"This Diancang Spirit Attachment Technique, as well as Automaton Puppetry..."

Lin Yan slightly closed his eyes, carefully contemplating, thinking to himself, "Once I fully understand these two magic methods and combine them with the Paper-cut Horses, I should be able to create a new technique!"

He then allocated all the Evil Qi he had gained from slaying the evil spirit tonight.

Diancang Spirit Attachment Technique (67/100)+

Automaton Puppetry (52/100)+

"That’s about right."

Lin Yan took out a piece of white paper from his bosom and, with a flick of his hand, transformed it into a figure almost identical to his own appearance, lifelike in every way.

He then took out the fine threads he had prepared earlier, tossed them, and threaded them through the paper figure, connecting its various parts to form "tendons."

Next, he looked at the White Winged Ape and, biting his finger, used the Diancang Spirit Attachment Technique to infuse it with the knowledge about "Automaton Puppetry."

He then pressed a finger onto the Little White Ape’s head, allowing the knowledge to seep in.

After a short while, the Little White Ape blinked its eyes.

"Can you learn it?" Lin Yan asked.

"I’ve learned it."

The Little White Ape burrowed into the chest of the paper figure.

Then there was a thud as it fell to the ground.

The paper figure suddenly contorted.

Then, the figure struggled, using its head to push against the ground, trying to stand up.

Eventually, supporting its head on the ground, hands on the floor, it wobbled to its feet.

"No problem, just a minor issue," the White Ape casually said.

"You’ve got it backward," Lin Yan sighed.

"Ah?"

The Little White Ape pulled on the tendons, twisting its waist around.

With its rear end facing Lin Yan, it asked, "Is it okay now?"

"..."

Lin Yan stayed silent for a moment before saying, "Try to smile for me."

Several creases suddenly appeared on the rear end, resembling a smiling face.

Lin Yan let out a long sigh, gazed skyward, his mind filled with mixed emotions.

"Why don’t you maintain that posture and crawl out to have a look?"

"..." The Little White Ape crawled out, took a look, then shrank back in, and said in a muffled voice, "I’m not quite proficient yet, I’ll be able to smile better next time."

"Even if you manage to smile a flower with your rear end, what use would that be?" Lin Yan rubbed his forehead, asking, "Didn’t you say that you had learned it?"

"I have learned it in my mind," the Little White Ape murmured, "It’s just that some operation procedures are too complex, and my hands and feet aren’t well-coordinated. After all, I just died. We’re all friends here, show a little understanding, huh?"

"I have imparted to you the craftsmanship of Paper-cut Horses and the techniques of the Disguise Technique through the Diancang Spirit Attachment Technique," Lin Yan said, exhaling.

"For the next two days, you make paper figures on your own, put some thought into it, practice, and strive to appear in front of others as soon as possible," Lin Yan continued.

"No big deal," the Little White Ape poked its head out and gestured, "In these two days, I’ll definitely be able to turn over a new leaf and be a better person."

Lin Yan rode his horse back to the southern district of the outer city.

This was the boundary of Qingshan District.

The evil spirit had traveled through here.

After Liang Hu’s death, the position of Flag Commander was vacant, temporarily held by the Main Secretary of Qingshan.

This position was somewhat secluded.

Lin Yan tied his horse to a tree, then went behind a hillock, took out Mr. Lu’s Spirit Talisman, and smoothly affixed it to the side.

He also took out the egg harboring a nascent divine being.

He felt that it was sufficiently ripe.

Thereupon he cut his palm open and, using the Diancang Spirit Attachment Technique, poured some of the "knowledge he had acquired" into the egg.

Moments later, the egg began to tremble.

Lin Yan put down the knife and placed his right palm on it.

He saw eighteen tendrils, in varying shades, extending out and burrowing into his palm.

In the center of his palm, the "Nirvana Divine Egg" once again displayed eighteen lines.

Where the wooden egg had been, a small sapling about a foot tall shook slightly.

Was this the reborn nascent divine being, nurtured by the Nirvana Divine Egg?

Before Lin Yan had a chance to take a closer look, the sapling turned into a streak of light, entering the Nirvana Divine Egg through the lines in his palm.

"Hmm?"

Lin Yan opened his hand to look.

Behind the lines of the Nirvana Divine Egg, he saw the ghostly image of a willow tree.

More importantly, Lin Yan faintly felt a warm current coming from within his hand.

This sensation was not unfamiliar to him.

When he had slain the corporeal body of Jiǎ Zi Tai Sùi previously, he had sensed an anomaly with the Nirvana Divine Egg in his right hand. Hence, he took a gamble and struck that blow.

Now, the power of the small sapling, compared to that when slaying Jiǎ Zi Tai Sùi, was worlds apart.

If the power of the small sapling could be likened to a basin of water,

Then, the force left by the original host was like a great river.

"So, I can actually borrow the power within it?"

Lin Yan thought to himself, "The stronger the sapling, the stronger the cut I make with its power will be!"

His eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of something and looked to the side.

The Little White Ape shrank its head and looked around hesitantly.

"You can hide in my hand too, right?"

"Ah?" The Little White Ape exclaimed in surprise, "Is that even possible?"

"If you can hide in my hand, why would you need to loiter outside?"

