She has already realized this.
Otherwise, why would her master, Dai Xi, who hates corpses like poison, chase after Lou Qianzong, only to end up dealing with Luo Nian first?! For Dai Xi, this was a very helpless decision.
Upon hearing this, Chen Baiying's legs went weak and she almost collapsed to the ground, but thankfully the driver who came with her caught her in time.
The driver was completely bewildered: probably like Zhou Qianqian at the beginning, because no one had explained to him what "Jiang Shi" was, he didn't know that there were two zombies living in the mansion, and he wasn't afraid at all!
"Miss Chen, what's wrong?" Jiang Yuxuan asked, puzzled.
Chen Baiying: "That Lou Qianzong, like Luo Nian, has moved to our Chen Mansion."
The crowd was quite surprised.
Dai Xi asked, "Why?"
Chen Baiying shook her head and said, "At first, it was only Luo Nian. She said her apartment was destroyed and she had nowhere to stay, so she wanted to stay at my house for a few days. My older brother is kind-hearted, so he agreed. I didn't expect that Lou Qianzong to suddenly appear..."
At this point, she remembered that Lou Qianzong's appearance at the Chen Mansion was very strange. "Right, at the time, we didn't know how he appeared on the stairs of my house. Luo Nian even shouted at him. Now I finally understand that he and Luo Nian are both evil spirits."
"Bai Teng?" Jiang Yuxuan asked in surprise. "He should know that Luo Nian is a zombie, and he should also know that Lou Qianzong is a zombie. Why would he agree to let them live in his house?"
She suddenly remembered the first time Lou Qianzong appeared at the New Jue Nightclub, when she sang on stage, and the undisguised amazement in Chen Boteng's eyes when he looked at Lou Qianzong. She felt a strange pang of sadness in her heart.
Chen Baiying was also a bit confused about Jiang Yuxuan's question and couldn't answer it.
However, Jiang Yuxuan quickly thought she had found the reason and turned to Dai Xi, saying, "Master, it seems that these two zombies are too cunning. They have probably used magic to bewitch Bai Teng. What should we do? If they want to use Bai Teng to blackmail us, we will be even more helpless against these two poisonous zombies."
Chen Baiying said helplessly, "But I don't see you can do anything to them right now." What kind of celestial masters are these!
She now felt that these Taoist priests who called themselves Celestial Masters were probably just charlatans, and their bunch of fancy spells were probably just the legendary "divine attacks"! So her tone was no longer as respectful as before, and even carried a bit of sarcasm.
How could the Taoist priests not understand? However, even with so many Taoist priests working together and casting spells one after another, they could not subdue Luo Nian, and they even avoided Lou Qianzong. They simply had no way to refute Chen Baiying.
Everyone had a dark expression.
The night wind was chilly, and the atmosphere at the scene was even colder.
The driver, unable to bear the atmosphere any longer, finally spoke up: "Miss, how about we take the young master's body down from that crooked tree first?"
Recalling Chang Fenglin's words, Chen Baiying felt utterly disappointed and disgusted with the man. She couldn't understand how she could have been so blind to fall for such a scoundrel, and how she had argued with her brother several times because of him, which had somewhat affected their sibling relationship.
She didn't really know how to face the corpse. It wasn't that she was unwilling to even collect the body of the person she once loved, but she was afraid that if she disturbed the corpse, it would bring trouble upon her from Luo Nian. Now, she didn't think Chang Fenglin was worth anything she would do for him.
So she didn't say anything when she heard what the driver said.
Jiang Yuxuan stared at the corpse still swaying in the night wind and said, "Master, I think Luo Nian is openly challenging our Maoshan Sect by doing this."
Dai Xi sighed helplessly, "Chang Fenglin was the murderer who strangled her, and even after her death, he didn't let her go, giving her body to Zhang Pengju..."
Jiang Yuxuan blurted out, "So, her next target is very likely Zhang Pengju?!"
Dai Xi pondered and said, "She was turned into a corpse by Zhang Pengju. In a sense, Zhang Pengju gave her a new life, like her parents. He is the master of her corpse. It is not as easy for her to mess with Zhang Pengju as it is for her to mess with Chang Fenglin."
He was actually thinking, what would happen if the female corpse insisted on revenge?
If the Dao Chess method couldn't subdue Luo Nian at the Witch Corpse Sect, are there any other places or methods that could subdue this female corpse?
Seeing that neither Chen Baiying nor the Chen family driver intended to collect Chang Fenglin's body, Dai Xi ordered a few junior Taoist priests to collect it. They couldn't just leave it there to dry into a mummy, or it might be naturally transformed into a corpse by the corpse energy of the Witch Corpse Sect, causing more trouble for Maoshan.
Chang Fenglin was the primary culprit who killed the original owner of this body. He too died from being strangled, and Chu Nian felt a great deal of anger released from her chest.
Now, only Zhang Pengju is left.
She stared at the set of paper and pen in her hand, wondering if she could use this set of talismanic artifacts to deal with Zhang Pengju (this thing is great, it can be activated with corpse energy). Then her remaining task would be to live a carefree and happy life like Chen Baiying, and her future days would likely be much easier and more comfortable.
However, the constant staring at her by these Maoshan Taoist priests was really annoying her.
The door to the dressing room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Lou Qianzong walked in, sat down on the chair next to her, and put his long legs on the coffee table in front of him.
Chu Nian smiled faintly and said, "Sir, knocking before entering a lady's private room is the least a gentleman should do."
Lou Qianzong surprisingly nodded readily and said, "Okay, I'll remember to knock next time."
Chu Nian was a little wary of his easygoing nature: he didn't seem like an easy person to talk to!
"I've finished using my things, shouldn't I return them?" Lou Qianzong asked, reaching out his hand. His eyes were full of mockery, as if to say: I don't care if you want them back, are you not planning to return them?
Chu Nian: "What's the rush? It's not like I'm not going to pay you back. Can I borrow it for a little longer?"
Lou Qianzong: "It was agreed to be one night. You want to extend the rental period? Sure, bring something in exchange."
Chu Nian asked with a smile, "How was the reaction to those three English songs you sang today?"
Lou Qianzong raised an eyebrow, a wicked smile on his face, but remained silent.
Chu Nian: "I can give you a few more poems."
Lou Qianzong asked, "Who exactly are you?"
Chu Nian: "Are you very concerned?"
She sensed that Lou Qianzong was conflicted about this issue. She guessed that Lou Qianzong wanted more than just an answer to the question "Who is she?"; he wanted to use this question to uncover more underlying issues.
Perhaps, among the many questions that follow, there are the people or things that Lou Qianzong truly cares about.
Lou Qianzong chuckled and said, "You remind me of that friend who buried me in the Witch Corpse Sect."
Chu Nian asked in surprise, "Why? Do we have similarities?"
