▶▶ Master Hou Madam Went To the Sky Bridge Again To Set Up a Stall
At the moment the secret room's door closed, a brilliant golden light filled the room.
Dazzling and sacred radiance emerged from the Buddha bead tightly held in Third Master's hand.
The golden light penetrated through the crack in the door, making it difficult for Hou Chuan and Ling Xuzi, who stood at the doorway, to see inside.
Upon hearing movement from inside, both of them let out a sigh of relief.
Ling Xuzi furrowed his brows and slowly relaxed them, saying, "Let's wait upstairs and hope that Third Young Master will come out tomorrow."
"Indeed!" Hou Chuan stared at the tightly shut door, his tone slightly grave.
With Third Young Master being calculated right under their noses, even the Hou family's secret guards would find it hard to escape responsibility this time.
Hou Chuan and Ling Xuzi left the basement with thoughts weighing heavily on their minds.
Returning to the spacious living room, Huo Chuan asked Ling Xuzi, "Third Master didn't have direct contact with anyone, and even his meals were screened layer by layer. How could he still be manipulated?"
Ling Xuzi tidied his blood-stained Tang suit and spoke in a deep voice, "It may be because Third Young Master encountered someone from the Yin-Yang Sect this time."
Hou Chuan looked puzzled, a hint of murderous intent appearing on his face. "The Yin-Yang Sect?"
Ling Xuzi furrowed his brow, his expression somewhat grim. "It's a sect from the Southern Seas. They primarily focus on cultivating demonic energy and have dealings with demons throughout their sect. Most of their people offer sacrifices to demons in exchange for great power, which is different from the malevolent energy we Xuanmen practitioners often come into contact with."
Huo Chuan remembered a few years ago when Third Young Master was surrounded by nearly a hundred wizards in the United States. It was the mysterious power on his body that forced them to retreat, resulting in over half of the wizards being killed or injured.
During that incident, Third Master also fell into a coma.
Because there wasn't enough time to return to the country, they left Third Young Master alone in the room and strictly forbade anyone from entering.
The next day, Third Master regained consciousness and walked out of the room.
This time, encountering demonic energy, could they still wait for Third Young Master to emerge from the secret room unharmed?
Hou Chuan's expression wasn't very good. "How dangerous is the demonic energy to Third Young Master?"
Ling Xuzi shook his head. "It's still unclear. Third Young Master was manipulated this time, and it should be related to him removing the Buddha bead."
The Buddha bead was crucial to Third Young Master. It was his life-saving treasure, a companion born with him.
Huo Chuan recalled the various details that happened at the Nangong family and said in a low voice, "When Master Xu wanted to harm Madam and Third Master removed the Buddha bead to block him, there was no physical contact between them."
Without any physical contact, Hou Chuan couldn't understand how Third Young Master was manipulated.
"Let's wait until Third Young Master wakes up tomorrow to discuss it further. The situation is not favorable this time. Third Master hasn't entered the secret room for many years, and if this continues, his already not-so-long lifespan will..." Ling Xuzi shook his head gently, unable to continue his words.
Hou Chuan could sense the unspoken words behind his statement.
Qin Ruan and Hou Yirong walked in and overheard Ling Xuzi and Hou Chuan's conversation.
"Is Third Young Master alone in the dark room? Can I go in?" Qin Ruan worried about Hou Yunjiao injuries.
"No, you can't!"
Ling Xu Zi, Hou Chuan, and Hou Yirong almost simultaneously voiced their disagreement.
Qin Ruan frowned, her expression not looking good. "Why not?"
Ling Xu Zi and Hou Chuan didn't explain, but Hou Yirong gently said to Qin Ruan, "Third Brother's condition is special. No one is allowed near him when he is in the dark room. Sister, be patient for one more night, maybe Third Brother will come out tomorrow, and you'll be able to see him then."
Qin Ruan was still worried, recalling the scene where Third Lord coughed up blood. Her heart felt as if it was being pricked by needles, not excessively painful but enough to be distressing.
Suppressing the discomfort in her heart, she asked with concern, "Are you sure it's safe to leave Third Lord alone in the dark room? Won't there be any problems?"
"No, if someone disturbs him in the dark room, that's when problems will arise."
After Huo Yi Rong finished speaking, she beckoned to the men behind her, who were holding onto Master Xu.
The Hou family's secret guards, who were dragging Master Xu, threw him carelessly into the hall.
Master Xu's tongue had been cut, rendering him unable to speak properly. The blood that stained his mouth was not as horrifying as before, but he still looked disheveled.
Hou Yirong pointed at the agonizing and sobbing Master Xu on the ground and asked Qin Ruan, "Sister, what do you plan to do with this person?"
Qin Ruan's dim eyes stared fixedly at Master Xu. "Kill him!"
Her voice was cold, and her words were merciless.
Hou Yirong's handsome face momentarily twisted, filled with confusion. "You brought him back just to kill him?"
It would be better to leave him at the Nangong family and let them clean up this mess.
Qin Ruan raised her eyes and looked at Huo Yi Rong as if he were a fool. "If I don't kill him, how will I find out from his mouth when Third Young Master was schemed against?"
Ling Xu Zi's face showed disapproval, and he spoke to advise her. "Friend Qin, killing someone will bear karmic consequences. You should consider it carefully."
Qin Ruan couldn't help but sneer at his words. "Third Master was schemed against, and he coughed up blood right under my nose. You want me to consider it carefully? Why didn't they consider it carefully when they plotted against him?"
She stared directly into Ling Xu Zi's eyes, exuding a chilling aura. Even the thin summer fabric couldn't withstand her icy gaze.
Though their encounter was brief, Ling Xu Zi clearly saw that Qin Ruan appeared meek on the surface but was actually a ruthless woman inside.
