He looked at the large, burly men closing in around him, and cold sweat started to trickle down his temples. "I don't know about any vengeful spirit, but someone did come! It was that very pretty female celebrity, Yu Yuan! Zhou Yu and Tang Xiangbei both call her Master. Apart from us, she's the only one who came!"

"Yu Yuan?" Master Fang narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning dangerously cold. "That name... I feel like I've heard it before at the Celestial Master Hall..."

"Master," seeing his son's life slipping away, Third Master Lu couldn't help but interrupt Master Fang's thoughts, "My son..."

"She's the one!" Master Fang finally remembered who Yu Yuan was.

It was her who intercepted the Celestial Master Hall's mission last night!

It was actually her...

When Master Fang realized that it was this Yu Yuan who had taken away the fierce ghost from the school, his brows furrowed tightly, and his expression was not good.

The one responsible for always intercepting the missions in Shan City was this Yu Yuan.

According to the records provided by the association, in recent days, this Yu Yuan had been gaining a lot of attention. Despite being a blacklisted celebrity with a bad reputation, she had suddenly transformed into some kind of master who could read qi.

But in his opinion, what kind of skill could a celebrity who relied on her looks have? Those things that were being spread as miraculous were either scripts commonly used within the industry or Yu Yuan had someone powerful behind her.

If it was the former, there was nothing to worry about, but if it was the latter...

Master Fang quickly drew a yellow talisman for Lu Yan and hurried to his junior brother's house. When he arrived at his junior brother's residence, his nephew came out with a troubled expression, bowed, and said, "Uncle, I'm really sorry to trouble you with a wasted trip. My master was injured yesterday and hasn't woken up yet. If it's not urgent, could you please come back tomorrow?"

"Injured yesterday and still not awake today?" Master Fang was already in a bad mood, and now he was directly upset, "Who did this! Doesn't that person know your master is my junior brother, and I'm the branch leader of the Shan City Celestial Master Hall?!"

"Well..." His junior nephew looked troubled, "Last night, my master went out with a painting, and I didn't follow, so I'm not clear on the details..."

When Master Fang heard the words "a painting," his face immediately darkened.

He immediately waved his hand to interrupt his nephew's long explanation, snapping, "Enough, what use are you if you don't know anything! Hurry up and take me to see your master! If I hadn't come today, wouldn't your master be killed by you, his disciple?!"

His nephew quickly stepped back two paces, lowering his head and not daring to look up. "Uncle, this way please."

Shan City was filled with towering peaks, and Zhou Yu's guesthouse was built on a small hill.

This small hill was a local attraction, though it was off-season now, so not many people visited.

The guesthouse was located on the mountainside, surrounded by dense trees, giving off a faint spiritual aura.

Yu Yuan stood in the courtyard of the guesthouse, feeling as if the accumulated frustration of the past few days had been soothed by the spiritual energy in the air.

"This is indeed a good place."

"Master, you think so too!" Zhou Yu shoved aside Tang Xiangbei, who didn't want to leave, and rubbed his hands like a fly. "I think so too! When I first saw this guesthouse, I knew it was the one! When I bought it, there were some people around who made sarcastic comments, saying it was haunted or something. But I ignored them and got this place! Now, it seems like this is my fortune!"

He had bought this guesthouse only two weeks ago. In that short time, it had helped him make a connection with a powerful master, and wasn't that his lucky charm!

Zhou Yu raised his chin, his pride nearly overflowing from his eyes.

Tang Xiangbei's expression changed several times. When Zhou Yu looked at him, he couldn't hold back, "So the sucker who bought the haunted guesthouse is you, huh?"

Zhou Yu: "...What sucker? Can you talk properly?"

Tang Xiangbei had finally found a way to poke fun at his pride, "This guesthouse has been haunted since it was built. Not only the people in Shan City know, but even tourists from other places are aware! Master Yu, you really should think twice before staying in such a place!"

Zhou Yu immediately got angry, "Tang kid, watch how you speak!"

Yu Yuan raised an eyebrow, visibly in a good mood, "Haunted here?"

"Yeah, yeah!" Tang Xiangbei nodded vigorously like a chicken pecking at rice. "Master, I'm telling the truth! Everyone around here knows this place isn't clean! Why don't you take a look at my house? It's in the city center, prime land, worthy of our ancestor!"

"Our ancestor couldn't handle such a noisy environment."

Yu Yuan smiled and politely declined, her gaze slipping to the corner of the wall. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she crouched down, waving at the empty space beside her.

Tang Xiangbei followed Yu Yuan's gaze and looked over. In the distance, the wall corner was weathered and messy, with wild grass growing everywhere. There was nothing there.

Even though he knew Master Yu's eyes were different from regular people's, in broad daylight, he still felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. A mix of fear and curiosity washed over him.

Zhou Yu's face turned pale for a moment. After hesitating, he mustered up the courage to approach Yu Yuan. "Master, what's over there?"

"Nothing," Yu Yuan picked up the little wooden demon running toward her. "Just some newly-formed spirit creatures."

She poked the little wooden demon's belly with her finger, and the small, pure-white creature grabbed her fingertip.

It seemed that the faint spiritual energy in the area had led to the birth of some little spirit creatures over time.

The little wooden demon, resembling a small white radish with a tuft of leaves on top, sensed the powerful spiritual energy around Yu Yuan. Stumbling over, it seemed to report something.

Using its tiny claws, which were almost too small to notice, it pointed at Zhou Yu, then at itself, and finally at the dense forest behind it. Afterward, it collapsed, rolling on the ground and sticking out its tongue in a playful gesture, rolling around in the palm of Yu Yuan's hand.

"Are you saying that all the people coming and going at this guesthouse are disturbing your sleep?"
