At night, around 9 PM (the beginning of the Hai hour).

Mo Xuan turned his head and looked at Li Yunjing, who was resting with his eyes closed beside him.

"Senior brother, do you think we can trust her?"

After speaking, Mo Xuan turned his head to look at Luo Wan, who was curled up in the open space in front of him, looking nervous.

Mo Xuan was skeptical of Luo Wan's words.

Perhaps she's just a swindler, a bold rogue Rogue Cultivator.

Li Yunjing opened his eyes. "We're desperate, so we can't miss out on this opportunity. We finally got some information about Kuang Qihua, how can we let it slip by?"

I don't think she's the kind of person who would dare to do something reckless.

Upon hearing this, Mo Xuan fell silent.

Together with Li Yunjing, they wait for the appearance of Kuang Qihua's ghost.

Time passed little by little.

From the beginning of Hai (9-11 PM) to the beginning of Chou (1-3 AM), a full two hours passed, and nothing happened.

Mo Xuan was getting a little impatient.

"Senior brother, shall we wait any longer?" Mo Xuan asked Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing replied calmly, "Wait."

Upon hearing this, Mo Xuan sighed.

Calculating the time, it should be about two more hours.

It should be dawn soon.

According to Luo Wan,

During the daytime, Kuang Qihua's ghost will not appear.

Then, it will be night again before Kuang Qihua's ghost continues to appear.

This is assuming it's true.

Mo Xuan's eyes were already filled with dissatisfaction towards Luo Wan.

I suspect she's lying.

Perhaps nothing will happen for a while.

When daylight came, Luo Wan would find an excuse to make them continue waiting.

Afterwards, Luo Wan would find another excuse to ask them for some Spirit Stone, elixirs, or the like.

It was said to be in preparation for the appearance of Kuang Qihua's ghost.

Mo Xuan had seen this kind of plot countless times in storybooks when he was a child.

Looking at Luo Wan, Mo Xuan made a decision in his heart.

If what he thinks is true, he will definitely persuade his senior brother to expel this swindler from the Luozhen Sect.

Suddenly, a cool breeze swept by.

Suddenly, a dark figure appeared in front of Luo Wan.

"Ah!"

Luo Wan emitted a sharp, explosive sound.

Li Yunjing reacted quickly; the moment the dark figure appeared, he darted out like a rabbit.

Mo Xuan was still in shock until Li Yunjing was almost in front of Luo Wan before he finally reacted.

They immediately rushed out to help Li Yunjing.

After Li Yunjing arrived in front of Luo Wan,

I looked at the dark figure.

The shadowy figure bled from all seven orifices, its death a gruesome sight.

However, his expression was blank, and his eyes were lifeless.

"Is he the ghost of Kuang Qihua?" Li Yunjing asked.

Luo Wan nodded frantically, backing away.

"Kuang Qihua, this is Sect Leader Li of the Luozhen Sect. Because of your death, the Luozhen Sect has also been implicated."

If you say you were wrongfully killed, tell us what your grievances were, and Sect Leader Li might help you!

Luo Wan shouted at Kuang Qihua's ghost.

Kuang Qihua's ghost stood frozen in place.

Gradually, a hint of emotion appeared on that blank face.

His vision gradually cleared.

After a while, Kuang Qihua's ghost trembled.

"Sect Leader Li, Sect Leader Li, you must seek justice for me!"

Kuang Qihua's ghost suddenly knelt down, and with a sob in his voice, kowtowed to Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing said expressionlessly:

"Tell me first, who killed you?"

Your death was attributed to the Luozhen Sect.

I don't think it was Luozhen Sect that killed you.

Kuang Qihua raised his head. "It's not the Luozhen Sect, it's the Great Compassionate Holy Venerable Who Delivers from Suffering and Hardship."

Upon hearing this, Mo Xuan, who had arrived late, exclaimed in surprise.

"That evil god!?"

Li Yunjing looked at Mo Xuan, signaling him not to make a fuss.

He then turned to look at Kuang Qihua's ghost.

How can you be sure it's Him?

A look of terror appeared in Kuang Qihua's eyes.

"I saw Him with my own eyes, and around Him was a circle of devout believers kneeling in worship."

These believers were all whispering His name...

As he spoke, Kuang Qihua's demeanor began to change.

His terrified expression gradually calmed down.

Then, as if he had seen something, his expression became respectful and devout.

They were even chanting softly the Holy Venerable Who Delivers from Suffering and Hardship.

