C49 (1/2)

I, I didn't kill anyone! It had nothing to do with me! I've done it, the reason the river dried up is to save their lives. If you say I'm the one in trouble, then who's the one who harmed me! I just want to stay here and guard my husband!

The woman in red cried mournfully. Standing below, Chang Ge couldn't help but feel some sympathy for her: ”His husband is here?”

Wu Tong replied: I heard that a few years ago, that Hanba's husband was someone from the city. He first married the mayor's daughter and then engaged Hanba to someone else. As for the Hanba, it was also hastily thrown to the unmarked cemetery by the citizens of the city. Due to the heavy yin energy from the unordered burial site, a thousand years of corpse aura gathered and she became an ancient fiendish demon — Hanba … After so many years of cultivation, they had finally returned to the Liushui District, where they had experienced two years of drought.

From the looks of it, he was also someone who had suffered a lot.

Xiao Ziyang didn't think so. In his eyes, good was good, and evil was evil, and doing good with virtue might alleviate sin, but it would never change what had happened before.

If you do something bad, then you have to repay it. This is retribution.

He formed a seal with his hand, and the void door opened. The eye-piercing white light caused Zhang Ge to shut his eyes tightly, while Wu Tong had already hid behind an old tree, afraid that the void would suck him into the Great Desolation as well.

After the white light dissipated, Changge looked over once more and Xiao Ziyang was still standing right in front of her. The woman who was crying miserably had already disappeared, so it was likely Xiao Ziyang who had said that she had returned to the Great Desolation.

She stared at him in a daze before confirming once again the position of the woman in red's body. It was truly gone, just like that …

Besides, can it rain here?

Yes.

Xiao Ziyang looked towards the brat called Wu Tong, who shrank his neck and dodged far away while holding the lantern.

It was as if she was afraid that he would be exterminated after he killed the demons as well. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ziyang only sighed lightly before bringing Zhang Ge back to the city.

Chang Ge didn't sleep well that night. When he opened the window, he saw an ancient, withered tree. The tree trunk was very thick, and the branches were intertwined.

Seeing Wu Tong carrying a red lantern beneath a tree, Chang Ge smiled slightly, then waved: ”Come up, Wu Tong.”

Wu Tong looked at her with half admiration and half fear: The yin energy in this place is extremely dense, Wu Tong will guard below, Upper Immortal can rest easy here.

So it was to protect her, but a warm feeling welled in Chang Ge's heart. A soul that he had met by chance was guarding outside the inn for her because they mistook her for Upper Immortal. This warmth was enough to be engraved in the heart of a young girl like her.

Standing outside the tavern, she could see the dim candlelight in Xiao Ziyang's room. She smiled at Wu Tong and found a rock to sit on: I used to like to sleep when I was in the residence, but for some reason, ever since I went to Qinghua, I haven't slept at all. Tonight was even weirder, so I couldn't sleep at all.

Wu Tong seemed to still be slightly fearful of her as he moved closer to his with the lantern in his hand. Wu Tong did not understand, because Wu Tong was a ghost and had not slept for a very, very long time.

You seem to be afraid of me.

Wu Tong nodded, then shook his head: ”I, I have wandered around the human world for too long, I hope to be able to reincarnate. Both the Upper Immortal and that Immortal Lord Ziyang have very strong powers, I don't know if I can help, I will definitely be extremely grateful.

From her point of view, she was very willing to help others. To be honest, she now believed that being able to see ghosts was a type of fate, even the Buddhist Taoists talked about fate. Since fate allowed it, why couldn't she help him?

It's just that she was not a person who liked to cause trouble for others. She would not overstep her limits and would definitely have to trouble Xiao Ziyang with this matter.
