Mu Yun’s words caused a fleeting look of shock to pass over Lu Xuan’s face, but he quickly returned to his usual expression.
Very well, with this, the task given by the Director has finally been completed.
After all, the Director only sent him to find out the identity of this calamity-level anomaly.
If it turns out to be Princess Xingyue, after dealing with this ghostly entity, he’ll also need to make a trip to Mingxin Prefecture to handle the matter with the Wen Family.
"Hmm!"
"Mr. Mu, you may leave now."
"I will handle this situation myself. You should return and gather all the Profound Bird Guard to prepare for the aftermath."
As soon as Lu Xuan finished speaking, an intense heat suddenly enveloped the surroundings.
The force of the Primordial Spirit surged furiously within him, a colossal power roaring out from Lu Xuan’s body, causing the air around him to tremble.
Looking around at Haoran Mansion, the entire place was deathly silent, devoid of any signs of human life.
Lu Xuan had anticipated this mont the second he stepped into the city mansion.
The entire city had already been thoroughly perated by the ghost realm’s icy, decaying underworld energy.
Every inch of land, every structure, exuded an eerie vibe, clearly turned into a part of the ghost realm.
Earlier, the dense and endless black ghost shadows appeared.
Lu Xuan was well aware that these dreadful ghost shadows were recently living, breathing humans.
Twisted into strange ghostly entities by the ghost realm’s sinister power.
Sigh!
This was the first ti Lu Xuan had encountered such a devastating occurrence; an entire city of people.
At this point, Lu Xuan was powerless to change anything; all he could do was quickly deal with this matter.
At that mont, the space around Lu Xuan and Mu Yun changed eerily without warning.
Everything around them began to blur slowly, entering a peculiar state.
From towering human edifices to solid ground.
Even in the seemingly empty void, dynamic shadowy images slowly erged.
These residual images were outlined as if by the pen of ti, carrying a sense of reality mixed with mystery.
Each fra flowed slowly, vivid and alive.
As though soone’s sealed mories were being released unreservedly at that mont.
The next mont, amidst countless images, two won’s silhouettes appeared simultaneously.
Their faces were clear, and even their conversation reached Lu Xuan’s ears without hindrance.
One of the won in the image was none other than the pale, chilling face suspended high above the sky.
Suddenly, a soft, lodious female voice gently swept through like a mountain brook.
In the slowly flowing illusory images, another woman gently parted her crimson lips.
"Lan’Er, Mochen seems to have changed. Nowadays, I find him sowhat hard to before."
This voice carried a touch of ethereal gentleness, echoing softly in this vast world.
This woman’s graceful figure was wrapped in a dark black splendid dress, akin to a mysterious nebula in the night sky, tightly fitting her body.
Every stitch and thread of the intricate embroidery on her dark black dress wove exquisite and complex patterns.
Several tiny black birds adorned it, each with varying poses.
So were poised to fly, so craning their necks in song; each black bird seed to be imbued with vibrant life.
Dancing and flitting gracefully through the woman’s exquisitely fine attire.
An innate noble aura radiated around her at all tis, inspiring a sense of awe.
Every mont in this imagery highlighted the woman’s extraordinary identity and status, a noble presence she was born with.
"Princess, have you forgotten what Lan’Er told you last ti?"
Upon hearing this, Princess Xingyue’s brows furrowed slightly, then she fell into deep thought.
"You an the incident where Mochen accompanied the master to et the governors from all over the Eastern Region and the City Mansion Xuan Bird Guards?"
In the image, the woman referred to as Lan’Er bent slightly, respectfully responding, "Yes, Princess!"
She paused, then a cautious look flashed in her eyes, and she said in a low voice, "Lan’Er also secretly bribed a few maids, who witnessed certain things firsthand."
The princess’s brows furrowed, eyes full of doubt. Just then, the image shifted to the Wen Family’s estate.
As imperial kin, the Wen Family was throwing a grand banquet, extravagantly entertaining governors from the Eastern Region.
The atmosphere from the scene seed lively with everyone exchanging pleasantries and toasting, hidden beneath this surface prosperity was an indescribable oddness.
Such a grand commotion was truly perplexing, and seed to harbor unspeakable secrets.
"Lan’Er, pretend you don’t know about this for now and let ponder more."
Princess Xingyue spoke softly, her beautiful eyes like autumn water flashing a multitude of complex, indistinct emotions, a mix of worry, contemplation, and hidden disappointnt.
She slightly raised her head, gazing into the distance, gently biting her lower lip, surrounded by a faint layer of lancholy.
Clearly, Princess Xingyue was weighing sothing, her mind filled with conflict and struggle.
"Yes, Princess!"
In the next instant, the image shifted abruptly from a luxurious, ornately decorated room to a completely unfamiliar space.
The room presented a shocking scene; clothing fragnts were scattered haphazardly across the floor.
