Wan Li returned around noon.
Xiao Xia had bring this to you. He handed a piece of paper to Ruan Zhan.
Ruan Zhan only took a glance before putting it down.
What?
Its the sa person. Ruan Zhan said. The person who casted the dreamkill spell is the registered owner of entertainnt city.
This ans the Flower Society isnt using the place as a front. They are one and the sa.
Definitely. He picked up the docunt and took another look. The registration date drew his attention. Entertainnt city was transferred to.Yang Mu Youonly two months ago. That man with the sinister smile was called Yang Mu You.
Really? The owner only changed after you upped and left. Didnt Xiao Xia say the previous owner only left because it was haunted? Wan Li said. But according to your words yesterday, it seems this Yang.
Yang Mu You.
Right, this Yang Mu You purposefully manipulated the spirits so he could occupy the place.
The owner only changed after I left. Ruan Zhan pondered this fact. Could this matter have sothing to do with him?
Didnt you know? I thought Xiao Xia told you. However, even if the owner had changed long ago, you probably wouldnt know. You dont get involved much in other peoples business.
Only two months. It developed really quickly.
Thats right, it just popped up out of nowhere. Its really a little weird now you think about it. Wan Li was partly impressed. This person is really a master of manipulation. Hes really good at leading people astray. To make so many intelligent won all thoroughly worship him in such a short period of ti.
He rely used these wons emptiness and loneliness. Thats why those three brothers are the key to this.
Thats right. But they seem to have vanished. How should we find them?
We dont have any leads for now. I also have to think things over so more. Now that youve completed the task Xiao Xia gave you, you can scram back to playing the wicked doctor.
Thats not the main reason I ca back. It was just in passing. Wan Li suddenly grew solemn. I want to tell you sothing without letting Xiao Xia know.
What is it? Ruan Zhan frowned. He knew although Wan Li usually fooled around, he was never sloppy. He wouldnt be so serious for no reason. What did you discover?
Hong Hao Hao.
Hong Hao Hao? Is that woman suspicious?
Dont play dumb. You shouldve noticed it too. Otherwise, why would you be so interested in her yesterday? Others may not understand you, but I do. Although she was very beautiful, its not to the extent to make you stare.
I just felt she isnt ordinary. She also has that new house feeling. Ruan Zhan recalled the matter from last night and kept feeling sothing off about Hong Hao Hao. However, there wasnt anything concrete. Did you see sothing?
If there really was sothing, that woman had concealed it too well. Or the person behind her was too skilled.
I didnt see anything. I heard it. Ive heard her voice before. It was that day when we were attacked by the zombie. She was the one outside the morgue who set up the boundary. Wan Li revealed his discovery.
This unexpected clue made Ruan Zhan blank out for a mont. Light suddenly dawned in his mind, shining through his tangled thoughts. He looked at Wan Li. Are you certain?
I wasnt last night, but now I am. He had felt sothing was wrong after listening to Hong Hao Hao sing and leave, but couldnt put his finger on it. He hadnt been able to sleep soundly the entire night, until he finally had this epiphany while he was semiconscious. Only after repeatedly going through it in his mind in the morning was he certain.
You should know a persons hearing is harder to be mistaken than sight. He said.
Ruan Zhan nodded. Part of the confusion was suddenly clarified.
This is a very important clue. This ans shes part of the Flower Society, and might also be Yang Mu Yous capable subordinate. She can also use so spells. He made a prompt decision. I will follow her tonight.
Going to look for Yang Mu You directly? Wan Li was a little worried. From what you said, he doesnt seem easy to deal with.
No, I will first scout out his abilities. Ruan Zhan said. To tell you the truth, we t within the dreamkill spell. We didnt exchange blows, but I felt that if we fought head on I may not be able to win.
Hearing him say he wasnt imdiately going to go risk his life, Wan Li let out a breath. Its another boss-level opponent. Why do you keep encountering such experts the mont you made your coback? Cant you randomly deal with so minor ghosts for once? Must we always see you in a sorry state? Cant you look valiant and let people drool over you?
You make it sound so easy you bastard. Dont you realize how much trouble that little white shirt of yours gets into?
My little white shirt? She seems to like you more.
Wan Lis words made Ruan Zhan stop in his tracks. Dont talk nonsense. His heart suspiciously missed a beat. Im only helping her for your sake. Also, Im sure you know how shaless she can be.
If only it was nonsense. Wan Li grumbled quietly. Alright, thats all I had to say. Didnt dare tell you over the phone in case soone was eavesdropping.
Then quickly scram.
I do have to scram back to work. Im not like so fortune teller who can make big bucks by randomly fooling others. Wan Li didnt forget to attack Ruan Zhan. You should at least act the part. Go fix the ghost-warding formation, ok?
Its already fixed. Took the entire morning. Yan Mu You used a rather clever thod.
As expected, it was him.
Who else would it be? He had to break the protection here to better use the dreamkill spell. Ruan Zhan pointed at the potted peach tree as he spoke. The peach blossoms were unusually blooming.
This used to be the eye of my formation. Peach trees are the most evil-warding objects. I didnt expect him to water it with sothing weird, turning the flowers into demonic objects. Take a sniff.
Wan Li leaned in with his nose. Theres a sll of blood.
Looks like your nose isnt worse than a dogs. Ruan Zhan deadpanned. Im guessing its a mixture of his and Xiao Xias blood, along with so enchanted water. This made it easier for him to enter her dreams.
Where did he get Xiao Xias blood? Wan Li was puzzled, thinking with his head lowered.
Gradually, a thought ford in his mind, giving him a huge shock. Could they have been targeting Xiao Xia before the Bloody Mary case from last ti was over? So thats why Xiao Xia got mugged, and Hong Hao Hao happened to be nearby, kindheartedly helping stem her bleeding?
That bit of blood wouldnt be enough! Do you rember how her wound seed to have been bitten by sothing? Theres a kind of sinister spell that uses maggots to create bloodsucking leeches. Im guessing Hong Hao Hao must have used this kind of specially created leeches while helping stem Xiao Xias blood. She was actually sucking her blood instead. As he spoke, Ruan Zhan recalled the situation back then and felt a slight sting in his heart. Those things burrow into the flesh when they see blood. No wonder she was in such pain.
Why didnt you ntion this if you knew about such thods!?
I knew about it but only thought of it now. And it was only due to the lead you provided.
Sotis things happened this way. The tiniest thing could make soone connect the dots, which was also known as a breakthrough. For example, the mont Hong Hao Hao was revealed, many things could be explained.
If they had designs on Xiao Xia long ago, they would have co to the door regardless if anything happened to Gu Yu Fang! Wan Li said.
Thats right. However, they must have another goal. Otherwise, they wouldnt create whatever Flower Society. The question is, why are they after Xiao Xia?
Thats a good question. How about I go with you tonight? Wan Li suggested.
No, you stay. Who knows if they have more sches? Although the formation was restored, he was still a little uneasy.
Fine. Well each watch over a side. Wan Li agreed. Then Im heading back to work. You should probably plan things out. Best not to let Xiao Xia know about this for now.
Alright.
