Lu Zheng soared into the sky, and upon reaching mid-air, he saw a lavish manor situated in the nearby forest. The smoke he observed was curling upward from the kitchen in the manor's backyard.
The manor spanned several miles, consisting of five successive courtyards, with green bricks and white walls, golden tiles and red lanterns, pavilions and towers, carved beams and painted rafters, exuding a touch of nobility and luxury exceeding that of the Earl's Mansion he had seen in Jizhou.
"What a grand manor!" Lu Zheng exclaimed.
Without needing to open the Spiritual Eye, Lu Zheng could perceive the pervasive Yin Qi that enveloped the manor across several miles, invisible and intangible, yet subtle and omnipresent.
A true haunted house!
The key point is, this haunted mansion is adorned with red lanterns, with faint sounds of silk and bamboo, bustling and noisy, with an unknown number of ghosts residing within.
