Returning to the house, Zhang Ruoxue had a serious expression and asked, "What happened?"

Su Chen turned his head and asked, "Senior Sister, do you know about ghosts?"

"Of course I do, but ghosts are far inferior to the demon race in this world."

"Only some powerful ghost creatures can cultivate a true form. The rest of the weaker ghost creatures need special methods to be able to see them."

Zhang Ruoxue said indifferently.

In this cultivation world, she had only heard of demons causing harm, but incidents of ghosts harming people were rarely heard of.

After hearing this, Su Chen shook his head.

"It's not that ghost creatures become powerful through cultivation and then cultivate a true form. It's that when ghost creatures reach a certain level of cultivation, they can no longer fear sunlight and can formally integrate into the crowd."

Hearing Su Chen's words, Zhang Ruoxue looked surprised.

Although she was a cultivator, she knew very little about ghost creatures. In Zhang Ruoxue's impression, the main troublemakers in this world were demons.

Su Chen continued, "The reason why ghost creatures rarely harm the mortal world is because they initially cultivate slowly due to their fear of sunlight. But this time, all the spirit stones we sent were absorbed by the ghost creatures."

Zhang Ruoxue suddenly realized why the recent spirit stone business had been so poor.

"Some of those ghost creatures have already left Jinling City to gather other ghost creatures. It won't be long before this place is surrounded by a large number of ghost creatures, and their goal is the batch of spirit stones sent by the Dali Dynasty."

Hearing this, Zhang Ruoxue also realized the seriousness of the situation.

Her face became serious as she looked at Su Chen and asked, "What should we do?"

Su Chen waved his hand.

"My suggestion is to run!"

Smack!

Zhang Ruoxue slapped Su Chen on the head.

"We are cultivators of the Veiled Spirit Sect. How can we just watch as ghost creatures cause havoc in the mortal world?"

Su Chen rubbed his head embarrassedly.

"There is another way. We can take a few more days off and improve our cultivation. That way, we can also handle it."

Zhang Ruoxue blushed immediately, her shy appearance becoming even more charming.

Su Chen was originally joking, but seeing that Zhang Ruoxue didn't refuse, he went along with it and didn't say much.

"Besides, I have to go and clarify things with the people from the Dali Dynasty."

"Who is the person from the Dali Dynasty who transported the spirit stones?"

"It's the Dali Dynasty's little princess named Li Youwei. However, this little princess has a bad temper and is not easy to communicate with."

Su Chen nodded. These matters would have to wait until the Dali Dynasty arrived.

In the following days, Su Chen completely resolved the issue with the spirit stones and replaced the ones that had already been absorbed of spiritual energy.

The business of the Veiled Spirit Sect gradually improved.

Su Chen walked into the house and Zhang Ruoxue immediately greeted him.

"The people from the Dali Dynasty have arrived."

Su Chen nodded. Since the people from the Dali Dynasty had arrived, he needed to go and find this little princess of the Dali Dynasty.

"Senior Sister, I'll go and clarify things with the little princess of the Dali Dynasty."

Zhang Ruoxue nodded.

"Be careful. This little princess of the Dali Dynasty has a bad temper."

Su Chen acknowledged and walked out of the house.

The place where the little princess of the Dali Dynasty was located happened to be the best inn in Jinling City.

Su Chen straightened his clothes and walked into the inn.

As soon as he stepped in, many eyes turned towards him.

It was rare to see such a handsome man like Su Chen in Jinling City.

Su Chen glanced around and noticed that the entire inn was already being protected by guards.

One of the generals was sitting in a corner drinking.

A guard walked up to the general and glanced at Su Chen, saying, "General, this person wants to see the princess and claims to have important matters to report."

The general's gaze turned towards Su Chen, filled with vigilance.

The identity of the princess of the Dali Dynasty is noble, inevitably attracting the attention of those with ulterior motives.

Su Chen, on the other hand, shamelessly walked over to the table.

"General, I have an urgent matter to tell the princess."

"Who are you?"

The general was skeptical.

Su Chen didn't say anything, but released his own spiritual energy.

Immediately, those who understood the ways of cultivation around him showed expressions of astonishment.

Su Chen, who was only in his twenties, had already reached the Foundation Building stage!

The general quickly regained his composure.

"What is your business with the princess?"

"Well, I need to personally speak with the princess."

The general hesitated for a moment, then said to Su Chen, "Follow me!"

Su Chen followed the general up to the second floor of the inn.

The two entered a room where a woman was sitting. She was dressed in elegant clothes, with a beautiful appearance and a slightly rebellious expression in her eyes.

At first glance, she was someone who had been pampered since childhood.

Su Chen smiled awkwardly and walked over to the woman's side.

"Princess, this man is looking for you."

Li Youwei looked over and when she saw Su Chen's appearance, she clearly paused for a moment.

But soon, her expression returned to normal.

Su Chen glanced at the general, hesitated, and then said, "You should leave first!"

The general walked out upon hearing this.

Once the door was closed, Li Youwei spoke, "So, what do you want with me?"

Li Youwei's tone was very natural.

Su Chen got straight to the point, "Princess, do you know about ghosts?"

Li Youwei's expression immediately changed.

"Just say it."

Su Chen smiled and explained the whole story.

After listening, Li Youwei asked, "How can you guarantee that what you're saying is true?"

Su Chen smiled, and at the same time, his eyes suddenly changed color.

Li Youwei was taken aback. Su Chen's eyes were exactly the same as the legendary Infinite Spirit Eyes.

This man really had the Infinite Spirit Eyes!

If Su Chen really had the Infinite Spirit Eyes, he could indeed see the ghosts that had not yet manifested physically.

Li Youwei sat at the table, took a sip of tea, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Report to the Dali Dynasty immediately and have people from the dynasty come to protect this batch of spirit stones. We will hold on for a while before the people from the Dali Dynasty arrive."

"But..."

Su Chen turned his head and said, "The strength of these ghosts won't be low. We won't be able to hold on for long."

Li Youwei frowned, "What is your purpose in telling me this?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this batch of spirit stones will have a great impact on the business of your Veiled Spirit Sect."

Su Chen looked at Li Youwei with a sincere expression.

"If these ghosts absorb the spiritual energy of the spirit stones, it will lead to the invasion of the entire city of Jinling by the ghosts!"

"Just because of this?"

Li Youwei was somewhat surprised.

Su Chen nodded, "Of course, isn't this our responsibility as cultivators?"

This answer was unexpected, and Li Youwei was also surprised as she looked at Su Chen, who had a serious expression.
