This long night was just a good dream for the other demons in the villa.
But they did not know that many things had completely changed after they woke up.
The most obvious change was that the ground of the nameless tomb in the maple forest in the backyard of Jinping Villa had sunk, and there was actually a big hole underground.
But before the female demons had time to look, they were dispersed by the guards led by Han Fu and sealed off the backyard.
But even though they could disperse the female demons, they could not get rid of their curiosity. For a while, there were many different opinions. Some said that it was Gongzi Ling's practice room, some said that it was a treasure vault, where the treasures of Jinping Villa were hidden. The closest theory was that it was the tomb of the nameless tomb owner, who had come back to life last night and dug a hole to climb up.
The female demons did not know Dōjin's appearance, nor did they really care about the truth. But they were happy to use it as a fresh topic of conversation, so they kept chattering and making noise.
Just like the autumn rain, it lasted from night to dawn, and from dawn to dusk. After a day and a night, it still did not stop.

The noise and laughter outside made the library even more quiet under the night rain.
Rui Youshu was forgotten in this deserted library, quietly sleeping.
Although she was suspicious before, the investigation was interrupted because she was poisoned. But last night, Gu Xuanzheng retreated in defeat, and Zhao Ya died. Everything was settled.
Although there were some suspicious points about Rui Youshu, it seemed that it was not worth investigating further.
Seemed?
A gust of autumn wind blew through the library, opening and closing the door of the library. But soon, it was quiet again.
But in the dark and quiet library, there was a lamp, a shadow, and a series of dull footsteps.
"Squeak — — Squeak — —" The old floorboards let out a mournful sound under the footsteps, coming closer and closer to Rui Youshu. Finally, the footsteps stopped in front of Fu Youshu.
The faintly discernible light elongated the pitch-black shadows and cast them on the dim yellow walls. As the flames swayed and swayed, it looked like a nightmare was dancing.
But when the shadow spoke, it was a lazy female voice.
"I know you are fine. If you don't get up, I will drip the lamp oil on you!"
As she spoke, the shadow really raised the lamp and was about to drip the hot lamp oil on Rui Youshu's face.
Rui Youshu was still asleep and did not move.
"No reaction? Boring … Looks like you really used that secret technique. " The newcomer clicked his tongue and took back the oil lamp. He gently placed it beside the table and seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be talking to Fu Youshu. "As a Death Scout lurking outside, once your identity is exposed and you fall into the enemy's hands, you will inevitably be tortured. At this time, if you use that secret technique, you can make your body enter a state of suspended animation. No matter how many needles and axes are used, you won't feel any pain, so as to ensure that the information will not be leaked. At the same time, he would give himself a mission as a 'seed' to awaken him from his state of suspended animation. Once there was a chance to complete the mission, even if he lost consciousness, even if his bones and tendons were broken, his instincts would force him to break free from the shackles of pain and complete the mission. This secret art is called — Ultimate Killing Thought! "
Bi Youshu continued to sleep, and the visitor didn't seem to mind. He took out a letter from his pocket and continued to speak.
"The mission given to yourself might be to seize something, destroy some evidence, or even kill someone. I'm guessing that's your mission!"
As he spoke, he unfolded the letter. On the top of the letter, it was written — "Presenting to my Emperor, the Northern Dragon."
The moment the letter was unfolded!
In an instant, undercurrents surged, and in an instant, murderous intent erupted. It was like a sudden gust of wind and rain, and the flame of the oil lamp was suddenly extinguished by the sudden gust of wind. In an instant, everything was dark!
In the next instant, the lamp was lit up again, and everything was calm.
But the sleeping Bi Youshu was already standing in front of the lamp, his black hair dancing in the wind, and his five fingers had already turned into the claws of an insect, reaching out for the letter. It was only an inch away from the letter.
But it was like the distance between heaven and earth!
Because the visitor on the rainy night was holding the letter in one hand, while the other hand was firmly grasping Bi Youshu's wrist. He continued to speak in a light tone, "And only the elites of the Northern Dragon's Six Armies can use this Ultimate Killing Thought Technique. So, do you want to get to know me again?"
