"That person, the one you called the man in black robes, I don't know if I should call him a person anymore."

“He is actually decades older than me. I met him when I first entered Baiyun Temple. My master took me to catch ghosts, and he was a monster who could control ghosts.”

“I asked my master if he was a ghost, but he didn’t understand either, and only said that he was not a ghost.”

When Ling Yue heard Old Zhang suddenly start talking about the man in black robes, she immediately sat up.

"You mean he's almost two hundred years old?!"

This guy might not be human, or at least he'd be a genius.

"Controlling ghosts? If such people really exist, then what's the point of having the Underworld?"

Zhang Weiyi seemed to be in a good mood today, and basically answered all questions.

"The underworld and the world of the living must also maintain a balance and restrain each other."

"And this man in black robes, cough cough, no, you've all misled me, he has a name, Chu Ping."

"He was born with this special ability, so its existence is justified. The Underworld can't possibly prevent it from existing, can it?"

Ling Yue couldn't help but sigh, "The world is full of wonders. To have such a superpower, isn't it like you've been dealing with ghosts since birth?"

"And also, Grandmaster, when he attacked and injured me that day, I clearly heard him talking to you, and it was a woman's voice!"

"Could he be a woman?"

After hearing this, Zhang Weiyi stroked his newly grown mustache and laughed.

"After all, you're not completely stupid. He's a twin, possessing both a male and a female soul."

Ling Yue: ……

She was speechless with shock; it completely shattered her worldview.

"He's so amazing! Could you introduce us, Master?"

Zhang Weiyi: ...You are truly brave.

"You were seriously injured on your very first meeting with him, are you sure you still want to get to know him?"

"Hey, there must be some misunderstanding here. Once the misunderstanding is cleared up, we might even become friends after this fight!"

Zhang Weiyi seems to already know what Ling Yue is thinking.

"Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"

"Are you trying to lure people to the Ghost World?"

"Have you gotten into a feud with Xuanqing Temple? First you poached Su Shiming, one of their key trainees, and now you're attacking their core members?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yue became even more agitated. "Are you saying that Chu Ping is from Xuanqing Temple?"

"Yes, he's an elder-level figure. He hasn't appeared for many years. I didn't expect him to come out of seclusion again."

"How can such a capable person be at Xuanqing Temple? No, no, we have to find a way to poach him!"

Zhang Weiyi waved his hand repeatedly, "Stop, who's talking to you or us? You are your ghostly world, and I am my cordyceps shop. You are you, and I am me."

"Tch, if you're going to be so serious at this point, then you're still my ancestor, so why did you save me in the first place?"

"The shops are all closed now, so you need to come and take care of me~"

Zhang Weiyi ignored her and directly opened the game, intending to start another round. "Want to play another game?"

"Hehehe, as long as you don't mind me ripping you off, I'll gladly risk my life to accompany you~"

After finishing his conversation with Chen Wenli, Su Shiming quickly returned to the Death Zone.

Seeing Seventeen talking to thin air and constantly pushing the snacks in front of her towards the other side, even though there was nothing there...

After thinking it over, he decided that it would be more appropriate for Seventeen and Sweetheart to tell Wang Yiyi and her brother, since they were more familiar with each other. Otherwise, he would have to ask them to pass on the message.

Su Shiming called out "Seventeen" at the door, and she said to the air, "You guys eat slowly first, I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back in a little while."

Su Shiming shared his thoughts with Seventeen and also expressed Ling Yue's suggestion.

It's not a good idea for the child ghost to keep floating around like this; it must enter the cycle of reincarnation as soon as possible to avoid any unforeseen complications.

Seventeen looked hesitant and stammered, "Okay..."

“Honey, if you feel uncomfortable, then I’ll say it.”

"It's not that I feel embarrassed, it's that I'm afraid of hurting their feelings..."

"It's okay, I'll explain. You're just scaring the kids by standing there."

When Seventeen returned to her room, she saw Wang Yiyi, Wang Yiran, and Sweetheart sitting in a row eating snacks.

Just as I was pondering how to start the conversation, little Wang Yiran, the older sister, spoke first.

