The red light around the chair continued to flash, but the door slowly closed again.
"This...the person just left like that?" Wang Yao was stunned by what he saw.
"Not a person, but a ghost!" The bespectacled ghost rolled his eyes at Wang Yao. "She has already been taken to the fifth floor below. As an immortal, you sent the wandering ghost back to the underworld. You should be rewarded with 10 merit points. Come on, let me give you a boost."
Wang Yao never expected that he would receive merit points for doing a good deed. The bespectacled ghost did not touch Wang Yao, but instead waved a mouse-like object at him. Wang Yao immersed his mind in the system and saw that his merit points had indeed increased by 10 points.

"Alright, the paths of immortals and the underworld are different. Now that the immortal has handed you over to the wandering ghost and received your merit, please leave the underworld quickly."

"The ghosts on the floor all have soul lamps for navigation, but I didn't notice. Immortals don't have those things." The bespectacled ghost took a lighter, lit the wick in the paper lantern, and handed it to Wang Yao.
"Carry this soul lantern and silently recite the place you want to go. The lantern will naturally guide you there. But you must be careful, the wick isn't very long, and the lantern is vulnerable to wind, so you can't walk too fast or take too long, otherwise..."
The bespectacled ghost explained to Wang Yao.
"If you get lost in this building, it'll be a real problem. The ghosts in the underworld are all too busy to give you directions, so be careful."
