I looked back with a grim expression as the old opium pipe's tone became increasingly arrogant:

I dare to advise the Hall Master, do not touch the Tiewa Temple. Back then, Li Chunfeng and Qu Mo were able to break into the Tiewa Temple, taking advantage of the opportune moment, favorable terrain, and popular support. If the Hall Master comes to the Tiewa Temple this time, I'm afraid it will be like walking into a trap.

If the Hall Master doesn't believe me, you can move half a step to the left and look at the hotel again.

The note ended there.

Following the instructions on the note, I moved half a step to the left, readjusted my posture, and looked at the hotel again. This time, I saw a blood-shrouded room appear on the top floor of the hotel.

I was standing on the back hill of the hotel, and the height was exactly level with the top floor. I had specifically looked at the hotel rooms when I walked over earlier, but I never expected that just by moving half a step, I would see such an ominous sign.

The person in that room was about to die, and it would be an unnatural death.

In the next moment, I saw the ghost I had pierced with the Soul-Chasing Cord appear on the air conditioner unit outside the room.

Not only did he know I was watching his actions, but he also deliberately put his finger to his lips, smiling as he gestured for me to be quiet.

After smiling, the ghost stood up, quietly opened the window, and slipped into the room sideways.

A moment later, I saw the tourist in the room pick up a bottle of purified water, walk to the window, and sit down, completely unaware that a giggling ghost was standing beside him.

As the tourist raised the water bottle again, the ghost suddenly pressed down on his head and forced the water bottle into his mouth with his other hand.

As the man's hands clawed frantically in the air, the blood spurting from his throat stained the water bottle red. Before long, the man's hands slowly fell down, and the blood-stained water gradually poured into his mouth.

The ghost released his hand, and the now-empty water bottle crashed to the ground. The corpse sitting in the chair tilted its head and looked towards the window.

The murderous ghost walked to the window and stood again, seemingly waiting for someone.

After a while, a young girl pushed the door open and walked in.

Trembling, she walked to the corpse, knelt on the ground, and kept whispering something into its ear.

The ghost, who had been hiding by the window, walked around the girl with his hands behind his back, pacing and nodding frequently, seemingly agreeing with what she was saying.

After a while, the woman seemed to have made up her mind, suddenly stood up, covered her mouth, and ran out the door.

The murderous ghost smiled slightly, pressed his hand on the corpse's face, slowly clenched his fingers, and lifted upwards, forcibly pulling the man's soul out of his body.

The man knew that he could no longer live, so he guarded his corpse and wailed, his mournful cries echoing through the mountains.

The murderous ghost walked to the window, bowed deeply to me as if taking a curtain call, grabbed the crying ghost, and swaggered away.

Just as the two ghosts disappeared from my sight, I heard a crisp sound beneath my feet—it turned out that the stone under my feet had broken.

At the same time, I also saw the note that had been revealed from the crack in the stone.

It was the second letter that the old opium pipe had left for me:

Hall Master Li, have you seen through the secret of this tour group?

If you haven't, I can explain it to you. This tour group...

What the old opium pipe said was exactly the same as my analysis.

The old opium pipe concluded: Once you enter Taiqu Mountain, you will face choice after choice.

A total of four people from the Two Realms Hall have come, which is exactly two groups of two. Hall Master Li, I'm afraid you will have to make a choice as well.

Back then, Li Chunfeng and Qu Mo also experienced such a choice. If Hall Master Li wants to know what they chose back then, you can only enter the Tiewa Temple to find out.

However, if Hall Master Li is one step late, then you can only report your name at my Wuxing General Headquarters and beg for help.

I'll go ahead. Hall Master Li, I'll return the two tracking Gu to their original owner. Haha.

The old opium pipe deliberately stuck the two tracking Gu on the words "haha," clearly mocking me.

My eyes narrowed slightly.

Lin Zhao knew that I was truly angry and quickly said, "Li Po, don't be angry yet. Let's think of a solution slowly."

Before I could speak, another line of words appeared on the note in my hand:

I presume that Hall Master Li will mobilize the Two Realms Hall to launch a surprise attack on Wuxing. I wonder if my guess is correct?

Lin Zhao's expression changed slightly. "Is Wuxing going to attack the Two Realms Hall?"

I said indifferently, "Send the information here to Lao Liu and let him handle it! We're going to find someone."

Lin Zhao followed me closely, saying, "Where are you going to find someone? We don't have our tracking Gu anymore. It's too dangerous for you to continue chasing."

I sneered, "That old opium pipe made a mistake. Before showing off to me, he should have asked how many masters I have. My ninth master is called Ghost Eye Wang, not Blind Eye Wang."

Everyone in the martial world knows that Ghost Eye Wang has outstanding eyesight and is good at using pupil techniques. But they don't know his other identity—a hunter.

Ghost Eye Wang's real skill lies in his tracking technique. He never fails when he hunts down his opponents. Even if the opponent escapes for a year, he can leisurely chase after them for a year.

Most of Ghost Eye Wang's opponents die by suicide, not because he uses pupil techniques to control them, but because his opponents are driven to the brink of collapse by him and have no choice but to commit suicide to escape.

I'd like to see who can outsmart who, me or the old opium pipe?
