“Wu Yue, what are you guys doing here? The others who came in… Chen Yin!!”

A few people suddenly darted out from the shore, first seeing Wu Yue, then noticing Chuzheng behind the withered tree.

Why is it that Demon Head again!

The Ghost Spirit lingers on!

Chuzheng glanced at those people, initially a casual sweep, but unexpectedly saw Yan Hongni being protected by someone.

“…”

Oh, where’s Meng Weihan?

Why is Yan Hongni all alone?

Isn’t he afraid she’ll be bullied?

“Brother Wu Yue.” Yan Hongni saw Wu Yue, her eyes shining, coming down from the shore and rushing over.

“Brother Wu Yue, I was so worried about you.” Yan Hongni immediately grabbed Wu Yue’s sleeve: “Are you okay?”

As Yan Hongni spoke, she occasionally side-glanced at Chuzheng.

It’s unclear if she’s declaring it’s her person to Chuzheng or provoking that her relationship with Wu Yue is better.

Wu Yue discreetly pulled back his sleeve: “I’m fine, where is Elder Meng?”

“Master and I got separated.” Yan Hongni did not notice Wu Yue’s oddness: “I met these brothers, so I was with them.”

Chuzheng: “???” Wu Yue is Brother, the others are Brothers?

Looking at them, they don’t seem too old either!

Yan Hongni turned slightly, lowering her voice: “Brother Wu Yue, why are you with… her?”

“Is there anything wrong?”

“Brother Wu Yue, did you forget? She deliberately left us in the Wuyin Maze Array before, and tried to sow discord.” This was what Yan Hongni heard Meng Weihan say after she woke up.

Yan Hongni had talked to her before about some things regarding Chuzheng.

At that time, he just thought Yan Hongni heard rumors, and such experiences were quite normal.

Now that I think about it…

She seemed overly concerned about Chuzheng.

Wu Yue: “Miss Chen Yin is not obligated to take everyone away; it’s her freedom to choose whom she wants to take.”

Yan Hongni looked surprised at Wu Yue, seemingly not believing these were Wu Yue’s words.

“Brother Wu Yue, she…”

“Alright, let’s not talk about this now.” Wu Yue smiled: “It’s not safe here.”

Yan Hongni furrowed her willow eyebrows lightly, Wu Yue’s attitude… It felt a bit off. Could that woman have said something to him?

Yan Hongni had suspicions in her heart, pursed her lips, but she couldn’t continue speaking. After all, Wu Yue was right; this wasn’t the place to talk.

If she continued, it would only show her as lacking tact.

“Alright… alright.” A person beside suddenly laughed: “Let’s go, let’s go!!”

As he said this, he walked towards the shore, someone tried to stop him, but he shrugged them off and climbed onto the shore, disappearing into the Dark.

Chuzheng and Wu Yue both saw that the person left with a Spiritual Body.

After these people appeared, Chuzheng clearly noticed that more Spiritual Bodies had gathered around.

Especially around those few people who appeared later.

There were even Spiritual Bodies fighting as if for someone to…

Wu Yue, having been occupied by Yan Hongni, hadn’t warned them immediately and quickly said: “Everyone be careful, there are Spiritual Bodies here.”

Spiritual Bodies?

Everyone was startled, quickly opening their Third Eye and seeing the wavering Spiritual Bodies all around, chills ran down their spines.

“Why are there so many Spiritual Bodies?”

“Aren’t you guys here for the treasures? Choose a challenge, pass it, and you can pick treasures.” A Spiritual Body eagerly said: “Choose me, it’s easy to clear!”

“Nonsense! His is extremely hard, choose me, choose me!!”

“Choose me, I’ll guarantee you clear it.”

“I can too, plus there’s a gift, don’t miss the opportunity, choose me, you won’t be fooled!”

As the Spiritual Bodies began bickering amongst themselves, everyone else was left dumbfounded.

What’s happening?

Are these Spiritual Bodies soliciting clients?

–

Chuzheng coldly watched the group of Spiritual Bodies vying for clients; if they’re working so hard, there’s certainly something in it for them.

As for what they’re saying…

Do you really believe what a ghost says?

The Spiritual Bodies all feared Chuzheng, naturally, none dared come near, especially with the blue-clad girl clinging to the dead tree like an octopus; no one dared approach.

Wu Yue intended to stop them but remembered the Spiritual Body’s words and simply cautioned them to be careful.

Let them decide for themselves.

Initially finding it strange, others were cautious and didn’t move.

But soon, someone wavered; after all, their purpose was the rare treasures.

Failing to act now would mean missing out on the treasures.

Yan Hongni, standing next to Wu Yue, was safe from Spiritual Bodies as Wu Yue was near Chuzheng.

“Brother Wu Yue… why don’t they come here?” Yan Hongni curiously asked.

Wu Yue didn’t answer, casting his gaze to Chuzheng.

Following his gaze, Yan Hongni wondered, is it because of her?

Why?

Are the Spiritual Bodies afraid of her?

“Move aside.” Chuzheng instructed the blue-clad girl clinging to the tree.

“No, no, no…” The blue-clad girl shook her head: “I’ll tell you how to leave; just don’t dig up this tree. It’s already dead, let it go.”

Chuzheng narrowed her eyes: “I won’t.”

“You… how can you be so malicious!” The blue-clad girl puffed her little face into a ball with anger.

“Oh.” What’s the big deal about maliciousness?

You Spiritual Bodies… You have no right to call her malicious, right?

“Forget it… Anyway, it’s… useless.” Jing Po tried pleading with Chuzheng.

Jing Po couldn’t see Spiritual Bodies but could hear Chuzheng’s words.

“Little Brother is good, you’re bad!” The blue-clad girl tried hard to glare at Chuzheng.

Chuzheng: “…”

“Ah——”

A scream pierced the Black Night as a figure stumbled back from the Dark.

It was the first person who went off with a Spiritual Body earlier.

Rolling back to the riverbed, covered in blood, those who hadn’t left with a Spiritual Body swarmed over: “What happened?”

“These… these Spiritual Bodies…” The person was terrified, their voice trembling with fear: “They… they eat people!”

“What!”

“Oh dear brother, don’t speak nonsense, we don’t do such things!” A Spiritual Body approached, wearing a smile, but it was an indescribably bizarre smile.

All the Spiritual Bodies closed in simultaneously.

That eerie smile was visible on every Spiritual Body’s face.

–

Chuzheng pointed at the people and Spiritual Bodies about to clash: “I’m wicked?”

Who’s the wicked one here?

The blue-clad girl glanced over, muttering under her breath: “Can’t even keep a person, pathetic.”

Turning back, she tried to justify: “We’re not usually like this; we are really easygoing. Did we harm you before? No! It must be that person’s fault! Yes, it must be!”

Summarizing it — the wicked ones are definitely you!

Chuzheng: “…”

This one is a wonder! Oh, sorry, this isn’t a person.

As Chuzheng and the blue-clad girl were talking, the fight had already started.

The blue-clad girl had no intention of joining, still clinging to the withered tree.
