Ling Yue tried calling Jia Zhengjing several times, but the call was always out of service. Had she chased after that vixen all the way to the deepest mountains? Could something have really happened to her?

"Red Hair, have you been in contact with Xuanqing Temple lately?"

"Just report to Zhenyangzi what's been happening in the Ghostly Realm lately. Nothing much has happened recently."

As Su Shiming spoke, he seemed to suddenly remember something, paused for a moment, and continued, "By the way, Zhenyangzi seemed to have specifically asked about Xiao Liangsheng's situation, but I didn't say much to him."

"But I always felt that he knew about Xiao Liangsheng being raised at his maternal grandfather's house. I didn't say that."

"It seems that Zhenyangzi is still not giving up on Xiao Liangsheng. No, we have to bring Xiao Liangsheng to Baiyun Temple as soon as possible."

"I suspect that the incident where Xiao Liangsheng's father encountered the beautiful ghost was also the work of Zhen Yangzi, probably more of a revenge tactic..."

Just as I was pondering this, Jia Zhengjing finally called.

"Master! Where are you now? I can't get through to your phone!"

Jia Zhengjing was panting as she spoke, "Don't even mention it, it's such a disgrace! I, Jia Zhengjing, have lived for so long, and I've actually been trapped in a ghost wall, hahaha, I'd like to see who's so capable!"

Laughter sounds worse than crying...

Ling Yue felt a headache coming on and quickly comforted her, "Where are you now? Are you coming out? I'll come find you; I have something important to tell you."

"I really don't know where this is. I'll send you the location in a bit."

Ling Yue called Su Shiming and they rushed to Jia Zhengjing's location together.

Su Shiming couldn't help himself in the car because he had heard Jia Zhengjing's angry words on the phone.

From initially being completely unconvinced, I now find myself unable to hold back my laughter in the car, laughing so hard I'm doubled over.

"Alright, my master is several generations older than you. How can you be so disrespectful to your elders? Be careful, Chu Xin might beat you to death if she finds out!"

When Su Shiming heard Chu Xin's name, he actually stopped laughing. It wasn't because he couldn't beat him, but because that guy always went all out in fights, without any sense of restraint, and was too young!

After many twists and turns, we finally found Jia Zhengjing in a dead end. This place was really remote; even cars couldn't get in.

When Ling Yue saw Jia Zhengjing, she wondered if the old man had been bullied. He was usually so meticulous, but now his hair was messy and his clothes had wrinkles.

"Master, there's no one else here. Tell me the truth, were you beaten up?"

It would have been better if she hadn't asked. But once she did, Jia Zhengjing was furious.

"You think I'd get beaten up? Who would beat me? Who could beat me?"

Ling Yue immediately fell silent, because she really couldn't answer.

“My opponent is definitely not simple. It seems I underestimated him. I thought about it carefully and realized that I was just trapped inside a magical artifact.”

"Their goal is to stall me. It seems I was right to ask about the direction of the tracking."

Jia Zhengjing suddenly became serious, and even Su Shiming, who had been trying to suppress his laughter, also stopped.

"Master Jia, did that beautiful ghost escape or was her soul scattered?"

Jia Zhengjing looked worried, as if she were talking to herself.

"You could say she was completely annihilated, or you could say she escaped..."

Ling Yue and Su Shiming were completely confused.

"I'll go back and look into this matter carefully. I'll let you know when I've reached a conclusion. Xiao Lingzi, didn't you say on the phone that it was something important?"

“Master, we must hurry up and bring Xiao Liangsheng back to Baiyun Temple from Grandpa Jing’s place. That Zhenyangzi from last time, he probably hasn’t given up on the child’s soul yet. Xiao Liangsheng is in great danger now.”

"On the way here, we already spoke with Chuxin and told him to keep a close eye on Xiao Liangsheng."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go to the Jing family's old house."

When the three of them arrived at the Jing family's old house, Xiao Liangsheng's full moon celebration had already ended, and most of the people had left.

Only the seventeenth anniversary and the original aspiration remain.

Chu Xin looked at Jia Zhengjing from afar and excitedly stepped forward.

"Master, you even came to pick up Xiao Liangsheng in person! You...you're doing this..."

Jia Zhengjing's sudden arrival and her appearance were indeed quite shocking.

"Where did this old man come from, begging for food in my house?"

Well, Jingyangsheng said everything that he dared not say at the beginning.

"Old Jing, can't you speak properly! You..."

Ling Yue realized things weren't going well. The two of them were over a hundred years old combined. Could they be going to start fighting?

"Oh, Master, Master, important matters are important, important matters are important."

Jia Zhengjing glanced at Jing Yangsheng and said irritably, "I'm not going to argue with you. I'm taking the child with me now."

Jingyang Sheng said those things on purpose. He was already a bit annoyed. It would be so much better if the child was raised at his home, but that Jia guy just had to interfere.

Now they're pretending to be deaf and dumb, just trying to get by as long as possible.

Ling Yue pulled Jing Yangsheng aside and whispered, "Grandpa Jing, the situation has changed. You can probably guess that it's really not easy for Xiao Liangsheng to survive. To be honest, we only realized today that he might not be out of danger yet. The safest place now is Baiyun Temple..."

Upon hearing this, Jingyang Sheng became worried. "Then we definitely can't leave. My house is much safer than their Baiyun Temple, don't you think, Lao Jia?"

Before construction even began, Ling Yue's ancestor, Zhang Weiyi, personally selected the location for his house. From its completion to the present day, the house is surrounded by arrays of various sizes, including those around the rooms.

Ghosts cannot get close, and the security system is top-notch.

After thinking it over, Jia Zhengjing realized that Lou Yangsheng was right. Looking across the entire city, there was no safer place than this.

"Alright, we'll come back to pick up Liang Sheng and take him back to Baiyun Temple after this matter is resolved and the danger is over."

"Old Jing, the opponent is indeed very strong. I will send a few Baiyun Temple disciples to guard them. You don't have any objections to that, do you?"

Jingyang Sheng was overjoyed to see that Xiao Liang Sheng had stayed, and he was happy to let him arrange things as he pleased.

All signs point to Xuanqing Temple, indicating that there is indeed a serious problem with this temple.

The car ride back was deathly still.

Ling Yue shared her speculation with everyone.

"What's the use of just having suspicions? We have no evidence right now, so there's nothing we can do to them..."

Chu Xin seemed to have known for a long time that Xuanqing Temple was not simple, and now she felt somewhat dejected when she mentioned it.

"Don't be so pessimistic. Find the problem, solve it. No matter how difficult it is, there will always be clues to follow. It's just a matter of time."

Su Shiming was relieved to find comfort in his original intention.

"Red Hair is right! I refuse to believe it! Evil has never prevailed over good! We are the embodiment of justice now!"
