"I know that nothing I say now may be able to make up for my debt to you. After all this is over, I will give you my life as compensation, how about it?" Yan Jun's words instantly solidified the resentment in Zhang Hao's heart, and his expression returned to calm.

He suddenly stopped blaming the people in front of him, because perhaps they were all equally pitiful people.

What to do next? How to move on? How to get out of this?
Zhang Hao covered his head and sneered. It took him a long time to calm down.

"You really think highly of me, letting me do this kind of thing. Do you really think I wouldn't be afraid at all about this kind of thing?" There was a hint of helplessness and self-mockery in Zhang Hao's tone.

When Yan Jun saw that Zhang Hao had misunderstood, he hurried to explain, but Zhang Hao raised his hand to stop him.

"I know what you want to say. You want to say that you don't think that way. You want to say that everyone is innocent in this matter, just with different positions. You want to say that we can go back to the past, but we have to solve the problem at hand first, right?" Zhang Hao's rapid-fire questions left Yan Jun speechless.

Yan Jun felt that Zhang Hao in front of him became a little strange.

"Let me ask you, before I became involved with your underworld, was I an ordinary person?" Zhang Hao's voice trembled a little.

"Yes, although you have some abilities, you are indeed an ordinary person." Yan Jun replied.

"Then why should an ordinary person like me be dragged into various things by you again and again?" Zhang Hao's emotions collapsed. He covered his head with his hands and put his hands in his hair, pulling it tightly, as if he wanted to keep his mind calm in this way.

"What exactly should I do to make you let me go? What exactly should I do to..." Zhang Hao's voice was full of helplessness.

Seeing that he could not persuade her, Yan Jun could only say: "Then how about giving you another chance and letting you try again?"

Zhang Hao looked up when he heard this, his eyes full of confusion.

Do it again? Is this a regret medicine? Or does Yan Jun want to use the power of time travel to let himself go back to the past and make a new choice?

But if we really go back to the past, the Demon Lord will still appear, because that was the seed planted four thousand years ago.

At that time, would I, an ordinary person, dare to step forward and solve these problems? Perhaps not. Perhaps only when the disaster befell me would I regret not killing the Demon Lord directly.

"Go back and calm down first. Come to me anytime when you've made up your mind. When I say start over again, I don't mean in this world... but in your original world." Yan Jun's words made Zhang Hao look up suddenly.

But Lord Yan didn't seem to intend to explain anything further. He waved his hand lightly, and Zhang Hao felt himself blown away by a huge force.

-

"Zhang Hao, wake up quickly, it's time for class!" A lively male voice woke Zhang Hao up, and his body was being shaken.

Zhang Hao slowly opened his eyes and was stunned for a long time after seeing the person in front of him before he reacted.

Why is it him? This was his roommate in college, and they were very close. Since he went to the other world, this person has gradually faded from his memory. But it is undeniable that he often thinks of this person in his heart, after all, he is one of the few good friends he has.

"What are you still waiting for? Hurry up, we really have to leave!" The roommate helped pack the bag and pulled the dazed Zhang Hao out of the dormitory.

The familiar dormitory, campus, classmates and teachers...all of this was so familiar to Zhang Hao, but he couldn't believe it and felt that he might be dreaming.

Yes, I must be dreaming.

He realized that all this should not have happened. He no longer belonged to this world, and he still had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

When the teacher asked Zhang Hao a question, he stood up suddenly, his heart in a panic. For the first time in his life, he was at a loss, as if he couldn't find his position.

He is indeed a student, but his inner soul has long surpassed this identity. During this period, Zhang Hao witnessed life and death, witnessed many crimes, and became more aware of the sense of mission he shoulders.

However, can he really be content to sit in this warm classroom and be an ordinary person? Is this really the ending he desires?
Zhang Hao stared at the textbook with his head down, breathing rapidly. He knew in his heart that he couldn't continue to be confused like this, but for now, he had no choice but to stay calm.

The teacher and roommate noticed his abnormality and asked him about it with concern. Other students also turned around to look at him curiously. When Zhang Hao felt those eyes focused on him, he suddenly felt an unspeakable fear in his heart.

