"Mo Feng, send someone to keep an eye on Doctor Xu. Report any developments immediately. Remember, make sure to protect his safety." Mo Beichen frowned, recalling Doctor Xu's hesitant manner.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will make the arrangements immediately." Mo Feng accepted the order.

Mo Beichen glanced at him and Mo Yu and said calmly, "Don't call me Emperor here, it'll arouse suspicion."

"Yes, Master, we understand." Mo Feng and Mo Yu said in unison.

Mo Beichen suddenly spoke up, "Send the Dragon Guards; they should be happy to protect Doctor Xu."

"Yes." Mo Feng accepted the order and left.

"Mo Yu, go and make arrangements. We'll be going to the Ghost Market tomorrow night," Mo Beichen instructed Mo Yu. Although Mo Yu was surprised, he didn't ask any further questions.

The next evening.

Mo Beichen and Yun Qingluo came to the Ghost Market together.

The two of them, along with Mo Feng and Mo Yu, stood not far from the entrance of the Ghost Market.

"Ghost Market?" Yun Qingluo murmured softly.

Mo Beichen nodded and handed the mask and cloak to Yun Qingluo. "Well, there is an old gentleman in here who has done a lot of research on strange illnesses. Although he is unpredictable, none of the illnesses he has treated have gone wrong. People who know him call him the Ghost Immortal. Let's go find him. Maybe he can help."

Yun Qinglu put on her mask, and Mo Beichen helped her tie the sash of her cloak.

“I’d heard about it before, but the conditions for entering the Ghost Market are too strict. I was afraid Yunju would expose her identity, so I didn’t let her go in to investigate. Ah Chen, you’re amazing.” Yun Qingluo had also planned to visit the Ghost Market this time, but she didn’t expect Ah Chen to have already made preparations.

Mo Beichen coughed lightly, suppressing the upturn of his lips, and said in a low voice, "The First Building also has properties in the Ghost Market. We can go straight in. This mask represents the First Building. No one will make things difficult for you."

Yun Qingluo was startled. She hadn't expected that the First Tower's influence was spread all over the country. No wonder they knew so much about the affairs of their Divine Doctor Valley.

Xiao Yi interjected arrogantly, "Look at what the owner of the building has done, his businesses are flourishing everywhere. Look at what you, the valley master, have done, you're just trash."

Yun Qingluo was speechless with anger. "Xiao Yi, I advise you to speak properly."

Xiao Yi snorted coldly, "Hmph, that's the truth, okay? The Divine Doctor Valley has very little influence in the Southern Frontier, and in the Ghost Market, there's not even a single one. Besides, you've heard people say that no one in the Ghost Market dares to make things difficult for the people from the First Tower. So I guess your man is doing quite well in the Ghost Market. Maybe you two will actually make some gains."

Yun Qingluo knew that Xiao Yi was telling the truth. Yun Ju had searched the whole area but hadn't found any reliable information. This ghost market was the only place they hadn't set foot in. Perhaps, there really was something they needed inside.

"Ah Chen, shall we go in for a stroll?" Yun Qingluo asked softly when she saw that Mo Beichen had already put on his mask and cloak.

Mo Beichen nodded and walked ahead, clearing the way for Yun Qingluo. Yun Qingluo looked at the tall figure in front of her and smiled slightly.

She quickened her pace to catch up with Mo Beichen, and as she walked forward, she spoke without looking to the side, "Achen, I'm here to stand beside you and protect you, not to be sheltered by you."

Mo Beichen stiffened upon hearing Yun Qingluo's words, but quickly regained his composure, though his heart was in turmoil.

I glanced at her sideways and saw only her silver fox mask, which was quite captivating from the side.

Mo Beichen regretted picking such a style for her; look at all those eager gazes around them.

If he hadn't been there, he probably would have rushed over already. Just thinking about that scene sent chills down Mo Beichen's spine.

Yun Qingluo suddenly felt a bit cold. Strange, why is it so cold? As soon as she finished speaking, she looked up and saw her surroundings clearly.

Why are they staring at me?

Yun Qingluo turned to ask Mo Beichen, only to see that Mo Beichen's eyes were gloomy and cold. She looked around at the people around her, most of whom were men.

Oh, she seems to understand something. Could it be that he's jealous?

Yun Qingluo moved closer to Mo Beichen and whispered in his ear, "Achen, are you jealous?"

Mo Beichen looked at Yun Qingluo, his voice tinged with grievance, "I want to gouge out their eyes and soak them in wine."

Yun Qingluo: "..."

There's really no need for that.

Xiao Yi: "Very good, the Mo Ye who calmly destroyed the Tianlang Kingdom is back."

Yun Qingluo, "Master Mo?"

Xiao Yi suddenly became very excited, "Old Mo, I want to eat fish."

Yun Qingluo said, "What does this mean? Besides, can you even eat fish?"

Xiao Yi said with a hint of disdain, "Oh dear, I forgot. This is a product of the new era. You don't seem to understand. Never mind, I'll explain it to you another day."

Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow. "Xiao Yi, do you mean you can still connect to the modern world?"

Xiao Yi denied it, "That won't work, but it seems I can automatically upgrade and keep up with the times."

Yun Qingluo asked, "So, why can't I do it?"

Xiao Yi said dejectedly, "Sigh, what can you do if you're not a machine?"

Yun Qingluo: ...Thank you.

"Luo Luo, what are you thinking about?" Mo Beichen asked, shaking Yun Qingluo's hand as she stared into a daze.

"Ah Chen, where is that gentleman you mentioned? I'm so tired from walking." Yun Qingluo snapped out of her reverie, realizing that she couldn't persuade him anyway, so she changed the subject.

When Mo Beichen heard Yun Qingluo say she was tired, he calmed his breathing, took two quick steps forward, and then half-squatted on the ground.

"Ah Chen, what are you doing?" Yun Qingluo asked in surprise when she saw Mo Beichen blocking her way.

Do you need to squat to find your way in the ghost market?

Mo Beichen glanced back at her and, seeing her shifty eyes, knew she had misunderstood. He sighed and said gently, "Luo Luo, get on. I'll carry you. It's still quite a distance."

Yun Qingluo exclaimed slightly, "There's still some distance? This place is quite big. If I didn't have something very important to do, I would definitely stay here for a while and enjoy the natural scenery."

Xiao Yi is a pro at pouring cold water on things. When she heard that Yun Qingluo wanted to stay here a little longer, she sneered, "Stop dreaming. If you really want to daydream, you can pray that you get better soon."

Yun Qingluo snorted softly, ignoring Xiao Yi, and walked up to Mo Beichen, pulling him up. "I want to walk around with you, just to digest our food, and then we can catch up on some sleep when we get back."

After saying that, seeing that Mo Beichen was about to say something, she quickly added, "Okay, let's hurry up and leave. This place looks too eerie. Let's finish asking our questions as soon as possible so we can leave sooner."

Seeing that Yun Qingluo had already walked ahead, Mo Beichen could only shake his head helplessly and follow her.
