Cheng Yang was afraid to ask, his expression extremely ugly.

"They want to drive your soul out and live here on their own."

Zhong Wentao softly answered as he was very familiar with all of this.

He had taken Zhong Wentao's body and become the new resident.

However, not every ghost could do that. It depended on whether the body and soul were compatible or not, and whether the original soul in the body was strong enough.

With the protection of the spirit pearl, Cheng Yang's soul was still very powerful.

"Phew …"

Gently blowing, the ghost that was trying to enter Cheng Yang's body was blown away.

The ghost shattered into pieces in the air.

When the rest of the ghosts saw this, they quickly retreated. Although waiting in the night room for reincarnation was painful, it would be too late if they were to lose all hope.

"Zhong Ming, don't go overboard!"

The door at the end was opened, and an old man slowly walked out. He looked at Zhong Wentao and directly said his original name.

"It really is you."

Zhong Wentao said, his eyes filled with laughter.

The fact that he could come out meant that they were safe.

If they hadn't forced him out, Zhong Wentao wouldn't have been so cruel to the ghost just now, but in order to survive, he could only sacrifice something.

It wasn't necessarily a bad thing for him to turn into ashes.

"Who is he?"

Cheng Yang asked anxiously. This old man looked normal, but living in this kind of place and interacting with ghosts everyday, he knew that he was definitely not a normal person.

"It's his third uncle, the night watchman of the Night Room."

Zhong Wentao said softly. The surrounding ghosts all disappeared without a trace after Third Uncle appeared, the status of the person in front of him was sufficient proof.

"He's human?"

Cheng Yang continued to ask, feeling worried.

"Yes and no."

Third Uncle said, "Although I'm a human, I won't die. I can't see the sun and call myself a ghost, and I also need to eat and drink. I need everything that humans need. Little brother, do you think I'm a human or a ghost?"

Cheng Yang didn't dare to answer as he hid behind Zhong Wentao. He only felt that this old man was even more terrifying than those ghosts just now.

Just who was Zhong Wentao, how did he know all these strange people?

"Third Uncle, don't scare him anymore. We'll hide and kill him. We accidentally came to your place and disturbed him."

Zhong Wentao said in a serious tone. After all, one of them was a ghost who took over another's body, and the other had spirit pearls in his body. They were all people with extremely dense yin energy.

"You killed one of my children. If you disturb me, then you can't leave!"

Third Uncle coldly said. The aura around him had already changed.

The departed ghosts once again appeared on the stage. They couldn't wait any longer, wanting to directly take over these two bodies.

"Third Uncle, I was once your child. Have you forgotten?"

Zhong Wentao said coldly, he did not expect that his third uncle would want to keep him here with Cheng Yang.

"Spiritual Bead."

After spitting out these two words, Third Uncle's goal was the Spiritual Bead.

"No way!"

Cheng Yang anxiously said. This was his and he could not give it to him.

"If you don't leave any Spiritual Beads, I will shatter your soul and make it so that you will never be able to reincarnate."

As Third Uncle spoke, a scepter suddenly appeared in his hand and charged towards Cheng Yang.

Zhong Wentao stood in front of Cheng Yang, using his Qi to fight against Third Uncle.

Spiritual Bead was indeed a disaster.

"Zhong Ming, you have already come back to life, so you have to let Third Uncle get some benefits. With this Spirit Orb, Third Uncle can leave this damn place, and you don't need to be a night watchman anymore. Help Third Uncle out."

As they fought, Third Uncle hoped that Zhong Wentao would give up on Cheng Yang.

As long as he took the spirit pearl and left the room, Cheng Yang would automatically become the night watchman in his place. This was a heavenly gift, how could he be willing to give it up?

"Third Uncle, it's the Spiritual Bead that chose him."

Zhong Wentao opened his mouth to explain, hoping that Third Uncle would understand.

Even if he took out the Spirit Orb from Cheng Yang's body, it might not help him a little.

Third Uncle did not say anything, but raised the scepter in his hand and attacked fiercely.

Cheng Yang had been hiding behind Zhong Wentao the entire time, and listening to the conversation between the two, he felt incomparably apprehensive.

The difference Zhong Wentao had, had already surpassed the limit of what he could accept.

"Help me."

In the midst of the battle, Zhong Wentao spoke to Cheng Yang in a low voice.

"How?"

Suppressing the fear in his heart, Cheng Yang asked.

"His eyes are weak. Find a chance to poke his eyes."

With that, Zhong Wentao reduced his defense and looked exhausted, as if he was unable to withstand Third Uncle's attack.

Third Uncle was naturally overjoyed, and his attacks became even fiercer as he grabbed towards Cheng Yang.

Cheng Yang was grabbed on the neck and flew in the direction of Third Uncle.

"An opportunity!"

Zhong Wentao shouted to warn Cheng Yang.

Cheng Yang immediately extended his hand and accurately poked Third Uncle's eyes.

"AHH!"

Third Uncle screamed. Cheng Yang smashed into the ground as he ran out of the alleyway with Zhong Wentao.

"Catch them!" Kill them! "

Third Uncle's angry voice came from behind. Unfortunately, his eyes could no longer be seen, so he could only order the ghosts beside him to chase after them.

Zhong Wentao did not say a word, and kept running through the long and long alley. The exit was right in front of him, but he could not get there.

