After she recognized the array master, it was no longer that difficult to undo the array.

However, she had to investigate what this person wanted to do.

The little person looked at the child and then at Shen Chun, who was focused on breaking the array.

Now that she was no longer a ghost, she could probably talk to the child, right? She hesitated for a moment before floating towards the child.

She landed on Hu Jing’s forehead and turned into a wisp of white smoke that entered her dream.

In her dream, Hu Jing saw her mother and ran into her arms happily. “Mom!”

For so long, she could see the child and accompany her, but couldn’t have any physical contact. When she felt the child’s soft body again after so many years, she couldn’t help but cry.

“Mom, your tears…” Hu Jing wasn’t used to the fact that her tears weren’t blood tears anymore.

She wiped away the tears on her mother’s face gently and comforted her like before, “Mom, I’ve already grown up, so don’t worry about me. As long as you’re by my side, 1 won’t be afraid of anything!”

She clenched her fists in a comical manner to make her mother happy.

The woman’s expression suddenly turned serious.

“Baby, I won’t accompany you anymore in the future. Promise me that you’ll eat well on your own.”

“Mom, where are you going? Don’t go.” Hu Jing’s clear eyes were filled with confusion and her heart was racing.

Didn’t her mom say that she would always be by her side in the future?

“I’m going to a good place. 1 will always look after you and protect you from there, okay?” The woman tried her best to hold back her tears and squeezed out a gentle smile.

She squatted down and buried her face in the child’s small shoulder for a long time. “You have to eat well and take good care of yourself. When you miss Mommy, look at the stars. Mommy will be there.”

When Hu Jing raised her head in her dream, she saw that the sky was filled with stars and calmed down.

Hu Jing nodded at her mother obediently. “Okay, 1 will work hard.” However, she then asked with a frown, “Will we still see each other in my dreams?”

The woman pressed her forehead against Hu Jing’s and said with a smile, “Of course.”

She gave Hu Jing one last hug, then her forehead let out a puff of smoke and her soul became nearly transparent. Her human form could no longer be seen.

At this moment, Shen Chun had already broken through most of the array. She stuck the eight yellow talismans in the air and pinched an empty talisman before placing them on her forehead. “The evil spirits are clear and unchanging. Disperse!”

Blue lightning instantly descended from the sky and struck the rune array that was emitting a faint red light. The wind blew Shen Chun’s hair, which fluttered like seaweed.

Thunder rumbled, and the spell formation dispersed before turning into red-eyed insects that fled into the forest. Lan Shan felt a little nauseous when he saw this. This was much more disgusting than the microorganisms in the water.

The little person dispersed like a dandelion along with the wind and waves. Her talisman was unlocked, and her soul was free, so the wind blew her away.

Shen Chun heard her thank her softly, “Thank you, fortune teller. My wish has been fulfilled but 1 have nothing to repay you with. 1’11 definitely do anything for you in my next life…”

Shen Chun replied, “You’re welcome. 1 wish you happiness in your next life.”

When Shen Chun thought about how she could end work for today, she felt indescribably relaxed. Just as she was about to take out her phone and call Fu Shi, a cold wind blew around her, blowing the fallen leaves and making her feel a chill down her spine.

Almost instantly, the talisman pierced into her body like a raindrop.

The talisman paper that was as thin as a cicada’s wing felt like a metal nail at this moment. Amidst her confusion, Shen Chun took out her talisman calmly and protected herself with a golden barrier.

However, the other party still had yet to stop. The white paper formed an airtight thick wall that surrounded her and made her unable to move.

This was Langcang Mountain’s technique, but it was still a forbidden technique.

If an ordinary Daoist priest encountered this, they would probably die in a few minutes. Even Shen Chun might die if she didn’t put in substantial effort.

Shen Chun felt that this array looked a little familiar. When she recognized this curse, she realized that the other party was testing her.

Shen Chun couldn’t help but sneer.

“Is this how you treat your peers?”
