Chapter 537 She is Already Dead
Someone jokingly asked, “So, do the two of you share a bed at night?”
Wang Jinbu said expressionlessly, “She sleeps on the bed, while my body sleeps underneath. She drinks tea, my body pours the tea; she washes her feet, my body fetches the water for her.”
Mengyu noticed that every time he referred to himself, he used “my body” instead.
That is to say, it was not him who had been acting in the past, but his body, and his body had been controlled by Bai Renfeng.
This also fully explains that during this period, he was not Bai Renfeng’s man, but Bai Renfeng’s servant.
In the end, the team leader sent someone to report the situation of Bai Renfeng to her family in Fengmugen.
That very night, an old man, claiming to be Bai Renfeng’s father, came down from the mountains to collect Bai Renfeng’s body, not asking a single question about her death.
Without a doubt, he must have known what his daughter was up to. The plan had failed and her plots exposed, the only thing she could do was to atone with her death.
What surprised Mengyu the most was that, upon his arrival, he immediately stuffed a detoxification medicine into his daughter’s mouth.
Mengyu examined the medicine with his Divine Sense and discovered it was indeed a detoxification medicine.
Mengyu wondered, the person is already dead, why bother detoxifying her?
Using such a good detoxification medicine on a dead person, isn’t that a waste?
Could it be, this woman isn’t dead yet? Does he intend to bring his daughter back to life?
Actually, Mengyu hadn’t intended to determine her life or death, merely wanted to severely punish her. After all, she had been punished—her own daughter was already dead.
Mengyu checked again carefully; the woman truly showed no signs of life. She indeed was as dead as could be.
Mengyu gave up probing Bai Renfeng and turned to the numb Bai Renfeng’s father, asking him, “You must know what your daughter did, right?”
The old man did not even lift his eyelids to look at Mengyu: “She is already dead.”
“Your daughter even employed the Taboo Technique, trying to exchange her daughter’s life with my disciple’s.”
Mengyu stared intently at the old man’s eyes.
Yet the old man’s eyelids remained down, preventing Mengyu from seeing.
“She is already dead!”
Mengyu asked persistently, “You must know that defying the heavens to change fate will incur divine retribution. Why didn’t you stop her then?”
The old man still replied with only one sentence: “She is already dead!”
Mengyu felt exasperated: “She plotted to change my disciple’s fate. I haven’t even taken action against her yet, and she has already committed suicide.”
“She is already dead!”
No matter what Mengyu said, the old man responded with only this one sentence, causing her much frustration.
Mengyu almost shouted: “If you had stopped her initially, she wouldn’t have died! You are a cold-blooded person, witnessing her death without doing anything!”
“She would still have died!”
The old man’s wooden eyes finally showed a slight change, he lifted his eyelids and glanced at Mengyu: “She only foresaw a calamity befalling Ah Mei, yet she didn’t foresee her own. Her death was her destined calamity!”
After saying this, the old man spoke no more.
Afterward, he placed his daughter directly into a large carrying basket and carried her back overnight.
He carried his daughter without turning back, quickly walked to his home, placed his daughter’s body on the bed, then took out a jar from under the bed with a Sealing Talisman on it, tore off the talisman, opened it, started chanting a spell, and began the ritual.
Soon, a wisp of soul drifted out of the jar and entered the dead woman’s body.
