The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity
Chapter 321 - 319: The Down Jacket Bought by My Wife (ﾉ)`ω´(ヾ)

Chapter 321: Chapter 319: The Down Jacket Bought by My Wife The Daoist Temple was suffused with the heavy yin energy left by an Evil Ghost, but when Qin Zhao and the old lady entered, they did not see the Evil Ghost, nor did they see any other Ghosts.

"How come it’s not here? It hasn’t gone off to harm people, has it?"

Hearing the old lady’s grumble, Qin Zhao couldn’t help but ask her, "Why do you say that?"

"I sneaked back here once, thinking I might be able to drive it out. I discovered that it could solidify its soul, and it had a human by its side, conversing with the person.

Being able to solidify the soul and appear just like a person, this is something that almost only an Evil Ghost with considerable cultivation could do. I knew I was no match for it, so I could only go back.

Later, other ghosts in the vicinity told me that the Evil Ghost was extremely vicious and had consumed quite a few ghosts, warning me not to provoke it."

Qin Zhao’s eyes narrowed, and he fell into deep thought.

From the incidents with the White Bone Ghost Hand and the Taohua Fairy, it was clear that the ghost did not just deceive humans but also other ghosts. By orchestrating cooperation between humans and ghosts, what benefits could it possibly gain?

At this moment, the Jade Token in Qin Zhao’s hand emitted a faint green glow.

Meng Cun had returned the Jade Token to the old lady, but since she was a soul, she could not directly touch objects from the Human World, so it was temporarily held by Qin Zhao.

By their coming to this place, the Jade Token would activate the contract.

After the light flickered, the Jade Token hung itself around the old lady’s neck. As long as she willed it, the ghosts in this place would be driven out.

However, this item was of no use to the living.

Qin Zhao lingered here for a while longer to see if there were any clues.

Actually, for the living, the feng shui here was mediocre, or one could even say quite bad. There were many graves nearby, and it was easy to be harassed by wandering ghosts and spirits.

For a ghost, though, such a place was indeed ideal as the dense yin energy could nourish the soul.

Qin Zhao was sure that the ghost must have the cultivation of an Evil Ghost!

The place was so dilapidated and deserted that any mortal walking in would feel something off. The ghost must have used an illusion to make it appear as a legitimate temple to humans.

A ghost that could solidify the soul and cast Illusion Techniques was undoubtedly an Evil Ghost.

Or perhaps even of higher cultivation!

Having stayed here for quite some time without seeing any ghosts come by, Qin Zhao said to the old lady, "He might not come back today, let’s leave for now."

"If any ghost comes here, the Jade Token will react, and I can contact you."

"Have you been into the city? Are you sure you can find me?"

"I can send you dreams."

Through what the old lady said, she’d become a ghost for many years and had mastered some ghost techniques. Sending dreams and causing misfortune were among such minor spells.

Since Meng Cun had returned the Jade Token to her, she had already undone his bad luck.

When the two walked out of the Daoist Temple, the old lady said to Qin Zhao, "I’ve found that I can still see the inside of the Daoist Temple, almost like your Human World’s surveillance."

She held the Jade Token in her hand, closed her eyes, and with a mere thought, she could see the inside of the Daoist Temple.

Qin Zhao thought for a moment, "If you could help me keep watch over this place. But sending dreams is too inconvenient, I have to be asleep for you to contact me.

Sometimes, I might not sleep at all and spend the whole night in cultivation.

It would be more convenient for you to contact me using this."

He handed the old lady a Communication Talisman and helped solidify her soul a bit, making her soul’s power stronger so she could use the Communication Talisman.

"Alright, I’ll contact you in a timely manner."

Now that Qin Zhao had said the ghost’s cultivation had reached that of an Evil Ghost, she dared not provoke it even more.

Even though she had the Jade Token for this place, it was not absolutely safe.

If the ghost’s cultivation was stronger than the Heavenly Master who created the Jade Token, it could completely break free from the contract’s restraint and enter the domain of the Jade Token.

