When the four of them arrived at the door of Li Xiulian's ward,

Chen Hao suddenly sent Ye Yuqiao a secret message—"Yuqiao, I'm going to start my closed-door cultivation."

Ye Yuqiao's heart instantly trembled, and her mood plummeted to freezing point. It took her two seconds to reply to Chen Hao, "Boyfriend, goodbye!"

It was after a long pause that Chen Hao's late reply came, "Yeah, goodbye!"

Their tones were filled with an unspeakable reluctance and sadness, as if they were experiencing a farewell.

A month's time can sometimes be very short and sometimes very long.

Ye Yuqiao didn't reply to Chen Hao again, and his voice never came through again. Yuqiao remembered that next month would be the first anniversary of her and Chen Hao's relationship. The past eleven months seemed so short when she thought about them now; the coming month, however, seemed destined to drag on.

"Let's go in!" The middle-aged doctor's voice brought Ye Yuqiao back from her thoughts, and he had already opened the door to the ward.

Inside the ward, Li Xiulian was restrained on the bed. Upon seeing Ye Yuqiao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing approaching, she who had been lying quietly on the bed suddenly became furious, struggling violently on the bed in an attempt to break free.

"Calm down!" The young male doctor by the window said to Li Xiulian, "They are friends who have come to visit you."

Next to Li Xiulian by the window, there lay a plush toy bear about one meter forty in height. Seeing this bear, Ye Yuqiao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing all felt an indescribable weird sensation.

Probably because Li Xiulian was a nearly forty-year-old mental patient, her plush toy bear also gave off the same eerie vibe she did.

Seeing that the attention of Ye Yuqiao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing was on the plush toy bear, the young male doctor smiled and explained, "Oh, this plush toy bear was her son's favorite toy when he was alive. When we went to her house to pick her up, she was still somewhat lucid and remembered what her son liked."

"I see!" Tang Jing said, nodding her head in realization.

"So when you went to pick her up, did she say anything that made you feel she wasn't normal?" Xie Xiaofeng asked.

"She said she wasn't crazy before, but no one believed her. Later, her husband found out she wasn't lying, and he was so scared that he ran away from home and even wanted a divorce," replied the middle-aged doctor, "She also said that she actually agreed to the divorce from her husband, but unfortunately, in the end, her husband still couldn't escape his fate."

At this point, a pale blue light flashed in Xie Xiaofeng's eyes, as if he had found a significant clue.

"Previously, including her husband, did people think she was crazy because she often claimed to have seen her deceased son?" Xie Xiaofeng continued to inquire.

The middle-aged doctor nodded, his somber face showing a hint of fear as he said in a sorrowful tone, "It seems that was indeed the case."

Xie Xiaofeng's eyebrows relaxed, and everything seemed to become clear: Before being sent to the mental hospital, everything Li Xiulian had said was probably true. She really had seen her dead son's Yin Soul multiple times, but nobody believed her words, thinking she was insane; later, her husband must have seen their son's Yin Soul, panicking and running away from home, just as Li Xiulian had described.

As for why Li Xiulian said her husband still couldn't escape his fate, Xie Xiaofeng guessed that it must have been their son's Yin Soul that drove him to his death.

"The questions you've just asked were also asked by the Onmyojis who came before," the middle-aged doctor continued, "but later, not a single Onmyoji could verify that she was haunted by a ghost, and several times when patients yelled about ghosts at night with an Onmyoji present, no so-called ghost was found. For the patients' sake, I hope you won't come back in the future to avoid further agitation to her."

"Hahaha!" At that moment, Li Xiulian on the bed suddenly let out several shrill, sinister laughs. After laughing, she turned her head to look at Ye Yuqiao and said, "Everything I said before was false, just to fool you, the truth is, I am really sick."

In an instant, Ye Yuqiao's pupils dilated several times over, glaring furiously at Li Xiulian, her eyes brimming with intimidation.

On Li Xiulian's body, she did not see any Yin Souls possessing her,

After a mutual gaze for a while, eventually Li Xiulian could not stand the threatening look in Ye Yuqiao's eyes and averted her gaze, spitting out hatefully, "You're dead meat, all of you are dead meat!"

"Good, I'll wait!" Ye Yuqiao said, her tone extremely cold. She felt that although the words came from Li Xiulian's mouth, they originated from someone else's heart.

At this moment, Li Xiulian began to grow agitated, her body twisting violently.

Ye Yuqiao approached Li Xiulian, extended her left hand, pinched Li Xiulian's chin with her thumb and forefinger, and commanded, "Look at me, then tell me, do you know where your son is hiding?"

"I don't know!" Li Xiulian's body began to convulse, her face twisted into something fierce and terrifying, then she bared her teeth and snarled at Ye Yuqiao, "You dare treat me like this, I won't let you off!"

Seeing this, two male doctors were stunned. They had not expected that the beautiful Onmyoji, as serene as a maiden, would treat a patient this way.

"Yuqiao! " Tang Jing promptly intervened to stop Ye Yuqiao, supporting her and taking two steps back.

"We've asked everything we need," Xie Xiaofeng hurriedly changed the subject, then took the initiative to shake hands with the male doctor, sheepishly smiling, "Thanks for today, sorry for the disturbance, we should be leaving."

Having said that, Xie Xiaofeng and Tang Jing quickly helped Ye Yuqiao leave the mental hospital.

Once the three of them got into the Exorcism Special Vehicle, Ye Yuqiao immediately closed her eyes, focusing intently on sensing any yin and yang energy around her. She wanted to see if anything unclean had followed them out of the mental hospital, which was exactly why she had provoked Li Xiulian on purpose.

However, to her disappointment, there was no suspicious yin qi or grudge energy nearby.

After the Exorcism Special Vehicle's engine started, Tang Jing asked Xie Xiaofeng, "Where to next?"

"Back to J city," Xie Xiaofeng replied, "According to what that woman said earlier, her husband was forced into suicide. Her husband's Yin Soul was personally conducted over by the president of the Yin Yang Master Association of J city. I want to ask the president what her husband's Yin Soul said before it was conducted over."

"Then you go on your own," Tang Jing said with a squint and a smile, "I want to go shopping with Yuqiao."

..

Night had fallen deep.

In the hotel room.

Watching as the sleeping Tang Jing beside her, Ye Yuqiao slowly got up.

She closed her eyes to feel the yin and yang energies around, still no suspicious yin qi or grudge energy.

Then, she transformed into a shadow and left the room, and in the blink of an eye arrived at the Yang Wood Forest located in the eastern town.

At this time, Chen Hao was in the midst of cultivating.
