Quick Transmigration: The Female Supporting Role Live for Themselves

Chapter 210: Ghost in the Magic World - Shang Family Fate (3)

And what was kept secret from Bing Hong Xiang and Shang Xiyue was the fact that they had found similarities from the people who were targeted by the black shadow.

"Their trigger is high mental strength?" The Shang Family Head asked during one of the secret meeting of the higher ups in the city.

Ever since the ghost appeared, the higher ups secretly convened a meeting to discuss how to best deal with these ghosts. Among the people who attended were the Shang Family Head and the Bing Family Head. Jun Family Head and Duan Family Head were also here, but they were not that active.

Because so far, the main target of those ghosts is Shang Xiyue.

Oh right, they also started to call the black shadow as ghosts because this was the official name that the more authoritative people said. They have more knowledge about the ghosts, but they still couldn’t figure out how to deal with the ghosts aside from sealing them away.

The problem is, as the number of ghosts increased, it would be getting harder and harder to seal and control all of the existing ghosts.

This was the problem that they had to face.

"Yes. Everyone who are being targeted are children who have high mental strength, but not the strongest," the Governor said.

Shang Xiyue has high mental strength and this was a fact that has been made known to everyone in the city.

After all, the Shang Family’s specialties were extremely prominent.

It would be impossible for them not to know about it.

"It’s better to be Shang Xiyue." Duan Family Head snorted. He didn’t like Shang Xiyue that much because of the influence of the Bing Family over Shang Xiyue.

As for Shang Kui...

He had no opinion.

That girl might not be very strong, but she was cooperating well with his son and the two of them seemed to be friends.

For the Duan Family Head, it was good enough.

The Shang Family Head sighed when he heard this and felt that Shang Xiyue was truly complicated. He asked, "Is it the person with the highest mental strength but weak defense?"

After all, the Shang Family Head was absolutely sure that he had more mental strength than Shang Xiyue.

As for how he knew this...

The Shang Family has secret technique that would allow them to gauge other people’s mental strength. But this secret technique was only passed down to the family heads and not many people knew about it.

From this technique alone, the Shang Family Head knew that Shang Xiyue’s mental strength was definitely not comparable to many adults in the Shang Family.

"Yes." The Governor nodded. "Only children with high mental strength but weaker defense are the target of these ghosts. They don’t usually target adults unless they didn’t have any other choice."

Because adults were much more difficult to attack.

Children’s mental strength was more fragile and easier to break through by these ghosts.

As for how much they had attacked Shang Xiyue, no one knew because they were not entirely sure how to check it either.

But what they knew was the fact that Shang Xiyue’s mental state was already on the verge of breaking down. It was not only from the attack of the ghosts but also the result of other people’s reaction towards her.

Because they all didn’t want to be involved in the ghost’s matters.

"I see," Shang Family Head said slowly.

"In this regards, we plan to keep on using Shang Xiyue’s current status...."

What followed was the real plan for them to continue using Shang Xiyue being the favorite of the ghosts to catch the ghosts. At the same time, they would also send more people to deal with the ghosts directly.

The one thing that they had to worry about was the so called ghost realm.

This was the realm that appeared due to the large number of ghosts appearing at the same time and can even pull people into that world.

So far, every location that has formed the ghost realm has become a forbidden zone that no one dared to trespass.

It was terrifying.

There would be a joint cooperation with other cities to try eliminating one of them in the near future...

The contents of the meetings were a lot.

But Xiang Kui didn’t care too much and once she found out about their plan for Shang Xiyue, she stopped paying attention.

These were a few things that Shang Kui had never known in her previous life.

But Xiang Kui tried to inquire on her own.

Because she had changed many things regarding Shang Xiyue that she wanted to find out more about these. Now, she completely understood that Shang Kui’s fate in her previous life was also the result of these people pushing behind the scene.

’What a fate.’

Xiang Kui sighed to herself.

From Shang Xiyue’s small scheme to the entire city’s scheming against her, yet Shang Kui never thought of destroying the world along with the ghosts.

Should she say that Shang Kui is too kind or she’s too stupid?

Either way, Xiang Kui was glad that she didn’t have to stay in this world for the rest of her life as Shang Kui.

But her mission was not over yet.

It was troubling.

’Do I have to destroy Shang Xiyue thoroughly for my mission to be completed or I have to advance Shang Kui’s love life?’

For the first one, Xiang Kui only needed a while longer and for the second one... she really hoped that it was not that one.

Because she would feel rather uncomfortable to make the decision in terms of emotional matters for other people.

Though, Shang Kui does like Jun Lin...

*cough*

"Shang Kui! Are you there?" Duan Rong Yu shouted in front of the Shang Family Residence.

Xiang Kui’s face darkened slightly when she heard Duan Rong Yu’s voice.

This man was getting more and more brazen in the past few months.
