C18 Against the will of God He Killed the Emperor

Jiang Louyue sensed the commotion and rushed over. "Jiaojiao is awake. How is she? Did she sleep well?"

Jiang Louyue walked past the door and entered the room. He seemed to have forgotten about the previous unhappiness between the two of them. His face was filled with gentleness.

"I'm not hungry," Caisang said anxiously. "Old Master Hu was killed."

"Oh." Jiang Louyue nodded. There was no surprise on his face. The death of Old Master Hu did not cause any ripples in the bottomless water.

It was as if he didn't care about it at all, or perhaps he already knew about it.

When he thought about the teapot that Jiang Louyue had deliberately taken away, a few wrinkles appeared between Caisang's brows. The gaze that was placed on him became more and more suspicious.

As if he had sensed Caisang's gaze, Jiang Louyue's face revealed a smile, as if it was painted on.

"Hu Ling'er killed so many people. It's impossible for her to let him go. If he wasn't captured by the constable, he would have died in Hu Ling'er's hands. No matter what, he can't escape."

Caisang nodded. He didn't know if he had accepted this explanation, but the suspicion in his eyes had disappeared a lot.

Yan Tine opened his mouth, "No matter what, let's go take a look first."

The air in the warehouse of the Hu family was filled with a fishy smell. In addition, there was no ventilation in the warehouse, so everyone was forced to take two steps back when they entered.

When Caisang and Jiang Louyue arrived, there were already a lot of people around them. The coroner stood guard at the entrance with an ugly expression on his face.

It seemed like he had just vomited, and his face was extremely ugly.

Seeing this scene, Caisang frowned, "What exactly is going on here?"

The old man waved his hand and swallowed his saliva with difficulty. He said, "Don't mention it. It's really too miserable inside. He suffered a lot when he died."

Caisang and Yan Tine looked at each other and walked inside.

There was a bloody body lying on the stage that was made of Thousand Faces. There was a human skin that was fixed to a chair in front of the body.

The human skin seemed to be a Thousand Faces that had been made. The human skin was torn off one by one, and it was not neat.

The Thousand Faces were carefully attached to the human skin. Looking at it carefully, it seemed like Old Master Hu was still alive, but his attitude was a little strange and gloomy.

Caisang's heart skipped a beat when he saw the empty eyes.

"He was stripped of his human skin when he was alive. It was Hu Ling'er who did it. Old Master Hu also experienced the pain his daughter went through in the end. This woman is really bold. She knew that we were here, but she still dared to make a move." Tonghua's face was cold.

The person on the bed had experienced a lot of pain. When he was stripped of his human skin, he kept struggling. The operation table was filled with blood, and the scene looked especially terrifying.

Tonghua said in a deep voice, “This monster will be a disaster if we don’t get rid of her.”

Yan Tine frowned slightly. “But there are so many people around us. Where are we going to find her?”

After a long silence, the people around them could only sigh. “We hope that she won’t cause any more trouble. If she hides herself, we’ll let her go. But if she does, we’ll capture her.”

“Where’s Hu Shisan?” Caisang suddenly remembered the young master of the Hu family. Although what happened back then had nothing to do with Hu Shisan, Hu Ling'er hated the Hu family so much. It was hard to say if Hu Ling'er would attack him.

“Immortal Elders, we didn’t find Young Master Hu… Hu Shisan’s traces,” a man who looked like a master said.

“It’s the best news if there’s no news. If Hu Ling'er wants to kill Hu Shisan, her corpse will definitely be here.” Yan Tine thought for a while and said in a soft voice.

“If that’s the case, then it’s even better.” Caisang’s eyelids twitched as he touched his eyelids. He felt a little better.

The master looked around and took a step forward with a troubled expression. He interrupted, “Immortal Elders, have you not gotten rid of the monster that caused all this trouble? Will he still attack us? What should we do if he attacks us after we leave?”

The few of them looked at each other. Then, Tonghua said, “She has gotten her revenge and has regained her freedom. She shouldn’t kill anyone anymore. If he attacks us again in the future, we’ll come back.”

"That's great." The master heaved a sigh of relief.

The people from the yamen hurriedly tidied up the corpses and all the evidence, then left the Hu family. The moment they put up a seal on the door, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

The Hu family, which was previously bustling with noise and excitement, had now evacuated all the servants. It was extremely cold and desolate. No one knew if it was an illusion, but everyone felt that the Hu family was surrounded by a layer of gray clouds, which made it seem especially gloomy.

The master shuddered and chuckled as he turned around to chase up to a few people.

"Immortal Elders, you must stay in Qujiang for a few more days. Let me treat you well." The master said some polite words.

"No need. The matter has already been resolved. We should leave now."

Jiang Louyue was not interested in him. Caisang and Yan Tine, one of them had a bad body, and the other was injured. They were carried back by a bamboo chair.

Only Tonghua, who had a cold face, remained. The atmosphere became extremely awkward. It was not easy for them to send the few of them to the inn. Only then did they heave a sigh of relief.

...

"Actually, it's fate that we are gathered together. Before we part, why don't I help you divinate?" Yan Tine's lips curled up into a smile.

"It is our fortune that the daughter of the Masanori Sect is able to obtain the divination of the Masanori Sect's chief disciple." No matter what, the matter had already been resolved. Tonghua was not as tense as before.

"In that case, I'll give this divination to Sect Master Tong." Jiang Louyue was in low spirits.

Yan Tine did not mind. He knew that he could not force others to do things that they did not want to do.

Caisang, on the other hand, was very interested. She sat in front of Yan Tine and her eyes lit up.

After preparing for a while, Yan Tine took out a few copper coins from his pocket and handed a turtle shell to Caisang. He asked her to shake it twice.

Caisang found it interesting and grabbed the turtle shell. The copper coin hit the turtle shell twice and made a crisp sound.

Before Caisang could put down the turtle shell in her hand, it suddenly cracked open and a copper coin flew out from the crack.

The copper coin rolled a few times on the ground and crashed into the corner of the table before it stopped.

The room was very quiet. Everyone looked at the copper coin and then placed the remaining copper coins on Caisang's body.

Caisang held the turtle shell in her hand. She could neither grab it nor put it down. Her expression was a little awkward as she said, "Sorry, I didn't do it on purpose."

"It's fine. This thing has been with me for a long time. It must have reached its limit." Yan Tine smiled warmly and took the turtle shell from Caisang's hand. He opened the lid and looked at the remaining two copper coins. The smile on his face suddenly disappeared.

The blood on his face faded away and his face turned pale.

"What's wrong?" Caisang noticed that his expression was a little off and asked carefully, "Is the divination not good?"

Yan Tine did not say anything. He counted with his fingers and then his expression became a little calmer. He smiled and said, "It's fine. Miss, there is a small calamity in the next few days. You can safely avoid it by staying away from the water."

"Thank you, Immortal Elder Yan Ting."

Jiang Louyue heard what the other party said and looked at the unconcealable shock in Yan Tine's eyes. The corner of his mouth curled up into a bitter smile.

The carriage was already prepared. Jiang Louyue and Caisang bid farewell to the other party.

Tonghua and Yan Ting stood at the entrance of the inn and sent them off. They stared at the carriage as it slowly walked away. Yan Tine frowned and muttered in a low voice, "Why is this girl's fate so strange? This is going to be... heaven-defying, killing the emperor."
