"Did you see anything just now?" Yincha stared at the spot where Feng Qishi and the others had disappeared.
"I saw it. Why are you asking?" Hei Feng sighed.
"He..." Yincha struggled to believe the scene of the wolf demon leaping onto Feng Qishi's back. A corner of his mouth twitched. "The wolf demon actually followed them."
Hei Feng knew the wolf demon well. Recalling his past wicked behavior and contrasting it with his current actions to help Mu Anxiao and the others, Hei Feng could only describe his feelings as gratified.
As for the wolf demon's recent behavior, he didn't want to discuss it much, knowing that Feng Qishi must be very angry. Feng Qishi would surely give the wolf demon a piece of his mind.
Thus, he looked down at the old woman lying on the ground, deliberately shifting the topic from what Yincha wanted to discuss. "Do you know where she lives?" he asked, looking up at Yincha.
Yincha, holding the black rope, thought for a moment, then turned to look at Zhang Mai, who was staring at him. "Um... do you know where she lives?" he asked, pointing to the old woman.
Zhang Mai followed Yincha's gaze, looked down at the old woman, and nodded reluctantly.
"Tell him," Yincha said, not paying attention to Zhang Mai's expression, and pointed at Hei Feng.
Hei Feng looked at Zhang Mai. "Do you really know?"
"I was at her house, watching my dog," Zhang Mai said, still harboring resentment towards the old woman, which was evident on her face.
Hei Feng noticed it. "..." But he chose not to speak.
Seeing Hei Feng's gaze, Zhang Mai felt a pang of guilt. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Her eyes flickered.
Hei Feng just smiled and remained silent.
Yincha found Hei Feng's behavior strange and asked, "Exactly, why are you looking at her?"
"..." Hei Feng glanced at Yincha, then back at Zhang Mai. "Do you still hate her?"
"..." Zhang Mai lowered her head.
"Hate, or not hate?"
"..." Zhang Mai didn't want to answer.
"Hate, or not hate?" Hei Feng repeated.
Yincha frowned. "..." He looked at Zhang Mai.
The dog's soul let out a bark.
Zhang Mai was startled by the dog's bark and opened her mouth slightly. Finally, with a surge of resolve, she uttered two words: "Still hate."
"Carrying hatred like this will not be beneficial for you," Hei Feng said calmly.
Yincha had thought Zhang Mai had taken his words to heart, but unexpectedly... she still harbored hatred towards the old woman.
Therefore, his eyes darkened. "Why do you still hate her..."
"How could I not hate her for something like this?"
The moment Yincha had believed Zhang Mai, she had decided in her heart that since she had already uttered the curse, she would naturally let go of her hatred for the old woman.
However, while Yincha and the others were discussing other matters, she looked down at the old woman again and felt indignant. Especially when she thought about her own and the dogs' lives, the fact that the old woman was still alive, and that the old woman could atone for her sins by doing good deeds, she felt infuriated. It felt unfair!
But, to avoid disappointing Yincha, she hadn't wanted to show that hatred. Yet, after hearing Hei Feng's words, she felt it was okay to just say it!
"Then tell me, what would it take for you not to hate her?" Yincha asked, looking at the furious Zhang Mai with a helpless expression.
Zhang Mai: "I want her to be like us."
"What?" Yincha found Zhang Mai's request excessive.
"I want fairness."
"Fairness? Then tell me..."
"There is no absolute fairness or absolute unfairness in this world. I can only say that carrying hatred will do you no good. To put it another way, do you truly want to see her die?" Hei Feng interrupted.
Yincha was speechless and shifted his gaze to Hei Feng's face.
"I... I don't know."
"Not knowing means you don't want to, right? Anyway, I'm asking you because I see resentment on your face. It doesn't matter if you continue to carry hatred, but the reason I want you to resolve this is that if you continue to hate her," Hei Feng said, "you will never be separated from her."
"What do you mean?" Zhang Mai suddenly became nervous.
"It means that when will endless retaliation end? She hated your dog for killing her husband, and you hate her for killing you and your dogs. When your hatred combines, you two will have an inseparable connection. If you were to reincarnate, you might become her relative in the next life, and not only that, you would be bullied by her. Is this the outcome you want?" Hei Feng was talking nonsense.
"Really?" Zhang Mai was frightened.
"It would be meaningless for me to lie to you with this."
"..." Zhang Mai fell silent and began to think.
In reality, Zhang Mai and the old woman hating each other would have no impact on either of them.
On the contrary, it would have a significant impact on Yincha. This was because every ten years, the underworld would tally the number of lonely souls and vengeful spirits, and whoever had more under their charge would be punished.
Considering Yincha's competence and Zhang Mai's special soul identity, Hei Feng thought that if Zhang Mai continued to harbor hatred, Yincha would no longer be able to be Yincha.
Of course, only Hei Feng knew about this. Yincha and Mu Anxiao only knew that it would affect one party, but they didn't know which one. Thus, they could only tell Zhang Mai not to hate the old woman.
Yincha watched Zhang Mai's thoughtful expression and shifted his gaze to Hei Feng's face. "..."
Hei Feng asked, "Why are you looking at me?" He then looked down at the still sleeping old woman.
"..." Yincha remained silent.
Hei Feng sighed and looked at Zhang Mai. "What have you decided?"
"Fine, I don't hate her anymore." Zhang Mai didn't want any further connection with the old woman.
Hei Feng: "Really?"
"Yes, really."
"Alright then," Hei Feng smiled slightly. "Tell me, where does she live?" He pointed to the old woman.
Zhang Mai: "I'll take you."
Hei Feng hesitated for a moment, looked at the old woman's physique, and then at Yincha's hand holding the black rope. He said, "You'd better give me a location, a house number is fine too."
"Okay then."
Yincha asked doubtfully, "What are you going to do?"
"Turn her back directly. What else?" Hei Feng's tone towards Yincha was impolite.
After spending several hours together, Yincha had clearly become accustomed to Hei Feng's attitude towards him. He said, "Leading the way would be more convenient, wouldn't it?"
"You carry her," Hei Feng said directly.
Upon hearing this, Yincha was speechless for a few seconds. He glanced at the old woman's physique, just like Hei Feng, and changed his words. "Since it's a problem that can be solved with magic, then we shouldn't use brute force. Your method is very good." He gave a thumbs-up.
"I agree," Hei Feng said unpretentiously and looked at Zhang Mai. "Go ahead."
"Black Ghost Alley, number five."
"Black Ghost?" Yincha was stunned.
