e Lins', I specifically reminded my brother to dress formally. That Lin Yanhuan looked like a nobleman, who knows how intimidating his background might be My brother's casual wear might scare away the...This is the seventh floor!

I screamed in terror, my brother pinned me down, the wild wind whipped my cheeks until they hurt, I couldn't even cry! The tears were all blown back into my eyes!

When the old woman landed gracefully, I felt like that distance had been a year long.

My brother was trembling a bit, and he muttered in a low voice: “This is so unsafe! Jumping down without any safety measures, you almost scared me to death…”

Let's come up from behind it, grandma's song playing.

"Little Lady, I'll return to the Underworld first. It wouldn't be good for mortals to see this…" the old woman whispered.

"Ah... ah... good... take care of your wounds." I said, looking at its bleeding leg.

The old woman bowed her head to me, and then transformed into a cloud of white mist.

My uncle and his men were setting up an ambush outside. When my brother and I suddenly came out from behind this building, they rushed over to ask what was going on.

As soon as we retreated to the police cordon, we heard a rustle in the wind.

The foundation of the building was illuminated by a red glow, and a hazy red aura appeared on the ground, growing larger and brighter.

Gradually, the area within a radius of twenty meters was covered by this red glow.

"...What's going on here" A SWAT officer looked at the ground in front of his riot shield with confusion.

He wanted to step forward to take a look, but Uncle Cheng Su suddenly shouted, "Don't go forward! Retreat! Retreat! Come back!!"

The SWAT team moved with lightning speed to execute the order. They immediately grabbed their riot shields and retreated backward, while all patrol cars and officers pulled back to a safe distance.

Behind the cordon, a dozen or so people had gathered, mostly security guards, sweating profusely. They seemed frantic and clueless about what major incident had occurred to summon so many police officers.

"Little Qiao, step back a little, in case something unexpected happens." Uncle's brows furrowed tightly, as if he could sense the impending destruction.

I felt that too.

All the birds nesting around took fright and flew away with flapping wings. The ground of that building in the night seemed to be gathering like molten lava from a volcano.

A little gathering, the ground was getting redder and redder, I saw silver light breaking through the sky on the seventh floor rooftop—was Jiang Qiyun personally sealing the soul

That woman surnamed Tian, is she the other half of the ghost cultivator's soul refinement Since Si Tu Lin is so adept at separating souls and refining evil spirits, this woman must be a trusted subordinate since she runs this frozen seafood company.

The moment the silver light vanished, the ground erupted like a volcanic blast, a colossal inferno shooting into the sky—

The seven-story building was engulfed in flames, the intense heat forcing everyone to retreat in panic.

Jiang Qiyun is still on the rooftop!

I was about to call out when my brother suddenly covered my mouth and whispered, "Don't be stupid, don't you remember what happened at the last Hundred Ghosts Gathering He can summon the Yellow Springs Water to breach the barrier and pour in! This must be the boundless hellfire he called forth!"

Those remains of the corpses and flesh should be burned, leaving no ashes behind. That's the best way to dispose of them; there's nowhere else suitable.

But such a fire... even from this distance, my face feels so hot. Is he really okay

"Xiao Qiao, Xiao Qiao, what's wrong" My brother asked urgently.

My eyes and skin were scorched by the intense heat of the flames, paining excruciatingly. Tears streamed uncontrollably down my face, my eyeballs feeling gritty and raw.

"I... my eyes hurt so much..." Tears wouldn't stop flowing.

"Retreat with Xiao Qiao, retreat!" Uncle Cheng Su whispered, "This is the red lotus fire from hell, Xiao Qiao's constitution can't withstand it. Retreat with her, but don't go too far! It's very late and there are few people around at this time."

"Okay, okay..."

My brother hugged me, shielding me in front of him, and pulled me to the front of the isolation area to wait.

The sound of the fire truck arrived quickly, followed by a commotion.

"Don't cry, he'll be fine." My brother comforted me in a low voice.

I'm not crying, my eyes just can't take it. It feels better now that I'm a little farther away.

The flames over there were painting half the sky red. How come Jiang Qiyun hasn't come down yet I'm starting to feel a little worried.

My uncle walked over and called my older brother to a safe distance. He wanted to persuade the firefighters not to rush inside, so he asked my brother to give them a detailed account of the situation inside. There were some things my uncle wanted to keep hidden—like Jiang Qiyun's existence.

"Little girl, what on earth is going on here!" An old man was going crazy with worry, he must be the person in charge here, his head covered in sweat.

I shook my head, not wanting to say a word.

Let's just wait for Uncle Sù and the others to release an official statement. It's best for ordinary people to know as little as possible about this.

Two security guards brought over mineral water and handed it out to their colleagues who were maintaining order. One guard, across the isolation cordon, asked, "Little girl, would you like a bottle You don't look well, have some water."

He extended a bottle of mineral water across the distance of a step. I was flustered by his fiery gaze, and mumbled a thank you, reaching out to take it.

As my fingertips touched his, a jolt shot through me, my head buzzing. I was about to cry out reflexively when another security guard clamped a hand over my mouth.

A pungent smell immediately plunged me into darkness.

》》》

The immortals, Buddhas, and Daoist ancestors dreamed for a thousand years. Oceans turned into mulberry fields, mountains shifted, and stars moved.

In my dreams, I find myself enveloped in the darkness of memory.

As I reached out, the ground beneath me was wood, and so were the sides.

Coffin

And it was a very small coffin, I had to come in curled up sideways.

The coffin lid had three holes drilled in it, covered with a black cloth. I could see a hazy light and still breathe thin air.

Coffin, again a coffin.

I hate the wooden base of a coffin, I fear this enclosed space.

Even the closet in my room is made of plastic panels that don't close properly.

Why am I lying in a coffin again Where's my brother Where's Uncle Cheng Su

And...what about Jiang Qiyun

I'm gone, my brother will find out, right Jiang Qiyun should come looking for me after he's finished his business, too, right

Why am I not by your side

With a jolt, the coffin lurched violently, sending a shiver down my spine. My arms, bound behind me, couldn't protect my abdomen in time.

I'm so afraid... that kind of despairing fear starts to spread from the depths of my memory.

Jiang Qiyun said that I scratched my fingers to the point of bleeding that night. At the time, the pain and fear he inflicted on me consumed all my thoughts, making me forget how much it hurts to have ten fingers connected.

A man's curses erupted from outside: "Damn it, slow down! Pay attention when you drive! I'm about to be thrown out of the car! It doesn't matter if you throw me out, but if you shake loose the talisman on this coffin, we're both dead, do you understand!"

Talismans Are they used for boundaries

They are taking me somewhere... What can I do I'm barely able to protect myself, how can I protect two babies

I don't know how long the car had been driving, but I felt myself being lifted out and then started to be carried by two people.

At the beginning, it was flat. Later, the road became more and more bumpy, and I felt colder and colder as I walked.

I heard the sound of water, and I was put onto a boat to continue moving forward.

No matter where they take me, as soon as the coffin lid is opened, I will use my incantation to shatter the barrier and desperately call out for Jiang Qiyun.

Another long mountain road, gradually, I heard a few barks of dogs, and also the men carrying the coffin speaking in heavy accents.

My mind recalled a place —from the Underworld are usually... well... rather ugly, and quite fierce-looking.But there are also many kindhearted ones, like the old crone and Birchy from before. They may look strange, ugly, and f...
