This shout sent shivers down everyone's spines.
"What kind of ghost? Xiao Shuai, don't scare people!" Lu Xuan couldn't help but scold.
"It's true! And it's a crippled ghost!"
"What are you shouting about? My old heart is about to stop beating because of you!"
A hoarse voice suddenly rang out. In front of Zhang Xiaoshuai, a hunched figure, leaning on a walking stick, slowly emerged.
"Ghost!"
Zhang Xiaoshuai's eyes rolled back, and he fainted instantly.
The old man glanced at them, then said indifferently, "Who are you all?"
"Senior!"
Qin Hai mustered his courage and said with a smile, "We are inner disciples of the Tian Shen Academy, here to register for our accommodation!"
Seeing that it was a person, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Accommodation?"
The old man looked peculiar, stroking his goatee, and said, "Don't you know that people have died here before?"
"We do!"
Qin Ning smiled and said, "But this place is quiet. If Senior can live here without worry, then what do we have to worry about?"
Qin Ning's words held no hidden meaning.
"Follow me!"
The old man leaned on his stick, tapping it on the ground with a clack-clack-clack, leading them deeper into District Thirty-Six.
The dormitories on both sides became even more eerie under the cover of night.
The old man slowly said, "For nearly a thousand years, District Thirty-Six has been uninhabited. I don't know what those elders of the academy were thinking to arrange for you to stay here."
"Didn't you offend someone?"
Qin Ning said nonchalantly, "No, we chose to stay here ourselves!"
"Yourselves, huh..."
The old man looked at Qin Ning, his gaze profound.
"How should we address Senior?"
"Don't bother with 'Senior' this and 'Senior' that. Just call me Old Cripple!"
The old man led them, walking for about ten minutes, until they arrived in front of a few dormitories.
"I live in the building opposite. These few floors, I think, are where most people can stay. Clean them up and move in!"
Old Cripple pointed in a direction and then left directly, ignoring them.
Zhang Xiaoshuai woke up at this moment, looked around, and felt half-cold inside.
"Is this place really for people to live in?"
"Alright!"
Qin Ning nodded at this moment, smiling, "From now on, this will be our residence in the academy. Everyone, clean it up!"
"Yuan Yuan, follow me!"
With that, Qin Ning clasped his hands behind his back and walked away leisurely.
Two figures slowly departed. Zhang Xiaoshuai, Lu Xuan, Xun Yu, and Qin Hai watched their retreating figures, their expressions peculiar.
"Brother Qin Hai, Boss... he, he wouldn't be into... doing something exciting in an exciting place like this, would he?" Zhang Xiaoshuai teased.

"Probably not..." Qin Hai's face also flushed.
Lu Xuan coughed once and said, "Miss Ye Yuanyuan is so beautiful, she's among the top in the Bei Ming Empire. Brother Qin is in his prime, so it's normal if he can't hold back..."
"You guys are so boring!"
Xun Yu was speechless...!
At this moment, Qin Ning and Ye Yuanyuan walked side by side.
In these two or three months, Qin Ning had reached the ninth level of the Spirit Sea realm. His height had grown far beyond expectations; he was now even taller than Ye Yuanyuan.
His relaxed demeanor, with hands clasped behind his back, carried a hint of nonchalance. His face was somewhat innocent, his eyes deep, truly giving people a unique feeling.
Ye Yuanjuan wore a simple yet elegant long dress, her long hair flowing down her back, fluttering gently in the wind. Her cheeks were delicate and soft as jade. Although she was only sixteen or seventeen, her figure already possessed a certain allure.
Her neck was as white as a night-blooming cereus, her collarbones visible between the two sides of her collar. Her slender waist had captivating curves, and beneath the thin chiffon fabric of her white skirt, her long, smooth legs were revealed, perfectly straight.
At this moment, a mix of worry and doubt filled Ye Yuanjuan’s heart.
Why had Qin Ning called her here alone?
Could it be that Qin Ning felt the time was ripe and wanted to make a move on her?
Although they were of similar age, she was nominally Qin Ning’s maidservant. Whatever he commanded, she had to do; this was a fact.
But was it too soon now?
Ye Yuanjuan had always been proud and aloof.
Now, her heart was pounding erratically, and her cheeks involuntarily flushed, making her appear even more alluring than usual.
“Are you feeling unwell?”
A voice sounded in her ear.
“Huh? No… no, I’m not…”
Ye Yuanjuan shook her head slightly, speaking hurriedly.
“Oh, good if you’re not!”
Qin Ning clasped his hands together and said with a smile, “Are you ready?”
“Huh?”
At this moment, Ye Yuanjuan’s cheeks were crimson, flushed all the way to her ears. She whispered in a low voice, “Isn’t doing this too eager and reckless?”
“No, no!”
Qin Ning shook his head and said, “Tonight, we just need to try a little. If we succeed, it will definitely bring trouble upon us. That exhilarating feeling will surely be unforgettable for a lifetime!”
“But the benefits it brings are immense!”
“Ah…”
Ye Yuanjuan’s cheeks were now burning red.
She hadn’t expected that Qin Ning, who usually seemed so cautious, would be so hasty in this kind of matter…
“I’m ready, I’ll start now!”
At this moment, Qin Ning stretched and smiled faintly.
“You…”
Ye Yuanjuan was about to say something, but she thought to herself that if Qin Ning wanted it, it would happen sooner or later regardless of her wishes, so she didn’t speak further.
She slightly closed her eyes, not understanding why a peculiar sense of anticipation filled her heart!
Could it be?
Ye Yuanjuan’s heart pounded erratically.
“Come here quickly!” Qin Ning’s voice suddenly rang out.
“Huh?”
Ye Yuanjuan was so embarrassed she became angry. She hadn’t expected Qin Ning to want her to take the initiative!
Opening her eyes and extending her hands, Ye Yuanjuan was stunned.
Where was Qin Ning?
Looking closely, she realized that Qin Ning had already moved forward, dozens of meters away from her. Only then did he turn around to look at her, urging her on.
Why did this fellow run so far?
Qin Ning couldn’t help but urge, “Don’t just stand there dumbfounded! It’s nighttime now, and that thing is probably at its most honest. We can just grab it directly!”
That thing?
Qin Ning came here not to… with her, but for another plan?
Suddenly understanding, Ye Yuanjuan’s face flushed crimson all the way to her neck.
This fellow…
Stamping her foot, Ye Yuanjuan walked forward.
At this moment, the two stood side by side, at the foot of the mountain before them.
Qin Ning looked at Ye Yuanjuan and said, “Are you alright? Although it’s a bit dangerous here, it’s not a big deal. I can handle it. If you feel unwell, you can go back first!”
“What does Young Master want to do?”
Ye Yuanjuan didn’t understand.
“This place is originally the most favored spot in the inner courtyard of the Tian Shen Academy.”
"A fire burned everything down, but it made me feel strange!"
"That thing has probably been developing for tens of thousands of years, and it's starting to become immature. This time, I will completely suppress it!" Qin Ning said seriously.
