When they arrived at the quiet street, Tang Yin landed in the middle of the street and waited for Ran Qingfeng to arrive at the place, and Tang Xiao just watched from a tree on the side of the road.
*Screech*
Not long after, Ran Qingfeng arrived at the road, and he braked the car when he saw Tang Yin standing in the middle of the road, blocking his way.
"Why is she here?" Just as he was thinking about that, Tang Yin waved her hand. A black crescent moon shot horizontally toward Ran Qingfeng, which shocked him. He ducked to avoid it, but her attack split his car in half. "What the fuck is that? How could he do such a thing?"
"Are you surprised to see me, cousin?" Tang Yin asked as she walked slowly towards Ran Qingfeng. "Do you still remember what happened seven years ago? We were blood cousins, but you joined your friends and intended to violate me by force. Back then, I thought I would die after I jumped off that building, but I'm still alive now. Therefore, I will exact vengeance upon all of you, starting with you."
Tang Yin's words made Ran Qingfeng quiver in fear, especially after he saw her action splitting his car with her darkness qi just now, and he grabbed the smartphone in his pocket to call for help.
However, Ran Qingfeng's smartphone flew toward Tang Yin, and she crushed it to pieces. He felt even more frightened by her bizarre actions, as he had never witnessed such things before.
Unfortunately, Tang Yin's surprising actions didn't stop there, as she used her darkness transformation. Ran Qingfeng instantly peed in his pants as soon as she turned into a demon, and his body trembled even more violently as he was frightened by her demon form.
Tang Yin jumped onto the hood of the car, and she lifted Ran Qingfeng using her aura before strangling him by the neck, causing his face to turn red from difficulty breathing.
"Ugh... Let me go... I'll die if you strangle me this hard." Ran Qingfeng said it with great difficulty as he tried to remove Tang Yin's hand from his neck, but he was completely shocked by the strength of her grip.
"Why should I let you go?" Tang Yin indifferently asked, and her red eyes glowed sharply. "For seven years, I've been trapped in that dark place alone, and you won't be able to understand the suffering I've been through during those times, but now I've returned as a demon thirsting for revenge."
"You—" Ran Qingfeng didn't continue his words, and his eyes widened in shock as soon as he saw Tang Xiao float down from the tree. 'How? How could he be here? Shouldn't he have died in that ravine?'
"Are you disappointed to see me still alive, cousin?" Tang Xiao asked Ran Linfeng a question after landing behind Tang Yin. "Honestly, I wanted to kill you with my own hands, but my big sister would be disappointed if I did, so I handed you over to her. However, you won't be lonely in the afterlife because your father, Ran Linfeng, will catch up with you soon. As for Zhao Yuxian, we couldn't kill her because she was our late mother's little sister, and we didn't want to disappoint her."
"You—Ugh!" Ran Qingfeng wanted to curse at them, but Tang Yin squeezed his neck harder, causing his face to be completely red from her action. 'Fuck! I didn't expect that I would have such bad luck by meeting these two demons!'
"You can kill him now, Big Sis."
"Goodbye, cousin." Tang Yin thrust her right hand into Ran Qingfeng's chest and pulled his still-beating heart out of his body, causing blood to flow from his mouth and chest, and she crushed it before his eyes.
After he died, Tang Yin threw Ran Qingfeng's corpse onto the street, and Tang Xiao used his fire element to burn it to ashes. As for his car, he threw it into the void so no one would be able to find any trace of him.
"How do you feel?" Tang Xiao asked Tang Yin, who had returned to her human form.
Despite it being her first experience killing someone, and the fact that the victim was her cousin, Tang Yin's expression showed no remorse. "Perhaps you are right that I have become a demon now, and I don't feel anything about his death."
"Qingfeng may be our cousin, but he and his family are villains. They have done many cruel things to our family because of their greed, so we don't have to regret killing them." However, Tang Xiao's cell phone suddenly rang with an incoming message, and it was a message from Su Rou asking him to return to Ouyang House on Yi An's orders. "Sigh, I can't accompany you tonight because Yi An asked me to come back."
