Chapter 881: The Psychic Master 45

He Tongyang nodded after hearing Tang Wan’s explanation.

That made sense. If the birth chart she mentioned truly belonged to a living person, then that would be strange.

Soon, news spread throughout the He family that He Tongyang was going to marry Tang Wan. Although many were curious about her identity, no one dared to investigate privately.

Only a handful of maids knew the truth—and every time they saw the two together, the admiration in their hearts surged like a roaring river.

As expected of the Patriarch.

He dared to marry even the ancestor… even a ghost…

At that point, there was nothing left to say except awe.

With the He family’s full preparations, the wedding day quickly arrived.

That evening, influential figures from all industries who had received invitations gathered at the He family residence to attend the ceremony. Among them were also many from the psychic community.

Since the wedding was held at night, ordinary guests noticed nothing unusual. However, a few highly skilled psychics sensed something strange the moment Tang Wan appeared in her wedding dress.

She… didn’t seem to have a shadow.

The realization startled them.

Given He Tongyang’s strength, it was impossible that he wouldn’t know whether he was marrying a human or a ghost. And yet, he still chose to proceed openly.

After the ceremony, He Tongyang came out to drink with the guests. One of the more perceptive elders approached him quietly and said in a low voice, “Patriarch He… your wife, she seems to be…?”

He Tongyang smiled faintly. “Elder Lin, your eyesight is indeed sharp.”

The other party was momentarily surprised, but quickly regained composure and smiled. “So you are aware.”

He Tongyang gave a small nod but offered no further explanation.

Seeing this, the elder did not press the matter. Someone of He Tongyang’s level was no longer bound by conventional rules. Whoever he chose to marry was entirely his own decision.

Just as the banquet was still ongoing and guests had yet to disperse, a sudden tremor ran through the He family estate.

For a moment, everyone’s expressions changed.

Was it an earthquake?

While people were still processing it, the faces of He Tongyang and the He family elders darkened instantly.

“It’s coming from the ancestral temple!” one of the elders said urgently.

At that moment, He Tongyang’s phone rang. The caller was someone stationed at the ancestral shrine.

He answered immediately, and a panicked voice came through. “Patriarch! Something’s wrong! The evil spirit suppressed beneath the ancestral temple is about to break through the seal!”

He Tongyang’s expression turned cold.

“I understand. I’ll be there immediately.”

After hanging up, he turned to the elders. “Protect the guests. I’m going to the ancestral temple.”

“Yes, Patriarch!”

Before leaving, he glanced at Tang Wan.

She met his gaze and nodded firmly.

The next moment, the two of them rushed toward the He family’s ancestral hall.

By the time they arrived, thick black energy had already begun to spill out above the temple. The air felt heavy, oppressive.

A massive spider leg—over ten meters long—had already pierced through the roof, searching for leverage as it struggled to crawl out.

This was the earth spider that had killed Tang Wan in the past.

Even after hundreds of years, the aura it emitted remained terrifying, enough to make one’s heart tremble. If it fully broke free, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Tongtong, be careful,” Tang Wan said seriously. “This earth spider is extremely powerful.”

She had already taught him every forbidden technique she could.

Now, whether he could suppress this monster… depended entirely on him.
