The man was so frightened that he wet his pants. He begged with tears streaming down his face, “Let me go, please let me go. She’s really dead. If you don’t believe me, go to the ancestral hall in the backyard and see that her memorial tablet is still there! She died ten years ago. She was killed by the water ghost after marrying me for only two days. The whole city can bear witness to that!”

Dead… how could she be dead?

Qu Yao’s ears buzzed. The hatred that had supported her for fifteen years suddenly had nowhere to be released at that moment.

It was not easy for her to come out of the demon world. She had an earth-shattering plan to seek revenge on her biological sister, but reality told her that the person she had hated for fifteen years was long dead.

That night, screams resounded throughout the entire courtyard. Every household in Tongcheng heard the miserable sounds. The cries for help and knocking on the door continued until dawn. No one dared to go near the courtyard. Even the watchman’s legs were broken by the tragic sounds.

“It’s too scary!”

When dawn broke, many passersby gathered in the distance of the courtyard and whispered, “They screamed all night long!”

“I didn’t dare to sleep all night. The water ghost must have come to find me again!”

“The water ghost has never made such a big noise in the past! The smell of blood can be smelled from ten miles away!”

“I heard that the officials have already sealed up the Qu family’s courtyard. The courtyard is covered in blood, and it is overflowing from the door frame!” Many people were chopped into minced meat when they died! What a sin! Since 25 years ago, no one in this family has been able to live well. They either died tragically or turned into demons and monsters!”

Qu Yao was like a walking corpse that had lost its soul. She just happened to bump into a passerby who was discussing. That passerby stared angrily at her and questioned whether she had eyes or not. However, he was so frightened by Qu Yao’s gaze that he did not dare to speak anymore.

She walked on the street numbly. All kinds of voices passed by her ears, but none of them told her that Qu Yue was not dead and was waiting for her personal revenge.

The passersby avoided her as if they were avoiding the god of plague. The coldness around her made people not dare to approach her. Even if her beautiful appearance attracted many people’s attention, they were all scared away by her murderous look.

Qu Yao’s shoulder was knocked, but she did not have any emotions. She did not even bother to carry a knife when she killed someone. She didn’t give him another look, but the man who hit her fell at her feet.

Just as she was about to kick the man away, the man raised his head and looked at her with bright eyes. His eyes were so beautiful, but they seemed to be unable to focus.

“I’m sorry.” The man stood up with the cane in his hand. “I can’t see. I’m really sorry. I didn’t hurt you, did I?”

Qu Yao was stunned. The familiar face of the man in front of her made her dazed for a moment.

“It’s you?” Qu Yao grabbed the man’s arm. The man frowned slightly because of the pain. “Miss, do you know me?”

No, the beautiful brother in the past was not blind. Moreover, the man in the past spoke confidently as if the world was in his hands. His eyes were cold and there was an irresistible pressure around him. The person in front of her was as weak as a willow branch. He did not have an overbearing feeling at all. The gentle smile at the corner of his mouth was different from that person’s. That person would never smile like that.

Moreover, the blind person in front of her did not have a red mole under the eyes, unlike that person.

“I don’t recognize you.”She coldly avoided the hand that the man extended.

“Wait.” Her sleeve was pulled from behind. “There is the smell of blood on the lady’s body.”

Qu Yao’s expression instantly changed. She clenched her fists and prepared to use the God and Demon sword with her other hand. She did not care about killing people on the street. Besides, she had already planned to massacre the city fifteen years ago, it was already a good deal for them to live in this cold place for fifteen years.
