"I'll probably be too much of a coward to face you unless something major happens." Qian Qiu said.
Xie Lian stood up, and slowly walked to the statue. He stood in front of it head on; that face was indeed exactly the same as his own, only it was carved in a sorrowful expression, its face covered in tears, scrunched up and ugly. After staring at it for a moment, Xie Lian sighed and placed his hand on its head, pouring in a powerful blow.
"Yes, destroy it!" Yizhen cheered. "You don't need useless things created by useless people!"
Yin Yiu couldn't help the fond smile that left his lips without permission.
'He really was still the same.' he thought, feeling both glad and bitter.
When he removed his hand, two long crevices crawled over the cheeks of the statue, and soon after, the crying face broke apart. The statue collapsed and crumbled into small rocks, falling to the ground, never to be restored.
Hua Cheng frowned slightly. Why did he let his Gege see such a sight? He should have destroyed it first.
When Xie Lian turned around again, his usual gentle and peaceful expression was back on his face. He rubbed his forehead and said, "Qi Rong's lair probably still has a lot of humans hidden, let me go find them and let them go."
"Of course his first priority is the people and not his mental state." Pei Ming said with a frown.
Hua Cheng stood up too, "Let's go."
"And the supportive husband is naturally willing to come along." Pei Ming continued.
During the ruckus earlier, all the little green lantern ghosts in Qi Rong's lair had run away, and those who didn't were hidden in the shadows, afraid to come out. The two searched all over, nabbing a couple unfortunate little ghosts along the way and forced them to lead, and they found many caves used for 'storing fresh food'.
Qi Rong frowned at the sight of his slaves being used by his enemy and cousin. He should build another home where no one will know.
Counting roughly, the number of people Qi Rong captured for consumption was actually no less than three hundred; they were either nearby villagers or travelers.
Many looked disgusted at the sight.
The two unlocked jail cells as they roamed, letting go of all the detainees. With tasks at hand, Xie Lian was able to change focus and calm down. Now that they're free, he also had the time to chat with Hua Cheng, so he pondered at his words but asked anyway, "By the way, San Lang, I wanted to ask you about something."
