Fortunately, Wu Dayi and the others were by Zhang Xiaofan's side, and Luo Yunji was there too. Only then had Tian Buyi reluctantly decided to let Zhang Xiaofan continue working for the Ghost King Sect.
And during this time, something had happened.
During a massacre, Zhang Xiaofan had nearly fallen into demonic cultivation. Fortunately, Luo Yunji had arrived in time to steady his heart. Puzhi and Daoyan had appeared at the same time to "subdue the demon," allowing him to make it through safely.
The brothers hadn't told Tian Buyi about it, afraid he would worry. Since Zhang Xiaofan couldn't be made to stop, there was no point in telling him; it would only add to Tian Buyi's troubles. For that reason, Wu Dayi and He Dazhi would also occasionally step in for Zhang Xiaofan.
This had brought back a judgment Poison God had once made about the group, which was now being repeated among the cultivators.
A storm of blood and gore, the Poison Wood Vine. The Ghost Umbrella's eerie wail, lamenting Heaven's fate!
But Du Bishu, the Poison Wood Vine, was now deep in the Western Dead Marsh, diligently cultivating spirit plants, while Luo Yunji, the Ghost Umbrella, had been tossed into the Imperial City by Tian Buyi and trapped in that bustling metropolis.

"Honestly! It's all that child Xiao Liu's fault! Now you've all made me sound old! Remember, when there are outsiders around, you absolutely mustn't call me that, or I won't answer!" Xiaobai glared at Zhang Xiaofan and warned him.
"Yes, Auntie Bai!" Zhang Xiaofan replied
