Chapter 1345 - Completely Dumbfounded (1/2)

“Your body has a strong spiritual aura.” The old woman looked at Feng Jiu: “You aren’t a beggar are you?” A beggar would not possess such a pure spiritual power.

Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu’s expression wavered slightly, she glanced at the old woman and nodded: “Well, it is safer for me to be disguised as a beggar as I am travelling alone.”

“Elder sister, elder sister, play with me, elder sister, play with me….”

The childlike voice drifted in from outside again, the voice carried a hint of crying. But compared to the pitch blackness outside, the horror of the voice was lessened in the ancestral hall lit up with lanterns.

She glanced outside and asked: “How come they can’t come inside?” This place didn’t seem like there was anything special about it, so why couldn’t the vengeful spirits enter.

“Because they are afraid I will refine them, that’s why they don’t dare to enter.” The hunchbacked old woman replied, and took a bite of her cake as she continued to eat.

When she heard this, Feng Jiu was startled: “Refine them? How do you refine them?”

The old woman raised her dull eyes and looked at her, instead of replying, she asked; “Do you know where vengeful spirits come from?”

“No.”

She shook her head truthfully, she honestly didn’t know. She only knew that there were ghosts, she didn’t even know there was such a thing as vengeful spirits who didn’t have any ghostly aura, who knew where they came from.

“Ghosts are the souls of people after they die, vengeful spirits are born out of resentment. To put it bluntly, swords have sword spirits, born from the illusion of the sword to become the guardian spirit of the sword. However, vengeful spirits are far inferior to such things as sword spirits because they have resentment.”
