"The demon chaos two years ago killed over three hundred thousand people in Baiye County City, leaving not a single survivor. It essentially became a city of death."
After Tongling was restored, some people found a lot of gold and silver treasure within the city that probably belonged to those who had no time to escape. Once this news spread, many loose cultivators and even nearby county powers became interested. Since the Hou Clan wasn't managing the place, numerous people ventured into the city to pick up easy loot."
At first, it was not a big deal. Many benefited and spread word that there was still a great deal of untouched loot in the city, drawing even more people into it. Then, by the end of last year, trouble began."
"What kind of trouble?"
"It became haunted!"
"You mean, by demons, right?"
"How did big brother guess that?"
