My Master Disconnected Yet Again (Part 3)

Chapter 391: Stubborn Yin Qi

Five minutes later.

"What are you doing here?" Lonemoon tried his hardest to suppress the urge to beat her up as he scanned her from head to toe. She was completely uninjured. Si Yu had only called him ten minutes ago, yet Shen Ying's body had traveled tens of thousands of miles.

"Oh. Someone pulled me here." Shen Ying tilted her head.

"Who is he?"

She paused and glanced at Yun Heng beside him. She gnawed on the fruit that Chef just passed to her and said, "Perhaps... the Rich Ghost?"

"Rich... Song Ren?" Lonemoon exclaimed. Was he not called Mischievous Ghost? "What did he bring you here for?" Song Ren was a ghost with grievous energy. Chef had said before that grievous energy has great impact on remnant souls. The last time the remnant souls attacked the city, his grievous energy exploded.

"I don't know." Shen Ying shook her head.

"What about the others?"

"I don't know." Shen Ying continued shaking her head.

"Holy shit, you don't know anything and you came here obediently?" Where are your brains? Have you eaten them all up?

Shen Ying shook her hand out and answered after awhile, "Isn't he molding now? It'll be horrible for me not to bother about him." Did I not just lose him for a second?

"..."

Molding? What did she mean?

Lonemoon looked confused. Yi Qing, on the other hand, thought of something and asked, "Master is saying... Song Ren's grievous energy is acting up again?"

"Hmm."

Chef frowned. He thought about the grievous energy that suddenly grabbed Yun Heng and disappeared. Master was saying that she came here because of the grievous energy. Given the distance, Yi Qing was guessing that Song Ren's outburst of grievous energy this time was much bigger than the last.

But why was it that Song Ren's grievous energy did not do that before? How did it carry someone through tens of thousands of miles?

Unless.. it was because of this place!

Yi Qing looked around at the Yin Qi that was still filling the surroundings. Then, he faced the person beside him. "Yun Heng, what kind of place is this northern region? Why is that even though the remnant souls have entered Samsara, the Yin Qi remains?"

Yun Heng stared blankly back at him. Honestly, he replied, "Well... I don't understand the exact reason as well. It's said that this place has been like that since the ancient times. The story is that this place has always been extremely cold, so it attracted many evil spirits. As time went by, so much Yin Qi accumulated that nobody could get rid of it anymore. The northern region did not use to be this big. It only got bigger because more and more Yin Qi accumulated here over time, and the number of evil spirits increased as well."

"That's right..." He suddenly recalled something else and continued, "It is also said that the evil spirits over here used to consume human beings. A few hundred years ago, deviant ghosts that consumed people appeared. All our Mystic cultivator ancestors gathered them over here."

He sighed as a pained expression crossed his face. "Ever since that day, more and more deviant ghosts appeared. The entire northern region grew in size until it became this big."

"Why are you suddenly asking about this?" Lonemoon could not help but ask. "What are you thinking?"

Yi Qing frowned and explained what was in his head. "If those deviant ghosts could affect Song Ren, then the grievous energy in his body-"
