C64

As I opened the door, all of the Aunt Tao and Aunt Zhang in the living room looked at me in surprise.

I stood in the doorway, caught between a rock and a hard place.

I never expected that Aunt Tao and Yu Kexin would actually return early.

Aunt Zhang quickly took the backpack from my hands and repeatedly asked me what had happened to make me look so miserable.

Aunt Tao and Yu Kexin stood up from the sofa. Aunt Tao told him not to ask too many questions, and urged me to take a hot bath quickly. Yu Kexin looked at me with eyes full of curiosity.

I smiled apologetically at Aunt Tao and Yu Kexin, then quickly returned to my room to change clothes before heading to the bathroom to shower and change.

When I was showering, Qi Xiaohan communicated with me mentally and asked where I was. I told him that I had successfully obtained the Life Plate and had safely returned home.

He asked me if I was in danger, and I told him I was busy, and that I would contact him later.

Finally, the sound of Qi Xiaoxian's voice could be heard. My heart was filled with gloom.

After showering and changing my clothes, I took the peach wood dagger and the two tokens with me.

When I came out of the bathroom with my clothes changed, the Aunt Zhang took the clothes in my hands and told me to go to the living room to accompany the Aunt Tao and Yu Kexin to chat.

I walked towards the living room. Aunt Tao smiled and waved me over, indicating that I should sit beside her.

After I sat down, the Aunt Tao asked me why I was in such a sorry state.

I told Aunt Tao with pen and paper that a classmate had invited me to go to the park to play. A child accidentally fell into the water.

Aunt Tao asked when did I learn how to swim, and I wrote that I had only recently learned how to swim.

Aunt Tao patted my hand and sincerely told me that saving a person's life is better than creating a seven-level pagoda.

But before I save someone, I must first confirm whether or not I can escape unscathed. There are too many examples of me risking my life to save someone.

Yu Kexin was laughing at my guts. She took out a watch from her bag and put it on me, saying that it was her New Year's gift to me.

She now gave me her watch in advance as a way to calm me down, and then she would give me other New Year's gifts.

Aunt Tao frowned, saying that it was too sensible for Yu Kexin to use her watch as a New Year's gift.

Yu Kexin said with a smile that we were not ordinary people. We all knew that gifting a watch to someone else was nothing out of the ordinary, I definitely wouldn't feel that something was amiss.

Yu Kexin then looked at me with her clear eyes. I nodded and took down my watch to return it to Yu Kexin.

The watch that Yu Kexin had given me was a limited edition watch, so I did not need this kind of high-end product.

Yu Kexin looked at Aunt Tao for help. Aunt Tao shook her head and returned the watch to my wrist, then said that I would not reject Yu Kexin's gift.

Yu Kexin sat on the other side of the Aunt Tao and held onto Aunt Tao's arm, complaining about the bias of the Aunt Tao.

Aunt Tao chuckled softly. I couldn't help but smile.

The Aunt Tao and Yu Kexin had not been home for long, and their luggage was still in the living room. The Aunt Tao then moved to the room that the Aunt Zhen had previously shared, which Yu Kexin wanted to share with me.

Aunt Zhang opened up her room, allowing Yu Kexin to stay in her room.

I wrote to Aunt Zhang that there was no need for her to do this, she could just share my room with Yu Kexin.

The Aunt Zhang told me in a low voice that she had arranged for Yu Kexin to stay in his room. The air-conditioning in the living room had been repaired, and it was the same for her when she slept on the sofa.

When both Aunt Tao and Yu Kexin finished packing, it was already time for lunch. Because Aunt Zhang had not had the time to cook her food, she suggested going out to eat.

The restaurant that Yu Kexin chose was divided into two storeys and there were no private booths inside. While the group was eating on the second floor, I accidentally saw Qi Xiaohan's stepmother.

Wei Xiaowan's stepmother had a calm smile on her face as she and a middle-aged man were having their meal on the first floor. That middle-aged man looked quite similar to Wei Xiao Han.

When I saw Qi Xiaohan's mom, I couldn't help but sigh at the narrow path our enemies took. During our meal, I had been paying close attention to her every movement.

That middle-aged man is most likely my father, I am not worried that his stepmother will come and touch my bad luck in front of him, not worried that the Aunt Tao and the rest will suspect anything because of this.

Not long after, I saw another twenty-something year old man enter the restaurant and head straight for Qi Xiaoxian's stepmother's table.

That man had a carefree appearance, and looked just like the stepmother of Qi Xiaohan.

