"An Evil Ghost that crawled out of hell?"
Hu Ma listened, and couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart. He focused his attention on the Mountain Lord but dared not answer rashly.
"The boundary of dusk, the division of yin and yang, hall gods and evil spirits—each follows its own rule."
The Mountain Lord was silent for a long while before saying in a low voice, "But do you know that there is another type of evil spirit in this world? They ignore the boundary of dusk, wander beyond yin and yang, use human bodies to commit demonic deeds, and disrespect heaven and earth, the court, and laws.
"They hide in the human world only to create sin and chaos, to disturb the world. They perform blood sacrifices without regard for human life, even toying with the court and defiling the imperial palace...
"...Sometimes, you make me feel like you're one of them!"
"..."
Hu Ma was extremely shocked hearing this, but this time, he forced himself to face the question calmly.
