Chapter 595: Designing a Trap
e same as it was a thousand years ago. Technology is advancing, but pollution is getting worse. Large numbers of species are going extinct, and non-renewable resources are being depleted. The pressure...Tao Yong wasn't lying. He had asked Hou Li to investigate the identity of the female celestial master before, and with the images Zhang Ze provided, it became even easier to find out.
However, the result was somewhat unexpected. The celestial master who had Zhang Zhe trapped was Wu Lianyi from Longhu Mountain and also Mu Xinyuan's master. Moreover, she had foiled his two good deeds.
Once was a burial ground in Xishan Province, a place his ancestors considered suitable for raising ghosts. It was this ancestor who helped the Southern Liang King find the so-called land of immortality. It was one of their ancestors, a highly skilled person, who found this place. However, before the Ghost King was fully raised, Tao, the accomplished individual, died unexpectedly.
Although records of the location were left behind, later generations were incompetent. Even if they found the place, they couldn't successfully enter the ancestral tomb that had been hidden by their ancestors. Generation after generation, they declined until eventually fading away.
By the time it reached his generation, he was considered the most talented. Adding to that, with the passage of time and geological changes, the hidden formations lost their effect. After five years of searching for the blessed land mentioned by his ancestors, there was nothing left but an empty space.
I only got back a half-dead red fox. From her, I learned that the three Ghost Kings raised in the cemetery were all taken by Wu Lianyi, the celestial master of Long Hu Shan.
And Hong Ji had always held a grudge, so she tried to get even with Wu Tian師 by getting close to his disciples. As a result, she ended up ruining herself and her ghost king realm ghost servant. She just didn't expect Zhang Zhe's affairs to be involved too.
Now Tao Yong has matched Wu Lianyi's person and name, so this revenge is not only for Zhang Zhe, but also for himself.
After hearing Tao Yong's words, Zhang's couple could only say dejectedly:
"According to Master Yitau, can my son's revenge not be avenged"
"It's not that it can't be done, it's just that I need your cooperation. Otherwise, with my own strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to accomplish it."
Tao Yong moved the jade bracelet in his hand and continued,
“Master Tao, you said that as long as you can help my son avenge his death, I am willing to do anything!”
Zhang Zhe's mother, hoping her son would willingly reincarnate into a good life, immediately said.
"Okay, with that said things will be much easier. That's how you should do it."
Tao Yong narrowed his eyes and spoke in that manner, once both parties understood, he let them prepare. After all, this wasn't something that could be done in a day or two. He wasn't in a hurry; to ensure a decisive strike, he needed to prepare thoroughly.
The ripples are unaware that they have been noticed, and before even meeting, their actions have already caused trouble for others. If Tao Yong knew that both Wan Zizhong and Lu Lian were defeated by her, he would probably be even more determined to kill her.
After Mu Xinyuan left, she felt lighter, free from a burden. She directly went into seclusion to cultivate, raising her cultivation level to the Foundation Establishment Stage. However, this wasn't the Xianxia world, so there was no tribulation thunder. Still, her strength was tangible and real.
Although Mushi Nian went to school, he would still call Lian Yi every month at a fixed time to talk about school matters. He mainly reported on his cultivation progress and, for things he didn't understand, he would still ask his master for advice.
Even ripples do not hold back, they've taught all they can; there is nothing more.
"Master, I recently found out that some female classmates in my class played with a Ouija board and they summoned a malevolent spirit from somewhere. It almost killed someone."
"Fortunately, I saw it. I used the formation given by my master to trap the evil spirit, and then used the power of the midday sun to refine its malicious energy. Finally, I put it into the locust tree amulet and prepared to send it to a nearby temple for purification."
This month, Mushi called and told me about something that happened in class.
> When it's time to act, you did the right thing!
But when you make your move, did anyone notice Don't be too flashy.
"Master, don't worry. No one saw me. I only dared to act because of the protective talismans you gave me. I'm only a junior celestial master now and haven't passed the assessment, so I dare not be too ostentatious."
Mu Xinyan always followed her master's teachings, keeping a low profile was the best way to go.
There is one more thing.
Mushiyan fidgeted for a moment before finally speaking.
"A freshman from the arts department confessed to me, I think she's pretty cool so I tried making friends with her first."
"Need a master to help you combine your Eight Characters"
The ripples asked.
Her eight characters are not just a formality by a matchmaker, she is truly compatible. Whether or not you are a good match can be seen at first glance.
"Master, you're overthinking this! I just felt we got along well, so I wanted to be friends first. I didn't think that far ahead. Besides, I'm going to be a celestial master in the future, my profession is special, she might not accept it. Let's see what happens."
Mushinyan scratched his head and declined the master's suggestion.
"Alright, but you have to be careful! What I've passed on to you is the Art of the Child Prodigy. Before it's fully mastered, if you break through it prematurely, your future advancement will be difficult, and its power will be halved. Weigh your options carefully."
Ripples reminded him, not innocently, that the cultivation technique didn't have such strict requirements. She had deliberately said so.
His original self paid a heavy price to get this mission. Since Mu Xinyuan has realized his mistake, he should atone for it with a lifetime of being ascetic!
Musinyuan's face flushed red immediately, and he hurriedly hung up the phone. He decided that he wouldn't call his master for a while.
Ripple had a good time messing with his apprentice and then continued his leisurely cultivation journey. However, Deng Guangxia gave Ripple another task that day.
"This time, the CEO of a leading company specially came to Longhu Mountain, requesting you to make a trip here."
It is said that the construction site they are working on is haunted. Five workers have already been injured, scaring the construction workers so much that they dare not go to work. Most of them have left, and the remaining half stayed only because the boss promised a high salary.
They are working overtime because they have a deadline to meet. They work at night as well, but no one dares to go to work at night for fear of encountering ghosts.
In the end, the boss had no choice but to hire a group of workers from out of town at a high price. He claimed it was to meet the deadline, so they worked in shifts and were paid twice the original salary.
These people didn't know the inside story, they came for the high salary, but something happened that night. One person died after falling, two were injured by a dropped steel pipe, and everyone else said they saw a monster. In the end, even the workers who only worked during the day started having accidents frequently.
This boss also hired some people to perform a ritual, hoping to subdue this malevolent ghost. However, the people they hired not only failed to accomplish their task but were injured themselves. As a result, no one dared to take on this job anymore.
They couldn't do it themselves, so they went to Longhushan and said that they were recommended by a girl named Feng Jiajia, so they came to you! The boss is very generous for the sake of meeting the deadline and says the pay is up to you.
"So generous"hink we three sisters are just decorations”"Well, I told you guys several times that I saw her heading in your direction. Turns out she had her eyes on your place."A middle-aged woman suddenly realize...
