Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
An old man in his seventies.
The old man sat in a wheelchair. He was extremely thin, and his hand that was holding a walking stick was even trembling. His body was covered in all kinds of beads that warded off evil spirits. There were also crosses used for prayer and many gems that Yunbao could not name.
But what shocked Yunbao the most was that she saw dozens of vengeful spirits following this old man, and these vengeful spirits were basically boys her age.
“This is…?” Yunbao asked Song Yun silently. Song Yun was also a little shocked.
She had not seen such a situation for decades.
“These are all the food that daddy found for me!” Mu Zi happily introduced them to Yunbao. He no longer had the hostility from before, as if nothing had happened.
Food?!
Yunbao and Song Yun were shocked.
“Yes, because I’m easily hungry, Dad comes to feed me every year!”
Every year, there would be one per year? Yunbao roughly counted a total of 25 vengeful spirits, which meant that Mu Zi had been here for at least 25 years. Then, how could he tell Yunbao that he and Rong Xuan were born on the same day?
“Are you Gu Teng?” The old man looked up at Yunbao as if he knew her. Then, he shook his head. “Gu Teng has already grown up.”
“You know my mother?” Gu Yun asked carefully. She didn’t expect anyone other than her family to know her mother.
“Mother?” The old man reacted for a while. “Gu Teng already has a child…” The old man’s eyes suddenly focused on Yunbao. He leaned out and looked at
Yunbao carefully. “You really look like her! That’s good, that’s really good.. The old man muttered.
“If everything goes well, my son will be like you soon!”
Yunbao knew what he was talking about, and Mu Zi followed suit.
“No! Brother Xuanxuan is a human, not an object. You can’t change him just because you want to!” Yunbao stretched out her hand to block Rong Xuan.
Rong Xuan’s life was still flowing away. Yunbao had to quickly think of a way to bring Rong Xuan out of here.
“Don’t think about it. How can a little girl like you bring him away?” Mu Zi floated over. “Furthermore, this isn’t a place where you can leave just because you want to. There’s a boundary outside. If it wasn’t for me, do you think you would be able to enter so easily?”
“Master, what was the way to save Brother Xuanxuan?” Yunbao asked Song Yun.
“It’s your blood. Yunbao, this is very dangerous. You can’t use it unless it’s necessary!” Song Yun reminded.
“Are you going to use your blood to save him?” Mu Zi showed signs of going berserk again. “Why! Is he that important? Wait for me for half a day. I can also accompany you. I can replace him!”
“You shut up!” Yunbao had a headache from Mu Zi’s argument and directly shouted. However, in the eyes of the old man, all of this was just Yunbao talking to herself. However, he still acutely sensed that something was wrong with Yunbao.
“You can see Mu Zi?” Mu Xun was excited as he sat in the wheelchair.
Mu Zi was his only son. He was the son that Mu Xun had gotten when he was 60 years old. His wife had died from a hemorrhage during childbirth. Mu Zi was also malnourished and was placed in the incubator when he was born. Even though he had used a lot of money, he could not save the child. Mu Zi died of illness when he was five.
At first, Mu Xun could not accept this result, but no hospital was willing to accept an already dead person.
Until that day, someone who called himself a sorcerer knocked on the door of the Mu family.
“He said he could help me, but he wanted someone,” Mu Xun murmured, as if telling a story from a long time ago.
“Who?” Yunbao had a faint premonition.
“Gu Teng.” Mu Xun said the name in Yunbao’s heart. It was indeed her. “Gu Teng was about the same age as you now. I will never forget those big eyes.” “What happened next? Did you help him?” Yunbao asked.
“Of course, I can’t let my son die just like that. Coincidentally, Gu Teng is the daughter of one of my subordinates. In terms of seniority, he should be your grandfather. ”
Yunbao did not expect there to be such a relationship..
