  “Don’t worry. I’m going up.” Lou Ming turned around with a faint smile. He was calm and relaxed, more like he was just saying good night.



    Chen Yu waited until Lou Ming and Elder Wu headed back to their rooms before turning around and walking outside the living room. Her Grandpa had set up a formation in the small courtyard, and this formation could suppress all evil qi in a short time.

    “Miss Chen Yu.” As soon as Chen Yu walked out of the living room, Tian Qi handed the box containing the hairpin to Chen Yu.

    This formation was prepared just in case. Although Elder Wu had also arranged the formation in the bedroom on the second floor, in case Lou Ming’s evil qi was too much and broke through the formation and spilled out, then Chen Yu was needed to be the second barrier outside the courtyard. She must purify them with the hairpin in her hand and ensure that no innocent people would be harmed.

    Because of the tremendous consumption of spirit qi when separating the evil qi, there was a high probability that Elder Wu would be powerless afterwards. Moreover, the evil qi separation shouldn’t be performed in the compound.

    With the hairpin in hand, Chen Yu stood under the dim yellow street lamp and looked up at the window on the second floor, feeling a bit nervous.

    “Miss Chen Yu, will Young Master be okay?” Tian Fei, who was beside her, asked on behalf of the assistant group.

    “He will be!” Chen Yu said resolutely. It was as if things would indeed be so when she said it that way.

    On the second floor, Lou Ming’s bedroom.

    “Are you ready?” Elder Wu asked as he looked at Lou Ming who was standing in the center of the three magic tools.

    “Ready.” Lou Ming nodded.

    “Then I will begin.” Elder Wu stood in front of Lou Ming, drew a Soul Summoning Talisman in an empty space, and then tapped his finger on Lou Ming’s forehead. When a golden light flashed from the talisman, his finger that on Lou Ming’s forehead suddenly curled up, as if hooking something, and gently pulled outward.



    “Thud!”

    Lou Ming, who was standing straight, suddenly fell onto the bed behind him with a thud, while a transparent figure was left where Lou Ming was originally standing.

    The hooking was successful!

    “This is…” Lou Ming raised his hand, and turned to look at himself lying on the bed. He was filled with novelty. Is this the feeling of the soul leaving the body?

    “Next, I’m going to separate your evil qi.” Elder Wu’s expression turned somewhat grave.

    “Sorry to trouble you again.” Lou Ming bowed to Elder Wu.

    The moment Lou Ming’s soul was hooked out, Elder Wu discovered that there was a seal on Lou Ming’s soul, and the evil qi surrounding his frame was spilling out from the seam of the seal little by little.

    This discovery made Elder Wu both happy and worried. He was happy because a portion of Lou Ming’s evil qi was surrounding his soul, so he didn’t need to hurt Lou Ming’s soul to separate it out. He was worried because the source of the evil qi was certainly underneath the seal. 

    Elder Wu pondered for a moment and decided to separate the evil qi around Lou Ming’s soul first. He first picked up the jade pendant that Minister Lou found and used his spiritual power to seal the evil qi in it, bit by bit. After absorbing the evil qi, the green jade pendant instantly turned red. This process took an entire hour, and even with the constant replenishment of spirit qi, Elder Wu was tired and sweating profusely.

    It was harder than he imagined to separate evil qi, and to think that these threads of evil qi weren’t the ones entwined with the soul.

    Elder Wu rested for a while, but when he looked up again, he found that more evil qi was seeping out after he had just absorbed everything clean. He observed carefully for a moment and found that it was spilling out from the seal on Lou Ming’s chest.

    At this rate of spillover, Elder Wu estimated that it would take only a year to reach the level of evil qi, which he had cleaned just now.



    That was to say, the evil qi that he had painstakingly separated just now could only last for a year. After a year, Lou Ming would be back to his original state. 

    Souls of the living couldn’t be drawn out of their physical bodies at will. The more times it was drawn out, the soul would become more and more unstable, not to mention that something so dangerous was sealed in Lou Ming’s soul. Therefore, Elder Wu wasn’t looking forward to drawing Lou Ming’s soul out a year later, or even every year in the future.

    Elder Wu looked at the two remaining unused magic artifacts, and his eyes fell on Lou Ming’s chest — the spot where the seal was located. He was weighing whether he should widen the gap a little bit and then help clean Lou Ming’s evil qi as much as possible. While at it, he could estimate how much evil qi there was in Lou Ming’s body and how many magic tools it would take to seal everything up.