She might as well go back first, wait for Qin Zhao to vanquish the ghost, and then come here to recuperate.

"Have you noticed, there are fewer Evil Ghosts around here lately?"

"Hardly any left, I can’t see a single one!"

"There used to be a holdout ghost in the mountains who wouldn’t agree to reincarnate no matter how many times the Netherworld Envoys came. I heard it’s been dead a long time but stumbled upon some luck and thus became an Evil Ghost. But a few days ago, when I passed by that place, it was gone."

"Maybe it finally decided to reincarnate, right? Getting tired of being a ghost, becoming a human again isn’t too bad."

"Yeah, who knows. Anyway, fewer Evil Ghosts is a good thing for us, makes our days a bit more peaceful. Some Evil Ghosts just love to prey on us weaklings, forcing us to hide and scurry about."

As Chu Yan and the old lady were leaving, they heard a lot of ghostly discussions.

After all, there were many graves around here.

It wasn’t until after dark that their happy lives began; many ghosts came out to wander and chat.

When encountering ghosts stronger than oneself, the ones with rich territories could be a bit more at ease as they could hide in the territory of the Jade Tokens, which other ghosts couldn’t enter.

But now with the decline of Heavenly Masters, masters who could make Jade Tokens were few and far between, so ghosts with rich territories were also rare.

If they encountered a ghost that couldn’t be stopped even by a Jade Token contract?

What’s the use of land then? Better run fast!

Otherwise, one wouldn’t just get eaten, but the Jade Tokens would be snatched away too!

Hearing the ghosts’ discussion, Qin Zhao swept over the graves with her powerful Divine Sense, realizing that the ghosts here were very weak, the kind that would be frightened even by a human with a slightly stronger presence.

If she hadn’t suppressed her aura, many here would’ve been scared soulless.

In these suburban areas with many graves and abundant yin energy, strong ghosts were often born, but there were none here, only weak wandering souls, which was odd.

"If it weren’t for that Evil Ghost, this place would indeed be a nice spot to retire."

The old lady said sentimentally. She liked places where the ghosts were weaker but the yin energy was strong.

Weaker ghosts meant she wouldn’t be eaten.

Strong yin energy could nourish her soul.

However, this was a paradox.

In places with strong yin energy, even the soul of a pig could be cultivated into a somewhat powerful Ghost Pig, and it was common for one or two Evil Ghosts to emerge. No Evil Ghosts were the oddity!

What did that imply?

The strong ghosts had been devoured by even stronger ones!

Qin Zhao furrowed her brows, increasingly feeling that the Evil Ghost pretending to be a human Taoist was troublesome. She hoped it hadn’t run off to make trouble elsewhere and would return here.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to find that guy at all. By the time it killed off a bunch of people, she would have no idea.

Originally, Chu Yan planned to come and pick Qin Zhao up, but her location was too remote. It would take a long time to drive there, so Qin Zhao told him not to bother and flew back to the city center on her sword.

When Chu Yan saw Qin Zhao fly in from the balcony, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

"The outdoor cameras caught you; I reckon you’ll be making the news again."

"My flying speed is too fast for the cameras."

Qin Zhao flew faster than any modern means of transport, and even if the cameras caught something, her figure would still be a blur.

"You’ve got a package today, a big one. What did you buy?"

"A down jacket, the weather forecast said it’s going to snow."

She wasn’t afraid of the cold during a snowfall, but Chu Yan was a mortal, right? Since she had recently made quite a bit of money, Qin Zhao bought several pieces of clothing for both herself and him.

Since she couldn’t be bothered to choose styles, she bought matching sets for men and women.

The two down jackets looked similar, just in different colors.

"Aren’t you not afraid of the cold?"

"I bought it for you. Since I was buying for you, I got one for myself too. Wearing just a hoodie in the snowy cold, others might think I’m insane."

"For me?" Chu Yan’s expression froze for a moment, his entire being unresponsive.
