Chapter 73: Chapter 71: What, Am I Supposed to Walk If I Don’t Drive?
Mo Lin’s thoughts were quite different from Zhuge Mingyue’s.
It’s not that Mo Lin had anything against Zhuge Mingyue.
Because he possessed the Thunder Talisman.
That thing was probably a treasure of the Thunder Talisman Celestial Master Mansion.
Who knows, if Zhuge Mingyue knew the Thunder Talisman was in Mo Lin’s hands, would she still be as calm as she is now?
"Can you tell me why that ghost didn’t attack you just now?" Zhuge Mingyue asked Mo Lin again.
"Can you tell me how you use the Thunder Talisman?" Mo Lin countered to Zhuge Mingyue.
"Qi Manipulation Technique." Zhuge Mingyue answered Mo Lin decisively without any hesitation.
"If you can teach me the Qi Manipulation Technique, I’ll tell you why that ghost didn’t attack me just now." Mo Lin casually said.
"Alright." Zhuge Mingyue agreed without any hesitation, very readily.
In her view, even if Mo Lin knew the Qi Manipulation Technique, it wasn’t a big deal.
After all, the Qi Manipulation Technique was just a simple basic cultivation technique.
Without the Thunder Talisman, the Qi Manipulation Technique was rather useless.
Optional.
That’s why Zhuge Mingyue agreed so readily with Mo Lin.
"Ah...." Mo Lin was suddenly a bit at a loss.
Agreed so quickly?
"Is the Qi Manipulation Technique that worthless?" Mo Lin said slowly.
"It’s just an ordinary entry-level cultivation technique, nothing special. The Jin Ancestral Hall’s cultivation technique is called the Energy Introduction Chapter, and it’s the same as the Qi Manipulation Technique, just a different name."
"Most Daoist sects know this technique; it’s not uncommon." Zhuge Mingyue explained to Mo Lin.
Mo Lin’s eyes lit up.
If he learned the Qi Manipulation Technique, did that mean he could use the Thunder Talisman?
Roar...
"Can you tell me now?" Zhuge Mingyue asked Mo Lin.
"That ghost is afraid of me." Mo Lin replied slowly.
It’s that simple.
The ghost didn’t resist mainly because she was afraid of Mo Lin.
Anyway, she was destined to be captured by Mo Lin, why not just cooperate?
Why insist on getting beaten and then captured by Mo Lin?
"That’s all?" Zhuge Mingyue had thought there might be some unknown secret.
She didn’t expect it to be so simple.
"Yes, that’s it." Mo Lin nodded in response.
Zhuge Mingyue couldn’t help but glance at Mo Lin a few more times.
A Nightmare Level ghost afraid of Mo Lin, didn’t this mean Mo Lin was stronger than a Nightmare Level ghost?
"Let’s exchange contact information, and I’ll send you the Qi Manipulation Technique. You can learn it on your own."
So Mo Lin and Zhuge Mingyue exchanged contact information.
Zhuge Mingyue sent the Qi Manipulation Technique to Mo Lin.
It was just a few hundred words.
Mainly about an understanding of qi and then practicing Qi Manipulation.
And it also came with learning videos.
Suddenly... Zhuge Mingyue’s expression tensed up.
She took out her dim Fake Thunder Talisman.
Her eyes vigilantly staring straight ahead, as if facing a formidable enemy.
A black figure appeared ahead in the darkness.
A man dressed in black slowly appeared.
This man had a black blade at his waist, with the word ’messenger’ written on his clothes.
The Underworld, Ghost Messenger...
Li Xue approached Mo Lin and kneeled on one knee.
"Master... I’ve found out the details."
Next to him, Zhuge Mingyue’s eyes almost popped out.
That Ghost Messenger’s use of the word ’Master’... left Zhuge Mingyue’s mind reeling.
A Ghost Messenger calling a living person... Master?
What’s going on?
Mo Lin continuously shocked her.
Previously, Mo Lin had Li Xue investigate who had backstabbed him when he was captured.
