Chapter 795 Tragedy Occurs
Chapter 795 Tragedy Occurs
Chapter 795
Kuai Manzhou held a pitch-black ghost nail in his palm, which emitted a foul stench. Many shredded strips of cloth were tied to the nail, and the strips swayed like a bunch of flowers as they turned.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Fusheng couldn't help but pull Kuai Manzhou into a tight embrace.
The two are connected by a bloodline, and their shrines stand side by side.
Kuai Manzhou's gaze was calm and unwavering. The moment Zhao Fusheng embraced her, she did not struggle or twist, nor did she hug him back affectionately as before.
Although Kuai Manzhou narrowly escaped death in this great battle, the near resurrection of the vengeful ghost caused her immense harm.
She seemed to have lost more of her 'human' characteristics, and her emotions began to grow cold.
The special 'flower' made from 'coffin nails' that Kuai Manzhou held in her hand was made by Zhao Fusheng and given to Zhuang Si Niangzi by him when they were in Kuailiang Village.
This ghost flower fell into Kuai Manzhou's hands, which meant that Kuai Manzhou was almost going to inherit Zhuang Si Niangzi's power—and even transform into a ghost.
Zhao Fusheng lowered his eyelids, concealing his inner emotions.
"This time, Wan'an County has finally rid itself of a major scourge—"
Silence fell over the ghost car, but Zhao Fusheng forced himself to remain calm and said in a composed tone:
"Paper Doll Zhang has completely gone into hiding. With such a menace gone, the Demon Suppression Division is now in my hands, making any future changes or other matters much easier to handle."
Seeing that everyone looked dazed and their eyes moved very slowly, she continued:
"After this matter is settled, I will need your help."
As soon as these words were spoken, the Fan brothers and Chen Duozi both reacted:
"Sir, please speak."
The three of them turned around at the same time, and a cloud of blood mist enveloped them, making them look more like ghosts than humans.
Zhao Fusheng's heart sank, but he still said:
"Now that the world is in ruins and needs to be rebuilt, I plan for everyone to rest for a few days. After that, I will make some items to ward off evil spirits and distribute them to all parts of the world."
"At the same time, the gates of hell opened wide last night, and some vengeful ghosts scattered throughout the Han Dynasty. If you have any free time recently, please help me capture these ghosts and bring them back to the ghost realm." As soon as she finished speaking, Er Fan and Chen Duozi nodded.
Xu Yu placed his hands on her legs and looked up at her.
“Fusheng, I can help too.”
She is blind, but her condition is relatively more stable than others.
Zhao Fusheng, suppressing his heartache, patted her head and responded:
"it is good."
As they were talking, the Night Wanderer traversed the streets and rushed straight into the Demon Suppression Division of Wan'an County.
As dawn broke, the people of the Demon Suppression Division in Wan'an County had already woken up.
The commotion last night was huge; no one in the county could sleep.
As dawn broke, Ding Datong, along with the few surviving envoys from the capital, was calming down the members of the Demon Suppression Division.
A woman's shrill cry rang out:
“Lord Ding, we are old friends from Changping County. Back then, our Lu family went to the capital with you. We were fortunate enough to be favored by Lord Zhao and traveled with you. But now that so much time has passed, my daughter has already repaid the debt of gratitude she owes.”
Upon hearing the crying, Chen Duozi's expression, which had been stiff, changed.
A look of struggle appeared in her eyes, and her misty eyes instantly brightened considerably.
"Sir, it's...it's my mother—"
The person speaking was Chen's mother.
“Lord Ding, my daughter is now a wife and mother. She doesn’t come home anymore, and we have no idea what she does or what she’s up to all day. My grandson, Pan’er, hasn’t seen his mother in a long time. A woman like that—”
As Chen's mother spoke, she felt particularly indignant.
Ding Datong was pulled along by her and was very unhappy.
In the past, when he was a general in Changping County, someone like Chen's mother wouldn't even have the right to appear before him or speak to him.
Now, Chen Duozi has mastered the art of controlling ghosts and possesses extraordinary strength.
In Wuqing County, he had personally witnessed Chen Duozi's strength. This woman was no longer comparable to before, which made Ding Datong both fearful and apprehensive.
Therefore, he showed unusual patience when facing Chen's mother.
Hearing Chen's mother scold her daughter, he felt both contempt and helplessness.
This woman is very short-sighted.
She owes her current status entirely to Chen Duozi, but this woman is completely oblivious to it, and even wants to take her daughter back to the Lu family to spend the rest of her life around the stove and pots.
Ding Datong forced a smile, suppressing his disgust:
"Grandma Chen—"
As soon as he uttered the words, Ding Datong felt a chilling ghostly aura.
This murderous aura was very familiar, and he involuntarily let out a low growl:
"Night Wanderer!"
Ding Datong was very familiar with Zhao Fusheng's night-wandering demonic aura. As soon as he sensed it, he immediately shouted:
"The master is back! The master is back!"
Ding Datong's shout seemed to sweep away the gloom that had been hanging over the Demon Suppression Division of Wan'an County.