"Sure!" At this moment, Bi Youshu's temperament had completely changed, sweeping away the slovenly bookish aura from before. Her waist and abdomen were tightened, and her spine was ramrod straight, making her appear courageous and capable. Her sharp eyes were filled with cold killing intent as she stared at the visitor. She sneered, and then said word by word, shocking everyone present, "Northern Region Demon World's Six Armies, 'Mystic Yin Lieutenant' Shadow Squad Leader Fu Ying, greets the previous leader of the Mystic Yin Lieutenant — — Commander Qin Feng!"
The flame of the lamp flickered violently under the murderous intent, illuminating the visitor's face. His brows and eyes were languid, like a poem or a painting. It was Qin Feng!
- =
Within the Demon Kingdom of the Northern Region, there were six armies under the Three Venerables of the Demon World, each named after the Six Key Points of the Army: Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain, Yin and Thunder. The Mystic Yin Lieutenant was one of them, "Unfathomable as Yin". It was a hidden army made up of scouts, spies, and death soldiers, specializing in spying, undercover operations, and ambushes. The identities of the elite members were mostly kept secret, so much so that they didn't even know each other.
At this moment, Bi Youshu announced her identity. She was actually a member of the Mystic Yin Lieutenant, and from her words, not only was Qin Feng also a member of the Mystic Yin Lieutenant, he had even been the leader of the Mystic Yin Lieutenant before!
Qin Feng did not deny being identified as the leader of the Mystic Yin Lieutenant. Instead, his beautiful eyes widened as he pretended to be surprised, "Aiyaya, I'm already the 'previous leader'. Could it be that I've already been removed from my position?"
Bi Youshu, no, Fu Ying's eyes flashed coldly as she gritted her teeth, "What do you think? You volunteered to go undercover in Jinping Mountain Villa, but never returned. If not for your betrayal, how could His Excellency Hu Bugui have died in Sichuan due to insufficient intelligence? "
"How can you blame me for that? Forget it, just take it as me being blamed. I'm really sorry, but the Yao World has also removed me from my position, so we're even. Then let's part ways and not disturb each other in the future, "Qin Feng laughed and said lightly.
The insincere apology was no different from adding oil to the fire. Fu Ying became even angrier as she said in a low voice, "What a good 'even'! It's extremely difficult for a wood demon to cultivate and take form. If not for the Yao World pouring all of his resources into you, nurturing you with all his heart and soul, you would have been nothing more than weeds on the side of the road that others could trample on. In the end, all you got in return was your betrayal? Is this what you mean by even? "
"Is that what they told you?" Qin Feng's eyes narrowed as the corners of his lips curled upwards, forming a sharp smile, "Then did they tell you that enlightening me, nurturing me, aiding me in my cultivation, everything they did was just to push forward the 'Seeds of Calamity' plan. And I, from the beginning to the end, am just a vessel to nurture the wood elemental energy. Once the time is ripe, my wood elemental energy will be taken out and I will return to my original form!"
Fu Ying was slightly stunned. With her level, she still did not know the meaning of the Seeds of Calamity plan. However, her eyes were still resolute as she said without backing down, "So what? 'Shed my blood in life to expand my race, burn my soul in death to shine the light of my race.' This is the oath that you and I recited when we joined the army! In order for the demon race to become the master of this vast world, for hundreds of years, tens of thousands of soldiers sacrificed their lives to pave the way for the glory of the demon race! And you, everything you have was originally bestowed by the Yao World. If not for the Yao World, you wouldn't even have the qualifications to transform into a demon, let alone condensing wood elemental energy. Right now, you are just taking back what was granted to you. You have no right to refuse! "
"Haha. You are right. I am just a common plant in the backyard of the Pantheon of Demons. Bei Longtian nourished me with his demonic energy in person in order to awaken my intelligence. Everything I have was given to me by the demon world in the first place. But did the demon world ever ask for my opinion when he enlightened me? Did the Yao World ever ask for my opinion when they wanted to take everything back? " Qin Feng laughed. The shadow of the lantern flickered under her laughter, illuminating her face. She laughed so hard that she bent over and flung Fu Ying's arm away, as if she had no time to care about Fu Ying.
