Chapter 1023: Chapter 1023

The three children spoke with words increasingly sharp and vile, but the old woman and the others did not scold them. On the contrary, they looked at them with loving and approving gazes, affirming that what they said was right and that they were indeed the treasures of their family.

Chi Xun and the others were stunned.

Over the past few days, they had encountered all sorts of people, but this family was enough to make their jaws drop in disbelief.

Grand Lady, listening to the cries outside, looked at the evil ghost infants that had been suppressed and murmured, "All of them are girls..."

At that moment, it seemed as though she understood something.

Grand Lady didn’t argue with them. Instead, she said, "Alright, we’ll first get you out of here."

The old woman grinned, even more pleased with herself, and said, "Should’ve done this earlier! Hurry up!"

Grand Lady replied, "You must first return the Talisman. The evil spirits are fierce, and without the Talisman, it will be hard to carve a bloody path out of here."

Chi Xun initially thought that Grand Lady was being ruthless, but it turned out that she was just trying to pacify the old woman and get the Talisman back first.

However, no matter how crafty Grand Lady was, she was no match for the heartless and vicious old woman.

The old woman’s gaze turned cold, and she said, "I can return the Talisman, but you must kill that girl first!" She pointed at Ye Yanqin, who was unconscious.

In this way, even if the Talisman was returned, they wouldn’t waste time here.

Chi Xun’s face turned pale. "You’re insane!"

The old woman, hearing the ghostly wails, felt uneasy but forced herself to be tough for the sake of her precious grandchildren.

She sneered, "She’s already half dead. You’re just doing a good deed by helping her end her suffering. Hurry up and get it over with. If you make me too angry, we’ll all die here!"

Trying to reason with someone like her was pointless. This family obviously had no sense of reason.

Grand Lady’s face grew darker, her anger rising to its peak. "A few Talisman, and you want to rip them up? Fine, go ahead."

With a swift movement, she charged forward.

"What... What are you doing?!" The old woman instinctively tried to tear up the Talisman as a threat.

But Grand Lady didn’t care. In mid-air, she performed a series of eighteen kicks, sending the old woman and her family flying out of the Talisman array!

The ghostly cries grew louder.

The evil spirits surrounded them, tightening their grip around their necks.

The family struggled to crawl toward the glowing Talisman array, desperately trying to reach it.

They could barely move forward.

The old woman screamed in a panic, but it was too late.

Desperately, she tried to use all the Talisman to save her precious grandchildren.

In her hands, the Talisman had been tightly clenched. When she saw Grand Lady approaching, she used all her strength to tear the Talisman into two pieces.

The shredded Talisman was useless.

She helplessly watched as her precious grandchildren were strangled and suffocated by the ghostly energy, collapsing motionless on the ground.

Even their souls were shattered by the overwhelming ghostly force.

Then came the others in the family.

The old woman screamed in anguish:

"Someone save them!!"

"You heartless scoundrels! Watching us die without lifting a finger, you’ll suffer the wrath of heaven!"

Her voice grew faint as she spoke.

Grand Lady watched her quietly and said, "I may suffer the wrath of heaven, but you... will never get the chance to see it."

The old woman widened her eyes.

At the moment of her death, she felt no regret.

She breathed her last, and her soul was also torn apart.

Chi Xun and the others shuddered in horror as they watched this tragic scene unfold.

"Grand Lady, you shouldn’t have done that. Why burden yourself with this karmic debt?" Chi Xun said. On matters , he always thought of himself first.

Grand Lady shrugged indifferently. "If there is a heavenly way, it won’t be concerned with me."

She had killed countless people in her youth, and the karmic debt was too heavy for her to care about now.

At this moment, Shen Chong noticed that Ye Yanqin’s complexion was worsening and quickly said, "Miss Ye’s condition is deteriorating rapidly!"

Grand Lady and Chi Xun hurried over to check.

Ye Yanqin’s body was becoming colder, a sign of soul damage and weakness.

However, with no Talisman left, and Grand Lady just starting to walk the path of cultivation, she was skilled in combat but not in creating formations or drawing Talismans.

"We should take Miss Ye out of here and fight our way out," Chi Xun suggested.

The Duke of Anguo’s residence had Talisman, and there was also Xuanzheng Temple.

Grand Lady spoke solemnly, "Her soul is injured. If we move recklessly, it could speed up her collapse. Moreover, with the ghostly energy outside, if we don’t protect her well, she might really die here."

However, there was still a way.

At this critical moment, they needed to contact Tongtong.

Grand Lady pulled out the Telestone and immediately tried to contact him.

After waiting a moment, there was still no response from the Telestone. Grand Lady then turned to recite the summoning incantation for Siheng.

Siheng, just like Nanli, was helping Ao Zhaozhao reshape the Dragon Horn at this moment. But with his cultivation level, his primordial spirit could divide into two.

"Grandmother?" He answered the Telestone.

"It’s good that you’ve answered!" Grand Lady didn’t waste time, quickly explaining the situation and urging him to come quickly.

Siheng said, "A’Li and I are currently tied up with something, but I’ll send Cinian over."

"Good, good," Grand Lady nodded, "Tell him to hurry! And bring Talisman that can repair the soul!"

Siheng agreed and immediately contacted Cinian, explaining the situation briefly.

Upon hearing about the chaos in Futian Town, Cinian immediately responded, "I’ll use a Transfer Talisman to get there right away!"

With Cinian handling the situation, Siheng felt reassured, his primordial spirit returning to his body to continue his work.

Cinian, who had already put on his immortal garments before bed, changed his thoughts, and the garments adjusted to fit his new intentions. Using his spiritual power, he woke his disciples.

"Futian Town is under attack by evil spirits, the situation is urgent!"

"Master will use the Transfer Talisman to get there first, you all follow me on your swords!"

Shandu said, "Master, we all have Transfer Talismans, we can go with you!"

No need to ask, they must’ve borrowed them from Nanli.

Cinian didn’t dare to be presumptuous and didn’t refuse. "Then let’s leave immediately!"

However, Bai Family’s villa had a barrier, so they couldn’t use the Transfer Talisman in the guest courtyard.

The group of monks didn’t have much to pack, so they quickly put on their robes and left for the courtyard, where they could safely use the Transfer Talisman.

At that moment, Bai Peng was sneaking over to deliver supper to his children but unexpectedly ran into Cinian and the others.

"Old bald donkey! What are you doing out so late?" Bai Peng shouted, stopping them.

Cinian replied, "It’s urgent!"

He had already taken out the Transfer Talisman.

Bai Peng’s mind turned. "Take me with you!"

He flew over and grabbed Cinian’s hand.

Seeing the urgency with which the old monk was leaving with his disciple, Bai Peng figured something serious must have happened.

He thought to himself that he couldn’t let the old monk steal all the glory, especially after the Bai family had already suffered a public humiliation. He had to find a way to regain some face.