"It's okay; you can go back there, or they will be suspicious of you." After Tang Yin disappeared into the ark, Tang Xiao used the Void Dragon Steps to return to Ouyang House.

"Where have you been? Why did you only come back after I sent you a message?" Su Rou, with a suspicious look, asked Tang Xiao.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Tang Xiao responded with a raised eyebrow. "I'm still new to this city, so I walked around a lot of places to look around while memorizing the streets."
"I see." Su Rou nodded in understanding and led Tang Xiao to meet Yi An. "Follow me; Madam Yi asked you to move her best friend to the guest room because she was heavily drunk."
'Yi An's best friend? Who's she?' Tang Xiao wondered as he followed behind Su Rou, but he was surprised when he arrived inside the room, and he recognized Meng Xin. 'Isn't she Yao Wei's second wife? Why is she so drunk?'
"Feng Xiao, take Meng Xin to the guest room." Yi An ordered him as she staggered out of the room.
Seeing that, Su Rou hurriedly supported Yi An and helped her walk to her room, and she showed Tang Xiao the direction of the guest room.
Tang Xiao sighed softly and carried Meng Xing, and he brought her to the guest room that Su Rou had pointed out. 'Sigh! She reeks of alcohol.'
.

Arriving at the guest room, Tang Xiao laid Meng Xin on the bed. He wanted to leave the room, but he heard her mumbling something while sobbing.
Tang Xiao sat on the side of the bed and listened to Meng Xin. "Husband, I hate you so much! I've been with you for five years, but you keep thinking about your ex-wife, who is married to another man now, and you keep refusing to get me pregnant because of your stupid son! He abused me over and over again, but you blamed me instead for his unacceptable behavior."
'Yao Wei is truly stupid, huh? She was much better compared to Xiang Ning, but he wasted a woman as good as her, and he made her feel depressed.' Tang Xiao sighed softly before grabbing Meng Xin's right hand, and he injected his light qi into her body to neutralize the effects of the liquor.
Meng Xin suddenly opened her eyes after feeling something unusual in her body that originated from Tang Xiao's light qi, and she looked at him with blurry vision. "Who are you? Are you Yi An's employee?"
Tang Xiao nodded and spoke directly to Meng Xin. "My name is Feng Xiao, Madam Yi's chauffeur. She asked me to bring you to this guest room because you were too drunk, Madam Yao."
"Don't call me that anymore and call me Meng Xin instead." Meng Xin covered her face with her left hand, and Tang Xiao could see tears dripping from the corners of her eyes. "I've decided to divorce my husband."
"Alright." Tang Xiao then placed Meng Xin's right hand on the bed and stood up. "Since you have calmed down now, I will take my leave, and you can rest in peace."
"Don't leave me." Meng Xin let out a soft exclamation as she grabbed Tang Xiao's hand. "I need someone by my side now, so you can stay here to accompany me."
"Madam Meng, I am a chauffeur, so I am not fit to accompany a respectable lady like you." Tang Xiao said as he pulled his hand back, but Meng Xin held it tighter instead, so he tried to persuade her again. "It's already late now, so it would be better if I took my leave. People will look down at you if they see us together in a room at this hour, and I can call Su Rou to accompany you."
Instead, Meng Xin pulled Tang Xiao to sit down again before sitting on the bed, and she leaned back against the headrest. "I don't want anyone else to accompany me, and I want you to accompany me. Moreover, I felt comfortable when you held my hand earlier, and I felt a strange sensation running through my body because of it."
'Hmm?' Tang Xiao raised his eyebrows, surprised that Meng Xin, who wasn't a cultivator, could feel his light qi. "What did you feel before?"
"I can't find the right words to describe the sensation." Meng Xin extended her right hand to Tang Xiao. "Can you hold my hand again? I want to feel that sensation again because it makes me feel calm and peaceful."
