    He raised his hand to touch his chin, a thoughtful look on his face as he went on, “You didn’t go out but had me take Gu Xiaoxi.


    You could have asked Gu Xiaoxi yourself, yet you made me do it.


    I can’t help but be suspicious.”


    “Tell me, what is really going on between you two?” Tang Yichen looked at Su Yunling with a questioning face, a hint of curiosity coloring his eyes.


    Hearing Tang Yichen’s words, Su Yunling’s eyes were cast down slightly in silence.


    About a minute passed before Su Yunling finally spoke softly, “It’s my problem.”


    One night’s time had been enough for him to confirm that he indeed harbored thoughts he shouldn’t have.


    However, he had not yet figured out how to face that child.


    Hearing Su Yunling’s response, Tang Yichen blinked slowly, his interest clearly aroused, “So, did you really have a fight?”


    “We didn’t fight.”


    Tang Yichen, upon hearing this, was obviously unconvinced.


    Su Yunling’s eyes were still slightly downcast, and he said no more.

    Gu Zhiqi had just left Gu Mengyang’s vi when she remembered something.


    Because she had used the Soul Searching Technique, her Yuan Force had been sealed.


    With the Yuan Force sealed, she clearly could not set up an array within three days.


    After standing in ce for a few seconds, she finally took out her phone and sent a message to Lv Yao.


    [Zhezhi: Something came up unexpectedly; the array setup needs to be postponed.]


    Just after she sent the message, Lv Yao immediately replied.


    [Lv Yao: Then I shall inform my senior disciple sister right away.]


    [Zhezhi: I am truly sorry.]


    [Lv Yao: Master, you are too serious.]


    [Lv Yao: You have done favors for both me and my senior disciple sister, there’s no need to be so formal with us.]


    After rifying things with Lv Yao, Gu Zhiqi did not turn back to Gu Mengyang’s vi, but instead went out to buy Yellow Paper.


    In Yan City, there is an underground market known as the Ghost Market.


    The Ghost Market is a jumble of all sorts, with Diviners telling fortunes at their stalls, vendors selling Mysterious Sect artifacts, traffickers of dubious goods, merchants of rare treasures, and all manner of cheats and swindlers.


    The Ghost Market usually opens after 9 p.m.


    and disperses before 6 a.m.


    In the Ghost Market, one can find high-quality Yellow Paper and cinnabar for sale.


    Gu Zhiqi had read novels and knew that Yan City had such a ce; the Yellow Paper and cinnabar she had previously used for array setup were bought there.


    Standing outside Yan City Suburb is a mountain named Shadow Mountain, and halfway up Shadow Mountain is a vi—Clear Shadow Vi.


    Clear Shadow Vi is the first gateway to the Ghost Market.


    Everyone who wishes to enter must be guided by the vi’s staff.


    The trip from Moon Falling Bay to Shadow Mountain takes an hour and a half by car.


    When Gu Zhiqi arrived at Clear Shadow Vi, it was almost ten o’clock.


    As soon as she entered the vi, a staff member came forward to greet her, “Miss, would you like to reserve a room?”


    “A room in Building 44.”


    Upon hearing Gu Zhiqi’s response, the staff member’s smile remained unchanged as they led her to a room.


    After arriving at the room, Gu Zhiqi paid an entrance fee of One Hundred Yuan; the staff member gave her a ck Hooded Robe and a ck Mask.


    Once Gu Zhiqi had put on the mask, robe, and hood properly, the staff member went to a flower vase by the wall, twisted it, and opened a secret door.


    Behind the secret door was a teleportation gate glowing with white light, “Pleasee inside, guest, and make sure to strictly abide by Underground Market rules.”


    Gu Zhiqi nodded gently and stepped into the teleportation gate.


    The teleportation gate sent Gu Zhiqi to the outside of the mountain gate.


    Outside the mountain gate, in addition to Gu Zhiqi, many others were present, and from time to time, people would appear out of thin air.


    These people had alle to the front of the mountain gate through different teleportation gates.
