Fairy, why bother with me? I am really a yellow-haired villain.

That person disappeared hundreds of years ago. How could he still be alive in this world?

Even if he was still alive, how could he guarantee that his daughter was still alive, not to mention entrusting these strangers to confirm Chen Leling's condition?

This is simply a fantasy and complete nonsense.

It was obvious that Yun Zhonghe and the other two knew nothing about the Chen family's secrets, and they had no idea where they got the name Chen Leling from.

But...it shouldn't be a big problem.

The Chen family does not have much energy to deal with these three people now. They have more important things to do.

They were lucky to have survived.

……

After leaving Chen Mansion, Yun Zhonghe and the other two returned to the inn where they were staying temporarily in Tianhai City.

In the bustling teahouse on the first floor of the inn, Yun Zhonghe looked around but did not see Xia Linglong. Later, he asked the person at the counter and found out that Xia Linglong was not staying in this inn.

This was unexpected for Yun Zhonghe. He originally thought that since Xia Linglong had come all the way here, she would definitely settle down in this inn and look for Su Xiaoxiao at any time.

Although he had doubts, they had more important things to deal with at the moment and had no time to care about this senior sister.

Yun Zhonghe quickly gathered his thoughts, went upstairs with his two companions, and held a small meeting in his room.

"What do you think of the Chen family?"

Yun Zhonghe made a simple opening and looked deeply at the two beautiful girls with solemn expressions.

Su Xinghe frowned slightly when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "There is a faint strange aura."

Su Xinghe broke through the Nascent Soul stage, his mental power has entered the concentration stage, and his intuition is not bad either.

When she first stepped into the Chen family, she actually had a vague feeling that the Chen family was not a good place.

The yin energy is very heavy!

She paused and continued, "I've noticed that, apart from the cultivators with advanced abilities, the other ordinary servants in the Chen family all look very unwell, as if their Yang energy isn't very sufficient."

Su Xinghe shared his discovery.

If it's just one or two people, it's fine, but if there are too many people, it becomes a problem.

Yun Zhonghe nodded: "I also noticed something else, there is a big problem with the Chen family's feng shui!"

"I've also noticed something else: there's a major problem with the Chen family's feng shui layout! On the surface, the Chen family's facade is magnificently decorated, seemingly overflowing with auspiciousness. But in reality, the various decorations and layouts inside hold hidden secrets, creating a situation of great misfortune. The Chen family is, after all, a family of cultivators with a profound heritage. I can't believe they wouldn't even understand this basic feng shui knowledge."

Yun Zhonghe's sharp observation skills surprised Su Xinghe and Su Xiaoxiao, who were standing by. They had not noticed this before.

All in all, no matter what Chen Leling's situation is, the Chen family itself gives people a feeling that something is not right.

The depressing and gloomy atmosphere, as well as the irrational layout, make people feel suspicious.

"Let's talk about Chen Leling again, Chenchen. Does that girl really want to stay in the Chen family?"

Yun Zhonghe looked at Su Xinghe with a questioning look in his eyes. He arranged for Su Xinghe to communicate at that time because Su Xinghe's mental power had reached the concentration stage, and he could fully see through people's hearts and see whether the little girl was lying or not.

Su Xinghe nodded, very sure that the little girl was not lying.

She pondered for a moment and continued, "Is it because that senior passed away too early and she didn't have a very deep impression of him, so she doesn't want to leave the Chen family?"

Yun Zhonghe said, "That's unclear. However, I'm very curious why she went to such lengths to urge us to leave Tianhai City as soon as possible before leaving."

Yun Zhonghe: "Is she really Chen Leling?"

Yun Zhonghe: "In fact, we don't even know how long the senior has been dead."

The questions raised by Yun Zhonghe were like stones thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples that made people fall into deep thought. Some of the questions were even terrifying when thought about carefully.

Recalling the corpses found in that mysterious cave, they looked like they had only been dead for a few years, but was that really the case?

Yun Zhonghe still remembers it vividly. He was swallowed by the ghost vine tree monster, accidentally entered the cave, and miraculously escaped from it. Almost no time passed. It was obvious that the speed of time in reality was not equal to the speed of time in the cave.

So, how long did it take for the senior to pass through the cave in the real world? Decades? Hundreds of years?

Which era did the predecessors belong to?

After hearing Yun Zhonghe's questions, Su Xiaoxiao and Su Xinghe widened their eyes and looked at each other.

There was an inexplicable tension in the air, and the whole incident suddenly became confusing.

