A strange scene unfolded. The powerful minister was pinned to the spot, unable to move, while his shadow on the ground flickered strangely. It then calmed down again, so quickly it was dizzying. However, the moment the divine spear stabbed, the shadow suddenly let out a sharp howl, and the entire shadow began to twist wildly, trying to break free from the divine spear's restraints. Li Shu raised an eyebrow. This ghostly shadow seemed to have some power; even the divine spear couldn't calm it down. But it didn't matter. Even if the divine spear couldn't stop it, she had something else. Li Shu's mind moved, and an egg-sized weight appeared in her hand. The Taishan Weight, which could suppress all strange things, could suppress them. Li Shu raised his hand and threw the Taishan Weight onto the shadow's back. The shadow, which had been twisting wildly like a maggot, instantly quieted down. All this happened in an instant. The powerful minister felt a little heavy. He had originally thought that it was just that he had been too busy recently, which had affected his mentality, but he didn't expect that he had actually been caught without even realizing it. The spirit was hidden in his shadow, having previously shown no signs of abnormality. Its ability was supposed to subtly influence the mind. His journey to becoming a ghost master wasn't smooth, and after becoming one, he'd experienced countless strange events. His mind had long since hardened to iron, so how could such a strange incident cause such a drastic change? He hadn't noticed anything unusual. He shuddered to think, if he hadn't come to the Master today, if the Master hadn't discovered his abnormality, how would his mind have crumbled over time? The more Quan Chen thought about it, the more alarmed he became. His gaze towards Li Shu was filled with gratitude. Perhaps he would discover something unusual later, but this spirit was so cunning and had been lurking for so long. Dealing with it then wouldn't be easy. "Thank you, Master." He silently noted this, owing the Master another favor. Li Shu didn't even look up, staring intently at Quan Chen's shadow. She had encountered spirits that exploited human shadows before. In District 11, she had even hunted a shadow-like spirit and harnessed its power for her own benefit. But the abilities of this shadow ghost before him were clearly different from the previous ones. The same ghost, but different abilities? Li Shu rubbed his chin with one hand. It wasn't impossible. You see, we're all human, but our abilities vary. Even a ghost can naturally possess different abilities. Li Shu pondered this, looking up at Quan Chen. Comparing today's Quan Chen with past ones, he quickly figured out a clue. This shadow ghost could influence people's minds. If a figure like Quan Chen could be affected, then a ghost that couldn't even be killed by the Divine Machine Thorn must be quite powerful. Li Shu was tempted, pondering how to separate this shadow ghost from Quan Chen's shadow. Then, he saw Xiao Hei slap the Quan Chen's shadow with a claw. "Xiao Hei." Li Shu quickly activated the ghost rope to pull it away. Xiao Hei's situation was special. It would be a shame if his claws injured the shadow ghost and affected her comprehension. "Xiao Hei, eat this." Pulling a ghost from the ghost building and tossing it to Xiao Hei to comfort him, Li Shu never took her eyes off the powerful official's shadow. After a moment's thought, the shadow lying quietly on the ground beneath Li Shu's feet suddenly came to life, twisting and stretching its body, spreading towards the powerful official's shadow. Li Shu's idea was simple: since she had no immediate solution to the shadow ghost, she might try fighting fire with fire. They were both shadow ghosts, and if they were of the same kind, perhaps there would be a miraculous effect.
