Therefore, Dongfang Mian specially secured an opportunity for Mu Bai to become a disciple at the baby's apprenticeship ceremony, and the Mu family head and his wife were extremely grateful to Dongfang Mian.
After things settled down between the Shi and Mu families, Dongfang Mian remembered the artifact fragments and summoned the Mu family head and the Shi family elder to inquire about them. However, both of them shook their heads, saying they had never seen anything like it.
On the contrary, the baby who was playing with Mu Bai seemed to remember something after hearing what Dongfang Mian said. He ran out excitedly and quickly returned, holding a short sword with a black crystal embedded in it.
"Mommy, look!" the baby said, as if seeking praise.
After examining it carefully, Dongfang Mian confirmed that it was indeed a fragment of a divine artifact and exclaimed in surprise, "My God, baby, where did you find this?"
“I received the clan head’s inheritance a few days ago in the Shi family’s ancestral tomb. It contains everything about the Shi family, including the ancestral tomb. This short sword is placed in a room in the ancestral tomb. There is a row of crystal coffins in the room. I almost couldn’t remember which one it was in,” Bao Bao said casually.
Dongfang Mian was secretly surprised. The room that Bao Bao mentioned should be the one they didn't dare to enter back then because of Ahua's premonition. She never expected that she was so close to the artifact fragments back then.
A few days later, Dongfang Mian gathered everyone and told them that she was leaving. Looking at her baby who was reluctant to part with her, Dongfang Mian patted his head and said, "Baby, be good. Mommy will come to pick you up after I finish my business. Be a good boy and cultivate here. Listen to what Patriarch Mu said. If there are any bad guys you can't beat, go to your master and let your master deal with them, understand?"
The baby nodded obediently. The head of the Mu family was speechless. Does the Lord know that you are using him as a henchman?
Dongfang Mian handed the poisonous mother she obtained in the poisonous land to Bao Bao, telling him to refine it with peace of mind. "Don't worry, Mom will try to catch more poisonous mothers for you in the Ghost Realm this time. Take them with you on the way back."
Upon hearing this, Mu Bai felt a wave of nausea rise in her throat. Looking at the baby's delicate, fair face, who could have guessed that the baby actually liked this?
After a brief farewell, Dongfang Mian and the others stepped onto the teleportation array leading to the Ghost Realm.
Upon exiting the teleportation array of the Ghost Realm, a desolate scene came into view. A gust of wind swept by, and instantly, a cacophony of ghostly wails and howls filled the air.
"Ahua is scared," Ahua said, shrinking into herself in Dongfang Mian's arms.
Aju tightened her grip on Dongfang Mian's shoulder. Dongfang Mian comforted her, saying, "Don't be afraid. The Ghost Realm is only like this because it's sparsely populated and desolate. Actually, it's just a normal large domain. The Ghost Realm is mainly inhabited by ghosts and ghost cultivators. Ghosts are souls that couldn't reincarnate for some reason, and ghost cultivators are cultivators who use, refine, or control these souls. They're not considered orthodox cultivators, so you rarely see anyone in the Ghost Realm. Now that I've explained it, do you understand? Are you not afraid anymore?" Dongfang Mian said.
Ah Ju would never admit that her heart had been trembling just now. She said arrogantly, "I'm not afraid at all. Whether he's a ghost or a ghost cultivator, I'll fight one if one comes, and two if two come."
As they were talking, a black shadow quickly approached them from not far away. Aju was so startled that she almost fell off Dongfang Mian's shoulder. She quickly hid her head in her hair and whispered in a trembling voice, "A-Mian, you, you, quickly take a look, is this thing a ghost or a ghost cultivator?"
