Surprise! The popular villain is actually Long Aotian's wife

Qi Wu Yue and Xiao Lin walked side by side, "What about the disciples of Piyang Mansion? Are there any problems?"

Xiao Lin said: "He wanted to release the evil spirit in the forbidden spirit bottle, but I caught him and temporarily tied him up in the previous mansion."

Qi Wu Yue raised his eyebrows: "Release the evil spirit, could it be that this evil spirit was assigned by Piyang Prefecture?"

Xiao Lin said slowly: "Nine out of ten."

He glanced back at the child following them with a questioning look.

Qi Wu Yue: "He, this kid is a ghost, but since he is mixed in with those kids, he must know something."

His cultivation was suppressed too low, and it was dark at the time, with a heavy yin energy. No wonder he hadn't noticed it before.

It was not until dawn that he noticed the strange aura coming from the little ghost.

"I'm not a ghost, I'm a spirit." The weird child held a huge jade umbrella behind him, clenched his hands, and couldn't help but corrected silently.

"Oh, it's just one word missing, not a lot." Qi Wu Yue didn't care at all.

"There's only one character difference between man and woman. Are you a man or a woman?" the weird child asked loudly.

puff.

This knife is inserted too accurately.

If Little Butterfly were here, she would have laughed it off. It was rare for her to see her father being humiliated.

Qi Wu Yue: “…”

Qi Wu Yue: "Okay, little Yin Ling."

Then he kept silent.

Seeing Qi Wu Yue's aggrieved look, Xiao Lin raised his hand and stroked his hair.

The two men and one ghost returned to the mansion.

The blue-clothed disciple was tied up and trapped in the yard with spiritual power chains. Only after being forced to question by the two did he admit it.

The blue-clothed disciple swallowed nervously, "It wasn't me. I didn't mean to let the evil spirit go on purpose. It was the Palace Master who ordered me to do it."

Xiao Lin: "What do you want me to do?"

The blue-clothed disciple trembled under his gaze.

This man had given him the elixir before tying him up in the yard, so at this time there was almost no trace of the wound on his shoulder.

Knowing that Xiao Lin was a man with a gentle appearance but a cruel heart compared to Qi Wu Yue who was beside him, he was so scared that his hands and feet turned cold when he saw Xiao Lin's gentle smile.

"The evil spirit in the mansion was specially placed here by the mansion lord. Even those children were kidnapped by us disciples on purpose, just to make you think that you have successfully eliminated the evil spirit and completed the mission. Go back to where you should go and no longer interfere in the affairs here." The blue-clothed disciple closed his eyes and said in one breath.

“That is to say, the woman in green skirt in the Forbidden Spirit Bottle is not the real evil spirit that brings disaster to the mortal world.” Qi Wu Yue sneered.

Although he had long been aware of the anomalies in Piyang Prefecture, and that it was most likely not as aboveboard as it appeared on the surface, it was still somewhat laughable to hear someone from Piyang Prefecture admit to being corrupt.

The blue-clothed disciple's eyes suddenly sparkled with tears, and he choked up and said, "No, two immortals, the one you caught in the bottle is my wife, she is Shanniang, she is really not an evil spirit, not an evil spirit!"

As the blue-clothed disciple spoke, he burst into tears without caring about his dignity at all.

Qi Wu Yue and Xiao Lin were both shocked.

"What?" "Your wife!"

"But the evil aura on her is real and cannot be fake. How could an ordinary person have such an aura?" Xiao Lin reacted and questioned.

The blue-clothed disciple looked confused, and then said angrily: "I don't know why, but Shan Niang was taken away by them and thrown into a big iron furnace. When she came out, she looked like a half-human, half-ghost."

"You two immortals are both powerful and knowledgeable. Please help me save Shanniang. Please save Shanniang!"

"As long as you can save my mother, I will kowtow to you and work like a slave for you!"

"Shanniang has a kind nature and has never meant to harm anyone. But now she is under the control of the Lord of Piyang Mansion and has to do things that go against her conscience." The blue-clothed disciple knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

Xiao Lin helped him up and said, "You get up first. We will investigate the truth of the matter. If what you said is true and the girl in green skirt did not commit any murder, I can..." send her to reincarnation.

Xiao Lin paused and said, "I'll help you."

The woman in the green skirt is no longer a living person. If she stays here with her evil spirit, she will sooner or later degenerate into a ghost and be killed by the forbidden thunder curse, and her soul will be shattered.

And reincarnation is the best outcome.

The blue-clothed disciples did not understand what this meant and were overjoyed.

Qi Wu Yue pondered and said, "Little Yin Ling also said that some people use souls to refine magic tools. However, this kind of magic is only known by ghost cultivators. Could it be that the Lord of Piyang Mansion is involved with ghost cultivators?"

"Are ghost cultivators the kind of cultivators who use soul flags as magical weapons?" the blue-clothed disciple asked.

Qi Wu Yue narrowed his eyes, "Yes, have you seen it?"

The blue-robed disciple said nervously, "I, I once happened to see a gray-robed monk entering and leaving the Palace Master's study. He was holding a blood-black soul flag."

Qi Wu Yue opened his eyelids, "Hmm?"

There was a hint of disbelief in his silver eyes, and then he sneered.

Xiao Lin's expression remained unchanged as he continued, "It seems that what you saw that day was a ghost cultivator."

Qi Wu Yue asked: "So that's why you want to open the forbidden spirit bottle and release her privately?"

The blue-clothed disciple wiped away his tears and nodded repeatedly.

Xiao Lin said calmly, "But we can't let her out right now. The evil spirit in her body can easily hurt people, and keeping her in the forbidden spirit bottle can ensure that she will not be burned by the sunlight. This is the best way to deal with it at the moment. I hope you can understand."

Although I was a little surprised to hear the news at first, there are actually clues to follow.

The girl in green skirt who was sealed in the Forbidden Spirit Bottle looked at the disciple in blue skirt many times. The two must know each other, but no one expected that they were husband and wife.

Now one of them is a cultivator, and the other is an evil ghost.

Across the Forbidden Spirit Bottle, the blue-clothed disciple looked at the green-skirted girl with red eyes, raised his head and said, "I understand everything the Immortal said."

"Shanniang, you stay inside first. I believe the two immortals will let you out after we have investigated the truth of the matter."

The dark blue gas in the bottle moved, as if responding to what he said.

"So much trouble is being made just to protect a real evil spirit, so where is she? And why would the Lord, who is the highest law enforcer in Piyang Prefecture, protect an evil spirit?" Xiao Lin asked the questions that were in his mind.

"Could this evil spirit have any connection with the Lord of Piyang Mansion?" Qi Wu Yue guessed, touching his chin.

The blue-robed disciple shook his head and said softly with a trembling voice: "It's not about protecting, it's about fear."

"Afraid? The identity of the Lord of Pi Yang Mansion enjoys convenience in the mortal world. As long as he is in this world, no one's cultivation can surpass his. What reason does he have to be afraid of a small evil spirit?" Qi Wu Yue looked doubtful.

The blue-robed disciple shuddered and said, "But what if this evil spirit is immortal?"
