The next moment, as Lin Yan's body was enveloped by the two beams of red and blue light, the holes in his soul also began to mend.
Unable to endure the beams, the wolf demon stood up abruptly. Upon glancing at Lin Yan's soul body unintentionally, it chuckled, "Hey, your holes are gone."
"..." Hearing the wolf demon's words, Lin Yan curled his lips. He quickly lowered his head to look at his gradually healing body, speechless, only feeling warmth surrounding his soul.
The Yin Messenger remained squatting beside Lin Yan's body, placing his palm above Lin Yan's chest. As he cast his spell, he said, "Wolf demon, can you say one less word? You're really affecting my performance."
"That's your own lack of concentration, and now you're blaming me," the wolf demon said, turning its back and walking a short distance away.
Lin Yan's soul body began to gradually fade.
In the dilapidated room.
Mu An Xiao and Feng Qi Shi exchanged glances. Feng Qi Shi said, "Immortal energy, it's a Yin Messenger." He hadn't heard the wolf demon or the others, only some sounds.
"Mm," Mu An Xiao nodded.
Immediately, the female ghost, terrified, hid in a corner. "It's him," she said.
Hearing this, Mu An Xiao turned her head to look at the female ghost who had retreated unharmed, and the dog soul at the female ghost's feet. Feigning ignorance, she asked, "That... who are you referring to?"
The female ghost swallowed. "The one outside casting spells is the Yin Messenger who specializes in capturing me," she said. She then lowered her head to glance at the dog soul. "We must leave."
"Perhaps not," Mu An Xiao thought that running away any further was meaningless for the female ghost, so she said this. In reality, she already knew that the Yin Messenger who captured her was definitely that fellow.
"Definitely," the female ghost said. She looked at her hands and suddenly remembered her ability to phase through walls. She quickly lowered her head to look at the dog soul and said, "Let's go."
The dog soul barked.
Seeing this, Mu An Xiao casually conjured a silver rope and immediately flung it towards the female ghost.
Feng Qi Shi, watching Mu An Xiao's move, was also startled. "What are you doing?"
"..." Mu An Xiao ignored Feng Qi Shi. After binding the female ghost with the silver rope, she said, "You can't leave."
Everything happened so suddenly. The female ghost stared in astonishment at the tightly bound silver rope, then looked up at the angrily glaring Mu An Xiao opposite her and asked, "Why are you doing this to me?"
"If you continue like this, you'll truly become a lone spirit."
"..." The female ghost believed she was already a lone spirit. Hearing Mu An Xiao's words now, she was bewildered.
Mu An Xiao looked at the silent female ghost opposite her, then lowered her gaze to the dog soul that kept barking at her. She said, "A dog's life is naturally decades shorter than a human's. The age at which it becomes a lone spirit will also be shorter than yours. Moreover," she said, "it could have been reincarnated as a human. If it follows you, it won't even have a chance to become a dog in its next life. Do you truly want it to wander with you, to disappear completely before you do?"
The female ghost hadn't considered these things. She only wanted to be with the dog soul.
However, hearing Mu An Xiao's words, she hesitated. "Are you not lying to me?"
"I'm lying to you..." Mu An Xiao smiled slightly, looking down. "Why would I lie to you? It's meaningless for me to lie to you."
"But..." The female ghost glanced at the old woman standing motionless nearby and said, "I killed someone. Will I go to hell?"
"You killed someone?" Mu An Xiao repeated, shifting her gaze to the old woman's face. She paused deliberately and asked, "How did your husband die?"
"She killed..."
"Tell the truth," Mu An Xiao said sternly.
"He was bitten to death by a dog."
"Bitten to death by a dog," Mu An Xiao repeated knowingly, saying, "It has nothing to do with her."
"The dog she raised bit my husband to death."
"The dog she raised bit your husband to death." Mu An Xiao deliberately repeated, looking at the female ghost and asking, "Has this happened before?"
"No," the female ghost shook her head. "My dogs are all very gentle. Unless... they are threatened, they will only protect themselves."
"Threatened?" Mu An Xiao temporarily withheld her own interpretation of the matter and deliberately repeated.
The female ghost nodded. "Yes, because they are basically stray dogs and have been hurt emotionally. So, once they are threatened or their lives are in danger, they will protect themselves. However, as long as people are good to them, they won't act like this, and they won't bite people."
"Is that so!" Mu An Xiao nodded slightly and shifted her gaze back to the old woman. "Before your husband was bitten to death, what did he do to the dog?"
"..." The old woman dared not speak.
Mu An Xiao thought of what those people had said and looked at the old woman's unwilling expression. She sighed, "Your husband is already dead. Telling the truth won't kill you!" She knew her words were unpleasant, but she had to be this way when facing people who habitually lied.
"..." The old woman still hesitated, but hearing Mu An Xiao's tone, she also became fearful. "We used to... sell dog meat. He was bitten to death by a dog while killing it."
"A big dog?"
"Yes, bigger than a normal big dog. My husband said that the dog was big and fat, and could be sold for a good price, so he went to kill it. Who knew... because it was so big, he didn't knock it out completely. In the end..." The old woman's voice choked. "He was bitten to death alive."
"What about the dog?"
"I used..." The old woman dared not look at the female ghost and said in a low voice, "I beat it to death with a hoe."
The same way the dog soul died.
Mu An Xiao fell silent after hearing the old woman's words.
Feng Qi Shi was also speechless.
The female ghost looked down at the dog soul, thinking of the large dog that had bitten the old woman's husband to death. Her eyes darkened, and she said, "You people are truly... too depraved." She couldn't help but recall the gentle appearance of that large dog when it was alive, then imagined its tragic death. She clenched her fists and continued, "If I had known it would be like this, I... wouldn't have sent them away. Even if I were tired... it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have died at all."
"You just wanted to find them a home," Feng Qi Shi said. "This is not your fault."
"I..."
"Alright, it's happened. There's no point in saying more," Feng Qi Shi interrupted, looking at Mu An Xiao. "What do you think about this matter?"
Mu An Xiao glanced at Feng Qi Shi, then at the female ghost. "This has nothing to do with you. Her husband was bitten to death by a dog, not killed by you, so you won't go to hell."
"That's her dog," the old woman became agitated for no reason.
Mu An Xiao knew the old woman would interject to gain attention, so she had already prepared her response for the old woman. "She sold you dogs for you to raise, not to eat. You chose to do so yourselves, angered the dogs, and ended up with such a tragedy. You can't blame anyone. Blame yourselves."
