The next few battles will all be extremely important.

The final winner will receive the title of Celestial Master and will be their future Celestial Master. They cannot be neglected. If it's Zhang Lingyu, that's fine, but what if it's Zhang Chulan...?

They were busy working until nightfall.

The nights at the Celestial Master's Mansion are always quiet. Under the bright moonlight, even the young Taoist priests on night duty can patrol the mansion by the light of the moon.

As one of the most influential forces in the world of supernatural beings, the Zhengyi faction is still relatively unruly.

The young Taoist priest felt this was a very lucky thing.

After he finished inspecting the Celestial Master's Mansion, a burst of fire suddenly shot into the sky from the forest, illuminating the surrounding area in a crimson glow, and various sounds came from within the fire.

"Don't these people know the saying, 'A fire on the mountain, and the director falls in love with me'?" the Taoist boy said indignantly.

Ordinary extraordinary individuals would never dare to hold a bonfire party at the Celestial Master's Mansion, since these people are from various powerful forces across the country.

And since they were guests attending the Luo Tian Grand Ritual, we let them be.

The young Taoist priest continued his patrol as usual.

Suddenly, a person appeared ahead and stood there for a long time, seemingly waiting for someone.

By the moonlight, the young Taoist priest could see the man's appearance clearly. He was one of the outsiders who had been recognized by the Celestial Master not long ago.

"Benefactor Lu," the young Taoist bowed.

"Oh, it's Xiao Qing. You scared me half to death." Lu Mingfei, who had just come to his senses, patted his chest.

"Is Benefactor Lu also going to the bonfire party?" asked the young Taoist boy, Xiaoqing.

Compared to Zhang Chulan, who constantly comes up with all sorts of tricks and insults the Celestial Master's Mansion, the people of the Celestial Master's Mansion prefer Lu Mingfei.

Although Lu Mingfei did not receive the Old Master's approval, not denying it was tantamount to acknowledging it.

They were all well aware of Lu Mingfei's status as a member of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

“Yes, I’m waiting for someone.” Lu Mingfei said, then looked towards another guest room.

The girl inside had been preparing for more than half an hour, and he waited from dusk until it got dark.

Although I know that girls dress up carefully when they go out, this seems like it's been too long.

Lu Mingfei stood there, his palm above his phone, hesitating whether or not to urge him.

However, urging a girl on seems rather impolite.

"Is this Benefactor Liu?" the young Taoist asked.

"Huh? How did you know?" Lu Mingfei asked in confusion.

The young Taoist did not answer, but smiled slightly, bowed, and said, "I won't disturb Benefactor Lu's good time any longer." He then turned and left.

Just as the Taoist boy left, the door to the girl's room opened.

Liu Yanyan wore light makeup, making her look even more radiant than during the day. She wore a Klein blue slip dress, and her hair was tied into a loose ponytail that draped over her delicate collarbone. This hairstyle made her look gentle and virtuous, even giving off a hint of a good wife and mother.

"Do I look good like this?" she asked somewhat shyly.

She hesitated for a long time in choosing her makeup and styling, tried many combinations, and finally chose the simplest approach, then added some light makeup.

The bonfire party invited many young extraordinary individuals, and naturally, they couldn't afford to be outdone at the party to save face.

Lu Mingfei had seen many beautiful girls, such as Nuonuo, whom he could never forget for some reason, and Su Xiaoqiang. He seemed to remember seeing a girl with an absolutely beautiful face, but he couldn't recall her.

Compared to those girls who only exist in memories and cannot be touched.

Although the girl before him wasn't breathtakingly beautiful, she captivated him, leaving him utterly mesmerized.

“It looks good,” Lu Mingfei said naturally.

Liu Yanyan quickly walked to Lu Mingfei's side and took his arm.

"I don't have many clothes, and it's been a bit difficult to choose. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. You're not angry, are you?" Liu Yanyan gently shook Lu Mingfei's forearm, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in his ear, her breath sweet and fragrant, with a slightly coquettish tone.

An electric shock-like sensation spread from his ear to Lu Mingfei's entire body, instantly raising goosebumps that were barely perceptible to the naked eye. The tingling, itchy feeling lingered by his ear, making his heart ache as if a kitten was scratching at it.

It seems he's been teased again.

Liu Yanyan looked at Lu Mingfei with a hint of smugness, and he trembled slightly.

"Ha, how could I be angry?" Lu Mingfei was taken aback by the whispered question close to his ear and asked back somewhat awkwardly.

The slight discomfort in my legs from standing for so long vanished completely in an instant.

"I wasn't angry when that Lei Yanpao provoked my anger back then, I just waited for a... a little while." Lu Mingfei would become somewhat incoherent when he was nervous.

Only after speaking did he realize that he shouldn't have mentioned Lei Yanpao, and he turned his head slightly to look at Liu Yanyan.

"Let's go." Liu Yanyan didn't care about Lu Mingfei's inappropriate topic just now.

Seeing that Liu Yanyan was not displeased by Lei Yanpao's matter, he knew that he had gotten through this hurdle.

You should pay attention to this in the future.

......

