However, it really was unreasonable. There was not much difference between Bai Wei and the two red-clothed ghosts and so the strength of his side suddenly tripled. Shang Yue was beaten back to the point where she had to keep retreating, step by step.

Seeing this, An Rugu quickly took out the exorcism talisman from her pocket and threw it towards the two evil spirits.

The yellow talisman that was specially crafted to ward off evil spirits touched the ghosts—the effect was just like volcanic lava burning through skin and flesh. Traces of green smoke rose upward from contact.

The two fierce ghosts let out painful screams and were frozen in place. The blackened color of their souls became more and more transparent, as if they were extremely injured.

Bai Wei: “???”

When Bai Wei saw this, he realized something was not quite right. He couldn’t see through the depths of this person but she could immobilize two ghosts at the same time…

She was actually stronger than Shang Yue!

But where there was life, there was hope.

He must bend and stretch with the circumstances, and so he took a last lingering look at Fang Shangshan—a look that was full of nostalgia—then concealed his figure, preparing to leave quietly while they were not paying attention.

However, at this moment, a strange woman suddenly ran in from the door, with the speed of an arrow released from a bow. Her eyes were red, and she suddenly stretched out her hands, screaming and grabbing Bai Wei’s neck.

“I didn’t expect you to be hiding here!”

She was a human being, but the evil aura around her body was actually deeper than that of a ghost. For a moment, Bai Wei was convinced that he had seen an evil ghost more terrifying than him.

When he saw the woman’s appearance clearly, Bai Wei took a breath of cold air, showed a rare look of fear, and fell limply to the ground, “Fang… Fang Ruoshui…”

When Fang Shangshan saw her sister arrive, she quickly walked out from the side and hurried to her sister. She broke down, crying, “Ruoshui, you are finally here! I have been waiting for you for many years.”

Fang Ruoshui paused, her restraint on Bai Wei loosened, and she looked up at Fang Shangshan blankly. She had sensed Fang Shangshan’s presence which was how she was able to find this location, and, thus, she was prepared to see her.

However, she became timid this close to her goal and could only open her mouth and said awkwardly, “Sister.”

Two identical twin sisters stared at each other, one cheerful and generous, the other silent and reserved.

Fang Shangshan couldn’t spare any more attention to Bai Wei lying on the ground. She immediately hugged her sister, whom she hadn’t seen for a long time, and cried bitterly, “Being sealed inside was such a terrible thing, I could not live yet I couldn’t die. I could only continue to think of you to keep from dissipating.”

Fang Ruoshui raised her right hand, hesitated, and finally hugged Fang Shangshan too. There was a wealth of deep longing hidden in her quiet tone, “I… I miss you too.”

Her twin sister was like half of her body. Ever since her sister disappeared, she had been thinking about her every moment of every day, from the moment she opened her eyes in the morning to the moment she closed them at night.

Bai Wei finally realized that Fang Ruoshui had relaxed her restraint on him and her mind had wandered away.

His fear of Fang Ruoshui was so deep that he had ben controlled earlier by the other party without any witchcraft, and he almost forgot that he was a ghost.

The nails on his right hand suddenly grew longer, and while Fang Ruoshui was distracted because of her sister, he suddenly reached for Fang Ruoshui.

Under normal circumstances, Fang Ruoshui would have definitely fought back immediately. However, the appearance of the sister she had been looking for for many years distracted her, and her defense awareness was greatly reduced.

Just as Bai Wei’s claws were about to pierce Fang Ruoshui’s body, An Rugu suddenly drew a talisman in the air. With a push of her right hand, a shadow appeared out of thin air and violently struck Bai Wei’s hand.

This was a talisman drawn in the void without cinnabar and yellow paper. It was something that could only be achieved after reaching the pinnacle of talisman cultivation—having the talisman directly in your heart.

“Ahhhhh!!!”

Bai Wei screamed out in pain.

Fang Ruoshui looked around and realized that the person had saved her, and a hint of complicated emotion flashed in her eyes.

Then she let go of her sister, looked down at the evil ghost on the ground, and with a clear understanding in her heart, she asked in a calm tone, “He was the one who killed you and then sealed you, right?”

Hot tears flowed from Fang Shangshan’s eyes, and she cried as if she had found her sole support in this world, “I saw human body parts in his collection room, with code names on them. It turned out that he was killing men and women to put them in his collection. I wanted to call the police, but he suddenly came back and discovered me. I cried and asked him to surrender, but he was unwilling and killed me. Then he cremated my body.

“My ashes were placed in an urn, and the urn he gave you contained fake ashes. ”

There was a flash of realization in Fang Ruoshui’s eyes: no wonder she couldn’t find her sister’s soul through the urn no matter how desperately she tried. It turned out to be like this.

She quietly looked at Bai Wei lying on the ground, “Why did you do this?”

Why did he do this to her sister whom she treasured so much?

An Rugu, Shang Yue, and Fang Ruoshui were all around, each one more difficult to mess with than the other.

Bai Wei cradled his hand that was half burned off by An Rugu. He already knew that the situation was not going well, so he simply threw away his elegant mask and laughed and laughed, his rationality ebbing away, until tears began flowing from the corners of his eyes.

“I didn’t want to kill her. Why did she not accept my other side?”

Fang Ruoshui said quietly, “Why do you think she would accept the you who have killed people?”

The smile on Bai Wei’s face froze.

Yes, he was moved by Fang Shangshan’s kindness. The cat pretending to be a mouse fell in love with a real mouse, but the mouse couldn’t accept the cat for being a cat. If Fang Shangshan’s kindness was the kind that could be stained, he also wouldn’t like it.

From the moment he fell in love with her, they were destined to one day turn against each other.

How utterly ridiculous.