Everyone's expression brightened, and hope shone in their eyes.
Even Chen's mother, who had been nagging incessantly, stopped complaining and instinctively turned to look towards the gate.
Ding Datong's eyes lit up, and a look of joy appeared on his face:
"Open the door, open the door! The adults are back—Wan'an County is safe!"
"Wan'an County is safe!"
"Wan'an County is safe!"
Everyone shouted in unison, spreading the news quickly.
Before long, faint exclamations could be heard from within the county.
"Wan'an County is safe now!"
"It's safe now!"
At the same time, Wu Shaochun, who was visiting the kitchens of thousands of households in Wan'an County, heard the exclamation. He couldn't help but look up, and when he heard the news that it was 'safe,' his eyes lit up, and the fatigue from a busy night vanished.
……
At this moment, inside the Demon Suppression Division of Wan'an County, as soon as Ding Datong finished speaking, the Ghost Chariot appeared in the central courtyard.
When the car stopped, Chen's mother was startled by what she saw.
"ghost--"
Even though she was not very knowledgeable, she knew that the ghost chariot driven by a fierce ghost in a green robe that appeared out of nowhere was an evil spirit.
Fortunately, she had been traveling with Zhao Fusheng and had witnessed the ghost case, so she didn't lose her composure too much.
But as soon as the shout rang out, Ding Datong could no longer hide his displeasure and rebuked him:
“This is a god! A spirit or deity worshipped by the adults.”
Upon being shouted at, Chen's mother immediately nodded and then said:
"My family has many children—"
Just then, the carriage came to a stop.
The carriage door opened, and Zhao Fusheng was the first to jump off.
Upon seeing Zhao Fusheng, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, finally feeling a huge weight lifted from their hearts.
"Sir, my family has many children—"
Before anyone else could speak, Chen's mother spoke first.
Chen Laizi, following behind his mother, tugged at her arm upon hearing this:
"mother--"
She was like an invisible person.
After her husband died, she returned home as a widow and lived with her mother in the Lu family mansion. From a young age, she was cautious in her words and actions and rarely made a sound.
Chen Duozi used to be in a similar situation to her, but in the past year or so, Chen Laizi could also see that her sister was very different from before.
Even now, her mother still casually scolds Chen Duozi in public, just like she used to scold her daughter.
Thinking of this, Chen Laizi felt uneasy and called out again:
"mother--"
After being reminded by her daughter, Chen's mother's anxious mood subsided.
But after Zhao Fusheng got out of the car, the two children, Er Fan, and Chen Duozi also got out of the car one after another.
Chen Duozi's face was deathly pale, and her lips had lost all color. Her eyes were very dark, with an eerie blackness.
A chill ran down Chen's spine.
She suddenly felt that some things were out of her control. Her daughter was now a stranger and had a certain authority, as if she was no longer the woman she used to be able to manipulate and control.
At this moment, Chen's mother's fear of her daughter losing control took over, even overriding the instinctive horror she felt the instant she saw Chen Duozi.
"You still know how to come back!"
Chen's mother shouted loudly and stomped her foot forcefully.
She was gentle and kind when she spoke to people—especially men, in whom she always behaved politely.
However, when disciplining his daughter, he became quite aggressive and sharp.
Lu Yuhe, holding his son's hand, stood at a distance in the hall.
Zhao Fusheng didn't have a deep impression of him. He was old and seemed to be a kind old man who didn't talk much.
He remained silent, listening only to his mother-in-law scolding his wife.
"Look at your age! You're a 37-year-old woman with a family, a husband, and a son, yet you're always so ill-mannered, running around with others. What kind of behavior is that?"
Chen's mother looked at her daughter and shouted at her.
Chen Duozi met her gaze calmly.
One is gradually growing old, while the other is in the prime of life.
Chen Duozi was taller, while his mother was shorter; one even had to look up to talk to her.
Chen Duozi's memory began to become disordered, and for some reason, she felt that she was about to lose control.
Beneath the ground, shadows began to writhe, and red mist and black gas mingled, escaping from Chen Duozi's body.
Chen's mother was not yet aware of the seriousness of the problem.
She was extremely anxious and caught in her own emotional turmoil.
She was heartbroken by her daughter's pale face—she had heard that there had been a ghost last night, and the situation was very serious. She wondered if Chen Duozi had encountered a ghost, and if so, whether her life was in danger.
At the same time, she was dissatisfied with her daughter's unconventional behavior.
Since ancient times, when have women ever shown their faces in public like men?
With her limited perspective and understanding, she couldn't see into the world outside a woman's 'safe zone,' so she insisted on pulling her daughter into an environment she was familiar with.
Therefore, her heartache, dissatisfaction, and lack of security manifested as verbal reprimands towards her daughter:
"A woman who doesn't know how to be a good wife and mother has failed in her duty. She has an elderly mother at home and shouldn't travel far, yet you stay out all night, mingling with men and women—"
Zhao Fusheng had already realized that something was wrong.
