Gu Yunni didn't feel anything was wrong. After thinking for a while, she gave an answer.
Sheng Mingyu frowned and was about to say something else when he was interrupted by the Imperial Master.
"I think so too. Let's go in and take a look first. If you're scared, just stand outside and assign us a few guards. We three magicians won't encounter any big trouble."
"Well, it's okay if you don't trust me in other aspects, but if you don't trust me in this aspect, I won't accept it!" Shangguan An nodded, and they made the decision directly.
Sheng Mingyu didn't know what to say, so he could only follow behind silently.
"Since you said you want to go in, let's go in together. These guards have to stay outside. No one knows if anything unexpected will happen. If someone comes, they can still stop them."
The few of them did not waste any more time and chose to take the risk.
After walking for a while, we saw that the sky, which had been clear just a moment ago, was suddenly covered with dark clouds.
There was a burst of cold energy coming from the front, which made several people shiver.
"We are almost here. We will reach the place where the evil spirit is in another quarter of an hour at most. Let's protect the prince first. He has a lot of evil spirit on him. If he is infected by the breath here, I am afraid he will not get better easily." The national teacher walked to the front, stopped, turned back and gave instructions.
Gu Yunni walked to Sheng Mingyu and grabbed his hand. He, who had just felt chest tightness, felt much more comfortable now and looked at Gu Yunni gently.
"Luckily, you're by my side, otherwise I really don't know what to do. In the past, I always endured this kind of thing, but since you've been by my side, I've gained a lot of confidence."
"Don't worry! I will always be by your side to protect you."
The sweet atmosphere between the two almost overflowed. The national teacher rolled his eyes and continued to move forward. Shangguan An held countless talismans in his hands, ready to deal with emergencies.
Not long after they walked, they saw a small wooden house appear in front of them. The Imperial Master turned around and looked at Gu Yunni.
"Didn't the maid you met last time say that they fainted in this place?"
Gu Yunni nodded with a serious look in her eyes, and Shangguan An expressed his doubts.
"Then why didn't we faint? Could it be that the aura here has also weakened? I can always sense a strong yin energy here, unless someone is controlling it from behind."
"It's possible. I took off all my defenses and didn't sense any attack. It's very likely that someone is watching from behind."
The hearts of several people sank to the bottom of the valley. It felt really bad that they were in the dark and the other side was in the light.
"Be careful on the way forward. There's a high probability that you'll be ambushed once you enter the house. You protect the prince. Shangguan An and I will be in the front. If there's something you can't resolve, you can take action later." The Imperial Master gave a few more instructions before they set out again.
He first took everyone around the cabin and found many corpses and blood, which made him more alert.
Finally, he walked to the door, took a deep breath, and pushed it open.
Shangguan An was extremely alert. He rushed to the front and threw talismans around, but found that there was no breath in the room. Several people stood there in a daze.
The atmosphere in the cabin is a thousand times better than outside. There are already signs of warming here, and there are even green plants appearing, just like a normal paradise.
"All the negative energy is emanating from around the cabin. There must be treasures here. Let's first check if there's a basement or underground passage. There's a chance the things inside might be even more sinister."
Gu Yunni then suggested that this was the experience she gained from Shangguan An, that people who do bad things like to work underground.
"Here! There's a mechanism here."
Shangguan An was indeed experienced and found the mechanism as quickly as possible.
The national teacher was immediately surprised and rushed to the front.
"You better be careful. No one knows what's going on in the basement. If there's any problem, run away."
They didn't dare to delay too much. When the Imperial Master pushed open the door, Gu Yunni had already made all preparations.
I thought there would be broken limbs inside, but I found it unusually clean, with only a trace of blood on the floor. On the bed in the middle, an evil ghost was lying on it, barely breathing.
"It's really effortless. I thought it would take a lot of time, but it just came to me. Go ahead and take a look. What happened to this evil spirit?"
The Imperial Master was very surprised and relieved.
Shangguan An smiled faintly, walked forward and checked the evil spirit himself.
"It seems his soul is about to dissipate. In his current condition, it's impossible for him to be reborn. I'm afraid his soul has been scattered. I just don't know who has such great power? He was shocked like this with just a palm strike."
It didn't take Shangguan An much time to determine the evil spirit's physical condition, his tone full of admiration.
"Anyway, I definitely can't reach that level. If you want me to shatter the spirit of an evil ghost with one palm, I need to practice for a while longer. It seems that there is an even more powerful magician in Kyoto. Either his methods are amazing, or he has real skills."
After he summarized, he looked at Gu Yunni and his words were suggestive.
In his opinion, the most powerful ones are Gu Yunni and the National Master. If anyone can do it, it is no one else but these two.
"What's the point of looking at me? If you want me to disperse the evil spirit's soul with one palm, it will be difficult. My cultivation is enough, but I'm a girl and I don't have enough strength."
As soon as Gu Yunni finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to the National Master.
The imperial teacher was so angry that he jumped up and ran out immediately.
"Are you guys crazy? If I could have found the evil spirit earlier, I wouldn't have gotten up so early to run around with you guys! I'm not a masochist, and I don't know who hurt him. As far as I know, there's no one so powerful."
His tone was slightly disgusted, but his eyes were full of admiration.
I don't know why such a capable person would do such a thing?
"Wake up the evil spirit first and ask it. It should know."
"Okay." The national teacher immediately started working, and several people assisted him.
But no matter how hard they tried, the evil ghost was still dying.
Gu Yunni frowned, anxiety showing on her face.
"Who on earth has such great power that he could kill the evil spirit with just one palm? What should we do? If it doesn't wake up, we won't know who is behind it!"
"Don't worry. There's a spell in the book you gave me last time that I've never used before. Why don't you try it? I heard it can wake up seriously ill patients."
The Imperial Master wasted no time and quickly drew the talisman. As soon as he threw it out, the evil spirit slowly woke up.
As soon as he saw the crowd, he struggled frantically.
"I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. Please don't destroy my soul! I was controlled by someone before and I don't know anything. I didn't mean to hurt anyone. Please let me go!"
It cried out, and its words revealed a lot of information.
