Of course, there's also the simplest method: just wait until dawn, and these things will naturally dissipate after the sun comes out.

However, being trapped in a maze of ghosts, the flow of time inside is likely to be different, and the people inside are panicked. The more fear they feel, the more energy they consume, making them prone to self-collapse and unable to hold on until the sun rises.

Zuan remembered that it was dark when he first entered the manor, but now that Qiu Honglei and the others were missing and their fates were unknown, there was no time to wait for the sun to rise.

He took out the Tai'a sword: "Queen Master, I am not good at formations. Can you help me figure out how to get out of this ghost wall?"

Mi Li didn't even show herself, and instead yawned as if to say, "Do you have to come to me for such trivial matters? Isn't your Primordial Qi supposed to be the best at eliminating evil spirits?"

Zu An said with a headache, "It's a pity that the ghost is now hiding, so I have nowhere to use my strength."

"Why do you follow the path others have given you and let them lead you by the nose? Can't you use force to overcome cleverness?" Mi Li said irritably.

Zuan's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the paths in the courtyard. He had followed these paths and unknowingly fallen into the maze...

"Thank you, Queen Master." He went straight to a wall, channeled his primordial energy, and punched through the wall, passing right through it.

Since we're not good at formations, let's just go all out.

"This child is teachable!" Mi Li muttered, then fell silent again.

Following the theoretical direction of the inner courtyard, Zu'an no longer followed the original roads, but instead violently dismantled everything along the way, creating a straight route towards the courtyard.

His primordial energy naturally restrained the power of evil spirits, and the walls he shattered could not be restored by the ghosts. In this way, he finally succeeded in entering the inner courtyard.

He had been wondering if any ghosts would come out to attack, but for some reason, there were no ghosts along the way, not even the paper figures from before.

The bride's room was not hard to find; it was undoubtedly the most elaborately and beautifully decorated—though now it was shrouded in those ghastly green lanterns, making it the most sinister.

He walked straight over, and when he reached the door, a thought suddenly struck him; he sensed a figure inside.

The door to the new house was ajar, not closed tightly, and you could peek inside through the gap.

A woman dressed in a bright red wedding gown is sitting in front of a dressing mirror, combing her hair. Judging from her back, she is clearly a slender woman, and her hair-combing technique is exceptionally elegant and ladylike. One can imagine that she must have been a well-educated and virtuous lady in her lifetime.

Zuan suddenly thought of the ghost bride he had seen in Yunzhong County, and thought that if she were here, she would definitely have a lot in common with the one inside.

As Zuan was sighing, the woman seemed to find it inconvenient to comb her hair at the back of her head, so she simply took her hair off, placed it on the table, and began to comb it carefully.

Zuan: "..."

Although he had been in the past for many years, he had been an ordinary person for even longer in his previous life, and seeing this scene made him so frightened that the hairs on his body stood on end.

However, he adjusted his mindset almost instantly, burst through the door, and reached out to grab the female ghost. He didn't want to give her any chance; he wanted to control her first.

But as soon as he rushed to the bride's side, a wave of water-like ripples appeared before his eyes, and everything disappeared.

Instead, he found himself in a bridal chamber filled with fragrance and joy. Zu An noticed that he was on a large bed, with double happiness characters and red brocade quilts, all indicating that this was the bridal chamber of a newlywed couple.

A sobbing sound came from below. Zuan stiffly looked down and saw a bride lying beneath him, her face streaked with tears.

Not far away, a groom was tied up on a table, staring angrily at them, struggling and making muffled noises.

Zuan: "???"

What the hell is going on?!