I couldn't hear what the man was saying. I saw that his father's face was getting more and more unsightly. In the end, he threw a cup at the man.

After the man dodged the incoming cup, the stepmother pulled her father away and signaled him with her eyes to leave.

The glass shattered on the floor, and the noise attracted the attention of most of the guests dining in the restaurant.

After the man left the restaurant in a fit of anger, the stepmother and father followed closely. I was right about the sinister look in the man's eyes as he left.

My mind connected with Qi Xiaoxian, telling him what I saw just now, and also telling him that I not only have his Life Plate with me, but also his brother's Life Plate.

After I finished, Qi Xiaohan asked me what had happened to me in the morning. I briefly told him about my experiences in the morning.

After a moment of silence, Qi told me that the situation in his house was exactly what I had seen.

He was going to be killed by his stepmother because his father was a big family, and that was probably why his father followed in his footsteps.

There are many uses for living people's Life Plate, he would come to me at night to get them.

His stepmother is a vengeful person, she will find out my secret very soon.

He wanted to use his brother's Life Plate to force his stepmother to not look for trouble with him, and his brother to not have any thoughts towards his father.

I told the Aunt Tao that she was back, and she said she would be careful.

After we finished lunch, Yu Kexin said that she had nothing better to do and suggested that we go to the park where I rescued people in the morning.

Aunt Tao and Aunt Zhang didn't have any objections, so we went back to the park.

immediately pulled me into the park to bring her to the lake where I rescued people. I wrote and wrote that it wasn't anything good, so Yu Kexin insisted on going there.

When I brought Yu Kexin, Aunt Tao and the others to the lakeside, the Aunt Tao glanced at the lake's surface and frowned her forehead.

After Yu Kexin circled the lake once, she asked me what I had seen at the bottom. I wrote that I had not reached the bottom of the lake yet, so after entering the water, I felt that my soul had become unstable.

Yu Kexin said that my luck was not bad, said that the grievances in the entire lake were deep, and that there should be many ghosts at the bottom of the lake, and that those ghosts were imprisoned at the bottom of the lake unable to be reincarnated.

If my soul left my body, my soul would immediately become a member of the ghosts at the bottom of the lake. Even if Aunt Tao was there, he wouldn't be able to save me.

Yu Kexin's words made me frightened. I asked Yu Kexin in pen and paper how she knew about the situation at the bottom of the lake when she was submerged in the lake.

Yu Kexin laughed proudly, holding Aunt Tao's arm, saying that the reason she knew so much was because Aunt Tao taught her well.

There was a slight smile on my face, and I didn't have any excess emotion in my heart.

Although I don't understand much, and Aunt Tao doesn't plan on letting anyone else teach me more Ghost Dao skills, I won't blame Aunt Tao for anything either. Since Aunt Tao arranged everything like that, there must be a reason for her actions.

Aunt Tao made Yu Kexin less talkative, and asked me with a chuckle if I wanted to learn feng shui. Surprised and pleasantly surprised, I naturally nodded immediately.

Aunt Tao said that she will only leave with Yu Kexin after the new year. Yu Kexin will be in charge of teaching me feng shui during this period of time.

When I learn feng shui, I will naturally understand why the lake water can make people's souls unsteady, and why the bottom of the lake can imprison the souls of the wrongdoers to be unable to reincarnate.

Previously, she was not as good at feng shui. She had studied a lot of it over the years, but her skills were not as good as Yu Kexin's.

Yu Kexin's eyes curved as she asked if I was happy. I told her with pen and paper that I had to be happy.

As we were strolling in the park, I recalled how Yu Kexin fought against Zuo Mu at a gathering in the sect. After I finished speaking to Yu Kexin about it, I started to probe further.

Aunt Tao probably doesn't know that Mu Shuo is Zuo Mu, otherwise when I left the gathering grounds with her, she wouldn't tell me, and she wouldn't tell me why Zuo Mu didn't go to the gathering either.

If even the Aunt Tao didn't know that Mu Shuo was Zuo Mu, then Yu Kexin definitely shouldn't have known that Mu Shuo was Zuo Mu.

Disregarding the fact that Yu Kexin knew that Mu Shuo was indeed Zuo Mu, with just a few words, Mu Shuo was able to stop his attack. She had definitely known about Mu Shuo beforehand, and he had a rather good understanding of him.

Yu Kexin had grown up in Malaysia with the Aunt Tao, how did she know of Mu Shuo?
