By the river.
The tourists had already been driven away, and the burned-out pleasure boat had already sunk to the bottom of the river.
A team of martial artists patrolled the river.
The few of them stood by the river and discussed softly.
A martial artist’s vitality was exuberant. It was difficult for mortals to see it with the naked eye. They could only sense the other party’s terrifying aura.
However, Luo Qingzhou’s soul could see it clearly.
The Qi and blood congregated like a burning sea of fire, dyeing the darkness by the river red.
Even though he was still far from them, his soul trembled involuntarily.
No wonder the book said that when people traveled in groups, the ghosts would avoid them. Wherever an army went, ghosts and gods would be startled.
With thousands of soldiers and horses gathered together, even from afar, one could feel a vigorous aura. Even the soul experts mentioned in the books would have to avoid them.
Luo Qingzhou did not dare to approach. He stopped at an eaves and waited patiently.
An hour later.
The figures who were discussing some matters by the river gradually
dispersed.
The patrolling martial artists also escorted one of them and left together.
Soon, silence returned to the river.
Luo Qingzhou waited for a while more before floating over.
The riverside was empty.
A pungent smell of burning still lingered in the air. It was a warm and unpleasant odor.
Luo Qingzhou floated toward the river.
He stared at the sunken boat in midair and searched carefully for a while, but he did not find the souls of the corpses.
Perhaps the souls had already dissipated in the flames, or perhaps they had already drifted elsewhere.
“Forget it, ” he thought.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly recalled a sentence recorded in the book. After a person had just died and a soul left its body, it would subconsciously drift toward the place with the densest Yin energy or which was the darkest place in the surroundings. Then, the ghost would keep looking at the place where it had died and be unwilling to leave for a long time…
Luo Qingzhou’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately floated higher and lowered his head to look down at the river.
When a person was in the Out of Body state, they were most sensitive to places with heavy Yin energy.
There were many people gathered by the river just now. The voices were noisy and the blood and Qi were vigorous. After the souls came out of the corpses, they would subconsciously avoid the area and drift to the nearby places that had dense Yin energy.
Luo Qingzhou searched carefully in midair, and his gaze suddenly stopped under the arched bridge a hundred meters to the left of the river.
In his vision, there were wisps of black Yin energy floating under the dark hole of the arched bridge. They gathered into an orb and were floating in midair as if they were alive.
The sun and moon did not shine under the arched bridge. Hence, it was damp and dark. Because children and adults drowned in the river almost every summer, the Yin energy there was rich. It was the most suitable place for ghosts to hide.
Luo Qingzhou quickly floated over.
However, before he could get close, he felt a familiar aura.
Under the arched bridge, a cold wind blew and black fog filled the air.
What heavy Yin energy!
Luo Qingzhou floated straight in.
A scream suddenly sounded in the darkness under the bridge.
As soon as Luo Qingzhou crawled under the bridge, he suddenly saw a black shadow floating in front of him and almost bumped into it.
Upon closer inspection, it was blurry. Luo Qingzhou recognized this to be the ghost of the maidservant who had been hiding at the door with a dagger in her hand previously, preparing to ambush him.
At this moment, the maidservant had completely lost all her memories from before. It flickered with a milky white light and fluorescence. It seemed to have sensed his powerful and terrifying aura, so it was caught off guard and screamed in fear.
Luo Qingzhou did not hesitate at all. Just like how he had killed her in the room previously, he clenched his fists and suddenly punched her.
“Pfft!”
Her already blurry body was instantly shattered.
Then, her soul dissipated!
Luo Qingzhou was already in the Day Travel stage. His soul was powerful, and he had cultivated the Thunder Fist. How could a ghost that had just left its body withstand such a punch?
Just as the ghost was killed, another scream suddenly sounded from the dark corner below.
Luo Qingzhou looked over and saw the figure curled up in a corner, trembling. It was the old woman who had hurt Second Young Miss Qin!
Back in the room, she was aggressive with all might and power. Now, she was hiding here like a pitiful rat, trembling non-stop.
Without any hesitation, Luo Qingzhou floated down and shattered her soul with a punch.
At this moment, a cold wind suddenly rose from the side.
The two black shadows fled in panic.
On a closer look, one of them was a maidservant, and the other was the young lady of the Song family.
The two ghosts subconsciously sensed danger, and they fled in the same direction.
That direction was where they had died.
However, with their speed, how could they escape Luo Qingzhou’s pursuit?
In a flash, Luo Qingzhou had already caught up to Song Zixi and punched her in the back with all his might!
“Pfft!”
Her soul dissipated and turned into nothingness.
In a breath’s time, Luo Qingzhou caught up to the other ghost and exterminated it.
After exterminating those ghosts, Luo Qingzhou finally felt relieved.
He floated into the air and was about to leave when he suddenly realized that a few figures had suddenly appeared by the riverbank where the pleasure boat had burned.
Two figures stood by the river and spoke in low voices.
A few maidservants were standing not far away, and a few guards were also standing seven to eight meters away. They looked around vigilantly. The few guards had vigorous Qi and blood. They were also martial artists.
However, from the looks of it, they were not very powerful.
With Luo Qingzhou’s soul being at the Day Travel stage, he was naturally not afraid of them..
