My Demon Husband Is Chapter 857: The Confession

Chapter 857: Chapter 857: The Confession

"I’m fine, thank you for helping

up, Yun Hao. You should go back and rest; your injury needs to heal with rest." I pulled away from Yun Hao’s hand, responding with as steady a voice as possible.

Yun Hao, being a demon, couldn’t enter City A, especially when he was also suffering from backlash.

The matter of dealing with the weasel could be left to him, but investigating the Lin Family was sothing I had to do myself.

Yun Hao frowned, "With you like this, how can I be at ease? What did you hear on the phone?"

He was a gentleman, disdaining to eavesdrop on others’ calls.

Even with his abilities, he could easily overhear inadvertently and might even intentionally avoid it.

"My grandfather’s Lin Family is having so trouble." I considered it and felt there was no need to hide this from Yun Hao.

If I deceived him and it was exposed later, with his sensitive nature, who knows what he’d think.

Yun Hao’s expression changed, "Is there anything I can help with?"

"The best help you can give is to stay at the Snake Sect and recuperate." I shivered slightly from the cold, "The situation in City A is already unclear, and besides..."

Yun Hao interrupted , "I know, if I go, it’ll be even more chaotic."

His silvery-gray eyes were as cold and deep as an ancient well. After removing his outer robe, he turned it inside out and draped it over .

He made sure to maintain the proper distance between n and won.

"Mm." I tightened my collar, accepting his kindness.

At this mont, Liu Xianzhi approached with two subordinates, looking anxious to discuss sothing with .

Yun Hao glanced over, bid farewell to , "Goodnight."

Then, he turned and left.

"What’s wrong?" I asked Liu Xianzhi.

Liu Xianzhi whispered to , "Liu Hongluan confessed. She has pledged allegiance to the Ten Thousand Poison Hall."

"Anything else?" I asked indifferently about Liu Hongluan’s matters, my thoughts consud by the Lin Family’s troubles.

At present, my Taoist Heart was nearly shattered, and I couldn’t use the Seven-Star Golden Lotus Step temporarily.

Even knowing that walking back would be slower, I still hurried back to my residence as fast as possible.

Liu Xianzhi followed by my side, showing

a straw doll, "This is a Forbidden Woman Witchcraft doll, with your birth details on it, found in a tree hollow on the mountain."

"Is this doll the source of my nightmares?" I glanced at it as I stepped into the Lotus Courtyard.

Plans for what to take to the Lin Family were already forming in my mind.

Needles and threads related to the Life and Death Embroidery must be packed, and I’ll bring several Immortal Peaches as rations, but nothing else is necessary.

Liu Xianzhi nodded, "The person performing the Forbidden Woman Witchcraft was too far from the sect, so Liu Hongluan had to take the doll to you for it to work. Liu Hongluan confessed that besides holding the doll near you, she was also responsible for monitoring dream contents."

I entered the room, haphazardly stuffing things into a box.

My actions slowed a bit, as if asking Liu Xianzhi, or talking to myself, "Monitoring??"

This word... is very nuanced...

"Yes, that’s what she said. The task given to her by the Ten Thousand Poison Hall included preventing the Forbidden Woman from placing other things in the dreams."

"Was the Forbidden Woman creating the nightmares coerced?"

"She didn’t say, but it should be, otherwise there’d be no need to specifically monitor the nightmares created by her, which clearly shows distrust." Liu Xianzhi looked at what I was packing and asked, "Are you leaving the sect, Madam?"

I was silent for a while, not answering Liu Xianzhi, then asked, "Does Liu Hongluan know the Forbidden Woman who cast the spell?"

Since it was an interrogation, Liu Xianzhi couldn’t possibly not ask Liu Hongluan about her relationship with Qing Li or why she knew Qing Li was at the Lin Family.
