Just like Zhang Feng.

Qin Huan had the same peculiar expression!

Because standing in front of him was not a master or a mentor, but a giant screen!

And on this screen, a video call was actually connecting!

That's right.

Zhang Feng outside was now also aware.

No wonder he didn't sense any evil cultivator's aura upon landing.

Damn, that evil cultivator wasn't even here!

Good heavens, these people were contacting that evil cultivator through a video call?

If that's the case, why make it so mysterious?

With a light "ding!" sound.

The image on the giant screen in front suddenly changed.

In the pitch-black screen, a man and a woman appeared.

Brother Dog and Brother Chicken, standing beside Qin Huan, instantly fell to the ground with a fanatical demeanor, kneeling straight down with a "plop!"

And they even knocked their heads on the ground.

Both of them spoke in unison.

"Disciple, grand-disciple, pay respects to Master, Grandmaster!"

This scene made Qin Huan couldn't help but curl his lips.

But Zhang Feng, using the Celestial Eye to observe from outside, had his gaze slightly narrowed.

That man was emaciated, with sallow skin, sunken eyes, and no whites in his eyes, only blackness.

It seemed like his eyes were only pupils.

Although Zhang Feng could not see the man's hands, couldn't see if there were any cross tattoos on them.

But Zhang Feng immediately confirmed it.

This was exactly the person he had been searching for!

He finally saw for the first time the hidden evil cultivator in this world!

Both fists slowly clenched.

But Zhang Feng couldn't act recklessly yet.

After all, this was just a video call.

The real evil cultivator's whereabouts were still unknown to him.

Of course, he couldn't alert the snake.

And that woman standing beside the evil cultivator looked like she was in her twenties.

Yet, she was the master that Brother Dog and Brother Chicken were talking about?

This evil cultivator was really playing the field!

Taking a disciple, and it turned out to be a female disciple, this is really... wait a minute!

When Zhang Feng's gaze locked onto this woman.

A familiar feeling surged within him!

Not because she resembled anyone in particular.

But because of her cold pale skin and those hollow, gray eyes.

Ma Xiaotong's figure instantly appeared in Zhang Feng's mind!

"Damn!"

He couldn't help but exclaim inwardly.

This woman, this master of Brother Dog and Brother Chicken... could she be the same kind as Ma Xiaotong?!

Zhang Feng could seal malevolent spirits' souls in corpses, allowing them to live as normal humans.

Evil cultivators have similar methods!

Though the approach is different, the end result is the same, but compared, the evil cultivator's approach is a bit more brutal.

But....

Does this evil cultivator also enjoy playing with ghosts?

Wait....

Why did I use "also"?

"Ahem..."

Zhang Feng couldn't help but cough awkwardly.

At this moment, a hoarse, low voice interrupted Zhang Feng's thoughts.

"You.... hehehe.... finally caught you, hehehe!"

This hoarse voice sounded weak.

But it didn't affect how unpleasant his laughter was!

This evil cultivator directly ignored the kneeling Brother Dog and Brother Chicken.

And directly spoke to Qin Huan, who was handcuffed.

Hearing this evil cultivator's voice, Qin Huan was also confused, speaking with cold light in his eyes:

"What do you mean? Did we know each other before? Why capture me?!"

This was indeed something Qin Huan, and even Zhang Feng, were quite curious about.

And from the video call, the evil cultivator's pitch-black eye sockets suddenly shot out a red light.

Such a situation would definitely startle an ordinary person.

However, Qin Huan's eyes showed a trace of surprise!

Zhang Feng didn't notice this detail.

Because just then, the evil cultivator spoke again:

"What? Forgotten?"

"Ten years ago, your bureau, at Qingshi Mountain, captured my beloved disciple!"

"Now, do you remember?"

Upon hearing this, before Qin Huan could react.

Zhang Feng, who was eavesdropping from outside, had his eyes slightly narrowed.

Ten years ago?

Qingshi Mountain?

Their bureau?

Hmm....

With a strange look in his eyes, Zhang Feng began to ponder.

Wasn't it said that Qin Huan only transitioned from a regular traffic police officer to criminal investigation seven years ago due to outstanding performance, which led to her becoming a criminal investigation team leader?

Ten years ago....

Given Qin Huan's age, she probably hadn't even graduated from the police academy?

So what kind of bureau was it?

To have captured that evil cultivator's disciple?

This short sentence contained so much information that it left Zhang Feng in shock.

However, Qin Huan showed a look of sudden realization, speaking:

"So, you're that person's master?!"

"We've been looking for you for ten years! Didn't expect you were also looking for us?"

The way she said it made a cold light flash in Zhang Feng's eyes.

This "we" that Qin Huan mentioned, who else does it refer to?

Didn't expect Qin Huan had kept things from him?

The matter being hidden felt like a colossal issue!

Zhang Feng gradually calmed his heart.

Luckily, he was worried about Qin Huan and used the Celestial Eye to spy.

Otherwise, who knows how long Qin Huan would have kept this from him!

The evil cultivator's voice came again:

"Oh!"

"Remember now?"

"Hehehe!"

"Good, now that you remember!"

"I've captured you to trade you for my beloved disciple, surely there won't be any objections?"

"Humph!" Qin Huan snorted coldly:

"In your dreams!"

She remained as righteous as ever.

"Hehehe!" But the evil cultivator clearly didn't care:

"That's not up to you now!"

Then, it seemed the evil cultivator no longer wanted to speak to Qin Huan, slowly closing his eyes.

The "woman" standing next to the evil cultivator let out a low shout:

"You two, lift your heads!"

Brother Dog and Brother Chicken, who were motionless on the floor, immediately raised their heads upon hearing this, speaking in unison:

"Master, your words!"

The woman's cold voice slowly spread:

"In three days, it's Master's birthday. Master will personally set off to Haicheng. Take good care of this woman; Master will need her then."​

Their Master's Master was certainly the Grandmaster.

Brother Dog and Brother Chicken dared not neglect, speaking in unison again:

"Master, rest assured, we'll complete the task!"

With these words, the screen went dark.

Obviously, the communication had been cut off.

Brother Dog and Brother Chicken stood up, looking at Qin Huan with disdain, saying:

"Let's go!"

"We'll find a place for you to stay, enjoy your last three good days!"

As they opened the room door.

The golden light in Zhang Feng's eyes also timely disappeared.

All the expressions on his face receded like a tide, returning to a state of confusion, watching the three of them.

Brother Chicken smiled and said to Zhang Feng:

"Don't worry! Master has agreed to take you as a disciple!"

Bullshit!

You guys didn't mention anything about that!

But Zhang Feng didn't care about that.

Becoming the ninth wasn't his goal anyway?

His focus was more on Qin Huan.

He just wanted to know if Qin Huan would voluntarily explain to him about the thing ten years ago, what exactly was that bureau?!