Lin Yan slapped it over and said angrily, "Just now, they used you as an excuse, ready to give me trouble under the charge of cultivating a demon!"

Holding its head with both hands, the Little White Ape quickly said, "Mr. Lu has said that I’m not truly unsightly, right?"

"Why don’t you come in and try?"

Lin Yan reached out his hand and said.

"Trying it out isn’t a problem, but you have to let me out," said the Little White Ape in a muffled voice. "Who would want to stay in such a small place? It is a tree, so of course, it likes peace and shrinking down is fine."

When it blinked its eyes, it said pitifully, "But I’m different, you know, being cooped up in a box is even worse than being cooped up in the palm of a hand!"

"Get in here first!"

Lin Yan slapped down and pressed on its forehead.

He then felt eighteen tendrils extend from his palm, wrapping around the Little White Ape and pulling it into his grasp.

Upon closer inspection, there was now a Double-winged White Ape in the center of his palm.

In a vague sense, Lin Yan felt that the power contained in his right hand was growing more substantial.

He gripped the blade in his hand and thought, "The cut that once slaughtered Jiazi Taisui’s physical body, I will be able to reproduce it very soon."

With that thought, he sheathed his blade.

He then released the Little White Ape.

The White Ape tumbled to the ground and then raised its head.

It saw Lin Yan’s extremely "kind and friendly" smile.

"I will cultivate you well from now on, you must strive to grow. I have high hopes for you, keep it up!"

Lin Yan gently stroked its head.

The Double-winged White Ape trembled all over and its eyes revealed a look of terror.

Not far away was the Qing Shan Fang’s livestock rearing grounds.

There were pigs happily oinking away.

They were to be sent to the slaughterhouse tomorrow.

"What, you want me to eat more so you can fatten me up and then kill me later?"

The Double-winged White Ape’s voice trembled, "Master, strictly speaking, I’ve gained a lot of your knowledge and many of your ’ideas.’ I’m like another you in this world. A knowing friend is just like that!"

Lifting its head, it said pitifully, "Coming to this world as a stranger, do you not feel lonely? Alone in a foreign land, every festive season doubles your longing for family. We are like family to each other!"

"I already have a family in this world!"

Lin Yan looked deeply at it and thought, "It seems that when I was at Jinliu Manor and didn’t learn the Diancang Spirit Attachment Technique to let it hatch, I passed on to it even the greatest obsession of my innermost heart."

Sighing, Lin Yan then slowly said, "You truly have become the creature that understands me best in this world."

"Of course, you want to marry..."

"Hmm?"

"Don’t worry, Master. From today on, I will study hard and strive to rise every day, never to let down your cultivation."

"That’s more like it."

Lin Yan picked up the Little White Ape and placed it on his shoulder, saying, "Practice more skills, stimulate the power in your bloodline, and become a great demon as soon as possible!"

The Little White Ape nodded repeatedly, saying, "With my talents, I’m bound to become a Demon King... no, a Demon God!"

Lin Yan said, "Later won’t do, you must achieve it early."

The Little White Ape nodded again and again, not daring to argue.

That night, Wu Chang, the General Flag Envoy, went to the Outer Southwest Bureau to slay the Evil Spirit.

In the process, he suppressed the Outer Southwest Bureau and the Left General of Qifeng Prefecture City.

For the Observatory, which was skilled at probing information from various parties, this was no secret.

Meanwhile, over at the Outer South Bureau, due to Wu Chang’s departure, Xu Qing and others took over, performing their duties by the book without any oversights.

Late into the night, Lin Yan returned to take command, ensuring a peaceful night.

Until the early morning, Lin Yan summoned Xu Qing and ordered him to arrange manpower to manage the daytime matters.

He then mounted his horse and went straight to the inner city.

The Outer South Bureau was located in the first district of High Willow Outer City, very close to the Inner City.

Thus, it took Lin Yan not even half an hour to reach the inner city.

"A city within a city!"

Lin Yan exclaimed sentimentally, "The inner city of the past was the complete High Willow City, a true fortress..."

The later-built outer city seemed more like an "outer shell" extended to protect the inner city.

The "new city" that is now planned for construction is an "outer shell" of the outer city!

Once the new city is built, even the most external district of High Willow Outer City, Linjiang Square, will see a reduction in the threat of Evil beings, or it might even eliminate the risk of Evil beings besieging the city altogether!

Because the risks of darkness eroding will all be blocked outside by the "new city"!

"Halt, who goes there?"

A Deputy Commander came forward to check at the southern wall of the inner city.

As a Deputy Commander of the inner city, his position was half a rank higher than the Deputy Commander Gu of the outer city.

"I am Wu Chang, the newly appointed General Flag Envoy of the Outer South Bureau," said Lin Yan as he showed the flag. "Ordered to enter the city, heading to the Observatory Headquarters."

The Deputy Commander showed a trace of surprise, then stepped back and solemnly said, "Master Wu! Please!"

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree.

The notorious name of the deathly Wu Chang seemed to have already reached the inner city.

Entering the inner city felt like coming to another world.

Bustling, flourishing, stable, and even the joyful sounds of children echoed in every corner of the streets.

There was only the absence of the oppression and gloom of the outer city!

This hardly seemed like a world afflicted by the advent of a ghostly night.

In a trance, it was as if entering an entirely new golden age!
