Wang Lei had not been gone long when the clock struck midnight, the very time he had agreed upon in the Forum.
Students and teachers from Qu Liang's school were all following the developments, eagerly awaiting Wang Lei's update on the post. However, as seconds turned into minutes and half an hour passed, the post on the Forum remained unchanged, which was completely unlike Wang Lei's usual style.
Suddenly, the entire Forum erupted into chaos, with everyone speculating about what was happening, posting all sorts of theories.
One user posted: "What's going on? Why hasn't that post on the Forum been updated? Does anyone know what's happening?"
"Isn't it obvious? No news is news in itself. I bet the original poster couldn't handle Qu Liang and got slapped in the face," someone replied.
Another user disagreed, responding below: "Don't overthink it. How could Qu Liang possibly be a match for the original poster? Have you forgotten what happened to those who faced him before? I suspect Qu Liang has been taken out, and the original poster is just taking pictures."
Thus, two opposing views emerged in the Forum, neither side willing to concede. The entire place quickly turned into a chaotic battleground of words.
Song Ji Qiao had just called Qu Liang and had a rough idea of what had happened in the dormitory. She opened Campus Forum, ready to post some photos that Qu Liang had sent her. Just then, she stumbled upon the heated argument unfolding before her eyes. So, she decided to share the photos and posted: "Everyone, look over here! The original poster has the latest and most accurate news: that notorious Ghostly Being has been taken down by our lovely Qu Liang! The curse in our school has been broken, so everyone can stop worrying."
The photos uploaded by Song Ji Qiao featured Qu Liang and Zhou Shujuan posing together in their dormitory, along with remnants of Silver Talismans on the walls. Most striking were the numerous black marks on the corridor's ceiling.
These marks were left behind when I pursued Wang Lei earlier, controlling a Separation Fire fireball that struck Wang Lei's soul body within the ceiling. The burn marks were composed of Eerie Aura and would disappear after a few hours.
However, upon seeing those marks on the ceiling, people in the Forum couldn't remain calm any longer. There were so many marks that they nearly covered the entire ceiling of the corridor. It was clear that such a feat could not have been accomplished under normal circumstances in such a short time.
Yet one observant user noticed another detail. He tagged Qu Liang and Zhou Shujuan's photo and commented: "Hey guys, I was just standing outside the Girls' Dormitory and can confirm that only Qu Liang and Zhou Shujuan were inside. So here's the question: who took this photo? Is there another ghost in that dormitory?"
The onlookers had no idea of my existence, so when they saw that person's analysis, a chill crept into their hearts. The entire Forum fell silent again, and no one dared to dig deeper into the situation behind the photos.
I wasn't very familiar with the situation on Qu Liang's school Forum. After I dealt with Wang Lei, the ambulance Qu Liang called for Zhou Shujuan was about to arrive. I chatted with Qu Liang for a short while, and to avoid unnecessary trouble, I returned to the hotel I had booked earlier.
After freshening up, I lay on the bed, my mind replaying the conversation I had with Qu Liang. My current strength was sufficient to confront an Eternal Ghost King alone. Having already eliminated several Eternal Ghost Kings before, Wang Lei's appearance didn't surprise me much.
However, Qu Liang's perspective was different. She was well aware of the circumstances in the Yin-Yang Realms. In her impression, Eternal Ghost Kings were rarely found in the Yang Realm, with their numbers consistently kept below ten to ensure a balanced development between the Living Persons of the Yang Realm and the ghosts of the Underworld.
If it became known that a ghost's cultivation reached the level of an Eternal Ghost King, the Underworld's Ghost Messenger action team would take initiative—either bringing those Eternal Ghost Kings back to the Underworld for judgment or directly eliminating them.
After listening to Qu Liang's explanation, I realized that Eternal Ghost Kings were indeed rare. I shook my head in disbelief and said, "It seems I'm really unlucky. While others might never encounter an Eternal Ghost King in their lifetime, I seem to run into them every few days. Now I'm afraid to step outside."
The cultivation levels of these Ghostly Beings were generally high; I couldn't figure out what caused this phenomenon. Since I had encountered it this time, I decided to investigate the situation thoroughly.
I took out my phone and called Lan Yue, then dialed Hu Yalong to have him bring my talismans over in the morning. Without any talismans on hand, I could only exert less than sixty percent of my strength. Now that I was about to investigate the truth behind everything, I might encounter Ghostly Beings even more formidable than Wang Lei, so I needed to prepare a solid plan before taking action.
Time passed quickly, and before I knew it, it was already early morning. I got up early, washed up, and went out for breakfast.
"Dinglingling~~ Dinglingling~~" Just as I took out my phone to check the news, Lan Yue's call came through. I answered the video call casually and smiled as I asked, "Lan Yue, do you have news for me?"
" Brother Jiang Ling, I've tracked down that person's IP address. However, it's in a somewhat remote area; it might be a bit dangerous if you go alone," Lan Yue's voice came through the phone. I could tell he sounded a bit tired; he probably stayed up late last night to help me sort things out.
I nodded and replied straightforwardly, "Lan Yue, thank you for your hard work. Just send me the address; I'll handle everything else. You should go get some rest."
Lan Yue yawned and said weakly, "Yawn~~ Alright, Brother Jiang Ling, I'm going to sleep now. If you have any questions, feel free to call me anytime."
With that, Lan Yue hung up the phone and sent me the address she had in mind. I was completely impressed by Lan Yue's efficiency.
Previously, a group of internet experts from Qu Liang's school had tried to trace Wang Lei's online address but spent a long time without finding anything. Yet here was Lan Yue, working alone, who managed to uncover Wang Lei's address in just seven or eight hours. This was enough to prove her hacking skills.
I glanced at the address and then put my phone away as I walked toward the nearby bus station. Now, as long as Hu Yalong delivered my talisman, I would be ready to take action and completely eliminate Wang Lei.
