Twisted Dreams-Chapter 189 - 159: Disciple of Spirit-Mounting

The sunset hung in the western sky, setting a vast expanse of clouds ablaze.

Ye Fan returned to the creek, carrying two roasted chickens and two bottles of Niulan Mountain liquor.

"Master Liu! Master Liu!"

Ye Fan called out twice, but no one answered.

"Strange, where did he go? Did he fall asleep?"

Ye Fan muttered to himself.

At this moment, Mo Yulin’s voice entered his mind:

"Something’s wrong."

Ye Fan quickly asked:

"What’s the matter, teacher?"

Mo Yulin’s voice became somber:

"Master Liu’s in trouble. You can’t see it, let me help you."

A strange Spiritual Power flowed from the ring into Ye Fan’s eyes.

Ye Fan saw things that ordinary people couldn’t see.

His eyes gradually widened with terror as he dropped the roasted chicken and Niulan Mountain liquor from his hands.

A massive wild chicken neck stood blankly by the creek.

There was a hideous and terrifying hole at its vulnerable seven-inch point.

"Roasted chicken... wine... Ye Fan..."

It murmured.

Ye Fan trembled all over, his lips quivering. It took a while before he could speak:

"Master... Master Liu... what on earth is going on!"

Mo Yulin said sternly:

"Quickly, give me control of your body.

Once Master Liu’s consciousness dissipates, we’re in trouble!"

Ye Fan hesitated for a moment.

Is the teacher trying to help Master Liu gather his consciousness?

Oh, right, the teacher knows the Spiritual Body Gathering Technique!

"Okay, okay!" Ye Fan didn’t dare delay, relaxing his body.

Ye Fan’s aura changed, and his eyes became clouded and seasoned.

He formed a seal with his hands, shouting:

"Spiritual Body Gathering Technique!"

Master Liu’s body emitted a white light, gradually gathering Spiritual Power around him, intensifying the white glow.

Master Liu’s snake-like eyes regained their luster, glaring at ’Ye Fan’ and shouted angrily:

"What are you? Why are you in Ye Fan’s body? Get out of there!"

Mo Yulin returned the body to Ye Fan, who quickly asked:

"Master Liu, how do you feel?"

Master Liu trembled all over, his incorporeal body swayed like smoke.

Master Liu remembered.

He was dead.

He was ambushed and killed by a group of people using Talismans.

Master Liu also realized his predicament, looking at the scattered white liquor and roasted chicken on the ground, regretfully saying:

"I never got to eat it after all."

Ye Fan felt a deep pain inside:

"What exactly happened to you?"

Master Liu sighed:

"It’s a long story..."

He once had murderous thoughts against Ye Fan, and against Wei Ming.

He had no murderous intent against those Talisman Sect disciples, yet he met such a tragic fate.

Ye Fan listened to Master Liu’s story, burning with rage.

Those bastards from the Talisman Sect.

Han Hai killed the teacher, and yet those disciples of the Talisman Sect willingly served the traitor, using despicable means to kill Master Liu.

Unforgivable, absolutely unforgivable!

Ye Fan looked coldly at the path down the mountain:

"Master Liu, I will avenge you."

Master Liu said softly:

"If possible, I would like to do it myself."

He was a soul, not an aberration like the Eight-foot Bride, unable to harm the living.

Ye Fan said:

"If you’re not afraid to dirty your hands, then you can do it yourself!"

...

In Bai Mountain City, at the Safety Management Station, inside an office.

"Thanks to Mr. Bi, otherwise the Security Administration still wouldn’t have concrete evidence of the demon’s existence."

The man speaking, short and stout, was an Intermediate Administrator of the Security Administration, leader of the fledgling Eagle Group, codenamed Bai Ge.

After Wei Ming returned to the Imperial Capital, Bai Ge took over the Bai Mountain City Safety Management Station.

Bai Ge was also personally promoted by Deputy Director Zheng Qian.

Sitting across from him was a Talisman Sect Disciple, Bi Chenyu.

It was thanks to his clever idea of posing as Ye Fan’s friend that they succeeded in ambushing Master Liu.

Bi Chenyu pointed to his head and said:

"Just a beast, brainless, no matter how powerful, it can’t compare to humans."

Bai Ge nodded repeatedly in agreement, chuckling:

"You’ve done such a great deed, you should host a couple of banquets to celebrate, but unfortunately, I’m busy tonight."

Bi Chenyu exclaimed in surprise:

"So late, and you still have assignments?"

After speaking, he immediately slapped his mouth, his face filled with regret:

"Look at my big mouth, asking about your mission is none of my business."

Bai Ge said nonchalantly:

"We’re all friends introduced by Director Zheng, nothing we can’t say.

