Chapter 1048: Chapter 1048: I’m Here for Tourism

"Once you mentioned that," he immediately jumped up, hurried to Zai Juejue, and muttered quietly, "Bro, if that thing really shows up later, you have to cover for me, I’ll give you the Snake Empress’s hand board."

"Deal." Zai Juejue shamelessly replied.

Walking along, another checkpoint appeared, and at this moment, Su Lang spoke, "There’s corpse energy ahead."

"Corpse energy?" Xu Hai turned to look at you.

You nodded slightly but did not speak. You sensed a very intense corpse energy ahead, which made you feel heavy-hearted, hence you quickened your pace.

After passing the checkpoint and walking about thirty meters, you noticed a big hole in the wall next to the railway tunnel.

The hole was large, with many pieces of broken rock and sand still on the tracks. The site was uncleaned, with only a few criminal police officers standing outside discussing something.

Jiang Han quickly approached and asked one of them, "How is it inside?"

The person shook his head, "No one has come out yet."

"Officer Jiang, stay here. I’ll go in and have a look."

Though your expression was cold, you were actually very worried inside. Xian Qianling had strong fighting abilities but was powerless against ghosts.

The reason you were still calm was that when you left Fuxi Village, your mother had given each girl, including Xian Qianling, a jade bracelet.

You couldn’t tell the material of the bracelet, but once worn, it enveloped the person in an aura that could block a significant amount of malevolent energy. It seemed to have other functions, too, but you were not clear on what they were.

Out of curiosity, you even asked your mother about the origin of these jade bracelets, to which she indifferently replied, "Where did the jade bracelets come from? Go ask your grandma; I just took them from the Treasure Pavilion."

Later, you meticulously studied the jade bracelet on Zhao’er’s wrist and discovered that it was no ordinary item!

Not to mention the material that even Sen Luo Eye couldn’t identify, just the soul energy emanating from it was enough to touch your heart.

Also, there has always been a tradition in China, "Humans nourish jade, and jade nourishes humans". With this type of jade, when worn, it resonates with a person’s soul, fostering a harmonious relationship, providing excellent protection.

Speaking of jade bracelets, it’s worth mentioning that those who truly understand jade never buy self-promoted jade items.

So-called jade only started getting noticed post the 18th century due to certain profiteers but wasn’t popular back then as nobody cared about it.

By the end of the Qing Dynasty, because Empress Dowager Cixi was extremely fond of jade, officials around the country started using jade to curry favor with the powerful, making the material known throughout China.

Of course, for the common folk back then, this was not considered a good thing.

Regarding the recent market trends and the incessant online hype, they are merely ploys by some to get rich by creating a buzz.

Just look at Myanmar, where excavators are used to shovel vast amounts of soil and rock into trucks for the processing plants like scooping poop.

Jade is a type of jade, but jade is definitely not all jade!

Jadeite is hard jade which can’t store anything inside, nor can it communicate with a person’s soul, thus, before the Qing Dynasty, it was rarely used for burial purposes. But of course, for those who like to flaunt, having a couple more pieces of vivid green items is harmless. If one indeed wishes to wear such, it’s suggested not to choose such commonly-found hard jade like jadeite.

But I digress.

"Wait!"

Just as you were about to lead the team into the tunnel, a man’s voice called out from behind.

Soon, a handsome man in a suit, leading seven others, strode toward you.

Chrome looked surprised and said, "What is he doing here?"

"Who is he?" Xu Hai asked for you.

"His name is Pu Qixian, he’s the second in command of the Eastern Sea Chu Sect, and also the direct disciple of the Sect Leader of the Shocking Sect. His power is not to be underestimated."

"Pu? So he’s from the Pu Family?"

As -Chrome nodded, Pu Qixian had already walked up to you with his group.

"-Chrome, from now on, we’ll handle things here, you may leave."

Pu Qixian looked at -Chrome arrogantly and he didn’t even bother to glance at you.

As -Chrome didn’t get a chance to speak, you turned and walked towards the cave entrance.

"Stop!"

A man shouted lowly, and with a flicker of his figure, he had already rushed to your side, reaching for your shoulder!

Even with your back to the man, it seemed as if you had eyes there, and you lightly stepped to the left, avoiding his grasp.

"Bastard, didn’t you hear me tell you to stop?"

The man shouted angrily, his right hand flickering with light, then he reached fiercely toward your shoulder again!

Feeling the sharp energy from behind, you didn’t dodge this time, but the Sen Luo Curse Mark in your eyes suddenly flickered!

A strange and powerful aura suddenly burst forth from you, knocking the onrushing man back, sending his body flying to crash heavily against the wall on the opposite side of the tunnel.

"Bang!"

Seeing his comrade treated like this, Pu Qixian finally raised his eyes to look at you, clearly taking an interest in your actions.

"Sir, you’re quite skilled."

Pu Qixian said coldly.

"Not bad, I still have enough strength to beat a few dogs," you replied indifferently, turning to face Pu Qixian.

Upon seeing your face clearly, Pu Qixian’s expression suddenly changed. The arrogant light in his eyes vanished, replaced with intense hatred.

"Looks like, sir, you recognize me."

"Li Muyun, even if you turned to ashes, I would still recognize you!" Hatred didn’t make Pu Qixian lose his sense, but his resentful gaze drew a shiver from a few nearby criminal police officers.

You chuckled, Pu Qixian’s power might show off in front of normal superpowered beings, but in your eyes, he wasn’t even worth a Teddy dog.

"Don’t look at me with that murderous glare, it makes me want to annihilate your entire Pu Family," you said coldly. "However, given what your Pu Family has done, there’s no need for me to take action. Sooner or later, someone will act as Heaven’s agent."

Pu Qixian snorted coldly and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I’m here on vacation, you got a problem with that?"

Su Lang eyed Pu Qixian with displeasure, retorting coldly.

Meanwhile, you said to Xu Hai, "Haizi, you stay here, Old Hong will connect with me above."

Seeing Xu Hai and -Chrome nod, you didn’t bother with Pu Qixian any longer and headed into the cave with the four students.

Before long, you heard Pu Qixian’s voice from behind, "Li Muyun, I am in charge of this incident, and you outsiders..."

"Quiet!"
