Chapter 143 - Flying Star Sword (1/2)
“Now, I have realized my wish. You can keep my sword.” After saying that, Qin Yan throws the long sword over and Gao Ge hurries to catch it. When he is holding the sword handle, he feels that the murderous intent of the sword is surging madly. He doesn’t feel relieved until he suppresses the murderous intent of the sword in a hurry.
“I have used this sword for tens of years to kill thousands of people. It is not a treasure, but it still can be used to deal with some evil things.” After saying that, Qin Yan turns into pieces and then completely vanishes.
Gao Ge turns around to look at the tube-shaped apartment building. Along with the vanishment of Qin Yan, all the soldiers’ ghosts lingering in the building seem to wake up.
“General, please wait! We must follow you!”
The soldiers’ ghosts also start to vanish.
“They can still have an afterlife. Just because their obsession is gone, they disappear too.” Master Wen sighs and says, “They are real heroes, though they almost kill me…”
Gao Ge laughs and points at the compass, “Where is your master?”
“I don’t know. Maybe he has reincarnated. Or he may still stay in the compass. It is not important. He does whatever he likes. As his apprentice, I cannot do anything about that.” Master Wen says.
“Is the old man who showed up just now your master’s ghost?”
“I don’t know.”
Gao Ge doesn’t bother asking him more.
It is not that Master Wen is not experienced.
However, Master Wen cannot be regarded as well-informed and well-grounded, for he just shakes his head in answer to all questions.
He is quite a weirdo.
At the moment, Xiao Linran also walks towards them.
“I wanted to kill the Third Honorable Elder of the Ghost Sect but that man stopped me. I thought he just wanted to save his life but it turned out that he only felt like helping Qin Yan end his obsession. Now I feel that I was gauging the heart of a gentleman with the own mean measure.” Xiao Linran says while shaking his head.
Gao Ge can’t help asking, “Mr. Xiao, what is that golden light?”
“It’s a wisp of remaining spirit. Now it should be completely gone. From now on, the compass is only a magic instrument.” Xiao Linran says.
Gao Ge didn’t expect that Xiao Linran is so blunt that he turns around to look at Master Wen. Master Wen puts on an unperturbed face and says smilingly, “As I said before, I cannot restrict my master on his whereabouts. I just feel it is a pity…”
“Why is it a pity?”
“It’s a pity that I didn’t ask my master to write more talismans for me!” Master Wen says with a long face, “I don’t have a large stock now.”
Gao Ge grins.
If the ghost of Master Wen’s master were really in the compass, he might have come out to kill Master Wen. It is kind of cleaning up his house.
Upon thinking of the old man, whose apprentice only learnt some basic skills from him and now lives on selling talismans online with a camgirl, Gao Ge feels so sorry for him.
Not for a while, Xia Lu opens her eyes slowly.
She still looks rather pale with sweat on her forehead.
“Are you okay?” Gao Ge is completely relieved.
Xia Lu nods her head and sits up slowly. When she sees Xiao Linran, she greets him, “Hi, Mr. Xiao.”
“Emm. You have done a good job this time.” Xiao Linran nods his head.
Gao Ge and the rest of the people are rather guilty.
Is this called “having done a good job”?
If it were not for Xiao Linran, they must have died here.
Xiao Linran seems to know what they are thinking about so he says smilingly, “Actually, a task about the Elder of Ghost Sect is rather difficult even for me, let alone you. It is good enough that you have stalled the enemy long enough for me to ruin their scheme. Moreover, the Ghost Sect is totally exposed. You don’t need to worry about the rest things.”
“Mr. Xiao, do you know the figure that showed up in the golden light?” Gao Ge asks in a low voice.
“I have met him before but I don’t know him. I met him many years ago when I was still quite young.” Xiao Linran signs, “Unexpectedly, I can get to meet him again. He is the only one of the Ghost Sect who I admire very much. It’s a long story. I will tell you later when I have time. By the way, your sword is not bad.”
Gao Ge coughs and shows his sword. He looks so proud. It is worthwhile for him to carry out tasks since he can gain such a sword!
