Duan Zhengchun transmigrates to Yin Zhiping

Lu Wushuang, whose tears had long since dried up, raised her head in disbelief and looked at Duan Zhengchun, who was gazing affectionately at Li Mochou.

Everyone was shocked, but Li Mochou's face remained unchanged as she silently gazed at Duan Zhengchun, as if everything around her was no longer relevant to her.

Duan Zhengchun glanced apologetically at Li Mochou and walked straight towards the mourning hall, where everyone followed.

Duan Zhengchun arrived at the mourning hall, glanced at Lu Zhanyuan who was lying motionless in the coffin, and quickly touched the corpse with his right index finger.

"Uh…"

A strange sound rang out, and Lu Zhanyuan, who had been dead, suddenly moved and struggled to sit up.

Upon seeing this, the people of Lu Family Village all took a step back, their faces filled with shock.

Immediately afterwards, Duan Zhengchun repeated the same method, waking He Yuanjun as well.

Only then did people truly believe that Lu Zhanyuan and his wife, who had been placed in coffins in preparation for burial, were actually still alive!

"Father?! Mother?!"

Lu Wushuang cried out and rushed to the coffin, embracing Lu Zhanyuan and sobbing uncontrollably.

Huang Yaoshi smiled as he looked at the two who had come back from the dead, and his eyes showed even more approval as he looked at Duan Zhengchun.

"Young Master Duan... no, Young Hero Yin, what exactly happened? We clearly saw you make the move with our own eyes, why did this happen?!"

Wu Santong looked at Duan Zhengchun with a mixture of excitement and confusion, voicing the question on everyone's mind.

Duan Zhengchun looked at Lu Zhanyuan and his wife being helped out of the coffin and said calmly, "Actually, they have indeed died once. Fifteen years ago, Lu Zhanyuan committed an unforgivable mistake. He should not have broken his promise and been heartless."

"If it weren't for this, there would never have been a female demon like the Red Serpent Fairy in the martial arts world. He ruined Li Mochou's life, so he deserves to die."

"But considering that he has done a lot of good deeds for the people of Jiangling City over the years in order to atone for his sins, and that he has admitted his mistakes and corrected them, I spared his life and gave him a chance to start over."

"At that time, I took advantage of your innate true energy to protect his heart meridian, and then quickly struck their vital points, which is why you found that they had already died when you investigated."

"But in fact, they are still alive. They can hear everything we say, but they cannot wake up. They are in excruciating pain all over their bodies and cannot struggle or scream. They can only silently endure the pain that may be more unbearable than death!"

"Consider it the price he paid for the mistakes he made back then!"

After hearing Duan Zhengchun's explanation, everyone present finally understood that everything was a deception deliberately created by Duan Zhengchun.

Huang Yaoshi nodded approvingly and said slowly, "To be able to do all this in an instant without revealing any flaws is not something that just anyone can do easily. Even I, an old man, would find it difficult to do!"

"Not only must the force be steady, but the timing must also be precise. The slightest mistake can lead to drastically different outcomes!"

Lu Zhanyuan and his wife, supporting each other, came to Duan Zhengchun's side, suddenly knelt on the ground, clasped their hands and said, "Thank you, Young Hero Yin, for your efforts in protecting Lu Family Village."

"Although I have endured inhuman suffering, I was indeed wrong fifteen years ago, and I deserve to suffer the consequences. From now on, as long as Young Hero Yin has any requests, the Lu Family Manor will do its utmost to help!"

Duan Zhengchun reached out and helped the two up, saying calmly, "What happened today was not simply for the sake of the Lu Family Manor. Master Lu doesn't need to feel indebted to me. Just be a good person and do things properly in the future, and don't break your promises to others."

"Your wife has been with you for so many years, it hasn't been easy for her, so remember to treat her well."

Lu Zhanyuan nodded, turned around and took He Yuanjun's hand, his face full of apology.

Standing to the side, Lu Wushuang looked at Duan Zhengchun with a solemn expression. She had originally hated Duan Zhengchun to the core, wishing she could skin him alive, but now she realized that it was all a lie.

She didn't know how to face the future, especially after witnessing what Duan Zhengchun did for Li Mochou. She didn't know how to choose the path she had buried deep in her heart.

