Even at this hour, the call connected quickly.
"Hello! Xiao Jiang!"
My master's familiar voice rang out.
But he sounded irritated.
Looks like he'd been night fishing and hadn't caught anything. He was in a terrible mood.
Before I could speak, Uncle Yu beside me said,
"Get on a plane to South Entrance immediately. We found another killer!"
Uncle Yu had barely finished speaking when Master replied solemnly,
"Alright! I'll come right away."
Master answered decisively. This time, he didn't waste a single word, nor did he bicker with Uncle Yu.
And as soon as he spoke, he ended the call without the slightest hesitation.

"Alright, get some rest! I'll keep the Heavenly Keystone here."
Uncle Yu took out the Heavenly Keystone, which had talismans stuck to it.
Zhang Yuchen and I both nodded. We didn't rush to lie down and sleep, instead sitting cross-legged and regulating our breathing for a while.
Uncle Yu had just given us medicinal soup, so meditating now would help us recover more true qi.
As for the Three-Leaf Herb, we still had some on hand.
But this wasn't the time to take it. Master would be here tomorrow, so there was no need to rush to use it.
After each of us meditated for an hour, we simply treated our wounds, lay down, and went to sleep.
Worth mentioning, before going to sleep, Zhang Yuchen wrote in his Demon-Exorcising Diary for a while.
And whenever he wrote in it, he liked to recite the words as he wrote.
