Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Resurrected
But where the coffin lid had been, there now lay a body.
Su Yan stared and recognized the missing maid.
She glared at Aunt Lan, disguised as the Old Madam, clenching her fists so tightly she longed to strangle her to death!
She had killed another person!
Another living soul, and right under her watch!
“Xiao’er…”
...
The singing stopped, and Aunt Lan, her eyes gleaming with a smile, gracefully walked towards them.
Her steps were serene, her countenance gentle and kind, clad in a white gown like an immortal stepped out of a painting.
So perfect she seemed utterly inconceivable as a serial killer.
Chu Yuxiao remained still, watching her approach, and asked somberly,
“Why?”
Aunt Lan chuckled, twirling around to show off her appearance, and smilingly asked,
“Xiao’er, look, Mother has returned.
Mother has been resurrected. Are you not happy?”
A hint of astonishment flickered in Su Yan’s eyes. Had Aunt Lan gone mad?
Chu Yuxiao’s body tensed instantly, and he lowered his gaze, speaking deeply,
“Aunt, Mother is dead and will never come back.”
“Nonsense, am I not resurrected?”
“Aunt Lan, stop pretending; we know it’s you,” burst out Su Yan.
Aunt Lan’s gaze faltered, then she laughed,
“You don’t understand. I used to be Aunt Lan, but now I am Shuyu.
Our clan, after death, gathers essence for twenty years and drinks the blood of young girls for seven days to be reborn.
Today, I have finally been reborn. Xiao’er, we haven’t seen each other in twenty years. Aren’t you happy to see your mother?”
Su Yan’s eyes widened in shock. She grabbed Aunt Lan’s wrist and demanded angrily,
“Drink the blood of young girls for seven days? Now six have died, who is the seventh?!”
When had she killed another?
Last night, she had clearly never left Ciyun Hall…
Aunt Lan looked at her, merely giggling without answering.
“Tell me, who else have you killed!” Su Yan cried, her eyes reddening with anger.
