"What's so hard to understand? Haven't you heard of vicious dogs devouring their masters?!" Before Luo Jin could answer, Hu Da, who was beside Shuten-dōji, reacted the fastest, snorting sarcastically, "They probably couldn't handle those once high and mighty physicians of the Sakura Kingdom after they became ghosts, so they could only vent their anger on innocent other people!"

"How can you expect a coward like him, all bluster and no substance, to challenge those evil spirits of the Land of Cherry Blossoms?!"

It has to be said that Hu Da's words completely exposed Luo Jin, leaving him with nothing but his underwear. If he could maintain his composure before, now he has finally broken down completely.

All that could be heard was Luo Jin's angry roar, and his entire face instantly turned into a rotten orange peel, changing in a bizarre way.

It's said that people who are burned to death are never very attractive, and Luo Jin is no exception!

After he could no longer maintain his human form, the state he presented to everyone was somewhat like a burnt-out Wu Dalang, his short and stout figure resembling a charred tree stump.

"Ugh, so ugly!"

Song Mengmeng took a few steps back in disgust, and was about to say something when she heard faint thunder rumbling in the sky.

Before she could even finish her rant, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl struck down from the sky, directly hitting Luo Jin's already charred body.

Luo Jin opened his mouth, but before he could even scream, a series of thunderbolts continued to fall from the sky, mercilessly striking Luo Jin and the henchmen around him.

In an instant, all they saw were the evil spirits that had been high above them, mocking and targeting them, suddenly scattered like rats whose burrows had been disturbed. However, they could not escape the pursuit of the heavenly lightning. One by one, they were struck down and their souls were scattered right in front of everyone, leaving them with no possibility of committing any more evil!

This change happened so fast, it was over in the blink of an eye!

With the culprits brought to justice, the barrier that had trapped everyone naturally dissipated. The group stood amidst the ruins, looking at each other in bewilderment.

Hu Yue was already an expert at handling these kinds of things. Before anyone could react, she had already raised her hand and pinched a talisman in her hand. The moment she lit it, everyone's memories were instantly blurred and replaced. These young people who were just making a ruckus suddenly became like puppets under her control, turning into a group of obedient children who could only follow her orders.

Fortunately, the bus we took when we arrived was still there, and there were quite a few people here who could drive, so we managed to get everyone back to the guesthouse without any major incidents.

Hu Yue successfully replaced these people's memories for one night, so when they woke up the next morning, they didn't feel any different from before. They ate breakfast as usual, went out for a stroll as usual, and were in high spirits!

However, Bai Wei and Wang Wei encountered some problems.

Wang Wei is still asleep and hasn't woken up yet. No matter how we call him, he doesn't respond!

"The matter in Mingshan Ancient Town is not completely resolved yet. We've only dealt with the evil spirits at the hot spring resort, but the other issues concerning the Ming marriage in the town are still unresolved!"

Hu Yue's complexion still wasn't good.

Her main reason for coming here was the tourists who inexplicably committed suicide after leaving Mingshan Ancient Town. Initially, they thought it might be related to evil spirits in the hot spring resort, but now it seemed the problem was far more complex than they had imagined!

"Wang Wei's current situation is that his soul is trapped! I have already sent the Dream Eater to investigate his dream."

Faced with the sudden situation with Wang Wei, Song Mengmeng was not flustered at all, and calmly told Hu Yue about the response she had just made.

Hu Yue nodded, then thought for a moment and said to Song Mengmeng, "I'll make a call and ask the team about the results of their investigation into this matter."

She arrived in such a rush that she didn't investigate some things thoroughly.

It's also because Mingshan Ancient Town is so remote that there's limited information available. She was in a rush to get here, so she didn't do much research. Now that she has some free time, she can call back and catch up on the progress.

Hu Yue went out to make a phone call, leaving only Song Mengmeng, Bai Wei, and Wang Wei lying on the bed, who couldn't be woken up no matter what they did.

"Mengmeng, tell me, did I really go too far?!" Bai Wei stood by Wang Wei's bedside for a long time before speaking softly, breaking the silence in the room.

In fact, ever since Wang Wei started looking for her, all sorts of rumors have been circulating around her.

Those people didn't bother to find out much; they just relied on their own assumptions and added all sorts of speculations to Bai Wei. Especially after these two consecutive scandals, all sorts of rumors about her spread wildly online.

"When I met Wang Wei, I didn't actually know his identity. At that time, I really thought he was just an employee of Wang's Group."

At that time, I wasn't famous yet. That day, I accompanied a friend to the amusement park to celebrate his birthday. Because it was the weekend, I remember that there were a lot of people there. Not long after we went in, we got separated.

It was around that time that I met Wang Wei, who had also gotten separated from his companions.

Many of the things that happened afterward were beyond my expectations.

Wang Wei's mother and friends have approached me more than once, and they have all told me, openly or indirectly, that I am not good enough for Wang Wei. The distance between us cannot be simply summarized as a mismatch in social status.