    Elder Wu hesitated, and his finger with spiritual power tentatively, wanting to touch the seal. Just when his finger was an inch away from the seal, a huge resistance suddenly popped out from inside the seal. He was caught off guard and was pushed back three or four steps.

    “Elder Wu, what’s wrong?” Lou Ming had been standing quietly and allowing Elder Wu to clean his evil qi, when he saw him suddenly take a few steps back with a ghastly pale face. He anxiously moved forward.

    “Don’t you move!” Elder Wu reprimanded loudly. His gaze fixed on Lou Ming’s back without blinking.

    He was shocked to see a familiar circle of golden light emerging from Lou Ming’s soul. Immediately afterwards, a figure wearing an ancient style robe separated from Lou Ming’s soul.

    The man’s eyes were closed, and his looks were eight percent similar to Lou Ming’s. His long hair was still, and he didn’t utter a word. He just stood quietly, exuding the aura of an sage.

    Is this one body and two souls?

    Under Elder Wu’s incredulous gaze, the man finally opened his eyes, his phoenix eyes gleamed with brilliant lights and vibrant colors, as if he could see deep into the human soul.

    “Elder!” Elder Wu unconsciously addressed him.

    Lou Ming also sensed something wrong at this time. He turned around in surprise, and the moment he saw the man, he couldn’t help but be startled: “Who are you?”



    The man blinked, as if he had just woken up. He stood stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Lou Ming, and after surveying him for a while, he suddenly broke into a smile: “I am you from a previous life, or the you from many lifetimes ago.”

    “Are you me?” Lou Ming was completely caught off guard.

    The man smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Elder Wu on the other side. He asked, “Are you trying to seal the profound fiend into magic artifacts?”

    “Yes.” Elder Wu somehow couldn’t help but feel a sense of respect when he addressed this man.

    “The grade of the magic artifacts is poor. They can’t collect much, but they’re better than nothing.” As soon as the man’s words fell and with a flick of his robe sleeve, the seal on Lou Ming’s chest was suddenly unlocked, and a constant stream of evil qi immediately floated out until it filled the two remaining magic artifacts.

    Elder Wu watched as his hard work was completed with a raise of a hand and in a matter of seconds by the man. Such a powerful cultivation amazed him anew.

    “Deng!”

    Amidst everyone’s inattention, the safe that had been quietly placed in the corner suddenly trembled, then a sword light pierced through it. The bronze sword flew out of the safe and stopped in front of the man after making a turn in the air, buzzing and vibrating.

    “You found the Bronze Sword?” The man raised his eyebrows in some surprise. He lifted his slender fingers and touched the excited Bronze Sword, which kept humming happily.

    “Is this your sword?” Lou Ming asked.

    “It’s also yours.” The man turned his head and laughed.



    “So you are me?” Lou Ming was a little confused. “If you are me, then why haven’t you been reincarnated?”

    Each person had only one soul. If the soul of his previous life had not reincarnated, then naturally there was no him in this life. The two couldn’t possibly coexist.

    “To be exact, I’m just a piece of your memory that sleeps deep in your soul and is used to seal your evil spirit.” The man explained, “To prevent it from rioting to an uncontrollable point.”

    “New Year’s Eve, the sudden appearance of the golden light,” Elder Wu exclaimed with a sudden realization.

    “It’s me. I’ve been sleeping, and I only wake up when the evil spirit is uncontrollable or when someone wakes me up.” The man continued, “I also sensed the spiritual power of the Green Spirit Hairpin that day after the evil spirit went out of control.”

    “It’s that hairpin.”

    Compared to Elder Wu’s shock, Lou Ming was much calmer. He looked at the man, the man who claimed to be the memory of his past life and asked, “If you are a memory of my past lives, then you should know how my evil spirit came to be.”

    “I don’t know.” Unexpectedly, the man shook his head at both of them.

    “How is that possible? Aren’t you me?” Lou Ming couldn’t help but question.

    “I’m just a memory that only remembers what you want me to remember from your previous lives.” The man said, “I remembered to seal the evil spirit and how to dissolve it, but I don’t know where it came from.”

    “You know how to dissolve the evil spirit?” Elder Wu and Lou Ming exclaimed at the same time.

    “Of course, I exist for this purpose,” the man replied.
