On a peaceful day, Yan Jiu transformed into a Rakshasa, wielding a peach wood sword, and tirelessly spread warmth, sending souls who wanted to escape to the Western Paradise for free.

After the last soul escaped from the ancient tomb.

He laughed maniacally, looking up at the sky, as if he were laughing at his newfound freedom.

The next second.

He was pierced through the chest by a peach wood sword that seemed to cut through the air.

On the verge of death.

The sycophant turned and glanced at Yan Jiu.

Black hair and golden eyes.

The sycophant screamed, "Witch, witch..."

He thought back to his life.

Just as he was about to die far from home, Lan Yi was about to die.

His censor's residence was broken into by a man.

Before he died, the other party even arrogantly told him, "The person who killed you is named Wu Jiu."

Yan Jiu twirled her sword and chuckled upon hearing this, "Huh? Crying won't help."

The peach wood sword returned to her hand after completing its mission.

Accompanied by the soul that turned into blue smoke in the air.

Yan Jiu stood smiling in the shadows of the tomb entrance, gently stroking the peach wood sword that she found so easy to use.

At this moment.

"Director, what's wrong with Senior Yan!?"

Ma Weiwei's worried voice brought Yan Jiu back to his senses.

Yan Jiu looked into the distance.

Her body was placed in the jeep.

A group of people from the Xuanmen sect surrounded the car.

Lang Zongyi stood by the car door, also surprised that Yan Jiu would inexplicably enter a state of suspended animation.

As is widely known.

If a soul leaves the body against its own will, it is certain death unless someone with higher magical power intervenes.

Everything was fine just a second ago.

Why did Yan Jiu suddenly lose her soul?

Lang Zongyi pursed his lips and remained silent.

The people around them started chattering amongst themselves.

"I thought it was bad enough that we fell into the pit after the tremor, but this person being knocked unconscious is the worst part."

"Why would your soul suddenly leave your body, young friend?"

"I'm afraid we've offended the tomb owner."

"It must have been a taboo."

"Yes, otherwise everyone else would be fine, so why is she the only one in a state of dissociation?"

Unlike most highly respected archaeologists, the people of Xuanmen, whose limelight was stolen by Yan Jiu, did not hesitate to harbor the worst thoughts about Yan Jiu afterward.

With a swollen face, Yunfeng shouted at the top of his lungs, "What are you yelling about? Did you ever attend your mother's funeral like this? Anyone who wants to watch the show, get the hell away from me!"

Zhong Rushuang glared at the furious Yunfeng: "If you want to curse them, then curse them. But stop cursing Consultant Yan."

Chen He hid his schadenfreude: "Everyone is just worried and confused. They say there's strength in numbers. Let's all work together to find a solution so that she can recover as soon as possible."

Chen He wished Yan Jiu would never wake up.

The reason for saying this is that Chen He knows that only the Lang family's ruler in the whole world has vast and boundless magical power that can awaken a person whose soul has left their body.

But the ruler only seeks out those destined to receive it, and Chen He was confident that Yan Jiu would not be that destined person.

Huo Qian'er couldn't get a word in edgewise.

She was so anxious that she kept stamping her feet on the outside.

Old Master Lang said in a deep voice, "Young friend Yan will be fine."

Huo Qian'er exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"

Old Lang did not speak.

He was comforting Huo Qian'er, and he was also comforting himself. At this moment, he deeply regretted letting Yan Jiu come to the ancient tomb.

They actually harmed Yan Jiu.

Old Lang closed his eyes, filled with regret.

Just then.

Professor Qin exclaimed, "Look at the stone tablet!"

Upon hearing this...

Yan Jiu followed suit and turned her gaze.

All I saw was...

The stone tablet shattered suddenly as if struck in a vital spot, revealing another layer of stone underneath.

What's especially important is the red lettering engraved on it.

Someone recited: "Those who enter this tomb will be reborn."

These words were spoken.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"As expected, it was just a smokescreen."

"Now I don't have to worry about not being able to be reborn in the Pure Land."

"You know what, when I went in I was wondering if it would work, but now I can finally relax."

"Why did it suddenly crack?"

"Perhaps it was caused by the vibration."

The vibrant vermilion red no longer symbolizes blood, but rather represents hope; the same tombstone evokes different feelings in viewers.

Looking at the inscription on the tombstone, which possessed the same magical power as the red thread outside the coffin, Yan Jiu had a somewhat uncertain guess in her mind.

The stone tablet did not crack due to vibration.

It was because she took the sword and eliminated the spirits of those treacherous officials that it cracked open.

So.

What is the purpose of the inscription?

Lang Zongyi shared the same doubts as Yan Jiu.

Lang Zongyi did not believe that Wu Jiu would erect such a useless stele in front of the tomb for no reason.

Those who enter this tomb will not be able to be reborn in the Pure Land.

Those who enter this tomb will be reborn and return.

The inscriptions on the monuments, though drastically different, conveyed vastly different meanings.

The former is a curse, a warning.

The latter is praise and prophecy.

What exactly is Wu Jiu trying to express?

Lang Zongyi looked at Yan Jiu, who was unconscious in the back seat.

With Yan Jiu's extraordinary abilities.

What caused her soul to leave her body?

Yan Jiu stood at the entrance of the tomb with her arms crossed. This time, she tried to walk out of the tomb and found that she could.

It's hard for her not to think about why.

Yan Jiu floated to the roof of the car and told Lang Zongyi about how Wu Jiu had stopped her. She embellished the story.

In the end.

Yan Jiu didn't forget to complain.

"Tell me, isn't this outrageous or not?"

Lang Zongyi, who did not have the ability to see spirits or hear voices, did not answer Yan Jiu's question.

While Lang Zongyi was thinking about how to summon the soul.

System: [This is outrageous! Host, I suggest we raze the ancient tomb to appease your anger!]

It dared not utter a sound when Yan Jiu entered the ancient tomb.

They only dared to spout nonsense after leaving the ancient tomb.
