After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 294 The same group of people
Song Lan is a human being!
How could there be such pressure from someone at the level of a Ghost Emperor?
The ghost messengers were starting to doubt their very existence.

"The soul has disappeared?"

Song Lan raised an eyebrow, her attention diverted by the ghost messenger's words.

She mobilized the Ghost Realm to investigate what had happened since she arrived at the Temple of Longevity.

There are indeed signs of the soul leaving the body.

However, the time was very short, and the whereabouts of the deceased soul were completely unknown afterward.

Its whereabouts cannot be tracked.

The source cannot even be traced.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that a ghost did appear in this place not long ago.

It's just gone now.

Whether it still exists is unknown.

Song Lan informed Bai Wuchang of the result.

White Impermanence's expression immediately changed: "So, there really are evil spirits stealing the souls of the dead!"

Even to erase the life story of this deceased soul.

Song Lan hummed in response, then suddenly remembered something and glanced at Su Xianyun.

"Perhaps, it's not a ghost?"

She said calmly, "All I can confirm is that there are indeed cases of souls leaving their bodies here, but there are many reasons that could cause this."

“Being frightened, having your soul stolen by evil spirits, or dying naturally or unnaturally can all lead to the separation of the soul from the body.”

"A soul leaving the body does not necessarily mean death."

"If you encounter a Taoist master with high spiritual attainment, even if the departed soul has been taken to the underworld by the soul-reaping messenger to wait in line for reincarnation, as long as it has not yet drunk the Meng Po soup, it can still be recalled and returned to its original body."

She raised an eyebrow: "A person's lifespan is only terminated after their soul has completely perished or been reincarnated." "In other words, if done properly, someone whose lifespan hasn't ended can have their soul separated from their body due to a violent death or shock, and then be taken away by the ghost messengers before they arrive. Using certain methods, the secrets of heaven can be concealed, making the state of their separated soul undetectable..."

Bai Wuchang suddenly realized: "Since the underworld cannot cancel his lifespan, it will naturally be retained!"

"So, those who steal the souls of the dead are very likely the same group that stole lifespans before?!"

Song Lan remained noncommittal, her voice indifferent: "It's just a guess. Whether it's true or not, I'm afraid it will require Lord Xie to verify it."

"That's only right!"

Bai Wuchang cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for informing me, sir. I will go back now and discuss with Old Cui and the others to see if we can find any useful clues from these two matters!"

After saying that, he hurriedly pulled the ghost messenger away.

Song Lan scoffed as she watched the two ghosts, who seemed terrified that she would devour their ghostly power for nourishment, and scurried away like mice seeing a cat.

Then, her gaze fell on Su Xianyun and Liu Wu, the two unlucky ones: "Go down and wash up and change your clothes."

After thinking for a moment, she added, "Don't keep this body. Take it to the abbot of Changsheng Temple and ask him to burn it."

Anything touched by the ghost messengers inevitably becomes tainted with yin energy.

It is difficult to remove using ordinary methods.

You can expose it to the sun, but it will take at least 49 days to dry completely. Once the yin energy is gone, the clothes will probably be ruined and faded.

There is absolutely no need to waste that time and energy.

Moreover, the weather will be rainy for the foreseeable future.

Rainy days gather yin energy, and clothes stained with the yin energy of the underworld will attract other evil things from the vicinity to linger and cultivate.

It's better to just burn it.

It's simple and convenient.

They didn't say anything more.