In fact, Yun Zhonghe himself had had these thoughts, but he did not care too much at first. After all, this was just a visit to confirm the situation of a girl. If Chen Leling had already passed away, there would be no need to go through so much trouble.

But now, after layers of concealment, it has become even more complicated.

In addition, Tianhai City has been in turmoil recently, with all kinds of strange incidents happening frequently. Last night, Yun Zhonghe even saw a female ghost with his own eyes...

Su Xiaoxiao could no longer suppress her inner urge. She suggested, "How about we sneak into the Chen family later and find out what's going on?"

Yun Zhonghe nodded: "That's exactly what I was thinking. We escaped from that world thanks to Senior's help, so we should help him confirm it thoroughly."

This is Yun Zhonghe's heart of Taoism. Since he has received a favor from someone, he will repay it with gratitude, not to mention that this is the last wish of his predecessor.

There was no way he was going to let this matter go.

The three of them quickly reached an agreement and decided to find a suitable time to sneak into the Chen family and find out the truth.

But not today. I just visited the Chen family today. If I go again now, I might alarm the other party and cause unnecessary trouble and vigilance.

Yun Zhonghe felt that he needed to find another opportunity.

……

After the brief meeting, it was already dark.

Yun Zhonghe and the other two went back to their rooms to rest, gather their strength, and prepare for the next action.

Although he was in the room, Yun Zhonghe's mental power was like a pair of invisible eyes, always observing the situation inside and outside the inn.

As he expected, it seemed that someone had been secretly following them.

In order to further confirm, he decided to take the initiative, deliberately went downstairs, and prepared to go out for a walk to see how the other party would react.

At the front desk, he casually inquired about Xia Linglong and learned that she had not checked in yet.

Could it be that Senior Sister Xia has already left Tianhai City?

It’s a pity that he didn’t exchange the contact information of the sound transmission jade pendant with Xia Linglong, so he couldn’t get in touch with the other party.

But Yun Zhonghe felt that since Xia Linglong had come all the way here, she shouldn't just leave in a hurry without even saying a few words.

Although he didn't want Xia Linglong and Su Xiaoxiao to get too close, objectively speaking, such behavior was indeed unreasonable.

"Well... forget it, let's not worry about it for now." Yun Zhonghe shook his head.

"It seems that they won't chase too closely."

Yun Zhonghe slowly walked out of the inn and strolled leisurely through the streets.

Along the way, his mental power spread out silently like a net, observing the movements of the person he was following, and found that the other party should be just a foundation-building cultivator.

With such cultivation level, he is undoubtedly like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of a true strong man like Yun Zhonghe. Naturally, he dared not act rashly and could only hang far away and maintain a safe distance.

Even if Yun Zhonghe occasionally stopped in some shops, the foundation-building cultivator only dared to wander outside the store and would not come in.

Yun Zhonghe had his own thoughts about this scene.

Although the Chen family is currently in its heyday, it is actually just a second-tier family with a shallow foundation and no high-end combat power. Naturally, they are afraid and dare not make enemies easily.

On the other hand, Yun Zhonghe also speculated that perhaps the Chen family itself did not attach much importance to the three of them and did not regard them as a real threat.

To be honest, Yun Zhonghe did not have much fear towards the Chen family. They were just a group of people who were refining Qi and building their foundation.

Whether it was him or his companion Su Xinghe, it was easy for them to sneak into the Chen family as if they were in an empty place.

Even if they were discovered, with their strength, what could a second-rank family do to them?

According to common sense, they don't need to act so cautiously, they can just be bold and get what they want.

But the various anomalies and weirdness he saw in the Chen family this morning made him feel that there was something seriously wrong, forcing him to act cautiously to avoid falling into a trap.

What's more, Yun Zhonghe is not traveling alone this time. He is also responsible for protecting the heroine and her sister. If something goes wrong, he really doesn't know how to explain to his good brother Huang Aotian.

Be cautious in everything and never take it lightly.

So, Yun Zhonghe circled the streets and alleys of Tianhai City alone, quietly confirming the tracking scale of the Chen family's stalkers.

After some patient observation and testing, Yun Zhonghe felt that he had enough understanding of the Chen family's surveillance efforts. It was time to end this boring "walk" and go home.

The night was as dark as ink, silently enveloping the entire Tianhai City. The lanterns on both sides of the street lit up one by one, casting a hazy and mysterious veil over this ancient city.

The number of pedestrians gradually decreased, with only a few still insisting on walking in the night.

