After the old lady finished speaking, she leisurely walked towards me. She pointed at my chest with her hawk-like fingers and said, ”Jiu Er, how about I leave the first mouthful of my heart's blood to you?”

”Okay, thank you grandma.” The little boy's triangular eyes narrowed as he listened to what she said, and he smacked his lips, appearing very happy.

Nodding her head, the old lady slowly brought her finger to my chest. With a cold and fierce gaze, she said, ”Kid, you destroyed my Huang family's spirit body. This old man will be using your flesh as an offering, this is fair.”

I glared at him, wondering where he had gotten that spiritual body, but it had nothing to do with me.

However, at this moment, I couldn't say a single word. Other than glaring at her, there was nothing else I could do. The old lady's finger had already reached my chest. An inch long fingernail quickly cut open the skin on my chest.

At the same time, I felt a pain in my chest. I wanted to move, but was unable to do so. I watched as fresh blood dripped from my wound, before being lapped by the little boy who had been waiting at the side.

It was at this moment that I felt a tingling sensation all over my body, like a myriad of rat ants crawling all over my body. I felt a little strength in my heart and asked the old lady, ”Who are you, and why are you trying to harm me?”

”Causing you to harm? It is already benevolence for you to destroy my ancestor's spirit body but I did not cause your soul to scatter. You still dare to say that I harmed you? ” After the old lady heard what I said, she suddenly became furious and replied coldly while looking at me with sharp eyes filled with resentment.

”That spiritual urn?” Only now did I realize that the spiritual body he was talking about must be the spiritual urn from before.

”That's right!” The old lady coldly snorted before continuing, ”Those little girls did not know how high the heavens were and how deep the earth was. That's why my Huang family punished you. I didn't think that you would be so much worse and actually be destroyed.”

Although I was already slightly prepared in my heart, I still couldn't help but to be greatly surprised when I heard it with my own ears.

However, from the looks of it, what shouldn't have been destroyed has already been destroyed. The wood has already turned into a boat and the rice has already turned into rice. Even if I were to be cut into pieces, I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

For a moment, I felt like crying, but there were no tears. I really started to regret it.

”Brat, there's nothing left to say. Then you can die in peace.” The old lady saw that I didn't say anything for a long time, and coldly laughed before straightening her waist again, once again extending her finger.

”Wait.” Seeing this, my heart skipped a beat. The pain I felt just now wasn't so much because of it, but because of my fear.

”Any last words?” The old lady gave me a cold look. She only paused for a moment, but didn't let go.

”How about I make you guys a new spirit body?” I said without thinking.

Actually, this is just a plan of mine to delay the war. I don't know what to do with this spirit body, nor do I know where to start.

”Do it again? Is the ancestor's spirit body something that you can do as you please? ” The old lady was stunned, but her heart was slightly moved as she spoke coldly once again.

Looking at the old lady's aggressive gaze, I thought that if I didn't have a viable solution, I would have already become a pile of bones by the time Uncle Chen finds me.

Right now, the only thing I can count on is the book my grandfather taught me. It's just that there doesn't seem to be any way to make a spirit body in it.

But I was extremely unreconciled, and suddenly said: ”Have you heard of Soul Painter? I am the Soul Painter, wouldn't getting a spirit body be an easy task? ”

”You are the Soul Painter?” I heaved a sigh of relief. The old lady really did know about this. She actually took a step back and looked at me with a hint of wariness in her eyes.

I lightly nodded my head and didn't continue speaking. I took advantage of this time to desperately think of a solution.

”Grandma, he is Soul Painter, the one who scared me away was the one who invited the White Tiger,” the little boy suddenly interrupted.

I started and turned to look at him, thinking to myself, ”You little bastard, you're on top of a girl with a oval face.”

”Why are you so weak as a Soul Painter?” The old lady obviously believed the little boy's words, and she suddenly changed the subject and asked me again.

Hearing this, I immediately blushed. I thought to myself that if it wasn't for the fact that I was a laborer and my skills were poor, I wouldn't have been brought here in such a muddled manner.

”I do not have the strength, but my master is different.” It was said that leaning against a big tree was a good way to take advantage of the shade. When the old lady asked me, I suddenly had an idea and blindly made up a master.

He went back and forth a few times, and finally turned around to size me up and said, ”I can release you, but you only have three days at most. If you don't fix my ancestor's spirit body by then, don't blame me for taking the life of that girl called Lanlan.”

I sucked in a breath of cold air. I had wanted to say something, but the old lady suddenly waved her hand, causing me to feel a little dizzy, so I struggled with my life. However, before I could regain my senses, my body trembled, and my body started to ache.
