Li Sui held his own eyes and looked out from his father ’s navel, secretly watching.
Someone was just singing something, and she thought someone had come, but there was nothing.


”Dad, why did I only hear someone ’s voice but didn ’t see anyone? Where is that person? ” Li Sui ’s question did not receive an answer, and she couldn ’t help but worry, ”Dad, are you blaming me? ”

Li Sui didn ’t think it was her fault.
She really didn ’t expect that there would be two fathers, one headless and one with a head.

It was understandable that she didn ’t hear the command from her headless father and came out of his body to go to her father with a head.

But at this moment, Li Huowang had no time to pay attention to Li Sui.
He looked at the direction of the capital with confusion.
He was very certain that the strange chanting sound was coming from the direction of the capital.

At first, he thought it was just his illusion, but when he saw some people rolling on the ground in pain, Li Huowang understood that this matter was definitely not trivial.

He could feel it even though he was so far away from the capital, so he wondered how big the scope of this incident was.

”Something big must have happened in the capital.
I can ’t wait any longer.
I must hurry back.
Has the Celestial Court started to suppress the Taoist sects that deceive beings? ”

Li Huowang started to rush back, but he hadn ’t reached the capital even after walking until late at night.
There was no other way.
After all, he came empty-handed, but now he had a heavy corpse to carry back.

Although the head was gone, Li Huowang hadn ’t forgotten that he was Xin Su.
When he found a way to refine Xin Su, his body would definitely be of great use.

After draining his blood, he covered himself inside and out with coarse salt for simple preservation.


Looking at the winter sky, taking a breath, wiping the sweat off his face, Li Huowang put down the corpse on his back and turned to the woods to find firewood.

It was just after the New Year, and the weather was still very cold.
It wouldn ’t do to sleep without a bonfire at night, as it could easily lead to frostbite.

While Li Huowang was cutting branches with his Purple Spike Sword, white snowflakes slowly fell from the sky.
It was the first snow Li Huowang had seen in this world.

Looking up at the white furry moon that appeared and disappeared in the sky, Li Huowang exhaled a breath of white air, and his movements became faster.

He needed to cut more.
It would definitely be colder tonight.

”Kacha kacha ” as the fire sickle rubbed continuously, sparks flew out, but the sparks fell onto small branches and couldn ’t ignite them.

Li Huowang tried a few more times and suddenly thought of something.
He took out an old almanac from his pocket.

”Kacha kacha ” a few more clicks, Li Huowang threw the ignited almanac into the firewood pile, and a bonfire was lit.

With the orange-red firelight reflecting on Li Huowang ’s face and hands, he immediately felt more comfortable.


Li Huowang leaned his body against the bonfire and slowly closed his eyes, back to back with his headless corpse.

”Hey, Taoist, let me tell you something. ” The hallucination monk suddenly approached and said.

”I ’m tired.
I have a lot of things to do when I arrive in the capital tomorrow.
Let ’s talk about it another day. ”

”No, that guy named Red, who has no face, do you remember? I heard him say that you can turn fake things into real ones.
Is that true? ”

Li Huowang slowly opened his eyes and looked at the bald head that was getting closer to his face.

The monk rubbed his hands and said with some anticipation, ”Is that possible…
maybe…
perhaps…
in the future, can you also turn us into real ones? ”

”What? ” Li Huowang suddenly felt wide awake and sat up abruptly, looking around at the hallucinations of Peng Longteng, Red, Jinshan, and the monk.

Li Huowang ’s eyes narrowed, staring at Red ’s face without skin.
”You fooled the monk to probe me.
What do you mean? ”

”Hehe, nothing special.
I ’m just curious.
Think about it, if you kill me and then make me real, wouldn ’t that be interesting? ” Red said happily.

”Heh, keep dreaming.
In dreams, anything is possible. ”


”Ah, you ’re being heartless.
After all, we have gone through thick and thin together as a family.
If we become real in the future, we can also help you if you encounter any trouble. ”

”Don ’t worry, if I really become real, I won ’t harm you.
I ’ve realized that you are quite interesting, especially when you pretended to be Red before, it had the taste of our Taoist sects that deceive beings! ”

Li Huowang couldn ’t be bothered to deal with him and simply closed his eyes to sleep.

In the midst of warmth and coldness, Li Huowang didn ’t know when he fell asleep again.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself buried in the snow.

Taking a breath of dry air and chewing on a handful of snow, Li Huowang dragged his frozen body and walked towards the capital step by step.

There were spies in the capital, and if he brought the corpse in like this, the Celestial Court would definitely find out.
It would be difficult to explain.

Li Huowang decided to dig a hole and bury his headless corpse on the slope.
Fortunately, it was cold now, and with the salt, it wouldn ’t decay.

Looking at the deserted city gate in front of him, Li Huowang took a deep breath and walked straight in.

He thought that the strange chanting from before would cause chaos in the capital, but nothing happened.
It was just a bit empty due to the snow.

Li Huowang guessed it right.
There were indeed spies from the Celestial Court in the capital.
He was surrounded by people shortly after entering.


Looking at Nangong in front of him, Li Huowang took the initiative to speak, his expression looking very unpleasant.
”Brother Nangong, I was deceived by the Taoist sects that deceive beings. ”

Nangong looked at Li Huowang with a complicated expression and stared at him for a while before speaking, ”Come with me.
You can ’t imagine what the Taoist sects that deceive beings have done using your identity. ”Under the guidance of Nangong, Li Huowang returned to the office of the Skywatch Bureau.
He walked along the wooden corridor, weaving his way through until he arrived in a room filled with a stifling atmosphere.

Theft is never good, try looking at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

Inside the room, a head with its features twisted into a ’Red ’ was brazenly placed on the table, with three sticks of incense inserted in front of it.

Standing next to it was a Taoist in a yellow robe and a Yin-Yang hat, who was continuously waving a copper coin sword in his hand, performing a ritual.

”Lord Skywatch, you ’ve been away for a while. ”

When the Taoist raised his head, Li Huowang saw two infant heads squeezed on the left side of his neck.

”This Skywatch Lord actually has two Elemental Infants, he must be from the Luo sect. ” Li Huowang couldn ’t help but raise his guard in his heart.

The Taoist Skywatch Lord put down his work, sizing up Li Huowang for a moment.
He grabbed the head on the table and threw it towards Li Huowang.

Holding this square head, Li Huowang examined it carefully for a while, then suddenly blurted out in shock.

”What?! This ’Red ’ from the Taoist sects that deceive beings is actually Xin Su?! ”
