No one knew how much time had passed before the four fighting ghosts stopped. Looking at the male ghost nearby who was showering Qingchuan with attention, they said:
"That shameless bastard! He actually seduced our wife while we were fighting. How utterly disgraceful!"
"Exactly! Lin Ze is the most devious, cunning one of all!"

"Huh?"
"I have a feeling Master must know something.

"Understood."

This isn't something human intervention can resolve.
We should just watch and see how things unfold.]
Song Yaoyao: [That's what I thought too.]
And so, Song Yaoyao watched