Duan Zhengchun hesitated before looking at Lu Wushuang, whose expression was solemn. He then noticed that Lu Wushuang had turned away in a panic, deliberately avoiding his gaze.

Seeing Lu Wushuang like this, Duan Zhengchun couldn't help but sigh in his heart, feeling somewhat guilty. He then turned his gaze to Cheng Ying, who was guarding Lu Wushuang's side, and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

When Cheng Ying saw Duan Zhengchun looking at her, she nodded silently and gave a slight bow, everything understood without saying a word.

In fact, from the very beginning, Cheng Ying was the only person in the entire Lu Family Village who knew the truth!

Before Lu Zhanyuan and his wife arrived at Duan Zhengchun's room, Duan Zhengchun had already found Cheng Ying and told her his plan. Lu Wushuang's belated arrival and crying, as well as Li Mochou's sudden rush out after arriving at the door, were all things that he had secretly arranged for Cheng Ying to do.

Only in this way will everything seem real. The more real it seems, the less likely Li Mochou will doubt it, and only then can she completely let go of this hatred.

Even if a dead person comes back to life, it's all over.

"Alright, now that this matter is settled, Young Hero Duan, Master Lu, I'll take my leave. I have some other matters to attend to."

At this moment, Huang Yaoshi smiled and slightly clasped his hands in greeting to Duan Zhengchun and Lu Zhanyuan, preparing to leave. He no longer wanted to get involved in Li Mochou's affairs.

"Senior, walk slowly."

Duan Zhengchun returned the greeting with a fist and a fist salute, and said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Yaoshi turned and left, quickly leaping onto the wall and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Duan Zhengchun turned to look at Li Mochou, who had been standing outside the mourning hall, and a faint smile gradually appeared on his lips.

Seeing this, Lu Zhanyuan, who was standing to the side, wisely ordered everyone from Lu Family Village to disperse, and then took He Yuanjun's hand and slowly walked out of the mourning hall.

Looking at Li Mochou standing at the bottom of the stone steps, Lu Zhanyuan moved his lips, but he really didn't know what to say, so he could only leave silently.

Moreover, he had noticed that Li Mochou hadn't even glanced at him; her eyes were only on Duan Zhengchun.

As everyone left, Duan Zhengchun slowly walked out of the mourning hall, came to Li Mochou, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I lied to you."

Li Mochou shook her head vigorously and said slowly, "Whether he lives or dies is no longer important to me. Besides, I heard very clearly just now that you have made him suffer torment that is more painful than death."

"But why did you do all this for me, even declaring war on Huang Yaoshi, the Eastern Heretic, for my sake? Don't you know he is one of the Five Greats of the world, and his martial arts are among the top five in the world?"

Duan Zhengchun smiled and said firmly, "I know, but I just don't want you to be bullied anymore."

Upon hearing this, Li Mochou couldn't help but shudder again, her heart churning with turmoil. She turned away, shook her head, and said, "I'm not worth you doing this!"

No one deserves it more than you.

With a gentle smile on his lips, Duan Zhengchun spoke as he slowly walked towards Li Mochou, and couldn't help but reach out and take her hand.

Upon seeing this, Li Mochou immediately fled like a startled rabbit, her face turning bright red. After nervously swallowing, she said softly, "I'm leaving now. If fate allows, let's meet again in the martial world."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Mochou turned and left without looking back. She leaped onto the roof and disappeared into the night.

Hong Lingbo bowed to Duan Zhengchun, took one last look at him, and immediately chased after his master in the direction he had left.

However, in the way she looked at Duan Zhengchun, there seemed to be a faint, strange emotion that was somewhat similar to what her master had seen in his eyes earlier.

What kind of deep wounds must she have suffered to be so afraid of my approach?

Duan Zhengchun gazed in the direction where Li Mochou had disappeared, his face bitter, and shook his head with a sigh.

That night, a lavish banquet was held at Lu Family Manor to express gratitude to Duan Zhengchun for his selfless rescue.

During the banquet, Duan Zhengchun drank a lot of wine. He didn't know if it was because he was craving alcohol, because he felt sorry for Li Mochou's cautiousness, or because this incident reminded him of the women who were willing to stay by his side in his previous life.

He really doesn't know.

So, fortunately, I've let go of all my shackles and worries, and it's better to get drunk and enjoy myself.
