Chapter 241: A Resentful Village

Tang Li knew that Qi Yihan was worried about her. She glanced at the group of people who were already resting and said to him in a low voice, “It’s fine as long as you can protect yourself. Don’t worry about me. I’ve said it before. In this world, be it demons or ghosts, no one can hurt me.”

With that, she touched his chest to comfort him.

Qi Yihan nodded and placed his hand on her head. “Don’t worry about me. I’m not as fragile as you think.”

Tang Li smiled. She knew that he was very powerful, but no matter how powerful he was, he could not beat a demon.

The two of them closed their eyes at the same time to rest.

The next day, everyone got up early and continued on their way.

After walking for another half a day, they finally walked out of the dense forest. The road ahead opened up a lot, and there were more types of trees.

Along the way, there were traces of human activity everywhere. It was obvious that the war ten years ago had turned this place into ruins.

Mrs. Guo said to Tang Li, “Before we started a large-scale cleanup of this place, this place has already developed into a large village. There were many people, and they were all criminals. They also captured many ordinary people to be their slaves and help them do things.”

At this moment, the group of people happened to reach a high ground. Mrs. Guo pointed at the dilapidated and collapsed buildings and said, “Those buildings in the middle were where outlaws live. When we surrounded them at that time, they were in the middle of doing a drug deal.”

At this point, she pointed to the west of the village. There was a huge platform built with stones there, and on the platform were several stone blocks.

“That is… the place where my parents were killed.”

Towards the end of her sentence, she subconsciously sounded a little choked up.

Her parents were lying in a pool of blood while her young daughter was lying beside her grandparents like a broken doll.

Every time she thought of that scene, she felt as if a knife was stabbing her heart.

Tang Li looked at the ruins that were filled with resentment. Even if she had not seen the scene from ten years ago, she could already imagine it. She retracted her gaze and said to them, “Everyone, wait here. I’m going to look for Yuan Yuan’s soul. If I can find it, we can go back. If I can’t, we have to expand our search area.”

Though Tang Li did not believe what the person from the Demon World said, she still planned to pay him a visit.

The group of people continued to walk into the village.

This place was filled with houses made of stone and wood. The wood had long rotted, and the houses made of stone were somewhat collapsed. The ones that were intact were covered in weeds and thorns. If one wanted to live, they had to clean it up.

They found a large stone house and started cleaning and repairing it.

Tang Li said to Mrs. Guo, “I’ll go to the west platform to take a look.”

Mrs. Guo turned pale. She didn’t want to go there at all because she was afraid that she would lose control of herself.

Qi Yihan read her mind and said, “You don’t have to come with us. I’ll go with Li.”

Tang Li nodded. “Yes, you stay here and take care of Yuan Yuan.”

Mrs. Guo thought for a moment and nodded.

Tang Li and Qi Yihan headed out.

The main road of this village was paved with stone slabs. Even after so many years, except for some grass and branches growing out of the cracks, it remained pretty smooth.

At this moment, the two of them walked to a place that looked like a canal. After so many years, the canal was already covered in a thick layer of mud and many weeds.

Tang Li glanced at it and frowned. “There should be a lot of blood in this canal. The resentment is very strong.”

Qi Yihan looked at the canal as well and said, “Many ordinary people were kidnapped here in the past. Some were from several nearby countries. They turned these people into slaves and killed them at will.”

Tang Li imagined that scenario and said, “I brought the worshiping items we bought before we entered the mountain. I’ll help these restless souls find peace.”

“Yeah.”

The two of them walked for another ten minutes before reaching the western platform.

It was noon and the sun was burning brightly, but the blood stains on the rock made people feel cold.

The stairs to the high platform were on both sides.

Tang Li and Qi Yihan went up from the right.

After going up, the blood stains on the stone slabs were more severe. Looking closer, the stone blocks that they saw from afar turned out to be stone troughs.

Some weeds grew in the stone trough because of the mud that had accumulated over the years.

At this moment, a crow was crowing on a tree branch not far away.

Tang Li looked around the platform and said to Qi Yihan, “No wonder Yuan Yuan’s soul left her body. This place was probably a slaughterhouse.”

The fact that a young girl wasn’t scared to death already proved that she was very strong.

Qi Yihan had heard one thing or two about this from Mr. Guo so he didn’t seem particularly surprised.

The two of them stood on the platform for a while. Tang Li decided to pacify the souls now. She took out the worshiping items she bought and took out the copper bell.

When the scented wax paper candle started to burn, the sound of the copper bell spread throughout the entire village.

In the distance, Mrs. Guo and the rest all stopped. Everyone looked at the high platform in the west and was instantly stunned by the scene.

Even though they were very far away, everyone could see clearly that Tang Li was standing in the middle of the burning wax paper candle, shaking the copper bell in her hand. At that moment, her entire body was enveloped by a faint layer of light, making people subconsciously hold their breaths in awe.

Soon, specks of light spread out her body, slowly rising into the sky.

One of the men murmured, “Is Mrs. Qi trying to pacify the souls?”

“Definitely,” another person replied.

The others felt the same way.

Everyone subconsciously put down the things in their hands and looked over, showing their respect to the souls.

On a tree not far from the village, a man was leaning against a tree trunk with a fan in his hand. His gaze was fixed on the high platform. After a while, the corners of his mouth curled up. He then murmured, “A mortal man is really not worthy of such a woman.”

With that, he raised his hand and looked at his palm. There was a totem floating there. In the middle of the totem was a ball of flame. The flame was black, as if it could destroy heaven and earth. He smiled meaningfully. “You’re indeed the person I’m looking for.”

With that, he turned invisible and left.

On the high platform.

It took Tang Li more than an hour to pacify all the restless souls.

All the bloostain had disappeared, and there was no longer any sinister aura in the village.
