Mrs. Wang wanted to kneel.
Chen Qi stepped aside: "Everything is predestined, there's no need to worry too much!"
"What is destined to be yours will be yours, and what is not, you cannot force."
Mrs. Wang burst into tears: "Thank you, Immortal!"
Tian Hongtao: So it turns out I not only died young, but I was also destined to be alone?
I'm just a pitiful person, I don't have anyone else's fate!
How could they be so pitiful?!
Cang Ze and He Xuan also had complicated expressions.
Tian Hongtao was the richest among them, and he was about to retire, so everyone thought he would be the easiest to get by.
With a wealthy family and a veteran's pension, he must be doing very well.
I never expected it to be this bad.
He was being stared at with such sympathetic eyes by his comrades.
Tian Hongtao: ...
When the Tian couple came to acknowledge their kinship, Mrs. Wang drank the tea served to her son and daughter-in-law and then let them leave.
They did not go with the Tian couple.
As soon as they left, Mrs. Wang passed away peacefully.
There was no pain, no illness, and that night I was dressed in my funeral clothes, looking perfectly normal.
The next day, when the village chief's wife brought him food, the old man's body had already cooled down.
The Tian couple, who hadn't even left the town, returned to see the old man off on his deathbed.
Tian Hongtao only found out later. After retiring, he had some free time and made a special trip to offer incense, set up a table, and kowtow to the old man.
According to the old man's wishes, he was buried in this small courtyard after his death, which can be considered as fulfilling his wish.
Upon returning to Kyoto, Chen Qi went to find Li Ziju.
Li Ziju had just taken a shower; the water was still dripping from his hair.
He opened the door and invited Chen Qi to sit down: "Would you like something to drink?"
"You brought people into that cave! Didn't we agree that I could handle this myself?!"
"Let's have some tea!" Li Ziju brewed a cup of tea for Chen Qi.
Chen Qi: "..."
She didn't speak or drink any water, she just stared at Li Zijiu.
Li Ziju poured himself a glass as well.
“The people in the superpower team aren’t just sitting around doing nothing; they can handle this kind of work. Your cat… is pretty strong!” This was the first time Li Zijiu had seen the cat demon use its claws.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have known that this cat could devour souls.
"By the way, how did you know we went in? We took a different route!" The tunnel that the partner company dug was originally intended for Chen Qi to take the old lady outside.
They had tried to persuade the old lady before, but they just couldn't get through to her.
They weren't allowed to enter at all.
That's why I thought of digging a path from the back of the mountain to enter the cave.
Unexpectedly, Chen Qi managed to win over the old lady.
They even sent a cat in to handle it.
Chen Qi: "If it weren't for you, that cave wouldn't have been ruined!"
Li Ziju: ...It was indeed caused when they were collecting vengeful spirits. The vengeful spirits were very uncontrollable. If it weren't for the cat demon's powerful devouring ability, a few might have escaped.
So that's what got discovered.
Li Ziju then said, "Is that cat... alright? We can bring the superpower team if needed!"
The team has a healer with superpowers, so they have strengths in dealing with these kinds of situations.
Shen Qi nodded.
"No problem!" The cat demon can improve its cultivation by devouring those vengeful spirits, so there's no need to worry about being harmed.
If it weren't for Chen Qi stopping her, the cat demon would have become a top-tier demon long ago.
Chen Qi took out a purse and threw it in front of Li Zijiu.
Li Ziju's face lit up with joy.
Did they know how I felt, which is why they sent me the purse?
You should know that when a woman gives a man a purse, it means she likes him!
Chen Qi: "These..."
Judging from his expression, he seems to be overthinking things.
