Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Ancestor Invokes the Deity
“No need, this will suffice.”
Jiangli directed Xia Xin to light the incense and candles, creating a pathway.
Xia Xin acknowledged with an ‘oh’ and neatly arranged the incense and candles before lighting them.
Jiangli picked up the ceremonial paper money he brought, and with a flip of his fingertips, the paper money began to float into the air.
The next second, a faint ghostly blue fla ignited on the bills.
Seeing this, Xia Xin’s eyes widened suddenly.
The paper money, carrying the ghostly blue flas, quickly descended to the ground.
Jiangli then took another handful of paper money and threw it into the air.
This batch of paper money did not catch fire, nor did it fall to the ground; instead, it floated towards the sky.
Xia Xin was perplexed.
Just then, a pitch-black path gradually appeared on the ground, devoid of any light.
As Xia Xin pondered, the paper money landed on the ground, and the bills ablaze with blue flas turned into small lanterns, lining an entire pathway.
How magical…
Xia Xin observed curiously without looking away.
At that mont, a figure erged onto the path.
The man was dressed like a scholar, wearing ancient robes, his face like a beautiful jade, extrely handso.
He was also holding a judge’s brush in his hand.
Seeing the object, Xia Xin’s heart skipped a beat.
Isn’t that the Judge Cui from the portraits!
Holy shit!
Did the ancestor just casually beckon Judge Cui over with a flick of his hand?
Is that even possible?!
“It appears the Abbot has returned. I was wondering why I sensed a familiar aura.” Judge Cui approached, offering Jiangli a respectful greeting, “Abbot, it has been a long ti.”
Jiangli nodded slightly, “Indeed, it has been so ti since we last t, yet here we are, and I find myself in need of Judge Cui’s assistance.”
Xia Xin was still in shock.
Summoning deities is a common affair at Xuann.
The old Taoist had summoned gods several tis, seeking their aid, but most attempts failed, and even the successful ones might only summon a Divine Sense or an ordinary Ghost Envoy.
But such a direct summoning of a god’s true form, Xia Xin had never seen before.
Legends and strange tales in novels wouldn’t dare to write it like this!
The ancestor…
Is he really that powerful?
Xia Xin looked at Jiangli with astonishnt.
“The Abbot may instruct as he wishes.” Judge Cui was exceedingly courteous and reverential toward Jiangli.
Xia Xin had never seen a Ghost Envoy show such politeness to a mber of Xuann.
No, that’s wrong, the ancestor is not just any common figure of Xuann.
Xia Xin muttered in his mind.
At this ti, Jiangli directly presented Qiang Hongtao and Shuaishuai before Judge Cui.
“I must trouble you to take these two back, send them into reincarnation. They are both pitiable souls, and I hope Judge Cui can make so concessions on their behalf, granting them so preferential treatnt.”
On hearing this, Judge Cui glanced over at Qiang Hongtao and Shuaishuai.
Feeling Judge Cui’s gaze, Shuaishuai instinctively burrowed into Qiang Hongtao’s embrace, evidently afraid.
Qiang Hongtao, hugging Shuaishuai, felt an innate fear upon seeing Judge Cui and dared not say a word.
But he believed that with Jiangli present, he wouldn’t let any misfortune befall them, plus, being an adult, he stood there without moving.
“All right.” Scanning them once, Judge Cui readily agreed, “The Abbot’s commands will be strictly observed.”
On hearing this, Jiangli smiled slightly, “I appreciate it.”
Judge Cui expressed the gravity of the duty with one word and didn’t say much else, instead addressing Qiang Hongtao and Shuaishuai, “Follow .”
Qiang Hongtao nodded hesitantly, took a look back at Jiangli and Xia Xin, “Thank you.”
After speaking, he held Shuaishuai and followed behind Judge Cui, walking down that unique path.
The figures of the few people quickly vanished before Xia Xin’s eyes.
Xia Xin had yet to recover from his surprise when they were already out of sight, and he felt a sense of loss, “They’ve just left, just like that…”
