A murder occurred and there was only one person at the crime scene. Even though the two were husband and wife, Zhao Dongniang was still listed as a suspect and escorted to the court for interrogation.

This process is unremarkable. Zhao Dongniang fully utilized her ability to throw a tantrum, but this ability was obviously only useful to those who indulged her. When faced with a place where judgments were made based on law and justice, this ability was useless and even caused her a lot of suffering.

Well-deserved suffering.

She refused to plead guilty - of course, she was not the guilty party - but if she had calmed down, recognized the situation, and was willing to tell the truth instead of choosing to resist with violence, or trying to escape with her legs, or shutting her mouth full of dirty words, then at least she would have fewer bruises on her face now.

Of course, such an interrogation would not produce any results. Just when the situation reached a stalemate, the coroner's assistant suddenly rushed in.

"Fake, fake, fake corpse!"

This statement startled everyone in the courtroom. They all turned their eyes to the assistant with expressions of surprise and doubt on their faces, and soon the hall was filled with the sound of discussions.

Among them, Zhao Dongniang and Chen Juan were the most excited, but obviously the reasons for their excitement were different.

"What did you say? Who pretended to be dead?"

Chen Juan grabbed the assistant, her face full of surprise, but before the assistant could answer her question, Zhao Dongniang rushed over from the ground, pulled the other person over, and shouted as if to blame him:

"That damn guy! Is it him? Is he not dead?!"

After saying that, Zhao Dongniang turned around and shouted:

"I told you, I told you it wasn't me! I didn't do anything wrong! You beasts! Beasts!"

After saying this, Zhao Dongniang was still not satisfied and continued to curse the people around her. Everyone became the object of her hatred. Even those who had originally felt sorry for her injury, now frowned and shook their heads secretly.

However, both Ying and Lingyue were not at the scene and did not know the specific details. They only knew that in the end, Brother Zhu was released after it was confirmed that nothing happened. Almost everyone believed that this was because Brother Zhu always did good deeds and accumulated virtue, so his good deeds were rewarded and he was able to come back to life.

But their attitude towards Zhao Dongniang, who was also released, was completely different.

First, Zhao Dongniang was usually very cruel and ruthless. Even when facing Chen Juan, the owner of the mansion, she, as a resident, often spoke coldly to her, not to mention outsiders. Now that she had suffered a great disaster, others might not even have time to be happy.

On the other hand, since everyone believed that Brother Zhu was resurrected from the dead, they naturally believed that Zhao Dongniang killed Brother Zhu. Although there was no evidence and even Brother Zhu did not say anything, this idea was still rooted in everyone's hearts.

Under the influence of these two factors, people naturally became more dissatisfied with Zhao Dongniang, but for Zhao Dongniang, things seemed to have not changed.

People who were timid before would not dare to provoke her are now even more afraid of her and will avoid her when they see her from a distance.

And those who are brave enough to go against her will not really attack her. In the end, it will just lead to more gossip, and at most she will curse a few more words to the people around her, and then that's it.

In the end, the ones who really suffered were the people around her, namely Chen Juan and Brother Zhu.

On the second day after Zhu Ge's resurrection, Gui Yan locked the door and practiced in the house. Ying sat beside him, trying out the props in her backpack while observing Zhu Ge's situation outside the house.

Gu Ling also sat next to Ying, staring at Ying with her big eyes - actually she was practicing using spiritual consciousness to communicate, but unfortunately for her, this was not an easy thing to do.

"Guiyan's talent has become even higher."

Ling Yue's voice suddenly rang in Ying's mind, making her think that Gu Ling's experiment was successful.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Ying asked subconsciously, and accidentally took out the mass parameter meter.

At the beginning, she would use this item at specific times, but now she rarely uses it. After all, she has been adventuring in the continent of Teyvat for a long time and she doesn't lack many things, so the usefulness of this item is not as great as it was at the beginning.

I just don't know if the mass parameter transmitter is still effective in this world, and if it is effective, what will come out.

Although Ying wanted to give it a try, considering that there was no elemental power here, she would have to wait until her elemental combat skills were ready before she could use it, which was really troublesome, so she planned to take it back.

But Ling Yue's words made her forget her next move:

"It's a good thing, but it's so good that I can hardly believe it. Her talent is almost catching up with mine. She's just like the legendary exiled immortal."

"Excommunicate the Immortal!"

"Exiled to Immortal?"

Gu Ling and Ying shouted at the same time, but one was surprised and the other was confused.

“I have only heard that there is a record on Tianya Island that after reaching the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the cultivator will reach a point where he is almost immortal. Even if he dies, his soul and consciousness will still remain.

Therefore, even if such an immortal dies, his soul will return to the human world to continue practicing. When the time is right, he will regain his strength and return to his original realm.

But even in the era when some people were able to break through to the Celestial Realm, such things were only recorded in legends.”

"Isn't this a good thing?" Ying put the mass parameter meter on the table, her face full of surprise.

According to her estimation, the immortals in the Heavenly Fairyland are roughly equivalent to the Seven Gods of Teyvat. Moreover, even if the demon god of Teyvat dies, his thoughts will still remain, which further confirms Ying's guess.

However, she had never seen a fallen demon god resurrected. If Gui Yan was really a banished immortal, then wouldn’t she be more powerful than an ordinary demon god!

Could it be that Guiyan once had the strength to rival that of the Upholder of Heavenly Justice?

Ying didn't know all this, but from Ling Yue's tone, it didn't seem like a completely good thing.

"The Exiled Immortal is powerful, which is certainly a good thing for us, but once the Exiled Immortal regains his strength, his memory will also return..."

Having said this, Ling Yue paused, her tone somewhat hesitant.

"By that time, will Guiyan still be the Guiyan we know?"

Ying felt that Ling Yue's tone became heavier, or maybe it was because she herself felt heavy inside that she subconsciously added weight to the other person's words.

She couldn't help but look at Gui Yan. At this time, Gui Yan was still immersed in cultivation and had no idea what was happening in the outside world. He even had a faint smile on his face.

According to Ying's understanding of her, Guiyan might have smiled because she discovered that her cultivation speed had increased and thought that she would be able to help herself soon.

Ying didn't know what to say, but she heard a voice coming from the gate of the mansion, and someone shouted:

"Old Zhu! Coming back from the dead is such a happy event, such a great happy event!"
