I slowly walked to the entrance of the courtyard. There wasn't any sound coming from the outside and it seemed that the person still didn't know that I had come out. I quickly looked outside and saw a person standing outside the courtyard wall.

Looking at the back of this person, I seem to have met him before. It's Yuan Kong. Why is he here at such a late hour? He is uncle master's disciple. If I'm not wrong, uncle master must have sent him to monitor me.

I did not have enough time to think and immediately called out to him. But Yuankong acted as if he did not hear me as he immediately ran forward and disappeared into the darkness. Why did this Yuankong come to spy on me? Didn't uncle master say that Mu Feng and I would leave tomorrow? Is he worried that I will do something tonight?

The more I thought about it, the weirder it felt. I turned around and glanced at the courtyard behind me, now that Mu Feng has changed to that state, I don't need to worry about him running around, I'll go see what happened. I don't know why, I keep having the feeling that this has something to do with Second Martial Aunt.

When I walked over, I could no longer see anyone. On top of that, it was dark in the viewing gallery at night and I needed to carefully feel around before being able to reach there. Adding to the time I spent observing the situation, it was already past 3 o'clock.

In front of my courtyard is where the cicadas live. This is where Yuan Kong disappeared to earlier. I walked to the middle of the courtyard where the cicadas live, but I couldn't find Yuan Kong.

After sizing him up, I didn't see anyone and was prepared to leave. But at this moment, I saw a person flash by the door of the guest courtyard, it must be Yuan Kong. I didn't have enough time to think about it and immediately chased after him.

He chased me all the way to the Burning Incense Shrine, but Yuan Kong's figure was nowhere to be seen. It was unknown where he ran to, so the entire hall was very dark. The statues he saw during the day looked slightly creepy, as if they were all looking at him.

I shouted out Yuan Kong's name in a low voice. There was only my echo in the hall, but no one could be seen. Where did Yuan Kong go?

Just as I was about to leave, a voice came from the doorway of the Burning Incense Shrine. "Who is it?" Who's there? "Come out."

I subconsciously turned my head to look. There were two people standing at the entrance of the Burning Incense Shrine. From the looks of it, they seemed to be Yuan Kong and Yuan Ring.

After hearing my voice, Yuan Kong and Yuan Ring walked in. I didn't know where they turned on the light, but Yuan Kong frowned and looked at me before whispering, "It's already so late. Lady Wen Wen, what are you doing here?"

I would say that he wouldn't admit it if I came after him, for God knows why he was watching me, but I don't know why.

The two of them didn't know that I was helping to draw a soul, so I didn't want to say anything more and just told them that I couldn't sleep at night, so I came out for a walk. I didn't expect to come this way.

Yuan Kong and Yuan Li looked at each other, but it seemed as if they didn't believe my words. Yuan Kong slowly walked over, then looked around inside the Burning Incense Shrine, then looked in my direction and sized me up. The expression in his eyes made me feel very uncomfortable, and then he said in a low voice, "Do you know what time it is? Come out for a walk? Don't you think that's a bit ridiculous? I have always suspected that you were up to no good. Was it because you wanted to obtain the Soul Suppressing Stone from the monastery? "

Soul Suppressing Stone? What the heck is this? I don't even know what the Soul Suppressing Stone is. Why would I come here to search for it out of boredom?

When I heard Yuan Kong say this, I was already a little angry, so I immediately said in a deep voice, "Yuan Kong, I don't know what the Soul Suppressing Stone is, but I hope you won't spurt blood from your mouth. If it's true, I saw you outside of my place, that's why I chased you here, who would have known that you would come here, but you guys disappeared, and then you guys came over. I don't even know what the Soul Suppressing Stone is."

Yuan Kong let out a cold laugh. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he heard the Yuan Ring gasp and call out Second Martial Uncle.

The two of us subconsciously looked over to see Yuan Li standing there panickedly, as if he had just seen something terrifying. Yuan Kong immediately ran over, and I also ran over, but when I saw the scene before my eyes, even I was so frightened that I took a few steps back.

In front of the Origin Ring lay a man, covered in blood, with a knife stuck in his back. His eyes were wide open as he stared at the door to the Burning Incense Shrine, giving off a hair-raising feeling.

I don't know why this is happening, but at this moment, Yuan Kong suddenly turned his head and shouted at me, "It's you, you must have killed Second Martial Uncle. You want to know the whereabouts of the Soul Suppressing Stone, Dao Elder Su and Great Master Uncle's cultivation are profound, and you clearly know that you are no match for them, so you found Second Martial Uncle and want to find out from him where the Soul Suppressing Stone is located.

I was about to explain myself, but after thinking about it, Yuan Kong didn't pause at all when he said it. It was as if all these words were already prepared, as if he was just waiting for the body to be found and then he would say these words. This was clearly a trap set up for me.

Could it be that Second Martial Uncle was killed by Yuan Kong and then lured me here intentionally to wrongly accuse me? Why would he do that? Most importantly, why did he kill Second Martial Aunt?

Could it be because of the Soul Suppressing Stone he mentioned?

While I was thinking about this matter, the Yuan Ring had already rushed over and grabbed onto me, telling me not to move. Everything had to be decided by the Great Master, and I was truly a little angry now, because this matter originally had nothing to do with me. I only caught sight of Yuan Kong's figure outside the courtyard, so I chased him out.

But before I could resist, Yuan Kong had already charged forward and caught me together. This is so fucking infuriating. Now that Mu Feng still doesn't know what's going on and I have been wrongly accused, I really don't know where Taoist Su went.
