"I broke my promise, Xiaoxi!"
Zhang Yayan cried silently, tears falling drop by drop. "After I came down the mountain, I found out that the people who bought the mountain were the ones who used the evil spirit to kill my master. This time, they said they wanted to exorcise the evil spirit as a trap for me. They wanted to kill us all so that they could easily take over the mountain where we lived. It was also during this time that I was destroyed by the evil spirit. When A Yan came down the mountain and arrived, I died in front of him."
"That was the first time I saw Ah Yan cry with such despair. His once righteous spiritual energy was transformed from the moment I died. Without me, he fell into darkness. He killed those people, exorcised the evil spirits, and used most of his life to tear apart the evil spirits. He dragged his broken body and brought me back to the Taoist temple! From then on, he has been searching for my soul, using many forbidden techniques! After arriving in the underworld and learning that I had reincarnated, he gave up the opportunity to reincarnate and returned to the human world, never to stop searching for me. But when he finally found me... I had lost my memory and married and had children."
Zhang Yayan stared blankly at the ceiling and said, "I still remember the first time we met in this life. His eyes changed from joy and excitement to despair and indifference. I didn't understand it at the time. After my memories from my past life came back, I realized that he lived such a tiring life, as if his life... was only lived for me. Xiaoxi, I am sorry for him."
After hearing this, Wen Xi could only sigh.
"Mom, you haven't done anything wrong to anyone. There's no need to blame yourself. None of this is your fault. It's just fate."
Wen Xi hesitated and said, "Whether you carry the memories of your past life or this life, you are now just a soul. You only need to live for yourself. No matter what choice you make, I will support you."
Even if she wanted to choose Cheng Yan, Wen Xi thought... she wouldn't object.
Although this idea makes her feel sorry for her dad, but... everyone has the right to live for themselves. Her mom has already sacrificed so much for her, and she hopes her mom will be happy!
Zhang Yayan wiped the tears from her cheeks, raised the corners of her lips, and smiled gently, "My little darling, I feel very relieved and happy when you say that. In fact, I haven't thought about it yet. I know how long it will take to condense the soul body. Anyway, I will accompany Qingshan until old age, and watch you get married and have children, and I will be satisfied."
"Okay, whatever mom says is fine."
Wen Xi smiled and said, "But don't worry about me getting married and having children. I have my own mission and responsibilities. Sooner or later I will return to the underworld to succeed. I won't cause trouble for others. Leave this kind of thing to my brothers and sisters."
Zhang Yayan shook her head and laughed, tapping her forehead and saying, "Even if you are going to succeed the throne of the underworld, it won't affect your love life. If it's not meant to be, then forget it. But if you do meet someone, then you can have a good relationship."
"What's the point of talking about love? It will only slow down my sword-drawing speed."
Wen Xi murmured silently.
"What are you talking about?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing. Mom, it's taking longer and longer for you to condense your soul. I think it's because the Styx Spirit has taken effect. While I'm resting, you can go to the ancient copper coin to practice. Liang Yuhui and the others will also help you."
"I actually feel that being around you and the spiritual power you carry makes me feel very comfortable. It might not be entirely due to the Spirit of the Styx."
Zhang Yayan narrowed her eyes and absorbed the spiritual power from Wen Xi.
"I'll give you this jade pendant as well. I hope it's useful to you."
Wen Xi gave the jade pendant he brought back from the Luo family to Zhang Yayan. Because it carried profound merits, Zhang Yayan could take it and wear it.
For several days in a row, the Wen family was very lively. Neither Wen Jianghan nor Wen Chenxi had returned home on time for a long time.
Cheng Yan, who had disappeared for a long time, finally passed on a message. The ugly creature Shadow, who he had been tracking for a long time and came out of the forbidden area, finally showed up. However, the turbid energy of Shadow was very powerful, and he could not succeed for the time being. He would find another opportunity to attack.
Wen Xi also sent a message to Judge Lu and the others, and the entire underworld was mobilized to hunt down the Shadow who came out of the forbidden area, and they were determined to capture him!
Changjing City returned to its former tranquility, as if the ghost town had never appeared.

Early in the morning, Wen Xi was drinking the milk prepared by Zhang Yayan for her. After breakfast, she picked up her schoolbag and prepared to go out to school.
After a long vacation, she is about to return to school.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw several cars parked in front of the Wen family villa. Groups of people were surrounding Wen Chenxi and Xiao Shaoyan, talking about something.
Xiao Shaoyan saw her at a glance, especially when he saw her wearing the uniform of the aristocratic college and carrying a schoolbag, his brows immediately frowned.
He asked, "Wen Xi, are you going to study?"
Wen Xi said as a matter of course, "Yes, I took too long to leave before, and I have to go back to class. You guys continue chatting, I'm leaving first."
Wen Chenxi called out to her, "Wait, Xiaoxi!"
He walked over with a serious expression and said, "I think you should stay away from school for the time being."
"Why?"
Wen Xi frowned, "What? Is there something wrong at school?"
Xiao Shaoyan stepped forward and said, "Well, I just received news that the aristocratic school you attend... was suddenly shrouded in a ghostly realm."
"Hasn't the ghost zone appeared in a long time? Why did it suddenly appear again, and the area it targeted was actually a school?"
Wen Xi rubbed his brow and said, "If it really is our school, then I have to go even more."
Wen Chenxi flipped through the documents and said, "The scene has been sealed off by the Special Management Bureau. It's currently impossible to determine the level of this ghost domain."
"Let's go. We can't wait any longer. There are so many students inside. Don't waste time."
"good!"
Wen Chenxi drove all the way to the gate of the Noble Academy.
The nearby streets were cleared and not a single person could be seen. The sky above the college was covered with a dark gray layer. From a distance, it looked like a layer of dark clouds covering the sky.
As soon as Wen Chenxi and his companions got off the car, staff from the Special Management Bureau came forward.
"Captain Wen, this ghost domain seems quite powerful. We originally formed a small team and wanted to go in and explore the way first, but we were bounced away by the ghost domain. It seems that we didn't trigger the rules for opening the channel and don't meet the conditions."
Looking at the team waiting in the distance, Wen Chenxi asked in a deep voice, "How many students are there?"
"A rough estimate is that there are at least thousands of them. Those who didn't come to school later have been persuaded to return."
"That's a lot of stuff. If anything goes wrong, it will definitely cause a huge uproar."
Wen Chenxi pondered for a moment and said, "You ask the team to wait outside. Xiao Shaoyan, my sister Wen Xi and I will go in and take a look."
"good!"
