Chapter 525 Guessing and Conjecture
Yunxi scoffed, expressing her dissatisfaction with these people's way of doing things. They hadn't even figured out who was right or wrong before coming to cause her trouble. It was only because she had a good temper that she didn't overthrow them long ago.

The man in the suit naturally heard Yun Xi's clearly sarcastic chuckle, but he still coughed lightly and replied:

“Master Yu will naturally be punished for his wrongdoings, but it is true that Ms. Ranxi did indeed capture a soul without authorization, which is why we stopped you.”

This explains their actions, and it's not just because Master Yu warned them.

Yunxi looked at the middle-aged man and said:
"You haven't answered my questions yet: Who gave you the qualifications to appoint 'Soul Collectors'? What standards does your special department use to judge the qualifications of a 'Soul Collector'? Where do those qualified to collect souls send the ghosts they collect? And how do you deal with the souls you collect?"

Faced with Yunxi's questioning, the middle-aged man frowned, but he still politely replied:

"Before we answer your questions, please release the ghosts you have privately collected. We will not answer your questions until we know your purpose in collecting ghosts."

Yunxi narrowed her almond-shaped eyes, her gaze towards the middle-aged man somewhat unfriendly. She was considering whether it would be more convenient to directly search his soul.

At that moment, the twin boys immediately flashed behind the middle-aged man, glaring at Yun Xi, wary of her making a sudden move.

The scene was eerily quiet when, just then, a hairy head popped out of the spirit beast pouch—it was the little panda Lili.

After Yunxi formed a bond with the spirit of the "Misty Snowfield", she did not send Lili back to her space. She originally intended to keep Lili outside to accompany her, treating her as a spirit pet she had acquired in the "Misty Snowfield", so that it would be convenient for Lili to travel outside in the future.

After the secret realm and space successfully began to merge, she thought she would return to the polar gale belt. However, at this critical moment, a black hole appeared in the gale, sucking her and Xun Kun, who was closest to her, into it. She subconsciously activated her golden armor to protect herself and stuffed the spirit beast pouch into her bosom.

Fortunately, the golden armor effectively blocked most of the spatial gale, allowing her to enter Weilan Star in a conscious state. Lili had been unconscious before, but for some reason, she woke up now. Since the spirit beast pouch was not sealed, Lili was able to easily stick her head out.

Yunxi withdrew her unfriendly gaze, patted Lili's head, and said:
"You're awake? Are you alright?"

Lili twitched its little black ears, popped out of the spirit beast pouch, stretched lazily on Yunxi's lap, then flicked its long black and brown tail. It then sat down beside Yunxi, its dark, grape-like eyes sweeping over the people in front of it. It sniffed, then turned to Yunxi and said:

"Venerable One, why are their souls in this state?"

The five people opposite only saw a furry little creature crawl out of a palm-sized bag, then sit down next to Ms. Ranxi in a rather serious manner. After glancing at them, it started making "woof woof" sounds at Ranxi.

It seemed that only Yunxi could understand Lili's words at the scene. She raised an eyebrow and asked:

"Lili, what's wrong with them (their souls)?"

Lili flicked her tail and said:

"How should I put it? Their souls are like they're covered in filth, incredibly old, and were forcibly stuffed into their current bodies without being purified, which greatly affects their lifespan."

This was also the first time Lili had encountered this situation, and she didn't explain it very clearly, but Yunxi understood. Her temples throbbed twice, and her gaze towards the five people opposite her was full of complex emotions.

The five people opposite were momentarily stunned, inexplicably feeling that they were being pitied by the woman, but they didn't know why they were being pitied.

Yunxi patted Lili's head, took out a jade bottle from her storage bracelet, opened the seal, poured out the thirty-two ghosts she had collected earlier, and said to Lili beside her:

"Do you see any problems with these?" The twin boys' mouths dropped open. They hadn't expected the woman in front of them to be so unpredictable. Just a moment ago she seemed unwilling to hand over the ghosts, but now she was quite decisive and released them all.

The two immediately tapped the spatial button on their chests, and a black metal box appeared in their hands. They quickly pressed the box twice, and after the lid sank, a black ring appeared. The ring began to flow, and the aimless wandering ghosts were sucked into the black box.

A glint flashed in Li Li's dark eyes as she took in the scattered ghosts, then turned to Yun Xi and said:
"Venerable One, these ghosts are still relatively normal. At least the impurities in their souls have been cleansed. Did you do that, Venerable One?"

"Yes, I summoned heavenly lightning to strike it."

Yunxi readily admitted it.

"Tsk tsk, they're lucky they weren't chopped to pieces."

"I only showed mercy. These ghosts were previously turned into soul puppets for people to use, and they probably did a lot of bad things. They are shrouded in filth. Fortunately, they were forced into it, so there is still hope for them. That's why I didn't disperse them."

She had already defeated the female ghost on set. The ghost clearly had its own consciousness, and it's unclear where the woman surnamed Yu found it.

At this moment, the twin brothers had already collected all the scattered ghosts into the box and looked at Yunxi with strange expressions.

Yunxi put the jade bottle that sealed the ghost into her storage bracelet, and looked at the people opposite her, saying:
"Now that you have the ghost, can you answer my question?"

The middle-aged man frowned, finding the woman in front of him somewhat troublesome. They had previously been confident in forcibly keeping her there, but he had just abandoned that idea.

"What? Is my question that hard to answer?"

Yun Xi asked.

"I'm sorry, your question involves the security and secrets of Azure Star, and I cannot answer it."

The middle-aged man ultimately gave this very official answer.

Yunxi wasn't annoyed; she curled the corners of her lips and said:
"It doesn't matter if you don't answer. I was going to help you, but it seems you don't need it."

"With paranormal events occurring frequently on Planet Blue, do you really think it's just a problem with the magnetic field? And isn't the lifespan of Planet Blue's inhabitants decreasing year by year? And many people ultimately choose suicide due to mental health issues?"

As Yunxi asked the question, the expressions of the five people opposite her changed. The middle-aged man and the man and woman in black suits were able to barely manage their expressions, but the twin boys, being young, practically had "How do you know?" written all over their foreheads.

Yunxi had already gotten the answer from the five people's expressions, so she picked up Lili and stood up, saying:

"Although I don't know what you're hiding, some natural laws are irreversible. There must be something wrong with your own people. According to my calculations, you can only hold on for a maximum of one hundred years. After one hundred years, this place will become a ghost town."

After Yunxi finished speaking, she carried Lili towards the elevator. She decided to go find her friends first. She wanted to find a way back to the Weiyu Realm before the Blue Star turned into a ghost realm.
