Spirit Hunters of Maoshan Sect-Chapter 236
Chapter 236
Chapter 236 Pass the Test
“He left?” Xiao Ma sounded out after a long silent moment .
Ye Shaoyang raised his leg and kicked his butt, “You are such an asshole to go looking for trouble . Thank General Ox-Head for his kindness . If not, I don't know what's going to happen on us!”
Xiao Ma rubbed his butt and timidly said, “But I was telling the truth . We did kill a spirit commissioner… . ”
“Are you stupid or are you an idiot? Why are you mentioning the killing of a spirit commissioner if General Ox-Head did not ask about it? Spirit commissioners are narrow-minded . They think your words are a taunt to them!”
Only now did Xiao Ma realize the seriousness of his mistake, so he stared blankly at Ye Shaoyang, “What if we really get into a fight? Will they capture us and bring us to the Netherworld Council?”
“Unlikely,” Ye Shaoyang replied as he gazed in the direction that the two spirit commissioners disappeared before he continued, “If we get into a fight, I still have ways to wind this matter up, but it might get me into some trouble to settle it . ”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah, who are you, the Heavenly Master who dares to fight with the spirit commissioners!”
“Shoo! Don't sabotage me and get me into more trouble!”
“Little Trickster, the General Ox-Head beside the spirit commissioner was the Ox-Head from the Ox-Head and Horse Face?” Xie Yuqing interrupted their conservation out of curiosity .
Ye Shaoyang shook his head and said, “He is General Ox-Head . Don't ask further . The details of the Netherworld Council can be considered a heavenly secret . It is better for you not to know too much about it . ”
The three of them believed in him at once and did not ask anymore .
Deep in Ye Shaoyang’s thought, he felt strange about this whole incident: Even if Jin Shuai had committed countless crimes throughout his life, he was just a nobody in the Netherworld Council . Furthermore, it was ridiculous for General Ox-Head to come in person… . Moreover, they had arrived way faster than usual . A moment after Jin Shuai died, they were here to capture his soul . Could they have waited nearby? It did not make sense!
The more he thought about it, the more he was convinced that there was something fishy about the incident . The scene where the spirit commissioner punished Xiao Ma was too dramatic . Although spirit commissioners were narrow-minded, they would not get so angry from such complaint from a mortal . Besides, wasn't the spirit commissioner acting more dominant when General Ox-Head was around? And General Ox-Head only stopped him when the incident almost came to an end . It sounded absurd .
Thinking about it over and over again, he did not feel right about the incident . He had no clue at all, so he did not think any further .
On the other side, at a hilltop opposite the Dead Man Valley, General Ox-Head and the spirit commissioner stared in Ye Shaoyang’s direction as General Ox-Head muttered to himself, “Strange . A monk, a Daoist, a demon, and two… . Why would they stay together?”
The spirit commissioner shook his head . He too wondered about the combination of Ye Shaoyang and his team .
“Hmm?” General Ox-Head let out a strange sound from his nostrils . The spirit commissioner went blank for a while before he realized, “Oh yes, yes, the two snake demons . There shall be no delay in the matter of apotheosizing . ”
As he finished his words, he took out an old notebook from his sleeves, flipped to an empty page, inserted a finger into his mouth to obtain a little saliva, and wrote down Ye Shaoyang’s name on the page .
Surprisingly, the saliva was transparent but turned vermillion once it contacted the page .
“Ye Shaoyang, passed the test, qualified,” said the spirit commissioner, as he turned and looked at General Ox-Head . Then, both of them walked away .
In the Dead Man Valley, they had almost recovered their powers, so they were packing their things and planning to leave .
“What are we going to do with these people?” asked Ye Shaoyang, as he glanced at the group of black witches who were handcuffed at the entrance .
“The local police will take care of them for the moment . The special team will take over the case later . We may leave now . ”
Ye Shaoyang stared at Xie Yuqing with wide eyes, “Umm . . . by walking?”
“Of course,” Xie Yuqing winked at him and said, “I don’t feel like walking either . Why don’t you carry me on your back?”
Her words left Ye Shaoyang speechless . He turned away from her and looked at Tan Xiaohui . Then, he realized that she did not seem like she had just been injured, as she was packing her things quickly and easily . He could not help but ask, “I thought you suffered a few injuries; how did you recover within such a short period?”
“I just took the potions I just mixed . I’m perfectly fine now . ”
Her role in the supreme witch family crossed Ye Shaoyang’s mind . White witches were experts in treating injuries and making potions .
All of them left . Ye Shaoyang was worried that the mysterious young man would not leave along with them . However, he took a step and followed behind Xie Yuqing without saying a word .
Ye Shaoyang looked back at the so-called Dead Man Valley emotionally .
Although Madam Chee’s case was awaiting him to solve, his trip to Sichuan could be considered worthwhile: He got cured, killed the Blood Gu Undead King and Jin Shuai, cleansing two thousand years snake demons and receiving a significant amount of virtues .
The snake demons . A thought struck Ye Shaoyang, They must have transformed into humans . Where are they now and what are they planning to do?
Then, Ye Shaoyang suddenly came up with a thought when he saw Tan Xiaohui was the last on the team . He slowed down his pace intentionally and walked abreast with her and asked, “What is inside the cauldron?”
“It is a cauldron used to make potions . White witches use this cauldron to make all kinds of potions . There are different qualities of cauldrons . My cauldron was made up of unique materials and is considered one of the most valuable ritual tools passed down in our supreme witch family . ”
Ye Shaoyang understood at once, “No wonder your potions are so effective . You can quickly recover from serious injuries before . Awesome!”
Tan Xiaohui felt proud of herself, especially after getting a compliment from Ye Shaoyang . She smiled, as she replied, “Of course . Not only is the cauldron a valuable ritual tool, but our supreme witch family also has many esoteric white witchcraft arts equal to your Inner Maoshan craft . ”
Ye Shaoyang nodded, “Agreed . It’s incredible that you are the descendant of the supreme witch family, and you look so pretty . ”
Tan Xiaohui flushed, and she hung down her head, “Big Brother Shaoyang, you can speak your mind if you have something to tell me . ”
“Nothing much . That was just what I wanted to say,” said Ye Shaoyang, as he scratched the back of his head, “Oh yeah, you know, I know you are good at making healing potions . Can you provide some of them or other better potions?”
Tan Xiaohui chuckled, “I don’t think this matter would be worth licking my shoes for, but every potion only has an effectiveness for a given period . It must be created on the spot, so I can’t give you some now . However, if you need any potions in the future, you can contact me directly .
Ye Shaoyang shrugged disappointedly and said, “I am afraid you are not beside me when I need potions . Besides, we will not be together every day . ”
Tan Xiaohui raised her head and gave him a sweet smile, “Or you can take me as your Daoist apprentice? I can make any potion you want on the spot when you are capturing spirits . ”
