Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor

Xuanyuan Mo Ze looked at those people indifferently before asking Feng Jiu, "Can they treat seventh-grade medicinal pills like eating candies like you do?"

The crowd was stunned when they heard this, their eyes widening in surprise. What did they hear? Treating seventh-grade medicinal pills like candy? How could that be possible? 

Such medicinal pills were extremely valuable; even a great sum of money couldn't buy one. And this bearded man claimed his wife was eating them like candy? That couldn't be true.

Feng Jiu smiled faintly. "That's true." She took his hand, "Let's go; I don't find these people pleasing to the eye."

"Hmm, " Xuanyuan Mo Ze replied, not even bothering to look at the crowd again as he led her away.

Song Yiping glanced at his father and said, "Take care," before quickly following Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu.

"Yiping, wait!" Father Song tried to grab him, but a surge of hidden strength struck his outstretched hand.

"Hiss!"

He immediately gasped and retracted his hand, staring in amazement at the woman in azure who had stopped and turned her eyes to look at him. For some reason, her cold gaze made him feel scared.

Song Yiping quickly dodged to avoid being grabbed. For a moment, he worried that Ye Ling wouldn't be able to escape if his cloak were pulled away.

Father Song rubbed his sore hand and took a deep breath to steady himself. Then he said to Song Yiping, "You've been away from home for too long; it's time to return."

Song Yiping hesitated for a moment, seemingly undecided. He looked at the corpses on the ground, then walked up to Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu. "Master Ling, Madam Ling, could you tell me why they lost their sanity?"

After all, his family members were here and he felt uneasy ignoring a problem that concerned them. If Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu knew something, maybe their information could help his family.

Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu looked at each other after hearing this. After some thought, Feng Jiu finally spoke, "The area beneath Hollow Rise Mountain is filled with heavy Yin energy. Over the years, it has turned the accumulated Yin energy malevolent. What's more, there are several arrays in the mountain that gather Yin energy. It's likely someone evil is using these spirits to drain the life force of cultivators."

After hearing this, the patriarchs of several families gasped and looked at each other in shock. Then, they stepped forward and requested with their fists cupped, "Would Madam please advise us on how to resolve this situation?"

Feng Jiu smirked. "If this isn't dealt with, your families will wither away before long." She paused, watching their anxious faces, and added, "But as I mentioned earlier, why should I help you?"

The Patriarchs saw that she was not willing to help and grew increasingly anxious but couldn't do anything. They could see that the couple in front of them was much superior in strength than them; if they used force, they would be the ones hurt. But she still wouldn't help despite their pleading. What should they do?

After a moment's thought, one of them gritted his teeth and said, "Madam, what would it take for you to agree to help us? Please tell us your terms, and we'll do our best to meet them."
