(Here, the elves wish everyone a happy new year and all the best. The elves wish everyone a happy new year.）
Night, Ren Manor.
The spacious living room on the first floor was converted into a mourning hall.
Ren Tingting guarded the mourning hall, sobbing as she burned the ghost paper.
Old Master Ren's sudden death was no less than the collapse of the sky to her. Ever since she was young, in her heart, Old Master Ren was the 'heaven' that sheltered her from the wind and rain. Now that this 'heaven' had collapsed, it could no longer shelter her from the wind and rain. She had to shoulder the entire Ren family.
She spent the entire day busy. Not only did she have to accept the management of the Ren residence and the Ren family's business, but she also had to organize Old Master Ren's funeral and set up the mourning hall. If not for Zhou Ying and Wen Cai's help, she would have collapsed.
Even so, after a busy day, Ren Tingting's face still looked very haggard and tired. There were still light traces of tears on her beautiful face. Under the contrast of the sparks in the brazier, she looked very pitiful, making Wen Cai, who was at the side, unable to take his eyes off her.
Looking at the haggard Ren Tingting, Tianyu shook her head. No matter how high Ren Tingting's cultivation was, she was just a little girl who had lost her father.
"Tingting, you should go and rest!”Looking at the tired Ren Tingting, Tianyu comforted her.
Ren Tingting shook her head stubbornly and said," No, it's alright. In the past, it was Dad who guarded me. Now, I have to collect the spirit for Dad for these seven days!"”
Seeing the stubborn Ren Tingting, Tianyu did not persuade her anymore. After all, it was not a big problem for a cultivator to not sleep for seven days. If he tried to persuade her, she might end up doing the opposite.
At this moment, Ren Tingting started crying again. She blamed herself and said," It's all my fault. If I hadn't slept so soundly, Dad wouldn't have died."”
Hearing Ren Tingting's words, Tianyu immediately began to doubt," Tingting, tell me what happened at that time!”
Ren Tingting stopped crying and said sadly," It's like this. I was very sleepy that night, so I went to bed early." When I woke up again, Dad was already…" Ren Tingting cried on Tianyu's body.
Hearing Ren Tingting's words, Tianyu immediately felt that something was wrong. One had to know that Ren Tingting was cultivating! How could he sleep so soundly? Every cultivator had a Sudden Inspiration. Once something happened to their relatives, they would sense it. But according to Ren Tingting, she was in a deep sleep. That was impossible.
"Did you sleep until dawn? Do you feel that something is wrong?" Tian Yu asked doubtfully.
"At that time, I seemed to smell the fragrance of peach blossoms. There are no peach blossoms in this season, and I felt very sleepy when I smelled the fragrance of peach blossoms. I also suspected that someone was behind this, but I didn't know who it was.”At this point, a cold gaze appeared in Ren Tingting's eyes. After all, she wasn't an idiot. Someone was definitely up to something so obvious!
"As expected!" As expected, Tianyu had long realized that something was wrong. He remembered that in the past few days, Tianyu had also smelled the fragrance of peach blossoms. However, with Tianyu's physique, that fragrance had no effect at all. However, Tianyu did not care about this. In the face of absolute strength, any schemes were useless.
Tian Yu sneered and said," Looks like someone is playing tricks behind the scenes!" But why didn't I kill you as well?”
Although Tianyu's words were not pleasant to hear, Ren Tingting knew that Tianyu was right. Killing her father and leaving a genius like her behind was completely illogical. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that it was definitely a conspiracy!
Ren Tingting let out a cold killing intent, her eyes flashing with a cold light. I want to kill him to avenge my father.”
Then Tianyu patted Ren Tingting's back and comforted her,"Don't worry! I will help you!"
In front of the mourning hall.
Ren Tingting and Tianyu were beside the brazier, burning the ghost notes.
Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew past, causing the candles in the mourning hall and the flames in the braziers to sway.
Tian Yu's heart tightened. His eyes focused, and he subconsciously looked up at the door.
Outside the door, there were only a few hazy lanterns illuminating the surroundings, making it seem a little dark.
At this moment, a cold wind blew past, causing the flowers and trees outside to rustle. It was as if there was a ferocious beast lurking in the deep darkness, slowly approaching...
However, after a while, there was no movement.
After a while, Tian Yu's tensed consciousness relaxed slightly and he heaved a sigh of relief. However, he was constantly paying attention to his surroundings. Tianyu did not want to fail in the gutter!
Dong dong dong…
At this moment, the sound of the night watch rang out.
Tian Yu's eyes focused." It's the third watch.”
The middle of the night was the favorite time for zombies and ghosts to appear.
All of a sudden, Tian Yu's heart became vigilant again.
"Pay attention, the zombies may be coming!”
Ren Tingting took out a large number of talismans and held them tightly in her hands, ready to attack at any time.
Peng!
At this moment, the door seemed to have been hit by a huge force. It fell to the ground with a loud bang, raising a cloud of dust.
" Zombies are here?!"
Wen Cai, who was sleeping like a dead pig in the master's chair, suddenly quivered and woke up. He quickly got up and hid behind a pillar at the side. He stuck his head out and looked outside.
Outside the door, in the dust, a figure was jumping and approaching quickly.
In a few breaths, the figure jumped to the entrance of the mourning hall and revealed his face.
The figure in front of them was wearing a Qing Dynasty court dress. His face was rotten and full of holes. He looked completely different. However, whether it was Tian Yu, Wen Cai, or Ren Tingting, the three of them knew the identity of the person as soon as they met because they had all seen him not long ago.
He was Old Master Ren.
