Bai Hao stared at the Taoist Master and shook his head slightly: "The divine decree is there, you can take revenge, but all you will get is resentment and enemies. You have no right to know the reason for the hatred. If you force yourself to know, your divine decree will be taken back, you will no longer be able to enter the cycle of reincarnation, and your soul will be scattered between heaven and earth."
The sorcerer paused for a moment, then said, "I know."
Bai Hao: "Don't you want to meet the ones you love again after you reincarnate?"
The Master of Deception: "They died without knowing why, and I'm like a coward, knowing nothing and doing nothing! Only after death can I use the reincarnation of the animal realm to gain the ability to take revenge, but those people are all dead, and I still know nothing! What exactly happened?!"
Why? Why did my wife die in that place? Why did my daughter commit suicide by jumping off a building? How did my parents die? I need to know why!
Why do they harbor such deep resentment? They refuse to enter the cycle of reincarnation yet still choose to kill those people. I bear their resentment, but I know nothing about it.
I don't deserve it! I don't deserve to see them again. My heart is already dead. I just want to know the truth about the past before I disappear!
The low, hoarse roar conveyed boundless despair, and for some reason, Qin Nan felt unusually heavy-hearted.
Chen Qiang and An Bei were also somewhat surprised. They really didn't know that this sorcerer wasn't a living person! And judging from his tone, he seemed to be carrying the hatred of his entire family. So, the person that An Bei and the others failed to save was also one of the executioners?
Bai Hao sent the cubs to play in the backyard, leaving only Bai Hao, Qin Nan, Chen Qiang, An Bei, and the Taoist Master in the house.
Bai Hao: "Do you still remember who you are?"
The Taoist priest paused for a moment, seemingly recalling something, and after a long while, said with a questioning tone, "I... my name is Chen Wen..."
Bai Hao: "Chen Wendong".
Chen Wendong: "Oh, I think so."
Bai Hao: "Who are your wife, daughter, and parents?"
Chen Wendong paused for a moment, then answered after a long while: "An Rui, Chen Yan, Luo Sujuan, Chen Pingsheng."
Bai Hao: "How did you die?"
Chen Wendong opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. He was just a soul and didn't remember what happened before he died. He could only remember his identity because he had been back in the mortal world for a long time and vaguely remembered some things.
He couldn't investigate the past either, otherwise the divine decree would be invalidated and he would disappear. So he didn't know anything. After taking revenge, he wanted to know, but he didn't have time to piece together the truth of the past, so he came to find Bai Hao.
Bai Hao: "Chen Wendong died from drowning while intoxicated."
Upon hearing this, Chen Wendong nodded indifferently. He didn't care about the cause of his death; he was utterly despondent and it didn't matter how he died.
Bai Hao: "An Rui died from falling from a building, Chen Yan died from falling from a building, Luo Sujuan died from drowning, and Chen Pingsheng died from falling off a cliff."
As Chen Wendong listened to Bai Hao's words, he clenched his fists tightly. Tong'an City has no sea, so why did his mother die by drowning? Tong'an City has many mountains, so where did his father fall off a cliff?
Bai Hao took out the mirror that Long Chengxiu had given him. This was a time-traveling mirror borrowed from Hei Wuchang in the underworld. It could trace back past events and could be used for projection or immersion.
Although Bai Hao can also create illusions, his abilities are ineffective due to the divine decree, and he can only rely on this magical artifact.
After thinking about it, Bai Hao decided to choose the immersive experience method.
The mirror was suspended in mid-air, its surface rippling with water and spreading mist, obscuring the scene in the front hall of the Qin residence. After a short while, the mist dissipated, and the crowd appeared on a bustling street.
Pedestrians passed right through the crowd. Except for Bai Hao and Chen Wendong, everyone else was startled and silently dodged the obstacles. After all, they were all living people, and it was really not their usual way of doing things.
The night market was brightly lit and bustling with activity, but suddenly a person rushed through the crowd as if fleeing for their life. Chen Wendong was slightly taken aback when he saw the girl running past him. In the short time that he was stunned, another group of people caught up with him.
Chen Wendong was startled and immediately ran towards his daughter, Chen Yan.
Bai Hao waved his hand, and the group appeared on another street. Chen Wendong kept trying to stop the group chasing Chen Yan, but it was just a remnant of the past. He could only miss them again and again. He shouted for Chen Yan to run, but it was no use.
However, when they were chasing each other across the road, the group was stopped by a red light for a while.
Bai Hao waved again, and the group appeared on the next street.
Chen Yan ran too fast and accidentally bumped into a woman. Qin Nan was startled when she saw the woman. This woman was Zhou Xuan's mother, the woman in red in Zhou Miao's illusion!
Before Chen Yan could even apologize, she turned and ran into a nearby alley.
The woman in red, cursing and swearing, dusted off her clothes and was about to leave when someone bumped into her shoulder.
"Can't you watch where you're going?! Are you all lining up to be reincarnated?!"
Just as the boy who bumped into the woman in red was about to get angry and make a move, the girl in the lead grabbed him and took out a stack of red bills from her bag.
"I'm so sorry I bumped into your clothes and damaged them. Consider this compensation for my friend. My friend was being inconsiderate, please don't be angry!"
Qin Nan looked at the smooth-talking girl who was solving the problem and felt that she looked familiar. It wasn't until she smiled and went up to the woman in red and asked where the blind man who had bumped into her had gone that Qin Nan suddenly remembered.
This girl is—Tang Zhen!
The woman who almost hit him on her bike!
The woman in red felt the thickness of the red bills, put them in her bag, and then pointed to the alley next to her with her chin.
"This is a dead end with only one road, and it's filthy inside! It looks like the back entrance to the Caspian Sea Bar."
Tang Zhen smiled and said thank you, then led his men to chase after them.
