Yun Qin was in a difficult position when Jiang Mo suddenly asked her about this. She absorbed the evil energy of ghosts so that the ghosts would dissipate and enter the underworld to reincarnate. It was different from traditional ghost hunting. However, it was not easy to explain. She could not say that she was someone who died once, right?

“About that, I had a bit of a fortuitous encounter in the past…”

Yun Qin was struggling to think of an excuse but was suddenly interrupted by Jiang Mo. Jiang Mo had an epiphany and said, “Oh! I know. Didn’t you return to the Yun family after being separated for 18 years? So you’ve been practicing ghost hunting since you were young?”

Yun Qin was a little stunned by this sudden understanding. She scratched her head and replied, “Yes, it’s like that.”

“I knew it! You’ve been following your master since you were young.. No wonder you’re so amazing. I can tell with just one look!” Jiang Mo looked at Yun Qin with great admiration.

What happened when she was young was just an ordinary story about how the hospital lost her and she ended up at an orphanage. When she grew up, her father, Yun Zhao, found her.

At that time, her mother, Lin Ya, passed away. Not long after Lin Ya passed away, her father married his current stepmother, Chen Yuan, who gave birth to Yun Rou.

Yun Qin always had a knot in her heart over her father’s actions. Although she did not know what happened back then, she always felt that if Yun Zhao had not found a new lover so quickly, she would not have had to stay in the orphanage for 18 years.

This knot in her heart was also the reason why even though her father and brother treated her extremely well in her previous life, she was never close to them and was coaxed around by Chen Yuan and her daughter.

Yun Qin thought that since Hades gave her a second chance, then she must have a thorough chat with her father, Yun Zhao, about what happened back then. Even if the truth would be hard to accept, it was still a matter of their generation. She just had to do her best.

“Oh right, can you catch any ghost?”Jiang Mo asked curiously after imagining Yun Qin’s road to ghost hunting.

“Something like that.” Yun Qin thought for a moment. With her ability to absorb evil energy, even if it was a little risky, no ghost could do anything to her.

“That’s great. So, my friend opened a haunted house…”

According to Jiang Mo’s description, it turned out that Jiang Mo’s friend opened a haunted house. Initially, business was very good, but many strange things happened in the haunted house a while ago. It seemed that the haunted house was really haunted. Later, a tourist suddenly fainted in the haunted house and became a vegetable. The family members made a big fuss, received a huge compensation, and the matter was settled. However, there was another incident soon after where an employee fainted, and the haunted house was forced to close down.

Subsequently, Jiang Mo’s friend invited many masters and Taoists to exorcise the devil and remove the ghost, but they were all useless. All the vital signs of the two unconscious people were normal, but they just won’t wake up. An old Taoist said that their souls were “captured”, but his cultivation was not enough, there was nothing he could do.

“So you want me to go to the haunted house to try?” Yun Qin asked.

“Yes, yes. Yun Qin, you are so powerful, you can do it.”

In any case, she needed a large amount of evil energy to increase her lifespan. Although it was not the style of an evil spirit to turn a person into a vegetable, Yun Qin still agreed and said that she would go over to take a look tonight.

“By the way, your sister Yun Rou… forget it, you should go back to sleep.”Jiang Mo wanted to continue gossiping, but when she saw Yun Qin’s sleepy face and how she’s almost falling asleep, her heart instantly softened and she let Yun Qin head back.

Yun Qin was busy the entire night and was already extremely sleepy. The moment she returned home, she fell asleep immediately. When she woke up, it was already evening. She followed the address Jiang Mo gave and went to meet up with Jiang Mo.

“Hello, my name is Xu Guang.”

A bespectacled man in his early twenties appeared behind Jiang Mo and extended his hand as he introduced himself.

Yun Qin politely shook hands with him and said, “Hello, My Name Is Yun Qin. Are you from the Xu family in the capital city? I seem to have seen you before.”

Jiang Mo remembered and said, “Yes, he is the third young master of the Xu family. He also came to my birthday party last time.”

Xu Guang smiled at Yun Qin and said, “I remember Miss Yun too. I didn’t expect Miss Yun to know Tao techniques. It surprised me.”

“I just know a bit. Where is the haunted house? I’ll go and take a look first.” Yun Qin was given the title of a Taoist, so she did not dare to say anything more. She smiled and gestured for Xu Guang to lead the way.

The haunted house was not far from the park. It was built according to an abandoned hospital. The site was very big and the investment was over $100 million. Originally, the Xu family supported Xu Guang’s business, but unexpectedly, accidents happened one after another.