The shrine belonging to Chen Duozi suddenly began to collapse, and she immediately realized that Chen's mother's words had influenced Chen Duozi.
"Shut up!"
She shouted angrily, then glared at Ding Datong with a livid face:
"What are you good for? This old woman is yelling and screaming, why don't you just send her back to her room?!"
Ding Datong felt wronged after being reprimanded for no reason.
But now the Demon Suppression Division was filled with eerie ghostly energy, and he had a bad feeling, so he immediately captured Chen's mother:
"Grandma, please say less."
"Chen Duozi, you are immoral and disgraceful. You are 37 years old and have only left the Lu family with one male heir. You have failed both your father's wise teachings and the ancestors of the Lu family—"
When Chen's mother was grabbed, she became even more energetic:
"You should kneel before the ancestral tablets of the Lu family to reflect on your actions."
She used to discipline her daughter in the same way.
Once she said those words, Chen Duozi, no matter how much more he wanted to say, had no choice but to swallow it back.
But as soon as she finished speaking, the scene fell into a deathly silence.
Under normal circumstances, Chen Duozi is emotionally stable and can understand her mother's complex feelings.
However, after a fierce battle last night, she was already on the verge of the vengeful ghost's resurgence. At this moment, stimulated by Chen's mother's words, the vengeful ghost's backlash immediately gained the upper hand.
Chen Duozi stared intently at his mother:
"How many children will you be blessed with?"
"Many children, many blessings—" For some reason, Chen's mother felt a chill run down her spine from her gaze and immediately responded.
The situation wasn't quite right. Zhao Fusheng glanced at the two Fans:
"Big and small Fan, take Duozi back to his room to rest—"
The two Fans immediately stepped forward and pressed down on Chen Duozi's shoulders from both sides:
"Madam Chen, the master said—"
"Many children naturally bring many blessings. Why didn't Mother give birth to a son back then?"
This was the first time in Chen Duozi's life that he had ever talked back to his mother.
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen's mother's face instantly lost all color.
Chen Laizi supported her swaying mother. She looked at her sister in surprise, who dared to provoke her mother and directly attack her mother's soft spot, as if she could not believe her ears.
"Many children bring many blessings. Mother, do you want a son?"
Chen Duozi's pupils dilated rapidly. As Er Fan pressed down on her body, he felt her body grow cold at an incredibly fast speed.
The human side of her began to disappear rapidly.
The dark side that had been suppressed in Chen Duozi's heart could no longer be controlled and erupted like a volcano.
This hatred is extremely strong.
She had been hiding since childhood, breaking free from the shackles of reason, and even the door god's brand could not stop her.
From childhood to adulthood, Chen Duozi suffered unfair treatment because of her gender, the shackles imposed on her by her mother, her life experiences, her mother's suppression and cautiousness, all of which erupted in this instant, causing her to completely lose—or even not want to control—herself at all.
She was on the verge of life and death, and the consequences of this loss of control caused her demonic nature to overwhelm her humanity.
"Pray to me, not to the gods! I will grant you many children and much happiness!"
The moment the words left his mouth, a shadow swiftly crept into Chen's mother's womb.
Just moments before, Chen's mother had been cursing and swearing, and was now completely astonished by her daughter's actions. She immediately fell silent.
She was destined to die at that moment.
The old woman's belly grew rapidly, and the demonic fetus burst out, its blood mixed with bits of intestines and flesh, scattering all over the ground.
All of this happened so fast that Chen's mother hadn't even felt the pain yet.
A look of surprise froze on her pale face, and her eyes lost their luster.
At the moment of his mother's death, Chen Duozi felt as if he had fulfilled his lifelong wish.
In an instant, she too was revived by the vengeful ghost.
The ghost fetus jumped out of Chen's mother's womb and returned to Chen Duozi's arms, where she held it in her arms like a baby.
At the same moment, her tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and the corners of her downturned mouth turned up slightly, revealing a faint smile.
The demonic aura within the Demon Suppression Division is extremely strong.
Zhao Fusheng's Investiture of the Gods list immediately sent a reminder.
The tragedy happened quickly, all in the blink of an eye. The conversation between the mother and daughter turned into an irreparable regret.
Zhao Fusheng acted decisively, unsealing the divine positions and bestowing new titles upon the deities.
The Investiture of the Gods prompts: Should we bestow the title of god upon the great demon?
Yes!
As soon as Zhao Fusheng had this thought, the spirit command quickly sketched out the form.
The Investiture of the Gods hints: She was born into a scholarly family, but her father was a down-on-his-luck student who died young.
She had studied poetry and literature for several years, but she could not escape the constraints of womanhood.
In her early years, she aspired to be a good wife and mother, but later her mindset changed drastically. She wanted to save the world and use her talents to do things that many women could not, thus earning respect and admiration.
Her mother was the one who gave her birth and raised her, but she also left her with the marks of pain and shadow.
When she breaks free from her constraints, she will transcend the ordinary and become a special kind of deity!
Please bestow a name upon the spirits.
