Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 944 - 279: [Collective Sin] (7600)_4

Chen Yan slowly said, "So, that’s how it is. They took your life, didn’t they?"

He frowned and continued, "The one who harbored ill intentions toward you was the eldest son of this family. He fed you animal medicine—likely a sedative. But this medicine is highly stimulating, and combined with the alcohol they forced you to drink, it caused your body to convulse and spasm, leading to vomiting, respiratory failure, and finally death.

The male head of this family, the father, was an accomplice, handling the scene and disposing of the body.

But... there’s another person in their family, the second son. He didn’t harm you, did he?"

"The second son was not at home," the female ghost said coldly.

Chen Yan sighed, "But in revenge, you also killed the second son of their family. Just because... their family took one of your lives?"

The girl suddenly gave a bitter smile, "One life? No! They owe me more than just one life!"

·

After the girl’s body was found, Granny lay on the ground crying, her body as limp as mud, impossible to lift upright.

·

When the police conducted their investigation, villagers said the girl was usually improper.

They said the girl worked as a prostitute in the city, said she was a mistress for rich men in the city.

They said the girl’s money came from impure sources.

They said the girl drank alcohol herself, drank a lot of alcohol—she worked in places like karaoke parlors from a young age, they said she drank with men at banquets, clinking glasses, even using her eyes to lure people.

The villagers were avoiding responsibility.

Someone drowned, and they all said it was the girl’s own fault, that she liked drinking, that she proactively flirted with men at banquets, drank with them, she was improper...

·

"After I died, Granny got sick, and before the end of the year, she also passed away."

The female ghost said in a low voice.

Chen Yan was silent for a moment, then nodded, "So... the Li Family owes you not one life, but two.

The father and son killed you, and indirectly caused your granny’s death."

"Yes, three lives!"

The female ghost raised her head, a tragic smile on her face, laughing loudly, then spoke with a cold tone.

"I didn’t drink that day because... I was pregnant.

Only two months pregnant! I had found out myself and hadn’t had the chance to tell my boyfriend yet!

My period didn’t come that month, so I secretly checked, and I planned to tell my boyfriend after returning, and discuss marriage with him!

I knew he would marry me, he loved me very much!

No one knew about this apart from me, I...

So knowing I was pregnant, I didn’t drink even a drop of alcohol at that banquet!!

They, their family, owe me three lives!

Me, my granny, and... the child in my womb!!"

·

The black energy that permeated the air was gradually dissipating.

Yellow Springs Guide, dispelling grievances, cutting off obsessions!

The black energy of the female ghost gradually faded, and her figure grew increasingly transparent.

As the black energy dissipated, the color of the red dress seemed even more vivid.

"Your life story was very tragic. A perfectly good person, finally finding some hope in life. You had your own life, your pursuits, elderly people you wanted to fulfill your filial duty to, a partner you loved, and you were nurturing future hope, the continuation of life...

All of this was ruined and harmed by this father and son.

You have grievances, hatred, unwillingness, and revenge, all of which are understandable."

Chen Yan sighed and slowly said, "But nothing ever surpasses six words: grievances have sources, debts have owners.

The Li family’s eldest son harmed you, and the father was an accomplice, and they deserve to die.

But your revenge killed innocent people. The Li family’s second son didn’t harm you; he wasn’t even there that day.

As for Li Guohua, he... he had grudges with the neighboring Li Family, so he dug up your grave, used evil techniques to condense your obsessions and grievances, turning you into a fierce ghost, stealing your ashes, disturbing your peace in death.

These are sins, but ultimately not worthy of death."

·

The black energy finally dissipated completely.

Under the light of the Yellow Springs Guide, the black energy was consumed, resolved, and eliminated.

The color of the female ghost grew increasingly lighter and fainter.

Her expression seemed less distorted, growing increasingly serene, even the originally pale face gradually seemed to regain tranquility, no longer so hideous.

You could tell that, in life, she had a gentle and graceful appearance.

She had crescent-moon-like eyes, a mouth that hinted a smile.

"The people in this village are all evil. I initially planned to take revenge on each family, one by one.

My granny’s death was due to heartache, due to despair.

But it was also because of the village’s evils.

These people spoke ill of me behind my back, even after my death, they told the police I was improper, said I was a bad person, said I was wanton.

Said I flirted with men at the dinner table, drank with them, got drunk, and drowned in the river...

Granny died from sadness and anger upon hearing this.

Initially, I wanted to kill the Li family, then Li Guohua, and then everyone in the village who spoke ill of me, one by one..."

Chen Yan observed the female ghost’s face, noticing a hint of ferocity reappearing, and suddenly interrupted with a resolute shout, "It’s over!!"

The female ghost trembled!

"The path of the living and dead is different!" Chen Yan solemnly said, "The sins of the living were never ones for the deceased to avenge.

You are already dead, and what you are now isn’t truly you, not Li Xin herself.

It’s just the obsessions and grievances left by Li Xin before she died.

The cycle of the Heavenly Dao, those who sinned have already died.

And those you believe tarnished your reputation in the village, they will also suffer a decline in their fortunes due to their verbal sins.

The Heavenly Dao cycles, every cause and effect is predetermined.

Sinners, creating karma, will eventually face karmic retribution."
