Hua Mei exchanged a few words with Mo Qing next door, then hurriedly returned to Ping'an Prefecture.
"Madam, Liu Ruyan has been beaten to death by Lin Shixuan."
Ye Lanyin paused for a moment, then said gently, "Everyone has their own destiny. She is now the daughter of the Minister's family, and these matters are for the Minister's family to worry about."
"Yes, madam."
[Oh, the female lead is really lucky; she wasn't killed by Lin Shixuan, but Liu Ruyan, the young lady, did.]
[Tsk tsk, that's really something...]
Ye Lanyin took this matter to heart.
Thinking of Zou Shuang'er's background, she couldn't help but look up at the sky outside.
It's getting dark.
at night.
Lin Wanwan slept on the small bed, rocking back and forth.
She then got up from the bed and sat at the entrance of the main courtyard. Hua Xin, who was dozing at the entrance, was nearly scared to death when she saw the person who suddenly appeared.
"Miss, you scared me to death! Why aren't you sleeping?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Ye Lanyin, who was fast asleep inside the room.
Mother won't wake up until tomorrow.
"Auntie, I can't sleep."
"I want a hug~"
For some reason, she felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
As she spoke, a tear slid down her cheek, soaking her clothes.
Seeing her like this, Hua Xin felt sorry for her and immediately hugged her in her arms, then draped the small blanket she was wearing over Lin Wanwan.
He gently coaxed her, "Miss, what's wrong? Did you eat too much today?"
The little guy shook his head.
She just had a dream.
In her dream, she should have been completely annihilated, but just as her soul floated up to the ninth heaven, it was suddenly caught by a pair of strong hands.
His gentle gaze was fixed on me.
A pair of hands, soaked in blood, wiped themselves repeatedly before carefully touching themselves.
She couldn't see his face clearly, only that he was wearing a black and gold mask.
That familiar feeling had surrounded her for thousands of years.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Huaxin gently hummed a lullaby to lull her to sleep.
Lin Wanwan felt her eyelids getting heavy, and soon fell asleep with tears still on her face.
Hua Xin, her eyes red, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Miss, I'm willing to shorten my lifespan by ten years in exchange for your lifelong peace and happiness..."
Lin Wanwan is not simple, she knows that.
Lin Wanwan has spiritual roots, and she knows that too.
When Lin Wanwan was arrested, she heard Xiao Shizi say that she performed exorcisms in the black market.
She commanded the Emperor of Fengdu to save the villagers of Yunxi. Even His Majesty respected her, and the civil and military officials both loved and feared her.
When she moved, the wealthy lady came to congratulate her, but in reality, she just wanted to see her.
She saw all of this.
"The moon hangs high, the wind blows gently, good baby, it's time to sleep, Mommy loves you..."
In the darkness, Huaxin sang lullabies over and over again to lull her to sleep.
In the shadows, a young man dressed in black robes gazed intently at Hua Xin and Lin Wanwan before disappearing in a flash.
In my dream.
Lin Wanwan was trapped in an endless vortex of darkness, unable to extricate herself. She tried to grab onto the straws around her, but as soon as her hand touched them, they disappeared.
Lin Wanwan's eyes were glazed over. Just as she felt like she was about to suffocate, a faint light appeared not far away.
The girl took light steps and ran towards the light, her light purple dress swaying in the wind.
Feeling her steps were steady, she couldn't help but reach out her hand.
A pair of slender, fair hands appeared before her eyes, with a light purple spirit stone bracelet ring on the wrist. As she ran, the small bells on the bracelet swayed gently, occasionally making a faint sound.
She's back?
This is the cry from Lin Wanwan's heart.
Not long after.
Suddenly, a palace that she knew all too well appeared before her.
"Purple Spirit Palace?"
How did she end up here?
"Your Majesty, I beg you to revive Zi Ling. She cannot die. If she dies, the alignment of the nine stars will not be balanced, and the world will surely descend into chaos."
"Yes, Your Majesty, the alignment of the nine stars is her life's work, we cannot let it fall apart."
The girl, dressed in red, deftly tossed aside and knelt down, saying, "Your Majesty, Mingyue begs you to save Ziling."
"She saved our lives. Living for thousands of years is enough. If she disappears, I won't live either!"
Upon hearing this, the others all knelt down. "Yes, if it weren't for her, we would have already fallen into the demonic path. Anyway, without her, the Nine Stars Alignment would have been broken, and we would have been expelled from the God Realm. So, we might as well go with her."
The boy's gaze beneath the mask was deep and melancholic; his clenched hands and the bulging veins on his forehead revealed his current mood.
"Get up, all of you."
“No, I won’t get up unless you agree,” Mingyue insisted.
“If you kneel down again, she will truly be annihilated.”
The group helped each other to their feet and all looked at the boy in front of them.
The young man said in a low voice, "Even without you, I would not let her disappear, but since you have begged me, then go and protect her."
"I need the main souls of four of you to go with her to the realm of rebirth."
"As for who it is, you can decide for yourselves."
After hearing this, everyone remained silent for a moment.
Mingyue immediately cupped her hands in greeting: "Mingyue agrees. Mingyue will go to the Realm of Rebirth with her."
Canglan's gaze was indifferent, and her Adam's apple bobbed as she said, "Canglan agrees."
"Fu Guang agrees."
“Chiti agrees.”
"Qingming agrees."
"Shanfan agrees."
"Moonlight agrees."
"Xuantian agrees."
Seeing that the eight people hardly hesitated, the boy's lips curled up slightly.
Lin Wanwan opened her beautiful eyes and shook her head in disbelief.
Therefore, four of these eight people will lack a main soul, meaning their spiritual power will be reduced by almost two-thirds.
"No, no, don't do this! The nine stars won't align, they won't..."
"Mingyue, please don't do this. How can you break our vow?"
"Canglan, you can't agree, do you hear me?"
"That masked man, who are you? Why do I see you everywhere? Don't touch them, don't..."
No matter how much Lin Wanwan shouted, the person on the other side didn't hear her at all.
The boy took out a glass cup from his waist, put the main souls of the four people into the cup, and then flew away.
Lin Wanwan followed him with bloodshot eyes.
After flying for an unknown amount of time, the boy arrived at a waterfall. Just as Lin Wanwan was wondering what was going on, the boy waved his hand.
A vortex appeared in front of them, and Lin Wanwan quickly followed, then walked in with him.
Unexpectedly, what came into view was a cave, and Lin Wanwan was shocked by the scene before her.
"this……"
"How could this be..."
