"What kind of formation is this? Could it be the Soul - Shifting Forbidden Technique?"
Feng Yunshu couldn't help but frown and look at Qingzhu beside her.
Qingzhu slowly nodded. "It is indeed this technique."
"The Soul - Shifting is an ancient forbidden technique. Where did you learn it from?! Do you know what will happen if there's the slightest deviation when activating this formation?"
Qingzhu's face was complex as he nodded again. "I'm naturally aware of all these."
Hearing this, A Yun nervously looked at Feng Yunshu. "Daoist nun, I wonder what exactly this consequence you're talking about is? I had no idea what consequences this formation would bring..."
As she spoke, A Yun turned to look at Qingzhu, her eyes extremely red. "You just told me to rest assured and that you would handle everything well, but you didn't mention what consequences this formation would bring..."
Qingzhu looked at A Yun, his eyes full of restraint, remorse, pity, and love. "It's all my fault. I was so wrong... If I had arrived earlier back then, how could you, A Yun, have suffered such humiliation..."
"No matter what the consequences are, I will definitely revive you! A Yun, I must make you come back to life. I want to give you a happy and fulfilling life!"
Feng Yunshu watched the two of them beside them. She couldn't help but think of Helan Yanting and remembered how she was when she mistakenly thought he had an accident. Didn't she also break into the Underworld again just to see him for the last time...
The matter of love has never had any right or wrong. It's just the obsession in people's hearts.
"Master, this Qingzhu is really being so reckless. In order to perform the Soul - Shifting Technique, he specially opened this brothel to attract women. Then he hypnotized these women to draw out the yin - cold qi in their bodies and gathered this yin - cold qi to activate the Soul - Shifting Technique."
Xiaoling also knew about the Soul - Shifting Technique, so she naturally understood why Qingzhu was doing all this.
"However, it's so difficult for him to activate the Soul - Shifting Technique with his current demon power. Such a dangerous forbidden technique will completely backfire on him. If there's a mistake, it will disrupt the order of the entire lower realm. By then, the Ghost Gate will open wide, and the Young Yama will probably cry..."
Feng Yunshu nodded. "You're right. With his current demon power, he's simply not strong enough to activate such a dangerous forbidden technique."
She looked up at Qingzhu, and the prejudice she had towards this person gradually faded. "Qingzhu, you don't need to waste your time and energy like this anymore. You know very well yourself that you simply can't activate the formation."
"Even if you don't mind being backfired on, the probability of success is very small, isn't it?"
Hearing Feng Yunshu's words, A Yun's face showed even more disbelief. She turned to look at Qingzhu. "Qingzhu, is what she said true? Will you really be backfired on?"
"No, please stop! Qingzhu, I'm already like this. How can I still dream of a happy life? Moreover, my parents and other relatives all died at the hands of the mountain bandits. The world is so big, but there's no longer a home for me..."
"No! You still have me, A Yun. As long as I have a breath left, I will definitely protect you and take good care of you!"
"Qingzhu! Stop this! I don't want to see you sacrifice yourself for me at all. I don't want to implicate anyone. Let me go. I think the best ending for me might be a bowl of Mengpo's Soup."
Qingzhu looked so sad that he seemed about to cry. His eyes were red. "But A Yun, what will I do if you leave... If I can no longer see you in the long years to come, how can I spend the rest of my life alone..."
"Qingzhu, your obsession is too deep. Continuing like this is not only not good for A Yun, but you will also be more deeply hurt yourself."
Feng Yunshu frowned. "The best solution now is for you to immediately stop activating the formation, stop all this, and close this brothel."
"Absolutely impossible!"
"Don't be so excited. Calm down." Feng Yunshu looked at Qingzhu. "Have you ever considered A Yun's feelings when doing all these things? I know you can't let her go and you're doing everything for her good, but have you thought about whether she wants to see you like this?"
"Just now, A Yun clearly said that she doesn't want to see you continue like this. She just wants a bowl of Mengpo's Soup to forget her past. Why are you still holding her back?"
As she spoke, Feng Yunshu took a few steps forward and looked at Qingzhu with a cold look in her eyes, as if she wanted to see through his heart.
"Ask yourself. By doing all this now, is it because you can't let go yourself or is it really for A Yun's good?"
"No, it's not! How could I be doing this for myself? I just want to stay with A Yun. I just want her to be safe and happy all her life!"
"But you were still one step too late, and you can't change what has already happened, can you?"
Obviously, every word of Feng Yunshu was like a sharp arrow piercing into Qingzhu's heart. As the saying goes, onlookers see clearly. Feng Yunshu hoped that Qingzhu could face everything in front of him more clearly.
"Let go, Qingzhu. Letting her leave peacefully is the last way to protect her."
Although she understood the truth and tried her best to make her voice sound calm, she still couldn't help choking when she said the last half - sentence.
It's easy for onlookers to say, but it's so difficult for the people involved to truly let go. If it were really that easy to let go, how could there be such an obsession?
A Yun looked at Qingzhu with tear - filled eyes and choked out, "Qingzhu, stop..."
Qingzhu's face became even more complex. His heart seemed to be struggling violently, and he fell into a long silence.
Just then, a black hole suddenly appeared in a corner of the floor in the room, and a black mist gradually rose. After the black mist dispersed, two more people appeared in the room.
Feng Yunshu was quite surprised to see the two people who suddenly appeared. "Black and White Impermanence? Why are you here?"
The two people who appeared were indeed Black and White Impermanence. They looked at Feng Yunshu and were also a bit surprised.
"Fellow Daoist Yunxi, why do we always run into you everywhere... People say that enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road, but we're not really enemies yet."
"I've been here all along. But why are you here?"
The eyes of Black and White Impermanence soon fell on A Yun beside them. They were holding a pair of iron chains in their hands. "Bold living soul, your lifespan has long been exhausted. Why are you still hiding in the mortal world? Hurry up and follow us to the Underworld to be judged by the Yama!"
A Yun was a bit panicked when she saw Black and White Impermanence like this. She subconsciously floated behind Qingzhu beside her. "Qingzhu, this..."
Qingzhu looked at the "aggressive" Black and White Impermanence with a cold face. There was a cold glint in his eyes. "If you want to take A Yun away, you can only step over my dead body!"
After saying that, Qingzhu began to gather his demon power and was about to take action.
"Wait!"
At this moment, Feng Yunshu stepped forward and raised her hand to stop both sides.
"Black and White Impermanence, your task for coming here should be to take this girl to the Underworld, right?"
Black and White Impermanence nodded. "What? Fellow Daoist Yunxi, you're not going to stop us from doing our duty, are you?"
Feng Yunshu shook her head. "Of course not. After all, I've had dealings with the Young Yama and we're acquainted. I know that your Underworld has performance evaluations every year. If you can't bring the person back, I'm afraid all your year - end bonus will be gone."
"Exactly! Fellow Daoist Yunxi, you won't believe it. My wife and I haven't received a year - end bonus for decades..."
