Chapter 121-125

Chapter 121: Cultivator's Abode

The long night was finally over.

Thank you readers!

The sun was up when Tang Hao left the police station.

Tang Hao went to the rooftop of a skyscraper. One night had passed, and the Gourd of Soul Purification should have done its job.

He unplugged the cork. A cloud of smoke appeared with a poof, then the smoke coalesced into the silhouette of a girl. She wore a red dress and was as charming as she looked in the photograph.

Before this, her grudge made her expression look frightening. After the purification, she looked gentle and calm.

She looked at Tang Hao and sighed. "Why did you stop me? That Qian Yifei deserved to die!"

Her soul might be purified, but the memories remained.

"Don't worry, she'll receive her due punishment. She's been arrested by the police. Cheng Zhijie too, and his father has fallen from grace," Tang Hao said.

"Also, the other people who were involved in your murder have all been arrested and will soon receive the punishment they deserve."

Zhou Lingxue was stunned.

"The police will be announcing the findings of yesterday's case to the public today. This, of course, includes your murder case from five years ago. Your parents will finally receive an answer, even if the answer isn't something they might want to hear.

"I've heard from Captain Zhou that your parents have been going to the police station every year for the past five years..." Tang Hao was low-spirited as he spoke.

He could not imagine how Zhou Lingxue's parents must have felt for the past five years.

"I hope that Cheng Zhijie will be brought to justice. At least your parents might find some closure, now that they have a definite answer of what happened to you."

Zhou Lingxue was silent for a long while. She looked dejected.

She abruptly turned her head to look at one corner of the city. Her home was there!

"Thank you!" She said softly.

She understood that her case would not have concluded satisfactorily if Tang Hao had not helped her.

"Don't mention it!" Tang Hao smiled. "Now that the case is settled, there's no need for you to remain in as a ghost. How about I guide you toward reincarnation?"

Zhou Lingxue thought for a while, then shook her head. "No, I think I should stay here. There are many things in this world that I can't let go just yet. I still like to visit them from time to time.

"And I still have a massive debt of gratitude to repay you too!"

Tang Hao laughed. "There's no need to."

Zhou Lingxue chuckled. "I have to. It's just that I'm a ghost now, so I can't devote my body to you. But I still can help you with a lot of things!

"For example, I can help you protect your loved ones. I might be no match for you in a fight, but I'm still pretty capable."

"Well..." Tang Hao hesitated.

Zhou Lingxue was indeed capable. Her level of cultivation was much higher than normal ghosts.

"Hm? Something's not right! You're only dead for five years! How could you have attained such a high level of cultivation in just five years?" Tang Hao asked curiously.
