Whether it was Yang Haoran or Xu ijing, both had the conditions to add a clock, after all, they had a soul-refining cauldron in hand, making them wealthy in the shadows compared to ordinary Underworld Envoys.
However, being too high-profile didn't benefit them, and with the current situation being different, they indeed didn't have much ti to waste in the underworld.
So, Yang Haoran didn't insist and followed Xu ijing downstairs to the second floor, leaving the high-end Ghost Technique pavilion.
After exiting the pavilion, Yang Haoran imdiately took out paper and pen from his independent space and began writing and drawing quickly on the paper.
Xu ijing glanced over and understood what Yang Haoran was doing. She hesitated for a mont, then took out paper and pen from her independent space as well, writing and drawing like Yang Haoran.
At this ti, their actions weren't ant to write out all the rembered Ghost Techniques, but to note down key points and parts that were hard to rember, so they wouldn't forget later.
After a short while, Yang Haoran stopped writing, put away his pen and paper, and looked at Xu ijing.
Xu ijing was frowning, fully focused on drawing sothing on the paper. Yang Haoran didn't disturb her and waited quietly for her to finish.
After another short while, Xu ijing stopped writing, put away her pen and paper, and said to Yang Haoran, "Let's go, we'll talk later."
Yang Haoran nodded without asking questions and followed Xu ijing, quickly leaving the underworld and returning to the Ancheng Death God Temple via Yellow Springs Road.
In total, they had only been away from Ancheng for a little over two hours, not even three hours. Ancheng was still calm, with no major incidents related to the Ancheng Yin Division.
In a quiet room within the Death God Temple, Xu ijing set up a restriction barrier. Then, they took out paper and pen again, along with so key points they had recorded in the underworld. They would occasionally refer to them, recall, and write.
Half an hour later, Yang Haoran was the first to stop writing, leaning back in his chair, letting out a deep sigh, and a smile appeared on his face.
He glanced at Xu ijing, who was still racking her brains to rember sothing. He didn't disturb her and instead lit a cigarette, taking a deep drag to relax his nerves.
After finishing the cigarette, seeing Xu ijing still hadn't stopped writing, Yang Haoran extinguished the butt in the ashtray and began organizing the scattered papers in front of him.
These papers had writing and hand-drawn symbols, although the writing wasn't neat, and the symbols weren't professional. There were even traces of corrections, but Yang Haoran was very satisfied because these papers recorded two complete Ghost Techniques and one incomplete Ghost Technique.
Earlier, in the underworld's Ghost Technique pavilion, he had spent an hour morizing two Ghost Techniques. Another Ghost Technique, due to ti constraints, wasn't firmly etched in his mind, and now he could only write out part of it, with many corrections.
He knew this Ghost Technique was currently useless, but he wrote it down for future reference. He would definitely visit the Ghost Technique pavilion again, and with so ti, he could fill in the gaps of the incomplete technique.
When Yang Haoran had organized all the papers, Xu ijing finally stopped writing. He looked at Xu ijing, who had a helpless expression.
From Xu ijing's reaction, Yang Haoran knew she wasn't doing well, so he opened his mouth to comfort her.
"Heh, no need to be so worried. Just write down as much as you can rember. Even if you can't recall a single Ghost Technique, it's no big deal. We can always go back to the underworld and visit the Ghost Technique pavilion again."
Xu ijing looked at Yang Haoran, then forced a smile on her face.
"You're really carefree."
Yang Haoran heard the helplessness and frustration in Xu ijing's tone, so he continued to comfort her with a smile.
"It's not a big deal, you don't need to be so bothered. It's not worth being so worried over such a small thing."
Upon hearing this, Xu ijing began to tidy up the scattered papers in front of her while responding.
"I just feel a bit regretful. If we had more ti, our gains would have been greater. Don't worry, I'm not as fragile as you think."
As soon as Xu ijing finished speaking, she began to organize the papers on the table in front of her.
"I only rembered one Ghost Technique, and I had just started preparing to morize another one when ti was up. If I had been given another 10 minutes, I'm sure I could have morized the second Ghost Technique without a problem. Unfortunately, choosing the right Ghost Technique took up more than half of my ti."
As she spoke, Xu ijing handed the organized Ghost Techniques to Yang Haoran.
"Hehe, your mory is better than mine. I didn't choose carefully and just picked a book to start morizing the Ghost Techniques inside. In the end, I only rembered two Ghost Techniques."
Yang Haoran took the Ghost Techniques from Xu ijing while laughing and responded, also handing over his own two organized Ghost Techniques to Xu ijing.
Xu ijing's expression was slightly surprised, and after taking the Ghost Techniques from Yang Haoran, she couldn't help but express her doubts.
"How could you not choose carefully? This way, you can find a Ghost Technique that's more suitable for you. Just picking one randomly and starting to morize it might be a bit too casual."
Yang Haoran chuckled and explained, "If I had enough ti, I would definitely choose carefully. But without enough ti, I had to adopt a different approach. Besides, they're all interdiate-level Ghost Techniques, so the difference shouldn't be too great. As for whether they suit or not, I'll get used to them, and if they don't, I can always go to the Ghost Technique Pavilion to exchange for another one later."
As Yang Haoran spoke, he paused for a mont, looking at Xu ijing's slightly furrowed brow, and continued to smile.
"Hehe, the Ghost Techniques that don't suit don't necessarily an they won't suit you. On the contrary, the ones that suit don't necessarily an you'll like them. Who knows, these two Ghost Techniques might just be what you're looking for?"
Xu ijing's brow relaxed, and a hint of a smile appeared on her face.
"You're right, hehe, let's just cultivate them first and see. If they don't work out, we can always go to the Ghost Technique Pavilion again, just like you said."
As Xu ijing spoke, she suddenly rembered sothing and didn't imdiately start flipping through the Ghost Techniques Yang Haoran had given her. Instead, she asked Yang Haoran about sothing else.
"Why did you hand over so many ghosts in the underworld? Wouldn't it be better to keep them for yourself to refine into soul pills?"
Xu ijing had wanted to ask this question for a long ti, but she couldn't ask it in the underworld, so she waited until now to express her doubts.
"Ordinary undead are too sinful to use for refining soul pills. If I had the ti, I would screen them out and send away the innocent ones, keeping only the ones with great evil. This ti, I was in a hurry, and many souls didn't get screened."
As soon as Yang Haoran finished speaking, Xu ijing couldn't help but shake her head.
"There are always sacrifices behind success, and many of them are innocent. Don't you understand this principle?"
Yang Haoran smiled and nodded under Xu ijing's gaze.
"I understand, but I couldn't bring myself to do it."
Xu ijing's brow furrowed, seemingly dissatisfied with Yang Haoran's response.
"The innocent people you're talking about might be the ones who will harm you in the future."
Yang Haoran knew Xu ijing was reminding him to be careful, and a warm feeling arose in his heart, making his smile even more sincere.
"Don't worry, you know I'm not a reckless person. I dare to do this, so I must have my reasons."
Seeing Yang Haoran insist on his approach, Xu ijing shook her head again, sowhat helplessly.
"Undead are one thing, but what about those powerful ghosts? Why didn't you keep them for yourself?"
When Yang Haoran heard this, he couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.
"I also wanted to keep those powerful ghosts, but I didn't dare to. Most of them were obtained during my previous trip to Yunchuan City, and Luo Divine Envoy knows about it. To minimize the risk, I decided to hand them over to the underworld."
