The demon drops his walking stick and runs back to the sect. He scolds the child for copying monsters, but the child's parents have already passed away and his aunt has been killed by a monster. The demon tells the child that he has to express his immortal aura to get rid of monsters, and that he needs to eat. The child says that he will not be called "xiaoyun" anymore, and the demon returns. He tells the story of how he has been trying to track down a group of "ghost wanderers" . The ghost wanderers often disappear at night and are called "ghosts" because of their erratic movements. He says that if the group keeps going, he will have to leave the sect and kill the ghost.