Thick pieces of wood, about the thickness of a calf, were piled together, and flames licked the dry wood little by little, transforming it into a blazing fire that could dispel darkness and bring warmth and light.

The logs, nearly as tall as a person, were piled together, and the flames that burned out resembled tongues of fire several meters high flickering in the air.

A cluster of bonfires like these, scattered on both sides of this open space, brings a warm atmosphere to the people gathered here.

Lu Mingfei and Liu Yanyan arrived late; the party had already begun.

The intense flames radiated outwards, dispelling the cool moonlight from their faces and tinging them with an orange-yellow glow.

The faint chill of the early night was completely dispelled by the firelight.

The towering flames brought back fragmented memories for Lu Mingfei.

Under the dark sky, people were dressed in simple clothes, some even covered in blood. They lit strangely shaped bonfires, but what burned as "firewood" was not wood, but corpses, one after another, strangely shaped corpses.

People set the corpses on fire and gathered around the bonfire. There was no sense of desolation or bleakness; they danced and gesticulated as if celebrating something.

Bright, thick blood flowed from not far away, and on that towering, dark mountain filled with the stench of blood, there seemed to be an endless flow of blood.

"Mingfei?" The girl's voice beside him pulled Lu Mingfei out of his fragmented memories.

“…I’m here,” Lu Mingfei replied, snapping out of his daze.

What exactly was that thing that just happened, which didn't belong to my memory?

People don't dream about things they haven't seen before; even if you mix and match, you can't create something so absurd.

He couldn't figure it out, so maybe he could ask Zhang Chulan, the "Humanoid Encyclopedia," later.

A warm feeling emanated from the bonfire not far away.

But it wasn't as warm as the soft arms of the girl beside me.

"Yan Yan, I knew you would come." Lu Linglong walked over quickly, her pink hair fluttering in the wind.

"Lu Mingfei, I'll borrow Yan Yan now." Lu Linglong said, forcefully pulling Liu Yan Yan away from Lu Mingfei's side.

By the time Lu Mingfei realized what was happening, Liu Yanyan had already been pulled into their small group by Lu Linglong.

Without giving Lu Mingfei any chance to react, he could only watch helplessly as Lu Linglong "snatched" Liu Yanyan away from him.

The previous blunder was still fresh in my mind. After all, this was a gathering of young people with supernatural abilities, and there was no way that any trouble would happen.

The girl's warm, soft arms left him, and the only warmth was the fire in front of him. Due to the human gene's dependence on fire, he involuntarily took two steps closer to the flames, letting the warm, almost scorching firelight scorch him.

"Lu Mingfei, come here for a moment," Wang Ergou's voice rang out.

He was holding a few bottles of beer, wearing a new pair of glasses, and his clothes were also new.

"Is there something you need?" Under the scorching heat of the flames, Lu Mingfei felt somewhat lethargic and was unwilling to move an inch.

"..."

After a conversation with Wang Ergou, Lu Mingfei reluctantly left the campfire and followed Wang Ergou to Xu San and Xu Si's side.

Xu Si looked at Lu Mingfei, who had been brought by Wang Ergou, with surprise and said, "You're here too? You've been making quite a splash these past two days, securing a spot in the top sixteen without getting injured. To reach that level is already the mark of a diligent and talented individual."

"Just lucky, purely lucky." Lu Mingfei scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

Xu Si's praise made Lu Mingfei chuckle.

After Wang Ergou and Lu Mingfei sat down next to Xu San and Xu Si, they placed the beer in front of the three of them.

"Rainbow!" Wang Ergou shouted in a low voice.

An invisible and colorless mass of Qi instantly enveloped the three of them.

"What do you think you're doing, kid?" Xu Si smashed the glass beer bottle in half, revealing its jagged, sharp edges, looking ready to fight at any moment.

Xu San looked at Wang Ergou with a solemn expression, his palm already pressed on the soft soil.

"?" Lu Mingfei raised his arm, looking at the slightly yellowish Qi ball on his body, somewhat puzzled.

He turned to look at the almost transparent Qi emanating from the other three.

"Is your Qi indigestion? Why is it still yellow?" Lu Mingfei waved his hand, and the Qi on his body danced around him.

Xu Si felt a wave of embarrassment. "You're as magnanimous as ever. This kid is going to make a move against us."

"Don't be nervous, everyone. I just want to ask a few questions. The ability I used on you did not harm you in any way; it was just for lie detection."

Xu Si put down the sharp half of the beer bottle in his hand.

......

After Wang Ergou asked the question, the answer he received exceeded his expectations.

Xu San and Xu Si were unaware that Feng Baobao's soul had been damaged, and as for Lu Mingfei, who was only working a summer job, he knew absolutely nothing about it.

While Wang Ergou was deep in thought, Xu Si raised his arm high.

Wang Ergou noticed a dark shadow fall on his face. Having been beaten up twice by Feng Baobao, he experiencedly raised his arm to shield his face.

"Wait, I have something to ask Lu Mingfei," he called out quickly.

Hearing this, Xu Si glanced at Lu Mingfei, then turned to Wang Ergou. He stopped fighting and plopped down next to Lu Mingfei, half of his body blocking Lu Mingfei and Wang Ergou.
