Suddenly, a wisp of floating dust appeared on Granny Zhanhua's fist, blocking her punch.
That strand of dust was also pushed back a lot by Granny Zhanhua's punch, but since the duster is a thread and naturally soft, it didn't get hard much.
Then, the voice of the old landlord ca through: "I say, Zhanhua, calm down. If it weren't for Linghua, we would have given you an explanation!"
"Oh dear, that was terrifying, almost lost my life!" The old monkey, seeing the punch blocked, breathed a deep sigh of relief and started babbling again!
"You..." Hearing the old monkey's words, Granny Zhanhua, who had stopped, felt the urge to punch again.
But Elder Huo, sitting right next to the old monkey, punched him down to the ground, then said to Granny Zhanhua, "Alright, I punched him for you, Zhanhua, go back to your seat!"
"Hmph!" Zhanhua snorted coldly, then returned to her seat.
Zhanhua knew that Elder Huo's punch didn't cause any harm, it was just to give both sides a way out.
And after seeing Zhanhua return to her seat, the old monkey got up from the ground, no longer provoking Granny Zhanhua, but sat quietly in his seat without a word.
No one was stirring Granny Zhanhua's nerves anymore, after all, they were all feeling uneasy because Linghua had been the most beloved little sister among them, even during their past adventures, Linghua was responsible for cooking, doing laundry, and taking care of everyone's daily needs.
Everyone was extrely pained about their little sister Linghua.
"Didn't Linghua die over a hundred years ago? How could she have resurrected now? And why has she beco like this without reaching out to us?" said the real person Chiyuan!
"Linghua is dead; that can't be Linghua. Soone is definitely playing with her soul," Granny Zhanhua said seriously. "I can't believe my little sister would beco like this. I know my sister, she was kind-hearted and would never disrespect life."
"It doesn't matter if that person is Linghua or not, we all feel her aura is there. So she must have sothing to do with Linghua, and we need to find out who she is. If she really is Linghua, we need to know why she's beco like this. If not, then why does she carry Linghua's aura? We need answers!" declared the real person Taichu.
"None of us want that person to be Linghua, but if she is, Zhanhua, don't let your emotions cloud your judgnt. Do what needs to be done. Rember, Linghua has been gone for over a century, and if she did co back, why didn't she co to us first?" Elder Huo chid in.
If they could help it, none of them wanted that person to be Linghua. If she was, however, for the sake of everyone, they wouldn't hesitate.
This incident had blown up, and it wasn't sothing that could be easily resolved. Although most people might not know, the person Taichu did, and most of the Heaven-Reaching Town folk couldn't be saved.
Even if they were all saved, they wouldn't live long because their souls were contaminated. There's even a high chance that when they died, the evil Qi would erupt, turning them into demons.
Therefore, after this matter is settled, Taichu would once again gather the righteous path to discuss how to deal with the people of Heaven-Reaching Town.
"I... I understand!" Granny Zhanhua said, tears silently rolling down her cheeks.
Granny Zhanhua really didn't know how to face her little sister anymore. When Linghua passed away, Granny Zhanhua was out, so she didn't see Linghua one last ti, and when she returned to the Won's Village, she heard that Linghua had died and had been buried.
This struck her hard; overnight, her hair turned white.
"Now that we've confird the matter about Linghua, let's talk about Tianfan. Tianfan, detail how you annihilated those demons, maybe we've overlooked so details!" Taichu first spoke to everyone before addressing Ye Tianfan.
"Yes, Sect Leader!" Ye Tianfan stood up, bowed to everyone, and said: "Earlier, I was patrolling outside the Array and saw a demon struggling to charge out. The Array had already bulged up, so I waited on top of that bulge. Soon, the demon broke through the Array, so I used the secret technique of the Tai Fire Peak and destroyed it."
Tianfan suddenly seed to rember sothing and continued: "Right, when that demon erged, its energy was exhausted, and it had likely consud all its energy before breaking through. It had also absorbed so evil Qi before erging.
After I wiped it out, I saw so sand and stones materializing where it perished. These stones started to gather into a human shape. Curious, I infused a bit of spiritual power to see how these stones would react.
I found that the stones into which I infused spiritual power slowed down significantly, so I infused more. The more I infused, the slower they gathered. When I had infused about eight parts of my total spiritual power, they stopped gathering and just stayed suspended in mid-air. As I continued to infuse spiritual power, they began to disintegrate more, until they completely fell apart!
That's everything!"
Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's account, everyone exchanged looks.
Then Taichu spoke: "From what Tianfan has said, I draw two conclusions. First, the evil Qi issue—it's very likely that the demon absorbed the Qi first, leading to its disintegration. Second, perhaps we should obliterate the enemy to dust before letting them resurrect through the sand, allowing us to infuse spiritual power into the stones during their recovery."
"Alright, I'll test the first conclusion. It's easier for to use my Magical Treasure to inject evil Qi into those demons' bodies." The old landlord volunteered.
"Good. If that's the case, then the second conclusion is up to you to verify!"
