At night, the wind is strong, the sky is high, and the moon and stars are few and far between.
In the west of the city, the courtyard of the wealthy businessman Luo's family was brightly lit.
In the largest courtyard, there was a gorgeous pavilion, and the sounds of joy between men and women could be heard from time to time.
The wind blows and the gauze moves, and the wine travelers get drunk.
In an attic not far away, a middle-aged man looked at the young man in the pavilion indifferently, with a flash of anger in the corner of his eyes.
This person's name is Luo Fangshi, and he is the head of the Luo family.
The young man practicing aerobic breathing in the pavilion is called Luo Zhi, his only son.
"Deng Deng Deng!"
An attendant hurried up the stairs behind him.
"Sir, the spies from the City Lord's Mansion have reported that the City Lord's daughter has passed away!"
Luo Fangshi frowned calmly, and then waved gently to the attendant.
"Tell the young master that after half a stick of incense, come to the guest hall to discuss matters!"
"As you command!"
The attendant quickly went downstairs.
Then, another figure emerged from the shadows of the attic.
"That girl's soul lamp has not been extinguished yet, but it is indeed much weaker now."
The man in black flattered.
"It seems she can't wait until tomorrow."
"Chang Immortal, I'll thank you for your help next!"
Luo Fangshi bowed his hand to the man in black.
"Master Luo, you are so polite. I am just being entrusted by others!"
After half a stick of incense, Luojia Ke Hall.
Luo Zhi appeared here with a somewhat vain pace.
"Dad, it's so late, what's wrong?"
He yawned sleepily and shook his head vigorously to stay awake.
Upon seeing this, the man in black took out a jade bottle from his arms, then poured out a white pill and sent it to Luo Zhi.
"Eat it!"
Luo Zhi was stunned for a moment, then reached out to take it, and put it in his mouth without looking at it.
"Hiccup~~"
After three breaths, he burped several times and exhaled the strong smell of alcohol. Only then did he sober up a little.
"Thank you...immortal!"
Only then did he realize that something was wrong, and he quickly saluted the man in black.
Luo Fangshi sighed helplessly.
"That girl from the Jiang family is dying. You can follow the immortal there later!"
"Remember your mission, don't mess it up!"
When Luo Zhi heard this, he suddenly woke up.
"Dad, don't worry!"
The man in black nodded slightly and immediately stepped out.
Afterwards, the group left the Luo family's residence, walked through the long and simple streets of Canglong City, and headed straight to the city lord's mansion.
At the same time, a white cloth had been hung in the city lord's mansion.
The original hall was also set up as a mourning hall.
The big word "Dian" is very eye-catching.
The city lord was wearing a gray robe and stood in front of the coffin with a sad face.
All the servants in the mansion were wearing white clothes.
"Miss...wuwuwu..."
Several maids knelt in front of the coffin, sobbing.
Among the crowd, Qin Shaoyou, who had washed himself, also put on servant clothes and stood quietly behind a pillar.
Jiang Yue turned slightly sideways and glanced at him secretly.
The latter nodded to him.
Not long after, there was movement outside the city lord's mansion.
"Report!"
"Lord City Lord, Luo Zhi, the young master of the Luo family, is here to pay his respects!"
When Jiang Yue heard this name, he was obviously stunned for a moment.
"It's so late, what is he doing here?"
"not see!"
"This..." the guard hesitated and continued: "Sir, Mr. Luo said that he can save the young lady!"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole room was shocked.
All the servants were obviously frightened by these words.
Save the dead?
How can this be?
Jiang Yue sighed deeply, and then said:
"Invite people in quickly!"
"yes!"
The guard ran out in a hurry, and Jiang Yue whispered to a servant next to him.
The latter nodded, and then he waved to the others. The servants immediately understood and stood at their designated positions.
Not long after, Luo Zhi came in from outside with a few people.
"Junior Luo Zhi, meet Uncle Jiang!"
Luo Zhi glanced around and found that, as the intelligence said, Jiang Yue mistakenly thought Jiang Ling'er was dead and began to arrange a funeral for her.
"Nephew Luo Shi, did you just say you could save Ling'er?"
Luo Zhi said proudly: "Exactly!"
"But I didn't mourn, so how did you learn about Ling'er's death?"
Jiang Yue sneered secretly.
After seeing Luo Zhi being stunned for a moment, he was even more convinced that the Luo family was behind all this!
"To be honest, this junior has always admired Miss Ling'er!"
"After I learned that Ling'er had encountered an accident, I had trouble sleeping and eating!"
"I found many ways, begged many seniors, and finally invited this Baihe Shangxian to come out of the mountain!"
"I didn't dare to delay for a moment and returned to Canglong City immediately. Unexpectedly, it was still a step too late..."
"But as long as the Immortal is willing to take action, I believe Ling'er can still be saved!"
As he spoke, he stepped back slightly and lured out the mysterious man in black, the Immortal Baihe in his mouth.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
Bai He was wearing a black cloak, and his whole figure seemed to be hiding in the darkness.
"Black Scale, can you handle this guy?"
Behind a pillar not far away, Qin Shaoyou was also secretly observing everything happening in the yard.
"This person's cultivation is only in the middle stage of Qi Refining Realm, so I will have no problem dealing with him!"
"but..."
"But what?"
"I can't do it the way I am now. If I want to kill him, I have to change back to my true self!"
"What the hell?"
Qin Shaoyou almost shouted.
If this black scale really returns to its true form as an earth-scaled anaconda, then this matter will become a big deal.
"What should we do?"
Black Scale thought for a while and continued to transmit:
"I'll transfer some spiritual power to you later, enough for you to make one move. As long as you kill him within one move, won't it be fine?"
Qin Shaoyou immediately denied it after hearing this.
"no!"
"Jiang Ling'er's soul is still in his hands, he must hand it over!"
Black Scale was completely wilted now.
"Then there's nothing I can do..."
"You don't have enough strength to force him to hand over his soul."
"Once you show up, you'll be in even more trouble!"
"It's okay, let's wait a little longer for him to hand over his soul!"
Black Scale is puzzled.
"How could he hand it over himself?"
Qin Shaoyou didn't answer him, but took something out of the storage bag and looked through it secretly.
"What are you doing?"
"Didn't you say you'll pass on your spiritual power to me later? Now I'm learning skills!"
"You're kidding! Can you learn it in such a short time?"
Black Scale rolled his eyes.
Let’s talk about the courtyard.
Bai He, dressed in black, stepped forward and stood in front of Luo Zhi.
"I don't want to pay attention to this mundane world, but this boy has some connections with me. Now that he has spoken, I will reluctantly help you once!"
Jiang Yue immediately responded:
"Please ask the immortal to take action and save my daughter."
Bai He nodded slightly, then passed the crowd and walked towards the mourning hall.
I saw him pretending to be walking around the coffin a few times, then flicking his sleeves and taking out a compass from nowhere.
There are many complex spiritual patterns engraved on the compass, and in the middle is a black pointer.
He released his spiritual thoughts and scanned the entire mourning hall, but found nothing unusual.
Then he raised his hands, holding the tray in his left hand and holding flowers in his right hand, and began to mutter something.
Following his soft voice, a strange white mist began to fill the entire mourning hall.
The white mist fluttered and curled up, and finally it all gathered on the coffin, transforming into the vague appearance of a woman!
Seeing this scene, even though Luo Zhi was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body!
"This woman is not dead yet, but part of her soul is lost!"
"As long as she finds her lost soul before dawn, she will wake up!"
