It's okay, it's easy to overthrow the heroine's system

Chu Yangjing, who was staying in the elegant room, was quietly sipping tea. Opposite him was the inn that Lingyun Sect had just checked into.

He picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip. Then he frowned slightly, as if he had sensed something, and turned his head to look at the inn. The next moment, Bai Jinyue came out.

Their eyes met in the air, and Chu Yangjing smiled at her. He was graceful and gentlemanly, and this smile made Bai Jinyue's heart skip a beat uncontrollably.

"Master, this..."

The subordinate hiding in the dark wanted to say something but hesitated. After concealing his breath, this was the first time his master was discovered.

"No problem, just let her come up."

Chu Yangjing still had a gentle smile on his face, but a hint of calculation flashed in his eyes.

"Yes."

The subordinate saluted towards Chu Yangjing, then came downstairs and invited Bai Jinyue up.

Soon, she came in front of Chu Yangjing.

"Third Prince."

Bai Jinyue was about to salute, but Chu Yangjing held her. His fingertips held Bai Jinyue's hand imperceptibly, which made the latter stunned.

Bai Jinyue raised her eyes and met Chu Yangjing's smiling eyes. He was very careful and let go of her hand after helping Bai Jinyue up, as if the action just now was just unintentional.

"Friend Bai, there is no need to be so polite. Please take a seat first."

He made a gesture of invitation, Bai Jinyue thanked him, and then sat down gently opposite him.

"Why is Fellow Daoist Bai here?"

"I just came here to gain experience with my fellow brothers and sisters."

Bai Jinyue smiled vaguely and said that she had just checked Chu Yangjing's favorability towards her, and it was still at zero.

This means that the person in front of her is not interested in her at all, so why did he invite her to the teahouse?

Bai Jinyue began to have some doubts about Chu Yangjing.

Chu Yangjing nodded upon hearing this, his expression remained unchanged, except for a hint of darkness in his eyes when he lowered his eyes.

"That's really a coincidence. I'm going to play here for a while. If Brother Bai Dao has nothing to do, you can come and find me..."

.........

As soon as Jiang Jingmo entered Ji's house, he felt something was wrong. This place was extremely gloomy and too quiet.

They followed Ji Chuhe closely. Since they saw the gateboy when they entered the mansion, they had not seen another servant in this huge courtyard.

"Why do I feel it's so eerie here..." Nan Xun muttered, but before he could finish his words, Ji Chuhe turned around and covered his mouth suddenly.

"In the Ji family, don't talk too much during the day."

Ji Chuhe's message rang in everyone's mind.

Hearing this, Nan Xun nodded hurriedly. Ji Chuhe then let go of his hand and continued to lead them towards the backyard, his pace obviously quickening a lot.

When everyone saw this, although they were full of doubts, they swallowed their questions and obediently followed Ji Chuhe into the backyard.

The backyard was even weirder. Large pieces of black cloth covered the entire backyard tightly, completely blocking out the bright sunshine. The environment was extremely dark, with only the faint candlelight to illuminate everyone.

There was still no one to be seen. The eerie atmosphere made everyone's scalp tingle.

Jiang Jingmo unconsciously recalled the scenes in later horror movies. The current situation was exactly the same, as if a red-clothed ghost would jump out in the next second.

Thinking of this, Jiang Jingmo couldn't help but feel a little horrified.

Ji Chuhe brought everyone to the room prepared for them and sent them in one by one.

After everyone was in the room, her voice transmission sounded in their minds again.

"During the day, the Ji family will not come out to greet guests. You should take a rest first. Someone will naturally come to look for you in the evening."

As her words faded away, everyone was confused.

Ji Chuhe never mentioned anything about the Ji family on the road, but there are not so many coincidences. Jiang Jingmo has guessed that this might also be one of the five major families.

But after meeting the two families, the situation of the Ji family is indeed the strangest.

Jiang Jingmo looked at the table in the room. There was a candle burning on it. The small light was a little dim, and there was not a single window in such a big room.

In the dim environment and closed house, Jiang Jingmo suddenly understood how Ke Su had felt over the years. It was so depressing that it made him feel suffocated.

If she had been locked up for ten years, she would have gone crazy.

Jiang Jingmo sighed. Everything that happened in the ancient Yin clan would stay in her mind for a long time.

Before she could think about it for a moment, the door of her room was slowly pushed open, and the huge hat on Ke Su's head caught Jiang Jingmo's eyes.

Jiang Jingmo raised his eyebrows.

"This place is too weird, isn't it? When I was in the room just now, I thought I was locked in a forbidden area again."

Ke Su's voice rang in Jiang Jingmo's mind.

"What? Are you scared?"

Jiang Jingmo looked at her with a smile, and the former had taken off the hat on his head, revealing his white hair.

"I can't say I'm scared, but I always think of the things that happened in the Ancient Yin Clan, and I feel a little uneasy."

Ke Su smiled bitterly and climbed onto Jiang Jingmo's bed, sitting next to the edge of the bed.

“…It’s all over.”

Jiang Jingmo didn't know how to comfort her after hearing this, so he could only say this.

"Maybe."

Ke Su looked at the flickering candlelight and pursed her lips gently.

"Tell me, how many people did my father kill?"

"I don't know, but the Yin-transforming Gu is not easy to refine. It will probably require people from several cities."

Jiang Jingmo transmitted the message, and her expression changed from the previous relaxed look to a bit heavier.

Ke Su was silent, the candlelight reflected in his eyes.

"Will you hate me?"

Ke Su's voice sounded again, this time with a deep sense of loneliness.

"He committed these murders for me. If it weren't for me, those people wouldn't have died..."

Jiang Jingmo was stunned for a moment when she heard that, then she smiled and touched Ke Su's hair.

"No, what does this have to do with you? When he committed those sins, you knew nothing and you were also experiencing pain at that time."

“Thank you for thinking that…”

Ke Su smiled, feeling somewhat relieved. She thought about the expressions on her faces and the whispers among the Gu Yin tribe members during the days when her father died.

Because of her, Kevin killed so many people.

Because of her, their beloved patriarch died.

All this is because of her.

She didn't know how people outside the Gu Yin clan would view her, and she was very confused.

Will they say like Jiang Jingmo that it has nothing to do with her? Or will they say that these people died because of you...

Ke Wen loved Ke Su deeply, but everything he had done for Ke Su now weighed heavily on Ke Su.

In the end, the person who most wanted to give her freedom almost destroyed her freedom.