Upon seeing this, Li Yunjing immediately unleashed his Law Power and shouted, "Wake up!"

The voice was as loud as a bell, and in an instant, Kuang Qihua's eyes regained their clarity.

"He wants to convert to my faith!" Kuang Qihua became fearful again.

Li Yunjing looked at Kuang Qihua and asked in a deep voice:

Why would He target you? Just to convert to your faith?

Kuang Qihua shook his head. "I don't know either, but I saw familiar faces among that group of believers."

Zhong Lan, the head of the Clear Wind Pavilion and an elder of the Clear Wind Sect.

Li Yunjing's eyes lit up. Was it really Zhong Lan?

But before Li Yunjing could get any information, he didn't get a chance to ask.

Suddenly, Kuang Qihua's ghost spontaneously combusted.

The eerie green flames instantly engulfed Kuang Qihua.

After several screams, Kuang Qihua's ghost vanished from the spot, completely burned to ashes.

Li Yunjing's expression darkened.

The incident happened so suddenly that he didn't have time to react.

Even if you realize it, it's probably too late.

That eerie green flame was the Soul-Devouring Flame, specifically designed to target spirits and ghosts.

Once contaminated, it can instantly burn away even the most powerful spirits and ghosts.

"Was it Him who did it?" Li Yunjing wondered to himself.

If it really was that evil god who did it.

That evil god is incredibly audacious.

Whenever He takes action, He will leave a trace.

Li Yunjing only needs to report to the Immortal Alliance.

The Immortal Alliance will send someone to investigate immediately.

Following these clues, we can find the lair of this evil god and take him down in one fell swoop.

Destroying the lair of an evil god and slaying the evil god is Major Merit.

The Immortal Alliance seems to follow the path of accumulating merit.

The Immortal Alliance would never stand idly by when something could bring such Major Merit.

Regardless, Li Yunjing planned to go to the Immortal Alliance.

He has connections and powerful backers, yet he insists on acting alone.

That's not heroism, that's stupidity.

Li Yunjing is not stupid; he knows how to make good use of his own advantages.

At this moment, Li Yunjing discovered a Jade Slip, about the size of a little finger, lying on the ground where Kuang Qihua's ghost had been burned.

Upon picking it up, I realized it was a Daoist method to aid in cultivation.

It is called the Soul-Guiding Nine Heavens Method.

After practicing this method, one's soul can leave the body, as if ascending to the heavens, and travel to the outer starry sky to absorb its essence.

Using the soul as a hub, these essences are then integrated into the spiritual body.

Li Yunjing read it from beginning to end.

This Daoist technique is not bad, although it is only a third-grade Daoist technique.

However, it is incredibly exquisite and profound in content.

After practicing, the cultivation speed can be accelerated.

Furthermore, it allows one to accumulate spiritual energy in advance, thus increasing the success rate of a cultivator breaking through to the Golden Core.

Moreover, it is also beneficial to the spirit and soul.

The reason why Kuang Qihua was able to maintain his spirit was that

It was because he practiced this Daoist method.

It can ensure that the spirit of a cultivator remains intact for ten days after death.

This is just the beginning.

If one cultivates immortality to perfection...

Even if the physical body is gone, the soul will live on forever.

Furthermore, he followed the path of a ghost immortal, proving his Dao through his divine soul.

Li Yunjing felt that this was somewhat exaggerated.

Regardless, this Daoist practice can be placed in the library for disciples of the Luozhen Sect to cultivate.

After putting away the Jade Slip, Mo Xuan walked over.

"Senior brother, what should we do?" Mo Xuan asked.

He also heard what Kuang Qihua said.

The Zhong Lan that Kuang Qihua saw should be the mastermind behind it all.

Mo Xuan was also aware of the grudges between the Luozhen Treasure Pavilion and Clear Wind Pavilion.

Since Zhong Lan worships the Great Compassionate Holy Venerable Who Delivers from Suffering and Hardship,

If it weren't for her doing, Mo Xuan would never have imagined that there was anyone else involved.

"Don't rush, let's wait and see the show," Li Yunjing said.

Looking at Luo Wan beside him, Li Yunjing smiled:

"You did a good job; you've been a great help to the Luozhen Sect this time."

"I dare not take credit," Luo Wan quickly shook her head.

Seeing the faint smile on Li Yunjing's face, Luo Wan felt a sudden tightness in her heart for some reason.

She heard something incredible.

Am I going to be murdered to silence me?!
