Chapter 1067: Chapter 469 Surprises and Shocks_3

Some masters can’t stand vagrants and chase them away, while others rename them, but Qi Yuan chose to provide shelter and let them work.

This kindness can never be fully repaid in a lifetime.

Upon hearing this, Liu Xi really wanted to sneer.

These weren’t like homeless ghosts at all, these were real ghosts!

Also, what does it mean to give a Wandering Soul a job?

He couldn’t keep up with Qi Yuan’s thought process.

"This Yin Spirit Army, originally kind-hearted... but then evil people tainted them, controlling them with bells to patrol the heavens, slaughtering the living," Qi Yuan said, producing a bell.

Upon hearing this, Shi Pan’s eyes lit up, "Grandpa Niu was right, the previous Wandering Souls... were our protectors, surely it’s because bad people came and took control of them."

Qi Yuan looked at Shi Pan, lost in thought for a while.

These Yin Spirit Army, in life, were guardians on the frontier.

Latterly, they were defeated, their world shattered, scarcely one in ten thousand of their tribespeople survived, with only a few escaping to Tiankun Peculiar Land.

And as Wandering Souls, they still guarded their own tribespeople, clearing obstacles for the continuation of their tribe.

Unfortunately, the Holy Light Sect appeared, and these Wandering Souls were controlled.

At this time, Liu Xi narrowed his eyes, thinking of something, and spoke in a low voice, "In Tiankun Peculiar Land, those who have the power to control the Yin Spirit Army are definitely the Holy Light Sect without doubt, senior, you have offended the Holy Light Sect, so you must be careful!"

Liu Xi had also faintly heard some rumors about the Wandering Souls.

Behind the Holy Light Sect was the Holy Light Clan.

Particularly frightening.

"It’s okay, I’m quite familiar with the Holy Light Clan," Qi Yuan said with a grin.

He had once hunted Dongjun.

Hearing this, Liu Xi’s heart tightened, sensing that this senior was mysteriously unfathomable.

At that moment, Qi Yuan seemed to think of something and suddenly said, "Fellow Daoist, how about you help me with a task?"

Liu Xi felt honored and startled upon hearing this.

This Heavenly Venerable actually referred to him as ’fellow Daoist’; how could he not be surprised?

"I want to collect some peculiar treasures. I’m not concerned with quality, just quantity.

I was thinking of having these Wandering Souls collect them for me, but alas... people always have prejudices, and of course, I can’t blame them. I’m afraid others might get scared if they see the Wandering Souls.

You’re on your own, so you take some Wandering Souls and help me collect some.

Immortal Jade and other treasures, I have plenty of those."

As he spoke, Qi Yuan casually tossed a Storage Bag to Liu Xi.

He wasn’t short of money.

Especially after killing so many Sun Gods and even emptying out the Mo Luo Clan.

Liu Xi looked unsettled.

Working for a Heavenly Venerable naturally had many benefits, but... there were also risks.

After all, this Heavenly Venerable had slapped the face of the Holy Light Sect.

If there were a reprisal, he dared not imagine it.

After some hesitation, he struggled to say, "I apologize, senior, but I’ve always been reclusive and seldom interact with others; I’m afraid I might mess up your errand."

Liu Xi resolutely refused.

Lifesaving was more important than the opportunity.

Seeing this, Shi Pan couldn’t help but speak up, "Sir, do you think I can do it?"

He was very nervous.

For one thing, he was very young.

For another, he had no cultivation level.

Upon hearing Shi Pan’s words, Liu Xi couldn’t help but want to laugh inwardly.

The kid Shi Pan, really brave to even think such a thing, was courting death.

Qi Yuan pondered, then affirmed, "Of course... you can."

From Liu Bang’s Pei County came so many outstanding people.

So to Qi Yuan, aside from top-notch talent, the world was not in short supply of "capable people."

For an individual, opportunity was what was most missing.

As long as the abstraction isn’t too great, trying out that position for some experience couldn’t hurt too much.

Besides, he didn’t really care about others’ capabilities.