Fu Ying's arm was freed from the shackles. She was about to fight back, but she was stopped the moment she raised her hand. "Pa!" A drop of cold sweat slid down from her chin.
The lantern was as small as a bean. Shadows were flickering in the darkness. Although Qin Feng was holding her belly and laughing, countless thorns were growing in the darkness behind her. At this moment, they had already crawled up Fu Ying's ankles, wrists, and neck like haunting hands. The sharp thorns were only millimeters away from the tender skin of her neck. As long as they tightened their grip, she would be strangled to death.
Qin Feng had laughed enough and when she slowly straightened her back, there was no longer a smile on her face. The light shone from top to bottom, the shadow of her lips and nose seemed to cut her beautiful face into several pieces. The closer her face was to Fu Ying, the more Fu Ying couldn't see it clearly.
"Although it was Bei Longtian who enlightened me, from the moment I gained consciousness, I was the only one in control of my life. If my life and death were controlled by the demonic world, then what difference would I be from weeds that could be trampled by others?" Qin Feng stretched out a slender finger and tapped on one of the thorns on Fu Ying's neck. She lightly pressed down. The thorns pierced through Qin Feng's finger and also Fu Ying's skin. The bright red that seeped out seemed to reflect in Qin Feng's eyes, causing them to be dyed with a layer of beauty.
Qin Feng used these eyes to look at Fu Ying. Word by word, she said in a gentle voice, "You must know that when plants grow thorns, they will pierce a hole through the one they trample!"
Fu Ying shivered. She did not fear death, but she did not want to die easily either.
Fu Ying had joined the Mystic Yin Squad relatively late, so she had never seen Qin Feng before. However, she knew of her achievements. More than twenty years ago, two young female generals had appeared in the six armies at the same time.
One of them was Jialan Bingrong. At that time, she was still the leader of the Calamity Fire Army, but she was already showing off her abilities. Although the Calamity Fire Army was the largest of the six armies, to a female army leader like Jialan Bingrong, it was still too small for her.
The other one was the Mystic Yin Squad's General Qin Feng. However, the Mystic Yin Squad advocated secrecy, so Qin Feng's reputation was not as famous as Jialan Bing Rong's. The outside world only knew that the Mystic Yin Squad's General Qin Feng was a young woman who was personally nurtured by Bei Longtian. She was highly trusted, which was why he entrusted the Mystic Yin Squad's intelligence network to her.
Not long after, Young Master Peacock appeared out of nowhere and shocked the world. He rejected Bei Longtian's recruitment and built his own Jinping Mountain Village, becoming the Demon King of Shu.
At that time, Young Master Ling's intentions were unclear. Bei Longtian was rather fearful of him. The Mystic Yin Squad's General Qin Feng took the initiative and finally persuaded Bei Longtian to allow her to leave the Yao World of the Northern Region and sneak into Jinping Mountain Village to investigate Young Master Ling's situation.
However, once she left, she never returned. In the beginning, there were still messages being sent, but after a long time, the messages became fewer and fewer. In the end, there was no news at all. On the contrary, Qin Feng's name became more and more famous as one of the three beauties of Feng Ya Song.
The betrayal of the Mystic Yin Squad's General Qin Feng was equivalent to tearing a hole in the Yao World's intelligence network. Later on, Hu Bugui died in Shu due to insufficient intelligence. This could also be considered the aftermath of her betrayal.
And all this was only known after Fu Ying joined the Mystic Yin Squad. It was also after Hu Bugui's death that she requested to take over Qin Feng's job and go undercover in Jinping Mountain Village.
However, what she wanted to take over was not only Qin Feng's job, but also Qin Feng's position!
Although Qin Feng had betrayed the Yao World, the position of the Mystic Yin Squad's General Qin Feng had always been empty. Fu Ying boasted that whether it was her cultivation or loyalty to the Yao World, she was not inferior to the current generals of the "Wind", "Forest", "Fire" and "Mountain" armies.
If she could complete the task that Qin Feng had not completed, or even personally take the head of the traitor, who else could become the new General Qin Feng of the Mystic Yin Squad but her?
