Wedding Dress

Feng Nian raised her head and looked in the direction of the Mountain God Temple. The black energy had condensed even more. "For those whose five senses are sealed, their closest kin need to be willing to sacrifice their life span and use those years of their lives to wake them up. The success rate is only 50%. Are you sure his closest kin will be willing?"

Wei Cong frowned and lowered his head to think about what Feng Nian had said. A close relative meant that they were related to Cai Yulin by blood. However, Cai Yulin had just returned to the Cai family not long ago. Would the Cai family be willing?

"Let's leave this place first. We'll talk later." She realized that not only was the black gas condensing very quickly, but it was also beginning to spread in all directions. It was better to leave this place first. Otherwise, there was no guarantee that nothing would happen again.

After leaving the Mountain God Temple, Wei Cong was taken away by the Wei Family. She returned to her rented house.

She took out a piece of white bone from her pocket and shone it under the sunlight. Black threads slowly wrapped around the white bone. This white bone was originally hidden in the Keeper's walking stick, which was also the source of his strength. After the walking stick broke, the white bone fell and she brought it back.

The female ghost brewed a cup of tea and was about to pass it to Feng Nian when the black thread on the white bone suddenly flew towards the female ghost.

The female ghost was shocked, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground. The tea spilled all over the ground, but she could not avoid the black thread. The black thread wrapped around the female ghost's neck and turned into a small black snake. The small snake tightened its grip, and the female ghost's pale face turned ashen. Her eyes suddenly rolled to the ground.

Feng Nian grabbed with her bare hands and pulled down the small snake formed from the black thread. She used a talisman to burn the snake.

"You've just woken up and you're already so domineering. That's not good." A smile appeared on her lips. She bit her finger and drew a talisman in the air. The talisman slowly gathered and wrapped around the white bones.

This white bone was an evil thing from the Mountain God Temple. It had just woken up and was in a hurry to obtain power. It did not even let go of the ghost aura of the female ghost.

"Alright, don't be afraid." Feng Nian turned around and comforted the female ghost. Unfortunately, she had not even taken half a sip of the freshly brewed tea.

Seeing her staring regretfully at the spilled tea on the ground, the female ghost pressed her eyes back into her sockets and tactfully brewed another cup.

After drinking a cup of hot tea, she began to plan her next step. With the white bone in her hand, the person in the Mountain God Temple would definitely not let it go. Instead of waiting for it to come, it was better for her to take the initiative and keep the power in her hands.

After making up her mind, she lay on the bed and slept for a while. Otherwise, how could she have the strength to deal with the heretics?

The female ghost at the side looked at her, who had fallen asleep as soon as she touched the pillow, and sighed helplessly. It had finally folded the blanket properly. There was still a large pool of tea to clean up on the ground outside. It had to work so hard as a ghost.

In her dream, she returned to the Feng family's ancestral hall.

This time, in front of a side hall in the ancestral hall, she gently pushed open the door of the side hall. The layout of the side hall surprised her. The tasseled curtains swayed with the wind, and there was a window on the left. There was a rosewood dressing table by the window, and on the table was a rosewood bronze mirror and jewelry box. It was obviously a woman's boudoir. How could there be a woman's boudoir in the ancestral hall?

On the clothes rack at the side hung an exquisite wedding dress. It had wide sleeves and a narrow waist. The complicated embroidered flowers were sewn with golden thread. The sleeves were covered with golden beads that were neatly embedded on them. Strangely, this wedding dress was actually black.

"Black wedding dress, buried in the pit. If it doesn't enter the pit, birth would be cursed. A curse on the Feng family birth a Yin energy fetus."

As soon as she saw the wedding dress, she seemed to hear the song that her aunt, Feng Hengxin, kept chanting.

She walked forward. When she reached out to touch the black wedding dress, the golden bead on her sleeve suddenly transformed into a golden snake that pounced at her with its mouth wide open.

The sudden appearance of the golden snake woke Feng Nian up from her sleep. Her head was covered in cold sweat. Everything in the dream just now was so real.

The ancestral hall had always been a solemn and sacred place for the ancestors of the major families. How could the side hall of the Feng family's ancestral hall be set up as a woman's boudoir? What was even stranger was that the black wedding dress was inside. What was the meaning of the song that Aunt had been singing?

The rapid ringing of her phone interrupted her train of thought.

When she arrived at the entrance of the alley, she was greeted by the entire Cai family and Wei Cong.

"Master, please save my child." As soon as Chen Chunni saw Feng Nian, she could not wait to kneel down.

When she exerted force, Chen Chunni could no longer kneel. Seeing this, Cai Yanzhen knew that Feng Nian did not want to accept Chen Chunni's bow. She also supported Chen Chunni and advised softly, "Mom, don't be anxious. Since the master is here, he will definitely save Brother."

Feng Nian looked up at Wei Cong who was standing in the corner.

Sensing her gaze, Wei Cong shrank back. He was in a hurry to save Cai Yulin, so he told the Cai family everything in detail, including Feng Nian's existence. He wasn't deliberately doing this behind Feng Nian's back.

She retracted her gaze and looked at the anxious Chen Chunni in front of her. She could not reject her. "You should know what happened. I can bring Cai Yulin out on the way. However, his five senses are sealed. If you want him to wake up, you have to discuss it yourselves."

"Yes, I'm willing to shorten my lifespan," Chen Chunni shouted without thinking. She had lost her son for a full 10 years. She would not let him leave her side again.

"Then we'll talk about everything after I bring him back." After saying this, Feng Nian turned around and left. Her departure allowed the Cai family to still have time to think about whether they were willing to pay the price with their lives. It was also because the heretics had already begun to recover. They could not delay any longer.

When the last ray of light in the sky disappeared behind the black curtain, the sky turned completely dark.

Feng Nian arrived at the foot of the mountain. She looked up and saw that the foot of the mountain was covered in a thin layer of frost. The higher she went, the thicker the frost became. The bushes covered in frost had already turned yellow.

This was caused by the Mountain God Temple's heretic absorbing the surrounding vitality in order to recover its strength as soon as possible. It seemed that she had to act as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would not be easy to deal with it when it completely recovered.

She walked towards the top of the mountain. As soon as she stepped into the foot of the mountain, hissing sounds came from all directions. She did not need to look to know that it was the black snakes she had encountered today.

Those black snakes were larger than when she saw them that morning. As the heretic's power increased, they also grew. However, they were not in a hurry to pounce on Feng Nian when they saw her because they did not forget that the Flame Talismans she waved today had burned many snakes, and some of them were killed by her bare hands.

"I don't have time to waste with you guys." She directly took out the flame talisman in her hand. How troublesome.

The black snakes blocking her way did not pose much of an obstacle to her. She walked from the foot of the mountain all the way to the entrance of the Mountain God Temple.

Unlike earlier that day, the Yin energy of the Mountain God Temple was thicker and denser. The ground outside was covered in a thick layer of frost. If one was not careful, their feet would slip.

The expression on her face became more serious. The heretics recovered very quickly. She wondered how Cai Yulin, who was trapped in the Mountain God Temple, was doing.

Without further thought, she walked towards the tightly shut Mountain God Temple. As soon as she reached the temple, the originally tightly shut door suddenly opened inwards.

The piercing sound of the door opening broke the silence.
