A passerby in a horror movie

Indeed, Chu Renmei was outside the door when Li Haotian interrogated Bu Wantian.

This was also arranged by him; Chu Renmei wouldn't give up until she heard her husband's words with her own ears.

As soon as Li Haotian finished speaking, the sound of crying was heard.

Just as he was about to turn around, his magical power suddenly fluctuated again, and the blockage in his body almost disappeared.

As soon as Li Haotian stepped out of the study, he saw Chu Renmei kneel down in front of him with a thud.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor."

Chu Renmei bowed deeply, and Li Haotian quickly helped her up.

Good heavens, you can't just worship like that.

It is only the living who kneel and worship the dead. How can a vengeful ghost like Chu Renmei worship a living person like him?

He always remembered that this was an illusion.

“My benefactor, you have now killed someone and injured Bu Wantian. You should leave quickly, or the people here will not let this go if you are discovered.”

Chu Renmei urged hurriedly.

Li Haotian saved her, and Chu Renmei naturally didn't want to harm him. If the villagers of Huangshan Village found out that Li Haotian had injured Bu Wantian, they probably wouldn't let him leave.

The people here are very xenophobic; even if Bu Wantian does something wrong, they won't allow outsiders to deal with it.

"No rush, there's still one thing to do."

Li Haotian shook his head, not in a hurry to leave.

Li Haotian had no intention of letting Bu Wantian, that beast, get away with it so easily.

He said he would ruin Bu Wantian's reputation.

As he spoke, Li Haotian returned to the study and used magic to stop Bu Wantian's bleeding. This guy couldn't die now.

After stopping the bleeding, Li Haotian called Chu Renmei in.

"Chu Renmei, now that Bu Wantian's affair has been exposed, whether he is alive or dead, you can no longer stay in Huangshan Village. I suggest you leave tonight and go to the drama troupe. Don't come back."

Li Haotian said to Chu Renmei.

Chu Renmei is a woman with no children. If she stays in Huangshan Village, she probably won't have a good life. It would be better for her to leave, since she can earn money on her own anyway.

"Yes, I'll go pack my things right away. You should leave quickly too, lest you get discovered."

Chu Renmei nodded, thanked Li Haotian, and went back to pack her things.

The Bu family didn't have many valuables, so Chu Renmei quickly took everything, leaving only a few backpacks, which was quite efficient.

It was now late at night, and most of the villagers had extinguished their candles. Under the cover of darkness, Li Haotian and Chu Renmei dragged Bu Wantian and Tian Qi, who was deep in the alley, to the woods at the village entrance.

"My benefactor, are you going to kill them?"

Chu Renmei remained calm and did not plead with Li Haotian. Instead, she looked coldly at Bu Wantian and Tian Qi.

Both of them are currently unconscious; killing them and disposing of their bodies would be a piece of cake.

"No need. Wasn't Bu Wantian plotting to harm you for the sake of his reputation? Then I'll ruin his reputation and make him despised by the money shop lady."

Without the financial support of the moneylender, this guy will either be beaten to death by debt collectors or tormented to death by opium addiction.

Li Haotian shook his head and said.

Killing Bu Wantian like this is too lenient on him.

As he spoke, Li Haotian stripped Bu Wantian and Tian Qi naked, tied them tightly to the tree with rope in an embracing position.

Then he took out a dagger and slashed Bu Wantian's face several times.

This grove of trees is located at a crossroads, connecting not only Huangshan Village but also several other villages. Villagers often pass by, and as soon as it gets light, Bu Wantian will be spotted by others.

If two naked men were stripped naked and tied together, with one of them having his face disfigured, and this got out, Bu Wantian would be ridiculed for the rest of his life.

After doing all this, Li Haotian immediately felt a sense of relief, and there was no longer any obstruction to his magical power.

Chu Renmei watched from the side without any attempt to hide her gaze, instead staring intently at Li Haotian.

Li Haotian vaguely sensed a faint yin energy appearing, and immediately became vigilant.

"Miss Chu, please leave now, it's getting late."

Li Haotian suggested.

However, Chu Renmei did not respond to him. She turned and walked into the depths of the woods. Li Haotian was a little puzzled and followed her.

"You are a good person."

Chu Renmei had her back to Li Haotian at the moment, and her voice was a little hoarse.

"I just did what I was supposed to do."

Li Haotian was secretly pleased to be given the "friend card," but he remained modest.

"If someone had helped me back then, even just spared me, or let Bu Wantian divorce me, I wouldn't have such a deep resentment..."

Chu Renmei's tone gradually became sinister, and her figure became blurry.

Li Haotian immediately sensed something was wrong. He noticed that the yin energy around him was slowly gathering around Chu Renmei.

“They deserve to die. I killed them, but I still can’t quell their resentment. Seeing what you did, I feel a little relieved. Bu Wantian deserved this fate. You did a good job… Thank you.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Renmei's figure completely transformed into a vengeful ghost. Her blue theatrical costume and long, flowing hair made her look extremely creepy.

The surrounding environment had also changed. At Chu Renmei's feet lay a corpse wrapped in a mat, its death scene extremely gruesome.

However, Li Haotian was not afraid.

His magical power had been restored, and he had magical artifacts with him, so even in Chu Renmei's illusion, the other party could not do anything to him.

Moreover, judging from Chu Renmei's tone, perhaps she still has some sense.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have said such a thing.

“Miss Chu, since that’s the case, could you please stop killing? Huangshan Village is now history, and you’ve avenged yourself. It’s time to let it go.”

"I will give your remains a proper burial, so they will never be left to languish in the wilderness again."

Seeing that Chu Renmei was able to communicate, Li Haotian tentatively tried to persuade her.

Neither he nor Chu Renmei could do anything to each other right now. Although he had a magical artifact, he couldn't get close to Chu Renmei or cause her any real harm.

Chu Renmei was also unable to harm Li Haotian. If she hadn't discovered a trace of her Yin energy mark on Li Haotian, she might not have been able to pull him into the illusion.

Even so, Chu Renmei's illusion could not trap Li Haotian for long, after all, this thing also consumes energy and cannot be used casually.

Therefore, Li Haotian chose to try diplomacy first and then resort to force. If Chu Renmei was willing to listen to his advice, then everyone would be happy.

If he doesn't listen, Li Haotian will have no choice but to force a breakthrough.

He could sense that the illusion was not as real as before. If he attacked with all his might and depleted Chu Renmei's yin energy, he should be able to break free.

Upon hearing Li Haotian's words, Chu Renmei did not respond immediately. After a moment of silence, she slowly turned to face Li Haotian and tossed her hair back.

Suddenly, a terrifying face appeared before Li Haotian. Chu Renmei opened her mouth and replied:

"it is good."

Li Haotian was startled by her appearance, and his brows twitched.

"Damn it, if you agree, then agree. Why are you trying to scare me?"

Li Haotian couldn't help but complain in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

As Chu Renmei finished speaking, the surrounding environment changed again. The illusion disappeared, replaced by a dry riverbed and white bones.

Chu Renmei's figure had disappeared, but Li Haotian could clearly sense a strong fluctuation of yin energy on the white bones, indicating that Chu Renmei was inside.

Li Haotian picked up the bracelet at his feet. The bracelet also had a strong yin energy, which seemed to come from the same source as Chu Renmei's, but it was difficult to detect.
