Chapter 485 - 371: I Am a Good Person
No one paid any attention to the little boy, leaving him to his disbelief inside the halo of light.
Once Little White’s emotions had calmed down, Kong Jian finally breathed a sigh of relief. This time, he looked at the little boy as if he were already dead.
He’d made Da Guo so upset; he was a dead man walking.
’Maybe he’s already dead. Well, he can just die again.’
"Sister, I saw Mom and the others." Little White’s voice was thick and nasal, clearly still partially lost in her emotions.
Perhaps she was nostalgic, unwilling to leave, longing for them.
"Da Guo, I’ll get revenge for you. I’ll kill this monster."
Kong Jian pointed at the little boy.
Little White looked at the little boy in the halo and shook her head. "It was my fault for being careless. It doesn’t have much to do with him. Besides, he let me see my mom and my friends. If he hadn’t had such malicious intentions, I would have even thanked him. Little brother, you can decide what to do."
As soon as she finished speaking, Little White stood up from the Taishi Chair and walked over to the side of the halo.
"Hey, you little thing, what did you do to Tie Dan? She’s a friend of mine! If you don’t talk, we’ll...! My little brother will tear you to shreds!"
"Heh heh."
"Still laughing? You think I don’t know what kind of vile thing you are? I know you’re not human, but surely you don’t think we can’t get rid of you? We’re not ordinary humans, you know."
The little boy fell silent, looking at Little White without a word.
No matter how much Little White cursed him out, he remained silent.
Wen Ying walked over, hoisted up the Taishi Chair, and said, "This would make good firewood for a barbecue."
The boy’s expression instantly grew tense, but he kept his mouth shut.
Wen Ying reached out and chopped at the back of the chair. CRACK!
A sizable crack appeared in the wood.
The little boy shuddered, his body swaying as if he were about to fall. "Stop! You’re a Demon!"
"Don’t tell me... this Taishi Chair is your real body? Are you a chair spirit?"
Little White’s eyes lit up as she looked at the little boy with great interest.
The little boy’s face was pale. "Let go of that chair! What do you want?! I promise, I won’t make things difficult for you! Just leave this place at once!"
This time, it seemed Wen Ying didn’t even need to act. Kong Jian walked right over, grabbed the Taishi Chair, and smashed it onto the ground.
CRACK!
"Stop! Stop! You damn monk! I said stop!"
The boy’s face grew even paler, his body on the verge of collapsing.
But Kong Jian ignored him and stomped on it with his foot.
CRACK!
Finally!
A piece of wood broke off!
The boy collapsed onto the ground, looking as if life was worse than death.
"So you really are a wood spirit. Tsk tsk tsk~"
The boy: "..."
’You’re the wood spirit! Your whole family is made of wood spirits!’
Perhaps the boy’s glare was too sharp, because Little White looked at him and said, "I thought you died some pitiful death. I never expected a spirit like you to become such a menace."
The boy: "I’m not a spirit! I’m not a wood spirit!"
"Then what are you? You can’t possibly be human, right?"
"I am human!" the boy retorted, glaring defiantly at Little White. ’How could he not be human?’
’Even though he was dead, he was still human!’
’He was human when he was alive, and he’s human now!’
’He is human!’
’You’re the one who isn’t human!’
Seeing Kong Jian about to completely destroy the chair, the boy finally panicked. "Don’t! Don’t! You two pretty sisters, please spare me! I really won’t do it again!"
"If you’re not a wood spirit, and that’s not your real body, then what are you afraid of?" Little White asked, confused.
"His lingering obsession is attached to this Taishi Chair. Over many years, it formed his current state. If the Taishi Chair is completely destroyed, he will dissipate into the world within twenty-four hours, never to be reincarnated."
"So he really is human," Little White said, a little disappointed. ’Why couldn’t he be a spirit?’
’Why couldn’t he be something else that took human form!’
’Then we’d be the same kind!’
’Too bad. Finding one of my own kind is so hard. I guess I’m just not worthy.’
Kong Jian stopped mid-action the moment Liger spoke, sensing the explanation was important.
"Everyone, slow down! Let me tell you, the supernatural entity here is terrifying! It took all of us down in one move! And that chair—definitely don’t sit on it! Don’t say I didn’t warn you! That chair is bizarre. Everyone who sat on it died! Not a single one survived. If it weren’t for my good luck, I’d be dead here too! We have to work together on this mission. Remember to follow my lead! Otherwise, we’ll all die here! As far as I know, the entity here is probably an important NPC for this village. He’s the embodiment of resentment. We have to solve his problem to get through this!"