"The people who captured me have come to Yun Chuan, and those people will probably go to the Jin Ancestral Hall tomorrow." Li Xue reported again.
"Do you know their identities?" Mo Lin asked.
"They are two big ghosts from the Ghost Realm, and a group of people from Ziwu Mansion."
"Ziwu Mansion?" It was the first time Mo Lin had heard that name.
Li Xue explained to Mo Lin: "Ziwu Mansion is the place affiliated with the Ghost Witch.
The Ghost Witch used to be part of our Yedou; they are the Underworld’s representatives in the mortal world."
Next to him, Zhuge Mingyue chimed in: "Before ghosts appeared in the mortal world, Ghost Witches were a profession that helped communicate between humans and ghosts.
For example, taking living people to the Underworld to see their relatives, doing such spiritual communication tasks."
"Later, after ghosts appeared in the mortal world, Ghost Witches, through spiritual communication, summoned powerful ghosts from the Underworld to the mortal world, becoming a force."
"Every place has a Ghost Witch, but the name of the force built by Ghost Witches varies from place to place."
The force built by the Yun Chuan Ghost Witch is called Ziwu Mansion.
"Go ahead." Mo Lin prompted Li Xue again.
"The Ghost Witch calculated my whereabouts, and then teamed up with those from the Ghost Realm to capture me." Li Xue said, after expending great effort and a lot of Netherworld Currency.
This information had only just been discovered.
At this moment, Mo Lin understood.
Why the ghosts from the Ghost Realm could always find the Yin Messengers.
It turned out to be because of the Ghost Witch’s interference.
"Let’s go to Ziwu Mansion." Mo Lin said coldly.
Beside him, Zhuge Mingyue, seeing Mo Lin intent to go to Ziwu Mansion, quickly warned: "Ziwu Mansion is dangerous, are you sure you want to go?"
"How is it dangerous?"
"The Ghost Witch can communicate spiritually and has means of raising ghosts. Ziwu Mansion has at least two Nightmare Level ghosts, and countless little ghosts.
If you go, you might get entangled."
She spoke very tactfully.
In fact, she wanted to express that if Mo Lin went to Ziwu Mansion, he might die.
The Ghost Witch is a very special profession.
Even before ghosts descended on Earth, these people were dealing with ghosts.
Raising ghosts is what they are most adept at.
Even the Thunder Talisman Celestial Master Mansion would prefer not to offend the Ghost Witch.
"That’s convenient... I’m afraid of nothing but ghosts." Mo Lin said coldly.
He, a dignified Yin Department officer, afraid of ghosts?
What a joke.
"Li Xue, give me the clothes." Mo Lin said coldly to Li Xue.
"Yes, sir."
Li Xue, from who knows where, brought out a red official robe.
He held the robe in his hands and presented it to Mo Lin.
When Mo Lin put on the Yin Department robe, his whole aura underwent a dramatic change.
The red Yin Department robe was conspicuous at night.
Paired with his blue longsword at his waist, it gave off an invisible deterrent force.
"Yin Department..." Zhuge Mingyue muttered to herself.
This was her first time seeing a Yin Department officer with her own eyes.
The visual impact was immense.
At this moment, she finally understood why Mo Lin said earlier that the female ghost was afraid of him.
Yin Department seemed to be naturally suited to capturing ghosts, right?
In the eyes of ghosts, Yin Department must be a high-ranking position.
At this moment, Zhuge Mingyue clearly felt the gap between herself and Mo Lin.
This was a gap in strength.
"Let’s go to Ziwu Mansion." Mo Lin said slowly.
Beside him, Zhuge Mingyue followed Mo Lin to join in the fun.
Mo Lin drove down the mountain...
"Driving?" Zhuge Mingyue said, puzzled.
"What else? If not driving, should I walk?" Mo Lin quipped.
He wasn’t a ghost; he couldn’t fly or teleport!
"True..." Zhuge Mingyue realized.
With a distance of over a dozen kilometers, he couldn’t possibly walk, right?
