Yi Hua circulated his gaze in all directions. The sound of drops like rain was heard, but Yi Hua did not feel the rain. But before he raised his head, a hand touched his head.

Oye ...

"Not to be afraid."

Just now Yi Hua thought of kicking the owner of the hand, but An's calm voice sounded. Yi Hua instantly understood that it was An. This man always comes at unexpected times. His movements were so smooth that Yi Hua did not hear his footsteps.

All about An was still a mysterious thing to Yi Hua. He doesn't even know how he can always find her. But, ...

"Don't look up. It was just the sound of raindrops" An said as he wrapped Yi Hua in a robe.

Why did it get like this?

"HuaHua, just follow as this bodyguard man said. You're gonna want to sleep well tonight, aren't you?" Xiao's words made Yi Hua not rebel.

"It seems that the girl's soul is still able to bring you to this place" An whispered to Yi Hua.

Of course Yi Hua understood. What An meant was Fang Yin. However, Fang Yin seemed to want to stop her lover. But on one hand this was a little strange when Fang Yin himself could not meet Zhang Yi in person.

If Fang Yin could tell Zhang Yi himself, would the man stop?

"Maybe I can explain a little to you, Yi Hua. The Fang Yin Souls left on this earth were very few. It was almost scattered, if he could not return to the sky, then he would not be able to reincarnate" explained Xiao who was now more informative. Usually this rotten system preferred to insult Yi Hua rather than being a pointer.

However, did Zhang Yi not understand all of this?

Love is so beautiful. Everything looks like you can face all the joys of this world out of love. Although Yi Hua was not very good at speaking wisely, but he was a little more logical than the imagination of a cow that could fly.

But if love can indeed be a force to face everything, then love can also turn very bad. It's not strange that you could sacrifice everything just to get love. That's the relevant thing. Yi Hua wouldn't be so surprised about it all.

Even Zhang Yi never realized that this crazy love made Fang Yin suffer.

In the end, Yi Hua followed An's footsteps that carried her. He remained bowed under the cloak worn by An. And, there is no talk that can be done by the two.

But curiosity is always a dangerous thing for everyone. And Yi Hua as well.

Every step he heard raindrops, but he was not exposed to the rain. Even if An protects her, but Yi Hua does not understand why An should protect her. It's just rain, isn't it?

SRETT

Yi Hua moved slowly just to extend his hand. At that time he immediately looked at what he got in the palm of his hand. In his heart he prayed that it was not bird droppings, because it felt so strange in the hands.

However ...

Hey, Xiao Foul! If there is blood dripping down, then what is on it? I'll give you a compliment if you can answer it.

"Do you need me to praise you?" asked Xiao who was feeling careless with Yi Hua. But he is like the one that already exists. He thought that this 'master' of his was not so useful as to become an arrogant fortune teller named Yi Hua.

The obvious ... Yi Hua did not know why he had posed such a riddle. He just can't call it himself. That's kind of horrible to mention.

"Zhang Yuwen is disgusting again preparing his food." It was not Xiao who answered, but An who explained it.

At that time Yi Hua felt a bitter taste in his throat. He hoped that now he would not vomit. Obviously he didn't want to do it, let alone having An here.

CRUST!

Yi Hua was shocked when he heard the loud breaking sound. Before long a sound like 'thud' followed. Yi Hua guessed that it was a falling sound.

And, it all started from An's long legs. This man kicked towards the tree, and it instantly made the 'something' that dangled there fall. Yi Hua could only pray that whatever fell down would not land on them.

But An always works clean. They can avoid things that hang over them. Yi Hua was clearly not hit by the drops of blood, and the sound of the drops of blood was also over. It was all because An had already dropped everything that had fallen like fruit.

Yi Hua could no longer guess who was more ruthless here.

"Isn't it better to let them off politely, Mr An?" asked Yi Hua who was not in the heart.

Yi Hua did not know how An looked, but from his voice Yi Hua could catch the sense of indifference there. This guy probably doesn't really care about any of this. Anyway ...

"They're dead. No more pain."

Then, there Yi Hua was reluctant to comment on anything.

Well ~

When someone is dead, he is dead.

However Yi Hua himself felt afraid of An. I don't know because of what.

***

SRETT!

Yi Hua blinked his eyes for a moment to adjust the light. He did not expect that An would remove the robe on his head quickly. He was used to the dark, so now his eyes hurt a little with the light.

But for only a few seconds he adjusted his gaze, and now his eyes were fixed to the front. Precisely in a small house that Yi Hua sure will not be inhabited by humans because it is located in the middle of the forest.

Even so, this small house looks so comfortable to live in. Even this house is too clean to be said to be a house in the middle of the forest. There were many flowers planted around the house, and it spread a very soothing fragrance.

"This house was close to where we fell."

Yi Hua passed out first and did not know about this house.

"Is ..." Yi Hua was afraid of her own conjecture.

