After all, the statue had taken on Chen Muxue's likeness, and they were unsure of the true purpose of the altar. But since that soul and Xiao Feng, and even Chen Muxue's other self, valued the statue so much, it must hold some significance.
Given this, if more people with ulterior motives saw the statue resembling Chen Muxue, it might inevitably bring further misfortune to her; therefore, Cen Lizhui carefully restored the mound.
Inside the forbidden grounds, the crows remained active, watching the two as they walked side by side, each with bright eyes staring at them. This uncanny feeling inexplicably reminded Chen Muxue of witch surveillance.
