Chapter 60
The villagers immediately surrounded Stanley.
“Quick, drive these troublemakers away, we’re leaving right now!” At that moment, Stanley quickly shouted, his eyes darting nervously toward me.
I could clearly see the panic on Stanley’s face and also on Xenia’s, who was behind him at that moment.”
Stanley even yelled loudly at the bodyguards and they tried to take him away. But at this point, how could the villagers possibly let them leave?
The village chief directly gave the order for Stanley and the others to be held down. Then he turned to me and said, “Selene, don’t worry. With us here, we won’t let him hurt you!”
“You just do what you need to do! We all support you!“}
After hearing the chief’s words, I finally let out a breath of relief.”
Immediately, I took my grandma’s prayer beads and held them in my hand, then quickly walked up to Stanley.
By now, several villagers were holding him down firmly, leaving him unable to move at all.”
So, when he saw me coming, Stanley’s face still carried a trace of panic.
“Selene, what are you going to do?” he shouted, his expression full of tension.
Hlooked at him and gave a slight smile. Then, I reached out and grabbed the cross pendant hanging around his neck. The moment he saw me reach for it, his face instantly turned pale and he shouted desperately, “Selene, stop!“} At that moment, he was truly flustered.
And I could even see the ghost of Xenia behind him, glared at me viciously. Her eyes, too, carried a trace of panic.
I tore the pendant off, then placed my grandma’s prayer beads onto it. The next second, I heard Xenia’s shrill scream.
At the same time, I pulled out a handful of ashes. These were left by my grandma–she once said they could force spirits to reveal their true form and I had no idea which animal these ashes came from.\
As I sprinkled the ashes onto Xenia, her figure slowly emerged. At the same time, she screamed and her body curled up in pain.[
She raised her head, her pale face twisted in agony, yet her red eyes glared at me with hatred.
“Xenia, are you alright?” Seeing her like that, Stanley’s face turned completely pale.
And the surrounding villagers all took a step back. When they saw Xenia suddenly appear, they finally realized what I had been saying was true.
Only, Xenia now looked utterly pathetic.
“Selene, stop it! If you keep this up, Xenia will really die!” Stanley shouted at me, “If you kill Xenia, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life!”
i didn’t speak. Instead, I looked at him coldly and said, “Stanley, tell me your plan!“}
I fixed my gaze on him as I spoke because I knew very well that he had been plotting to kill me.” Stanley’s expression twisted, his eyes filled with hatred as he looked at me.”
When he still didn’t answer, I immediately pressed the prayer beads against the pendant once more.
That pendant was the vessel where Xenia resided. If I destroyed it, she would surely perish. Seeing my movement, Stanley panicked instantly and hurriedly shouted, “Alright! I’ll talk!“&