"Sister, are you going to tell us we're already dead?"

Seventeen was stunned on the spot.

"How do you..."

“They already knew. You underestimate children’s ability to observe.”

Sweetheart said casually as she licked the spoonful of pastry stuck to it.

Seventeen: ...

They were worrying for nothing...

"We're sorry to have worried you, sister, but we still want to see Mom and Dad..."

As Wang Yi was speaking, tears welled up in his eyes, and Sweetheart immediately fed him a spoonful of pastry.

"Don't cry, or you won't see your mom and dad again!"

Seventeen: ...

Sweetheart really does have a knack for taking care of children.

"Don't worry, I'll let you see your mom and dad, I promise."

When Seventeen shared the situation in the Ghost Human Work Group, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but also found it a bit funny. Adults always assume what they think about what children are thinking.

Chu Xin also reported on the situation at the hospital in the group.

Initial intention: The couple had just woken up and had no serious injuries, only superficial wounds.

When she woke up, she wanted to find her children. This woman kept begging me to find her children, and she even tried to kneel down, which scared me half to death!

What should we do now?

Should they acknowledge each other immediately? It seems they already have a premonition that their child is gone…

Ling Yue: Chu Xin, don't you have a talisman that can make ghosts appear?

When Su Shiming brings Wang Yiyi and her siblings over, you can comfort them.

Original intention:.

What's wrong with everyone? They're all starting to follow Chen Wenli's lead and use period marks.

They don't want to say a single word more than necessary.

Su Shiming: Shall we set off now?

Ling Yue: Just to be on the safe side, let your master go with you. It's quite a distance from the Ghost Realm to that hospital. @Chen Wenli

Chen Wenli:

Good job!

Things went quite smoothly after that. When they met Wang Yiyi's parents again, their condition was even worse than when they were in a coma.

He pulled Chu Xin aside, "You've already told them?"

Chu Xin replied expressionlessly, "I already said it. What's the point of hiding this? We are all cultivators, and we should take birth, aging, sickness, and death lightly."

"I'll be the bad guy, and you can be the good guy from now on."

Su Shiming was speechless for a moment; this guy was as righteous as ever.

"Hello."

Faced with Su Shiming's greeting, Wang Yiyi's parents didn't even lift their eyelids. They had already shed too many tears and were still unable to pull themselves out of their grief.

Meanwhile, Wang Yiyi and her siblings were calling out to their parents, tears streaming down their faces, their voices hoarse, but they couldn't hear them...

Seventeen couldn't bear it and quickly reminded Chuxin, "Can you hurry up? The children keep crying and calling for their mom and dad."

When Wang Yiyi's mother heard Seventeen mention her child, she immediately perked up.

"My child? Where is my child? Where is my poor child...?"

Chu Xin calmly interrupted them, "If you had a chance to meet again, would you want it or not?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yiyi's father was so excited that he jumped off the bed despite his foot injury.

"Yes, yes, we want to see our child, little master, please, I beg you!"

"Alright, when you meet in a little while, I hope you will cherish the opportunity to see each other."

"You only have ten minutes."

Wang Yiyi's parents nodded repeatedly.

Then, Chu Xin took out two talismans from her briefcase.

She bit her fingertip and dripped blood onto it. The talisman seemed to come alive and floated up. Chu Xin chanted a spell, pointed her finger, and the talisman automatically moved onto Wang Yiyi's parents.

In that instant, they saw their child.

"Yi Yi, Yi Ran!"

"my child……"

When they ran towards each other, wanting a hug, they realized they couldn't actually reach each other...

Wang Yiyi and Wang Yiran passed right through their parents like they were invisible.

Although everyone knows it, it's hard to accept when you actually face it.

"Mom and Dad, Yi-yi doesn't want to be separated from you..."

Wang Yiyi said, crying.

His parents were heartbroken when they heard this.

"If there is an afterlife, my brother and I will still be your children. It's settled then, Mom and Dad."

Wang Yiran is two years older than her younger brother, and she kept holding back her tears, playing the role of the older sister.
