This time, when that thing attacked his son, he didn't dare utter a sound either, acting very magnanimously and even advising her that since things had come to this, she could have another child.

"Give birth, give birth, give birth my ass! She's just not convinced, she wants an explanation!"

The man then revealed that if she continued to cause trouble, she would be punished for offending the gods.

The woman immediately understood: this man clearly knew what was going on, but dared not pursue the matter because he was afraid of dying, but she was not afraid.

She stormed into the ancestral hall, overturned the offering table, and smashed many memorial tablets.

So that thing also wanted her dead.

The woman glared at the village chief with resentment. They couldn't handle the main culprit, but fortunately, their benefactor had taken care of him. She couldn't handle the accomplices, though.

To be honest, these people are the real demons in human skin.

A group of ghosts surrounded them, staring menacingly at the village chief and the group of people, their resentment causing blood to flow from their seven orifices.

The village chief was truly terrified this time; these were all evil spirits! And the scholar who had protected him had already vanished into thin air. He felt that his own death was not far off.

He didn't want to die, and all his previous bravado had vanished; he was terrified, tears streaming down his face.

Just looking at this scene, it's as if a group of evil spirits are bullying kind and honest people. Others, however, find it ironic.

Shen Boyuan turned his head away, pretending he hadn't seen it.

The concept he learned from childhood was that the Taoist sect should unconditionally stand on the side of the living, and as for the sins they committed, the underworld would judge them after they died.

This was the first time he had tacitly allowed ghosts to attack ordinary people.

Chu Yuqi didn't have that many mental hurdles to overcome. She looked at Ming Zhuo with schadenfreude, thinking to herself, "You actually encouraged ghosts and monsters to harm people and get involved in karma. No wonder you're burdened with karmic obstacles."

Thinking this way, she felt much better. People who act so strangely usually have unstable minds; even if they are exceptionally talented, how far can they go?

In the novel, Mingzhuo's original fate was to become a powerful demon who wreaked havoc on the region, which gives us a glimpse into his destiny.

When Zhuang Xun heard something almost completely, he spoke up to remind them, "Stop. If you've taken someone's life, it won't be good for you to be reincarnated."

Hu Zhigao's wife snapped back to reality in time. She didn't care whether she could be reincarnated or not, since her son had already been eaten to the last crumb.

But they couldn't implicate their benefactor.

The ghosts bowed to Mingzhuo one by one and then disappeared.

Fang Linxiao felt the fog had dissipated considerably, and he quickly asked, "What should we do with this fierce corpse?"

The fierce corpses sensed the presence here during the battle and frantically ran this way, which gave them the opportunity to seal the enemy away.

The ferocious corpse, which had been roaring and struggling angrily just moments before, was now unusually quiet.

Mingzhuo frowned, stepped forward and released the seal. "Don't keep it trapped, it's very uncomfortable."

The moment the seal was broken, everyone instinctively picked up their magical artifacts.

Having fought the ferocious corpse for so long, they naturally knew that this thing had no mind at all, and were very afraid that it would suddenly become ferocious again.

Mingzhuo said, "Come with me, I'll take you to the person you want to see."

She despised those evil spirits as ugly things, but she didn't despise this fierce corpse at all, even though it had hideous scars on its face, damaged eyes, and was covered in the stench of death.

The monstrous corpse seemed to understand and obediently followed behind her.

A group of people headed towards the lake. Although the white fog had dissipated somewhat, the water vapor on the lake was still thick, and visibility remained poor.

When they reached the lakeside, Mingzhuo suddenly stopped. The fierce corpse suddenly became agitated and ran forward madly.

Three people and a ghost emerged from the fog ahead.

The female ghost paused for a moment when she saw the fierce corpse, then quickly ran towards them.

The ferocious corpse howled, and bloody tears streamed from its eyes. Its throat bones were broken, and it was only with great difficulty that it could make a sound.

"Child, it wasn't me..." Seeing the female ghost's appearance, it knew that she understood everything, so it gave up explaining and simply said, "Child, you have suffered."

Large tears rolled down the female ghost's face. She was strong-willed and never believed in tears, but she only showed weakness in front of this person.

She initially approached the other person to learn how to stab someone. A helpless brat like her had to be ruthless enough to survive in the village.

At that time, Hu Mazi said, "You little brat, how could you think like that? Studying is the right path, don't get any crooked ideas."

Later, she studied hard and was admitted to high school. Hu Mazi promised her parents that he would pay all her tuition and fees. He also said, "Go ahead and take the exam. I'll prepare your college expenses too."

He was able to come up with 300,000 yuan because he had acted bravely and saved someone from a thug's knife years ago.

However, he was sentenced to prison for seriously injuring his opponent in retaliation.

The family remembered his kindness and gave him some money.

It was this money that caught the eye of his cousin. In those days, everyone was poor, so why should he be living so well? It wasn't fair.

In this cannibalistic village, your hard work, ambition, and wealth... are all original sins.

They're desperate to drag you back into the mire, to make you rot and mold along with them.

As dusk fell, the fog finally dissipated, and the golden rays of the setting sun shone on the lake, creating a shimmering, breathtaking scene.

However, no one was in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery.

After that, they went to the cave under the ancestral hall again and were shocked by the scene inside.

Ji Yong, a senior in the profession and a man of considerable experience, had never witnessed such a terrifying situation.

That top scholar ghost has been entrenched in the cave for a thousand years, devouring countless people; it's practically a mass grave.

The thought that they had almost become food for the thousand-year-old evil spirit sent chills down everyone's spines.
