When Pei Ji'an received the message and went to the Xiao Family to investigate the separate courtyard, the Thousand-faced Monster Hand had already vanished without a trace.
It was then that the Xiao Family realized Chun Chan had long been dead, and the one who had entered with them earlier might have been a significant criminal fugitive from the court.
Mrs. Xiao's entire legs went weak, and she collapsed onto a chair.
"If anything happens because of this, wouldn't it be my fault?"
Ji Nishang hurriedly poured her a cup of hot tea and handed it over, "Aunt, don't feel bad. You came here for Nuannuan's sake. It's only natural to be concerned and make mistakes because of love."
Since the "lost corpse" incident last time, Xiao Nuan had been having nightmares every night and her mental state was deteriorating.
Mrs. Xiao thought of taking her to Hanshan Temple to pray for blessings, seeking Buddha's protection to ward off evil.
Who would have expected such a thing to happen?
