and escaped. Now he's still probably hiding in some ditch somewhere.""That... What grudge do you have against each other Why is he called the Ghost King How many Ghost Kings are there in the Underworl...When it came to worldly affairs, Jiang Qiyun rarely spoke at length, only hinting at the gist.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Yu Guimin keenly felt the mood in the room. She grabbed Jiang Qiyun's collar and acted coquettishly: "Father, the teacher said that children need to sunbathe. Let's go sunbathe, shall we"

This little guy must be cold enough to have goosebumps.

I was so cold I wanted to rub my arms, but I felt embarrassed to do it in front of Jiang Qiyun.

After breaking the awkward silence, Jiang Qiyun held her in one arm and extended a finger to Younan, leading both children out.

I and my brother quickly went to tell grandpa what had happened recently. Grandpa, after hearing that we were going to use the Soul Tower, gave us a cold look: "What Are you going to use it to save outsiders Do you not care about your grandmother's life or death"

Grandma has been dead for many years…

That's too heavy a topic for me to respond to.

My brother tactfully said: "This... it's a bit old-fashioned, we have two people to call the soul, and we need two ghost instruments. We only have one now. Instead of searching for another like finding a needle in a haystack, why not borrow one from our own family first... You know Lin Yanhuan's identity, the longer he stays put, the more pressure the Shen family and the Mu family will face."

“In this situation, who knows Maybe one day, whether it’s a rival or some sinister forces, they could suddenly cause trouble. The pressure would then come crashing down on us both, and neither of our families could withstand it... If we were to really have an inventory of assets, do you think in today's world, this Soul-Calming Pagoda could still be preserved”

The old man furrowed his brow deeply. Society today was far different from the tumultuous times of old. Now, the state held immense power, and technology advanced at a rapid pace. It would be extremely difficult to conceal oneself or any treasure.

“So, Grandpa, just think about it. What's our relationship with Lin Yanhuan He's both family and a good friend. Protecting him means he'll protect us too, making it less likely that we'll attract the attention of the authorities. " My brother advised: “Besides, this is a matter of life and death. Little Qiao has also told her husband to please turn a blind eye to this situation and not come to collect her soul... Her husband loves her very much and usually agrees with whatever she wants. So you can rest assured.”

I gave my brother a look. How could he just talk to Grandpa like that This is embarrassing!

The old master didn't take my brother's words, instead he looked at me with a heavy gaze and said in a low voice: "Although immortals are not as obsessed with worldly desires as ordinary people, they are still different from common folk... The myriad affairs of the world can't stir up any ripples in their hearts. Although Xiao Qiao has received the favor of the divine, she cannot rely on it arrogantly. If she loses her original intention and only thinks about the protection of the divine, she might invite disaster."

“Given Qiao’er's temperament, do you think she would become arrogant and proud” My brother saw that Grandpa was a little unhappy, so he hurriedly comforted him: “Qiao’er is cautious and gentle. You don't need to worry about her offending celestial beings… On the contrary, many people are now waiting to see Qiao’er make a fool of herself. It's inevitable that some people will trip her up behind her back and wait to take advantage of her misfortune.”

The old man furrowed his brow in thought for a moment, then whispered, "As for Ah Chi's matter, I don't want to get involved, but you can't ignore it...In this society, trouble will find you, which means you've been targeted...As for borrowing the Soul Suppressing Tower, I need to think about it...Your great-grandmother has no anchor. I'm worried something might happen."

I don't want anything to happen to Taigong. Although he and Taiye use this unconventional way to depend on each other, they have been together for so many years after all. Taiye is also in his twilight years, and I don't know when the two will be reunited and go to the underworld.

For the rest of my days, I also hope for a peaceful and calm life.

"Grandfather, if there's no safe way to place Grandmother, then... we shouldn't borrow the Soul Tower. I'll continue to search for other whereabouts of the Six Extremities Ghost Artifacts," I said in a low voice.

"Oh... foolish girl, you're searching The news has already spread. Do you think people inside the circle won't look for it" The old man shook his head. "They not only will look, but if they find it, they'll hide it. They'll either use it to blackmail you or deliberately let this matter drag you down, destroying the reputation and fame of the Shen family, even scattering the sect."

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, at the beginning, I also thought you would come to find me... But, privately, I was unwilling to lend it out. This is not an ordinary magic weapon, it's the treasure that allows your great-grandmother to stay here. Other things don't matter, just this one, I can't let go easily."

I pursed my lips and looked at my brother. He snorted, "It's only because of you that we're being so polite and borrowing from you. If it were anyone else, I would have found a way to take it away a long time ago..."

"You little rascal, do you dare to have designs on me" Grandfather pretended to be angry and tapped his cane.

My brother smiled and apologized, but he secretly shot me a look.

"If you can't reason with Grandfather here, try speaking to Grandmother."

My great-grandmother is a true gentle and elegant lady, kind and soft-hearted. I wouldn't want anything to harm her, not even in the slightest.

My brother pulled me outside and whispered, "There's no way to please both sides! Lin Yanhuan and Chen Yan are still lying there. Aren't you worried You're so anxious that your face is covered in worry clouds. Jiang Qiyun also finds it hard to say anything about you. If you keep looking so troubled, I guess he won't be happy either."

"

‘He's already unhappy…,’ I whispered.

"

“As a cultivator, you are burdened with worries. How can you be happy Things have been so chaotic lately that it's giving me chills. This mysterious person who came to Arch is definitely targeting us. The top priority is to wake up Lin Yanhua and Chen Yan as soon as possible. Otherwise, the entire circle will be plotting against us behind our backs, and we won't be able to defend ourselves!”

"I know... but Grandmother... if Grandmother were to happen something, what about Grandfather" I said anxiously.

"There's definitely risk, but delaying only breeds more problems. The sooner we resolve Shen Family's predicament and get the Soul Suppression Tower back, the better." My brother frowned.

"But even if we get the Soul Suppressing Tower and combine it with the Soul Lamp in our hands, I don't know how to do it…"

“You don’t need to understand! Didn’t you hear the implication in Cheng Banxian’s words He told us about these two things, he must know how to use them! And he was originally a ‘ghost doctor’ who escaped from the Underworld. He wouldn’t dare to say it too clearly, revealing the secrets of the underworld artifacts, but he definitely knows! At that time, we’ll just soft-soap him and threaten him with benefits, he’ll definitely get it done.”

My brother saw that I was still looking at him with disappointment.

Maybe I'm just too indecisive, always afraid of hurting anyone. When faced with a dilemma, I get a little flustered and lost.

"...Huh Where's your husband and kids" My brother suddenly noticed that Yu Gui's laughter was missing from the front yard, so he quickly turned his head to look around.

The gate stood ajar, and beyond it lay an expanse of open land and fields. There was no sign of Jiang Qiyun or the children.

I was a little flustered and hurriedly called Aunt Zhang to ask. Aunt Zhang whispered, "Just now, I saw that esteemed deity following the little master who was skipping and playing towards the back garden..."

The backyard

The courtyard of this large mansion is the residence of the grandfather, and within this courtyard, there is an entrance to a secret chamber leading to the tomb..My disciples from the Shen family were still standing diligently outside the gate, they were also a bit frightened. Seeing me, they immediately came up and asked, "Patriarch, the energy field was in...