But now, she wavered. Even after observing Qin Feng closely for so many years, she still underestimated Qin Feng's cultivation. Twenty years ago, Qin Feng had the strength to become a General Qin Feng. Then what level had the Qin Feng of today reached?
She did not know, but she knew that she had no chance at all. Thus, Fu Ying could only say coldly, "What exactly do you want!"
She was clear that Qin Feng did not want to kill her, otherwise he would not have said so much to her. However, she could not figure out Qin Feng's intentions.
Qin Feng retracted his finger, placed it by his lips and sucked on it. The killing intent from before seemed to have dissipated in an instant. Then, he straightened his white finger and said, "The first rule of a secret agent is to never be swayed by emotions. My identity as the Mystic Yin Squad's General Qin Feng is naturally known by the current Venerable Hu Li. But not long ago, Young Master and I met Hu Li face to face at the Lingyun Buddha. Did Hu Li say anything at that time?"
Fu Ying knew that not long ago, the Heavenly Tomes had yet to be opened, but the phenomenon had already appeared. Hu Li had once gone to the Lingyun Mountain Buddha where the phenomenon of the Heavenly Tomes had appeared. During that time, he had met Qin Feng, but the two demons seemed to have never seen each other before.
Qin Feng continued. "Because he knew that the matter had already happened and could not be changed. Instead of shedding all pretense of cordiality, he might as well leave some face. It might be useful in the future."
Fu Ying sneered and said, "Heh, what's the use of leaving a traitor's face?"
"Isn't it useful now?" Qin Feng waved the letter in the air as if to demonstrate his power. Then, he turned around and pointed it at the oil lamp, actually burning the letter.
"What are you doing!" Fu Ying reprimanded. She was even more puzzled. That day when she wrote the letter and sent the message out, it was accidentally discovered by Gongzi Ling (actually, Ying Feiyang in disguise) and the others. Qin Feng intercepted the pigeon. At that time, she only knew that she was about to be exposed. However, when Qin Feng returned, he only brought back the pigeon and claimed that there was no letter on the pigeon.
Now it seemed that Qin Feng had hidden the letter and did not make it public. Fu Ying did not know the purpose of her actions and could only guess, "Are you trying to hide it for me?"
"You don't have that much influence." This time, it was Qin Feng's turn to sneer. He raised his second finger and said, "The second rule of a spy is to know what kind of information should be passed on and what kind of information should not be passed on. Heh, look at your eyes. Don't be unconvinced. Let me ask you, who is the mastermind behind the chaos in the villa? "
"Isn't it Gu Xuanren?" Fu Ying was about to blurt out, but when she saw the look in Qin Feng's eyes, she stopped herself. After a moment of silence, she said, "It's the Six Paths Evil Destruction!"
Gu Xuanren did not appear earlier or later. He just had to appear at the juncture of the Battle of the Heavenly Book. This timing was definitely not a coincidence. He had been silent for many years. The Path Master of the Beast Path, Wanshou Chun, who had dominated the Southern Border with him and knew him very well, was one of the possible candidates. And from the results, Gu Xuanren's appearance had caused Gongzi Ling to be absent from the Battle of the Heavenly Book. This had indeed removed the biggest variable for the Six Paths Evil Destruction.
Connecting all the signs, the Six Paths Evil Destruction was the biggest winner and the real mastermind behind the scenes.