I have to escort the body of this Snake Demon back to the Imperial Capital overnight."

Bi Chenyu was taken aback:

"Tonight? In such a hurry?"

Bai Ge nodded and said:

"Yes, the authorities are very concerned about Demon matters."

Bi Chenyu smiled:

"Then I wish you all the best."

Bai Ge chuckled:

"That’s certain, we’ll have plenty of opportunities to work together in the future.

I’ve already booked hotels for the gentlemen from the Talisman Sect, rest well tonight."

Bi Chenyu knew Bai Ge was seeing them off, so he rose and cupped his fists:

"Alright, then let’s wait for Officer Bai Ge to return triumphantly, and we’ll drink to our heart’s content!"

...

Now that the weather is warmer, having skewers and ice-cold beer at night is quite delightful.

Especially in the Northeast, skewer culture is quite famous.

The Talisman Sect disciples found a street stall, ordered a table full of skewers, drank, and ate meat happily.

There were six sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, indicating there was another person besides the Talisman Sect disciples.

Bi Chenyu, holding a beer, slurred his words a bit as he said:

"Since that person isn’t here, brothers, let’s have an honest conversation.

You all owe me a toast first, and support me for the position of Elder next time.

If it weren’t for my composure to deceive that old guy, we all would have ended up in the snake’s stomach."

The Talisman Sect disciples clearly knew that it was the old snake’s reaction to Ye Fan’s name that let them off, but no one cared now.

What mattered to them was the reward promised by the Sect Leader.

The Demon corpse could be exchanged for the Sect Leader’s reward.

They flattered:

"Third brother is indeed smart!"

"Thanks to third brother! Our lives will be much easier from now on!"

"The Sect Leader won’t shortchange us, hahaha!"

"Even if we’re just rewarded with an Immortal Herb, we can exchange it for a house."

Bi Chenyu was so flattered that he forgot how he had wet his pants in fear, laughing heartily as he drank.

He spotted two charming figures not far away, two youthful and beautiful girls, seemingly students from Bai Mountain City.

Having had enough to eat and drink, thoughts turned to desires.

Bi Chenyu got up, holding his drink, walked over, and with beer breath said:

"Hey hey, two beauties, let’s have a drink together."

Several Talisman Sect disciples began to make a racket.

The short-haired girl saw so many drunkards, felt a bit scared, and said nothing with her head down.

The long-haired beauty was bolder, giving Bi Chenyu no face at all:

"Drink what, go stand aside if you’re drunk, don’t make a fool of yourself here."

Bi Chenyu laughed and said:

"I like spicy girls like you, name your price!"

The long-haired beauty got angry directly:

"Get lost!"

The surrounding tables watched the fun, eager to see how the drunken man, being insulted, would handle himself.

Bi Chenyu, feeling awkward and embarrassed, swung his hand at the long-haired beauty:

"Do you know who I am?!"

At this moment, a large hand grabbed Bi Chenyu’s hand.

"What a disgrace to the Talisman Sect."

Bi Chenyu, annoyed, turned to see who dared to oppose him.

Soon, Bi Chenyu’s eyes filled with astonishment.

Ye Fan!

The astonishment in Bi Chenyu’s eyes gradually turned to joy:

"Damn, Ye Fan!"

He wanted his juniors to surround Ye Fan, but a trace of hesitation appeared in his heart.

Flirting with girls was fine, but using Extraordinary Power in public would surely cause a lot of trouble.

Bi Chenyu said:

"Ye Fan, dare you find a secluded place for a magical duel?"

Ye Fan murmured to himself:

"Invoke Changbai Mountain Dining Bowl, Liu Family, Master Liu possess me!"

Ye Fan wasn’t afraid of causing chaos by killing in the streets.

As long as it was right and proper, he could act without consideration.

This group was originally scum of the Talisman Sect, and they attacked and killed Master Liu. Living even a second longer made Ye Fan uncomfortable.

Ye Fan’s aura changed.

It became cold, violent.

Pupils transformed into dark-golden snake eyes!

’Ye Fan’s’ lips curled into a cold arc, and he spoke:

"Boy, I spared your life, and you dare to sneak attack me, I’ll skin you alive!"

Bi Chenyu’s eyes filled with terror, as if he saw the old snake’s shadow on Ye Fan!

He recalled a legend from the Northeast.

No ordinary person could invite the ’Immortal Family’ to possess their body.

Such a person was called a Chema disciple, and the ’Immortal Family’ included the five types of great demons in the Northeast: Liu, Huang, Bai, Hui, and Fox.

Bi Chenyu swallowed hard:

"Are you the Snake Demon?!"
