Mo Xiaoyan looked very angry, but she didn't seem afraid or have any other emotions. By logic, a girl seeing a "ghost" should scream and be at a loss, yet Mo Xiaoyan's behavior seemed like she felt seeing a ghost was a matter of course.

Lu Xiaoman nervously leaned into Ye Fan's arms and said, "Ye Fan, where's the... ghost?"

"Right next to you, sister... haha, now she's behind brother-in-law. This female ghost really likes brother-in-law and even calls him master." Mo Xiaoyan said with a giggle.

Ye Fan comforted, "Xiaoman, I'll explain it to you later, don't worry, I'm here, even if there are ghosts, they can't harm you."

Being with Ye Fan made Lu Xiaoman feel very safe; she nodded but still dared not peek out of Ye Fan's embrace to look.

Ye Fan looked at Mo Xiaoyan and asked, "Xiaoyan, aren't you afraid of seeing ghosts?"

"I... of course, I'm afraid. Isn't that why I called you out to catch the ghost? Who knew you were in cahoots with the ghost." Mo Xiaoyan said innocently.

Ye Fan said, "I don't think you called me out because you're scared, but rather to interrupt me and your sister's good time, right?"

This sentence hit Mo Xiaoyan's real intention. Her little scheming couldn't escape Ye Fan's grasp. She stammered, "I... I've seen many ghosts before, so... I'm not that afraid..."

"Xiaoyan, you said you've seen many ghosts before?" Lu Xiaoman exclaimed in amazement.

"I didn't want to tell you. I saw ghosts when I was very young. Back then, no one believed me when I spoke about them, but most ghosts don't even have consciousness; they wander around like fools, and I felt they couldn't harm me, so naturally, I didn't bother. I didn't expect to encounter one that can speak today. Before, ghosts only screamed miserably; I really haven't encountered one that can talk." Mo Xiaoyan glared angrily at the little purple crystal hiding behind Ye Fan.

Lu Xiaoman was surprised and asked, "Can speak? Why... can't I hear it?"

Ye Fan said, "I'll explain later. Actually, she's not a ghost, she's a Soul Body with her own substance. Purple Crystal, come out and meet your two sisters."

"Oh." The little Purple Crystal obediently revealed her purple form from behind Ye Fan, her body glowing as she appeared in the room, and after a while, the glow gradually faded.

"Ah!" Seeing there really was a "ghost," Lu Xiaoman was frightened and hurriedly hid in Ye Fan's arms, her brows furrowed as she didn't dare open her eyes.

Ye Fan said, "Don't worry, Purple Crystal is an energy body, not a ghost; she gained human consciousness after millions of years of cultivation in a crystal, and I helped her find a medium to become a human girl. She means no harm; she even helped you cultivate before."

Ye Fan lied about this; Purple Crystal didn't actually help when Ye Fan was assisting Lu Xiaoman's cultivation. She couldn't lend a hand, but she contributed greatly during Ye Fan's cultivation, indirectly helping Lu Xiaoman too.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaoman felt more at ease and said to Purple Crystal, "Then... thank you."

"No need to thank me. Mistress doesn't need to thank me; I haven't been much help," Purple Crystal said shyly. "I was sleeping inside Master's body all along and just woke up. Mistress, you're so beautiful."

Lu Xiaoman felt awkward hearing the term "Mistress," she nodded slightly but looked at Ye Fan.

Mo Xiaoyan angrily said, "Stinky brother-in-law, look at this ghost named Purple Crystal admitting it herself, calling you master. Seems like you two have been conspiring together before."

Purple Crystal curiously looked at Mo Xiaoyan, still not quite understanding what "conspire" meant.

Ye Fan coldly said, "Purple Crystal just became a human girl and doesn't understand human emotions. Would I be so tasteless as to possess her?"

"Yes, yes," Purple Crystal nodded, "Master is very upright; Master helped me get a human body, and I'm Master's servant. I really hoped Master would possess me, but Master doesn't want me..."

Purple Crystal felt somewhat aggrieved; in her heart, she only acknowledged Ye Fan as Master. To go from a human girl to a woman, she could only entrust herself to Ye Fan, but Ye Fan didn't fulfill her wish.

"Humph." This time, Lu Xiaoman was a bit angry and punched Ye Fan, clearly indicating a mutual affection, only lacking the right opportunity.

"Hehe, sister, go ahead and hit brother-in-law hard. I think she's heartless, coming over to be with you while bringing a maid along, thinking maybe you're just not enough for him and then... uh, brother-in-law and sister, don't look at me like that." Mo Xiaoyan felt awkward too.

Lu Xiaoman angrily came out of Ye Fan's arms and went to the next room. Ye Fan hurriedly chased after her trying to explain, "Xiaoman, listen to me, there's really nothing between Purple Crystal and me..."

In Mo Xiaoyan's view, anyone who could disrupt Ye Fan and Lu Xiaoman's relationship was a good person, someone worth befriending. She went over, extended her hand, and said, "You're called Purple Crystal, right? My name is Mo Xiaoyan; how about being my little sister from now on?"

"Huh?" Purple Crystal was a bit confused, not fully understanding human complex ethical relationships.

"What I mean is, I'll be the big sister, you'll be the little sister. Come to me if anything happens, help me keep an eye on brother-in-law, okay?" Mo Xiaoyan said with a stern face.

"I don't want a sister." Purple Crystal candidly said, "I only recognize Master and Mistress; you haven't been involved with Master, so you're not my Mistress."

"You're quite snobby, aren't you? What do you mean I haven't been involved with your Master..." Mo Xiaoyan was a bit annoyed, "Well, indeed we haven't been involved. So I can't be your sister?"

"Yes." Purple Crystal affirmed.

"Fine, then I'll target you. Just you wait, brother-in-law will want me eventually, and by then I'll be your Mistress, bossing you around every day until you're exhausted!" Mo Xiaoyan was one to hold grudges; her friendliness towards Purple Crystal earlier was rejected, so she bore a grudge against her.

Purple Crystal, baffled by this, wondered what relevance Mistress had. Even Master didn't boss her around, so did Mo Xiaoyan think she was qualified to do so?

Meanwhile, Lu Xiaoman, having vented her anger, was soon softened by Ye Fan's advances, and some not-so-harmonious sounds emanated from the next room. Mo Xiaoyan was about to listen closely when Ye Fan used a spiritual energy net to isolate the room.

Mo Xiaoyan was very angry, sitting on the carpet, wanting to cultivate a bit more, but recalling Ye Fan's words, "Xiaoyan, I love you too," made her feel troubled.

"Stinky brother-in-law, stole my heart but won't come comfort me. Wicked sister, hogging brother-in-law all for herself, not realizing her little sister is sad?" Mo Xiaoyan said, on the verge of tears.

Purple Crystal sat down in front of her, curiously looking at her, and said, "Are you very sad? When humans are sad, isn't crying out the proper reaction?"

"You're just another little rascal, in league with my sister and brother-in-law!" Mo Xiaoyan was now in a bite-everything state.
