Return to Place

Feng Wuhen heard this and clenched the ball in his hand, and with his movement a burst of miserable screams rang out from inside the ball, which immediately gave Feng Wuhen a good idea.

Tossing the ball up and down in his hand, he looked at Shen Ziheng, Bing Ling, and the others, and suggested with a smile, "Senior Brother Shen, Bing Ling, and Senior Sister Meng, let me teach you a game!"

As soon as Shen Ziheng and the others heard this, understanding what he was up to, they gathered around one after another.

Feng Wuhen glanced at the messy Peaceful Residence, knowing they could not play here, and Chu Moqing was about to return Qin Leyan to her own body.

Playing here would likely interfere with Chu Moqing, so he led Shen Ziheng and the others outside.

"The rules of this game are very simple. Starting with me, use your palm to hit this ball toward the person next to you. The one who catches it must hit the ball toward their other side, and then keep passing it."

The game's rules were simple and easy to understand; after hearing Feng Wuhen explain it once, everyone else understood.

The four of them stood in a circle, Feng Wuhen holding the ball in one hand and making a hitting motion with the other toward the others, "Get ready, I'm starting."

Feng Wuhen batted the ball away with his palm, and it landed on Shen Ziheng's side. Shen Ziheng used a backhand flick to send the ball flying toward Meng Hongying's side.

Meng Hongying panicked slightly, and in her panic, she executed a bicycle kick, directly booting the ball toward Bing Ling.

Finding her actions very interesting, Bing Ling stamped her feet on the ground, leaped into the air, and delivered an aerial volley.

Seeing that they had both used their feet to kick, Feng Wuhen no longer used his hands to hit it. He pivoted and kicked the purple ball toward Shen Ziheng with his heel.

Shen Ziheng hooked the ball with his toes, spun around, and used the force of his toes to kick the ball to Meng Hongying, and the few of them simply kicked the ball back and forth like that.

Throughout this time, women's wailing and angry cursing kept issuing from the small ball, "Ah, ah, ah, it hurts to death! You bastards, I'm going to kill you! I should have just killed all of you directly a moment ago."

Hearing her words, when Bing Ling kicked the ball toward him, Feng Wuhen did not kick it away; instead, he stepped on the small purple ball and ground it repeatedly against the ground.

The sound of 'Qin Leyan's' miserable shrieks grew even louder. Listening to her agonizing screams and looking at Feng Wuhen's somewhat delighted expression, Meng Hongying felt he was a bit terrifying, deciding she had better not tease him in the future.

While they vented their recent revenge wantonly outside, Chu Moqing was in a difficult spot inside. Looking at the body lying on the ground, he had a massive headache: how was he supposed to send the soul back in?

Drawing out a soul was very simple because he did not need to consider whether it would cause damage to the soul, but sending it back was a completely different matter.

He had to consider how to send the soul back into the body completely without a single error. Such meticulous work did not quite suit his Thunder Spirit Root.

Chu Moqing slapped out a Message Talisman, "Senior Sister Song, I must still trouble you with returning Leyan's soul. My Thunder Spirit Root is afraid to cause damage to Leyan's soul. You usually need to control the heat when refining pills, and your control should be the strongest among us all; it is most appropriate for you to finish this."

Receiving his message, Song Ningyu descended from the clouds and glanced at Feng Wuhen and the others playing football outside. Far from stopping their behavior, she even smiled at them.

Seeing Song Ningyu appear at the entrance of Peaceful Residence, Feng Wuhen and the others turned and bowed to her. They had expected her to voice her disapproval upon seeing their behavior and tell them not to play such boring games and go cultivate instead, but she unexpectedly just smiled gently at them and went inside.

Unable to offer much help, Chu Moqing did not go outside either, choosing instead to stand to one side and watch, guarding her flanks.

Song Ningyu manipulated her own spiritual energy to wrap around Qin Leyan's soul, and then moved the soul toward the body lying on the bed.

The soul merged bit by bit with the body on the bed until not a single gap remained, and only then did Song Ningyu cautiously withdraw her spiritual energy.

After sending the soul back into the body, Song Ningyu was already drenched in sweat. Dismissing her spiritual energy, she took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

She said in a relaxed tone, "Mm, looking for me to return the soul to its place was indeed the right choice. Leyan's soul has completely returned to its place, but her soul has never resided in a physical body before, so even though this is her flesh and blood, she will not be accustomed to it.

She might fall unconscious for a period of time; Senior Brother and Senior Sisters, do not be anxious. Once her soul adapts to the physical body, she will naturally wake up."

Ruan Siyao stepped forward to touch Qin Leyan's breath, and feeling the long breaths brushing against her finger, she wept uncontrollably.

Qin Che and Qin Xiaoran supported her from left and right. Watching Qin Leyan sleeping peacefully, the two of them also felt their eyes grow hot, only they were not as emotionally outward as Ruan Siyao.

Seeing that they had finally reunited as a family, Chu Moqing and Song Ningyu quietly went outside. Since the whole family was reunited, it was inappropriate for the two outsiders to remain there.

As soon as the two came out, they saw Feng Wuhen and Shen Ziheng subjecting the ball to all sorts of cruel tortures—being roasted by fire, frozen by ice, blown everywhere by the wind, and tossed up and down and caught like a game of catch by two vines.

No wonder people always said wild brats were terrifying, and ones caught right between childhood and adulthood were even more terrifying!

Because it was a ball formed from a soul, all the damage inflicted upon the ball was reflected back onto the soul itself. The 'Qin Leyan' trapped as a ball experienced four kinds of torture in the span of a short fifteen minutes.

When Chu Moqing and Song Ningyu took her away and arrived at the Enforcement Hall to rendezvous with Yan Ke and the others, they wanted to interrogate her.

Before Yan Ke could inflict punishment upon her, she had already blurted out everything she had done in one breath.

"At first I only wanted to take revenge on Qin Che—who told him not to like me? At the time I thought about seizing his daughter's body; even if I couldn't be his lover, being his daughter would be fine too!"

Hearing that this was her original idea, everyone cursed in unison, "Damn it, what a psycho."

Acting as if she had heard nothing at all, 'Qin Leyan' continued, "Later, using his daughter's body and watching him and that bitch Ruan Siyao being all lovey-dovey in front of me, being utterly affectionate, I couldn't help wanting to make them suffer.

So when I was little I intentionally threw tantrums, whether it was falling off the bed to cover myself in injuries and make their hearts ache for me.

Or deliberately hurting myself while cultivating, and acting spoiled in front of Qin Xiaoran so he would go to dangerous places to find things I wanted, and then watching him come back battered and bruised, carrying things I had mentioned offhand.

You don't understand this kind of satisfaction; I felt this was the most exhilarating time of my long life."

Listening to her account, Chu Moqing and the others only felt that this person was a psycho among psychos, truly deserving of the Devil Race.
