After thinking for a long time, she could only shift the blame onto Wu Hua.

"When Lord Kang said that I had been injured too frequently and that my soul was somewhat damaged, he placed me under the Bodhi tree to recuperate for some time!"

After hearing her explanation, everyone nodded in relief.

Mu Feng took Qin Luo's hand and led her to a large tree nearby.

The person tied to the tree was indeed the fake Niu Niu, Mu Feng pointed to the person tied up.

"Luo Luo, her name is Yi'er. She was taken in by Li Jun and brought to the Shenyou Sect when she was seven years old. Niu Niu was killed by them, and her body is still hanging in that same mountain forest!"

Qin Luo's heart clenched upon hearing this, and she glared sharply at Yi'er.

"Who is your master?"

Yi'er raised her bloodied and mangled face to look at her. In that one glance, she felt relieved that Qin Luo hadn't been killed by her.

"I don't know. I only know that Li Jun is the leader of the Divine Ghost Sect, and Madam Zhang is the head of its halls!"

Seeing that she answered readily, Qin Luo continued to press for answers.

"The Divine Ghost Cult? Who is your leader?"

Yi'er shook her head

"I don't know, I'm just a very low-level follower!"

Qin Luo stared intently at her, as if trying to see through her heart.

"You don't even know the exact location of the church?"

Yi'er shook her head again: "I don't know!"

Seeing that she really didn't know anything, Qin Luo decided not to ask any more questions.

She turned her head to look at Mu Feng: "Uncle, kill him!"

Yi'er stared at her in disbelief, the light in her eyes instantly extinguished.

She thought Qin Luo would have a change of heart and spare her life!

At most, we would just drive her away and let her fend for herself, but I never expected...

She let out a strange, eerie laugh, and in her final moment, she remembered her courtesan mother.

I remembered the days of training, and I remembered Li Jun's disgusting gaze.

But what remained etched in her mind were Qin Luo's smiling faces and her repeated hugs!

Qin Luo turned and left without pausing for a moment.

She didn't look back even once until Mu Feng finished off Yi'er.

Qin Luo walked up to Qin Ling and Qin Liang and bowed to them.

"Grandpa, Uncle! I want to go back and find Niu Niu's body. She was so timid; I don't want her hanging there all alone!"

Qin Ling and Qin Liang said in unison, "I'll go with you!"

Qin Luo quickly stopped the two.

"No, Uncle, it's enough for you to come with me! You two head towards Anminzhou, we'll catch up quickly!"

Qin Ling thought that having Mu Feng around would be fine, since all of them combined couldn't defeat him alone.

He glanced at Qin Liang, who said nothing, only nodding slightly.

He then looked at Qin Luo.

"Okay, then you all need to be careful. The seven hundred is yours; we'll meet at Anminzhou!"

''good! ''

Doctor You handed the handkerchief wrapped around Niu Niu's face to Qin Luo.

"This belongs to Niu Niu. Take it and bury it with her body!"

Qin Luo reached out and took it, putting it into her cloth bag.

Shuiying and Jingming had been waiting for a long time!

Finally, when Qin Luokong came down, Shui Ying hugged her and started crying.

"Waaaah! Luo Luo, I thought you weren't coming back! I was so scared!"

Qin Luo patted her gently to comfort her, saying, "It's alright, don't cry. I'm fine, aren't I? Look..."

As he spoke, he spun around in front of her.

Shui Ying then wiped away her tears.

Jingming stepped forward and called out, "Sister!"

Then I wanted to see if Qin Luo had survived his ordeal.

Seeing his action, Qin Luo quickly covered his eyes.

"Don't look if you don't want to go blind! I can assure you the past is over, and I couldn't be better off now!"

Jingming immediately understood: "Sister, you've encountered..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qin Luo covered her mouth with his hand as he moved down.

"Just understand it in your heart, don't say it, don't say it~"

After Jingming nodded to indicate that she understood, she removed her hand.

Qin Luo looked at the two people in front of him and gave them instructions.

"You two go to Anminzhou with Grandpa and the others first. Uncle and I are going to find Niu Niu. See you in a few days!"

Shuiying nodded obediently, while Jingming shook her head.

"Sister, I'll go with you. Niu Niu died a violent death; perhaps her soul is still lingering there. I can send her into reincarnation!"

Qin Luo was deeply moved upon hearing this.

"Did the temple keeper and the others agree?"

"They'll definitely agree if you go with them!"

"Alright! It's getting late, let's set off first thing tomorrow morning!"

The two agreed on a time and then went their separate ways.

As soon as Qin Luo turned around, she saw Qin Yunyuan standing not far away.

She walked over quickly and asked.

"Big cousin, is there something you need?"

Qin Yunyuan was a little embarrassed

"Um, Luo Luo, can I come with you?"

Qin Luo refused outright, but then worried about upsetting his sensitive older cousin.

I just made up an excuse.

"No, my eldest cousin has to look after Shuiying for me. I don't trust anyone else to watch over her!"

Qin Yunyuan felt a mix of emotions—a little happy, a little unhappy!

Seeing the complicated look on his face, Qin Luo quietly approached him and slipped the hair dye into his bag.

"Big brother, this is hair dye. If you see silver growing from Shuiying's roots, apply this to her hair immediately!"

Qin Yunyuan asked, puzzled, "She has premature gray hair?"

Qin Luo…

"It's not that it's not; she, like me, is a messenger of auspicious beasts, with naturally full white hair. Her auspicious beast recently disappeared, and I don't know if it will affect her. So, could you please protect her for me, eldest cousin?"

A sense of mission welled up in Qin Yunyuan.

"Don't worry, I'll keep a close watch on her and make sure no one notices anything unusual about her!"

Qin Luo patted his arm solemnly.

"It's up to you!"

Qin Yunyuan's expression was also exceptionally serious.

''good! ''

Wu Hua listened to their conversation and laughed uncontrollably in the space.

Because it was in a better mood, the space became clear and sunny with a gentle breeze!

After Wu Hua finished laughing, she started chatting with Qin Luo.

"Luo Luo, haven't you noticed how easily they're fooled? They believe everything they say!"

Hearing it say that, Qin Luo felt a pang of guilt.

"It's not that they're easily fooled, it's that they trusted me too much! Ugh, I deserve to die!"

Wu Hua thought she was blaming herself again, so she tried to comfort her.

"It's a white lie, they won't blame you!"

"Really?"

''certainly! ''

Wu Hua doesn't know yet.

Qin Luo planned to keep the disappearance of the beast realm a secret for the rest of his life, using a white lie…

She felt that Wu Hua was still a cub, and even if she knew, there was nothing she could do!

Instead of spending your days being depressed and overthinking, you might as well grow up happily!

After she passes away, Heaven will take Wu Hua away; perhaps the Beast Realm will return by then.

Even if they don't come back, at least the Heavenly Dao is there to help look after them!

In every aspect, she is countless times better than me, a mere little Karami!
