Starting Cultivation During a Trip

Later, the mistress started having nightmares night after night, always dreaming of someone knocking on the door, asking her to help find something. When she opened the door, there was only a red and blue woven bag.

The mistress became increasingly delirious, began to speak nonsense, and even wanted to turn herself in to the police.

The man got scared, so he dismembered the mistress too, stuffed her into a suitcase, but before he could dump it, it was discovered.

Since then, the building became eerie and mysterious. People often saw a suitcase or woven bag at the hallway or elevator entrance in the middle of the night, blood seeping out, with strange noises echoing through the empty building.

"If you love her, buy a suitcase; if not, buy a woven bag."

"Throw it far, bury it near, never ask anyone to carry it."

"Heh heh..."

Business at the Red Sun Building got worse and worse. The residents and businesses continued to move out, and over time it was abandoned, with no one taking it over to this day.

Drip... drip...

At the end of the cold corridor, there was the sound of dripping water, echoing in the cold and clear night.

"If you love her, buy a suitcase; if not, buy a woven bag."

"Throw it far, bury it near, never ask anyone to carry it."

A whisper, like a cold wind entering the pipe, with a whimpering sound. Under the flickering lights, a red and blue woven bag could be faintly seen hidden at the stair corner, with a shadow seeming to be beside it.

"I thought it was a fierce ghost in the haunted building, but someone is Refining Yin Pills here."

On the thirteenth floor, in a red room.

Ge Zhenyan sat on the sofa, staring at the surveillance screen in front of him, and sneered.

In the Daoist Sect, there is a Technique that uses special feng shui layouts to create the illusion of a haunted house and yin site, attracting surrounding spirits and fierce ghosts, like a furnace, to refine yin pills.

Once this pill is formed, it is like Taking Kan and Filling Li, able to transform yin to yang, refine the yin dregs of the Primordial Spirit, and glimpse the Skillful Realm of the Pure Yang Path.

"Young master, should we..." The gray-haired man beside him spoke in a condensed voice.

"No need, a strong Dragon does not suppress a local snake." Ge Zhenyan waved his hand.

Though the Ge Family is powerful, this is Yujing City after all. To be able to refine yin pills on such a large scale for years without being questioned, clearly the person behind it is not ordinary.

At the very least, the Jiangnan Province Daoist Alliance surely knows, but they turn a blind eye, so one can only imagine the background of the other party.

"It has nothing to do with us, do not stir up unnecessary trouble. Tonight the only task is to catch the representative of the Rat, and the person meeting with him." Ge Zhenyan stared at the surveillance screen, which showed scenes of the first floor shopping mall.

Tonight, whoever appears here is an accomplice of the Rat, a Non-action demon.

"Ge Shuangxiu, is everything prepared for what I asked you to do?"

With a stern query from Ge Zhenyan, Ge Shuangxiu immediately stepped forward.

Pairs of eyes fell on him, yet they carried a trace of indifference.

Among the thirteen experts under Ge Zhenyan, only Ge Shuangxiu shared the Ge surname.

Though of the same clan, their circumstances were vastly different. In front of Ge Zhenyan, he seemed like a servile lackey, with none of the demeanor of someone from the Pure Yang Ge Family.

For this reason, the people around Ge Zhenyan looked down on him.

"You’ve been doing a good job with the tasks by my side." Ge Zhenyan nodded.

Within the Ge Family, Ge Shuangxiu was a complete outcast, being an orphan with no foundation or background, once often wandering like a stray dog.

A person like him, having no support, being taken in by Ge Zhenyan as a retainer, was already a great favor.

Of course, the reason Ge Zhenyan used him was also because he was indeed more convenient and comfortable to work with than others.

A retainer like this, Ge Zhenyan would naturally not hesitate to give opportunities.

"Zhixia, there’s no need to be nervous, just stay here and enjoy the show later."

Ge Shuangxiu looked at Xu Zhixia, who sat beside him diligently staring at the surveillance screen, and showed a doting expression.

"Mm, you be careful too." Xu Zhixia nodded.

She once infiltrated the Wuwei Sect and knew well the prowess of these people.

"Zhixia, I heard you went to university in Yujing City and even had a boyfriend?"

At this moment, Ge Zhenyan shifted the topic suddenly.

"Hmm? Did you investigate me?" Xu Zhixia’s brows furrowed slightly, showing displeasure.

"I care about you."

Ge Zhenyan spoke softly, "I heard it from Auntie last year, and today at the Jiangnan Province Daoist Alliance, Chairman Lou mentioned a name that sounded familiar..."

Typically, an ordinary person’s name wouldn’t warrant a memory for a Pure Yang Family member, but Zhang Fan...

This name, he had once heard from Wei Qingshuang, was Xu Zhixia’s boyfriend during her university days.

"What did Chairman Lou tell you?"

"Said he’s a promising young man, and if there’s a chance, I should give him some promotion." Ge Zhenyan said lightly.

This operation, not only involved experts from the Ge Family but also a joint action with the Qiu Family and the Jiangnan Province Daoist Alliance.

Originally, Lou Hechuan recommended Zhang Fan for this operation, but Ge Zhenyan did not pay any heed to it.

"That was all in the past." Xu Zhixia turned her head to look at the surveillance screen.

"Indeed..."

Sssss...

Just then, the surveillance screen flickered, and a figure walked into the dimly lit mall hall, the features indistinct, only the outline faintly visible.

"Here it comes!"

Ge Zhenyan’s eyes suddenly brightened, like a cat spotting a mouse.
