CHAPTER 85

Qin Yan, why did you make me come back alone...

Fu Yushu was utterly stunned.

He stared blankly at Fu Changling, whose eyes reddened with emotion as he forced the words out, "She was an evil demon, a heretic who used humans to refine the spiritual energy core for cultivation. To separate yourself from her, you ended her life with your own hands. Then you married Yue Sihua, reclaiming your position as the young lord of the Fu Clan. I am your bastard son, brought into the household by you."

"You never cared about me since I was a child," the heavy rain poured down, pelting Fu Changling's face. "You have another child now, you have a wife, and you have a good life ahead of you."

Fu Yushu stared at Fu Changling in shock, seemingly unable to believe it at all.

"Don't dwell on it," Fu Changling wiped away the rain from his face and said calmly, "Go see her properly. This is all an illusion anyway; do whatever feels right to you."

Fu Yushu was unable to utter a single word. Meanwhile, Qin Yan swiftly traveled through the teleportation array and arrived at Taiping Town. He was immediately greeted by the sight of countless cultivators filling the sky.

"Back away," Qin Yan's voice rang out, prompting Fu Changling to quickly help Fu Yushu in retreating. As Qin Yan's longsword gleamed brightly, cutting through the crowd, Fu Changling and Fu Yushu stumbled into Taiping Town together. Surveying the desolate surroundings, Fu Yushu asked anxiously, "Where is everyone?"

Fu Changling conjured a talisman with a swift gesture of his fingertips. The talisman lit up, and Fu Changling led Fu Yushu as they hurried away. Turning to Qin Yan, he urged, "Shīxiōng, come inside the barrier!"

As soon as Qin Yan received the message, he hastened to catch up with Fu Changling, asking, "Where is everybody?"

"They are in the spot where we entered," Fu Changling said as he dashed ahead. Qin Yan's eyes instantly went cold when he heard it was the place where they entered. He reached out, steadying Fu Yushu beside him, and instructed Fu Changling, "You go first."

Fu Changling nodded and sprinted forward frantically. After a while, he reached the entrance of the previous coffin chamber, only to find it swarming with the townsfolk of Taiping Town.

At this moment, these people no longer resembled humans at all. With wild abandon, they surged towards the coffin chamber, and Fu Changling shouted loudly, "Get out of the way!"

However, no one paid any heed. At the sight of Fu Changling, their fear intensified, prompting shouts of, "Someone is here!"

"Here comes her rescue!" With these words echoing, Fu Changling raised his hand, conjuring a gust of fierce wind, and abruptly swept the people right by him aside, carving a clear path.

He dashed forward, kicking the door of the coffin chamber with all his might. As it swung open, his gaze fell upon a figure lying still on the stone bed. Blood pooled around her, her body gruesomely mutilated. Several townsfolk stood nearby, wielding sharp blades. Beside them, a large basin overflowed with a grisly heap of flesh and blood.

Fu Changling's fury ignited as he rushed towards Lin Chen and shouted, "What the hell are you all doing?!"

The townsfolk, filled with fear, hastily backed away and then knelt on the ground, trembling as they pleaded, "Forgive us, Xianshi. We have no choice. We have no choice. There's nothing we can do..."

Fu Changling paid no heed to their plight. Hastening to the stone bed, he grasped Lin Chen's bloodied hand, now reduced to mere skeletal remains. He clasped her hand firmly, channeling his spiritual power into her.