That's right, it was fear. Peaceful days had lasted too long, and he had forgotten how to be a qualified ordinary person. What was even more ridiculous was that his mind was still echoing the experiences in the inn, those corpses, and those bloody scenes.

Would a normal college student think about these things every day? Of course not. He is no longer that ordinary college student. He is the owner of the Yin Yang Inn, the one who shoulders the important task of peace between the Yin and Yang worlds!

Suddenly, Zhang Hao rushed out recklessly, leaving everyone baffled. His roommates and teachers chased after him and asked him questions, but he ignored them and just ran faster and faster, leaving everything behind. An indescribable sense of relief surged in his heart.

Yes, he should have jumped out of this comfort zone a long time ago. He always thought that he was a person from another world, but everything he experienced in that world far exceeded this fear. He should bravely take a step forward, find the truth, shoulder the responsibility, and let those two-faced gods see how powerful he is to dare to come here!

A flash of white light flashed before his eyes, and when Zhang Hao opened his eyes again, he found himself in the bedroom of the inn. This was the place he was familiar with, and this was what he wanted.

Zhang Hao hugged the pillow, his eyes reddened, and an inexplicable feeling welled up in his heart, almost wanting to cry. Han Shan heard the movement in the bedroom and knocked on the door in confusion, but there was no response after waiting for a long time. He was too worried, so he broke in by himself.

When Han Shan saw Zhang Hao sitting on the bed crying with joy, he was also stunned and didn't know how to react. Zhang Hao waved to Han Shan and asked him to come over. Han Shan walked over obediently, and the next moment he was hugged tightly in Zhang Hao's arms.

Han San was completely confused and stammered, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"I just suddenly feel that it's so good to have you by my side. I missed you so much." Zhang Hao said with emotion. Han Shan was a little confused. He just came back last night, why is his reaction now as if they have been separated for hundreds of years? He hugged Zhang Hao back in surprise and asked, "Why are you saying this suddenly? Did you have a nightmare? You look very unwell."

"Yes, I had a nightmare, a nightmare that I almost couldn't wake up from. Now that I see you again, I really feel like I'm about to collapse. Fortunately, I woke up." Only then did Zhang Hao understand where this feeling of surviving a disaster came from.

Han Shan didn't say much, just nodded and let Zhang Hao hold her. When Zhang Hao went downstairs, he found that everyone in the inn looked a little serious.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Hao asked.

"The Demon Lord seems to have started to act. Zhang Qilin has not been found yet. What should we do about this matter?" Hao Xie was always the most sober one, but at this moment he also seemed a little powerless.

Zhang Hao didn't know how to answer. He thought for a moment and said, "Zhang Qilin's disappearance is likely related to the Demon Lord. I have been appointed and must handle this matter. Don't worry, I will find Zhang Qilin no matter what. I want to see him alive or dead. Zhang Qilin must be alive."

While Zhang Hao was searching for Zhang Qiling, the inn received a new mission. This time, the people who came to look for him were no longer ordinary travelers, but people from various sects.

The Demon Lord was rampant, invading all the major sects, devouring all the disciples with spiritual power. Many people's bodies were incomplete, and they needed the help of the corpse-driving inn to take the bodies away. Not only were the souls of these corpses devoured, but even their bodies were eaten away, leaving behind strong resentment. Just like the bodies of the hundreds of villagers whose essence was sucked away by the Demon Lord before, it was difficult to transport them away, so they could only ask Zhang Hao for help.

Zhang Hao knew that he also had a responsibility in this matter, so he only charged a very small fee, almost like helping for free. However, free means more people will come. At the beginning, there were only a few sects, but soon there were more and more.

If the bodies were the same as before, Zhang Hao and his team might be able to handle it. After all, not only Zhang Hao, but everyone else in the store has also improved their abilities, so it's not a big deal for one person to handle a few bodies. But what gave Zhang Hao a headache was that some of the bodies were in pieces.

