This is a matter of several lives. Unable to help the Wraith, I immediately appeared. My appearance made the Wraith let out a miserable scream. She immediately froze in place, holding her head tightly. "Ah, you, what are you?" Young Man was shocked when he saw my appearance. After all, I also appeared suddenly. "Don't worry, my appearance is a good thing for you. I'm here to save you." After I said these words, I separated the Evil Spirit from the mother's body. When they saw this scene, they were stunned. After I put all the Evil Spirit in my sleeves, they came to their senses. By this time, the mother had returned to her normal appearance and kept screaming in pain. "God, you are a god, please save my daughter-in-law, she is innocent." Young Man knelt in front of me, and then his family also knelt in front of me, looking begging. Holding me. This is what I should do. I nodded and gave the mother a hint of immortality. After the mother gained the fairy spirit, she felt much better and her mood stabilized. She no longer yelled like before. Slowly, the mother entered a peaceful state, and within a short time, the baby safely made a sound. The baby's announcement made people in Old Chen Family excited. They Old Chen Family finally have a baby. "Thank you. If it weren't for you, our Old Chen Family would have cried to death," an older man said excitedly. "It's okay, but you Old Chen Family did make a mistake. Regarding the Wraith thing, I'm afraid it was you Old Chen Family who made the mistake first," I said to them. They lowered their heads and didn't speak. I glanced at the enemy who was imprisoned on my sleeve and continued, "Although I have controlled her, I still have to let her go." Before I could speak, Old Chen Family The person spoke first and said, "Why, Master, if you let her go, wouldn't she continue to harm my Chen family?" 0
I looked at the middle-aged man, whose face was filled with worry, and said, "If you want her to stop haunting you, then you must do as I say." 0
 
"Master, whatever you say goes," the middle-aged man quickly nodded in agreement. 0
 
I glanced at the pregnant woman and asked, "Where have you laid her remains?" 0
 
Upon hearing my question, the members of the Old Chen Family fell silent, their heads bowed low as if afraid I might read something from their eyes. 0
 
I shook my head helplessly and said, "If you continue like this, I won't be able to help you." 0
 
With that, I pretended to walk out. I knew that the Old Chen Family would find a way to keep me because they believed only I could save their family. 0
 
Sure enough, just as I was about to step out the door, someone from the Old Chen Family called out to me. 0
 
"Have you made up your minds?" I asked. 0
 
The members of the Old Chen Family seemed to have made a significant decision as they nodded at me. "Master, we will tell you." 0
 
I turned back, satisfied with their response. 0
 
"Master, let me take you there; we can't explain it well ourselves." 0
 
I nodded in agreement. Since the pregnant woman needed care, the eldest member of the Old Chen Family led me. 0
 
"Master, it's right over there," he said as he brought me to a ravine. 0
 
As I looked at the ravine, I frowned because a foul stench emanated from it, making it difficult to bear. 0
 
 
"You placed her bones here," I said, somewhat surprised. 0
 
Perhaps the members of the Old Chen Family also felt it was excessive, as they lowered their heads and fell silent. 0
 
"It seems she harmed you as well," I remarked. 0
 
"Master, you..." 0
 
I waved my hand, signaling him to stop talking and just continue leading me. 0
 
The members of the Old Chen Family walked ahead of me, and we drew closer to the stinking ditch. 0
 
Suddenly, one of them stopped in front of me and wouldn’t move. 0
 
"What’s wrong?" I asked curiously. 0
 
He pointed to a spot ahead and said, "Master, I won’t go over there. You can go if you want." 0
 
I looked at him in confusion. Was there something hidden here? 0
 
"What’s going on?" 0
 
The member of the Old Chen Family fell silent again. I didn’t press further but walked toward the spot he indicated. 0
 
It was a stinking ditch, and just as I was pondering this, I noticed a small grave beside it. In front of the grave were ten wooden stakes. I squinted my eyes, a cold glint flashing within them. The Old Chen Family had gone too far; not only had they treated that girl like this, but they also wanted to prevent her from reincarnating after death. 0
 
A surge of anger erupted from my chest, and I immediately removed the ten wooden stakes from the small grave. 0
 
Behind me, the member of the Old Chen Family who had been watching my every move rushed forward, looking anxious as he said, "Master, why did you remove those stakes? That’s not something you should do!" 0
 
 
I looked at him, his face filled with anxiety, and I couldn't help but feel anger rising within me. "You from the Old Chen Family have gone too far. That girl was tormented by you during her life, and not only do you feel no guilt about it, but after her death, you've also ruined her chance at reincarnation. How cruel can you be?" 0
 
Faced with my accusations, the Old Chen Family member was momentarily speechless. My frustration grew, and I said to him, "You should go back now. I'll handle things here. In the future, your family must not commit such acts again; otherwise, no one will be able to protect you." 0
 
The members of the Old Chen Family were taken aback for a moment but quickly nodded in agreement before leaving. 0
 
I released the Wraith. Upon seeing me, she appeared frightened, as if worried that I would destroy her. 0
 
"Are you afraid of me?" I asked. 0
 
She nodded in response. "Yes." 0
 
I casually moved aside the small grave behind me, revealing her remains. Her bones were contained within a small Wooden Box, which was entwined with thin red threads. On top of the red threads was a talisman. 0
 
"Do you see this? These things are weighing down on you. If they continue to press upon your bones, do you know what the consequences will be?" My tone was serious. 0
 
