“Get out!”

“Get out! Don’t bring disaster to our village!”

“Today is the once-in-sixteen-years offering to the Mountain God. If you bring calamity upon us, you will be the village’s greatest sinner!”

Old Madam Chen stood among the crowd, her sharp eyes flickering with calculation.

“Sister, you have remained unmarried your entire life, with no one to send you off in your final days. Instead, you took in this wild girl and even dared to live independently. But have you ever thought about the consequences? A-Man is a curse that will doom the entire village, our family included!”

“Everyone who associates with her meets a bad end. Even her mother was doomed by her presence!”

“You are old now, already with one foot in the grave. In the end, won’t you still have to rely on your own kin? Think about it—your nephew, your grandnephew. Our Lin family shares the same blood, we are bound by flesh and bone.”

A thin, rat-faced man behind her added, “Aunt, don’t worry. I will be the one to break the funeral pot for you when the time comes.”

“Even though you refuse to hand over your precious recipes, I still treat you as family.”

“If you drive A-Man out, remove her from the family registry and exile her from the village, our family will take care of you in your old age.”

“If you refuse… I’m afraid the Village Chief will remove you from the Lin family records and banish you as well.” The nephew spoke with feigned concern, his words making the old lady’s face darken with rage.

The Village Chief raised a hand, silencing the crowd as all eyes turned to him.

He knew well that this shameless family was simply eyeing Old Madam Lin’s property.

But he didn’t care.

“Old Madam Lin, you were born and raised in this village. I won’t force you. But if you wish to remain here, you must remove A-Man from the family records and exile her.”

“Otherwise, you will leave alongside her.”

“The offering to the Mountain God is of utmost importance. We cannot allow you to disrupt the ritual!”

“Don’t think I don’t know. A-Man rushed back last night—she intends to enter the mountain again, doesn’t she?”

A-Man’s face was pale, her lips pressed together, eyes filled with stubborn defiance.

Her mother’s spirit remained within the mountain. Over the years, she had entered the forest countless times in search of the Mountain God, but she had never found him.

Last night, she had returned specifically to enter the mountain once more.

To seek justice for her mother!

“Look at her! This wretched girl refuses to give up! If she wants to die, let her, but why must she drag us all down with her?”

“Her mother was nothing more than a filthy woman! Pregnant out of wedlock, claiming the child belonged to the Mountain God!”

“We already struggle to survive in the Demon Realm, and if we offend the Mountain God, we will have no future!”

“Just like that lowly wench of a mother! She dared to taint the Mountain God with her lies!” Old Madam Chen shouted, hands on her hips, her words venomous and vile.

A-Man’s eyes burned red with fury.

“You will not slander my mother! She was pure and righteous!” With that, she lunged at Old Madam Chen, tackling her to the ground.

Before anyone could react, A-Man had already straddled the old woman and slapped her across the face, one strike after another.

“I warned you—speak ill of my mother again, and I will tear your mouth apart!”

“You spread lies about her day and night. She may be gone, but I still live!” She knew very well that it was Old Madam Chen who had spread the rumors in the village, claiming her mother had cavorted with strangers and birthed a bastard child.

Slap! Slap! Slap! A-Man’s furious strikes left Old Madam Chen’s face swollen like a steamed bun.

The villagers could only watch, stunned, as the old woman took the beating without resistance.

“You little wretch! What are you all waiting for? Save me!” Old Madam Chen shrieked at her son.

The rat-faced man’s expression darkened. “You dare strike my mother, you little whore!”

He rolled up his sleeves and lunged, grabbing A-Man by the hair.

Lu Chao Chao was about to use her spiritual energy to intervene, but before she could act…

The small and slender A-Man suddenly lifted the man off the ground and slammed him down onto the village’s large water tank.

Crack!

“Ahh!!” The water tank shattered on impact, sending shards of porcelain flying. The man howled in agony, his body soaked and cut by the jagged pieces.

The villagers stood frozen, unable to believe what they had just witnessed.