Her ruthlessness wasn't exposed, but when her anger ignited, a powerful and chilling aura emanated from her.
Seeing Qin Ruan's resolute attitude, Ling Xu Zi knew he couldn't stop her and shook his head gently.
Qin Ruan walked toward Master Xu, and in his terrified gaze, she reached out and grabbed his neck.
Her eyes flashed with a sinister and ruthless danger, as if she wanted to tear him apart.
Qin Ruan increased the pressure on her grip, her voice cold. "I gave you a chance before, now go to hell!"
A wicked curve formed on her crimson lips, and her exquisite face showed indifference, as if she
despised all living beings in the world.
"Mmm...!"
Master Xu struggled with all his might, but he couldn't escape Qin Ruan's grasp, not even by a hair's breadth.
In Qin Ruan's hands, Master Xu was like a lamb being slaughtered, his life rapidly fading away.
Xu Zhenren couldn't breathe, his bloodied face twisted and ferocious.
However, before Qin Ruan could deliver a fatal blow to Xu Zhenren, his eyes rolled back, revealing fear and resentment.
In Qin Ruan's astonished gaze, Xu Zhenren instantly lost his breath.
The onlookers in the hall thought that Qin Ruan had killed Xu Zhenren.
Only Ling Xuzi noticed something and his well-maintained face showed shock.
He quickly approached Qin Ruan and the lifeless Xu Zhenren.
Ling Xuzi's hand rested on Xu Zhenren's neck, but there was no movement.
Xu Zhenren was dead, thoroughly dead.
Qin Ruan's eyes were gloomy, her delicate face extremely unsightly, filled with a chilling aura as she looked down at Xu Zhenren's lifeless body and coldly said, word by word, "I didn't kill him."
Her tone was calm, a statement.
Ling Xuzi looked at Qin Ruan with a complex expression and nodded, "I understand. It was the Yin Yang Sect who made a move."
"The Yin Yang Sect?"
Qin Ruan, like before with Hou Chuan, was unfamiliar with the South Yang Yin Yang Sect.
Ling Xuzi repeated what he had said to Hou Chuan, once again explaining it to Qin Ruan.
After he finished speaking, he lowered his gaze and stared at Xu Zhenren's corpse, speculating, "This person is already dead. It's very likely that the Nangong family feared we would find out something and sought the help of the Yin Yang Sect."
"I have had dealings with the Yin Yang Sect. Every disciple of their sect possesses a life token. The life token is used by the sect to control the lives of their disciples. If something happens to a disciple who is cultivating outside, it can be relayed to the Yin Yang Sect through the life token."
Learning of Xu Zhenren's death, which was likely caused by something the Nangong family did, Qin Ruan stared at the body beneath her feet, her eyes neither smiling nor frowning.
Her ink-like eyes were filled with anger and a wicked aura. "Even if he's dead, I will extract the truth from his mouth!"
Being able to injure Third Young Master right under her nose, Qin Ruan had to investigate thoroughly and find out the reasons.
To prevent a similar incident from happening again.
Qin Ruan activated her Heavenly Eye and searched for Xu Zhenren's soul within the room.
For a recently deceased person, their spirit and soul would still linger in the mortal realm. They wouldn't be taken away by the underworld's ghosts so quickly.
Qin Ruan's irises radiated a faint golden light, emanating an immense pressure.
Her delicate face showed a fierce and ruthless expression as her eyes scanned the hall, but she couldn't find Xu Zhenren's soul.
Hou Yirong stepped forward curiously and asked, "Little sister, what are you looking for?"
Qin Ruan replied in a deep voice, "I'm looking for Xu Zhenren's soul!"
She searched every corner of the living room but couldn't find Xu Zhenren's spirit. It left her perplexed.
The reason she brought Xu Zhenren back from the Nangong family was to extract the truth from him about how they plotted against Third Young Master.
Now that the person was dead and his soul couldn't be found, it seemed like all her efforts were in vain.
How can Qin Ruan be willing? She tightly clenched her fists.
Suddenly, a proud and cold smile appeared on her face, and a chilling aura emanated from her.
The bone-chilling coldness expanded infinitely, oppressing everyone present.
Hou Yirong, who was closest to Qin Ruan, couldn't help but touch her sleeve, revealing the skin on her forearm.
The air grew strangely colder, giving off an indescribable sense of gloom.
Qin Ruan closed her eyes tightly and parted her red lips, saying, "The Ten Halls of Yama command me to kill demons, with my divine methods, to drive my slaughter. What god can't bow down, what ghost dares to challenge? The Ten Halls of Yama urgently decree!"
Ling Xu Zi, who was standing beside her, couldn't maintain a calm expression with each word Qin Ruan uttered.
He stared at Qin Ruan with wide eyes, his face showing a mixture of shock, surprise, and horror. "The command of the Ten Halls of Yama!"
No one present knew about the command of the Ten Halls of Yama. They only felt their bodies surrounded by a chilling aura and wanted to escape from this place.
However, their feet felt heavy, making it impossible for them to move.
They were like acupoints being sealed, unable to budge from their original positions.
A powerful and chilling aura pervaded the living room, stronger and colder than any previous time Qin Ruan had summoned messengers from the netherworld.
Ling Xu Zi, Hou Yirong, Hou Chuan, Hou Zhi, and others were enveloped in a dense black mist.
They were trapped in the black and cold mist, unable to see anything clearly, only hearing the sound of chains dragging in the darkness.
The sound was eerie and eerie, sending a shiver down one's spine from the depths of their soul.
It was as if they were surrounded by the breath of death. Intense coldness surged up their backs, causing involuntary goosebumps.
"Miss Qin, what's happening?"
Two tall figures emerged from the darkness.
