Li Wenhe stared intently at Ming Zhuo for two seconds before asking, "Have you got things sorted out on your end?"

He should have known better; Mingzhuo would be perfectly fine.

He Wangyao: "Of course! Who is my boss? He's the number one bug in the Xuanmen, the boss among bosses!"

And how clever I am! I've only known her for a short time, but I've already clung to Mingzhuo's coattails and become her follower. It's clear that I not only have good judgment, but also ability!

Mingzhuo thought for a moment, "It should be sorted out by now, right?"

She wasn't entirely sure, after all, Cheng Jingru's crying had just caused several people to look at her strangely, probably because they were quite resentful.

It's okay if you're not convinced; a fight will tell you whether you're convinced or not.

Mingzhuo raised his voice: "Anyone who is still dissatisfied with me, or who doubts me, can stand up and fight me right now."

A gust of wind blew by, and no one dared to answer.

Mingzhuo looked at the few people who had just had a problem with her, her eyes filled with encouragement and expectation, as if to say, "Come on, come and teach me a lesson!"

Those people were so frightened that they wanted to bury their heads in their chests and didn't dare to look up at all.

Are you kidding me? If even the four eminent monks and the old man with the sword couldn't handle him, how could they possibly handle him? Wouldn't that be like sending themselves to their deaths?

Only a fool would stand up at this time.

Mingzhuo turned his gaze to Cheng Jingru.

Cheng Jingru said with red eyes, "Although I can't beat you, I'm willing to give it a try."

Her condition was clearly off; she seemed determined to fight Mingzhuo to the death, even if it meant throwing an egg against a rock.

There was a strange sense of tragic grandeur about it.

Li Wenhe sneered: "Then why don't you explain what's going on with Liu Manhua?"

Gu Xu looked in the bronze mirror, and a figure gradually appeared in front of him.

Everyone was startled. They were all experts in the Xuanmen sect, yet they hadn't noticed the female ghost following them.

Upon seeing the female ghost, someone asked in confusion, "Who is this? Why doesn't she have a face?"

The female ghost stood before the crowd, her face devoid of features, as if she had forgotten what features she possessed.

She had been looking dazed, but upon hearing that person's words, she seemed to have been suddenly stimulated and began frantically scratching her face.

"Yes, where's my face? Where did my face go? Why don't I have a face? Who am I? Who am I?"

Almost in the blink of an eye, she scratched her entire face until the flesh was torn open, a horrifying sight.

"This is Liu Manhua? Are you kidding me? Wasn't Aunt Liu already escorted away?" someone said.

"Yes, I saw her leave with my own eyes."

"Where did this female ghost come from? Something seems wrong; she looks like she's about to turn evil. Maybe we should perform a ritual to help her pass on."

Li Wenhe's expression changed slightly. She was still conscious when he called her name before, but he didn't expect her condition to deteriorate so quickly and become increasingly frantic.

How can I confront Cheng Jingru like this?

The female ghost suddenly rushed in front of Cheng Jiangkai, who screamed in fright, "Help!"

Seeing that the female ghost was about to harm ordinary people, several talismans were already being thrown at her.

But soon, a faint light flashed across the female ghost's body, actually blocking the exorcism talismans.

It was the soul-protecting talisman that Gu Xu had stuck on her that had taken effect.

Mingzhuo: "She's not dead yet, her lifespan hasn't ended, and you're already in a hurry to perform rituals for her. Aren't you afraid of creating bad karma and going to jail?"

The crowd gasped in shock. Not dead? How could that be? The yin energy was so strong; he was clearly dead!

"Looks like I'm not late." Someone strolled over in the darkness, accompanied by the faint sound of bells.

Everyone felt that eerie and terrifying aura, and their nerves instantly tensed up, their scalps tingling. Why was he here again?

Shen Ruodi seemed oblivious to the tense atmosphere, glanced at Ming Zhuo from afar, and then tossed someone over.

"Confess."

As he was speaking, the next second, a bell rang, and the person on the ground clutched their head in pain and screamed.

"What do you want to do?" Shen Boyuan asked warily.

At this moment, everyone saw the person clearly. Wasn't that Liu Manhua?

Liu Manhua's shrill screams echoed through the night sky, and soon her body went limp, with a soul floating above her body.

His soul suddenly left his body, and he seemed somewhat disoriented. Instinctively, he took a few steps towards Cheng Jingru, crying, "Jingru, save me..."

She suddenly stopped in her tracks, only then realizing that she was in a spirit state.

Had she died again? She was going crazy!

"Jingru, what exactly is going on? Didn't you say it was foolproof? Didn't you say that Liu Manhua and I are sisters, that our souls and bodies are highly compatible, and that there wouldn't be any problems?"

She tried desperately to squeeze into that body, but it was all in vain.

That body no longer accepted her entry.

Cheng Jingru's face turned deathly pale, and she was completely unable to answer her question.

Shen Boyuan frowned: "Jingru, what exactly happened?"

Everyone looked at Cheng Jingru with surprise, expecting her to explain or say something.

Cheng Jingru didn't explain. Instead, she beckoned with her little finger, and a strand of white silk suddenly shot out from her hand. She bound the struggling soul and tried to force it into the body.

The soul, which was eager to enter that body, screamed shrilly as if it had touched hot oil, desperately trying to leave the body.

Cheng Jingru gritted her teeth, tears streaming down her face, "Just bear with it."

But instead of letting go, it tightened the threads even faster.

It was like an inhuman torture; the souls screamed even more shrilly, sending chills down one's spine.

Shen Boyuan raised his sword to slash at the silk threads, but found it was useless; he couldn't cut them at all.
