The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity
Chapter 336 - 334: Tengshe, Give Them a Scare

Chapter 336: Chapter 334: Tengshe, Give Them a Scare

After hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but admire Qin Zhao even more.

Such a formidable Evil Ghost—they wouldn’t necessarily have been able to handle it even if all of them had taken it on together.

They would probably have had to call on the ancestors of the Heavenly Master Sect to subdue and suppress it.

"Luckily you handled it, otherwise it would’ve been a big trouble."

Shangguan Jing couldn’t help but remark, suddenly noticing the small snake on Qin Zhao’s shoulder.

"What’s this? Your Spiritual Pet?"

Spiritual Pets were rare, and modern Heavenly Masters had no capability to tame Demon Beasts.

"Yes, this is Tengshe."

As soon as Shangguan Jing said this, everyone’s gaze immediately centered on Tengshe, their eyes sparkling.

"A snake-type Spiritual Pet? It must be incredibly fierce in the future."

"It looks so small, probably still in its juvenile stage, right?"

Qin Zhao smiled, "It’s already quite fierce. Tengshe, show them how fierce you can be."

Tengshe lifted its dizzy little head.

"Roar!"

After showing off its fierceness, it proudly lifted its little head.

Its haughty little expression seemed to ask:

Am I not very fierce?!

"Ah, so cute!"

"Senior Qin, can I pet it?"

Apart from Shangguan Qiu, the other female Heavenly Masters were completely charmed, eagerly looking at Qin Zhao.

"..."

Qin Zhao’s lips twitched, "Go ahead, pet it."

Curiously petted by everyone, Tengshe then dizzily nestled on Qin Zhao’s shoulder, eventually getting scared and running back to the Contract Space, where it immediately started to sleep deeply.

"Senior Qin, you are so formidable. There’s something I’d like to ask for your help with."

A male Heavenly Master, who had come from another place, suddenly spoke up seriously.

"Baishan, are you referring to the mysterious deaths of three people in Jiangling City?"

Shangguan Jing looked at the Heavenly Master who was speaking.

His name was Ren Baishan.

Ren Baishan appeared to be about the same age as Shangguan Jing, making him older than Qin Zhao.

However, the status and titles within the Heavenly Master Sect weren’t determined by age but by the time and ability since joining.

Given that Qin Zhao could exterminate Evil Ghosts and tame Spiritual Pets, it was obvious that his capabilities surpassed everyone present. Furthermore, Shangguan Jing had high praise for him.

Therefore, Ren Baishan felt it appropriate to address him as a senior.

"Up to now, the police still haven’t found any traces. The locals in the city say it was the doing of ghosts. I had previously handled this case, and indeed, the fluctuations in the magnetic fields at the death scenes were extraordinary.

Unfortunately, I’m limited in my abilities and couldn’t figure out what was causing the trouble. This time after coming to Imperial City and discussing this matter with you all, I also wanted to get everyone’s advice."

This incident had already been going on for quite some time.

The Jiangling City police had investigated for several months and still hadn’t gotten anywhere. Later, they even asked a Mystical Sect Master for help, who could only confirm that something unclean was present, but even he couldn’t locate it.

"The three victims were all orphans, usually having no contact with each other, yet the forensic identification on their blood revealed that these three orphans were actually biological siblings.

Not just that, their origins are also linked to a nationally sensational case from many years ago."

Ren Baishan’s recounting successfully piqued Qin Zhao’s interest.

"When are you heading back to Jiangling?"

"Tomorrow."

Ren Baishan was a local of Jiangling, and he had come to Imperial City for a meeting at the Heavenly Master Sect. Unable to resolve the case himself, he wanted to take advantage of the meeting to seek help from a few influential figures in Imperial City.

"I’ll come with you."

"Really?" Ren Baishan’s face lit up. "That’s really great!"

"I’m going too," Shangguan Qiu told them. "I’ve made some progress in my cultivation recently, and it’s a good opportunity to see how formidable this Evil Spirit is."

The sheepskin scroll of the Bo People contained the cultivation techniques for spiritual power.

She and Shangguan Jing were both using this technique to cultivate, and the spiritual power inside their bodies had increased much faster than before.

This was what the Heavenly Master Sect was currently lacking the most. The predecessors had only left them with the inheritance of external arts such as divination, talismans, and Feng Shui, without passing down a systematic method of cultivation.

To enhance the power of these external arts, one needed strong spiritual power as support.

They didn’t have a systematic cultivation technique and could only rely on some experiences of their predecessors to simply grope their way through cultivation, so everyone’s cultivation levels weren’t very impressive.

In fact, a thousand years ago, the Heavenly Master Sect was still very powerful, and the spiritual energy was not so thin. Powerful Heavenly Masters were even treated as distinguished guests by the rulers and even possessed the potent ability to change a nation’s destiny.

Unfortunately, most of the predecessors’ cultivation techniques and secret manuals hadn’t been passed down.

Why they hadn’t been passed down was something they also didn’t know.

After chatting for a while and deciding on the time to leave tomorrow, Qin Zhao and Ren Baishan exchanged contact information.

By the time she got home, it was already six in the evening.

Chu Yan had just finished work and was about to cook dinner for her.

"I need to make a trip to Jiangling tomorrow."

"When will you be back?"

"I don’t know; that case seems quite tricky."

If it weren’t a tricky case, Ren Baishan wouldn’t have come to Imperial City for help.

Hearing that the return was uncertain, Chu Yan felt like joining her, but he was too busy with the hospital and had a pile of things to deal with at the pharmaceutical company; he simply couldn’t get away.

In the end, he could only say, "Then try to come back as soon as you can."

After saying this, he thought, "Do you want me to make some bento for you to take with you?"

He was worried about the food outside and didn’t want her to be unhappy with her meals.

"Sure."

Chu Yan stayed up all night cooking a ton of delicious food for his wife. He had to make extra because he needed to consider Tengshe, the big eater who would snatch food.

Although Chu Yan had prepared himself mentally, when he lay down in bed and embraced Qin Zhao, the thought of not being able to hold her like this tomorrow made him feel a bit down.

"Why don’t you just not go?"

Qin Zhao had just woken up when Chu Yan said this to her, looking pitiful.

"Why?"

"I’m scared to sleep alone. I’m afraid."

Hearing this, Qin Zhao paused while getting up.

She turned her head to look at Chu Yan, her expression conveying a single message:

How could you say something like that?

Can’t you have some dignity?

Chu Yan was unapologetic, even righteously declaring, "I’m already used to sleeping while holding you. If there’s no one beside me, I definitely won’t be able to sleep every night." T^T

"You can sleep holding it."

Qin Zhao picked up a stuffed bear and threw it at Chu Yan’s face.

"But it doesn’t have any warmth."

"Then heat it up with boiling water."

"???"

Qin Zhao’s comment doused Chu Yan’s fussiness as if it were cold water stifling a cradle.

However, seeing all the prepared bento before leaving, she took the initiative to give him a farewell kiss. This act instantly pulled Chu Yan out of his sadness from parting, and he was delighted all day long.

When they arrived in Jiangling, it was already past eight in the evening. Ren Baishan had already arranged their accommodation, telling Qin Zhao and Shangguan Qiu to rest for the night and that he would take them to the site the next day.

"If you have any questions or doubts, come to me," Ren Baishan told them as he led them to their quarters.

Qin Zhao indeed had many doubts, "What is that nationally sensational case about? What connection do the three victims have with this case?"
