So, Qiu Sheng went all out and used every trick in the book to win over Xiao Li.
Little did they know that their underhanded rivalry was, in the eyes of the female performers on stage, like a terrifying silent play.
The leading female role glanced at the audience and suddenly shuddered.
Qiu Shengwencai, sitting in the audience, was gesturing and grinning at the empty seat next to him.
It's like performing a rather avant-garde art form.
gloomy... terrifying...
Countless thoughts flooded the audience, but the female performers on stage dared not stop their movements and could only pretend nothing had happened and continue performing.
shhhhh--
As the drama reached its climax, the music also became more intense.
In this atmosphere, Qiu Shengwencai seemed completely unaware of the danger he was in at that moment...
Wencai had also forgotten the terrifying scene he had witnessed when he turned around.
The two were completely captivated by Xiaoli, utterly infatuated and unable to control themselves.
"Two great older brothers~"
Xiaoli's eyes gleamed with a purple light as she asked in a pitiful tone, "Can you help me?"
"Miss Xiaoli, please feel free to say whatever you need! We brothers will take care of it!" Qiu Sheng patted his chest, full of confidence.
The timid Wencai, for the first time, displayed his masculine prowess, boasting confidently, "Don't worry, Miss Xiaoli, there's nothing we can't do!"
"That……"
Xiaoli turned around and pointed to the spot at the very back of the theater.
"Could you two brothers help me get rid of them?"
Four tall figures stood at the very back of the theater, against the wall.
It was as if they were queuing up, with four figures standing side by side.
The shadows obscured their faces; only their attire was visible.
Two in black, two in white... and they were holding strange instruments in their hands.
"Hey guys, please help me!"
Xiaoli spoke again, her fingers gently brushing against their ears, a wisp of purple energy spreading outwards.
As if stepping into a fairyland, the intoxicating yet irresistible fragrance caused Qiu Shengwencai to completely lose his judgment and rationality.
Unconsciously, the image of Xiaoli being bullied and humiliated by the four big guys behind her flashed through their minds, and they were instantly enraged.
"Leave it to us!"
Without saying a word, Qiu Shengwen stood up and swaggered towards the back.
Until they got close and stood face to face with the four figures.
Ignoring the endless yin energy emanating from ahead, they only wanted to show off their power in front of Xiaoli.
The two exchanged a glance and immediately understood each other, quietly taking out spirit-suppressing talismans from their sleeves.
These are talismans they carry with them, effective not only against ghosts and zombies, but also sometimes against troublemakers.
Grabbing one talisman in each hand, Qiu Shengwen took a deep breath, raised his hand, and flung the talismans at the foreheads of the four people in front of him!
Chi chi chi——
In a split second, spiritual light overflowed, and a turbid aura rolled out from beneath the feet of the four figures.
With the blessing of the spirit-suppressing talisman, the four figures let out a miserable scream and vanished from the spot.
"Hey! It worked!"
Qiu Shengwen shouted excitedly.
Little did they know, they had already committed a terrible crime.
A deafening roar of cheers swept over them like a tidal wave, and Qiu Shengwen slowly turned around to look.
The once empty stands were now packed with people.
They were cheering and jumping for joy...
Then, one by one, they vanished without a trace, like smoke.

Chapter 252 A Cataclysmic Calamity! (A Hundred Ghosts?) No, it's Ten Thousand Ghosts Fleeing!
The drumbeats stopped, and everything seemed to freeze in that moment.
After the female performers finished their performance, they bowed deeply to the empty audience and left as if nothing had happened.
The lights are on.
It illuminated the hazy distance ahead, dispelling the darkness...
Qiu Shengwen stood there blankly, his confused thoughts suddenly gone.
The lost rationality and judgment have returned...
The scenes that had just occurred flashed before their eyes like a revolving lantern.
"It's over..."
Qiu Sheng finally came to his senses, and the warning signals from his brain made his nerves tense.
Large beads of sweat slid down his forehead, and his palms were already covered in cold sweat.
What did he just do...?
"Literary talent..."
"We've made a huge mistake."
Xiao Li was nowhere to be seen in the audience, and the noisy "crowd" had also vanished.
Where they went is obvious even to the most casual observer.
Overwhelmed by fear, Qiu Sheng just wanted to find a place to hide as soon as possible.
Until the night grew even darker.
……
Su Feng opened his eyes, snapping out of his meditation.
Those wandering thoughts returned to my mind, and spiritual energy enveloped my entire body.
With the expansion of his senses, he noticed an unprecedented surge of Yin energy in Renjia Town, several miles away.
Is this the Ghost Festival?
Su Feng was not surprised.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that he had already prepared himself mentally.
Today is the Ghost Festival, also known as the Hungry Ghost Festival, a day when the gates of hell are wide open. At that time, countless ghosts will return to the human world from the dark underworld to enjoy the offerings of paper money and candles.
This is the Ghost Festival in its entirety.
It's normal for this world to be filled with yin energy.
He didn't need to worry too much about it, after all, those ghosts who went to the human world were supervised by ghost messengers to prevent them from causing trouble.
If he were to interfere at this point, he would likely only be asking for trouble.
"Young master, would you like some red bean soup?"
There was a knock on the study door, and outside the half-open door stood Chen Yue holding a bowl of steaming sweet soup.
The moonlight illuminated her hair, making her slender figure shine like a shooting star.
"Aren't you asleep yet?"
Su Feng smiled and got up from the ground.
He didn't go back to the main house to sleep tonight; rather, he did it on purpose.
It's just that Annie is so clingy; she becomes like a wolf at night.
Although he didn't dislike it or think there was anything wrong with it... but being overly immersed in desires would only lead to neglecting one's own cultivation and spiritual practice.
That's why I specifically chose this night when the yin energy is at its strongest, facing the moonlight, to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
"Hehe, how can I sleep if the young master isn't asleep?"
Chen Yue brought in the sweet soup and gently placed it on the desk.
She had a light fragrance about her, and her hair was still damp, indicating that she had just taken a bath.
However, after being immersed in alchemy for a long time, her skin seemed to have been tainted with an unusual medicinal fragrance.
"Chenxing should be asleep by now, right?"
Su Feng walked to the side, picked up the sugar water, and took a sip.
Sweet and delicious, it's the work of Chen Yue.
The difference in cooking skills between Annie and I was immediately apparent.
"Yes, my sister practiced very hard today, so she was too tired and went to bed early."
Chen Yue brushed aside the hair that was obscuring her eyes and tidied up the scattered scriptures and books on the table for Su Feng.
This is her daily job: assisting Su Feng.
Su Feng sensed that Chen Yue had changed, no longer the little girl who only knew how to cry and whine that he had seen before.
Now she has grown into a graceful young woman, exuding a delicate fragrance reminiscent of a young, half-ripe girl.
