Wu Yu buried the old Daoist priest. He found some precious books from the Daoist priest and taught himself Dao techniques. These techniques seemed to be created especially for him.

He used the techniques again and again.

When he failed, he couldn’t even eat for six to seven days and had to rely on leaves and tree branches to live.

When he succeeded, he would be able to eat a bowl of noodles. He swore that whatever the heavens took away from him, he would get it back himself.

He wanted to change his fate of short life and poverty. He wanted to be wealthy and powerful.

Wu Yu could not even remember how many formations he set up.

Those formations could provide him with endless power to sustain his life, but he never became rich.

Liu Sanniang felt the pain Wu Yu suffered and also obtained many Dao techniques and forbidden techniques.

Liu Sanniang opened her eyes to see Chu Yan next to her with a serious look. Seeing that she had woken up, Chu Yan smiled. “Are you hungry?”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Have you been here all this time?”

Chu Yan said in a low voice, “Yes.”

Naturally, he had to guard her. He wanted to be the first person she saw upon waking up.

Liu Sanniang felt warm in her heart. “Thank you.”

She realized that Chu Yan was holding her hand. She looked at him with a serious expression. “Chu Yan, do you like me?”

Chu Yan looked at Liu Sanniang with a smile on his face. “Yes, I do.”

Liu Sanniang felt sweet inside. She stopped avoiding him and looked into Chu Yan’s eyes. “If we’re on the same path, we can cultivate together.”

Chu Yan smiled. “Sanniang, there are no ifs. We have to be on the same path.”

Seeing how determined Chu Yan was, Liu Sanniang couldn’t help but blush. This life was different from her previous life. She never thought that Chu Yan would take the same path as her, and that they would be married and live together.

She was not that afraid anymore. In fact, she was looking forward to it.

Their life would definitely be very happy, wouldn’t it?

Chu Yan squeezed Liu Sanniang’s palm. “Are you feeling better?”

Liu Sanniang had already recovered from her internal injuries. She had a feeling that she could deal with Miao Yin now and stop her from doing evil.

Chu Yan let go of her hand. “You slept for three days. I’ll go and cook. Get up and wash up.”

Liu Sanniang was stunned. Three days…

For three days, Chu Yan had been guarding her by the bed. Liu Sanniang was filled with warmth. Thinking of the evil seeds that Wu Yu spread, Liu Sanniang immediately got up. She did not need to rest. She was already full of energy. Chu Yan went to cook, and she went to find a few jars.

After fusing with Miao Zhen’s worm-making technique, she wanted to make a worm to destroy the formations that Wu Yu had once set up. He had set up numerous formations, and many of them even involved powerful families. However, no matter how many evil seeds he had planted, Liu Sanniang would get rid of them one by one.

This world needed equilibrium. If one broke the equilibrium, evil would emerge.

Liu Sanniang placed the jars on the table and insects quickly crawled into the jars.

In order not to attract attention, Liu Sanniang only used ants this time.

The sky gradually darkened. Chu Yan asked Liu Sanniang to come over and eat.

Chu Yan’s cooking was surprisingly good. Liu Sanniang was starving and ate a lot. After dinner, she was about to wash the dishes when Chu Yan grabbed her hand. “Rest. I’ll do it.”

He could not bear to see this pair of fair hands washing dirty dishes.

Liu Sanniang went to the courtyard to play with General Black. The dog wagged his tail and enjoyed being stroked by Liu Sanniang as he ate the meat in his bowl.

A cold wind suddenly swept over, and Liu Sanniang paused. General Black had already stood up and pricked up his ears with a ferocious expression.

A thick black fog gradually appeared in front of Liu Sanniang.

His skinny appearance was very terrifying, but his stomach was swollen like a ball. He looked at Liu Sanniang with a pair of eyes that seemed to pop out of the eye sockets.

He said fiercely, “I’m going to kill you.”

Wu Yu died. He died extremely miserably. He was in extreme hunger, so he ate a lot of food, including trees, grass, and a lot of soil. His stomach bulged like a ball, but he was still very hungry. He looked like a person devoid of any vitality and was rotting away.

He was extremely unwilling to die. If not for Liu Sanniang, he would not have died. Given what he had done in this life, he would not be able to change his fate in the next life. In his next life, he would still live in misery. So, he wanted to take revenge.

Wu Yu was expecting Liu Sanniang to reveal a frightened look.

However, Liu Sanniang’s expression was calm as she chanted softly.

Wu Yu wanted to escape, but it was too late. He felt extreme pain and was enveloped by a golden light. He was furious and indignant. “No…”

Much to his shock, Liu Sanniang was actually a Buddha.

He was forcefully exorcized by Liu Sanniang, and to atone for the sins he had committed, he had to suffer in hell.

Wu Yu died, but the evil seeds he planted were still growing. After Wu Yu died, these evil seeds would start to grow rampantly. Liu Sanniang sighed. There was not much time left for her.

Most of March had passed.

In the second half of March, the weather gradually became hot, but a chill that no one could feel was gradually invading the world.

In the middle of the night, Liu Sanniang frowned in her sleep.

The sky gradually brightened. Liu Sanniang woke up and recalled the scene in her dream. She let out a long breath and got up to wash up. Chu Yan had already prepared breakfast and the two of them ate together.

Before Liu Sanniang could speak, Chu Yan said, “You can look for Minister Wei. He’s now the minister of the Xuanyi department and can help you.”

Liu Sanniang looked at Chu Yan and asked. “Does Miao Yin also stink?”

Chu Yan replied readily. “Yes, she reeks of decay.”

How could a person who spread evil in the world not stink?

Liu Sanniang imagined it and found it stinky too.

The two of them went to the Xuanyi mansion.

Xuanyi department was in charge of investigating strange and unnatural cases, so most of the time, it wasn’t busy. After the case of the Ministry of War was over, Wei Shilai was quite free. When the servant informed him of Liu Sanniang’s coming, he immediately went out to receive Liu Sanniang. When he saw her, Wei Shilai smiled and said, “Miss Liu, it’s been a while.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Sir, where is Miss Miao Yin now?”

Liu Sanniang did not beat around the bush and asked him directly.

Wei Shilai was stunned. He looked at Liu Sanniang and said hesitantly, “Miss Liu, Miss Miao Yin is protected by the Third Prince. She’s now performing in Yuqiong Pavilion. In just three days, she has already become famous in the capital.”
