The next morning.
Luo Di had just crawled out of his Coffin Room.
A head coated in yellow wax was already hanging over the mouth of the coffin. It first examined Luo Di's arm, which had been repaired with a wax seal, then pressed itself closer to feel the temperature of his flesh.
"Your overall transformation into a Jiangshi is progressing smoothly, but your body temperature remains unusually high. No wonder Madam Linglong took a liking to you. Although she can directly arrange an 'apprentice' position for you, you still need to come with me to meet Old Master Jiang."
"Alright."
Still pretending to be timid and fearful, Luo Di followed Uncle Bo back to the central residence completely shrouded in pitch-black Yin Energy.
He knew very well that Old Master Jiang wished to see him because of possessiveness.
If Old Master Jiang found any issue with him, he could reject his apprentice status and turn him entirely into Old Master Jiang's temporary body.
Luo Di had already adjusted the passageway structure in his left arm, ready to retreat at any time.
Of course,
even if he was completely exposed and had to leave the Jiang Estate, he would still honor his agreement with Madam Linglong and help investigate who was causing trouble behind the scenes.
"Master, the newcomer Luo Yi has been brought."
Uncle Bo did not step inside the residence. After delivering Luo Di, he immediately withdrew.
A gust of Yin wind swept over, seemingly transforming into two enormous black, withered arms that shut the doors.
In an instant, Luo Di could no longer sense anything outside. There was only darkness and silence within the house. Even the passageway in his left arm was somewhat affected, though teleportation would not be a problem.
Drip. Drip. Something was falling.
