The two Form Manifestation cultivators flying toward Wushan were Cang Zhen and Qinyao from Lingyin Mountain. It seemed they had shaken off the Ghost Butterfly twins and tracked Ruan Youlan's movements, following the ghost qi all the way until they finally confronted Qiao Ruohe.

The standoff now balanced once more. With the two Lingyin Mountain cultivators standing beside Qiao Ruohe, Ruan Youlan—aided only by the Semi-Transformation stage Wu Heng—could hardly overcome the three of them.
She immediately used a thousand-mile voice transmission technique to summon the other two ghosts, but received no response for a long time.
