Chapter 8
"You just say it." The city owner said, "If it is true, the city owner will deal with it fairly, but if it is slander, you should know the fate of deceiving the city owner."

Yun Yan's eyes met Ji Changyue's, and he said, "Don't worry, City Lord, since I'm here, I know the consequences."

He spent half a year collecting the Cui family's criminal evidence. He wanted to kill the Cui family and secretly send the Cui family's criminal evidence to the city lord, so he took Ah Nuan away.

But today he discovered a strange thing, so strange that he changed his mind and was willing to cooperate with Ji Changyue to expose the Cui family face to face.

Under the gaze of everyone, Yun Yan took out a stone statue from his cuff. It was the size of a palm and was covered in pitch black.

Ji Changyue paled, "It turned out to be a stone statue of a grudge."

Hearing Ji Changyue's words, everyone retreated one after another, even Yun Yan looked down at the stone statue in his hand.

"Is what you said true?" The city lord was shocked.

Among them, only Ji Changyue has seen the real body of the resentful demon. The city lord has already believed nine points of Ji Changyue's words, but he can't help but confirm again, what if it's not the resentful demon?
The resentment was resolved with great difficulty, wouldn't it be dangerous if Wangxian City reappeared.

Ji Changyue's face was serious, "The city lord is indeed a grudge!"

"City Lord, it's not, it's not me..." Cui Laosan shook his head, "This is slander, and it's really unfair to say that the stone statue that I don't know where it came from is my Cui family's."

"Are you only going to talk about slander?" Ji Changyue's ears are numb from hearing him say slander, can you say something else.

Cui Laosan glared at Ji Changyue angrily, "In front of the city lord, how can you, a girl, have a place to talk!" After finishing speaking, he continued to shirk.

"This stone statue was found from your Cui family." Yun Yan said, "And, your Cui family has more than this stone statue."

He looked at Cui Laosan, and slowly said: "There is a dark room under Cui's house, and there is a bigger stone statue in the dark room, which also looks like this, what's more, that stone statue has its own thinking."

Last night, Ah Nuan strayed into the dark room and was almost absorbed by the stone statue. If he hadn't noticed something wrong today and pressed Ah Nuan, he would not have known that Cui's family was secretly raising demons.

"My lord, if you don't believe me, send someone to search in the darkroom of Cui's house immediately. Presumably, the stone statue in the darkroom of Cui's old house has not been transferred in the future."

For the stone statue, Ji Changyue closed his eyes, and had a bad guess in his heart.

They were careless, the resentment demon is a golden core cultivation base, how could there be no backup.

Seeing that the city lord wanted to send someone to Cui's house, Ji Changyue stopped him and said, "Resentful demons often come and go at night, and are powerful at night, so it's best to go to the dark room tomorrow."

The city lord nodded, as he had listened to Ji Changyue's suggestion.

"Then where is the witness you mentioned?"

Knowing that the city lord asked, Yun Yan said: "There is a small village in the south of the city. A couple in the village adopted a little boy three years ago. He is the son of Xie Mu, a jade craftsman in the city."

Xie Mu also died at the hands of the Cui family. The Cui family contacted Xie Mu for a few days, and Xie Mu died. It is said that because of drinking at night, he fell into the moat and there was no body left.

What Yunyan investigated was that Xie Mu hadn't come out since he entered Cui's house. Although the neighbors saw Xie Mu coming home, they didn't see Xie Mu's face. Soon after, news of Xie Mu's death came out.

Thinking about it now, Xie Mu died at that time.

Xie Mu's wife took their only son to remarry and left Wangxian City not long after. She said she was leaving, but in fact, the wise woman realized that her husband's death was abnormal and wanted to leave with her son.

However, they did not escape the nightmare. They were chased by the Cui family and fell off the cliff. The woman died on the spot, but Xie Mu's son escaped by luck and was adopted by the villagers.

Yun Yan had a classmate from that village, and when he went to play with his classmate's house, he accidentally discovered that the child was hostile to Cui's family, so after further investigation, he found out.

