Reincarnation: My All-Round Sweetheart-Chapter 1001

"Disappeared? Maybe someone has collected them?" Qianxun said.

And it’s a good thing if an Evil Ghost is collected.

Bai Yingying shook her head, "If it were that simple, it would be great. It’s not just those Evil Ghosts that have vanished; many Wandering Ghosts nearby have also disappeared completely! Furthermore, recently, all over the country, there have been some mysterious deaths, the methods resemble those of Taoist Yun from before."

At these words, Qianxun immediately understood.

"Are you worried that someone is collecting Evil Ghosts for their own use?"

"Yes!"

In this world, people die every day, so a region can’t possibly be free of any Wandering Ghosts.

That means the Wandering Ghosts have either been purified by someone, or... have been devoured by an even more formidable Evil Ghost.

If it’s the latter, then things are troublesome.

For a moment, Qianxun’s face also darkened.

...

Before long, Huo Tianzun entered wearing a white shirt and black pants.

Seeing Qianxun’s grave expression, he sat down and asked, "Baby, what’s wrong?"

Qianxun recounted Bai Yingying’s recent words to him and then said, "Yanzhi, I’m feeling uneasy."

After Bai Yingying spoke to her, she had an ominous premonition.

"Don’t worry, I will have someone investigate this issue." Huo Tianzun replied.

In modern Mystical Sect, while mysterious enough for ordinary people, it’s not so for the state.

He has the authority to mobilize all Mystical Sect forces, and if he wants to investigate this matter, he can surely find some leads.

Qianxun nodded slightly and watched Huo Tianzun pull out his computer to start issuing tasks.

Half an hour later, Huo Tianzun nodded to Qianxun, saying, "Alright, now we just need to wait for the news."

"Mm!" Qianxun nodded.

...

Three days later, Huo Tianzun began to receive messages returned by the Mystical Sect.

After reading these messages, Huo Tianzun’s complexion turned grim.

"Yanzhi, what did you find?" Qianxun leaned forward.

"Someone is deliberately nurturing Evil Ghosts, seemingly wanting to create a Ghost King." Huo Tianzun said in a deep voice.

Qianxun’s heart sank.

She then quickly scanned through various pieces of information.

The intelligence detailed the eerie and tragic deaths across Huaxia recently, the vanished Evil Ghosts in the ominous places, and... the villages that were slaughtered overnight, leaving not a single vengeful spirit.

After synthesizing this information, Qianxun understood.

Someone is raising a Ghost King, using the method of nurturing by predation.

Gather all the Evil Ghosts from different areas, then have them devour each other. Naturally, the surviving Evil Ghost will be the strongest one.

Narrowing her eyes, Qianxun couldn’t help but ask, "Could it be Xia Yanran’s doing?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Tianzun shook his head, "No trace of Xia Yanran has been found, but someone did find signs of Taoist Qingyang, so it’s likely related to him."

Qianxun immediately frowned deeply.

Then she said to Huo Tianzun, "Ask Huo Tianci about this." After all, Tianci is his disciple.

"Mm!"

...

As Huo Tianzun dialed Huo Tianci’s phone, they came to know he had narrowly escaped being Body Seized by Taoist Qingyang.

Huo Tianzun listened and said sternly, "Why didn’t you tell me? Do you know what would happen if he had succeeded?"

"Bro, I only went alone because I was confident." Huo Tianci pursed his lips.
