So he couldn't be cruel, but he couldn't completely abandon his conscience.
This ultimately led to him suffering psychological torture over the years.
The painful torture finally ended when the old man died, but he knew that the psychological torture and painful self-blame would accompany him forever.
So he would never let himself fall to the same level again!
After recalling all this with a cold face, he suddenly came to his senses.
Looking at the unfamiliar face of Lin Xi in front of him, he realized that this was not the dead old man.
After a moment of silence, he lowered his eyelids and said sorry in a hard tone.
But he felt that his caution was not unreasonable.
After all, there is no free lunch in this world, and no one would want to teach him something for no reason.
Lin Xi could naturally tell that what he just said was not directed at her.
But that didn't stop her from responding to it.
She only looked the man up and down twice, and then spoke calmly.
"Why don't you just handle the matter yourself instead of spending so much time training someone like you who can't even compare to a finger of mine?"
"Or do you think that if you study for a while and find that even I can't handle it, you can solve it?"
"You're quite confident then."
Lin Xi's tone and expression were very calm, so calm that it seemed as if he was simply stating something, not secretly mocking someone.
The man suddenly felt even more embarrassed. Looking at Lin Xi's cold expression, he tried to save face and muttered something stubbornly.
"That would be best."
Seeing that he was so resistant at this moment, Lin Xi naturally would not force him anymore.
But after taking a closer look at the man's face, she raised her eyebrows and said meaningfully, "Sometimes, don't speak too early."
After saying that, he turned and left.
The man behind her didn't expect her to leave so soon.
Before I could react, I saw Lin Xi take out something out of thin air, then stepped on it and flew away.
Flying away...
His eyes widened instantly, looking at the scene in disbelief.
At this moment, he once again realized the value of Lin Xi's words just now.
Not only was he not able to match one of her fingers, he might not even be able to match one of her fingernails!
Thinking about how he had just rejected her proposal, he suddenly felt a surge of regret.
If only he hadn't refused so bluntly.
He didn't want to learn anything else, but he was quite interested in this "take-off" move.
But forget it, he probably won't deal with people like this again in the future anyway.
Not only that, after repaying the favor to the bar owner, he decided never to get involved in this kind of things again.
From now on he will just be an ordinary person and live a good life.
…
As for Lin Xi, he returned to the Feng Shui shop not long after.
Although no one was brought back from this trip, it was not without gain.
At least let her know that in this big world, there are definitely descendants of Taixuan Sect's disciples who have been stranded outside.
She would try to find those people if she could.
In this way, we are one step closer to restoring the former glory of Emperor Taixuanzong.
The next morning, just as daybreak was about to break, Wang Xiangyun finally returned.
She was in a good mood as she had avenged her great hatred. After arriving at the Feng Shui shop, she thanked Lin Xi again and then went to find Zhong Daquan to repay her gratitude.
As for the murderer who killed her, Hu Lei, and his accomplice Lao Jiang.
After being tortured by her for a whole night, he could no longer bear such torture, cried and called the police, and confessed his crime.
Within two days, Wang Xiangyun's body was found. The evidence was conclusive, and combined with Hu Lei and Lao Jiang's statements, the truth came to light.
What awaits Hu Lei and Lao Jiang in the end will be legal sanctions.
Over at the Feng Shui shop, nothing major happened in the next two days. Lin Xi seemed to have completely forgotten about the disciple who was the descendant of an outer sect disciple he had met before, and returned to his usual life.
But if nothing unexpected happens, she knows that the man will come to her door within five days at the latest.
While waiting for that person to come to his door, Lin Xi encountered a rather interesting thing.
That day, a man hurried to the Feng Shui shop, with a look of wanting to cry but unable to, and asked Lin Xi for help.
He said he seemed to be haunted by a female ghost.
Moreover, this is not an ordinary female ghost, it looks like a ghost bride.
The man's name is Tong Kuan, and he is an ordinary online taxi driver.
That evening, around eleven o'clock, after he took his last order, he packed up and rushed home.
As a result, the car drove all the way without anything strange happening, but when it drove into the underground garage and was about to get out, the whole person was shocked by what he saw in the rearview mirror.
At that time, he just casually glanced at the rearview mirror, and unexpectedly saw a woman in a red Xiuhe dress sitting in the back seat.
Tong Kuan’s first reaction was that he was dazzled.
He rubbed his eyes quickly and looked at the back seat again.
Only then did he realize that the bride not only did not disappear, but was getting closer and closer to the center console, so close that she was almost sticking to him!
Tong Kuan was so frightened that he screamed and jumped out of the car, crawling all the way, and couldn't help looking back as he ran.
He wished that the ghost bride was really his hallucination, but until he ran from the garage to the security booth, the ghost bride was still following him.
Seeing him running so fast, the ghost bride looked hurt and said that they were destined to be together and she would not hurt him.
When Tong Kuan heard this, he was almost scared to death.
What do you mean by destiny? He already has a wife, so why does he still talk about destiny?
He loves his wife and has never thought about cheating on her!
When he ran to the security booth, the security guard on night shift was playing with his cell phone.
When he saw the security guard, Tong Kuan suddenly felt safe. He quickly ran in and hid behind the security guard, and asked the security guard if he had seen the ghost.
He described the ghost bride's appearance to the security guard, who looked back twice but saw nothing.
At that moment, Tong Kuan seemed to see the word "lunatic" in his eyes.
Tong Kuan was really about to cry at that time.
So only he could see the ghost, no one else could see it!
Could it be that, as she said, the two of them were destined to be together?