The city lord looked serious, and ordered: "Yunyan, you know where the child is. The city lord sent someone to accompany you. Be sure to bring the child safely to the city lord's mansion tonight."

When Yun Yan said Xie Mu, Cui Laosan's face changed, and when he heard the city lord's order, his face turned pale, and he slumped on the ground with cold sweat on his forehead.

Yun Yan took the order to leave, and the city lord didn't want to see Cui's youngest who was like a puddle of mud, "Come here, take all the Cui family members into prison, and interrogate tomorrow."

The youngest Cui lowered his head, and the Cui family members bowed their heads and wept, letting the soldiers take them away.

Seeing that today's affairs are over, Ji Changyue bid farewell to the city lord and left the city lord's mansion.

When he got home, Ji Changan, who was lying on the table in a drowsy state, woke up when he heard footsteps. Seeing that it was Ji Changyue, he said happily, "Sister, you're back, have you eaten yet? I made porridge, and I'll serve you some." As he spoke, he stomped towards the kitchen, and after a while, he brought thick rice porridge and a small dish of fried vegetables.

Under his expectant eyes, Ji Changyue finished the porridge and green vegetables, and praised: "It's delicious."

Only then did Ji Changan let go of his nervousness, and then he remembered to ask: "Sister, is the City Lord's Mansion busy with work? Why did you come back so late today?"

If his sister hadn't told her not to run around at night, he would have gone to the city lord's mansion to find her.

Hearing this, the smile on Ji Changyue's face faded, and he asked Ji Chang'an, "Chang'an, if I leave Wangxian City and go to a completely strange place, would you like to go?"

She was very happy when she found out that she could cultivate, but today she was uneasy when she learned of the evil deeds Cui Laosan did and the resurrection of the resentful demon.

Cui Laosan, a mortal, can kill so many people. What if one day she is like Song Nuan and the people who were victimized, and has no power to fight back against the powerful?What's more, there is a big knife of Yunshang Xianzong hanging on her head.

On the way back, she reorganized the contents of the book, and found that Yunshang Xianzong didn't seem to care that much about the jade pendant, and they seemed to only target her, the person holding the jade pendant.

In the book, she sold the jade pendant because of poverty, but was soon discovered by the sect, and then forcibly locked the jade pendant on her body. It was not until after her death that the jade pendant fell into the hands of the heroine.

Resentful demons can come back from the dead, Ruoyun Xianzong is determined to find her, can she really escape?

So, she needs strength.Only when she becomes stronger can she avoid the tragic death plot in the book, save herself, and save Ji Chang'an as well.

"Does my sister want to go to the realm of comprehension beyond the mountain?" Ji Changan asked.

Ji Changan and Ji Changyue are actually only two years apart. Although Ji Changyue relies too much on him, he doesn't really know anything.

He looked at Ji Changyue seriously, "Sister, do whatever you want, as long as you don't lose Chang'an."

Hearing what he said, Ji Changyue knocked him on the head, "What nonsense, now you are my only relative, I can't lose you if I lose anyone."

And in the book, Chang An died in the mortal world, if she could bring him alive to the cultivation world, would it change his fate?

The only thing that is uncertain now is whether Chang'an has spiritual roots.

If you have spiritual roots, you can practice together. If you don't have spiritual roots, I heard that the inner sect disciples in the cultivation world can bring one person as an attendant, so that the safety of Chang'an can be guaranteed.

Of course, if you go to the sect, Yunshang Xianzong is the first to be excluded.

Yunshang Xianzong is the number one sect in the cultivation world. If you don't go to Yunshang Xianzong, the best choice is Qingya Sect, which is at the head of Low Yunshang Xianzong.

Qingya Sect is the second sect in the cultivation world. Its cultivation resources and scale are comparable to Yunshang Xianzong's. The only thing that loses to Yunshang Xianzong is that there are no two cultivation geniuses like the male and female protagonists.

If you go to Qing Yazong, even if you are found by Yunshang Xianzong later, with the sect behind you, no matter how arrogant Yunshang Xianzong is, you will not dare to come and snatch someone.
