Chapter 27: Professional Corpse Touching (Please Read)



That night, the three of them went to check around the mansions of the wealthy families.

After investigating for two hours, we finally got a clue.

"The man's aura is very strong inside the Zhang Mansion. It is very likely that he is inside now." said Taoist Wang.

Li Shaobai said, "Then let's do it! I'll go scare him first to see if he'll come out. You guys lie in ambush outside to prevent him from running away."

Yan Zhe nodded in agreement, and he and Taoist Wang each took one side, ready to take action at any time.

Following the guidance of the tracking rat, Li Shaobai slowly found the room where the Thousand Faces Young Master was, pushed the door open suddenly, and then saw a naked body flying towards him, accompanied by a woman's screams.

Li Shaobai dodged and the Thousand Faces Young Master took this opportunity to jump out from the door.

I think this guy set up some kind of security measures outside the door, noticed Li Shaobai's arrival, and took precautions.

At this time, Taoist Wang directly controlled a red flying sword and slashed forward, forcing the Thousand Faces Young Master to retreat to the ground again. Yan Zhe certainly did not step forward. He knew that he was no match for him and there was no need to take risks. He directly released a fireball that exploded next to the Thousand Faces Young Master.

Li Shaobai had already arrived, holding a sword in his hand, and stabbed at the Thousand Faces Young Master.

He has the martial arts cultivation of the fifth level of the Blood Refining Realm, and in close combat, the Thousand Faces Young Master cannot gain any advantage.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Thousand Faces Young Master made a prompt decision. He took out a talisman with one hand and activated it. His body was immediately wrapped in a layer of energy like water ripples. This was a defensive talisman equivalent to the seventh level of Qi Refining, the "Water Yuan Talisman". It covered the whole body and provided leak-free defense, but it did not last long, only about one or two minutes.

After activating the Shui Yuan Fu, the Thousand-Faced Young Master activated his other hand and took out a small banner.

In an instant, five evil spirits appeared, each of them had the strength of about the fifth level of Qi Refining. The five ghosts appeared together with a terrifying momentum!

Taoist Wang shouted, "This is an evil way, a way that harms lives! Die!"

As he spoke, he formed a hand seal and a flash of lightning appeared in his hand. It was the powerful seventh-level Qi Refining technique, 'Palm Thunder'.

When the lightning struck, it directly split the two evil spirits into two streams of green smoke, and turned them into ashes.

But it did delay Master Wang for a moment, and the Thousand-Faced Young Master took the opportunity to use the light body technique to jump up again and try to escape.

Li Shaobai came up to fight again, thrusting a sword at him, but was easily blocked by the Shui Yuan Fu. At the same time, Li Shaobai suddenly shouted, "Ha!"

This was exactly the 'Heng Ha Technique' that attacked the soul. Caught off guard, even though the Thousand Faces Young Master's Qi training was one level higher than Li Shaobai's, he was still shocked and unable to move for a while.

Li Shaobai seized the opportunity and threw a talisman over. It was the same "Falling Thunder Talisman" that the city lord had given to Yan Zhe. Its power was as strong as Master Wang's palm thunder.

This thunder talisman directly broke the defense of Shui Yuanfu, and then Li Shaobai's sword pierced into the chest of Thousand Faces Young Master.

However, when Li Shaobai looked into the eyes of the Thousand-Faced Young Master, he suddenly became dazed, and the person in front of him changed and became his mother.

He was so scared that he quickly let go of his hand. His mother was the person closest to him, and he actually killed her with his own hands!

Yan Zhe had been paying close attention to the battle, and thought everything was settled. However, when he saw Li Shaobai suddenly let go of his hand, he knew something was wrong. He quickly rushed forward and shouted, "Shaobai! Wake up!"

There was resentment in the eyes of the Thousand-Faced Young Master. He took out a talisman and threw it at Li Shaobai.

Yan Zhe could see it clearly, and judging from the spirituality, it should be a talisman of the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Without hesitation, he used the 'Vajra Talisman' that Li Nansheng had given him before. With a flash of golden light on his body, he pounced on Li Shaobai and blocked the attack for him.

Li Shaobai was awakened by the collision. He first saw Yan Zhe being hit, and then saw the Thousand-Faced Young Master having his head chopped off by Taoist Wang's sword.

"Brother, how are you?" Li Shaobai asked with concern.

Yan Zhe covered his chest in pain, then exhaled and said, "It's nothing serious. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, thank you brother for blocking the attack for me." Li Shaobai said gratefully.

Yan Zhe waved his hand and said, "We are brothers, this is what we should do. Let's go and clean up the mess quickly to avoid any more trouble."

Of course he was anxious to touch the corpse. He went to such great lengths to deal with this matter just to obtain the magic that could control people. He couldn't come here in vain!

When the two arrived, they saw Daoist Master Wang holding up the Ghost Banner and saying, "This is an evil object. I will take it back to the government office to report. The Thousand-Faced Young Master's body is needed by the Lord of Black Cloud City. How about we take the rest and divide it up in the government office?"

Li Shaobai said, "I'll give my share to you, brother. It's just something from a fifth-level Qi Refining cultivator. Don't refuse it, brother."

"Okay, then I'll take advantage of you this time." Yan Zhe said with a smile.

Taoist Wang is an old hand, and he is very skilled in feeling the corpse from top to bottom, inside and outside. He might even be able to feel the scars on the corpse.

Yan Zhe noticed a head flying not far away, so he walked closer and reached out to touch the face, and a mask fell off.

He didn't hide it, and I guess Master Wang could guess it.

After bringing the things over, Daoist Master Wang said, "Young friend, your observations are very careful. You are very suitable to join the Inspection Division. If you are interested, I can introduce you."

"Haha, I'm not qualified yet, and I also like comfort and don't want to take risks. Thank you for your kindness, Taoist priest." Yan Zhe replied.

Seeing him say this, the Taoist priest stopped trying to persuade them. After they packed up their things, Li Shaobai told the soldiers from the government office who had rushed over what had happened and asked them to handle the aftermath. Then the three of them returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

A cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining can stir up trouble only because he has some unconventional means. In fact, he doesn't have many treasures, not even a storage bag. All his things are placed close to his body.

There are still three talismans, a mask, a secret book and a black jade ring left.

The talismans are all from the fifth level of Qi Refining and are not precious; the mask is a low-grade magic weapon that can change one's appearance; the content of the secret book is a pupil technique, which should be the technique that bewitched Li Shaobai.

Finally, no one knows what the black jade ring is used for.

Daoist Master Wang used his spiritual sense to investigate but found nothing unusual. He thought that this low-level cultivator who didn't even have a storage bag wouldn't have any treasures, so he said:

"Since the Young City Lord doesn't want these things, then I'll take these talismans and a copy of the secret manual. How about I give the rest to Little Friend Yan?"

"Okay, let's do it." Li Shaobai decided on this matter.

Yan Zhe was somewhat disappointed. What he wanted most was the technique to control people, but he did not find it among the spoils. After checking, he found that the pupil technique was just a psychedelic technique and did not have the ability to control.

After bringing all the things back to Yan's house, Yan Zhe looked at the inconspicuous black jade ring.
