Suddenly, moonlight shone into the dilapidated temple, and the little girl saw hope. But when the young Taoist priest walked in, he was a stranger, unlike the fierce-looking bandits.

Qin Luo looked at the little girl who was freezing to death in the corner. He reached out his hand, and a wisp of fire lit up between his fingers. He said gently, "Don't be afraid. I will take you away from here."

The little girl looked at Qin Luo and felt warmth, but in an instant, the flame was blown away by the wind and snow, the young Taoist disappeared, and the dilapidated temple was then shrouded in darkness.

Everything became quiet.

Decades later, in a dilapidated temple, the little ghost girl looked at the familiar figure before her and was certain that Qin Luo was the young Taoist priest who had given her warmth on that snowy night.

Qin Luo's consciousness returned to his sea of ​​consciousness, and he barely managed to sit cross-legged in front of the little female ghost. "Her mother is at the bottom of the cliff nearby. Please go and find her."

Chu Peiran was at a loss, but Gui Chen didn't think much of it and turned to leave the dilapidated temple.

"Wait for me."

Chu Peiran then left.

Qin Luo looked at the bewildered little ghost girl in front of him, shook his head and sighed softly, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help you."

When his consciousness entered the river of time, Qin Luo thought he could change their fate, but despite his best efforts, nothing changed, and he almost didn't make it back.

The little ghost girl nodded weakly, seemingly understanding what Qin Luo said, her eyes filled with gratitude.

Before long, Gui Chen and Chu Peiran found the young woman's ghost at the foot of the cliff and brought her back to the mountain god temple.

"Yuanyuan!"

"Mother!"

They reunited.

The dilapidated temple became lively.

Qin Luo and Chu Peiran had smiles on their faces.

"Thank you, Immortal Master!"

The young woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Thank you, big brother."

"You're welcome!"

Gui Chen sat cross-legged on the ground chanting sutras for salvation. The little female ghost's obsession disappeared, and she no longer resisted. She waved to Qin Luo, "Big brother, I'll be waiting for you in the underworld."

Chu Peiran burst out laughing.

Qin Luo nodded with a smile.

May you rest in peace!

The little ghost girl and her mother vanished in a streak of light.

Watching them disappear, Chu Peiran sat down on the ground and asked, "Brother Dao, where are you planning to go?"

Qin Luo replied with a smile, "I plan to go to Jiangling City. I heard that the Azure Emperor's Secret Realm has opened, and I want to go and take a look."

“Perfect timing. I’m also planning to go to Jiangling City. I expect there will be many talented individuals there. I’d like to join in the fun. I wonder what Master Guichen’s plans are?” Chu Peiran asked Guichen.

Gui Chen touched his bald head with a simple and honest smile. "This humble monk has no goal; I've just followed my instincts."

"Why don't we all go together? It'll be more fun with the three of us."

"OK."

Gui Chen nodded.

Chu Peiran originally wanted to chat with Qin Luo, but seeing that he had closed his eyes to rest, he didn't disturb him. Gui Chen was also meditating, so Chu Peiran could only lie down on the dry grass to rest.

late at night.

Qin Luo suddenly opened his eyes.

Those eyes were filled with a chaotic light.

Chu Peiran suddenly opened his eyes and sat up. He had just had a terrifying feeling of falling into an abyss, as if he had been choked. He looked at Qin Luo and Gui Chen, but did not notice anything unusual. The dilapidated temple was quiet.

Is it just my imagination?

Chu Peiran lay down again.

Gui Chen's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
