Chapter 376 is well-written, but unfortunately riddled with plot holes.
Nuan'er ultimately couldn't bear to give up the chance to be reincarnated.
After becoming a ghost, she automatically came to understand some of the laws of heaven and earth.
She had a strong premonition that if she gave up the chance to be reincarnated, she would be a wandering ghost for the rest of her life.
Being able to become a wandering ghost is actually a pretty good ending. An even worse ending is that one day, she encounters a very powerful exorcist who wants to kill her without even knowing what happened.
After all, it's rare to find a Taoist priest as reasonable as the Second Miss.
"Then...how should this servant reincarnate?"
Yu Zhiyi said calmly, "Once I've finished dealing with things here, I'll send you on your way."
That sounds rather creepy.
Nuan'er's lips twitched slightly, but she still obediently stepped aside.
The interaction between the human and the ghost was actually quite "peaceful," at least Yu Zhiyi didn't feel there was anything wrong with it.
But this scene was too horrifying for others.
The crowd, who had originally decided to watch, moved again, searching for nearby cover, trembling as they peered out to observe.
All the people saw was the resentful female ghost's two pitch-black claws extending and retracting freely, and then she lifted Chen Xinyue up as if she were a chick.
Chen Xinyue, who was considered a genius girl in the martial arts world, was completely powerless against her opponent.
Even from ten meters away, they could feel the biting, chilling cold.
But the second young lady of the Jiang family easily swatted the female ghost away.
After Miss Jiang Er made a move, the fierce female ghost in front of Chen Xinyue turned into a docile kitten.
This scene looks surreal no matter how you look at it.
Chen Xinyue didn't find it fantastical.
At that moment, she felt as if she was facing a terrible disaster.
As it turned out, her intuition was very accurate.
After Nuan'er's ghost appeared and identified the murderer, You Bingyue immediately switched sides, pointing at her with a heartbroken expression: "The murderer was you? You lied to me!?"
Her face was filled with grief and indignation.
She then looked at Du Ziheng and said, "Youlin, I was also deceived by her."
Then he said to Yu Zhiyi, "I'm sorry, Miss Jiang, I accused you before I knew the truth of the matter. But I was only trying to catch the murderer. I believe you will understand me, right?"
Du Ziheng sighed, "Bingyue, you're too hasty. But you're only trying to get justice for the victim, and you don't have any bad intentions. Yi'er isn't a petty person, and she certainly won't blame you."
Yu Zhiyi slowly uttered a "?"
She laughed angrily: "Du Ziheng, from what stand are you speaking on my behalf? And what right do you have to speak on my behalf?"
Jiang Liuyi scoffed: "Probably because his face is as big as a basin."
Du Ziheng: "?!"
His face is as big as a basin?!
Such a description was unacceptable to Du Ziheng, who had been praised since childhood.
However, nobody cared whether he could accept it or not.
Yu Zhiyi looked at You Bingyue expressionlessly: "So, if you mean well but end up doing something bad, it's not a bad thing?"
"Besides, whether you meant well or not, only heaven, earth, you, and I know."
You Bingyue smiled bitterly: "Miss Jiang... oh no, Lord Yu, the grudges between us are long gone. Can't you forgive my past mistakes?"
“I admit that I was young and impetuous in the past and did some things that I was sorry for. I know I was wrong and I have corrected my mistakes.”
"I promise I will never bother Youlin again."
Yu Zhiyi raised her hand to interrupt her: "Whether you pester him or not is none of my business. It wasn't my intention to marry him in the first place, and I never thought of competing with you for anything. If you weren't so aggressive, what's wrong with you having two children in three years?"
"Besides, these things are irrelevant to today's events."
She said coldly, "Since you know that solving a case requires evidence, you should understand that you need to be careful when looking for evidence, instead of just finding something with obvious flaws and convicting someone."
"Today you are accusing me. I can summon Nuan'er's ghost to identify the murderer, clear my name, and thwart the murderer's plot."
"If you're implicating someone else, even if your so-called evidence is full of holes, your imposing manner alone will be enough to nail an innocent person to the status of a murderer. At that point, you'll not only help the murderer escape legal punishment, but you'll also take another life!"
For the first time, her ethereal voice carried anger.
The aura of a Foundation Establishment Realm expert erupted, and You Bingyue's originally nonchalant expression instantly froze.
Her pupils contracted sharply, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
How……
How could that be?
How can this woman have such a terrifying aura?
Yu Zhiyi smiled enigmatically: "Also, Miss You, could you please explain why you appeared with Miss Chen?"
You Bingyue suppressed her emotions and sighed, "I just happened to be passing by and met Miss Chen in the small garden..."
She looked embarrassed and annoyed: "I was really fooled by her!"
“When I met her, she looked flustered. As you know, I can’t stand injustice. Seeing her like this, I asked her what had happened. She said she had witnessed a murder.”
In her description, she was just a big-time grudge who happened to be passing by, a good person who spoke out for justice because she knew something was wrong.
Du Ziheng said, "This Miss Chen is truly cunning. It's quite normal for Bingyue to be deceived by her."
You Bingyue looked at him with emotion: "Youlin, you're the one who understands me best."
Suddenly, a crisp clapping sound rang out.
The two looked in the direction of the applause and saw Yu Zhiyi clapping her hands with a sarcastic expression.
Du Ziheng's expression changed: "Yi'er, don't misunderstand..."
Yu Zhiyi ignored her and looked at You Bingyue expressionlessly: "Well made up, but unfortunately I have a witness."
As soon as she finished speaking, two tall figures strode in.
You Bingyue's pupils contracted sharply.
Both of them emerged from the shadows.
One of them was by the poplar tree outside the courtyard.
The tree trunk wasn't thick enough to be suitable for hiding people. Anyone who looked closely would be able to tell that someone was hiding inside.
However, precisely because it is not suitable for hiding people, most people will not look at it carefully.
In addition, the person was wearing a brownish-gray outfit, which made him almost blend into the surrounding environment of the trees...
Most importantly, from this location, you can see the top of a wall.
You Bingyue had just been peering into the courtyard from the top of that wall.
You Bingyue's heart was practically in her throat.
She really didn't want to face what was about to happen.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as she imagined.
Yu Zhiyi said calmly, "Miss Chen is somewhat hostile towards me. I'm worried that she might do something bad before I leave, so I've been having people secretly monitor her."
"Li Xingwen, tell me what you saw?"
You Bingyue swallowed almost imperceptibly, wanting to speak up and stop her.
