"Senior sister, why are you looking at me like that? Are you afraid?" Yang Xingyun asked, puzzled and worried.

The man had long eyebrows that reached his temples, wore a Taoist robe, and had a graceful figure. He had a black sword at his waist, and because it was not scabbard, Bi Xie could see the bright red blade at a glance, like a flame.

Bi Xie endured the throbbing pain in his head, calmly received the memories entering his mind, and after a moment of silence, gave Yang Xingyun a sweet smile: "Junior brother, I was just too nervous. This village is too strange, there's not a single person here."

Yang Xingyun smiled gently: "Senior sister, don't be afraid. I will protect you. Besides, there are so many senior uncles and senior masters here, as well as Master Jiang. No matter what unclean things are in Zhongling Village, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

"This Zhongling Village is rather strange, Xingyun, you must not be careless." An old man with an air of otherworldly wisdom walked over sternly, glanced coldly at Bi Xie, and solemnly instructed Yang Xingyun.

The old man was Lin Zhengxin, the master of Lin Xie and Yang Xingyun, and the head of the Lin Clan Taoist sect.

"Senior brother, I'm scared. This village is too strange. Not only is it on fire, but it's also covered with talismans. I feel a chill all over my body. I want to go with you." A delicate beauty squeezed between Yang Xingyun and Bi Xie and pushed Bi Xie out with her buttocks.

Unlike the group of people dressed in Taoist robes, the woman wore a bright red dress that accentuated her graceful figure.

Bi Xie smiled faintly and stepped back. Having already accepted all the memories, she knew that the beautiful woman in red was named Lin Xiaoyue, her junior sister, and the sect leader's only daughter.

Her body wasn't called Bi Xie, but Lin Xie. She was an orphan who, by chance, met Lin Zhengxin, who had come down the mountain to exorcise ghosts when she was three years old. Lin Zhengxin had created a small magic sect, but he had no offspring and no one could inherit his magic skills, so he brought Lin Xie back to the mountain.

At first, Lin Zhengxin treated Lin Xie quite well. Having no children of his own, he treated Lin Xie as his own daughter. Lin Xie was extremely talented in Taoist arts and quite bold. The more Lin Zhengxin saw her, the more satisfied he became, and he had the intention of passing on his mantle to Lin Xie.

However, a few years later, Lin Xiaoyue was born. Lin Zhengxin and Lin Xie met Yang Xingyun, who was not affiliated with any sect, when they went down the mountain to exorcise ghosts. Yang Xingyun did not know Taoist magic. He was a ghost hunter who specialized in hunting vampires.

Yang Xingyun was very interested in Taoist arts, so he became a disciple of Lin Zhengxin and began to learn Taoist arts.

Yang Xingyun was exceptionally talented, and his achievements in Taoist arts quickly surpassed those of Lin Xie. Lin Zhengxin was increasingly satisfied with him and planned to marry Lin Xiaoyue to him, completely regarding Yang Xingyun as his ideal son-in-law.

As for Lin Xie, who had once pleased him, he had long forgotten about him. Under the influence of his daughter Lin Xiaoyue, the father and daughter had always wanted to get rid of Lin Xie, but they had not found an opportunity.

During their trip to Zhongling Village, the father and daughter planned to secretly find an opportunity to kill Lin Xie and then frame the ghost causing trouble in Zhongling Village.

After receiving the plot details, Bi Xie gave Lin Xiaoyue and Lin Zhengxin a cold look and walked towards the other side of the group.

The village of Zhongling was massacred overnight, and the stench of blood lingered for a long time.

So far, three groups of Taoist sects have come to Zhongling Village to investigate the situation, but none of them have returned with all their members alive. The worst-hit sect only had one disciple return to report the news.

Anyone with eyes can see that the things that harmed Zhongling Village are not to be trifled with, and it's likely that sending a few people back to report was a deliberate act by them.