If a soul still cannot ascend to the heavens, it means that it still has business in the world. But Fang Yin looked like someone who did not blame fate so much. He was not vengeful, so there was nothing that made him want to embrace the world so much.

"There's a soul summoning circle installed in this house," explained Xiao who somehow sounded a bit sad.

He never thought that Xiao was a 'something' that had feelings. Even so, Yi Hua was unwilling to conclude it like that. After all Xiao would not want to be called sympathetic to human destiny.

"Bringing off the will of the heavens, and trying to bring to life the dead. Zhang's official did so that Fang Yin could return." Yi Hua did not know why he could say it out loud.

He also did not think about An's opinion. The man also looked so calm as usual. He simply stood beside Yi Hua to wait for his actions.

However, Yi Hua could not think of anything. Especially when his gaze focused again on the blood-clothing marks. It was like someone who was injured was walking towards that house.

Zhang Yi's?

SRETT!

TAP

Yi Hua turned to the sound of approaching footsteps. There Huan Ran walked with a few soldiers behind him. It seemed like this man was the one assigned to capture Zhang Yi.

However ...

"Are you a child so you can't avoid the rain?" The voice of reproach was heard from An who was standing beside him.

Yi Hua did not really know that An and Huan Ran turned out to be rather close. These two are quiet. So Yi Hua never heard the two of them ever talk to each other.

"I don't seem to be an expert like you. Who would have thought if Zhang Yi dared to enter the forest that became the region where he was foraging from Zhang Yuwen," Huan Ran retorted while ignoring the blood that soaked his clothes.

As has been told so often. That the Li Kingdom restricted people from wandering around at night near this southern forest. It was because that place was Zhang Yuwen's territory.

That was why no one dared to enter this forest, and this small house was never known to exist. Until Yi Hua and An who fell through the ravine, and reached this forest. Either Yi Hua was grateful or not about this fact.

Huan Ran's gaze led to Yi Hua and An who looked unaffected by the slightest drop of blood. It made him crunch because he felt unfair. However, they pass through the same area. Even Huan Ran also did the same thing as An did, namely 'clean up'. But he was still hit by the blood.

Yi Hua sighed when he heard the insinuations from An. Really if he knows that An and Huan Ran are not so good when working together, then he will ask others to solve the case. Isn't it right to argue with each other?

"Close your mouth! If you can slash his head in the High Court, then he's not going back this far." The quiet Huan Ran just became excited in complaining about An's work.

"If you can work well, then you can stop him from using a transfer spell. I've already slashed his hand," An replied calmly.

Without waiting for their debate again, Yi Hua directly walked towards the door. Obviously he was already very anxious about this situation. If they were like this, then Zhang Yi might be able to escape again.

Well, even though Yi Hua wasn't so sure anymore. Especially with the blood around this house. As An said, Zhang Yi was probably waiting for the healing of his hand.

"His hand will not return, even if he is now a demon." That's what An said.

BRACKET!

Without intending to explain to Yi Hua the reason, An had already kicked the door in front of him. Yi Hua's gaze immediately fell on someone who was bowing to an open chest. They do not need to bother looking, because the small house is not so spacious.

"Everything is done, Zhang's official," said Huan Ran, who gestured to arrest Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi only glanced at them. Yi Hua could see that Zhang Yi's hand was still dripping blood. But the blood droplets looked strange, and they were black. His hands were clearly melting. It was as An said. Zhang Yi's hand could not return.

Zhang Yi stretched out his hand to wipe Fang Yin's pale face. The girl looked the same as what Yi Hua saw in her inner experience. What is different is the fact that the girl only remains her body.

"Don't I have to wait for him to wake up again, Prime Minister Huan? What if when he wakes up I'm not next to him?" zhang Yi asked blankly.

However, everyone knew that Fang Yin would not return.

"It's been over five years, Officer Zhang. No matter how much Officer Zhang sacrificed his soul to call Miss Fang, he will not return" said Yi Hua, who began to understand what had happened.

Now Fang Yin was in a weak spirit form. He would not be able to communicate with Zhang Yi. However, he could tell Yi Hua because of the furnace inside Yi Hua's body.

As Xiao had said, Yi Hua could not use his strength, but he could give strength. Fang Yin's soul clung to him as a result of the soul summoning performed by Zhang Yi. So that Fang Yin's soul could ask for strength in the demon furnace inside Yi Hua.

But the girl did not absorb so much, even though she could do it.

All because of ...

"If Miss Fang can return, then she might not be him anymore, Official Zhang Yi," Yi Hua continued.

Fang Yin rejected the darkness, and still wanted to be dead as a human. Not as a demon.

"What do you know?" whispered Zhang Yi's Office quietly.

Yi Hua had just wanted to say again, but Zhang Yi had already stood up rashly. The other man's hand had already grabbed his sword back. However, before Zhang Yi headed towards Yi Hua, a sword lightning stopped him.

