Zhao Gang's voice gradually drifted away in the upper part of the corridor, and everyone present felt a chill run down their spines.

This is absolutely terrifying to think about!

At that moment, Yang Guang returned to the Yu family's doorstep.

The security door was tightly closed.

The yellow yin-gathering talisman was firmly affixed to the center of the iron gate, without any trace of curling.

Yang Guang stepped forward, pinched one corner of the talisman with two fingers, and tore it off forcefully before letting out a sigh of relief.

The old squad leader should have finished saying goodbye by now, right?

As soon as you enter the living room, you can feel the bone-chilling cold air.

But that oppressive sense of despair has completely disappeared.

In front of the makeshift mourning hall, cobbled together from two old folding tables, the yellow paper in the brazier had been completely burned into grayish-black powder.

Xu Mingxiu and Yu Zixin sat on two plastic round stools next to them.

The two stopped crying.

Yu Chengguang's semi-transparent soul squatted opposite the brazier, his arms wrapped around his knees.

I heard the sound of the security door opening.

The family of three in the living room all turned to look at Yang Guang at the door.

Xu Mingxiu immediately stood up from the plastic stool, rubbed her hands vigorously on her trouser legs twice, strode over to Yang Guang, and bowed deeply to him at a ninety-degree angle.

Yang Guang was startled.

He quickly took half a step to the side and reached out to support Xu Mingxiu's arms, saying, "Sister-in-law, you mustn't."

Xu Mingxiu straightened up with the help of the force and said gratefully, "Xiao Guang, thank you, sister-in-law."

"If it weren't for what you did tonight, my daughter and I probably wouldn't have gotten over this in our lives."

Yu Zixin sat on the stool, staring blankly at Yang Guang's face.

This classmate always looked sleepy at school and would show up at the second canteen window at the same time every day to get free seaweed soup.

Tonight completely shattered her worldview.

Just a few dozen minutes ago, he casually scanned a QR code and cleared all of his family's debts.

Then, as if by magic, he pulled his father, who had already been declared dead, back from the brink of death in the living room and held a family meeting in the underworld.

Yu Chengguang floated to Xu Mingxiu's side, his semi-transparent finger pointing at Yang Guang: "Mingxiu, Zixin."

"You two better remember this."

"This kid is my best brother in this life, we've been through thick and thin together!"

"From now on, no matter what trouble you encounter at home, even if the sky falls, just go directly to him!"

"Go to him if you're short of money, go to him if you're being bullied!"

"Just ask him if you need anything, don't hesitate to contact him!"

"Just treat him like family."

Yang Guang rolled his eyes dramatically, crossed his arms, and said, "Old squad leader, you've got your abacus beads flying right in my face."

"I just turned eighteen this year!"

"A fine young man who has never even held a girl's hand."

"If you expect me to take my sister-in-law and niece out every day from now on, how am I ever going to find a wife if word gets back to school?"

"I'm still hoping to save up enough money to marry a beautiful wife and have children for the Yang family!"

Yu Chengguang burst into laughter.

The translucent spirit trembled violently from the laughter: "If you really can't find a wife, my daughter will be yours!"

"rest assured."

"I still acknowledge you as my son-in-law."

Upon hearing this, Yu Zixin's fair cheeks instantly flushed red.

He gripped the hem of his school uniform tightly with both hands, and his toes dug frantically into the ground inside his sneakers.

What on earth is all this?!

Yang Guang waved his hands repeatedly, looking disgusted: "Stop!"

"I treat you like a brother, and you actually want to be my father-in-law?"

"No way!"

"But sister-in-law, I was just joking with the old squad leader, but he's right. Call me anytime if anything happens, don't be shy."

Yang Guang turned to look out the window and said calmly, "Alright, time's up."

"The living and the dead are separated. Your soul has been staying in the house for too long, and the living can't stand this yin energy."

"Ready to hit the road!"

Yu Chengguang's smile faded, and he turned to look steadily at Xu Mingxiu and Yu Zixin, saying with a smile, "Live well."

"Zixin, take good care of your mother."

"Dad is gone."

"Remember, you will always be your father's pride!"

After saying this, he suddenly turned around, passed through the security door, and floated out.

Yang Guang waved to the mother and daughter: "Sister-in-law, eldest daughter, goodbye."

Yu Zixin stood there, stunned, staring at the closed door, completely dumbfounded.

What did he... what did he just call me?

eldest daughter?

now.

A crossroads in Fengdu.

The dim yellow light of the streetlights shone on the cracked asphalt road, and the surroundings were so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Yu Chengguang floated in mid-air, his right hand tightly covering his right cheek.

On the translucent soul body, the right cheek is noticeably bulging.

It's a whole size bigger than the one on the left.

"You brat, can't you be a little more professional?"

"Who pulls a tooth out with their bare hands?"

Yang Guang stood directly under the streetlight, his right index finger and thumb pinching a sharp ghost tooth that shimmered with an eerie green light.

A few drops of black blood, emitting a foul odor, dripped from the roots of the teeth onto the ground.

Yang Guang pulled a two-yuan pack of tissues from his pocket and vigorously wiped the black blood from his fingers, looking disgusted. "How can you blame me?"

"As I just said, this is the rule of our Rebirth Hall: we accept a ghost tooth as payment."

"You stubbornly refuse to cooperate and keep your mouth shut."

"We'll see."

"I told you to come by yourself, but you didn't."

"I only did this because you're my old squad leader. If it were anyone else, I could have knocked all their teeth out, you believe me?"

Yu Chengguang shuddered, lowered his hand from his cheek, and stopped joking: "Good brother, if I leave now, I'll be completely finished."

"Please take good care of my sister-in-law and my daughter."

"If I find out they've been wronged, I'll haunt the underworld and strangle you!"

Yang Guang picked at his ear and put his hands back in his pockets: "You are a ghost now."

"Alright."

"Don't worry, with our friendship, I'll definitely get it done for you."

"And once you leave, I'll arrange a VIP channel for you, use my connections to get you ahead of the queue, and let you get a better chance to be born into a good family sooner."

"I hope to be reborn into a coal mine owner's family in my next life, so I can avoid taking fifty years of detours."

Yu Chengguang pointed at Yang Guang and laughed, "Your money-grubbing nature will never change, not even in your next life!"

"I want to be a soldier again in my next life!"

Yang Guang straightened up.

Put away that cynical attitude.

He pulled his right hand out of his pocket, holding a yellow talisman covered in vermilion patterns between his index and middle fingers. He casually raised it, made a hand seal, and the talisman spontaneously combusted in mid-air at the crossroads.

The orange-red flames burst forth with extremely high temperatures.

A golden beam of light, invisible to the naked eye of ordinary people, descended from the sky.

It instantly enveloped Yu Chengguang's soul completely.

Yu Chengguang stood in the center of the pillar of light, his back ramrod straight, and gave Yang Guang a perfectly standard military salute.

Yang Guang also stood up straight solemnly and watched him leave with a military salute!

Yu Chengguang's soul transformed into countless tiny blue specks of light amidst the golden light, rapidly dissipating into the endless sky.

They have completely disappeared.

At the very second that Yu Chengguang disappeared.

Another burst of extremely pure golden light of merit descended from the sky, directly striking Yang Guang's crown chakra.

The moment the warm energy touched his scalp, the lurking black light within him surged violently.

The enormous golden light of merit was swallowed up by the black light in one gulp, leaving not even a trace.

Yang Guang stood under the street lamp.

He held his head in his hands, his ten fingers digging into his messy hair.

"What a rip-off!"

"Hold!"
