Chapter 337: Chapter 234: Dao’s Soul Summoning Technique!

Inside the funeral shop.

Xu Yang handed the freshly drawn Daoist talismans to Ma Xiaotiao and said, “Since you became my apprentice, I haven’t given you anything decent. Keep these talismans with you; they can help you if something happens.”

“Ah…”

Ma Xiaotiao hurriedly said, “Master, this is too much.”

Xu Yang: “There are just over a hundred, what’s too much about that?”

“…”

Ma Xiaotiao was speechless for a moment.

Isn’t this a lot?

The Divine Ascension Scripture states that Daoist talismans are extremely difficult to draw, and each talisman represents the painstaking effort of the creator… Is Master treating me so well?

For a moment, Ma Xiaotiao felt a sour sensation in his nose and accepted the talismans, saying, “Thank you, Master!”

“It’s just some talismans; there’s no need to thank me.”

Xu Yang pointed at the talismans and said, “By the way, there are eight types of these talismans. This one is the Wulei Talisman, which has great power; do not use it unless necessary. This one is the Fire talisman, which should also be used with caution.”

“There are also Diamond Talismans, Movement Talismans, Divine Strength Talismans, Invisibility Talismans, Wall-penetrating Talismans, and Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talismans… Carry a few of each with you for emergencies.”

Soon.

The Spirits Management Bureau and the police arrived.

Xu Yang wasn’t surprised.

Although the “murder” just now was a martial world dispute, it happened in broad daylight, so the proper procedures still had to be followed.

As soon as the police arrived, they cordoned off the area where there were bloodstains on the road, took photos for evidence, and then hurried off.

On the Spirits Management Bureau side, Xu Yang’s old acquaintances, Wang Lin and BaiWei arrived.

Now Bai Wei’s cultivation was more profound, her vitality was surging, and the subtle will of martial arts on her body was more apparent. It seemed that she could step into the realm of “Grandmaster” at any moment!

However, one should not underestimate this “half-step”.

Some martial artists can make a breakthrough in this realm quickly.

But there are also many martial artists who are stuck in this “half-step” for years or even more than a decade without making any progress.

“Supreme Sage Xu!”

“Sect leader Xu!”

Bai Wei and Wang Lin each called out different titles, and Xu Yang laughed and scolded, “Enough! We’ve known each other for so long, there’s no need to be so formal… How’s the situation in Wu City lately?”

Upon mentioning the situation in Wu City, Wang Lin’s entire face was filled with joy.

He said, “Master Xu, since your wedding, both the Wu City area and the entire Xi Xia Province have seen Yin spirits and malevolent beings becoming more peaceful… In Wu City, there was only one mysterious case during this time.”

“And the day after that case occurred, we received a call from a self-proclaimed Good Samaritan from the Xi Xia Ghost Market. With the clues provided, we solved the case quickly and successfully captured the Yin spirit.”

“Our team members have been running around these two years, our legs are almost worn out, and now we finally have time to rest.”

Xu Yang laughed, “These guys did a good job… By the way, did you reward the informant from the Ghost Market?”

“Ah?”

Both Wang Lin and Bai Wei were startled.

Reward… a ghost with a reward?

How would they do that?

Xu Yang shook his head with a smile, “It seems you still don’t understand ghosts… Many of the ghosts in the Xi Xia Ghost Market are living in difficulty; if you burn some paper and items for them, it would be a huge encouragement for those Yin spirits and malevolent beings. Maybe next time there’s a mysterious case, they’ll even bring the criminal ghosts to your Supernatural Affairs Bureau voluntarily!”

Wang Lin and Bai Wei were half-convinced, but since Xu Yang said it, they had to give it a try.

Wang Lin bought some netherworld currency and paper offerings on the spot in Xu Yang’s shop and asked, “Bai Wei, I remember when the ghost called, he mentioned his name and eight characters of birth… Do you have that information?”

After obtaining the name and birth information, Wang Lin burned all the netherworld currency and paper offerings at the entrance of the funeral shop.

He returned to the funeral shop and asked about the recent “murder” case, saying, “Master Xu, which myopic martial artist ran to our Wu City looking for your trouble?”

“It should be someone from the Trickster Sect.”

Xu Yang said, “I don’t know the old man, but according to his nephew, he has been developing overseas for years and has set up several martial arts centers in the New Mateland area, with many disciples.”

“Trickster Sect?”

Bai Wei immediately took out a tablet, looked up the information, and quickly showed a photo to Xu Yang.

For such well-known “overseas Chinese” masters, the Spirits Management Bureau generally collects their information, and it is not difficult to collect their information in overseas countries, unlike within the country.

Many domestic masters are very low-key, fearing others know about them.

However, in overseas countries, these masters are generally very “high-profile”, even holding regular arena matches and competitions in their circles to gain fame. Otherwise, who would learn martial arts from them or pay them?

Xu Yang took a look and nodded, “Yes, it’s him.”

Bai Wei said, “The Trickster Sect used to be a well-known esoteric sect in ancient Da Xia, with disciples all over the place. They earned a living by performing tricks on the street, with the lineages of Wu, Guan and, Pang three clans being the most prestigious.”

The so-called “esoteric sect” refers to some sects that inherit ‘”esoteric arts” outside of Daoist skills and martial arts.

Of course.

Here, “esoteric arts” is not a derogatory term, but generally refers to some “esoteric arts” outside of Daoist skills and martial arts.

For example, “Yun Mengxi” once practiced “esoteric arts” and ended up turning herself into a zombie.
