"Is that a Soul-Collecting Talisman?"

Her drawing was so minuscule that Evander was momentarily uncertain.

Scarlett merely nodded casually, then held the little lantern. With one hand, she made a sealing sign as a red thread, visible only to Scarlett, extended from the lantern. The red string quickly wrapped around the Big Ghost’s wrist, and in the next second, dragged her neatly into the lantern.

Everyone felt a blur as the previously vague black shadow vanished.

Scarlett, holding the little lantern, quickly wrapped several layers around it.

"Does this mean... it’s been captured?"

Ianthe Lawson hadn’t yet processed the shock of what she just witnessed.

Despite knowing about ghosts, it was her first time seeing someone capture one firsthand.

It felt impressive.

Scarlett nodded and, without further explanation, carefully stowed the straw-tied little lantern into her portable bag.

The live broadcast audience couldn’t understand, but that didn’t prevent them from being impressed.

The live comment section transformed into a series of praises once more.

It wasn’t until then that the staff of the production team finally realized that the long-lasting haunting seemed to have been resolved.

Director Xu couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement, just about to express his gratitude, when he saw the collapsed house in front of him, sending him into yet another wave of heartache.

The rental house was demolished... requiring compensation!

Not to mention the delays over these days.

Money, it’s all about the money!

The compensation wasn’t something the program team and guests needed to worry about. Ianthe and her group finally made their way out of the house, which looked like a ruin, and were directly sent back to the rest area to recover.

Ianthe, returning to her private rest area, thought about Scarlett Jennings’ earlier acts of sorcery and felt a quiet admiration in her heart.

As she glanced at herself in the mirror, suddenly, her vision blurred.

Upon regaining clarity, her pupils contracted sharply.

Her perspective had suddenly lowered, and before her eyes, she saw herself sitting at the dressing table, looking into the mirror!

What was happening?

She had left her body?!
