However, he suddenly remembered that he had bought five people at the Ghost Realm Auction.
After being sent into the mirror space, these people were kept in a courtyard. Every day, the mirror ghost arranged for clones to deliver food to them, and there were also clones guarding the door to prevent them from going out and seeing things they shouldn't see.
Originally, I planned to release them once I returned to the human world, but as time went on, I forgot about them.
"Put them in Luobei City tomorrow morning."
After Xia Tianqiong finished speaking, another idea suddenly popped into her mind.
In a courtyard, three men and two women were chatting idly.
A short-haired girl sat under the eaves, leaning against the wall, and complained, "When can we get out? It's like being in prison here."
A bespectacled boy next to him said, "Going to jail is better than being eaten by some monster!"
Another long-haired girl chimed in, "Yeah, we have great food and drinks here, and there's no danger. It's much safer than the outside world."
The short-haired girl suddenly asked, "Do you think the person who bought us was a human or a monster?"
"It must be a person, otherwise how could there be so much human food and clothing here? And that person must be someone extraordinary."
A tall, thin, and handsome boy leaned against the stone table; he was the calmest of the five.
Upon hearing this, the bespectacled man's eyes lit up. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw a person appear in the shadows of the eaves.
"ah!"
The short-haired girl screamed in fright, then realized that it was the person who had bought them!
In the courtyard, there were three men and two women, all around eighteen or nineteen years old. Upon seeing Xia Tianqiong appear, they immediately stood up and stood there cautiously.
Looking at them, Xia Tianqiong felt they looked a bit like college students.
"Don't be nervous, we'll send you away tomorrow morning."
The others seemed a little nervous upon hearing this, but the tall, thin boy asked, "Is the outside world the realm of ghosts or the human world?"
"Of course it's the human world. Didn't I say I'd release you when we return to the human world?"
"Thank you for saving us, otherwise we would have died in the Ghost Realm."
The five people thanked him repeatedly and even bowed to him.
Xia Tianqiong suddenly said, "The outside world is rife with strange occurrences and is extremely dangerous. I can give you a chance to stay and follow me. Of course, this is just an inquiry, not a demand. If you don't want to, that's fine too. I'll still send you away tomorrow morning."
The five people looked at each other, seemingly wanting to ask a question, but none of them said a word.
The boy with glasses, however, seemed quite excited. "Boss, I'm willing to follow you."
He understood very clearly that this person could freely travel between the human world and the underworld, and could even buy them at high prices; he was definitely a big shot.
With such a great opportunity, of course I should try to curry favor with a powerful figure.
Xia Tianqiong smiled and said, "Okay, come with me now. I have something to tell you."
He suddenly had a thought: since using forbidden techniques comes at a price, why not let someone else use them for him?
Just as he was about to leave with the boy wearing glasses, the tall, thin boy suddenly called out to him.
"Could you please take me to the Mo family in the capital?"
Xia Tianqiong was taken aback. "The Mo family, an ancient clan?"
The tall, thin boy's face lit up with joy; it seemed the other party indeed knew his family. "Yes, I am a member of the Mo family. Please take me back to the Mo family; my family will definitely repay you handsomely."
Xia Tianqiong couldn't help but smile. She was just about to go to the capital to cause some trouble!
