Chapter 47: Making Up for Her Mistakes

After all, the soul-capturing array existed and developed for so many years. Yun Qin’s strength alone was not enough to break it. She had to rely on the talisman.

However, using the talisman this way was extremely dangerous. Yun Qin did not even estimate a 50% chance of success.

Taking a deep breath, Yun Qin thought of Song Yin, who died of illness at the age of 35 in her previous life.

If the curse had not robbed him of his life, then maybe their ending would not have been so tragic in her previous life.

Gritting her teeth, Yun Qin steeled her heart.

Regardless of whether she succeeded or not, she already repaid Song Yin for his kindness. It was up to fate whether she would end up joining hands with him in the future.

Placing the life talisman in her palm, Yun Qin looked through the ancient book in her mind i how to use the talisman. At the same time, she kept using her evil energy to observe the stone statue ghosts on the other side.

After confirming once again, Yun Qin injected a small amount of her mana into the talisman to activate it.

Just as the dark brown blood writings on the yellow talisman paper started to glow with golden light, Yun Qin suddenly felt a scorching power coming from her palm!

She instinctively wanted to throw this power around, but she gritted her teeth and endured the pain in her palm. She controlled the power and poured it into the ground.

At this moment, the stone statue felt a strong blast of mana fluctuation. Its round eyes suddenly moved in Yun Qin’s direction.

Yun Qin wanted to hold on to this power that could kill all living beings a bit longer to study it, however, she did not expect that she could not control it for too long.

Forcibly suppressing the power and not releasing it was already difficult, let alone controlling it to scan the array formation and break it.

Just as the soul-capturing array glowed with golden light, the stone statue ghost immediately locked onto Yun Qin’s position. The statue rose from the ground and rushed towards her with a sinister smile.

At this moment, Yun Qin saw that the array cores were beneath every willow tree. Willow trees were perfect vessels to absorb evil energy and ghosts, providing an endless supply of power to the array.

Beneath the pond, countless vengeful souls were trapped there, howling at Yun Qin through the formation array.

Yun Qin knew that she would be facing a tough battle as soon as she broke the array.

However, after she scanned the formation array, she immediately threw the talisman’s power, along with all the evil energy in her body, towards the array cores.

In an instant, countless souls howled in pain. The souls surging out of the array forced Yun Qin to take a few steps back.

Taking steps back allowed Yun Qin to dodge the first wave of sneak attacks from the stone statue ghost.

When she saw this strange humanoid monster appear before her, Yun Qin’s heart didn’t even flinch because the ghosts that were escaping from the array were even more troublesome.

Yun Qin activated her ability and instantly maximized her ability to absorb evil energy.

Her current state was like a bottomless pit, fanatically sucking in the evil energy around her.

Before the stone statue ghost got close, it noticed that Yun Qin didn’t feel right. It immediately jumped back a few steps and dived into the pond.

The weaker ghosts were already getting absorbed into Yun Qin’s body. Evil energy flowed out from them and into Yun Qin’s body.

For a moment, the ghosts’ cries rose and fell one after another. In the end, they all disappeared into thin air.

This was the first time Yun Qin felt the horror of the ability–her ability to absorb the evil energy in this world–that Hades gave her.

Just as she felt that the evil energy in her body was overflowing, Yun Qin suddenly felt a wave of dizziness hit her. She immediately fell from the small courtyard that was filled with ghosts and evil energy into a gloomy hall.

Before Yun Qin could regain her senses, she felt a wave of displeasure crashing down on her head. “It’s only been a few days since I released you back to the human world and you’re already causing trouble?”

This was Hades’ voice, the ultimate ruler of trillions of ghosts in the underworld.

“I…”

Yun Qin was a little stunned. She didn’t understand what Hades was blaming her with.

“Take a look for yourself. How many ghosts escaped from the array that you broke?”

Hades waved his hand and displayed a scene in front of Yun Qin. The scene was when Yun Qin activated her ability to absorb the ghosts and evil energy that surged out from the array. However, there were still many powerful ghosts that escaped and disappeared into the night.

“This… please forgive me.”

Yun Qin had nothing to say. She did not expect that her actions would cause such a huge disaster and release so many ghosts to escape into the world.

“Hmph, did you really think that the ability I gave you was that powerful? If that’s the case, why would I entrust a little evil spirit like you to carry out your duties in the human world?”

Yun Qin could only bow on the ground and nervously prepare to receive Hades’ wrath.

“Anyway.”

However, Hades changed his tone and said, “You did collect a lot of evil energy during this mission, so I’ll consider your mission as complete this time. How about this, I will give you a chance to make up for your mistakes.”