"That's right." Qin Feng nodded, and then he changed the topic. "However, the Hungry Ghost Realm of the six realms is actually under the Demon World's control now. How could the Dao Master of the Hungry Ghost Realm who's called Yin Xuwei and whose true identity is even more mysterious than ours not know about this? If he knows, Bei Longtian will know, too. But why didn't Bei Longtian give you any orders and ask you to cooperate with him from the inside? "
Before Fu Ying answered, Qin Feng had already continued, "Because Bei Longtian doesn't want to get too involved. For Bei Longtian, as long as Gu Xuanren keeps the Young Master occupied and prevents him from attending to the Battle of the Heavenly Book, it will be enough. He didn't think that Gu Xuanke alone would be able to destroy the entire manor. Since he did not expect the Six Paths Evil Destruction and Gu Xuanren's plan to eliminate the Young Master, the Young Master will certainly seek revenge after this. What Bei Longtian needed to do was to prevent the Pantheon of Demons in the Northern Territory from being angered by the Young Master. Therefore, it is not enough to put aside this incident. If the letter you sent to the Demon World in the Northern Territory falls into the Young Master's hands, won't it give the Young Master a reason to lose his temper? "
It was true that Fu Ying did not think that far ahead. Hearing what Qin Feng said, she felt that a handful of cold water had been poured on her head. She was scared. Although the Pantheon of Demons had many soldiers, they were not willing to become sworn enemies with Young Master Ling, who was also a demon. Otherwise, there would be a storm of blood. But she snorted and said stubbornly, "Then, who did you hide the letter for? For Bei Longtian or Young Master Ling? Hehe. No matter who it is, it will be a double betrayal. "
"Ha. Of course, it is for myself!" Qin Feng turned around and stretched. "My life right now is quite comfortable. I am very satisfied. Therefore, the last thing I want is for Bei Longtian and the Young Master to fight each other. If they really fight, it will be hard for me to live a comfortable life."
Qin Feng stretched and walked away. As she walked away, the thorns on Fu Ying's body fell off automatically.
Qin Feng's unguarded back was exposed in front of Fu Ying, but she did not try to attack him again. Instead, she said, "What do you mean? Are you not going to punish me?"
Qin Feng stopped and raised his third finger. "The third rule of a spy is that you should retreat when the time is right. Your identity has already been exposed. There is no meaning in staying. Leave by yourself before the rain stops. "
Fu Ying did not move. "If I leave, there will be other demons coming. As long as Young Master Ling is in Shu, Bei Longwu Emperor will not neglect Jinping Manor."
"I know. That is why killing you is useless and I do not intend to kill you. However, you have underestimated a demon." Qin Feng tilted his head and looked at Fu Ying.
"Who is it? You?" Fu Ying sneered. Qin Feng, who was born as a Mysterious Yin Lieutenant, was indeed the biggest obstacle for her to sneak into Jinping Manor. The successor would have to pass through Qin Feng first.
"It's Young Master! Do you think Young Master doesn't know anything? Actually, he knows better than anyone else about your background, my background, and even Sister Ya's real background. He might have already guessed seventy to eighty percent of it … "When Zhao Ya was mentioned, Qin Feng's eyes flashed with a trace of sadness. Her consciousness had fused with Zhao Ya before and she could barely grasp some of Zhao Ya's thoughts.
She knew that Zhao Ya had suddenly sacrificed herself to save Xie Lingyan. It was not out of repentance.
At that time, Zhao Ya had sped up the absorption of Young Master Ling's memories in order to complete the Nether Seal of the Peacock. However, it was as if she had been struck by lightning and forgot to circulate her zhenqi. Under the backlash of the zhenqi, she could only say, "So you had already guessed it …"
Combined with the conversation she had with Young Master Ling before her death, it could be inferred that Zhao Ya had unintentionally seen Young Master Ling's memories when she was assembling the Nether Seal of the Peacock. Perhaps Young Master Ling had already guessed Zhao Ya's real identity long ago.
Zhao Ya had not hesitated to wipe the memories of all the demons in the manor to hide her past from Young Master Ling. It turned out that Young Master Ling had already guessed some clues and had never held a grudge or looked down on her because of it.
The thing that Zhao Ya feared the most would not have happened from the beginning. It was also because of this that Zhao Ya could finally die with satisfaction and heal the damage she had caused …
Of course, this was only Qin Feng's guess. Perhaps only Zhao Ya and Young Master Ling knew the real reason.
Qin Feng shook his head, dispelling the sorrow in his eyes. He continued, "It's just that Young Master Ling is too proud. His past identity is not even worth mentioning in his eyes. What he cares about is you and me, and not the 'you and me of the past'. If you are willing to give up your identity as a Lieutenant of the Dark Moon and only be the manager of the library of Jinping Manor, there will always be a place for you in Jinping Manor. Are you willing? "
A flash of hesitation flashed through Fu Ying's eyes, but it was only for a short moment. She then said coldly, "Not everyone can be like you, taking betrayal as a matter of course!"
