"Lydia, think of something!" Luis shouted while trying to dodge the baby"s kick. It was proving to be difficult.

Perhaps it had something to do with the relationship between people and spirits, but it didn"t attack Lydia at all. She stood to the side relaxed and smirking at the scene.

Feng Wu was also just as relaxed. It had attacked her, but not as much as everyone else. It was strange. It only attacked her once in the entire time, while everyone else had been attacked four or times each.

"Xiao Wu, be careful. See if there"s a way to destroy the spirit." Though Jier"s flames couldn"t hurt the spirit, it did act as a deterrent. The second least attacked person was Jier.

"I know." Feng Wu nodded before asking Lydia a few questions. The girls had a good relationship so after answering Feng Wu"s questions, she obediently flew to the air and stayed out of the way. She would watch but not help.

After a moment more of thought Feng Wu yelled out to those trying to evade the baby, "Everyone, get out of the way!"

They had no idea what she wanted to do, but they obediently scrambled out of the way, leaving a large open s.p.a.ce between Feng Wu and the baby.

Feng Wu did not disappoint. Everyone watched as a sword with an incredibly ancient aura emerged from her hand. Yes it was Xiao Chun. He chirped cheerfully, not trying to disguise his body in the least. It had been a long time since he came out to play so he was really happy.

Jier"s expression changed for a moment when he saw the sword, but he quickly covered it up. The others knew the sword was of extraordinary origins, but they didn"t know what it was. Tian Ya had a guess but he kept it to himself. He didn"t care about other people"s secrets.

Xiao Chun"s appearance made the little baby spirit tremble. It had been arrogantly flying around and messing with everyone but now it looked like it was actually afraid.

With Xiao Chun in hand, Feng Wu stepped closer to the little baby spirit. Surprisingly, though it was scared to the point of trembling uncontrollably, it did not try to run. It was really strange! The group was puzzled but they refrained from asking questions.

Feng Wu stabbed the little spirit with Xiao Chun. It instantly let out a high-pitched miserable sound. The sound was sharp enough to break a person"s eardrums.

It befuddled their minds, but fortunately it didn"t last long. They thought the little baby spirit was finally defeated. Unexpectedly it was replaced by a normal baby spirit.

This one was white. He seemed confused. Then he turned to Feng Wu and a look of grat.i.tude filled his eyes. He looked like a contrite child who knew he had misbehaved and was now waiting to be scolded.

"It"s OK. Be careful next time and don"t make the same mistake again." Feng Wu spoke seriously to the little spirit.

The little spirit nodded and winked away in a flash of light.

With the baby spirit gone, Xiao Chun returned to Feng Wu"s dantian.

The six people, Ai Lin, Zi Cheng, Yifu, Wind, and the couple woke up. They were cursed by the little spirit"s touch and fell into a coma, so they naturally woke up once the baby spirit was purified.

"Thank you adventurers! Thank you so much!" The poor couple had just watched their daughter die in front of their eyes, then they themselves were nearly eaten by an evil spirit. They had aged greatly in those few minutes. They were worn out.

"You"re welcome. There might be a big commotion outside later. No matter what you hear, remain indoors. Do not go outside. And if it rains, make sure you don"t touch any of the rain. Something bad will happen to you if you do." Luis warned the couple. They didn"t have a lot of time so they needed to hurry to the next family as fast as they could.

"What happened just now? Did you guys kill the spirit?" Wind asked Pei Qing. He couldn"t remember anything after being hit by the spirit. By the time he woke up the battle was won and everything was settled. He didn"t get to see anything, so of course he grabbed Pei Qing and immediately asked.

"No not destroyed. It was put back into the wheel of reincarnation. You"ll have to ask Lydia if you want to know the specifics. I"m not too clear on the whole thing myself." Pei Qing glanced coldly at Wind before briskly walking away.

It wasn"t just Wind who was curious. Even those who were conscious throughout the battle were confused. How was the evil baby spirit purified? How did it even end up in the girl"s belly to begin with?

They were all interested in hearing Lydia"s explanation.

"Actually the baby spirit was an ordinary spirit. We, all of us, take spiritual form after we die so we can reincarnate afterwards. The when and where will take care of itself. We won"t be able to resist the pull even if we want to. Contracted spirits like me are an exception.

There is a requirement though. The spiritual form can"t have any grudges or resentment attached to it. Those with resentment can"t reincarnate.

Some babies die shortly after birth, others die in the womb. The spirit we saw was the spirit of a baby in that situation."

The group listened to Lydia"s explanation as they walked. Apparently people reincarnated after death. It was the first time they heard such a thing. After all, what wandering necromancer would ever divulge trade secrets like that?