Recently, rumors of vicious assaults have been spreading more and more in Tianhai City. Some say that humanoid monsters are roaming at night, while others say that eight-foot female ghosts are wandering the streets. There are many different versions, but they all make people feel scared.

Therefore, whenever night falls, people rush home and try not to stay outside.

Basically, those who are still walking outside at this moment are some capable cultivators, most of whom are at the foundation-building level.

Yun Zhonghe walked on the empty street, scanning his surroundings with sharp eyes, and was secretly alert in his heart. He noticed the Chen family stalker who never left his side, and couldn't help laughing in his heart. This guy was really dedicated to the extreme and refused to give up even at this late hour.

Yun Zhonghe pretended not to care and continued walking.

However, at this moment, Yun Zhonghe suddenly stopped.

All the senses reached an unprecedented level of sharpness at this moment.

Within the range of his spiritual detection, he instantly captured a hint of unusual fluctuations!

This aura was extremely strange and carried an indescribable eerie feeling, exactly the same as the feeling when the female ghost tried to sneak into his room last night, which made people shudder!

Yun Zhonghe's eyes instantly focused, as if they could penetrate the night. He quickly and decisively looked in the direction of investigation, staring directly at the unknown source of fear.

There is a deep alley on the left. At the other end of the alley, in the dim light, there seems to be a figure standing vaguely. The figure in white clothes is particularly eye-catching in the night, but it appears hazy due to the darkness of the surrounding environment.

There was no light deep in the alley, but strangely, the woman in white seemed to be shrouded in an inexplicable dark light, which highlighted her figure.

so big!

The two plump fruits almost burst through the clothes, showing an incredible and spectacular size, making people wonder if their eyes are having an illusion.

The woman's clothes seemed incomplete, with large areas of skin exposed. Her skin was so pale that it was almost transparent. Her long black hair fell like a waterfall, covering her face and leaving only a hint of mystery and weirdness.

She has a very plump figure and has the charm of a mature woman.

She just stood there straight, motionless, like a sculpture, yet gave people the illusion that she was staring at Yun Zhonghe.

That's right, she was staring at her closely. Although Yun Zhonghe couldn't see her eyes clearly, although Yun Zhonghe couldn't see her eyes through the layer of black hair, the strong sense of sight was as real as reality, which made him feel creepy.

Every cell in my body tensed up at this moment, and the chill rushed from the soles of my feet to the top of my head. It was like being in a scene from a horror movie, unable to extricate myself.

Damn, what a huge R Sadako...

Yun Zhonghe was at least a powerful man who could rival the Golden Core, and he could even fight against the Nascent Soul. He had seen the world, but he had never felt such a strong chill as he did at this moment.

Could this... be the eight-foot-tall female ghost that was rumored?!

He was secretly shocked and his eyes were fixed on the direction of the woman in white. However, after careful observation, he found that the woman's height did not match the rumored eight feet. Instead, she was only about 1.7 meters tall, which is the height of a normal woman.

However, this could not eliminate the doubts in his heart. After all, the ghosts in legends often could not be judged by common sense.

Yun Zhonghe moved his fingertips lightly, and accompanied by a crisp sword sound, the Xueyun Sword was automatically unsheathed, like a silver lightning that cut through the night sky, and finally fell steadily into his hands.

He took a deep breath and stepped into the deep alley without hesitation, determined to find out what was going on.

"Hey, what on earth are you..."

He just opened his mouth and wanted to ask about the identity of the woman in white, but suddenly he found that the light and shadow around the woman flashed, and then, such a pair of big breasts - oh no, to be precise, such a plump woman, seemed to be swallowed by space, and disappeared from his sight without a trace.

This scene happened too quickly, too fast, as if a frame had been taken out of time. Without any sign or preparation, the woman disappeared out of thin air.

Yun Zhonghe was stunned and horrified. He quickly used his skills and chased after him like a ghost.

He was extremely fast and in the blink of an eye he had reached the place where the woman had just disappeared. However, no matter how he looked left and right or how carefully he sensed everything around him, he could not catch any trace of the woman.

"Xueyun Sword, did you see it just now?"

Yun Zhonghe felt increasingly uneasy, and couldn't help but check with the Xueyun Sword in his hand.

The blade of the Snow Cloud Sword hummed softly: [Master, I just saw it too, its movements are so fast.]

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhonghe couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his cheeks due to nervousness, and muttered to himself: "What on earth is that? It can't be a female ghost."

In this world, ghosts and monsters are not fictional, but real and exist.
