Li Guanfeng looked at Liu Sanniang and wished that he could kill her.

He forced her to come over so that she could find a way to help him and Xiaowu, not break them up.

After listening to Liu Sanniang, Xiaowu looked at Li Guanfeng and seemed to have understood something. Her voice softened as she said, “Brother Li, have you always known about this?”

He always knew that after she left, he would fall in love with another woman, get married, and have children and grandchildren. With time passing, he would gradually heal and forget about her.

Xiaowu wanted to cry, but she couldn’t shed a tear.

Li Guanfeng looked lost and staggered back a few steps. He reached out, wanting to touch Xiaowu. However, his hand went straight through her body. His voice was filled with panic. “No, no. I won’t fall in love with anyone else. You are everything to me. There will never be anyone else. Xiaowu, trust me.”

Xiaowu stepped back a little and gave a smile that was worse than crying. She said, “I believe in you, Brother Li, but I also hope that you can forget me.”

Xiaowu turned into black smoke and returned to the bell.

Li Guanfeng staggered two steps. “Xiaowu, Xiaowu.”

Xiaowu did not respond. Li Guanfeng looked at Liu Sanniang angrily. “Do you really think I won’t kill your brother?”

Liu Sanniang looked at Li Guanfeng and said calmly, “I read her face just now. If she reincarnates, her next life will be very happy. Do you really want to destroy it?”

Li Guanfeng was suddenly stunned. He opened his mouth as if in disbelief. He slowly walked back to the table and sat down, covering his head with his hands.

After a long time, he thought that Liu Sanniang had left.

He looked up and mumbled to himself. “Yes, I want Xiaowu to be happy.”

How could he bear to let the girl, whom he had liked since he was young and who risked her life for him, suffer in hell?

Liu Sanniang told him, “Her happiness depends on you.”

Li Guanfeng put down his hands and looked at Liu Sanniang calmly. “You’re still here.”

It was already dark, but she still hadn’t left.

Liu Sanniang looked at Li Guanfeng and could tell that he had made up his mind.

Li Guanfeng asked. “If I don’t let her go, will she end up in hell? If we want to be together, do we have to kill?”

Without waiting for Liu Sanniang to answer, he answered himself. “Yes, we will. Killing is probably what that monk wants us to do eventually. How can killing one person be enough? After killing one person, I would probably feel that if I want Xiaowu to stay, more people will have to die. In order to keep her, I would arrest more people and sentence them all to death until I die.”

That was why he had started arresting people. In his heart, he had already judged everyone guilty and was ready to execute them.

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Before that, I’ll stop you and send her soul to reincarnate.”

Li Guanfeng looked at Liu Sanniang. He did not have doubt about Liu Sanniang’s ability to do so. Li Guanfeng said, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll make things difficult for your family? You are a powerful psychic, but can you fight the government?”

Liu Sanniang did not back down. “I’ll send her soul to reincarnate.”

Would she sit back and watch Li Guanfeng taking revenge on her family?

She would not. Perhaps she would also become a person ridden with sins. Then, another psychic would come and subdue her.

Even if she knew the ending, she would still do it.

Liu Sanniang looked at Li Guanfeng and her gaze landed on the bell in his hand. She said calmly, “I’m taking a bet. I’m betting that you can’t bear to see her go to hell.”

Li Guanfeng lowered his eyes. “Come and send Xiaowu away in three days.”

Liu Sanniang turned around and left. It was already dark outside. She could not help but smile. When she walked out of the government office, she muttered Li Guanfeng’s name.

Liu Sanniang looked ahead and saw Chu Yan. He smiled at her. Liu Sanniang walked over and Chu Yan held her hand. Liu Sanniang said, “Why are you here?”

Chu Yan said gently, “I’m worried about you.”

To him, every step Liu Sanniang took to re-cultivate to become an immortal was filled with danger. He couldn’t interfere too much, but he had to be by her side.

Liu Sanniang frowned. “Chu Yan, are you hiding something from me?”

Chu Yan said with a smile, “No.”

Liu Sanniang bit her lip and thought to herself. ‘Never mind if you want to tell me.’

After Chu Yan sent her home, he turned around and went back. Without needing Madam Wei to inquire, Liu Sanniang told Madam Wei and the others to relax and that Liu Dalang would come back home in a few days.

Madam Wei comforted Tang An. “Don’t worry. Everything is fine now.”

Tang An nodded.

Mr. Liu heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”

After dinner, Liu Sanniang washed up and went to bed.

Between good and evil, Li Guanfeng chose good not because he was kind, but because he could not bear to let Xiaowu be tainted by evil.

It was already late at night. Li Guanfeng leaned against the couch and touched the bell on his wrist. He said gently, “Xiaowu, how can I fall in love with someone else? You’re my everything.”

His heart ached. He had the intention to kill countless times, but he could not bring himself to do so, because he could not bear to let his beloved girl be tainted by sin.

The one he wanted to kill the most was that monk.

If not for that monk, he and Xiaowu wouldn’t be separated by Yin and Yang.

As Li Guanfeng closed his eyes, big drops of tears rolled down his face.

“Brother Li, what’s wrong. Do you not like me now?” A woman asked with a hint of worry in her voice.

Li Guanfeng looked at her in a daze. He smiled and reached out to gently touch the woman’s cheek. He said in a low voice, “Why are you still calling me Brother Li? Isn’t it time to change the way you address me?”

The woman’s face was as red as a ripe apple and her eyes were sparkling. Li Guanfeng continued with a smile. “It’s time to call me ‘husband’, Xiaowu.”

“Husband.”

Li Guanfeng felt that this ‘husband’ was the best thing he had ever heard in the world. For this ‘husband’, he was willing to do anything and pay any price without regrets. He held her beautiful face and gently kissed her forehead.