The ghosts kept appearing beside them. In front of their eyes, they were all scared out of their wits by Zhong Wentao using his blood.

Gradually, these ghosts no longer dared to move forward. They only silently followed behind, unwilling to let the two of them leave.

After a long, long time, they had finally arrived at the mouth of the alley. With just one more step, they would be able to leave.

"Zhong Ming, you will regret this!"

Third Uncle's voice rang out, almost deafening the two of them.

They didn't have time to react. They quickly took a step forward and left the room completely.

In the next second, the environment behind him turned into a normal room. There was no sign of a room at all.

"He came back to life."

Zhong Wentao sighed as he laid on the ground. He extended his hand out to pat Cheng Yang's shoulder, but was dodged by Cheng Yang.

"What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong? "

Zhong Wentao asked worriedly.

"I'm going home."

Cheng Yang got up and asked coldly.

"Go where?"

Zhong Wentao was shocked, he did not understand what happened to Cheng Yang suddenly.

They had succeeded, leaving those black-clothed people behind. They even managed to leave the night room alive. They should be happy!

He had never seen an ordinary person who could leave the room after entering the room. They were stronger than the average person. This was a good thing.

"I want to go back to the Cheng family. In the future, I don't know you. I don't want to participate in your world. You are a monster!"

Regardless if Zhong Wentao would be injured or not, he turned around and left.

It was only after walking out of the street that tears began to flow.

He was terrified, he was scared of nothing, he did not dare to live like this!

He was afraid that one day he would really die. He wanted to live, he wanted to go home!

Sitting on the ground alone, Zhong Wentao felt very bitter.

He had originally thought that Cheng Yang would be happy that they had escaped death, but he was the only one who liked this feeling.

Sure enough, he was more suited to be alone.

It was the same five hundred years ago, and today, five hundred years later.

"Zhong Ming, you can do it …"

He comforted himself with a soft voice and slowly walked towards the 'Ciji Hall'.

As for the flower that Bai Shiyun was talking about, he was already too busy to think about it.

Inside the 'Ciji Hall', Zhou Zihan had been waiting for him the entire time. When he saw that he had returned alone, he instead felt a little uncomfortable.

"Where's Cheng Yang?"

After looking outside for a while, Zhou Zihan asked.

These two people were as good as the same person everyday. Although Cheng Yang was very narcissistic, he was still a little worried when he suddenly didn't see him go home.

"He's home."

Zhong Wentao said calmly, making it hard for people to tell his mood.

"What's so good about it? Did you go home?"

Zhou Zihan was very surprised, wasn't Cheng Yang kicked out?

The Cheng family agreed to let him go back now?

Zhong Wentao was obviously not willing to say much, so he did not ask, and watched worriedly as Zhong Wentao returned to his room, planning to ask Cheng Yang about it when he had the chance.

On the Cheng Family's side, Cheng Yang came back late at night and was battered and exhausted, shocking a lot of people. Even the Old Master of the Cheng Family got up and dressed, she just wanted to see why Cheng Yang was back.

"Unfilial son, kneel down!"

In the hall, Cheng Yang's father was so angry that he was on the verge of death. His two brothers and uncles were also present.

Cheng Yang stood in the middle, not as obedient as before.

He insisted on standing there as if he couldn't hear what was being said.

He seemed to be more and more similar to Zhong Wentao as he followed beside him.

"Cheng Yang, you are coming back?"

The Cheng family's old patriarch asked, sizing him up from head to toe. He had to admit that this grandson was no longer the same as before.

Having a change was a good thing.

The grandson of the Cheng family could not be a coward.

"I want the branch family!"

Cheng Yang's words stunned everyone in the hall.

What?

Split family?

"Ridiculous!"

"The Cheng family has been in business for decades, we can't split it up!"

These uncles had already been ignited because of the matter of the branch families, they did not even have time to scold Cheng Yang.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

Cheng Yong said coldly, he could no longer see his brother clearly.

Cheng Yang didn't answer, he only stood there calmly.

The matter of his room tonight had made him understand his own insignificance. He had to become stronger.

"I want to go back to the company to work, but I have to get a position of real power. I want to participate in the Cheng family's business."

All along the way, Cheng Yang understood that if he wanted to continue traveling with Zhong Wentao, he needed to be strong.

It would be useless to stay in the Ciji Hall for the rest of his life, as the spirit pearls in his body would also be wasted.

"Alright!"

Old Master Cheng immediately spoke out, causing the faces of Cheng Yong and the rest to turn even uglier.

They were finding it harder and harder to understand Old Master Cheng's thoughts. In the future, would Cheng Yang be able to take over the Cheng family?

"Many thanks, Grand Master. I'm tired, I'm going up to rest. Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the company."

After he finished speaking, Cheng Yang immediately left, and under everyone's gaze, he walked up the stairs.

After walking past the turn of the stairs, at a place where no one could see, Cheng Yang directly sat on the ground. His heart was thumping hard, he was almost scared to death.

He had been doing all the things he did not dare to do since he was born.

"Zhong Wentao, I hate you!"

While complaining softly, Cheng Yang rushed into his room and buried himself in the blanket, thinking about how he should pretend to be at the Cheng family's company tomorrow, and how he should appear in front of Zhong Wentao.
