Perhaps the reason the ghosts didn't come here was because Chu was once a female general on the battlefield, and her murderous aura was comparable to his, which is why the ghosts didn't dare to show themselves in the East Garden.
"It's good that you're alright. I still have things to take care of, you should rest first!"
Sheng Lingtian said this and strode outside.
Seeing this, Madam Chu glanced indifferently at Sheng Lingtian's back before walking to the bed and leaning against the headboard to read a book.
As Sheng Lingtian reached the door, he glanced back and saw Chu Shi's leisurely and carefree appearance, which inexplicably ignited a nameless anger within him.
Previously, the Chu family always tried every means to keep him in the East Garden, doing everything they could to win back his heart.
He initially felt that the existence of the Chu family was a disgrace to him, and that his colleagues ridiculed him for rising to power through women.

This man was none other than Yin Liu, a secret guard of the Chu family.
Although his martial arts skills were high, they were not top-tier.
His most outstanding skill was his agility; most people couldn't catch him. He was an excellent spy and investigator...
Upon hearing this, Madam Chu said calmly:
"I thought the abbot of Qingyun Temple would have some skills, but I didn't expect him to be so weak!"
"It's not that the abbot of Qingyun Temple is weak; he possesses a demonic spirit! And it's the most ferocious of all demonic spirits—the Bride Demonic Spirit. Master, are you familiar with the Bride Demonic Spirit?"