However, there are times when a person cannot defend, even if he tries.

"DOLUCH!!!"

Yi Hua's eyes stared pusingly at Zhang Yi who was shouting as he smacked his head on the floor. It all comes down to the pain in the other arm. An moved as ruthlessly as before. The man slashed Zhang Yi's other hand. Even before Zhang Yi could get close to Yi Hua.

"Why would a person like Fang Yin have to undergo such a bad fate? Wh why? Wh why? AKH! *delight!" Zhang Yi roared loudly. Either because of the pain in his hands, or because of his sadness.

But nothing can change what has happened. Even they could only stare at Zhang Yi who was shouting loudly in front of them. Allowing the man to complain about everything that was weighing down on his heart. Or, maybe they just let Zhang Yi die from the injuries he had sustained.

"It was just like a pretty petal, but it was unfortunate and caterpillar-eaten" said Yi Hua, who stared at Fang Yin's body inside the chest.

Zhang Yi preserved Fang Yin's body, but this had been over five years. It was obvious that Yi Hua could see Fang Yin's skin starting to peel off. Who can stop all this?

It feels very painful to call back.

"Sir Yi, can you see it?" zhang Yi asked suddenly.

Actually Yi Hua could not see it. He could only see Fang Yin during the deathly experience. That was because Yi Hua actually had no psychic talent. He could not see spirits or anything.

But, ...

"I saw it."

Sometimes lying is better than honesty.

Xiao said slowly. "This is not a good time to sympathize with others, Yi Hua. Let him understand the truth."

Obviously the real Yi Hua would not do it. But now she was Yi Hua. He just did what he could do. Even if it was just a small thing, but he did not want all this to end very badly.

"She's still in her wedding dress. It's so pretty because she's so happy" Yi Hua said as she nodded at Huan Ran.

This all has to end. The value of true beauty depends on who sees it. To Yi Hua, the appearance Fang Yin had seen back then was an incredible beauty.

Zhang Yi still lowered his head to stare at the floor. Now the man is covered with his own blood. But he no longer roared. The man had calmed down, but no one could see his face.

He kept his head down, as if letting his tears flow with blood.

"What did he say?" zhang Yi asked when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching him.

Yi Hua clenched his hands hard. Very hard to make his hands red. "Stop."

Zhang Yi's cry had touched his blood droplets. Yi Hua had only watched it from afar. Just like Yi Hua, An just stood up while watching everything in silence

"What if I don't stop? I can't stop, Mr. Yi. I can't lose ..." asked Zhang Yi who now raised his head. Even this man could not stop his own words.

Yi Hua picked up an object that Zhang Yi knew very well. Thanks to Liu Xingsheng meeting the head of the Fang family, Fang Yin's father Yi Hua was able to obtain this thing. Then, the old man who had served as Regent gave this thing to Liu Xingsheng.

A pocket of money is a faded yellow. Zhang Yi knew him well. It was Fang Yin's, and the girl thought Zhang Yi wanted to take his money pouch when they collided. Meeting them for the first time.

Zhang Yi's tears flowed again, but he did not rebel. Even when the soldier forced him to stand up from the floor. The man will be punished according to his crime.

I should have been as arrogant as Yi Hua did. After this, maybe I can get a bigger payday, and can be big mouth about my services!

However ... Why was Yi Hua so sad now?

"Miss Fang doesn't want you to commit a crime for her, Official Zhang. Even he possessed the bodies of the beauties you killed just so they wouldn't be in pain at death. If you can't stop, at least think again about this. Stop the suffering of Miss Fang Yin," explained Yi Hua who was now heading towards the wooden chest that was in the middle of the room.

Yi Hua sat down just to put the bag of money on Fang Yin's cold body. There Yi Hua placed a few prayer stanzas for the poor girl. Whatever An says is true. This girl must be freed from the soul summoning circle in order for her to be reincarnated.

This girl took the pain of others at death. And, it happened over and over again. As much as Zhang Yi killed others. How could there be someone like Fang Yin?

"After this, go quietly" whispered Yi Hua.

Then, Yi Hua looked at Zhang Yi for the last time. The man was overwhelmed by an overwhelming sense of surprise. But everything that happened was so bad. Especially when you're too hard to change your existing destiny.

"Do I need to convey Miss Fang's last word to you?" yi Hua asked Zhang Yi who was about to leave the small house.

The soldiers accompanying Zhang Yi also stopped as the man stopped. Just be on guard if this guy is gonna rebel again. However, Zhang Yi only stood up with a face full of tears.

"No need, Mr. Yi."

Zhang Yi already knew what Fang Yin had said to him at the end of his breath. Because, Zhang Yi had already accepted what Fang Yin had said. Especially when they both promised.

And, Fang Yin did not keep his promise. The girl did not come on their wedding day. Zhang Yi could not see the beautiful girl anymore.

"I'm sorry."

Maybe now is the end of this successive beauty murder case.
