25: Chapter 25 Round Jade 25: Chapter 25 Round Jade However, she did not know that due to the earlier face wash with child urine, her face was already full of pits and holes, looking ugly. Now showing such an expression, it was indeed nothing but nauseating to Bai Ziyue, providing no kind of pleasant feeling at all. Therefore, Bai Ziyue’s face twitched slightly, anger surged up suddenly, and he struck down decisively with a slash. The ghost woman’s face changed, her eyes fierce and venomous, as she hurriedly threw out a small round jade. This piece of round jade seemed to contain special power, because when Bai Ziyue’s Slaughter Saber hit it, it actually emitted a clinking sound and was abruptly halted. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the ghost woman moved like a floating shadow, gathering thick Ghost Qi again, revealing her Ghost Claw as she reached out to claw at him. Bai Ziyue exhaled lightly, his face tightened as the aura on his body exploded suddenly. Zen Meditation Posture, Perfection! Driven by the blood within, power surged, layer upon layer, gathering from bottom to top. He threw a punch. With power spewing forth, swift and strong. Qi and Blood poured down, directly shattering the Ghost Claw, crashing into her body, instantly tearing her Soul Body apart. “Ah...” A heartrending ghost howl echoed. The ghost woman disappeared completely, unable to gather again. Was it dead? Bai Ziyue glanced at his Attribute Panel. Name: Bai Ziyue Strength: 1.93 (No more increase) Speed: 1.85 (No more increase) Physique: 2.01 (No more increase) Spirit: 1.8 (No more increase) Martial Arts: Zen Meditation Perfection (No more increase) Immortal Technique: Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique (Uninitiated, no more increase) Soul Energy: 507 Seeing that his Soul Energy had indeed increased, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Soul Energy has increased, which naturally represented that the ghost was already completely dead, soul dispersed, with no chance of resurgence. “After increasing the Spirit Attribute in the morning, my Soul Energy originally had only 318 points left, now it shows 507 points, meaning this ghost woman provided me with 189 points of Soul Energy. This suggests that the strength of this ghost woman was more than ten times stronger than the little ghost I encountered back then, stronger than the Ghost Head Stronghold bandit slain by Li Xu of the Li Family.” Bai Ziyue compared secretly, having some estimations in mind. After many increments of Soul Energy, he naturally could roughly judge that the amount of Soul Energy was related to the strength of the deceased. Of course, more precisely, Bai Ziyue suspected it was linked to the strength of the deceased’s soul, but in his understanding, the strength of the soul often correlated with their prowess. Hence, it was reasonable for him to judge strength based on this. And the Soul Energy provided by the ghost woman exceeded that of the Ghost Head Stronghold bandit who chased him, thus she was naturally stronger. “It’s just those three spells, even ordinary External Forging Martial Artists would suffer losses facing them.” This time, if he weren’t fully prepared, the outcome really would be uncertain. At least it wouldn’t have gone so smoothly. But equally, this encounter made him realize he wasn’t entirely helpless against ghosts. With Qi and Blood far more exuberant than typical adults, he could inflict some harm on them. Then, Bai Ziyue’s gaze fell on the ground where a small, palm-sized round jade lay quietly. Previously, the ghost woman relied on this round jade to block his determined slash. Knowing the great strength he possessed, and with the Slaughter Saber naturally restrictive against ghosts, being able to depend on this round jade to resist, it clearly had some peculiar qualities. Yet facing the round jade, Bai Ziyue still didn’t dare to relax his guard. Things found on ghosts inevitably carried some filth, ordinary people touching them might fall seriously ill. But leaving the round jade at his aunt’s place was obviously not an option, so Bai Ziyue crouched down, carefully wrapping the jade in an overcoat sleeve, picked it up. Picking up the round jade, Bai Ziyue noticed it was indeed different, not only was its texture crystal-clear, even through the sleeve he could feel a certain warmth. It was also carved with a pair of mandarin ducks, appearing extremely delicate, definitely a fine piece of jade, which could fetch a considerable sum at a pawnshop. However, what truly surprised him was that despite hitting it with all his might earlier, he couldn’t leave a mark on it, indeed mysterious. Thinking about it, Bai Ziyue decided to put the jade away for now. This round jade was mysterious, certainly hiding secrets, but staying at his aunt’s place, he couldn’t properly investigate it. After stowing it away, he moved next to his aunt and waking her up. As for his cousin Yuu Mei, she remained asleep from start to finish, quite peaceful. “What... what about the ghost... ghost?” Bai Erniu just awoke, suddenly remembered seeing that ghostly figure before, her face changed dramatically, quickly glancing around, actually squinting, ready to close her eyes and pretend not to see it once spotted. Bai Ziyue saw this and found it amusing, yet he still said, “The ghost has been chased away by me, it probably won’t return anytime soon.” He didn’t say the ghost had been defeated with soul dispersed, there was no need, his aunt might not believe it, so he simply altered the narrative. “Really? What if the ghost comes back?” Bai Erniu was still a bit worried. After considering, Bai Ziyue said, “Well then, here’s a jar of Rooster Blood I specially collected. Sprinkle some at the door seam, corners, and rooftop, ghosts won’t dare to come in. If you’re still afraid, keeping a few roosters around will do, roosters belong to Yang, also suppress ghosts.” This Rooster Blood was something he collected, most of his money was actually spent on this. He intended to use it against ghosts, but didn’t have the chance earlier, now preserved intact in a bamboo tube. “Okay, okay, I will definitely do that.” Bai Erniu nodded repeatedly, truly frightened by this incident. Subsequently, Bai Ziyue was arranged to stay in the guest room, while his aunt and cousin slept together. Lying on the bed, Bai Ziyue no longer felt the initial excitement of ghost-slaying, rather a growing concern. From his aunt’s words, Bai Ziyue already knew that this encounter with a ghost wasn’t unique and similarly many other children nearby experienced it. Coupled with the ghost woman Bai Ziyue slew, whose strength and means far surpassed an average ghost... Hence, Bai Ziyue reasoned. “Is someone nurturing ghosts?!” Bai Ziyue furrowed his brows deeply, instinctively feeling that his suspicion was very likely true. For ordinary ghosts, even with grievances, they would first target those who harmed them, impossible to so largely attack children weak in Yang Qi. Only when driven by someone would they absorb Yang Qi, growing their Soul Bodies, strengthening themselves. “Ghost-Nurturing Technique, Evil Cultivator...” Bai Ziyue’s expression turned slightly unpleasant, knowing he might have stumbled into a troublesome situation. However, even knowing this earlier, he would have still acted without hesitation. People have feelings, when it’s about his relatives, he couldn’t stand idly by.
