Chu Lingxiao ignored the accusing voice and slowly stretched out his arm, slightly bending his fingers and mobilizing the spiritual power in his body.
Under his control, the spiritual power flowed slowly like a lively stream, gradually condensing into a faint flame.
The flame looks weak, but it exudes a unique sense of solidity, as if it was compressed from the purest power.
Although the dancing flames were not dazzling, they faintly revealed a mysterious aura, as if they could really burn the soul.
Chu Lingxiao looked indifferent as he gently waved his arms. The faint flame followed his movements and danced around the sedan chair.
Wherever the flames passed, the air seemed to be slightly distorted, and the surroundings instantly fell into silence, as if all sounds were swallowed up by the mysterious flames.
As expected, as he guessed, it was a ghost haunting the area...
Moreover, judging from its childish words and actions, this ghost probably has the mental capacity of a three-year-old child... and is easily fooled.
Outside the sedan chair, Gu Qingze's battle with the little ghosts was nearing its end.
He held a long sword in his hand, his posture was as straight as a pine tree, and there was a hint of sharpness in his eyes.
Those little ghosts were like fragile pieces of paper in front of him. He just casually waved his sword a few times. In the flash of the sword, the little ghosts dissipated one after another, turning into wisps of black smoke and disappearing into the air.
Just as the bearers were about to lift the sedan chair and continue moving forward, Chu Lingxiao's clear voice suddenly rang out: "Qingze, I want to get off the sedan chair now and go somewhere."
Gu Qingze was slightly stunned, obviously a little surprised, but he quickly regained his composure and obediently stretched out a hand into the sedan.
Chu Lingxiao stretched out his hand without hesitation and interlocked his fingers with Gu Qingze's.
He stood up slowly and was about to reach out to lift the curtain and get out of the sedan chair, but Gu Qingze was faster and took the lead to lift the curtain for him.
Chu Lingxiao let Gu Qingze lead him and slowly walked down from the sedan chair.
He was still wearing the festive red veil and did not lift it up just because it blocked his view.
When the sedan bearers saw the bride get off the sedan, they were immediately panicked and didn't know what to do.
They all turned their gazes to Gu Qingze, who had just saved their lives, their eyes full of questions.
Gu Qingze keenly sensed their thoughts and turned to look at them, a hint of majesty in his eyes:
"Everyone, I've noticed there's another evil spirit nearby. Stay here and don't move. Once I've eliminated that evil spirit, we can move on."
When the sedan bearers heard his words, they looked at each other in confusion. One of the bolder sedan bearers couldn't help but ask:
"Then Immortal, why don't you just go by yourself? Why bring the bride with you? If anything happens to her, we won't be able to explain it to you."
Gu Qingze first assured: "Don't worry, I will protect her."
After a moment's thought, he made up an excuse, saying, "I brought the bride with me because she's the key to breaking the impasse. Only by bringing her along can I better eliminate that evil spirit."
The sedan bearers only half understood what he said, but they didn't dare to ask any more questions. They just nodded and said, "Then, Immortal, please come back safely. We will be waiting for you here."
Gu Qingze nodded slightly, and considering that the sedan bearers might be in danger, he signaled them to gather together.
He raised his hand and drew a circle around them, then he took out a ring-shaped spiritual weapon from his storage bag.
The spiritual weapon emitted a purple light. He mobilized his spiritual power and input it into it. The ring-shaped spiritual weapon instantly formed a solid protective shield where he drew the circle.
"No one can leave this protective shield until we return. Otherwise, whether you live or die will be none of my business."
The sedan bearers hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Immortal, we will definitely stay here quietly."
After seeing Gu Qingze complete these steps, Chu Lingxiao slowly spoke: "Qingze, go northwest, we've found something."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingze held Chu Lingxiao's hand tightly and walked steadily in the direction he said.
Along the way, neither of them spoke, but the atmosphere was not dull. On the contrary, a tacit tranquility permeated between them, as if everything around them had become softer.
The road to the northwest gradually became rugged and uneven, like a winding dragon.
The surrounding scenery became increasingly desolate, and the earth seemed to have lost its vitality, leaving only withered weeds and rugged rocks.
The wind whistled past, bringing up gusts of dust, which filled the air like yellow smoke.
However, the dust and sand could not stop the two men's firm steps. They walked forward step by step, as if nothing could stop them.
After walking for a while, Gu Qingze finally couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Ling Xiao, what did you find?"
Chu Lingxiao smiled mysteriously, and his voice came through the red veil: "You will know in a moment."
At this moment, a magic circle suddenly appeared on the ground. The magic circle seemed to be drawn with blood and exuded a strange aura.
They were right in the center of the magic circle at this moment, as if they were being tightly grasped by an invisible giant hand.
At this time, the magic circle was completely activated, and red rays of light wrapped around them like ropes, trapping them here.
Moreover, this magic circle was draining their blood bit by bit, like a greedy bloodthirsty demon.
Chu Lingxiao said calmly, "Qingze, I'm relying on you. I can't use my spiritual power until we get there."