"I know, but I can't do anything about it because I'm afraid of what’s on the Wooden Box," she said, suddenly lowering her head with a look of despair. 0
 
"I have a method that can help you and even change your fate. Would you like to try?" I offered. 0
 
As soon as I spoke those words, she lifted her head, her expression one of surprise as she asked, "Is what you're saying true? Do you really have the ability to help me?" 0
 
I nodded earnestly and repeated my previous statement. 0
 
She was very excited and asked what she needed to do. 0
 
"Give me your Birth Date and Time, your name, and the Birth Date and Time of your deceased child," I instructed. 0
 
 
When she heard this, her expression suddenly changed for the worse. I knew she was thinking of the innocent child who had died, and indeed, it was a tragic matter; that child had died so unjustly. 0
 
She provided me with the information I needed, and I learned her name was Xiaomin. 0
 
I wrote down Xiaomin's birth date and time along with all the information on a Heavenly Book. Using the authority of the Heavenly Emperor, I altered Xiaomin's previous fate, and a golden light radiated from her body. 0
 
Seeing the golden light appear around her, Xiaomin looked frightened and seemed to struggle a bit. 0
 
"Don't be afraid; this is to protect you," I said to her. 0
 
After hearing my words, Xiaomin nodded and stopped moving. 0
 
Once the new fate descended upon Xiaomin, she detached from her ghostly form and became a special being. 0
 
"What's happening? This is strange," Xiaomin said, her tone filled with excitement. 0
 
I smiled and replied, "There's nothing strange about it. I've given you a new life. However, I would like you to go through some trials in the celestial realm. Would you be willing?" 0
 
"What kind of place is that?" Xiaomin asked, looking at me with confusion. Then her eyes widened as she exclaimed, "Wait, who are you? You're not an ordinary person, are you?" 0
 
I nodded but didn't reveal my identity as the Heavenly Emperor. Xiaomin was quite clever; noticing I wasn't going to elaborate further, she continued to press on this topic. 0
 
"Alright then, I'll trust you," Xiaomin said without hesitation. 0
 
This surprised me; I hadn't expected Xiaomin to trust me so readily without a second thought. I couldn't help but feel amused and curious as I asked, "Aren't you afraid that I might be trying to harm you?" 0
 
Xiaomin chuckled bitterly and replied, "I've already been harmed to this extent; what more can I worry about? Besides, given my current state, what do I have left to fear? Moreover, you've already given me a chance at rebirth; I have nothing more to say." 0
 
 
I nodded, feeling very satisfied with Xiaomin's words. 0
 
"Alright, once you have gained some experience, I will give you a Celestial Position." 0
 
The mention of "Celestial Position" made Xiaomin's emotions surge again, and I nodded in response. 0
 
"Could it be that you are..." Xiaomin looked at me in disbelief. 0
 
"Enough. You can consider the matter with the Old Chen Family settled, alright?" I asked. 0
 
Xiaomin's gaze showed some hesitation. After thinking for a moment, she nodded and agreed. I then opened the portal to the Celestial Realm for her. 0
 
After giving me a glance, Xiaomin stepped inside, and I closed the portal, hoping that when she returned from her experiences, I would see satisfactory results. 0
 
I returned to the Old Chen Family to see what their final outcome was. I knew that the cycle of karma would ensure that the Old Chen Family would receive equal punishment. 0
 
When I arrived back at the Old Chen Family, I was shocked to find that the two oldest members had died. 0
 
The child born to the daughter-in-law of the Old Chen Family was the child Xiaomin had been pregnant with in her previous life. 0
 
As I was leaving the Old Chen Family, I encountered the Black and White Impermanence from the Underworld. Upon seeing me, they immediately bowed. 0
 
I nodded and did not hinder them. 0
 
After resolving matters with the Old Chen Family, I felt that I had gained something. I then made my way to where Ruoxi was with Li Jie. 0
 
Now, Ruoxi had transformed into a graceful young girl. The last time, the Bandit Leader had brought her back to the Village, and in just a few short years, Ruoxi had turned the place where the Bandits lived into a much better environment. 0
 
 
I looked at Ruoxi, who was incredibly beautiful, and my heart filled with joy. 0
 
"Miss, don't run away! If the boss finds out, we'll be in trouble again!" At that moment, I saw Ruoxi mount a horse, happily taking off at a gallop. The people behind her were so startled that they broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly chased after her, trying to get her to stop. However, it seemed that Ruoxi had taken a liking to the feeling of riding and sped off even faster. 0
 
I felt a twinge of worry; what if she accidentally fell off the horse? 0
 
Just then, I noticed Ruoxi's body starting to lose balance, swaying from side to side. My heart tightened at the sight, and I quickly stepped forward to catch her. 0
 
Ruoxi was momentarily stunned when she saw me, her eyes reflecting a familiar gaze. 0
 
I spun her around in mid-air before gently setting her down. Ruoxi seemed dazed, still staring at me. 0
 
"Ruoxi." Seeing her like this made my heart flutter uncontrollably. 0
 
"You... you know me?" Ruoxi blinked in confusion as she looked at me. 0
 
It suddenly dawned on me that this version of Ruoxi had lost all memories of her past life and didn't recognize me. I nodded and smiled gently at her. Just then, the people chasing after Ruoxi arrived and saw me holding her. They immediately shouted at me angrily, "Boldness! How dare you treat our young lady like this? Do you want to get yourself killed?" 0
