The moon shone like water as Tang Xiaotang sat by the window alone, staring at the night sky.

The moon was still round, but a line was missing at the very edge. The bright moonlight made the stars lose their color. Other than that white light that shrouded the entire sky, Tang Xiaotang could not see a single star.

She knew what Luo Si meant by that, but to her, he could not die. With his current strength, he was absolutely unable to contend against so many vengeful spirits.

She also understood the reason why he didn't allow her to leave the Sacred Domain. Her body was corroded by the curse, and the chilliness that seeped into her bones was something she had to endure all the time. Even now, with a thick blanket covering her body, she had no way to resist the chilliness that seeped out of her body.

But she did not regret it. If she did not do that, they would not have been able to survive under those conditions.

Furthermore, her effort was not in vain. She could feel that Luo Si had already slowly formed a shadow of her in his heart, but he was still lacking an opportunity …

"Child, why aren't you going to rest?"

The old nun's voice sounded by her ear. Tang Xiaotang turned her head and saw the old nun wearing a nun outfit standing beside him, looking at him in a peaceful manner. Her eyes seemed to be eternally calm. Even though her age was somewhat cloudy, she still possessed a power that would cause others to feel at ease.

She turned around and smiled. "Sister, aren't you still awake?"

The nun looked at her with benevolent eyes and said softly, "I am the servant of God. Deep in the night, we are closest to God."

Tang Xiaotang did not understand the meaning of her words. She did not have any faith in him, so she was unable to understand her thoughts.

"Sister, please go back to sleep."

She continued to look back at the sky. Ever since she came to this world, she had never had such a quiet time. She enjoyed it very much.

"You seem to have something on your mind. Tell me, maybe I can help you."

The nun's understanding gaze made Tang Xiaotang's heart move. The nun had lived here for a long time, maybe she knew something about the curse.

"The person I love has been hit by the most vicious curse... I wanted to save him, but I didn't know what to do … Even after searching through all of the ancient books, I still couldn't find a way to remove the curse … "

Tang Xiaotang forced out a smile and told the nun in a soft voice, "I know I cannot save him, so I can only watch as he dries up … If I knew the method to remove the curse, he wouldn't have become like that … "

"Don't be sad, child." "He won't blame you."

"I know, but nun, that curse has been imprisoning his soul all this time … "He's not free, I know he must be in pain …"

Tang Xiaotang said in a low voice, "If possible, even if the price is the loss of my life, I will still save him."

The nun's expression was one of compassion. She didn't want to see a dead soul unable to be reincarnated. To her, that was a very cruel thing to do.

She seemed to remember something. She looked up and said softly, "Come with me, child. I think that place can help you. "

Through the long cloisters at the side of the church, the moonlight shone on the painted floor, making it glow with a silvery light. The church seemed to be covered with a thin veil, mysterious and elegant. Tang Xiaotang stepped onto the floor, the high dome was lifted up by the gigantic pillar, and the carvings on the pillar had already suffered deep cracks, which explained the history of the church. It stood in the world like an old man who had experienced many vicissitudes of life. However, he didn't know how long it would be able to protect this region of the pure land …

They walked through the old carvings and down the stairs into a hidden, narrow passage.

Opening a small door, the nun brought Tang Xiaotang into a room.

She lit the candles on the table, and a little flame slowly illuminated the wall in front of her. When Tang Xiaotang saw the things on the wall, her pupils shrank.

He did not know how long this room had existed for, but those walls were actually real stones. The ancient murals, words, and symbols engraved on them told Tang Xiaotang that these things were definitely not simple.

On the wall directly in front of him, a familiar vermilion totem appeared. It was the exact same pattern as the curse on Luo Si's chest.

The thing he had been looking for for a long time suddenly appeared in front of him, causing Tang Xiaotang to become excited. As long as Luo Si's curse was lifted, they would not have to work so hard anymore.

"This is the most secluded place in the entire church. I never allow anyone to enter. Because, these things... "This is too evil …"

Tang Xiaotang looked at the diagrams, and they clearly depicted the consequences of the curse … As well as the method to remove it …

"Can they help you? "Child?"

"Thank you, Sister …" I think I've found the answer I need. "

That night, Tang Xiaotang held the candle and looked through the entire secret room's design once. She carefully memorized every single word on it, and then silently walked out of the secret room.

According to the depiction on the mural, combining the words and the symbols, Tang Xiaotang roughly understood the origin of the curse.

The curse was called 'Yue Ye's Cold Night', and its name was very pleasant to hear, but it was a vicious curse that could freeze one's soul.

It was created by a deity exiled by the gods.

Legend has it that this god had fallen in love with a god whose status was much higher than hers, but the other didn't love her. In despair, she used her soul as the array to create this vicious curse.

In the end, the god that didn't love her had fallen, and she had been driven out of the Sacred Domain by the angry gods, stripped of her divine spark, and exiled into the human world. Thus, the curse was spread to the human world.
