Chapter 301 Gathering Souls at the Cemetery - Unresolved Injustices

It was from that encounter on the rooftop that Liu Anning began to observe everything about Li Xuan with just a simple sentence, writing down every move he made in his notebook.

Everyone at the class reunion had a strange look on their faces. Wasn't this just a case of unrequited love and yandere behavior?
Li Xuan didn't know how to describe his feelings, so he could only silently say, "Thank you for your kind words, Liu Anning."

He couldn't, and wouldn't, reciprocate this feeling...

Romantic relationships should not be compromised out of pity.

After reading all the documents, Li Xuan tidied them up and put them back in the file bag, saying, "Auntie, I am very sorry about what happened to Liu Anning. May I ask what caused her suicide?"

Anning's mother carefully put the folder away and said, "Our family is very poor. Anning is a very hardworking child. She has been very sensible since she was a child. She has never asked us for anything for entertainment. She will even wear clothes repeatedly as long as they are fit."

Her father fell from a construction site fifteen years ago and became permanently disabled. The boss ran away, and our life has always been very difficult.

Anning studies hard so that she can get a good job after graduating from university and earn money to support her family.

Unexpectedly, the company she joined after graduation wanted to "train" her and had her sign a contract to become the legal representative. She later discovered that any losses, bankruptcy, liquidation, or crimes of the company would be attributed to her, because the legal representative was implicitly considered to be the manager with direct responsibility.

The company looked large, but apart from giving Anning the legal representative, it didn't grant her any other authority. Two months later, the shareholders ran away, leaving behind a pile of bad debts. Customers reported it to the police, and the police and tax authorities discovered that the company had serious problems, including tax evasion and falsifying accounts, and it had practically become an empty shell company...

Anning found herself facing criminal charges and a mountain of debt she couldn't afford.

The day after she received the notification, she jumped from the building…

Using a legal representative is a common tactic employed by unscrupulous companies to evade their responsibilities and risks. They typically target college students, deceiving them into signing documents that appear to be legitimate legal representatives.

did not expect……

Liu Anning will fall into such a trap.

Li Xuan remained silent. The last sentence in Liu Anning's notes read: "I love you. I thought I was worthy of your talent, but my foolishness has only widened the distance between us. I'm sorry..."

The page with the sentence written in the notebook has wrinkled, round water stains, probably caused by tears falling on it when Liu Anning wrote it.

Anning's mother said, "Anning likes you. Could you please go and see her to fulfill her longing for you before she died?"

Knowing her words might have been inappropriate, she added, "Auntie isn't forcing you. It's fine whether you go or not. I just don't have much to do for her right now, so..."

The class reunion, which was originally going to be quite lively, became depressing because of this incident.

The real world is always full of dramatic and absurd things. Li Xuan suddenly felt that his vacation didn't need to be so long. He looked at Anning's mother and said, "Auntie, which cemetery is Anning buried in? Give me the address and burial number. I'll find some time to visit her..."

Anning's mother paused for a moment, then said, "Why don't I join you..."

Li Xuan's expression was somewhat solemn: "Auntie, you should be able to understand."

In the adult world, there aren't so many "shoulds" and "shouldn'ts." Li Xuan doesn't accept moral coercion; he just wanted to see Liu Anning out of courtesy and reason, since they were classmates.

There's a scene like this in the Hong Kong film "The God of Cookery":
Stephen Chow said to Double-Knife Turkey, "If everyone takes a knife for me and then confesses their love to me, do I have to say yes to them?"

Li Xuan could roughly understand Stephen Zhou's feelings; although their approaches differed, they ultimately reached the same goal.

After the class reunion, everyone went their separate ways.

Li Xuan walked out of the hotel, looking at the cemetery address An Ning's mother had sent him on his phone. He thought for a moment, and since he had already agreed, he decided to take care of it while he was at it, and then continue his adventures in the other world. He felt he had "social anxiety" and began to subconsciously avoid some things in real life.

Baishan Cemetery.

The entire Baishan area is essentially a cemetery, with different sections and varying prices.

Li Xuan rode a shared bicycle in a "budget-friendly" area and found Liu Anning's grave. It was a flat cement grave. Because cremation was encouraged, there was a cement cover that could be pried open to put the ashes in, saving space and even accommodating several ashes.

The marble tombstone is inscribed with "Tomb of Liu Anning" and inlaid with a finely carved stone photograph of Liu Anning. It was taken during her freshman year of college, by a classmate during military training. In the photo, she is smiling shyly.

Li Xuan looked around; there were no surveillance cameras watching this area.

With his left hand, he produced the "Judge's Sutra," flipped through the pages, found a soul-gathering incantation, chanted the incantation, and pointed his index finger at Liu Anning's tombstone to summon his soul...

Back then, Li Xuan and Wang Anlu talked a lot about things in the real world, and naturally they also asked where people in the real world go after they die.

Lu Jian said, “This mortal world is the ‘ultimate reality,’ seemingly forbidding all divine arts and magic. Therefore, even if we exert all our strength here, we are probably no match for a strong mortal. Similarly, when you mortals die, your souls scatter back to heaven and earth, and it is difficult for them to reunite. Death is truly and completely disappearing without a trace!”

But Li Xuan is an exception in the real world; his cultivation and spells can be used without any hindrance.

Therefore, he attempted to gather the soul, hoping to reunite the dissipated soul of Liu Anning.

She was framed and killed; she deserves a chance to appeal.

A gust of wind swept through the cemetery, rustling the leaves and branches and bending the weeds low. As Li Xuan channeled his magic, a blurry figure slowly appeared before the tombstone.

The translucent Liu Anning appeared to be asleep standing up, completely still.

Li Xuan whispered, "Liu Anning, wake up."

He was somewhat surprised. His soul had been scattered, and only a Yin General of the Underworld could reassemble a soul into a physical form. He had only tried it out, but he hadn't expected to actually succeed...

Liu Anning woke up from her dazed state and opened her eyes to see Li Xuan standing in front of her.

Shock, surprise, panic.

She looked at her translucent hands, then at Li Xuan: "I... I feel like I slept for a very long time. Li... Li Xuan, did you wake me up?"

Li Xuan nodded: "There was a class reunion tonight. My aunt told me about you. I didn't realize you had been dead for three years. I'm so sorry that I'm only coming to see you now."

A look of shame appeared on Liu Anning's face: "I'm sorry for bothering you because of my matter."

She said, "Did my mom... show you the letters and diaries I left behind?"

Li Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't expect that I would have girls who like me at school. Thank you."

Liu Anning suddenly didn't know where to put his hands.

Li Xuan got straight to the point: "I'm here for two things. First, I'm trying to gather your soul and send you to the underworld to be reincarnated. Second, I want you to tell me who framed you by signing the legal representative agreement. As karma turns, they will surely get their comeuppance."
