Liu Sanniang looked at Wei Shilai and said, “Wu Ju is stronger than me. I might not be able to discover what he did. If you want me to see what he did, I can give it a try.”

Wei Shilai felt relieved. The heavy feeling suddenly disappeared. He reached out his hand. “I do. I really do. Actually, I can’t remember what I said to Wu Ju that day.”

Liu Sanniang grabbed Wei Shilai’s wrist. This was the second time she was reading Wei Shilai.

Wei Shilai was very nervous and his mental defense was strong. Liu Sanniang could tell that this defense was built up by an external force that did not belong to Wei Shilai, but it had fused with Wei Shilai’s spiritual sense to prevent his mind from being invaded.

Liu Sanniang’s power was gentle, but this force still treated Liu Sanniang as a threat and began to turn into a sharp blade.

Wei Shilai could feel it. He felt alarmed and his body tensed up. Why was this happening? He trusted Liu Sanniang very much, but now, he felt extremely threatened.

Wei Shilai gritted his teeth. “Miss Liu, don’t hold back your power. I hate it the most when I am not in full control of myself. If I’m controlled by someone else, I’d rather die.”

At first, he was just suspicious. He did not think too much about it and only assumed that it was because he wanted to solve the case too much. However, when he was tossing and turning in bed at night, unable to sleep, he felt that it was strange. Even if he wanted to solve the case terribly, he would not neglect Liu Sanniang.

Over the past few days, every time he saw Liu Sanniang, he would feel a little strange and have countless thoughts in his mind. However, this had never happened before. Only then did he know that something was really wrong with him.

When Liu Sanniang heard Wei Shilai’s words, she did not hesitate and directly turned her power into blades to compete with that power.

Finally, the mental defense was broken down. Liu Sanniang’s power was like a dark cloud that devoured that power.

Liu Sanniang heaved a sigh of relief. After a while, she said, “Wu Ju seems to be able to bewitch people. From the first time you saw him, there was actually a force in you that belonged to him. That day, when you both entered the house, you didn’t say anything. You just looked into Wu Ju’s eyes and came out after a while.”

Wei Shilai said nervously, “Then what should I do?”

Liu Sanniang said, “I’ll just fuse that power with mine.”

Wu Ju’s power was black and evil, but she was the nemesis of all evil.

After Liu Sanniang retracted her hand, Wei Shilai let out a long sigh. “Thank you, Miss Liu. That strange feeling is gone.”

Facing Liu Sanniang, he did not feel guilty anymore.

Liu Sanniang said, “Sir, your willpower is very strong.”

Wei Shilai smiled. “It’s because I have an obsession with truth.”

It was precisely because of this obsession that he quickly sensed that something was wrong. If it were anyone else, they would not have noticed this invisible change at all.

Wei Shilai thought of Wu Ju and frowned. “Miss Liu, what should we do with this monk?”

Liu Sanniang said, “Sir, perhaps only by finding the survivors of Huanghu Village can we know the truth. Wu Ju is stronger than me. If he really wants to do evil, we can’t stop him. He asked me what karma is. These murder cases might be a karma.”

Wei Shilai was worried. “What kind of karma would result in so many people being killed?”

Liu Sanniang shook her head.

Wu Ju was an enigma. Chu Yan said that he was stenchy, but every time Liu Sanniang looked at him, she felt that he was kind-hearted. He was evil and good, both in one body. Liu Sanniang did not know how he did it. There were four murder cases, but the resentment was exorcized by Wu Ju. The remaining memories were all beautiful.

Wei Shilai looked at Liu Sanniang and said firmly, “No matter how difficult it is, we will get to the bottom of it.”

Liu Sanniang nodded.

When Wei Shilai and Liu Sanniang came out, Wu Ju had already returned from checking the murderers. After knowing that Wei Shilai was talking to Liu Sanniang alone, he waited for them to come out and said, “Sir, those people are still the same as before.”

Wei Shilai had already calmed down and nodded. “Thank you.”

Wu Xiao smiled faintly. “It’s nothing.”

The people from the government office did not feel any change in Wei Shilai, but Wu Ju did. He looked at Liu Sanniang and smiled again.

Liu Sanniang looked at Wu Ju and looked away. She was puzzled. Wu Ju seemed to be the murderer, but he took the initiative to work with them. Wasn’t he afraid that Wei Shilai would find out the truth?

At noon, a constable returned to the government office on a horse. As he ran into the government office, he panted and said, “S-Sir, we found out that five families moved out of Huanghu Village twenty years ago. There’s still one left. They built a house between Huanghu Village and Hujia Village. It belongs to Hujia Village now.”

Four out of five families had already been wiped out.

Wei Shilai immediately passed the order. “Quick, go to Hujia Village immediately. Bring the troops from the government office.”

They did not know what would happen tonight. They had to rush over and protect the last family.

The massacre must not happen again.

Liu Sanniang glanced at Wu Ju but his expression was calm as he followed them.

Liu Sanniang also walked out. When Chu Yan held her hand, she subconsciously froze. When he used a little more strength, Liu Sanniang panicked.

Chu Yan seemed to have read Liu Sanniang’s mind and smiled. “It’s gonna be a long journey. Let’s take our own carriage.”

Liu Sanniang wanted to refuse, but Chu Yan held her hand and did not let go. He grinned and said, “Sanniang, be a good girl.”

She was really annoyed. She had already seen his true colors. Why was he still pretending to be a lamb when he was in fact a wolf!

When Liu Sanniang left the government office, she realized that the carriage was already parked outside. Liu Sanniang had no choice but to get in.

While entering the carriage, Liu Sanniang gritted her teeth and muttered. “Damn it.”

At the thought that they would get married in the future, Liu Sanniang wanted to cry. How did she end up with him?

After a few hours of traveling, Liu Sanniang was sleepy and drifted into a slumber. She actually dreamed that she had turned into a little rabbit, and a wolf was staring at her with its ferocious eyes. She was extremely afraid.

The wolf said, “Don’t be afraid. I won’t eat you, but why do you smell so good?”
