Liu Zixuan scratched his head, "Yesterday I went to the Ghost Market and also stopped by the Celestial Secret Pavilion. I wanted to ask, is this Celestial Secret Pavilion really that mysterious?"

Liu Zixuan was still in a state of disbelief regarding the old man's words, although he had first provided him information and then asked for a reward.

But after all, it's the Seven-Star Tomb, if he finds the wrong place, or doesn't find it at all, it would undoubtedly be a waste of Liu Zixuan's time!

At this moment, it's only natural to be more certain!

Lao Wei gave an odd smile, "Then you've really asked the right person!"

"Oh?" Liu Zixuan said suspiciously.

"I have a nephew who is one of the managers of the Ghost Market." Lao Wei said with a smile, "Those things you see at the stalls and things that appear out of thin air, before the Ghost Market opens, they're all stored with my nephew. He is also like the branch manager of the Ghost Market in Ghost Wood City!"

"About the Ghost Market, I've heard a lot from him, the most famous auction house in there is the Mandarin Duck Pavilion, right?"

"Exactly!" Liu Zixuan nodded, surprised that Lao Wei had such a connection!

He previously wondered how those things in the Ghost Market could just appear there, turns out they were all stored in the city beforehand!

"The most famous auction house is the Mandarin Duck Pavilion, but the most mysterious is the Celestial Secret Pavilion. According to my nephew, this Celestial Secret Pavilion is different from the Mandarin Duck Pavilion and so on inside."

Lao Wei paused and smiled, "They have branches in almost every major city, and their headquarters is called the Celestial Secret Sect, which is one of the few mysterious forces in Star Sea!"

"No wonder they dare to call themselves Celestial Secret! So it seems that their reliability is quite high!" Liu Zixuan murmured.

"That's for certain." Lao Wei said with a smile, "Do you need help from the Celestial Secret Pavilion?"

"I've been there before, planning to go again tonight to see if I can get some other treasures!"

Hearing Liu Zixuan's words, Lao Wei said, "Then I'll have a word with my nephew, if there's any problem inside, you can always find him!"

"Thank you, Lao Wei!"

"It's nothing, well, you get busy, I'm heading back to the hospital." With that, Lao Wei headed outside.

After Lao Wei left, Liu Zixuan was just about to tidy up and start business when suddenly his phone rang.

It was Wu Mei calling!

"What's up, Sister Wu?" Liu Zixuan answered the phone and asked.

"Ying Gu probably can't hold on any longer. If you have anything to ask her, now is a good time. Moreover, someone just called Ying Gu!" Wu Mei said from the other end.

"Who was it?"

"The name 'Liu' was written on it. I suspect it's someone from the Willow Association, but I didn't answer it. Do you want to come and take a look?"

Hearing Wu Mei's words, Liu Zixuan raised his eyebrows, "Wait for me, I'm on my way!"

After hanging up the phone, Liu Zixuan murmured, "Could it be that people from the Willow Association have already arrived in Ghost Wood City?"

He quickly packed up and closed the clinic, then drove directly to Wu Mei's villa.

This villa was the same one where Zuo Chenggong died. Initially, Wu Mei wanted to sell it because of Zuo Chenggong, but after the incident with Ying Gu, it was put on hold.

After arriving here, Liu Zixuan walked into the living room with ease, finding Wu Mei sitting like a queen on a leather sofa, sipping a glass of red wine! Beside her stood two burly men! Like her bodyguards!

However, the scene before him was rather chaotic!

Ying Gu, disheveled and disarrayed, was sitting on the floor, her face pale and her eyes somewhat vacant!

Beside her were several very messy-looking men, their clothes were tattered, but each had a happy expression.

Liu Zixuan smirked; he didn't need to think much to know that Ying Gu had probably been living with these beggars all these days!

"Let them all out!" Wu Mei said to the two burly men.

"Yes!" The two burly men drove the beggars out, but each of them seemed reluctant to leave, their eyes on Ying Gu filled with nostalgia and endless aftertaste!

"To torment someone, sometimes you don't need to use what she dislikes the most to disgust her; I think using the thing she desires most is true torment!"

Wu Mei stood up, smiling, "Doesn't Ying Gu like men? The past few days, she's been surrounded by quite a few of them, but now you see, this woman is almost driven mad by torment!"

Liu Zixuan shrugged, "No kidding! Look at her weak state, people always say dying under peonies is romantic, but what is this? Dying under beggars' loins is romantic too?"

"Haha!" Wu Mei couldn't help but laugh, "I always hear intriguing things coming from your mouth!"

"Where's her phone?" Liu Zixuan asked.

"Here!"

Wu Mei picked up a phone from a table on the side and handed it over, "A call came in, I didn't answer it, and after it was missed, a text came in!"

Liu Zixuan nodded, opening the phone. In the missed calls, there was a number marked with 'Liu', and in the message box, it read: Call back after you're done. Just four words!

Liu Zixuan rubbed his chin pondering for a while, "It seems this time, people from the Willow Association have come!"

"Are they here to save her?" Wu Mei frowned and asked.

"I fear people from the Willow Association aren't aware she's in this state yet," Liu Zixuan thought for a moment, "Not sure what they're here for, let me ask Ying Gu a few things first."

"You go ahead, I'll go upstairs to get something. After this is done, this house should be sold!" Wu Mei said before heading upstairs.

Liu Zixuan sat on the sofa, crossed his arms, and looked down at Ying Gu.

Grinning, he said, "If only you knew this would happen, why did you do what you did before?"

"Liu Zixuan, seeing me like this, are you very happy? Satisfied?"

"It's alright, after all, beggars are people too. I was always considering getting you with something non-human!" Liu Zixuan said teasingly.

"You!" Ying Gu widened her eyes, her face flushed red, "Ask whatever you want, but I have a condition!"

"Let's hear it!"

"After you ask, kill me; I don't want to be tormented like this anymore!" Ying Gu was truly fed up.

In the past decades, she had always lived a life of privilege; she always had plenty of money and men fell over themselves for her, and she wouldn't even glance at beggars like them before.

But now, she had no money, plenty of men indeed, but they were her most disgusted beggars! She had to do those things with beggars every day.

Though she knew she was far from innocent, she felt even more filthy and disgusting at this moment!
