When Zhao Yi planned to seek "Gu" for answers, five miles outside the Yao Family Town, the protagonist stood facing Yao Su in a dense forest.

Yao Su was still wearing the light and transparent black gauze dress.

The little dress couldn't cover the vital parts at all, exposing large areas of snow-white, delicate skin, looking extremely enticing.

The protagonist didn't dare to look directly.

Yao Su had no qualms, as if she had no sense of shame, and didn't care about exposing herself.

Her gaze was sinister, her expression venomous, staring at the protagonist fiercely, wishing she could eat his flesh and drink his blood.

The protagonist painfully closed his eyes.

Father died, mother went mad.

Uncle tricked him, cousin abused him.

Life is worthless!

Yao Su didn't care about all that.

She glared at the protagonist, giving him a cold stare, her tone icy: "Little beast, return the altar to me, or I'll take your life!"

"Amitabha."

The protagonist clasped his hands together, chanting a Buddhist name.

His complexion was fair, his face gentle, eyebrows and eyes like water.

Although his body was covered in scars, and his moon-white monk robes were stained with blood, he did not appear sloppy, rather, it accentuated his transcendental demeanor even more.

The protagonist sighed and said helplessly: "Benefactor, I've already explained, the altar was stolen by Taotie and it is not with me."

Yao Su completely ignored the protagonist's explanation.

She said viciously, "At that time on the island, if it hadn't been for your interference, the sacrifice ritual would have been completed, and the altar would not have been lost."

"Amitabha."

The protagonist felt helpless inside.

How could he not make this woman understand?

Back on the island, if it weren't for his timely rescue, Zhao Yi would have long dismembered Yao Su.

The protagonist found it strange.

Yao Su wouldn't really regard herself as the Princess Consort, would she?

Not to mention that Yao Su and Prince Zhi were without status, even if Prince Zhi acknowledged her identity, he died because of her, and Yao Su wouldn't have a good life anyway.

Zhao Yi slaughtered hundreds of thousands on the island, what difference would one of her make?

Finding it futile to reason with Yao Su, the protagonist could only say: "The altar is a wicked object, it deceives people's minds. If kept close, it will bring endless troubles."

"Endless troubles? What troubles could there be?" Yao Su cursed hysterically.

"If it were not for that altar, I would have died more than ten years ago."

"Everything I have today is thanks to the altar!"

"I only regret not completing the sacrifice ritual, failing at the last minute, which allowed the Zhao family's villains to take advantage!"

"Otherwise, I would have long eradicated the Zhao family!"

Upon saying this, Yao Su glared fiercely at the protagonist: "Enough of your nonsense! Find that altar for me, or even as a ghost I won't let you go."

Upon hearing this, the protagonist felt an overwhelming bitterness.

He wanted to continue to explain, but Yao Su refused to listen to him.

"Amitabha."

The protagonist said helplessly: "Benefactor, the sea of suffering is boundless, turning back is..."

Slap!

Yao Su slapped the protagonist hard on the face.

On his fair, handsome face appeared a distinctly textured handprint.

Yao Su was also at Tier Nine Saint King Realm.

Although the protagonist's realm had increased, he didn't expect Yao Su to strike suddenly.

The slap landed solidly.

Not satisfied after hitting him, Yao Su pointed at the protagonist and cursed:

"Turn back, turn your mother back!"

"When I suffered back then, where was the Buddha, where was the madman, and where were you, the little beast?"

"It took me years to finally rise above suffering, the madman wants my forgiveness, you, the little beast, ask me to turn back, I'll turn your ancestors!"

"I only regret not being able to kill that madman, not being able to dice him into pieces!"

After cursing, Yao Su pointed at the protagonist, threatening: "You little beast, I give you one incense stick's time to hand over the altar, or I'll die in front of you! I heard you've been practicing Buddhism since childhood? You force your mother to death, I'd like to see how you continue practicing Buddhism!"

After the curse, Yao Su changed her expression again.

She let tears fall from her eyes, looking at the protagonist with a gaze full of sorrow: "I know I have no nurturing grace towards you, no right to ask anything of you. But considering I gave birth to you and almost suffered the poisonous punishment of snake bites because of you, I beg you to return the altar to me."

The protagonist's face turned pale, his body trembling, his gaze at Yao Su full of pain.

At this moment, he suddenly realized.

All woes in the world are not woes.

The hardest is the tears of kin.

"Fine!"

The protagonist took a deep breath, clasped his hands, and heavily recited a Buddhist name.

"Amitabha!"

He turned around, heading towards the Yao Family Town.

"Benefactor, wait a moment, I will retrieve that altar for you even if it costs me my life!"

Yao Su's eyes suddenly brightened.

Just as she was about to speak, the weather suddenly changed.

He had just stepped forward, but his feet couldn't move anymore.

He felt as if he had been targeted by something terrifying, and a shiver from his soul swept through his body instantly.

"What's happening?"

Although the protagonist's complexion was ugly, since he was already at Tier Nine Saint King Realm, he was shocked but not chaotic.

He quickly checked around, the surroundings were silent, the din of insects and birds in the dense forest had all disappeared.

"No one?" The protagonist frowned tightly.

Suddenly, he felt something, lifting his head to look at the sky.

It was noon.

The sun had been bright, the sky clear.

In an instant.

Dark clouds roiled, black clouds pressed against the city, thunder howled, all fell silent!

"Why the sudden change in weather?"

Looking at the looming Thunder Dragon overhead, the protagonist's sense of alarm intensified, and his unease grew.