After the demon lord devoured the corpse, the arms might be here and the body there. If you want to take the corpse away, you have to at least keep them as intact as possible. This requires a unique secret skill - corpse sewing. Corpse sewing is not just about sewing the corpse with needle and thread, but it is about sewing up the remaining meridians in the body, giving the corpse an illusion that it is still fine, so that the resentment can be dissipated to a certain extent.

If other people could help with this job, it would be fine. But other people had already learned the art of corpse-driving for a long time, and it would be too difficult to ask them to learn a new skill, and it would greatly affect their efficiency. Therefore, Zhang Hao could only take on this job alone.

As always, Zhang Hao's rest time became less and less, he could only sleep three or four hours a day, and he lost weight at a visible speed. Everyone in the inn advised him to get enough rest, and Zhang Hao nodded in agreement every time, but in fact, he worked harder than anyone else.

As the second in command of the inn, Hao Xie knew he had to take action when he saw Zhang Hao like this. So, he asked Ru Feng to go out and line up the waiting sects, telling them when they would deal with the previous sect's affairs before they would deal with the next sect, and told them not to rush.

Hao Xie thought that as long as Zhang Hao could not see the faces of these sect clients, he would not be so anxious and would know how to give himself a break. However, he did not expect that after doing so, Zhang Hao became even more desperate than before, and did not want to let them wait any longer.

Hao Xie knew that he couldn't persuade Zhang Hao, so he simply gave up. He thought that since the workload would not be reduced, he could let more people work. So, he flipped through the address book for a long time, and finally saw a name, and laughed softly.

"If it were you, you would come to help, right?"

-

Zhang Hao suddenly opened his eyes and found that it was already 6 o'clock in the morning.

"Damn it, I slept for six hours..."

I must work a little longer today to make up for the extra hours of sleep. Zhang Hao was about to get up to wash his face when he saw a woman walking in from the door.

The woman was wearing a jacket and a cap, and her face was covered by a large black mask, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes. She looked around the lobby of the inn and finally landed on Hao Xie, who was sleeping on the sofa in the corner.

Following her gaze, Zhang Hao asked, "Which sect are you from?"

"Nine gates."

Zhang Hao was stunned when he heard this. Of course he knew about the Nine Gates, but he didn't expect that there were also Nine Gates in this world. And this woman seemed to be coming for Hao Xie. Could it be that something happened to the Nine Gates?
Just as Zhang Hao was about to ask, the woman turned her gaze to him, took off her mask and smiled.

"Hello, my name is Huo Xiuxiu, Hao Xie asked me to come and help you."

Huo Xiuxiu? Could it be the Huo Xiuxiu that Zhang Hao had thought of before?

"Hello, Miss Huo, what does Hao Xie want you to do for me?" Zhang Hao asked.

"You have to ask him. I was originally on a mission when he suddenly called and said that he needed my help. But he didn't say what specific help he could provide. It's up to you to arrange it." Huo Xiuxiu seemed to have a very easy-going personality. She put her luggage in the aisle and sat down on the sofa next to Hao Xie.

She pulled down the brim of her hat, yawned, and said incoherently, "I rushed here as soon as I got the call. Now I'm so sleepy. I'll take a nap first. I'm sorry I didn't have time to introduce myself properly." Zhang Hao was stunned for a long time before he gently shook his head.

"It's okay, just have a good rest."

Huo Xiuxiu slept until the afternoon before she opened her eyes. Hao Xie explained to Zhang Hao, "I called her last night and asked her to come over to help. Judging from the distance from her home to here, she probably bought a ticket and came here right after I hung up the phone."

"Why did you ask Miss Huo to come?"

"Xiuxiu's family is in the same business as mine, so she's not afraid of these things. And I think Xiuxiu is quite talented, so let her come and help us, maybe..."

"But I don't want to involve too many people now..." Zhang Hao's face was solemn, "You should know how terrible what we are going through now is. Anyone who comes here will be a responsibility I have to bear."

The situation is becoming more and more dangerous, and Zhang Hao really doesn't want too many people to take risks with him.

"Don't worry, I won't let Xiuxiu do any dangerous work. She will just be your assistant. This way, we can all concentrate on driving the corpses, one thing at a time. You can't do everything at once, and you can't finish everything in one go, right?" (End of this chapter)
