Zou Mubai looked back at Xu Chong, said nothing, and walked out of the room.

Ying Qi would not possess this person for no reason. Perhaps he has some secrets that are different from ordinary people.

The next day, He Ronger and Xu Chong both woke up, but they had forgotten what happened in the forbidden area.

Zou Mubai did not mention it again, just thinking about investigating it slowly in the future.

For the next half month, He Ronger stayed at the main peak. During the day, he studied alchemy with several elders, and at night, he went back to meditate and practice.

One night, Zou Mubai heard some noise outside the yard and went out to check, only to find that the light in He Ronger's room was still on.

He paid careful attention to it in the following days, and did so every night.

After a long time, Zou Mubai finally discovered something was wrong.

The next day, Zou Mubai went straight to He Rong'er and asked, "Rong'er, how long have you not rested?"

"Ah?" He Rong'er was stunned: "I am in good spirits every day and don't need to rest."

"Nonsense!" Zou Mubai's face suddenly turned dark.

Although cultivators can stay energetic during their practice, they cannot stand not sleeping all the time. Over time, their mental strength will be damaged.

"Stop it and go back to your room to sleep!" Zou Mubai ordered.

"Uncle Zou, no need. I'm not sleepy. I still have some things to do." He Ronger was hesitant and said guiltily while looking at the herbs on the table.

At this moment, Xu Chong ran in, and before he could even stand still, he pulled He Rong'er and said, "Rong girl, hurry up, come with me to a place."

"No!" He Ronger refused directly.

"Hey, listen to me and come with me. I promise you'll have a good sleep when you come back."

He Ronger and Zou Mubai looked up at him at the same time, confusion and surprise flashing in their eyes.

"How do you know I didn't sleep?" He Ronger asked.

Xu Chong was stunned, and looked at a place behind He Ronger. Fear flashed in his eyes, but he quickly retracted his gaze: "Oh, I just know, will you come with me?"

"No, I haven't finished my work yet. If you are free, go find someone else to play with." He Ronger didn't want others to know her secret.

At this time, Zou Mubai also noticed that something was wrong with Xu Chong, and called him out: "Xu Chong, come with me."

Xu Chong didn't dare to refute. He looked at He Ronger who was busy with her work with her head down and somewhere behind her, and could only follow her out.

The two came to the corner of the yard. Zou Mubai slowly turned around, looked at Xu Chong and asked, "Is there anything unusual around Rong'er?"

He didn't mean this as a question.

The last time at the competition arena, he noticed that something was wrong with Xu Chong. Just now, he looked towards He Ronger again with fear in his eyes.

If something happens once it is a coincidence, but if it happens many times it is not.

Xu Chong didn't expect that Zou Mubai could see the clues. He looked around with a constipated look on his face, then approached Zou Mubai and whispered, "Did you also find something wrong? Can you see him too?"

Zou Mubai frowned: "He? Who is he?"

"It's the male ghost next to Rong girl."

"What did you say?"

"Ah? You...you can't see?" Xu Chong quickly covered his mouth, with fear on his face.

"Tell me clearly, what is next to He Rong'er? Who is the male ghost you mentioned? Why is he following Rong'er?"

Zou Mubai's voice was deep and cold, and every word he said was like a heavy hammer hitting Xu Chong's heart, scaring him so much that he immediately gave up the idea of ​​hiding something.

"Well, I... I don't know who he is. From the first time I saw Rong girl, I found that he was always following her. But I can feel that he has no ill will towards Rong girl."

"No ill intentions? You made Ronger afraid to sleep for several days. You also call this no ill intentions?"

Zou Mubai immediately guessed the reason why He Ronger was afraid to fall asleep, and asked back with a sullen face.

Xu Chong was speechless when asked. He also guessed the reason, so he had been busy looking for a place where ghosts could not go in the past few days so that Rong Yatou could sleep peacefully.

"Describe to me what that man looks like." Zou Mubai said after a while.

"He is wearing a long white gown, with his hair tied up with a wooden hairpin. His facial features are similar to those of Rong Yatou. I guess he should be Rong Yatou's relative."

Xu Chong said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, the first person that popped into Zou Mubai’s mind was He Tianzong, who had died not long ago.

His brows turned cold and he turned and walked towards the room where He Ronger was.

He wanted to see, why was He Tianzong still pestering He Ronger even though he was dead?

Xu Chong saw Zou Mubai enter the house angrily and hurriedly followed him.

As soon as Zou Mubai entered the room, he went straight to He Ronger. He looked around the room with his eyes. At the same time, his upper and lower lips moved slightly, as if he was mumbling something.

Not long after, He Tianzong, who was originally standing next to He Ronger, suddenly felt that his body was a little unstable, as if he was sucked by a strong suction force and moved closer to Zou Mubai.

He looked over in confusion, only to see that Zou Mubai was holding a small gourd with the lid opened in his hand, and at this moment there was a very strong force pulling him from the gourd.

"No, what are you going to do?" He Tianzong shouted loudly, but no one could answer him.

Not long after, He Tianzong's soul was completely sucked into the gourd.

All he did took only a moment, so He Ronger, who was studying the herbs, didn't notice it.

Xu Chong was watching this scene from the side, and he was extremely excited. He came to Zou Mubai and whispered, "Wow, Brother Zou, you are so amazing. What kind of magic weapon is this? It can even collect souls!"

Feeling the weight of the gourd in his hand, Zou Mubai curled his lips slightly and quickly closed the lid. He did not look at Xu Chong. After doing this, he ordered He Ronger beside him in a cold voice: "Ronger, you must go back and rest, immediately!"

He Ronger shook her head helplessly. Just as she was about to raise her head to refuse, she felt a pain on the back of her neck. She lost all her strength and fainted.

After Zou Mubai carried the person to the room and settled him on the bed, he asked Xu Chong to help watch over him while he took the gourd and left Qingling Sect.

Zou Mubai soon arrived at the foot of a cliff. After making sure that there was no one else around, he took out a yellow talisman from his arms and muttered something to himself.

Not long after, the sunny and clear sky suddenly became much darker.

The sunlight was blocked by thick clouds and the whole sky darkened.

The yellow talisman in Zou Mubai's hand suddenly burned, and a ten-meter square black area appeared where he had just stood. He took off the lid of the gourd and tilted it over there. A white figure appeared out of thin air and almost fell to the ground.

"He Tianzong, it's you!"
