The ghouls of Baili Ji and the others were just here to join in the fun. They had only heard from Xie Qiao that the few people who came today had great backgrounds and were good seedlings. That was why they came down to have a look.

It was just as Xie Qiao had said. These juniors were all very good.

Xiao Yurong looked like a bookworm, but his scholarly aura made even an old man like him want to protect him a little. Sang You was also great. One look and they could tell that he loved cleanliness. He looked like white jade. He was clean and flawless. He was delicate and pretty. His eyebrows and eyes were like a painting. He looked like a woman.

This Jiang Jinlu… was not bad either.

He was a bit impetuous, but he was the most down-to-earth one.

In the world, people like the Crown Prince, Xiao Yurong, and even Sang You looked like they grew up drinking morning dew. They were rare after all.

This Jiang Jinlu was young and vigorous, reckless and ignorant, stupid and foolish, but he was a normal scholar. He had all the vigor and all the possibilities.

Not bad, not bad at all.

Seeing such a junior, the spirits of the Baili family were all very satisfied.

Most of the spirits died when the world was at its most chaotic. At that time, the imperial court was muddle-headed, and the people were suffering unspeakably. Many scholars had all their talents and had nowhere to put them to use.

However, when they saw these people now, they felt as if they had suddenly grown out of the mud and seen the light.

The world today was definitely incomparably peaceful!

They had satisfied expressions on their faces, but Jiang Jinlu was innocent and did not understand.

After a while, Baili Ji beckoned the ghouls of the family to go upstairs. Only then did Jiang Jinlu let out a sigh of relief.

At this moment, he finally saw the spirit by Meng Jifang’s side.

The spirit had been hiding in the shadows and did not show itself. However, it seemed to be curious about what was happening outside, so it occasionally flashed by and was seen by Jiang Jinlu.

He almost vomited.

Although the spirits of the Baili family did not look good. Some of them were covered in blood, and some of them even had their heads separated from their bodies. However, they had cleaned up properly. They did not intend to scare Jiang Jinlu, so they all looked normal. They had put on the clothes that Xie Qiao had burned, and they still looked quite cool and dignified. They were really not scary.

However, the spirit of Erniang was different.

Her dull eyes swayed up and down with her head.

Her empty neck made people feel a chill on the back of their neck.

She even flashed by, hiding and revealing herself, which made her even scarier.

“Maybe you can take it?” Xie Qiao asked with a smile.

Jiang Jinlu’s stiff body moved slightly. Just as he was about to shake his head, Xie Pinggang said, “It’s just a dead person. What’s the big deal? Even Master, a woman, can take it. You’re such a big man. What’s there to be afraid of?”

Jiang Jinlu wanted to cry but had no tears.

Xie Pinggang did not dislike Jiang Jinlu, but he thought of his sister.

His sister was younger than Jiang Jinlu, and she had seen these things since she was young. Was she not still alive?

Jiang Jinlu had only seen it for one day. If he could not bear it anymore, he would be useless.

Sang You did not like to listen to Xie Pinggang’s words, he could not help but frown. “Master Xie, you should be more polite. I have a book at home. Why don’t I give it to you some other day and you read it a few times? It will definitely change you and make you feel like a new man.”

Xie Pinggang turned to look at Sang You. “Read? Forget it. Last year, I read books all day to win a spear from Jianghai Academy. I vomited a few times from reading. We have no grudges against each other, why are you trying to harm me?!”
