The Wu Wei family, established by Wu Wei, is quite renowned in the Yellow Springs Realm.

"Lord Mo Lin, Miss Su Yunling from the South District is here."

A Yellow Springs Ghost appeared and reported to Mo Lin.

"Who is Su Yunling?"

"A contender for the ruler of the Yellow Springs Realm, she manages the South District."

Wu Wei reported to Mo Lin: "This girl is formidable, almost as if she has the ability to foresee the future. Every time I lead the ghosts to attack the South District, she evades us.

Even a few times, we fell into ambushes."

"I understand, let her come over," Mo Lin instructed.

A woman dressed in a white Tang suit slowly appeared.

Her white Tang suit flowed onto the ground, and her eyes were covered with a white cloth strip.

She walked gracefully, like a fairy.

She did not bring any ghosts, coming alone.

"May I ask, are you Lord Mo Lin?" The woman stood in front of Mo Lin and respectfully inquired.

Though she could not see, she was able to pinpoint Mo Lin's position precisely and stood before him.

"Yes, I am." Mo Lin nodded.

"Lord Mo Lin, now is a perfect opportunity. Capture this woman, and the South District will be ours," Wu Wei slowly said.

Before Mo Lin could speak,

Wu Ling immediately appeared behind the woman in white, blocking her retreat.

Coming alone clearly meant she could not be allowed to leave.

Is this not courting death?

The other ghosts also took action, surrounding the woman in white and cutting off her escape.

"Don't be agitated, I have come to surrender." The woman raised her hands high, indicating her intentions.

"Lord Mo Lin, please spare me, and I'll give up the fight for the ruler of the Yellow Springs Realm, the South District will be yours."

The woman in white was decisive.

This sudden statement left all the ghosts present a bit surprised.

Isn't this too simple?

"My name is Su Yunling. I came to the Yellow Springs Realm to escape the pursuit of enemies. I'm not here to contest the ruler position against you."

"Why would you turn to me?" Mo Lin was puzzled. Why did Su Yunling come to him just as he arrived in the East District?

Was it a coincidence, or was there an ulterior motive?

"You are the one most likely to become the ruler of the Yellow Springs Realm. If I oppose you, there's a ninety percent chance I'll die. Therefore, I've chosen to rely on you."

Before Mo Lin could say anything, Su Yunling took out her Yellow Springs Book.

"The ability of my Yellow Springs Book is divination. I foresaw that you would come here today, so I came to ally with you."

With that, Mo Lin understood.

"Can I learn this divination ability?" Mo Lin curiously asked.

"Lord Mo Lin, it's best you don't learn it. Gaining insight into the heavens requires a price."

Su Yunling pointed to her eyes and said to Mo Lin, "For example, my blinded eyes are the price."

Hearing this from Su Yunling, Mo Lin immediately abandoned the idea.

"Alright, I accept your surrender," Mo Lin straightforwardly accepted Su Yunling's allegiance.

"Thud!"

Su Yunling immediately knelt on the ground and said to Mo Lin, "Lord Mo Lin, I wish to ask you to avenge me."

This gesture left Mo Lin deeply surprised.

"I will give you the South District, and I can also give you the Yellow Springs Book, just please avenge me."

Mo Lin was somewhat unexpected, but not entirely surprised.

After all, Su Yunling's declaration of surrender certainly had a purpose.

Otherwise, why would she come to ally with Mo Lin unprovoked?

She could also have chosen someone else, such as that yellow-haired woman from the West District.

Or that man from the East District.

"My younger brother was turned into a corpse person, my younger sister was violated and brutally killed. Please avenge me."

Su Yunling again said to Mo Lin.

"Who killed them?"

"It was my stepmother's doing." Su Yunling's lips curled into a cold smile.

It's not that she hadn't thought of avenging herself, but she's now visually impaired.

With only the ability for divination, to avenge herself is utterly impossible.

Hence, she thought of finding someone to exact her revenge.

"What can you offer me?"

Mo Lin couldn't just go help Su Yunling avenge without some benefit.

The South District of the Yellow Springs Realm didn't move Mo Lin's heart.

"I will exchange my life for yours!"

Su Yunling lowered her head earnestly, showing no sign of joking.

"In one month's time, you will die, at the hands of your most intimate person."

"Impossible, there are no close persons left for me in this world."

As soon as the words fell, Mo Lin thought of his elder sister.

Could it be that elder sister will strike against me?

Mo Lin speculated with a furrowed brow.

"Whatever I divined cannot be wrong. You will definitely die in a month from now."

"This kind of doom is unavoidable. There is only one way to resolve it; I will die in your place."

"I use my life to exchange for yours."

If her words were true, then Mo Lin couldn't possibly refuse this condition.

"What do you want?"

"I want you to avenge me. I also have a fiancé, a man from the Great Spirit Mountain, named Li Yang.

He deceived my feelings and took my Daoist Body. I want you to kill him for me."

In saying this, Su Yunling effectively put forth two matters.

But if she truly could exchange her life for Mo Lin's, completing two tasks for her wasn't a problem.

After all, she had offered her life.

"I can promise these things, but there's a precondition."

"Please state it."

"I want to see, in a month, whether what you say is true," Mo Lin proposed his requirement.

"Alright."

Su Yunling revealed a faint smile, "It's just a pity that after I die, I won't see you avenge me with my own eyes.

Won't be able to see Li Yang perish.

But it's alright."

Her tone was somber, with no hint of jest.

It was as if she was delivering her final testament.

"Give me your hand," Su Yunling said to Mo Lin.

Mo Lin extended his left hand.

Su Yunling took out a red thread, then tied it to Mo Lin's index finger.

The other end of the red thread was tied to her own index finger.

Then, this red thread vanished.

Su Yunling's gaze swept around, then she moved to the center of the hall.

She cut open her index finger with her right hand, then used blood to draw a strange array on the ground.

After that, she outlined a figure on the ground, resembling Mo Lin.

Su Yunling pointed to the outline and said to Mo Lin, "In a month from today, if you wake up here, it proves you have died once.

Likewise, it means I am already dead."

She acted very seriously, and Mo Lin's face lost any hint of a smile.

It looked like Su Yunling was not joking.

No one would be foolish enough to gamble with their life.

After finishing these actions, Su Yunling exhaled heavily in relief.

"My vengeance can finally be fulfilled."

"Why did you choose me?" Mo Lin was curious. He was definitely not the strongest.

Why did Su Yunling choose Mo Lin?

"Divination chose you, so I chose you," Su Yunling answered honestly.

Everything she did followed divination, devoid of personal sentiment.

"Alright then," Mo Lin nodded, not questioning further.

"Is it that mystical?" Wu Wei quipped, "Lord Mo Lin, a month from now, when you come to the Yellow Springs Realm, I'll ensure you won't die."

Mo Lin smiled helplessly.

Wu Wei's thinking was indeed simple.

Things certainly wouldn't be that easy.

Some disasters can't be avoided simply by wanting to.
