When they saw each other's faces through the glow of the Nether Eye's Fire, Chen Hao and Ye Fei almost simultaneously exclaimed, "What are you doing here?"

The two exchanged a smile, then Chen Hao explained, "The national Onmyoji conference is in three days, and I've come to D City to attend it. What about you?"

"You still remember the incident where the northern area of City H was destroyed by the saliva of wolf creatures, right?" Ye Fei asked.

Chen Hao nodded, then asked with a puzzled expression, "Does your visit to D City today have anything to do with that?"

Ye Fei hummed in acknowledgment and continued, "During that incident, over seven thousand people in our city died. Not long after, people began to report to the police that their family members' bodies had been stolen. Upon investigation, we found that these bodies were being transported to D City. A few days ago, another batch of bodies was stolen from our city, and to avoid alerting the thieves, I secretly followed them here."

After hearing Ye Fei's account, a light flashed in Chen Hao's eyes, and he thought that these bodies must have been intended for the Feipeng Sect to create Soul Corpses.

"Did your tracking yield any results? Where did they transport the bodies to?" Chen Hao asked.

"I had been following them, but then you suddenly appeared behind me and chased after me, so I lost them," Ye Fei replied.

Hearing this, Chen Hao was filled with regret and sighed, "If only I had known it was you, I wouldn't have tracked those people."

"It's okay!" Ye Fei said with a light smile, "I placed a tracker on that truck!"

"Ye Fei, the bodies stolen from your city could be transported here for making Soul Corpses," Chen Hao said with a frown, "By the way, besides discovering the theft of bodies, in this period, particularly a month ago, did you find any bodies being transported into your city?"

Ye Fei shook his head blankly, then thought for a moment before replying, "We haven't found anything yet, but I can ask my partner to check the city's road surveillance cameras for me. We'll look for the records of trucks that traveled from D City to ours in the past month, especially those of the two trucks I'm tracking."

"That's simply amazing!" exclaimed Chen Hao, "Campus Hero, you guys are really high-tech!"

Ye Fei smiled helplessly and asked, "Anyway, you just mentioned something about Soul Corpses and bodies being transported to our city. What exactly is going on?"

After finding a secluded, deserted place to sit down, Chen Hao then told Ye Fei about the Feipeng Sect's creation of Soul Corpses and Luo Pengfei's plan to use the Soul Corpses to take over cities.

Hearing what Chen Hao had said, Ye Fei couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment, "That's unbelievable. So you mean I should ask my partner to investigate if they are transporting Soul Corpses to our city too?"

"Yes, it would be best to get the list of cities to which the Soul Corpses are being sent. That way, we can arrange for the Onmyoji to clear them out in advance."

"Then I'll immediately head back to City H overnight and investigate this with my partner. Rest assured, we'll get the clues and reach out to you as soon as possible," Ye Fei said, reaching into his pocket for his phone.

After carefully browsing through his phone, Ye Fei handed it to Chen Hao.

"They transported the bodies here!"

Chen Hao looked at the map on the phone, which showed the location of the Third People's Hospital near the industrial area of D City.

"Oh right!" Chen Hao realized, "Hospitals are naturally places where Yin Qi and the smell of corpses gather. If they hide the Soul Corpses in hospitals, even if Onmyoji detect the scent, they won't be suspicious."

"I'll leave this hospital to you to investigate then. I'm going to catch the train back to City H now."

"Wait, Ye Fei! How have you been getting on with your school belle girlfriend lately?"

Ye Fei's expression darkened, and he said with a bitter tone, "Huang Yue came to me, and then I learned some things about the Fish-man's heart within me."

"So, who exactly gave you the Fish-man's heart?" Chen Hao was very curious.

"It was the princess of their Fish-man tribe," Ye Fei replied, his face growing increasingly somber, "Chen Hao, the transfer of the Fish-man's heart is done through a long-term... intimate act, you understand. I always thought it was just a dream I had during puberty, but it turns out to be real. So Xiao Ru was very angry after she learned about it, and she hasn't calmed down yet."

Chen Hao was stunned. After a long while, he came back to his senses and patted Ye Fei's shoulder to comfort him, "Don't worry, after you get back to City H, just tell her about the Soul Corpses, bodies, and soul transferring stuff--those sensational matters. Let her know that compared to these events, her being angry with you over this Fish-man's heart issue is truly trivial."

A quarter hour passed.

After sending Ye Fei to D City's train station, Chen Hao hurried to the Third People's Hospital of D City.

Standing on the rooftop of a building opposite the Third People's Hospital, Chen Hao activated his Nether Vision in his left eye. Quickly, he found over a hundred Soul Corpses inside the hospital's morgue: they lay in drawers just like regular corpses, with Yellow Talismans stuck to both their foreheads and their backs.

Besides that, Chen Hao also discovered the remaining five hundred or so different types of Soul Corpses in the basement of the hospital's internal medicine building.

The next day, early morning.

First thing in the morning, Xie Xiaofeng called Chen Hao to tell him that he and Tang Jing had safely returned to Y City.

Not long after hanging up, Luo Luo called Chen Hao, telling him that she and Zhang Chuiping had just arrived in D City, accompanied by twenty-some Onmyoji who had been previously persecuted by Luo Pengfei and the Yin Yang Master Association headquarters.

Afterwards, Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao got up and left the hotel to meet with Luo Luo and Zhang Chuiping, who had arrived this morning.

However, just as the two of them stepped out of the hotel.

Ye Yuqiao suddenly frowned, tightly grasped Chen Hao's arm, and said, "It's Hua Shan! I smell Hua Shan's scent."

Chen Hao's eyes widened, and the phrase "City of Yin and Time" instantly came to mind, along with Tai Shan, who had once kicked open the Gate of the Nether King with a mystical baby in tow, as well as Hua Shan and his subordinates with their supernatural abilities.

"He's getting closer to us!" Ye Yuqiao said again.

"Morning! A handsome guy and a beautiful lady!" A man's voice suddenly rang out behind Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao.

Without guessing, Chen Hao knew this man was Hua Shan. Back in City H, he had witnessed the instant movement abilities of those from the City of Yin and Time.

Chen Hao turned around, looking at Hua Shan with a smile and said, "I assume you've come to invite us to breakfast."

"No!" Hua Shan laughed, "I've always been frugal and prefer the practice of paying individually."

Ten minutes later, Chen Hao, Ye Yuqiao, and Hua Shan came to a quiet, almost empty coffee shop and sat down.

"Hua Shan, I have a feeling that you seeking us out is not for anything good."

Hua Shan nodded, then smiled and, sipping his coffee, he said, "Indeed, it's not good. Last night, someone paid a large sum of money to have you killed, so I'm here to kill you!"
