Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

It turned out that Song Tai had rushed back, panting heavily.

But when he arrived at Ye Yu's door, he suddenly hesitated.

It was already late at night. What if I knocked on Ye Yu's door in the middle of the night and there was nothing unusual on her side? Wouldn't I be seen as a scoundrel with ulterior motives?

But if he couldn't confirm Ye Yu's safety, how could he know if that thing had come after her? These two thoughts swirled in Song Tai's mind, causing him great distress.

After hesitating for a moment, Song Tai finally couldn't suppress his worry for Ye Yu's safety.

So he came up with a way to satisfy both sides: he would quietly climb onto Ye Yu's balcony and secretly observe whether she was still inside.

This way, we can know for sure whether Ye Yu is safe and sound, and at the same time avoid being misunderstood as someone with ill intentions.

Once the idea was made up, Song Tai put it into action without hesitation.

He moved swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, he gracefully vaulted over the wall and landed steadily on the balcony of Ye Yu's room.

Immediately afterwards, he secretly used his inner strength and with a slight tremor, easily popped the lock on the balcony door open.

Then, he tiptoed open the balcony door and quietly slipped into the house.

Just as Song Tai stepped into the house, his expression changed.

He was shocked to discover that both the master bedroom and the second bedroom doors in Ye Yu's house were wide open!

He quickly went forward and searched the entire house, but did not find Ye Yu. Song Tai was almost certain that Ye Yu had probably been murdered.

Song Tai returned to his room and sighed. He should have come back earlier; he had been careless.

He lay down on the bed, staring at the ceiling, a cold glint in his eyes, and muttered to himself, "I'll go up and take care of you tonight, so you won't hurt anyone else."

He made up his mind to go up there tonight and deal with that monstrous thing.

Although that thing is very powerful, it has talismans brought from the hidden gate and two 'Qi-restoring pills' on it, so it should be fine.

Song Tai climbed to the eighth floor via the seventh-floor balcony as before. However, this time he searched the entire eighth-floor apartment, inside and out, but found no trace of the ghost.

He was determined to deal with that thing this time, so he went to the stairwell to go to the ninth floor. But he found that the elevator had come up and opened automatically, and there was nothing inside.

The elevator ran for a while and then shut down, heading directly to the twelfth floor.

Song Tai felt a chill run down his spine. He knew very well that the elevator could only go up to the seventh floor, and he had just come up from downstairs and hadn't noticed anything.

Thinking of the ghostly thing that attacked him on the eighth floor, which he couldn't see, Song Tai gritted his teeth. Anyway, he was here to find that thing in the first place.

So he pressed on and ran straight to the balcony on the twelfth floor, where he saw a female ghost in red about to harm Miss Ye.

That's how the scene of Song Tai stopping the woman in red came about.

Ye Yu was taken aback when she saw Song Tai appear on the balcony, wondering why he had suddenly come to the twelfth floor. However, seeing the anxious look on his face, she could roughly guess what was going on.

Ye Yu thought to herself: This person isn't so bad after all. He actually worried about the safety of a stranger like me. Even though he knew he might not be a match for that ghost, he still rushed forward without hesitation.

On the other hand, the female ghost next to her was furious. She had let the boy go, but she didn't expect him to be so fearless and come looking for trouble instead.

The female ghost turned around and reached out, unleashing five streaks of black wind at Song Tai. Song Tai sheathed his weapon, his expression grave as he twirled the paper cutter in his hand, making a 'swish swish swish' sound to block the black winds that were attacking him.

He shouted loudly at Ye Yu, "Miss Ye, leave quickly! Get out of this building and never come back!"

Then, he took out a yellow talisman from his pocket, kicked off with both feet, and soared into the air, attacking the red-clothed female ghost.

The moment the woman in red came into contact with the talisman, she was burned. She let out a piercing scream, and a strong stench filled the air.

However, the talisman only injured it. It became even more frenzied, and the red-clad female ghost spewed out a black mist from her mouth, containing five or six dark, round spheres.

The ball shot straight at Song Tai, giving him no chance to retaliate.

Seeing the foul-smelling sphere hurtling towards him, Song Tai felt a chill run through his body and was unable to dodge it.

He thought to himself: Am I going to die here? But I haven't found anything yet. My master would be very sad if he knew I was going to die here.

Just as he thought of this, he felt a surge of heat on his cheek. Several fireballs of considerable temperature appeared out of nowhere and spread out to envelop the sphere. Within two seconds, the sphere disappeared.

Song Tai was taken aback by this unexpected turn of events. Who had saved him? Could there be other experts here?

He looked around carefully. There were only him and Miss Ye in the room. Could it be Miss Ye?

The woman in red was furious when she saw Ye Yu make a move. She spread her arms wide, and many black ghostly figures floated out from her body, quickly enveloping the room in black mist.

Ye Yu first shot a blue protective shield at Song Tai to prevent him from being injured by the ghost mist.

Then, with a cold snort, he formed hand seals. Instantly, more than a dozen whirlwinds formed by flames rushed towards the black mist.

These whirlwinds were so fast that in the blink of an eye, they burned the black mist to pieces.

Seeing that something was wrong, the woman in red knew that Ye Yu was determined to kill her. Therefore, she released her ghostly mist without hesitation to block Ye Yu's vision, and then she floated up to the roof of the twelfth floor in a flash.

Ye Yu eliminated the black mist in the room before withdrawing the blue light shield that had been covering Song Tai.

Seeing that Ye Yu had easily subdued the woman in red, Song Tai looked at her with a complicated expression and said, "Miss Ye, you live here and aren't afraid of ghosts, and you dealt with such a powerful woman so easily. Are you also a member of the Hidden Sect?"

Song Tai, recalling Ye Yu's swift and decisive actions, knew that she was no ordinary person.

Ye Yu nodded: "Actually, my true identity is a deity. These ghosts are nothing but ants in my eyes. They can only run away when they see me."

Song Tai was taken aback at first, then shook his head and chuckled. He asked, "Then why did you say you didn't know when I asked you if you had noticed any noise upstairs?"

Ye Yu stepped forward: "It's better to avoid trouble. Since you haven't bothered me, I'll just pretend I don't know anything."

Hearing Ye Yu's words, Song Tai nodded. It was indeed best to avoid trouble when traveling. So he said, "It's good that you can handle this thing. I was worried that you had already been harmed."

Ye Yu chuckled: "Thank you for your righteous rescue. I was also annoyed by this ghost, so I decided to take action to deal with it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Yu grabbed Song Tai's wrist, and Song Tai's face turned red instantly as he tried to pull his arm away.

"Don't move," Ye Yu said, "There's a foul energy inside you!" Upon hearing this, Song Tai stopped struggling.

Ye Yu separated a portion of her spiritual power to expel the foul energy from Song Tai's body.

As soon as Song Tai opened his mouth, he exhaled a cloud of black mist. Ye Yu waved his right hand, and a ball of flame burned it to ashes.

"What happened to me just now?" Song Tai asked, his face grim.

"You fell into the trap set by that female ghost. You probably fell into it unintentionally when you came up here," Ye Yu said.

Song Tai thought for a moment: "When I came up just now, the elevator came up by itself, but nothing came down after it opened. I might have been hit by it just now."

Ye Yu nodded: "Possibly."

After saying that, she looked up at the ceiling and said to Song Tai, "It escaped to the rooftop. Let's go up and take a look."
