The scholar looked at Wei Yuan suspiciously, while Wei Yuan forced himself to remain calm and said, "I just crossed the Heart Demon Tribulation, so there may be lingering effects. Since you've come here, your woman and child must have been captured by me. Which ones are they specifically?"
"Do you think I'll tell you?"
"It doesn't matter; sooner or later, I can figure it out. But looking at you like this, Lord Hong Ye, you must have also been human once, right?"
Hong Ye replied, "It's just a shell. The appearance doesn't matter."
Wei Yuan suddenly became wary, scrutinizing Hong Ye closely, and asked, "Are you also with the Pure Land Sect?"
"Of course not. I just said it because of the way you look now."
Look now? Wei Yuan had a sudden bad feeling. He reached up to touch his head and, sure enough, it was smooth to the touch — he was bald!
