After receiving news from Zhong Yan, Zhou Yi felt a complex mix of emotions, yet he didn't know how to describe it! The feeling was one of helplessness, and even a touch of disappointment.
Although the two siblings weren't very close usually, that didn't mean he was willing to watch his family get into trouble!
Besides, tanuki...
Their entire clan has been wiped out, so what could he possibly be dissatisfied with?
Zhong Yan felt a little sad and didn't want to see him like this. After a long silence, she finally said, "How about this, I'll try to summon your soul."
Since Luo Li said that they only took the virginity fragrance from their bodies, they shouldn't have disturbed their souls!
Of course, if they didn't even leave their souls behind, then they had truly brought this upon themselves, and even she couldn't help them. In fact, thinking about this filled her with bitterness, and she didn't know how to express it.
Zhou Yi paused for a moment, then his eyes brightened as if he had seen a glimmer of hope: "Sister-in-law, do you mean you can help me find her?"
Zhong Yan remained silent for a long while before saying, "It's not really like we found her, it's just her soul! You'd better not have too high hopes, otherwise I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."
Zhou Yi nodded repeatedly. It was already a blessing to see his family again, so what more could he expect? Besides, he knew that the dead could not be brought back to life.
That's right, judging from my boss's expression, it doesn't look too good!
He felt that if he continued, he might not receive any pleasantries.
Well, thinking about it now, it's actually a little embarrassing!
"Boss..."
"Shut up!" Jiang Xiaochen didn't want her to continue having anything to do with souls, especially now! Now, whatever Zhong Yan did would attract those ghostly things.
That's when he'll really be under a lot of pressure!
The thought that someone might try to take Zhong Yan away from him, and that they might actually do it, made him feel terrible! No, he couldn't swallow this grievance no matter what.
Zhong Yan glanced at him dismissively, a hint of threat in her voice: "What, you have a problem with me?!"
Jiang Xiaochen immediately backed down. He did have an opinion, but the problem was, he didn't dare to voice it at all! He even had to think twice before speaking, which was truly remarkable.
Besides, given the current situation, it's clear she's going to do it!
"I will summon your soul."
"Come on! If you were here, I guarantee those souls would vanish before they even had a chance to do anything." Luo Li said with a look of disdain, "Do you really think we're all fools?! Your Highness King Qin Guang, perhaps you've forgotten that your reputation in the Underworld isn't very good! Saying this now, aren't you just slapping yourself in the face?"
With just one sentence, he was rendered speechless.
Jiang Xiaochen pondered for a while, then suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have anything to be afraid of! Especially in the current situation, there was even less to worry about. If he couldn't do it, then Luo Li couldn't either!
If that's the case, why think so much?
"Zhong Yan, are you really going to do it yourself?"
"Um."
“But the Five-Colored Stone can’t hold that many souls! Even if you perform a ritual to help them pass on, they’ll have nowhere to go.” Jiang Xiaochen said with a worried expression, “We can’t keep exhausting ourselves! If that happens, I won’t agree.”
