As Xie Bei walked away, the others felt even more uncertain.
His strength was not weak among the group; he was much stronger than Zhao Wentong, who had no spiritual power at all, and far more useful than Qian Jinyu, who possessed immense spiritual energy but lacked any real power.
Among Ye Xiu's group, the strongest was Tang Luor, followed by Ye Xiu himself, who had mastered two unique skills and learned the Seven Lives Sect Heart Method. Jiang Baixuan and Xie Bei were evenly matched, while the others were merely there to fill in.
There was Zhao Wentong, who had no spiritual power; Qian Fatty, who had spiritual energy but no real strength; and the unfortunate Female Ghost Xia Mo…
Now that Xie Bei had left, the overall strength of the group had undoubtedly diminished.
Everyone's mood was quite low.
Immediately following the Thunder Wave Incident, various sects dispatched personnel to restore order across different regions, and the disaster was quickly contained from worsening.
At that moment, a classmate rushed over from a distance. Ye Xiu recognized him as Wu Nan from the Supernatural Investigation Team.
"Hey! You guys have to see this! I can't believe Teacher An really has a ghost!" Wu Nan shouted as he approached the group.
He hurriedly opened his camera to show everyone the photos inside.
The images were horrifying. One of them depicted a female student who had happily left after talking with Anxu earlier. Her body was trampled beyond recognition. Beside her corpse, a Daoist figure flickered in and out of sight; upon closer inspection, it was indeed the ghost of that female student!
The ghost wore a desperate expression of pleading.
She had been humiliated by Anxu in life, and now her soul was being exploited by him even in death!
This beast was truly despicable!
Looking at the photo, no one was as shocked and panicked as Wu Nan; some were simply filled with anger.
To Wu Nan, the only shocking thing was the grotesque corpse, while the Daoist shadow didn’t concern him at all.
The anger reflected in everyone’s eyes was something Wu Nan could somewhat understand. After all, a vibrant young girl had suddenly turned into a cold, lifeless body, and the sight was utterly horrifying…
Anger was only natural!
"Where did you take this photo?" Ye Xiu asked.
"In a hidden basement."
"Were you not discovered by Anxu?"
"After capturing this scene, I hurriedly left and bumped into something. I was too focused on escaping to notice if he saw me…"
At that moment, Ye Xiu didn’t respond but instead looked behind Wu Nan.
Everyone followed Ye Xiu's gaze and gasped in surprise!
They saw Anxu slowly walking toward them, wearing a friendly smile…
Yet this smile no longer held the warmth it once did; it only conveyed an underlying danger to everyone present!
As Anxu approached, he smiled at each person before turning his gaze toward Wu Nan.
At that moment, Wu Nan was drenched in cold sweat, clearly flustered.
"Student, what is your name?" Anxu asked.
"I... I..." Wu Nan stammered.
"It's alright, classmate. I just find your soul very interesting. Paired with your body, it will surely make for great learning material. I'll be sure to praise you at the next school meeting," Anxu said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.
An interesting soul, matched with a body...
Removing the meaningless words, it felt as if Anxu was saying, "Your soul is intriguing, and your body is good material!"
On ordinary days, how could that kind-hearted teacher speak such chilling words about souls and bodies?
"I... my name is Wu Nan..."
Wu Nan thought Anxu's words were strange but didn't dwell on it and simply stated his name.
"Alright, Wu Nan. See you next time."
With a cheerful expression, Anxu turned to leave. At that moment, he suddenly swung his arm back, causing Tang Luor and Jiang Baixuan to widen their eyes in shock, clearly startled by something.
What was that thing?
"Ghost King!" Jiang Baixuan exclaimed.
Then Jiang Baixuan turned to Tang Luor and asked, "Did you see it too?"
"Yes, it looked terrifying, but I couldn't tell what it was."
Ye Xiu frowned and asked, "What did you find? Why can't we see anything?"
Tang Luor turned to Jiang Baixuan and said, "You're knowledgeable about ghosts; why don't you explain?"
"Um."
Jiang Baixuan became serious. "Just as Anxu turned around a moment ago, a ghostly face appeared behind him. That is the Ghost King! The Ghost King possesses intelligence and, compared to Summer Mo, has both memory and spiritual power. When the Ghost King appeared just now, I couldn't sense his strength, so I deduce that the Ghost King's cultivation is at least in the Ghost Spirit Realm!"
"!!!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback!
What exactly is the Ghost Spirit? It is an existence that stands on the brink of crossing the boundary between humans and ghosts. For a ghost to break through to the Ghost Spirit realm is akin to a normal cultivator entering the Spirit Realm. Unlike ordinary Spirit Realm cultivators, a ghost's Spirit Realm allows for dual identities, even if the ghost also possesses a human form! What an ordinary Spirit Realm cultivator cannot achieve, a ghost in the Spirit Realm can. Moreover, there are only a few individuals in the Present World’s Spirit Realm; if the Ghost King just now were to break through to the Spirit Realm, it would likely take all other Spirit Realm cultivators combined, aside from the current Two Supremes, to contend with him!
"I didn't expect Anxu to have such means!" Ye Xiu said angrily.
Clearly, Anxu was no longer someone Ye Xiu and the others could handle. They had thought Anxu was merely a minor character but were proven wrong…
Meanwhile, Wu Nan, who had been listening intently to everyone's conversation, began to question whether this was all just a dream.
These words completely shattered Wu Nan's worldview.
Although he couldn't fully understand everything, he could still grasp that there are indeed ghosts in this world! And there are also cultivators!
Ye Xiu noticed Wu Nan and recalled what Anxu had said earlier.
It was evident that Anxu had already set his sights on Wu Nan. Even if Anxu were to come over now and directly target Wu Nan, there would be no one to stop him!
Ye Xiu patted Wu Nan's shoulder, expressing sympathy. "Hey... Wu, what's wrong?"
Wu Nan, oblivious to the danger of his situation, replied, "Hmm, Ye, what is it?"
At that moment, Zhao Wentong approached and wrapped an arm around Wu Nan. "Old Wu! Don't worry, even if Anxu really wants to kill you, take your soul and dismember your body, we'll make sure to burn extra paper for you!"
How long had Zhao Wentong known Wu Nan? Yet he called him "Old Wu" so affectionately.
"What??? Why does he want to kill me?"
"Because he's got his eyes on you!"
"Ah!!!" Wu Nan exclaimed, clearly frightened.
Ye Xiu felt sympathy but knew that if he hadn't asked Wu Nan to keep an eye on Anxu, he wouldn't have put him in danger. Therefore, it was crucial to protect Wu Nan.
"Wu, you heard what was just said. Anxu has a Ghost King with him; this is beyond what we can handle. So you should hide for now." He then turned to Tang Luor and asked, "Is it alright for Wu Nan to hide at the Tang residence?"
"Yes! Leave this to me!" Tang Luor replied.
