It was Zhang Yuan's wife and his four-year-old son.
A long time ago, after Zhang Yuan decided to retire, he came to a small mountain village to settle down.
No one here knew him and no one called him "Celestial Master Zhang".
He did not have to predict the fortunes and misfortunes of others, nor was he forced to do things that went against the laws of heaven.
One day, while he was collecting firewood in the mountains, Zhang Yuan rescued a village girl who was haunted by a grave guard ghost. This was the first time he used his abilities here and the girl also kept his secret very well.
Later, that girl became his wife. Even when people found him and revealed that he was a powerful Taoist priest, the girl's dedication to him never changed and still treated him as an ordinary person. ƒ𝑟𝚎e𝔀𝗲𝒃𝑛o𝘷𝗲𝒍 - 🅽🅽novel
Then, he was surrounded by swords and knives. The girl that he sent away was caught by the villains and violently thrown to the ground. Next to her was his child, a four-year-old clever little boy.
Initially, Zhang Yuan was debating whether he should teach his son all of his abilities. He hoped that his son could follow in his master's footsteps, but at the same time, he wanted his son to be an ordinary man. He wanted his son to marry, have children, and live an ordinary life.
However, Zhang Yuan saw that because the crying little boy was too noisy, a villain raised his big knife and slashed at the four-year-old child.
In an instant, the young face was stained with dust, and the round object rolled to his feet.
The faces of those who were close to the little boy were splashed with hot, red blood.
His wife went crazy and ran to the executioner. She wanted to avenge her son.
Following more blood, more cursing, and more chaos, he also went crazy.
He remembered that his master once taught him a very vicious spell, which would use himself as a sacrifice to kill everyone present.
To cast the spell, he had to use a yellow talisman that his master drew, which he hid in a hidden compartment on the mirror.
He ran desperately to the mirror in his cottage. At that time, his heart was filled with the desire for revenge. He wanted these murderous demons to pay with their lives.
However, in the end, his body and his blood only spilled onto this simple bronze mirror.
When he returned to reality, it was still the same haunted house filled with mirrors.
Yun Qin looked at Zhang Yuan's tottering body and did not make a sound.
After that, Zhang Yuan flipped over the mirror as if he had gone mad. His eyes were blood-red and his lips were trembling.
He pulled out a yellow talisman with dark brown patterns from the hidden compartment. Zhang Yuan's master drew the talisman, stroke by stroke, using the blood in his heart and gave it to him solemnly.
Zhang Yuan remembered that his master warned him that this talisman should not be used unless it was absolutely necessary.
After all, what kind of hatred must he experience to be willing to give up his life?
"How could I forget her... how could I..." Zhang Yuan cried bitterly.
Yun Qin felt very sad. She said softly, "After becoming an evil spirit, you would only remember certain things. It's not your fault."
"She promised me that she would accompany me to find my master."
"It's that group's fault! It's that group's fault!"
"They killed my son, my wife, and destroyed me!!"
The old man, who was always amiable, suddenly became violent. Yun Qin felt that the entire building was about to collapse.
It seemed that after so long, this piece of land was bounded to Zhang Yuan, becoming an area that even the divine axiom could not interfere with.
Once a powerful evil spirit was determined to destroy, everything around it would bear a huge price.
"I want to kill them! I want to exterminate their entire race!"
Zhang Yuan roared and his ghostly body suddenly expanded by several times. Then, his gaze suddenly locked onto a specific place, and he was trying to break through the shackles and rush outside.
Yun Qin fell onto the shaking floor, but she did not move. Her gaze was fixed on the furious and roaring Zhang Yuan.
The greedy ghost was so scared that it hid in her body. It was already afraid of this powerful evil spirit but once it saw Zhang Yuan's kind expression, it was relieved a bit. Now it was scared out of its mind again.
As for the zombie worm family, they had long fled to god knows where.
Only the hidden ghost, who was loyal to Zhang Yuan, still stayed by his side. It anxiously bumped its head against Zhang Yuan, trying to wake him up.
But it was useless.. Once Zhang Yuan remembered his hatred, he became a real evil ghost.
