" A what? Relic?" Fang Yanli dropped the book on the floor and wiped her hands on the ghostly remnants of her clothes. " what do you mean that it is a relic? And more importantly, why didn't you tell me that it was a relic of those demonic cultivators who knows where it might have been?"
She shuddered as she wiped her hands on her clothes again and again causing Song Yan to feel amused. " Since it's a relic, I am pretty sure that they might have been keeping it safely then throwing it around, you might not have noticed but the condemned soul was keeping that relic in its breast pocket that was the closest to his heart. It pretty much signifies its importance to them."
She picked up the book and wiped it casually before throwing it back in her ring. "It's not much different from all the traces of the dark spirit cultivators that we found when I was still a ghost, it's the same thing over again about how going in the embrace of Demons and shedding the path of light will bring you to glory and what not, pretty much the same mind washing mumbo jumbo that they used to tell their followers, but since it's intact its a lot more detailed than that evidence that we found back then and it only bamboozles me to the point of oblivion that how can someone even come up with the idea of sacrificing human lives, to cultivate demons and vengeful spirits for their selfishness. It is like they just want to throw the world on a pyre and watch it burn."
Song Yan shook her head as she got in her bed and patted Fu Chen who have fallen asleep after finishing his dinner, it was a family rule of the Song family to eat before the sun sets. Of course, it had nothing to do with any supernatural phenomena, it was just a normal thing that aids in quick digestion as well as a fit and healthy body.
" Anyway, it will be better for us to pay attention to what's happening around us," said Song Yan as she narrowed her eyes and with a cold glint looked outside the window towards the rising moon. " Because after tonight many Dark cultivators will try to look for us."
In the Au family.
Au Lisha was sitting in the living room, as she tried to suppress her anxiousness and worry. She rubbed her hands and stood up from the sofa before heading to the threshold of her house and peeking out of the peephole. Seeing that no one was there, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at her father who was nursing his forehead, she hurriedly strode to her father and murmured, " Why isn't she here yet? It's been so long, dad… why don't you call and ask her to come as soon as she can, I am afraid that the talisman she gave is losing its effectiveness."
" I have called her just ten minutes ago and she said that she is on her way. What's the point of you being so anxious? Since she has said that she will treat our little Mei, then I trust her words, she will definitely treat her. Now sit down and wait." Old man Au looked at his daughter and shook his head before sighing. " This might not have happened if you kept a proper eye on that man and took a good look at what he was doing with little Mei when she told you that there was something wrong with him and the pastries that he was feeding her, like that young lady said, its has manifested like an untreated wound and now it will take some time to recover, maybe if you hadn't trusted that man with you eyes closed then our little Mei wouldn't be suffering so much."
" I know that I was in the wrong dad, I can't be any more guilty than I am but what are we supposed to do now? Mei is already unconscious, if Madam Fu doesn't arrive anytime soon then I am afraid that I will die out of worry," said Au Lisha as she fretfully looked at the door.
Old mad Au pulled her down and comforted her. " Okay, Okay, don't say such words, on such an occasion. Do you think that I am any less worried about little Mei? I am just as worried about her but we have to be patient because apart from this we have no other choice you see?" His stupid daughter was making him nervous too and he was already too old and could no longer take such excitement at his age. Little Mei was his granddaughter too and he naturally loved her a lot, he too felt like he was sitting on pins and needles but this was something that was completely out of his hands and he couldn't do anything about it.
It wasn't like he could rush out of the house and look for Song Yan with this old body of his.
Just as the two of them started to feel like they could no longer wait, the doorbell rang and Old man Au hurriedly jumped to his feet before running and scampering over to the threshold. He could no longer hold still for Song Yan to treat his granddaughter and thus, with a happy smile he pulled open the door, however just as he glanced at who was standing outside the door, his smile fell and he unhappily looked at the man before he raised his hand and angrily slapped the visitor. " How dare you come back, huh!?"
