Chapter 639: 621
“I can’t give it to you either; it seems quite formidable. I’ve decided to make it and Xiaoqing brothers.” Ye Tian was fully embracing the rascal spirit.
“Do you know what this bird is called?”
“What is it called?”
“It’s called a ghostly bird.”
“Ghostly bird? What does that an?” Ye Tian felt that this na did not sound auspicious at all.
“This ghostly bird is a bird from Hell, quite rare in the Human World. I only have nine.”
“Nine is not a lot? You said they are rare, do you really think this is like buying pigeons at a market?” Ye Tian scorned the old man, truly a case of human greed knows no bounds.
“Of course, it’s not many, I have many things to handle.”
“What exactly do you do?” Ye Tian noticed the sky was gradually brightening; it seed the rain was about to end.
Such a heavy thunderstorm, and here I am on the mountain, feels like I’m asking to be struck by lightning.
“I, well, catch ghosts.”
“Ah? Heavenly Master Zhongkui?”
“We are not from the sa departnt, because he himself is a ghost, while I am human.”
“Alright then.” Ye Tian shut his mouth.
Originally, as an atheist, after experiencing various situations, I found myself turning into a superstitious person, believing in all kinds of demons and spirits; I had no choice but to bow down to reality.
“Although it’s not a ti of war, in places like this, there still roam so ghosts who are unwilling to leave this world. My job is to take them away. If they resist, I either scatter their souls or feed them to the ghostly bird.”
“You an, this thing eats ghosts?” Ye Tian quickly knocked the ghostly bird off his shoulder.
Without a habitat and human protection, the ghostly bird on the ground shivered.
“Yeah. Ye Tian, I see you’ve been under a dark cloud lately, have you encountered so issues? No worries, considering you gave the ghostly bird, I can help you out.”
“? I’ve indeed been very unlucky recently.” Ye Tian said dejectedly.
I don’t know what movent technique the old man used, but he grabbed Ye Tian’s wrist in an instant. Ye Tian felt his pulse being tightly pressed, unable to move at all, let alone release any Gang Qi.
The mirage also imdiately disappeared, and the half of the old man’s body near him was not wet, but the other half was not so lucky.
Xiaoqing was innocently standing on his shoulder, making Ye Tian almost go crazy.
“Old man, I’ve done nothing harmful to you, what are you doing?” Ye Tian tried hard to calm himself down, since force was not an option and Xiaoqing was unreliable, he had to rely on his own eloquence to save himself.
Thinking about those historical advisers who were adept at debating, it seed this was not an easy task.
Xu Kong did not respond to Ye Tian’s words, just rhythmically pressed on Ye Tian’s wrist, like a traditional Chinese dicine doctor taking a pulse.
“Elder Xu Kong, isn’t this bullying the junior? It’s not right; I haven’t done anything. Even if you seal this ghost here, it was an accident that I triggered it.”
“You’re saying you caused this cut?” Xu Kong was surprised.
“Yes, yes.”
“But right now, you have no inner breath at all. Wait, is there sothing strange in your body?”
“No!” Ye Tian was adamant.
In case he encountered a psycho, who knew if they’d cut him open to take his pearls.
Xu Kong exerted a bit more force, and Ye Tian felt as if he was engulfed in a sea of fire, his body about to be roasted, the pain making him involuntarily sweat.
“This is Hellfire, it can refine anything. Do you want to transform into a wisp of blue smoke?”
Ye Tian clenched his teeth, feeling the sweat beads on his forehead dripping into his eyes, his mind rapidly analyzing the old man’s purpose.
But in the end, he couldn’t bear the anguish anymore, Ye Tian swore he would never eat grilled at again!
“There are!”
The force in Xu Kong’s hands lessened slightly.
“Speak honestly.”
“There are two beads.”
“Wouldn’t it have been better if you said that earlier?” Xu Kong let go of his grip.
Ye Tian, however, plopped down on the ground, not minding the mud and water anymore.
At this ti, the rain stopped.
“What exactly do you want, old man?” Although Ye Tian knew he was no match for the old man, he was still desperately planning his escape.
“Don’t think about escaping. Even if you turned into a ghost, do you think you could escape the palm of my hand?”
“Alright, then what exactly do you want to do first?”
“Nothing.”
Xu Kong stopped paying attention to Ye Tian and instead, facing a crack, drew Tai Chi with both hands. Ye Tian watched as two streams of Gang Qi moved according to the old man’s movents, just like the two beads in his own body roaming about.
Perhaps this old man could actually help him, Ye Tian comforted himself.
Since he couldn’t escape from this, he might as well bravely face it.
Suddenly, Xu Kong split the yin and yang into two halves with a palm, then forcefully rged them back together. Ye Tian was surprised to find that as the old man did this, the crack on the hill moved slowly forward and eventually disappeared, turning into a complete hill.
Ye Tian stared at Xu Kong in astonishnt.
“What is it?” Xu Kong asked.
“What is this…” Ye Tian didn’t know how to describe it, only managed to be amazed looking at the old man before him.
“Tai Chi creates two extres, two extres create the Four Symbols. You can understand this simplest concept, right? Our ancestors were wise; everything can be utilized to exert force.”
Ye Tian didn’t know how to respond. He knew Tai Chi was about leveraging force as he had learned it during training, though sotis it wasn’t as lethal as other techniques.
Even though Zhang Sanfeng’s image was deeply entrenched in his heart, in close combat, lethal moves were still favorable, so his understanding of Tai Chi was indeed superficial.
In the end, he even thought Tai Chi was best left for old n and won to slowly exercise in the park. But today, Ye Tian finally opened his eyes.
He hadn’t expected such slow movents to possess such great deterrence, even capable of moving mountains. Had Yu Gong known this, why bother digging at all? If he had started practicing Tai Chi from birth, perhaps those two mountains would have been pushed away by his palms long ago.
“Master Xu Kong, you are too powerful! Can you help ?” Ye Tian imdiately started to fawn over him.
“Yes! But I must try first, I’m not sure if it will be successful or not.”
Before Ye Tian could express his reluctance to be a guinea pig, Xu Kong had already taken him away. Ye Tian looked towards the distant youth hostel with a sigh on his face, truly unsure if he could ever return!
Ling Rong and Gu Zhun were together today, but her mind couldn’t stop thinking about that piece of paper, so she was distracted all day. Gu Zhun asked her, but she didn’t speak, only ntioned being tired from physical exhaustion yesterday.
Why would a clearly Alien Clan woman have her portrait? Could it really be related to her own origins? And thinking about how Gu Zhun very much wanted to return to Huaxia but did not co back, could it really be related to her?
Such question marks grew bigger in Ling Rong’s heart, and she even began to worry. If her situation really had sothing to do with Gu Zhun, what should she do?
“Miss Ling Rong.” Just as Ling Rong was overwheld with various worries, a man’s figure approached her.
“Who are you?” Ling Rong sensed no dangerous aura from the man, but his gaze was deep, so deep that she couldn’t even see herself in his pupils.
