âI happened to come over to see how you were doing, and in time for the top to send you the bronze sword, so I brought it along with me.â Master Mao put the wooden box containing the bronze sword on the table and admonished. âItâs rare for you to apply for something from the higher ups, so when you asked for the bronze sword this time, the top management approved it for you almost without thinking. But I must remind you that itâs very dangerous to put this sword around you.â
âI know.â When the evil spirit rioted violently in the research room last time, the Assistant Group together with Master Mao concealed everything. If the above knew that this sword would trigger the evil spirit, then this sword would definitely be strictly kept.
âIf something happens again this time, I wonât help you hide it anymore,â Master Mao said.
âUnderstood.â Lou Ming smiled, âShishi has a magical weapon, so naturally she will be safer when catching ghosts. Besides, you also said that a malevolent ghost of the level of the Ghost King is rarely seen.â
âThatâs true, the Luoshan Sectâs ghost repelling technique is ranked among the top three in the metaphysical world. Although Little Friend Chen is very young, her cultivation is already high. With the Bronze Swordâs protection, I think she wonât encounter any more danger.â This was also the reason Master Mao agreed to give the Bronze Sword to Chen Yu. It was only when Chen Yu was safe would Lou Ming not act rashly.
âBy the wayâŠâ Speaking of the Ghost King, Lou Ming suddenly remembered Qi Changming. âHas the Celestial Master who manipulated the Ghost King before been caught?â
âYes,â Master Mao couldnât help but smile when he brought this up, âThat Qi Changming is very powerful in escaping. The Six Teams hunted him for five days, but still let him escape back to the White Mountain.â
The so-called Six Teams was an arrest team established by the metaphysical organization specifically to catch those bad Celestial Masters who used metaphysical methods to harm people. They were equivalent to the police in metaphysical circles.
Lou Ming was surprised: âHe fled back to White Mountain?â
âThere is a White Mountain Sect in White Mountain, and Qi Changming is from there. The White Mountain Sect is a relatively isolated sect in the metaphysical world.â Master Mao introduced, âTheir founding ancestor was a bigoted Celestial Master. During the war period, he took advantage of the peopleâs unhappiness and the worldâs deep grievances and refined a lot of malevolent ghosts, which later evolved into Ghost Kings after long periods.â
âGhost Kings are very powerful, and ordinary Celestial Masters canât rival them easily, so the White Mountain Sect gradually flourished. Later, the war stopped. The worldâs grievances were no longer so deep, and many of the evil spirits returned to hell. Refining Ghost Kings also became increasingly difficult, so the White Mountain Sect gradually declined.â Master Mao explained, âThat Qi Changming is the current White Mountain Sect patriarchâs last disciple. Because of his outstanding aptitude, plus his master likes him, his master passed on a Ghost King to him.â
âPassing on one to him? That White Mountain Sect must have more than that Ghost King. So did he escape back to the White Mountain Sect to let his master shelter him?â Lou Ming was puzzled. âThen how did the Six Teams catch him later?â
âWhen they first arrived in White Mountain, the leaders of the Six Teams also considered this problem. Although the White Mountain Sect has declined, itâs impossible that they only have one Ghost King. When they were hesitating whether to go up the mountain to catch him, Gu Rufeng, the sectâs patriarch, personally tied him up and sent him over,â Master Mao narrated with another smile.
