Lou Yunxiao froze.

For a moment, he had no idea how to answer that question.

He hoped Mingxin was A Ke.

But if he really was A Ke, why hadn't he revealed himself?

And A Ke's corpse was clearly in his possession. How could he have come back to life?

What about all the suffering A Ke had endured in the Underground Palace, and the eyes he had gouged out for him?

And how had he spent those three months he had been missing?

Lou Yunxiao couldn't make sense of it.

But it was precisely that uncertainty that filled him with fear.

Wugou lowered his eyes and turned away again. "Benefactor Lou, everything rests with you. Finding the answer yourself is far better than asking others."

After that, neither of them spoke again, not even when night fell and everyone returned.

"When we went to the woods outside Northern Tour City a few days ago, we didn't see any ghost soul grass. But when we went again today, we found so much growing beneath the tree roots." Zeng Xi showed everyone the ghost soul grass in her basket.

"Our senior brothers said the blood of those living dead could also be used to refine pills. I wonder what effects those pills would have." Zhang Chen picked up a stalk of ghost soul grass and frowned. "For this much ghost soul grass to grow in just a few days... it's rather strange."

Ghost soul grass was one of the ingredients used to refine Demon-Dissipating Pills.

Normally, it should have grown in the warm south.

Yet now it had appeared in the northern lands just as the weather was turning cold.

It was hard not to be suspicious.

"We found traces of magic arrays in the residences attacked by demons."
