Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan were in the courtyard, but they automatically ignored them.

All the men and women in the village squeezed into Huang Lang’er’s house. When they saw the dead bodies, they were furious.

The family who had lost their son pounced on the dead body and cried, cursing Huang Xianxian.

Huang Xianxian was pulled out by the crowd. The four-year-old was terrified. With tears in her eyes, he grabbed Huang Xianxian’s clothes and sobbed.

After Huang Xianxian was tied up, Wei Shilai said with a serious expression, “How can you kill people? How can you kill people?”

The women were the most furious. “Drown her, Village Chief. We can’t let such a beast get away.”

Huang Xianxian was expressionless. No matter how angry these people were, she did not speak.

Soon, Huang Lang’er returned. People were escorting Huang Xianxian to the ancestral hall to lock her up. When Huang Lang’er saw this, he immediately rushed over and pushed away the people holding Huang Xianxian. He untied Huang Xianxian and stood beside her.

Huang Xianxian hugged Huang Lang’er and opened her mouth to say something.

Wei Shilai frowned. “Huang Lang’er, your wife killed people. How are you going to justify this?”

“Huang Lang’er, think about how we raised you up. Don’t be ungrateful!”

The seniors in the village shouted at him.

However, Huang Lang’er did not listen. He held Huang Xianxian’s hand and said, “Xianxian only kills those who deserve to be killed. Uncles, Aunties, ask yourself. Why did these men sneak into my house late at night?”

Wei Shilai was stunned. Before he could speak, the woman who had lost her son stepped forward and grabbed Huang Lang’er with all her might. “You heartless ingrate, are you going to betray us who raised you up, for this demon?”

“They were the ones who wanted to molest my wife. They deserve to die.”

Huang Lang’er held Huang Xianxian firmly.

The three women who had lost their sons pounced on Huang Xianxian and kicked and punched her.

“Kill this demon. Today, our sons were killed by her. Tomorrow, we will be killed by her.”

“Huang Lang’er is an ungrateful thing. This is how he repays us who gave him food and shelter.”

Huang Xianxian couldn’t help but get angry at those accusations.

She pushed Huang Lang’er away and let out a roar. She returned to her original appearance and said coldly, “I already warned them, but they insisted on seeking death. Since you can’t discipline your sons, I’ll make them reincarnate and learn to be a human again.”

This was the first time people saw Huang Xianxian in her real appearance, and they were shocked.

Wherever Huang Xianxian looked, people subconsciously took a step back in fright.

Huang Xianxian’s eyes were cold as she said, “We’ll live our lives as a family and mind our own business. If anyone has ill intentions, I’ll kill them.”

Everyone was stunned. Huang Xianxian had already pulled Huang Lang’er and her son back into the room.

After seeing Huang Xianxian’s real appearance, people realized the difference between humans and demons.

Wei Shilai sighed heavily. Everyone looked at him with worry on their faces, asking. “Village Chief, what should we do now?”

Wei Shilai said, “There’s no other way. We made a mistake the last time we allowed them to stay. Now, we’ll have to just live with it.”

“She killed three people. Are we just going to let her off?”

Those who had lost their son couldn’t hold back the anger.

Wei Shilai said, “We don’t know the whole story. Just go back and make sure the men in your family behave well.”

Since the village chief said so, they could only go back indignantly.

In such a fashion, this matter ended.

Chu Yan went to catch fish, and Liu Sanniang followed suit. They caught some fish and were about to go back when Liu Sanniang saw a sneaky figure carrying a small wooden bucket and pouring something into Huang Lang’er’s courtyard. She walked closer and saw that it was Officer Zhang.

Liu Sanniang was still not used to seeing Officer Zhang in a female body. The bucket he was holding smelled horrible…

After Officer Zhang finished pouring the content, he turned around and was shocked to see Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan.

He paused for a moment before realizing that it was Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan. Officer Zhang looked at Liu Sanniang’s stomach and said in disdain, “Madam Chu, it’s been a few years. Why isn’t your stomach getting any bigger?”

After saying that, Officer Zhang looked at Chu Yan and winked at him. “Doctor Chu, you’re not young anymore. You must hurry up and have a child before you can.”

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Aren’t you afraid of Huang Xianxian?”

Officer Zhang gritted his teeth and quickly ran away.

Liu Sanniang looked at the outer wall that was stained with filth and frowned.

Although Huang Xianxian and Huang Lang’er did not leave, the villagers had already started to hate them.

Chu Yan held Liu Sanniang’s hand. “Let’s go. I’ll make you fried fish today.”

After dinner, Chu Yan rubbed Liu Sanniang’s head. “Sleep early. The illusion is about to end.”

It was already the year of the fire.

After the fire, Huanghu village would be gone and the illusion would naturally end.

Liu Sanniang nodded.

When she returned to her room, she couldn’t sleep, no matter what. She tossed and turned many times before finally falling asleep in a daze.

In a daze, Liu Sanniang felt very hot.

She seemed to be in the mountains. It was scorching hot. The trees in the mountains dried up, and many animals that could not withstand the heat, died as well.

The crops in the fields died and gradually turned into withered grass. Many villagers knelt on the ground and prayed for the heavens to rain and end this drought.

Everyone’s anger was directed at Huang Xianxian. They thought that it was Huang Xianxian who brought this drought upon the village. As a way to vent their anger, more and more people started pouring filth into Huang Lang’er’s courtyard.

In the depth of the mountain, a figure was using her power to protect this area. She was the mountain god. She wanted to protect the living beings in the mountains, including those in Huanghu Village. Even if they were hurting her, she still wanted to protect them.

The drought did not ease. Instead, it became worse.

When Liu Sanniang woke up, she felt hot and her throat seemed to be smoking. When she got up, there was a knock on the door. Chu Yan’s voice was gentle as he said, “Sanniang, can I come in?”

Liu Sanniang replied. “Come in.”

Chu Yan pushed open the door and poured water from the teapot for Liu Sanniang. “Drink some water first.”