"Is that so … Then forget it. Young Master has worked hard this time and will need to go into seclusion to recover soon. You should leave before he goes into seclusion. Otherwise, although Young Master can tolerate you, I don't have the patience to help you every time …" As Qin Feng spoke, he opened his umbrella and pushed open the door, not turning back again. The wind and rain that entered the library carried her final words.
"Oh, that's right. When you return, remember to say goodbye to Northern Dragon God for me. Tell him that although the wind and rain are blowing outside, Qin Feng … doesn't want to go back …"
- = - =
At the same time, in a place where the rain couldn't reach, there was another farewell.
That was the underground ice spring river. It was unknown how many years the dark water had sent away. Now, it was time to send away the souls of the dead.
On the water, there was a raft made of flowers and trees. Xie Anping's corpse lay quietly on it.
On the shore, there was Gongzi Ling and the heavily injured Xie Lingyan who had just woken up.
Gongzi Ling knelt on one knee in front of the raft, saying his final words to Xie Anping.
"The ice coffin that was originally prepared for you was given to Zhao Ya by this young master because she liked that ice coffin very much and liked to sleep in the place you used to sleep. You won't blame this young master, right?"
"Ha, you'll still blame me. Actually, long before the day we parted, we had already made a promise. You said that kindness is like water, it benefits all living things but doesn't compete. After you die, I don't need to bury you. I just need to put you on the flower raft and let you drift with the water. Wherever you go, you will be there. If you sink in the water, you will be born in nature and belong to nature."
"This young master was foolish and ignored your last wishes. I forced you into a dream that you didn't want to wake up from. This dream lasted until today."
"This young master has wasted too much of your time. Fortunately, this foolish long dream has finally woken up. It's time … to say goodbye!"
When Gongzi Ling finished speaking, he pushed the raft away and let it go along the underground river. He got up and turned his back to it, no longer looking back.
Meanwhile, Xie Lingyan knelt on the ground and paid her respects to her nephew. Although she had been revived by Zhao Ya's Cocoon Breaking Butterfly Transformation, her body was still extremely weak. However, knowing that Gongzi Ling was going to bid farewell to her aunt whom she had never met, she still ignored Chu Song's advice and forced herself to get up from the bed.
But now, she couldn't stand up. Even though the blood relative who looked like her was floating on the boat, turning into a black dot, Xie Lingyan still didn't know how to face her.
She already had the will to die, but when death approached, she was unwilling. Now that she had been revived, she felt that it wouldn't have been so bad if she had died at that time.
She could escape death, but she had to face it when she was alive. She hated herself for being so conflicted, but she couldn't do anything about it.
Gongzi Ling had the courage to face reality, but she didn't, at least not yet.
So when Gongzi Ling reached out to help her, she avoided him and stood up by holding the wall. She said, "Thank you, young master, for giving me the chance to see my aunt. Since she has been sent away, I should also say goodbye."
"Where do you plan to go?"
Xie Lingyan bowed. "I originally planned to return to the sect. If I hadn't been captured by Gu Xuanzheng, I would have arrived long ago. I've been delayed for a long time, so I should return to Ling Xiao Sword School to report that I'm safe. "
"The wind and rain are heavy outside, and your injuries haven't healed yet. You should leave in a few days."
"It's fine." Xie Lingyan shook her head and bowed to leave. "Anyway, staying here will only make my recovery … slower …"
- = -
Ying Feiyang climbed out of the tomb last night and fell asleep in exhaustion. When she opened her eyes again, it was already night time.
Even when he moved his body, he was still in bone-piercing pain. However, Ying Feiyang did not want to lie down for too long. Hearing the chattering outside, he stretched his body and wanted to go out.
She saw Chu Song standing at the door of the infirmary, looking outside. She followed Chu Song's line of sight and looked out together.
She saw Han Fu busily chasing away some little demonesses like they were chicks. He said, "What's there to see? Isn't it just the rain that made the foundation unstable and caused a hole? If you keep looking, be careful of falling! "
The leading demoness was Miao Er. She waved her fists and said in a childish voice, "Steward Han lied to us. We all heard that there were zombies coming out of the cave. Steward Han, let us help you subdue the zombies."