Otherwise, how could he have let Sister Niujiao join his team?

Upon hearing this, Shi Pan’s face showed an expression of ecstasy, "Tha... thank you so much, sir!"

"Take this talisman I bestow upon you; it will protect you completely," Qi Yuan said, casually tossing a talisman to Shi Pan, "I’ll give you a Yin Spirit Army to trade with as you see fit."

"Everything is up to you, don’t bother me for no reason."

Qi Yuan had the air of someone who was washing his hands of the responsibility.

His main objective was the Myriad Ghosts Soul Banner.

Everything else was secondary.

"Understood!" Shi Pan took the storage bag and talisman, elated in his heart.

"If you can’t open the storage bag, let the Wandering Soul do it for you," Qi Yuan said as he tossed a jade slip to him, "just cultivate on your own."

This Cultivation Technique was collected from the Mo Luo Clan.

To Qi Yuan, it was practically equivalent to junk.

But to cultivators in the outside world, this technique would cause even Yin Gods to fight till their heads broke.

Liu Xi, standing by, felt a bit envious of Shi Pan and then shook his head.

What use was there in having good things if one had no life to use them?

...

Holy Light Sect.

Heaven Lame Heavenly Venerate squinted his eyes, his body stooped, looking like an old servant.

In front of him, a mythical being bowed his head, cold sweat beading his forehead.

The patrol of the Wandering Souls the other day had been a complete mess, resulting in the loss of hundreds of thousands of Yin Spirit soldiers.

How could he not be afraid?

The eyes of Heaven Lame Heavenly Venerate were murky, "Being able to control the Yin Spirit Army is a matter beyond our control now."

This incident was unexpected even for Heaven Lame Heavenly Venerate.

Originally, he had no choice but to enter Tiankun Peculiar Land for his son, only to be cruelly imprisoned by the Holy Light Clan, becoming a servant to one of theirs.

Most of the Sun Gods from the Sixfold Heavens were aware of the Holy Light Clan within the Tiankun Peculiar Land.

Logically speaking, they definitely should avoid entering Tiankun Peculiar Land.

Even if they entered, they would stay away from the Holy Light Clan.

But that one not only did not avoid it but even imprisoned Wandering Souls.

How could he not be alarmed now?

Had that Sun God lost his mind?

"Heavenly Venerable, what shall we do?" the mythical figure asked tentatively.

Heaven Lame Heavenly Venerate squinted, "In the following Yin Soul Patrol Heaven, stay further away from that individual. We’ll wait until the master finishes his retreat to decide."

Upon hearing this, the mythical being finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But the worry on his face never faded.

If the master came out and blamed him, he would probably not escape death.

Seasons changed from spring to autumn.

Days and months circled round.

Six years flashed by in an instant.

In the military camp, Qi Yuan slept without a sleeping pose.

"Alas, these Wandering Soul Envoys have become smart, patrolling underground instead of in the skies!"

That’s right, over all these years, not only had Qi Yuan been stealthily observing the Myriad Ghosts Soul Banner, but he had also been gathering Wandering Souls.

Giving those homeless Wandering Souls a proper job.

The Holy Light Sect wasn’t as overbearing as imagined; their patrols always avoided Qi Yuan.

At first, it was fine as they kept a significant distance from Qi Yuan.

It took a great deal of effort for Qi Yuan to bring those homeless Wandering Souls back.

Their patrols grew more and more remote and covert, not daring to make any obvious moves.

This time it had gone too far, they weren’t patrolling the skies anymore, but tunneling into the earth instead!

Fortunately, Qi Yuan was quick-witted and immediately discovered the whereabouts of the Wandering Soul Envoys, rescuing his soul brothers from beneath the ground.

"Master, Shi Pan requests an audience!"

Just then, a voice came, and a young man with a proud figure, carrying an air of valiance, appeared not far away.

This man was Shi Pan.

Compared to the childishness of six years ago, he had matured a lot and had become a cultivator as well.

"Come in," Qi Yuan said languidly.

It seemed there was another harvest this time.

But this time,
