Chapter 171 You're not going to steal my credit, are you?
Yu Zhiyi didn't speak, but just quietly looked at Cao Zhaodi.
Cao Zhaodi, however, chuckled softly.
The laughter grew louder and louder, but also more and more desolate.
As the wind howled, her figure changed drastically. Her hair suddenly grew longer, and her already scarlet eyes emitted an eerie red light. On her hands, which were exposed outside her clothes, her nails grew wildly, turning into ten sharp red claws.
Ouyang Shuo's expression changed drastically: "Oh no! She's losing her mind!"
Although they are both vengeful ghosts, a vengeful ghost that has lost its mind and one that has not are completely different things.
There were no vengeful ghosts who had lost their minds; they could still talk to her and even discuss leaving Caonan Village.
But a vengeful ghost that has lost its mind won't talk nonsense with them.
Moreover, the vengeful spirit cannot feel pain, so unless it is killed, it can maintain its highest combat power.
It's a fight to the death.
You Bingyue's lips trembled slightly.
Although she was a top assassin in her previous life, she had killed countless people.
But that's murder!
No matter how capable a person is, as long as the method is right, she can find a way to succeed.
Killing demons, however, was beyond her capabilities.
Let alone killing ghosts, she was so shocked by this crazed, vengeful spirit that she could barely stand.
The others also looked grim.
Of these people, only Ouyang Shuo and Du Ziheng had slightly better expressions, because one had the strength to protect himself, and the other had Yu Zhiyi's protective charm.
Oh, Liu Feiyang's complexion was alright, because he was standing right next to Yu Zhiyi and wasn't affected by the evil aura at all. He just thought the female ghost's crazed appearance was a bit scary.
This is a visual shock, unlike the feeling of being invaded by ghostly energy.
Just when everyone was about to give up, Yu Zhiyi threw a talisman at them: "Wake up."
With a flash of golden light, the murderous aura surrounding Cao Zhaodi vanished completely. Not only did her long hair, long fingernails, and the red light in her eyes disappear, but even the terrible wound on her face that had been smashed out was gone.
For a fleeting moment, its eyes became incredibly clear.
However, the clarity only lasted for a moment before it was filled with pain again.
It covered its head and cried, "They...they were eaten by me!"
It turns out that after the Fan siblings died, their souls did not leave Caonan Village. They all saw what Cao Zhaodi had gone through, but because they were just ordinary spirits with no power, they could not help her.
When Cao Zhaodi was drowned in the river by angry villagers and died after accidentally hitting her head on a rock by the riverbed, the siblings came to her side to comfort her.
However, Cao Zhaodi died with immense hatred in her heart.
She hated the injustices she had suffered since childhood, hated that God had taken away her only warmth, hated the ignorant villagers, and also hated... Cao Yaozu.
The moment she died, she became a vengeful ghost and devoured her younger brother, Fan, who was standing nearby.
Just as it was about to devour Sister Fan as well, it was injured by the golden light of merit emanating from Sister Fan, and it briefly regained its senses.
Knowing that it had devoured Fan's younger brother's soul, it was in great pain and immediately went mad again.
To prevent it from turning into a mindless demon, Sister Fan transferred all her merits to Cao Zhaodi, allowing it to remain sensible.
However, during the transfer process, Cao Zhaodi, who had lost her mind, also ate Sister Fan, who did not have the protection of the golden light of merit.
Therefore, it was able to become a powerful ghost in a short time, but because it was blessed by Sister Fan's merits and golden light, it was able to maintain its rationality.
This memory was too painful, so in order to forget it, it sank to the bottom of the river and slept.
If Cao Yaozu hadn't woken it up later, it might have remained asleep for a very long time.
Liu Feiyang stared in disbelief: "These two siblings are too pitiful."
"big……"
A death stare swept over him.
Liu Feiyang abruptly changed the subject: "Sir, could you please bring the souls of the brother and sister back to life?"
Yu Zhiyi shook her head: "When they are swallowed by their own kind of ghosts, they are completely annihilated. If it were when Cao Zhaodi had just swallowed them, there might have been a way to pull them out of her body, but so much time has passed, and they have all turned into the pure ghost energy in Cao Zhaodi's body. Even if a Great Luo Golden Immortal came, there would be no way to do it."
Cao Zhaodi sobbed in anguish, "Why... Sister Fan, why were you so foolish?"
Yu Zhiyi sighed: "Because she is a kind girl."
If Sister Fan hadn't been so kind, she wouldn't have been able to accumulate so much merit and good fortune at such a young age.
She said to Cao Zhaodi, "Although you have devoured two souls, Sister Cao has voluntarily given you her merits, which is enough to offset your sins. I will now disperse your evil aura so that you can be reincarnated."
"In your next life, you will be reborn into a happy family, loved by your parents, with a smooth marriage, and peace and joy."
Cao Zhaodi was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked intently at Cao Yaozu: "What will he do?"
What exactly do you want to ask?
Will he be found by the Fan family?
Yu Zhiyi pondered for a moment: "Yes, in fact, the Fan family has already realized that the disappearance of the two siblings is related to Cao Nan Village, and has even issued a reward for their capture. Once this matter is settled, it won't be long before they find out that Cao Yaozu is Miss Fan's child."
Cao Zhaodi pondered for a moment, then suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Alright."
She was very conflicted about whether or not to let Cao Yaozu return to the Fan family.
However, if Cao Yaozu's return can bring justice to the Fan siblings, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
Most importantly, it could sense the righteous spirit emanating from the woman before it.
It believes that this woman will not let Cao Yaozu escape legal punishment.
As its last vestige of obsession dissipated, its soul also became transparent.
Yu Zhiyi made hand seals while chanting the Rebirth Mantra.
A moment later, a deep door appeared behind Cao Zhaodi.
The moment the door appeared, the temperature by the river dropped considerably.
Fortunately, Cao Zhaodi quickly stepped through the door, and the door disappeared as well.
After Cao Zhaodi left, Caonan Village became increasingly dilapidated.
Cao Yaozu tried to run, but before he could even move, You Bingyue rushed forward and knocked him to the ground: "You dare to run?!"
Soon, You Bingyue had tied the man up. Her gaze swept over Yu Zhiyi's indifferent face, and she said coldly, "I subdued him, so the credit is mine. As a member of the imperial court, Doctor Yu shouldn't be trying to steal credit from a lowly bounty hunter like me, right?"
She spoke with such confidence that everyone except Yu Zhi was stunned.
