Chapter 127 - 108
"If we’re talking about dreams of evil wraiths, I have had similar nightmares myself," Chen Li muttered to himself as he stepped outside.
However, he had not had any since that one time.
"It must only be a coincidence, a case of ’daytime thoughts become nighttime dreams,’ after all."
The evil wraith he had encountered during the move had been blocked by an Evil-Repelling Talisman and had not even reached him before it was scared away by the Yu Family’s old ancestor. He had not been affected in the slightest, which was entirely different from Bai Jinwang’s situation.
He shook his head, no longer frightening himself.
...
Two days later, when Bai Jinwang’s health had slightly improved, he started rushing about, visiting relatives and friends, arranging his affairs. One by one, he gave away the concubines and maidservants in his home. From time to time, sobs could be heard from next door as scenes of parting in life and death unfolded.
"Alas, this is all fate."
In the evening, in the light of the setting sun, Bai Jinwang’s wrinkled, old face was tinged with an ineffable sense of sorrow and late-life gloom.
Watching his beautiful, flower-like concubine being dragged away by his friend, looking back three times with each step, her tearful, mournful eyes brimming with unspoken words, his heart ached, and he could not help but cry bitterly.
"If you are so reluctant, why send her away?" Chen Li stepped out and saw this human tragedy unfold, unable to hold back his words.
