Even after applying makeup, it couldn't conceal the flush of anger.

Li Zhiyuan stopped walking and slightly turned his head.

The White Crane Child held his breath.

Li Zhiyuan pointed towards Zhao Juanhua ahead.

The White Crane Child exhaled madly, holding a trident, took a quick stride forward, and stabbed Zhao Juanhua in the heart, once, twice, thrice...

Six times in a second, the trident left an afterimage.

Zhao Juanhua died, and at the moment her life completely vanished, a stench of decay spread from her perforated flesh.

She was a corpse all along, barely hanging on till now.

Li Zhiyuan took out an Evil-breaking Talisman and carelessly tossed it.

The talisman paper ignited with a "snap," and along with it, Zhao Juanhua's body was also set ablaze, the scene reminiscent of throwing a firecracker into a septic tank.

As it burned, a white wooden strip appeared inside, engraved with the words—"Borrow Life to Reincarnate."

When Zhao Juanhua's body was almost burnt out, and the stench had dissipated, the white wooden strip also ignited, emitting an enticing fragrance.

Li Zhiyuan remained still, neither picking it up nor asking anyone else to.

However, Lin Shuyou, who had just ended the planchette session, proactively approached and asked, "Bro... Big Brother, should I help you pick it up?"

"Haha..."

Yin Meng standing in the distance couldn't help but laugh.

In Lin Shuyou, she seemed to see herself when she first joined the team; albeit, she was at most a bit more talkative, but never this dim-witted.

Li Zhiyuan glanced at Lin Shuyou.

Lin Shuyou silently retreated two steps, imitating Tan Wenbin's prior scratching of his head.

Perhaps because being a normal person had always been a luxury for Li Zhiyuan, he couldn't understand why people like Yu Xuzi and the old woman would willingly turn themselves into grotesque beings for so-called "longevity."

Why couldn't they just live as a decent human being?

No one picked it up, and the white wooden strip gradually turned black, finally cracked, and gradually turned to ash.

Tan Wenbin walked up to Zhao Mengyao.

Because Aunt Liu had tortured Meng Meng, she understood how to torment.

She lashed Zhao Mengyao till her body was flawless, yet spared her essence.

Zhao Mengyao had seen Li Zhiyuan and Lin Shuyou before; when Li Zhiyuan had come to the dorm with the police and pointed out her hiding the cursed object in laundry soap, it startled her. Additionally, Li Zhiyuan claimed to be Zhou Yunyun's cousin, so even though she didn't attend the meeting, she could roughly guess Li Zhiyuan might be Nantong Corpse Recovery Li.

Therefore, she held no fondness for Li Zhiyuan and Lin Shuyou. But upon seeing Tan Wenbin appear, she seemed to spot a savior.

"Student, you've seen me before, in Yunyun's hospital room, I went to visit Yunyun, do you remember, student?"

Tan Wenbin nodded, taking deep breaths.

He has killed before, and also slain demons, but that was in situations where the opponent was frenzied. To take out an unfrenzied one now, well, it's not that he can't do it, but it requires a bit of mental preparation.

"Student, please save me, speak for me, I've been controlled and suppressed by my great-grandmother all along, I hate this family, I can't breathe in this household, I originally thought that going to university outside would free me from here and sever ties with my birth family."

"But unexpectedly, my great-grandmother dragged me back. Now she's dead, good riddance! I thank you for rescuing me, please talk to them for me, I'm innocent, I was forced, I'm friends with Yunyun, we were roommates, I'm her best girlfriend!"

The rest were somewhat puzzled looking at Zhao Mengyao; certainly, it's normal for someone to show immense will to survive when facing life or death, but seldom had such ridiculousness been heard of at such a moment.

Yin Meng couldn't help but ask, "Did you really get into university on your own merit?"

Zhao Mengyao instantly replied, "It was arranged by my great-grandmother, she had an orphan raised at her side take the exam in my place."

Yin Meng nodded, feeling appeased; had such a fool managed to get into university, she would truly have felt unjust.

Tan Wenbin inquired, "What about the person who took the exam for you?"

Zhao Mengyao pointed to the ashes of her great-grandmother: "She killed her, wuwuwu, she was my childhood friend, wuwuwu..."

Tan Wenbin clenched his shovel tightly, raising the Yellow River Shovel in his hand.

Zhao Mengyao saw this and immediately shouted:

"No, no, you can't do this, I'm friends with Yunyun, if she knows I'm dead, she'll be sad, if she knows you killed me, she'll never talk to you again in her life!"

"Do you like Yunyun?"

"Let me go, save me. I'll return to school and help you pursue Yunyun, I'll intercept all the love letters Yunyun receives, creating opportunities for you alone."

"Heh heh..."

Tan Wenbin chuckled, raising the shovel resolutely.

"It was you who cursed Yunyun, causing her almost to jump off a building. How absurd, you harm others as you please but forbidding retaliation is simply what you deserve."

Zhao Mengyao screamed, "I was helping you—telling you—Zhou Yunyun is a whore! She has long been fooling around with numerous men behind your back, secretly selling herself countless times. You truly like her, but I was helping you, afraid you'd be fooled by her; Zhou Yunyun is just a bitch!"
