Hu Yu waved her hand. “I’m not leaving.”

Liu Yuanyuan responded coldly. “Nor am I.”

Master Tang looked at Liu Sanniang and said calmly, “Miss Liu, let your friends leave. They have never seen such a face before. I’m afraid they’ll be frightened.”

Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan looked like two beautiful girls. Perhaps they had never seen something this hideous.

Liu Sanniang replied serenely. “No need, they’re not afraid.”

Madam Tang looked at Master Tang with worry.

Even though they were married for many decades, she had not seen Master Tang’s face for a long time. Master Tang did not want anyone to see his face, so he wore a mask all year round.

When Master Tang was young, this appearance had hurt him a lot.

Madam Tang felt that in this world, the thing that hurt the most was not swords, but gossip and strange gazes.

Master Tang said with difficulty, “Madam, please retreat outside the hall.”

Madam Tang pursed her lips and held back her tears. “If Master wants me to leave, then I’ll leave.”

Master Tang could take off his mask in front of others, but he did not want the person he loved the most to see him like this.

Madam Tang understood. Her heart ached for Master Tang. She was very obedient. If he didn’t want her to look, she wouldn’t.

Madam Tang stood up and left.

Master Tang raised his hand and slowly took off his mask.

It was an indescribable face.

Tang Huaixiao’s eyes were cold. Her hand was already on the dagger at her waist. As long as Liu Sanniang said something unpleasant, she would go up and stab her to death.

Tang Huaixiao and Master Tang both had two faces, but his face had already begun to droop.

If outsiders saw his face, they would probably faint due to fear.

Liu Sanniang looked at Master Tang’s face and did not show any disgust or fear. She looked at Master Tang as if he was an ordinary person.

Master Tang’s uneasiness was soothed when he looked into Liu Sanniang’s eyes.

After a while, Liu Sanniang said, “Master Tang, when are you going to let Young Master Tang worship the statue with you?”

Master Tang did not know why Liu Sanniang asked this, but he replied. “When Huaijin gets married, we’ll be worshiping the statue together. I was like this back. After my marriage, 1 started worshiping the Buddha statue devoutly.”

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Are you worshiping the statue to wash away your sins?”

Master Tang pondered for a moment and nodded. “Yes, hundreds of years ago, our Tang family made a mistake. That’s why such a curse was cast on us. Generation after generation, only by protecting Jiufang City can we wash away the sins. When the sins are washed away, our Tang family will have normal descendants.”

Every generation was ugly and monstrous. It was a punishment meted out to the Tang family. Each member of the Tang family was waiting for the day the curse disappeared.

Liu Sanniang looked at Master Tang. “The karma of the previous generation will not be passed down to the next generation.”

Master Tang didn’t understand. “Miss Liu, what do you mean?”

If karma of the previous generation would not pass down to the next, why would the Tang family end up like this?

Master Tang stared at Liu Sanniang’s face, looking terrifying.

Tang Huaixiao and Tang Huaijin could not help but fall into deep thought, thinking about what Liu Sanniang meant.

She looked at Master Tang and said in a calm and emotionless tone, “Your children and descendants will be incomplete not because of the sins of your ancestors, but because of your sins.”

Master Tang refused to believe her words. “How is that possible? Our Tang family has protected Jiufang City for generations. Our descendants will never leave this place. We used all kinds of methods to defend the city. We…”

Master Tang couldn’t bring himself to continue. What sins had he ever committed?

Liu Sanniang looked at Master Tang. “That’s what 1 read from your face. 1 want to see the Buddha statue you worship.”

Master Tang hesitated. “I… I can’t let you do that. Only the Tang family can see this Buddha. This is a Buddha that our ancestors painstakingly invited to protect our descendants. If not for the Buddha, our Tang family would be in a worse state than now.”

Master Tang had mixed feelings. He could not help but look at Liu Sanniang. He did not know what he wanted to see, but he subconsciously hoped that Liu Sanniang would show a strange expression. Even if it was just a little, Master Tang could convince himself not to believe Liu Sanniang.

However, he was disappointed. Liu Sanniang looked at him sincerely. She only said what she knew. She did not lie or boast about anything.

Master Tang asked with hesitation. “Miss Liu, is there something wrong with the Buddha?”

Liu Sanniang looked at Master Tang. “The sins of your Tang family all come from it. Your offering is the life force of the statue, but what it repays you with is sin.”

Master Tang almost lost his ability to think. He couldn’t believe it, nor could he allow himself to believe it.

No one in the Tang family could accept such reality. Every word Liu Sanniang said was not filled with mockery and sadness. Instead, it was filled with sincerity.

Every generation of the Tang family was living to wash away their sins and do good.

Therefore, when they met Shi Jiu, they saved him without hesitation because saving a life was better than building a seven-story pagoda.

Tang Huaixiao pulled out the dagger angrily. “Don’t try to sow discord between us. I think you have just been sent to kill Shi Jiu. You can’t use your power in my territory, so you want to sow discord and make our family collapse so that you can do whatever you want, right?”

Tang Huaixiao bit her lip and looked at Liu Sanniang angrily. Before she could do anything, she felt a sudden pain in her wrist and the dagger fell to the ground..
