Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Bloodline Inheritance

Dou Dou continued: "But I was flying in the sky, he couldn’t catch me..."

There was a hint of pride in her tone.

"So, what are you afraid of?"

"I’m afraid he will use a Chicken Feather Duster to spank my butt," Dou Dou said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Alright, so what happened after that? Did you just run away?"

Shen Siyuan felt that talking to this little one was genuinely exhausting.

Although she puckered her lips and became animated when she spoke, her little antics were indeed adorable.

"No, I remembered what Potato said, I’m very powerful now, and I’m also a Fire-breathing Dragon, so I flew down from the sky and breathed fire at him. He was so scared that he wailed and then squeezed into a space behind the wall and disappeared..."

"Wait, the old man you’re talking about, is he also a ghost like you?" Shen Siyuan finally caught on.

"Of course, what else would he be?" Dou Dou once again stated matter-of-factly.

"You said he was holding a Chicken Feather Duster?" Shen Siyuan asked with furrowed brows.

People come into the world bare and leave it just as bare; they can’t take anything with them, even their clothes are merely an apparition of their consciousness.

After death, having possessions accompany you, well, let’s say accompany-in-death objects, is basically impossible, especially in this world devoid of Spiritual Energy, where such Spiritual Objects are basically non-existent.

"Right."

"What color was the Chicken Feather Duster he was holding, and what did it look like specifically?"

Dou Dou thought for a bit and said: "The Chicken Feather Duster he was holding was white and fluffy, it looked kind of pretty, hehe, I wonder if the old man would let me play with it..."

Hearing this, Shen Siyuan was somewhat surprised.

Based on Dou Dou’s description, this sounded like White Impermanence’s mourning stick—could it be that Dou Dou encountered a Ghost Messenger.

But that doesn’t make sense, according to what Qingyun Taoist said, the Ghost Gate is closed, the Underworld is hidden, and Reincarnation has ceased, how could Ghost Messengers still exist?

"Where did you encounter him?" Shen Siyuan asked.

Dou Dou pondered for a moment, thought about it, and pointed in a direction.

"Over there." She pointed to the east.

Then, she thought again and pointed to the north, "It should be over there."

Shen Siyuan: ...

"I was scared to death, scared to death..."

Grandpa Liu hurried back home, trembling with fear, nearly set ablaze by the young girl’s fire.

Lady Huang was worshipping the gods, a daily essential practice she performed morning and evening.

Mei naturally followed behind her, mimicking the same worshipping motions.

As the heir to Lady Huang, she still had much to learn.

Even though a lot of it seemed useless, since it’s passed down, one must learn to revere it—its usefulness could be determined after learning it.

And while they were only halfway through with their worship, they saw Grandpa Liu muttering on and on, clearly still in shock; he hurried through the main room toward the back, seemingly unaware of the other two’s presence, looking quite frightened.

Mei was curious and wanted to see what was going on, looking up at Lady Huang kneeling in front of her.

But then she saw Lady Huang continuing her worship as if she hadn’t noticed anything and kept on with her prayers.

Seeing this, Mei could only temporarily contain her curiosity and continue with her worship.

But soon, as they finished the set of prayers, she saw Lady Huang abruptly stand up and dash towards the back room.

Mei was taken aback, really having thought that Lady Huang was calm and indifferent.

However, now was not the time for these thoughts, so she too hurriedly followed.

Upon entering the inner room, they found Grandpa Liu still looking as if he had not yet recovered from a great shock, with several other elderly ghosts beside him offering comfort and asking questions.

And the Chicken Feather Duster that Dou Dou had spoken of was now lying on a table to the side.

Each of these ghosts was an ancestor of Mei.

This was the bloodline inheritance of Mei’s lineage, which allowed communication with ancestors; through these ancestors, they could display an array of inexplicable abilities.

"What’s going on? What exactly did you see?" Lady Huang hurriedly asked as soon as she entered the room.

"It’s that special little girl you all talked about," Grandpa Liu said, still unsettled.

"She scared you like this?"

As she said this, her gaze drifted to the Chicken Feather Duster beside her.

With this object, all the ghosts in the world could be commanded, and yet it was now being frightened by a little girl.

"You don’t understand, you don’t understand, that little girl is terrifyingly powerful..."

As Grandpa Liu spoke, his soul seemed to flicker.

"Grandpa, what makes her so powerful?" Mei asked curiously.

Lady Huang and the surrounding ancestors were equally curious.

So Grandpa Liu began to recount what had happened that day.

"You asked me to go out and inquire if there had been any sightings of any special ghosts, so I went around asking, and when I got to the west side of town, only then did I hear from some ghosts that there has been a very special ghost appearing lately, shrouded in blue flames, capable of flying in the sky..."

"At first, I didn’t believe it. In all these years, when has there been such a ghost? But many ghosts were saying the same thing, although some said there was only one, others claimed there were two..."

"I was skeptical, but wanted to verify it for myself, so I went to the route where she often appeared, hoping to encounter her..."

"Unexpectedly, I was lucky and really met her. That little girl rode a Yin Wind, swooping over my head, so I immediately gave chase..."

"Riding the Yin Wind?"

The other elder ghosts in the room all exclaimed in unison.

Even though they could communicate with their descendants, they were just ordinary ghosts, and the incense offerings they had received over the years were utterly useless.

"Yes, riding the Yin Wind." Grandpa Liu nodded, affirming very surely, indicating he was not mistaken.

"Could it be that the little girl also obtained some form of inheritance or opportunity?" one of the older ghosts hesitated to speculate.

Hearing this, everyone’s eyes turned to the "Chicken Feather Duster" on the table.

"But how did she scare you into such a state?" another old ghost asked.

"Third Uncle, you have no idea how formidable that little ghost is."

Grandpa Liu continued, "I was chasing after that little girl, wanting to ask her about some matters. When she noticed my presence, she suddenly turned around and descended from the sky. Before she even got close, I felt as if I was being burned by fire, my whole body experienced a stabbing pain, and my soul felt terror as if some great horror was descending from the sky..."

"Then she opened her mouth and breathed towards me a blue flame. It came at me, which was even more frightening. I nearly got burned. It was only because I ran fast enough..."

Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged glances once again.

"Is she really so powerful?"

"Not only powerful, she’s simply the nemesis of us ghosts," Grandpa Liu said.

"If that’s the case, are you sure you’ve shaken her off, given she can ride the Yin Wind?" another old ghost inquired faintly.

"The guest who came last time, wasn’t he wanting to inquire about the character of the potential son-in-law joining our family? I’ll go and find out more about that..."

"Society has really advanced quickly; it’s been a while since I’ve gone out for a walk. I’ll take a stroll to broaden my horizons..."

"I have some old friends I haven’t seen in a long time. I’m going to pay them a visit..."

The elder ghosts began to leave one after another, and even Grandpa Liu picked up the "Chicken Feather Duster" from the table, mentioning that he was overly frightened and needed to go out to clear his mind, and then hastily ran off.

Only Mei and her grandmother were left standing inside the room, exchanging uncertain and confused glances.
