The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity Chapter 28 Why don’t you come home tonight? Wronged.jpg
"Zhaozhao, you finally made it!"
Qin Zhao arrived at Su Xiaotong’s house, and she excitedly pulled her inside. Her face was pale, and her hand was trembling as she held Qin Zhao’s—a clear sign she was terrified.
"Just now, Wei Miao called , and she said Xu Yuanpeng disappeared. Xu Yuanpeng is an up-and-coming idol, and you’ve t him at an event before, rember?"
Qin Zhao carefully searched her mory before nodding, "I rember, what happened next?"
"He saw so Disc Immortal ritual online and wanted to try it out. But in the middle of it, the barbecue was ready, and everyone went to eat, leaving no one to watch his Disc Immortal summoning. He didn’t continue the ritual.
When we finished eating and returned, we found the disc cracked, but nobody had touched it.
They didn’t take it seriously, and we left the party villa.
Just now, Wei Miao called again, saying that she couldn’t contact Xu Yuanpeng all day. She even went to his house but didn’t find him."
"Did you call the police?"
"Not yet. The police will only handle it if he has been missing for over 24 hours."
Qin Zhao didn’t reply but calculated the karma surrounding Su Xiaotong.
"Zhaozhao, could Xu Yuanpeng’s disappearance be related to the Disc Immortal?"
Su Xiaotong usually didn’t believe in these things, but after experiencing what happened at Dragon King Temple and the incident with Xie Han, she considered the existence of the Disc Immortal quite plausible.
The video that Xu Yuanpeng saw online said that if the ritual is interrupted, it would anger the Disc Immortal. The Disc Immortal would then seek to kill everyone present one by one.
"You’ve indeed got yourself into trouble."
Qin Zhao deduced the result and sighed, "Invoking the Disc Immortal like this isn’t sothing you should play around with. You were also unlucky that day; that party villa was no ordinary villa."
"What do you an?"
Su Xiaotong’s face turned even paler upon hearing her words.
"I don’t know for sure yet, but there’s sothing off about that villa. Let’s go check it out tomorrow."
Qin Zhao glanced at the clock—it was 7:30 PM.
"It’s still early. Ask your friends to get a Peach Wood Sword and place it by the windows and doors. If they can’t find a Peach Wood Sword, hanging so garlic should also help you get through tonight."
"Okay, I’ll tell them right away!"
Su Xiaotong called her friends one by one, and so, knowing about Xu Yuanpeng’s disappearance, were a bit scared and did as Su Xiaotong told them.
"Ah, Xiaotong, you’re making a mountain out of a molehill. Summoning the Disc Immortal is just child’s play; there’s nothing to be afraid of.
Xu Yuanpeng often parties all night. He might be at a bar right now, flirting with so girls; he couldn’t just disappear.
I’ll take you to the bars he frequents tomorrow, and we’re sure to find him."
On the other end of the phone was Xu Yuanpeng’s agent, Wang ng.
Wang ng, much older and a rough man, wasn’t worried about such matters.
"Brother ng, it’s better to be safe than sorry. You must have so garlic at ho, right? Just hang so by your window."
"I never cook—I always order takeaway. Where would I get garlic?" Wang ng laughed it off casually. "Xiaotong, I’ve got to arrange so work. I’ll hang up now."
He hung up the phone, leaving Su Xiaotong anxiously looking at Qin Zhao.
"Zhaozhao, Brother ng doesn’t believe it. Could sothing happen to him?"
"Do you know his birthdate and ti?"
"Let ask."
After obtaining Wang ng’s birth details, Qin Zhao did a divination.
"He won’t face any life-threatening danger tonight."
Hearing this, Su Xiaotong breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Zhao narrowed her eyes, a hint of amusent flickering within.
While he might not face any threat to his life, whether he might encounter unclean entities was another matter.
Qin Zhao brought her toiletries and went to freshen up, planning to stay at Su Xiaotong’s place tonight.
After freshening up, she received a WeChat ssage from Chu Yan.
Dead White Lotus: Why has your chicken eaten over 10,000g of feed in my Ant Farm, even more than my own chicken? Mine has almost starved.
Qin Zhao knew it was a mini-ga within a certain paynt app, but she never played it.
She didn’t understand why Chu Yan would send her such a trivial ssage.
Qin Zhao: Why not just chase it away?
Dead White Lotus: Why are you driving them away? It’s not like I can’t afford to take care of them.
Dead White Lotus: Your dog never eats dog food, it always steals the cat food. It just bullied my cat again, can you co back and take care of it?
Qin Zhao: I have sothing tonight, won’t be back.
Dead White Lotus: [upset]
You’re upset over a bit of cat food?
Stingy ghost!
Qin Zhao snorted. She had bought cat food for the cats, okay?
What’s wrong with her dog eating so?
Qin Zhao didn’t pay attention to Chu Yan anymore. After washing up, she lay down in bed with Su Xiaotong, ready to sleep early.
With Qin Zhao by her side, Su Xiaotong sohow felt very at ease.
Before long, Su Xiaotong’s breathing beca light, and she quickly fell asleep.

At two in the morning, Wang ng was still working overti.
Scratch, scratch.
There were strange noises coming from the window, as if soone was scraping their nails against the wood.
The cold wind howled, accompanied by the whining cries of a child.
Wang ng’s attention was all on the computer in front of him, so he didn’t notice anything odd nearby.
"I’ll be done here and can rest."
He yawned, suddenly rembering what Su Xiaotong had ntioned.
"Xu Yuanpeng really should keep in touch when he goes out, he never listens."
Wang ng complained, thinking he should have a good talk with Xu Yuanpeng tomorrow.
He quickly finished the last bit of work, just about to shut down the computer, when he suddenly heard a sweet voice, "Uncle, Xiao Yun will take you to a fun place."
Wang ng turned to look not far away and saw a little girl holding a doll.
Eh, why is his niece here?
"Xiao Yun, where are you taking uncle?"
Just a mont of confusion crossed Wang ng’s mind before he pushed the thought aside.
His eyes slowly filled with a perplexed look.
"Uncle, co over here quickly."
Wang ng, without ti to think, saw his niece running ahead and hurriedly chased after her.
But no matter how he ran, he couldn’t catch up to Xiao Yun.
"Xiao Yun, slow down."
Their ho was in a thirteenth-floor apartnt, where could such a long road be?
Suddenly, this thought flashed through his mind.
Wang ng snapped awake.
A biting cold wind hit his face, he didn’t know when he had opened the door to the balcony, one leg was already over the railing, about to jump down.
And this was from the thirteenth floor!
If he jumped, it would definitely be broken bones!
The color drained from Wang ng’s face.
He turned and went back into his apartnt, searched several tis but couldn’t find any trace of the child.
A cold sweat broke out on his back, and Wang ng quickly called his older brother.
"Brother, did you bring Xiao Yun to my place just now?"
"No, it’s the middle of the night, why would I go to your place? Were you dreaming?" The voice on the other end was sleepy, clearly woken up by the call, "Xiao Yun is sleeping between and her mom."
"Ah? Then, I might have been dreaming."
Wang ng swallowed hard, rembering what Su Xiaotong had warned him about.
He couldn’t have just encountered a ghost, could he?
