C211 Real Random Tasks (1/2)
Wang Zheng threw the young man onto the ground, and said coldly: ”Why aren't you coming out, and are you preparing to be invited?”
As soon as Wang Zheng finished speaking, he saw a young soul slowly floating out of the young man's body. However, this soul had a face full of panic, and because of his emotions, his soul had started to tremble, and was not far from dissipating completely.
”What's going on?” The soul in front of him was the only clue, of course Wang Zheng wouldn't watch him dissipate. A wisp of ghost aura unknowingly entered the ghost's body, and Wang Zheng's soul that was originally weak to the point of dissipating slowly solidified.
Lin Yu who was at the side thought that the ghost had calmed down because he did not see Wang Zheng's actions.
With the nourishment of Wang Zheng's ghost aura, the trembling ghost finally calmed down and looked at Wang Zheng in surprise. Wang Zheng's eyes flashed with a hint of majesty that belonged to Yama, and he was so frightened that the ghost almost disappeared again.
”Disperse until I ask you.” The moment Wang Zheng opened his mouth, the spirit instantly quieted down, and when he looked at Wang Zheng, his eyes were filled with reverence.
”Why are you attached to this young man?” Wang Zheng asked as he looked at the ghost.
”It's none of my business, I was originally a ghost here, and because I do not have the qualifications to enter the Netherworld, those ghost servants let me wait here. Originally, I only obediently wandered around here every day, but recently, many souls have disappeared for no reason. I just wanted to investigate what had happened, and who knows what would happen to me if someone saw me tonight? The thing in his hand had a terrifying absorbing ability, and he almost took me away, only allowing me to have a choice but to attach it to someone.”
The ghost's words made Wang Zheng and Lin Yu frown at the same time. Other than cultivators like them, the only other ghost servants who could take spirits away were cultivators like them, and not everyone amongst the cultivators had the ability to take ghosts. From what Lin Yu knew, only two sects could do so, one of them was a righteous faction while the other was an evil faction.
”Tell me what the person who caught you looked like.” Lin Yu continued to ask.
Lin Yu and Wang Zheng stood together, and from the point of view of the ghost, it seemed that it was not simple for Lin Yu to be able to stand together with such a powerful being of Netherworld, so he replied respectfully: ”He is just a shadow. I also did not see his appearance clearly, but I accidentally discovered a hidden snake-shaped mark on his shadow.”
”Snake shaped mark?” This time, Lin Yu was completely dumbstruck. No matter if it was the normal sects or the evil sects, none of them used the snake shaped mark as a symbol, which also meant that there were other people capturing ghosts.
”Such a big matter, did the Messenger here not do anything?” Lin Yu frowned and continued to ask, theoretically speaking, the disappearance of the wandering soul here should have alerted the Messengers to investigate.
The ghost shook his head, the fear in his eyes increased, ”Not only the ghost, even the Messenger also disappeared.”
”The Messenger has disappeared!” Wang Zheng's eyes widened. The Messenger was a public servant of the Netherworld, if he went missing, it would definitely cause a stir in the Yin Division, and there would definitely be people from the Yin Division who would investigate this matter thoroughly. Wang Zheng faintly felt that something big was going to happen in the capital city soon.
”Don't leave for the next few days, it's a bit strange to be with us. We need to intervene and investigate.” Wang Zheng frowned, and finally decided to let the ghost in front of him follow him. After all, the only clue he had about this matter was the ghost in front of him.
