Chapter 599: Eating the Bitter Fruit (Celestial Master Chapt
ver steed. Let us not waste time on the road."Leia had already put the crystal bottle away. She understood why Lian went to the boy's house, so she directly ordered her knights to give their spare hor...Tao Yong watched his own body fall, his mind filled with only one thought: he had miscalculated this time. He tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice and even himself.
The ghost messenger swallowed his fear as he looked at Tao Yong. While the path he patrolled wasn't the main thoroughfare of the underworld, it was still frequently visited by spirits. He wondered how many had rushed to the human world after the recent connection was established.
This is his territory. If something happens, he's responsible. So looking at Tao Yong, who was dragged back with chains and his soul shrouded in resentment, the ghost messenger understood everything. This was clearly a sinister celestial master.
"Damn it!"
The ghost差 landed a punch, reducing Tao Yong's soul by five points. After exhaling, he stuffed Tao Yong into the black pouch at his waist and left it to be dealt with by the Judge later. He needed to call for backup now to round up those ghosts who had accidentally entered the human world.
This incident has nothing to do with ghosts who have wandered into the human world, so we can't kill them. We must bring them all back whole.
"Brother Ghost, don't worry. I noticed something was wrong before I entered. There's a barrier set up around this construction site, it should be able to hold them back."
The ripples make a timely sound, selling favors to the errand boy.
"Is Master Wu telling the truth"
Even the demons were surprised. Not only did this save them effort, but it also turned punishment into a reward.
Of course! Please wait a moment, Ghost Official.
When the ripples finished speaking, she retracted her dagger and flew into the air with her sword. She then performed a series of incantations, conjuring a golden, transparent dome that enveloped the construction site and an area with a radius of one kilometer. The ghosts who had been charging at the dome suddenly realized something was wrong and began to panic.
"Hmph! All of you, come back here obediently, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
The ghost general unleashed his full power, launching a chain that pierced and shattered several of the strongest ghosts.
When the other ghosts saw the ghost messenger's anger, they all obediently returned to the ground and followed the direction the ghost messenger pointed, returning to the underworld.
"Such a good boy/girl this early! "
The ghost clerk let out a cold snort.
As all the escaping ghosts went back, Lianyi gave the few ghosts killed by Tao Yong's accident to the Ghost Messenger, briefly explaining the situation, and then prepared to say goodbye.
"Thank you, Master Wu, for your help. This is my business card. If you need help in the future, just light this card, and I will be there."
The ghost messenger was quite trendy, giving Lianyi a black background with a pattern of red spider lily name card. It was embossed with the small seal script of the Ghost Messenger King, Fu Yong, very high-class.
The ripples naturally wouldn't refuse, so they accepted the card and bade farewell to this errand ghost.
Muxi Nian followed his master to Tao Yong's fallen body. He felt the other's pulse and breath before speaking to Lian Yi:
"Master, he's dead!"
"Serves him right!"
With a flick of her wrist, Lian Ri sent out a fire talisman that incinerated Tao Yong instantly. Finally, with a wave of her sleeve, she erased the last trace of him.
Let's go!
"Yes!"
On the way back to the hotel, Musen was still curious and asked:
"Master, was the formation that trapped the ghost spirits set up beforehand by you"
"It was I who arranged for people to set things up after I entered the construction site. If I had set it up in advance, wouldn't I have alerted that evil sorcerer"
This was the last mission she arranged for Zhang Degui after their breakup, although Zhang Degui was scared out of his wits. However, in order to get the construction site running smoothly, he did everything he could.
Following the ripples' indication on the map, he buried his nine jade talismans at the designated location. Then, he returned to the hotel with an anxious heart, waiting for news.
The next morning, Zhang Degui got up and went to the lobby to pick someone up. He saw Lian Yi and a young boy there, and he was stunned. Then, he quickly ran over to them.
"Master Wu, why did you come back yourself Didn't we agree that I would pick you up"
"Everything went smoothly. You're such a scaredy-cat, you wouldn't dare pick me up in the middle of the night, so I came back with my apprentice. Luckily, the construction site isn't far from here."
The ripples swept across the other person's dark circles hidden behind black-rimmed glasses, and said calmly.
Zhang Degui was told about the matter, but he didn't get angry. He adjusted his glasses and asked with a fawning smile:
"According to Master Wu, has the construction site matter been resolved"
"Well, you can choose a date to start work. There won't be any more problems afterwards. But if there is a safety accident, don't blame the ghosts, it's because your supervision wasn't adequate."
"Oh! I know! Safety first! Accidents before weren't really caused by inadequate safety facilities."
Zhang Degui immediately explained earnestly, they were not the kind of company that treated workers as toys.
You were doing great before, keep it up!
"Besides, this time the one framing you is Zhangshi Enterprise. They probably want to grab this project from you. You can investigate it further; the rest is beyond my reach."
"Understood, understood! Thank you for your hard work, Master Wu!"
Chang Degui immediately replied.
As soon as he heard the matter was resolved, a smile spread across his face. Now that Master Wu had even exposed the mastermind behind it all, what else could he say He immediately took the two of them to the hotel's buffet for a meal and then called the boss to report on the situation.
The ripples sent Mu Xian back to school, and she herself leisurely returned to Longhu Mountain. Shiju also told her that the crisis in this area had been lifted.
Tao Yong, that evil sorcerer, was the mastermind behind it all. He used his ancestors' inherited sorcery to try and control hundreds of ghosts, but in the end, he personally sent himself to the 18th layer of hell, doomed to an eternity without reincarnation.
And the Zhang family couple who funded Tao Yong also didn't end up well, going directly bankrupt and ultimately spending their remaining years in poverty.
And the next day when Mu Xi'an returned to school, he went to class as usual. At noon, in the cafeteria, when he encountered the art student girl who had tempted him, he merely gave her a cold smile.
The girl was startled, but didn't think much of it. However, that day she was arguing with her roommate and accidentally bumped into the table, knocking over a hot water bottle. The broken bottle not only scalded her leg, but the shards inside unfortunately cut her Achilles tendon, leaving her unable to dance afterwards.
The girl cried and quit school, going home to recuperate. It was then that she realized the terror of the celestial master, but it was too late. She wanted to apologize to Mu Xi Nian, but she never saw him again.
After graduating from Mushi University, Mu Xian got his Taoist master's qualification and returned to Longhu Mountain. He inherited Wu Lianyi's mantle and dedicated his life to exorcising ghosts and demons on the mountain. He never married, focusing solely on accumulating merit through his deeds.
He secretly hoped to use his own merit to exchange for a chance for his true master to be reborn. In order to improve his strength, he also lived a life of simplicity and detachment for a lifetime.
When ripples was certain that Mu Xian had truly let go of his obsession and faced his past mistakes, he decided to leave this mission plane when the original body turned fifty.
Mucinean, red-eyed, watched as Lianri's soul drifted from its physical body.
He first realized how lucky it was to have the ability to see yin and yang. Because he saw a woman dressed in a magnificent purple robe with dark patterns, radiating an imposing aura and possessing unparalleled beauty, who subtly nodded at him before stepping into the door behind her, disappearing instantly.
"Master!"nued to maintain the lead. Her third-layer skill, "Weak Wind Supports Willow," was already practiced and could now operate on its own under the influence of gravity, without her needing to consciously...
