"Yes, I am He Niang." The female ghost's voice revealed a trace of despair; her face could no longer be called a face.
Once you pull the hair aside, you can see the white bones inside, as well as the empty eye sockets.
Li Muge had no good feelings towards this woman. If it weren't for this woman, who resolutely abandoned Zhao An after he disfigured himself for her, Zhao An probably wouldn't have fallen into such a state of obsession.
He would not have killed so many women.
He Niang knelt on the ground: "Young master, young lady, I am innocent!"
"Injustice? What injustice have you suffered?" Li Muge's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and a peaceful power gathered at her fingertips as she touched He Niang's brow.
This is the Soul Inquiry Technique of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect. Li Muge mastered it after watching it a few times.
The Red Moon Sect's library contains secret manuals and cultivation methods from various sects, all of which were commissioned by Li Muge.
One hundred years.
For the past hundred years, she has been branded as a jinx, feeling as if her head is no longer her own, and that it could fall off at any moment.
Only when Li Muge had a clear understanding of the information about the various sects could he feel a sense of security.
He Niang closed her eyes and did not struggle.
In He Niang's mind, the entire course of events involving Li Muge was recorded, a story that was completely different from what the people of Yangcheng and Zhao An himself had told her.
He Niang was born into a moderately wealthy family in Yangcheng.
She was pretty and shy, and extremely skilled in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. People who wanted to marry her practically wore out the doorstep of He Niang's family.
But He Niang had already arranged her fiancé long ago.
She and her fiancé were well-matched in terms of social standing and were childhood sweethearts with a stable relationship.
The marriage between the two families was originally planned to take place once He Niang's fiancé passed the imperial examination.
In order to pray to Buddha for her fiancé to pass the imperial examination, He Niang went to the temple every day to pray and donate a lot of money.
It was there that Zhao An fell in love with He Niang at first sight.
He began pursuing He Niang relentlessly, but He Niang remained unmoved. In fact, when Zhao An first confessed his feelings to her, she resolutely rejected him.
Despite being rejected, Zhao An showed no sign of restraint.
They actually started spreading rumors in Yangcheng, claiming that He Niang was in love with him and that they had even seen He Niang's body.
The two were deeply in love.
Yangcheng is such a small place that rumors spread very quickly, and He Niang's explanations were easily drowned out by the rumors.
Even her own parents warned her not to get too close to Zhao An.
This world is inherently unfair to women.
A man can have three wives and four concubines.
Women, however, cannot even have the slightest stigma.
He Niang was heartbroken and hated Zhao An to the core, even though she didn't believe her own parents.
But it's alright.
He Niang's fiancé wrote to comfort her.
He told her not to be afraid, and that once he passed the imperial examination, he would marry He Niang in a grand and glorious ceremony.
In the end, He Niang's fiancé kept his promise and married her in a grand procession with eight bearers and a long red bridal procession.
On their wedding night, He Niang watched as her husband was repeatedly slashed across the neck by Zhao An.
“Zhao An is a demon.” He Niang wished she could drink his blood and eat his flesh. “I have absolutely no relationship with him, but he insists that I have wronged him.”
"He clearly tied me up and tried to take advantage of me during that fire. Luckily, my husband came back and saved me. The fire started during our fight. He..."
That beast Zhao An insisted it was to save me.
Even as a woman, Li Muge felt heartbroken listening to this. How could there be a man like this? He must be suffering from delusions.
He Niang lowered her head and cried out in anguish, "After I died, that beast gouged out my eyes and offered me as a sacrifice to the Ghost King, where I suffered endless torment and humiliation."
"But they say this is retribution for my infidelity. Heaven can bear witness that I have never spoken a single word to him, yet Zhao An insists that I am in love with him, and that I have even harmed my family, my husband, and so many innocent women."
"I only escaped because Young Master Feng killed the Ghost King."
Anger and despair filled He Niang's heart; she felt utterly wronged.
This was the first time Li Muge had encountered a man like this: "He Niang, get up first. I promise you, I will definitely kill Zhao An and avenge you."
She kills anyone with this kind of problem.
The woman shook her head: "No, young master, I want to kill him with my own hands to avenge my family and husband. They died so unjustly."
"Even at any cost."
“Alright.” Li Muge lowered her eyes: “Actually, she understands He Niang’s feelings. If she had experienced what He Niang had experienced, she would definitely feel the same resentment as He Niang.”
"So where is Zhao An now?" Li Muge helped He Niang up, her fingertips touching He Niang's cold hand.
He Niang quickly pulled her hand back: "Young master, my hands are dirty."
Mo Yan also felt sorry for He Niang's plight, which was simply an undeserved disaster.
"Zhao An was saved by someone. Who is it? I don't know, but Zhao An has completely gone mad. He seems to want to kill you. Young master, you must be careful."
"Alright, by the way, He Niang, didn't you want revenge? If I had the chance to let you take your revenge, would you be willing to agree?"
He Niang immediately knelt down, filled with gratitude: "As long as Zhao An can be killed, He Niang will agree to anything."
Li Muge smiled and said, "If you want to defeat a delusional madman, it's simple: just give him a dream."
A beautiful dream.
