A moment later.
Swish, swish, swish!!
Several figures arrived on the rooftop.
They were members of the Cleaners.
Carrying detectors, they made their way to the top of the building.
Beep, beep, beep~~
The detectors emitted a calm, steady sound.
The operators, puzzled, tapped on the instruments to make sure they weren’t malfunctioning. Then, they turned to Kong Yu, who was standing at the edge of the rooftop, and said, "Sister Yu, there’s no trace of evil spirits here anymore."
"Strange, could that flash of daylight earlier have been a mistake?"
"Idiot, you must be hallucinating from staying up all night."
A rookie looked curiously at Kong Yu, who was standing motionless, and walked up to her, asking, "Captain, why are you..."
Before he could finish, someone nearby pulled him back: "Shh, quiet! Our captain is reconstructing the scene!"
"You can even do that?"
"Of course. While there are evil spirits in this world, there are also benevolent ones. We can communicate with them through special means and ask them to help us investigate and reconstruct the truth."
"Impressive!"
Kong Yu, the squad leader of the Wang City Cleaners branch, stood at the edge of the building, frowning.
She pulled out a talisman and murmured, "Heavenly Eye, reveal the hidden, illuminate the shadows, let the past reappear."
"Yin and Yang reverse, the truth... shall be revealed!"
Her gaze sharpened, and the talisman turned into golden dust, dissipating into the air.
But... after a while.
Nothing happened?
Kong Yu frowned again. She pulled out another talisman: "The truth... shall be revealed!"
"Reveal!"
"The truth! Reveal!"
She used several talismans, the kind that spirits loved, but still, there was no response.
Now, Kong Yu realized something was wrong. She turned to look at the detector.
Logically, even if there were no evil spirits, the readings shouldn’t be this calm.
In other words...
Kong Yu’s heart sank: "There are no spirits left here."
"No spirits left?"
Everyone was stunned, their eyes widening in shock.
No spirits.
Not just evil spirits, but even the ordinary, benevolent ones that were hard to see and communicate with... they were gone too??
What?
How is that possible?
Everyone exchanged bewildered glances.
Does this make sense?
Kong Yu took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. The air, once filled with the aura of evil spirits, had been completely cleansed.
That flash of daylight earlier...
She swallowed hard, her shock growing.
The Daoists from Dragon Tiger Mountain hadn’t arrived in Wang City yet.
So it couldn’t have been them.
In other words...
There was someone in Wang City with terrifyingly profound skills...
Who, not long ago, had eradicated all the spirits in Wang City?!
Good heavens!!
Kong Yu took another deep breath. The waters of Wang City ran deep indeed!
...
...
Ning Family.
In Su Muwan’s room.
"Ehehe... I can’t eat anymore, Qin Luo..."
Su Muwan rolled over in her sleep, hugging a shark plushie, mumbling strange things.
Gurgle, gurgle!
A figure gradually materialized.
It was Qin Luo.
He blinked as he looked at Su Muwan’s messy sleeping posture, quickly imprinting her appearance in his mind.
The young lady is so beautiful.
Qin Luo thought to himself.
At this moment, he had concealed his aura, hidden by the shadows.
He made sure Su Muwan wouldn’t notice anything.
But...
Qin Luo thought for a moment. Wasn’t he acting a bit like a creep?
No, as Su Muwan’s personal attendant, checking on the young lady’s sleeping posture late at night was perfectly normal.
Qin Luo nodded to himself, then stepped forward.
He gently pulled the thin blanket over Su Muwan.
Looking at her soft, fragrant face, Qin Luo whispered with a smile, "Sleep well, young lady."
"And..."
Qin Luo leaned closer to Su Muwan’s exposed, delicate, and smooth feet.
Huh?
You ask who Xiao Yu and Xiao Zu are?
Qin Luo explained that these were the names he had given to Su Muwan’s feet.
"Good evening, Xiao Yu, Xiao Zu."
"Let me tell you something..."
...
...
The next day.
Su Muwan woke up full of energy.
She walked into the courtyard and took a deep breath: "Mmm~!"
Then, her expression lit up with delight: "Huh? The air seems a bit fresher than yesterday."
"Don’t you think so, Qin Luo?"
She turned to Qin Luo, who nodded and explained, "The evil spirit aura has been cleared, so the air feels better."
"How do you know it’s been cleared?"
"I cleared it last night."
"Giggle! Qin Luo, you’re such a braggart!"
Qin Luo: .......?
He shook his head with a wry smile. These days, even telling the truth gets you labeled a liar.
Oh well, as long as the young lady is happy.
"Woof, woof!"
At that moment.
Su Bailian, who had slept well, walked over with Boqi on a leash.
She was dressed beautifully, stopping gracefully in front of Su Muwan and Qin Luo.
Su Bailian flipped her hair, one hand on her hip, and smiled sweetly at Su Muwan: "Good morning, Sister Su~~ Qin Luo~~"
Su Muwan: ==
Qin Luo: ==
Su Bailian, seeing their expressions, quickly straightened up and coughed lightly: "You! Why are you two looking at me like that?"
Am I not beautiful?
Su Muwan snorted coldly: "So many theatrics."
"Spit it out if you have something to say."
You!! Su Muwan!! You never have a single nice word for me!!
Su Bailian trembled with anger, tugging on the leash to keep Boqi from running toward Qin Luo.
She raised her chin slightly and said, "Do you know who’s coming to Wang City today?"
"The youngest Heavenly Master from Dragon Tiger Mountain and his fellow disciples from various sects!!! It’s said that hundreds of them are coming!"
"I’m going to get my fortune told!"
"I heard it’s very accurate."
At this, Su Muwan and Qin Luo exchanged a glance.
The youngest Heavenly Master from Dragon Tiger Mountain?
Could it be who we’re thinking of?
"What’s the Heavenly Master’s name?"
"Something like... Suan... Suan something."
"Suan Tianxing?"
"Ah, yes, that’s it!"
Su Bailian nodded instinctively, but then a thought struck her.
She turned to Su Muwan and Qin Luo, hesitating before asking, "First, let me ask... have you two met Suan Tianxing before?"
Qin Luo and Su Muwan glanced at each other, then nodded: "Yes."
"What did you do to him?"
"Well..."
"Did you... hit him?"
"No."
"That’s good..."
"Qin Luo just slapped him twice and sent him rolling out of Jiang City, so you’d better not go. You might get caught up in it."
!!!
Crack!
Su Bailian froze, her expression stiffening.
What?! Huh??
I was planning to ask for good fortune! And now... it’s all over before it even began?
Su Muwan ignored the petrified Su Bailian, muttering to herself, "The people from Dragon Tiger Mountain are coming to deal with the evil spirits?"
"But... why so many of them?"
"What kind of evil spirit would require such a large group?"
Qin Luo, hearing this, glanced around before finally looking at Su Muwan.
Su Muwan: ?
"Qin Luo, why are you looking at me so strangely?"
"Because the young lady is so adorable, I couldn’t help but stare."
"Hmph! You’re so cheesy first thing in the morning, Qin Luo!"
"You don’t like it, young lady?"
"Of course not! Only a love-struck fool would enjoy such cheesy lines!"
[Loyalty +10]
Su Bailian: ? Do you two even care about how others feel?