"Nonsense. How could there be zombies causing trouble in Jinping Villa? Go back to your rooms. You didn't even bring an umbrella. Look at you, your ears are all wet!" As Han Fu spoke, he took out a silk handkerchief and wiped Miao Er's fluffy cat ears clean. Then, he stuffed the umbrella into her hands. "Go, be careful not to catch a cold."
Miao Er giggled. "Steward, you're so nice. Why do I remember that the previous steward was very fierce and strict?"
Han Fu scolded with a smile. "What previous steward? Looks like I've treated you too well. If you don't leave now, I'll hang you up and feed you to the zombies! "As he spoke, he made threatening gestures.
Miao Er and the other demonesses giggled and dispersed.
"What's wrong with them?" Ying Feiyang couldn't help but ask when he saw this.
Only then did Chu Song realize that Ying Feiyang was beside him. She immediately said, "Brother Ying, why are you up? You haven't recovered yet and you still need to rest!"
Ying Feiyang was afraid that she would nag and quickly changed the topic. "Have Miao Er and Han Fu recovered? But why do I feel that they're … not normal? "As Ying Feiyang spoke, he pointed at his head and gestured.
Chu Song nodded. "Miao Er is fine. She woke up not long after she came out. She's still in a daze and doesn't realize that she was possessed by Gu Xuanzhi. As for Sister Han Fu … she forgot the fact that she was married. In her mind, she has always been in the villa and is the steward of the villa — Sister Zhao Ya's position. As for Miao Er and the other demonesses, their memories are normal. It's just that they've forgotten Sister Ya's existence. Their past with Sister Ya is all blamed on Sister Han Fu. "
"You're saying that in their memories, Han Fu replaced Zhao Ya? This is also Zhao Ya's doing? "Ying Feiyang asked doubtfully.
"It should be … Perhaps this is Sister Ya's compensation to Sister Han Fu. She deceived and fooled Sister Han Fu for half of her life, so she used the other half of her life to compensate Sister Han Fu. As for herself, she'll be forever forgotten by the sisters in the villa. "Chu Song sighed softly and added solemnly," But I will never forget. "
Ying Feiyang and Zhao Ya were not friends, but after a night of battle of wits and courage with her and witnessing her end, he could not help but sigh. Even in death, she had arranged her funeral clearly. Ying Feiyang knew that he would never forget this dreamlike demoness.
At that moment, another demoness whispered something into Han Fu's ear. Han Fu's expression changed. Then, she lifted her dress and ran toward Chu Song.
Seeing this, Chu Song asked, "What's wrong, Sister Han Fu?"
Han Fu's expression was solemn as she said, "When we were checking the villa's assets, one of the Peacock Tokens was stolen!"
"It's … it's stolen again?" Ying Feiyang could not control his mouth. He felt that every time something happened with Jinping Villa, it was accompanied by the theft of the Peacock Token. But soon, he realized that something was amiss and asked, "When did it happen?"
Han Fu rolled her eyes at Ying Feiyang, annoyed at his blabbermouth. Then, she held her forehead and said, "I don't know either. I don't know why, but I feel that I can't remember the recent events clearly. So, I want to ask for your help, Chu Song. Help me check if there are any other items missing from the villa."
"Check for lost items? That's not a problem, but … "Chu Song hesitated.
Seeing this, Han Fu hurriedly asked, "But what?"
Chu Song shook his head and said, "I seem to have lost some of my personal jewelry a few days ago, but if the Peacock Insignia was really stolen, then the thief who stole it must not be an ordinary one. He shouldn't be thinking about my trinkets. I should have left them somewhere."
"Oh no!" At that moment, Ying Feiyang exclaimed as if he was facing a great enemy. Then, he grabbed Chu Song's hand and dragged her out, ignoring the wind and rain. As he dragged her, he said, "Chu Song, come with me quickly. If you don't hurry, it'll be too late!"
Chu Song did not understand. She staggered to keep up with Ying Feiyang and asked, "Brother Ying, don't rush. Where are you taking me?"
Ying Feiyang's eyes were anxious. It was as if he wanted to see through the dark clouds and look straight at his target.
"Quick, let's go to Mount Qingcheng!"
