Jiang Ning, of course, wouldn't let these fools have their way. In desperation, he shouted:

"Don't run! What are you doing sneaking around here! Stop and give me an inspection!"

Then, like an arrow released from a bow, it shot out.

"*Drought curse*, how come I have to run into this plague god here!"

"Ice Fatty cursed, 'Although I'm fat, I'm not slow at all... If I'm any slower, I'll be dead.'"

"Who knows? Let's just bear with it for now. Once the Enforcer arrives in Liyue, he will definitely avenge us!"

Another chubby guy huffed and puffed.

"Hey you two, don't run away! Do me a favor, run in a different direction."

Jiang Ning said to the two of them with a smile.

"Who, who would listen to you?"

"I can't breathe," said the chubby man.

"Then don't blame me, okay? It'll hurt a little, just bear with it."

Jiang Ning smiled and kicked each of them back the way they came, also kicking the peach wood plaque with the plum blossom mark to pieces.

Jiang Ning feigned anger and said, "Oh dear, you actually destroyed these things? As expected, you Fools are no good, actually destroying these things that suppress vengeful spirits!"

Ice Fatty: "???"

No, you're the one who kicked us here! Don't you want to listen to what you're saying?

Jiang Ning said, "Damn it, it seems I have to teach you a lesson. Are you going to tell me who sent you here to cause trouble?"

What followed was a brutal and inhumane beating. The screams were so terrifying that they sent chills down the spines of passersby outside Wuwangpo, who would then take a detour, fearing that something unclean might be hiding there.

Looking at the two fools who had been beaten beyond recognition, Jiang Ning nodded with satisfaction.

From a morally superior standpoint, he beat the person up, and then incidentally accomplished his goal of destroying the talisman.

Perhaps we'll even get a reward when we get back!

Anyway, he was Gan Yu's junior brother, Ke Qing's good friend, and a disciple of the immortals.

Faced with the truth spoken by the Fools, the people of Liyue would only think that this series of identities was just sophistry.

"That way, I can learn more about the Soul-Soothing Secret Technique tomorrow..."

Jiang Ning always felt that the Soul-Soothing Secret Technique could complement his powers.

"Now, let's take these two Fools back..."

…………

"What?! It's the Fools again?!"

Hu Tao slammed her hand on the table and stood up, extremely angry.

"All the things I've painstakingly arranged over so long have been destroyed?!"

The next morning, Jiang Ning arrived at the Hall of Rebirth and looked at Hu Tao with an innocent expression.

"Yes, last night I felt there were people over there, so I thought I'd go check it out. Then, those two Fools were acting suspiciously, I don't know what they were doing."

"And they ran away as soon as they saw me. It took me a lot of effort to subdue them before I discovered that your peach wood plaques were all broken on the ground."

"Damn it! The Fools are definitely trying to ruin my business... no, I mean, they're releasing vengeful spirits and causing chaos!"

Hu Tao was very angry.

"I'll have to work overtime for several more nights to finish all this! Ugh! So annoying!"

Hu Tao was getting a little frustrated; she had put in a lot of effort to make those soul-suppressing items.

"How about I come with you in the next couple of days?"

Jiang Ning said.

"This is a good opportunity for me to familiarize myself with my abilities."

"Really? That's wonderful! Sigh, if Yue Haiting hadn't made the first move, I really would have wanted you to be an employee of our Rebirth Hall."

Hu Tao patted Jiang Ning on the shoulder and said.

"If we can't be employees, can we still be friends? I'm still very interested in Wangshengtang."

Jiang Ning said.

Yes, I'm very interested in the soul-soothing secrets of the Rebirth Hall.

"Hehe, you have a good eye! From now on, when you're out and about, just mention my name as the head of the Hall of Rebirth!"

Hu Tao put his arm around Jiang Ning's shoulder, looking like they were best buddies.

Jiang Ning said, "Okay."

Walnut sniffed. What's that smell? It smells so good...

But Hu Tao didn't think much of it. After letting go of Jiang Ning, she said, "See you tonight!"

"Okay, see you tonight."

Jiang Ning said with a smile.

【Host, you're really amazing.】

The system is impressed.

Jiang Ning said, "I knew it. She should thank us."

Your smile is mischievous.

"Didn't you ask me to do something bad...? Okay, let's conserve our energy and wait for tonight."

…………

After dinner, upon learning that Jiang Ning was going out with Hu Tao again, Gan Yu couldn't help but say:

“Junior brother, the Fatui have been making more moves in Liyue lately. You need to be careful. Although the Fatui you captured didn’t confess, there might be some conspiracy going on at Wuwang Slope.”

Jiang Ning said, "I know, senior sister, I'll be careful."

The biggest conspiracy was myself.

But I'm too trusted by people; this kind of status is really great.

Arriving at Wuwangpo on time, Hu Tao was already waiting there.

Seeing Jiang Ning, she smiled and said, "Oh my, you're here! Let's get to work. I've patrolled the area, and thankfully no one is passing by. The vengeful spirits won't come out in the morning, so we can get to work without worry!"

"It's settled then, you here, I'll there, and we'll meet here again."

"Okay..."

Not long after they parted, Jiang Ning secretly turned back and began to follow Hu Tao.

“The Soul-Soothing Secret Technique…” Jiang Ning watched Hu Tao’s movements and the flow of elements.

"I see... It really does help my powers."

The method of calming the soul is not particularly complicated, but that is only true for oneself. For ordinary people, without diligent study and practice, they cannot even get to the beginning.

Jiang Ning said, "Watch it a few more times, and you'll get it..."

Of course, perhaps it was because of the power of the Necromancer that he gained a basic understanding of the soul.

Only then can one understand the flow of elemental forces.

Jiang Ning pursed his lips, then raised his hand and circulated the elemental power within his body.

Walnuts are a soul-soothing secret technique of the fire element, and what scatters are fire butterflies. So, what Jiang Ning has at his fingertips now is an ice butterfly.

"Who is there?"

Sensing the presence of other elemental forces around them, Hu Tao became wary.

"It's me, don't be nervous."

Jiang Ning came out.

Hu Tao said, "What are you doing here? Didn't we agree to go in different directions?"

Jiang Ning said, "Have you forgotten that I still can't distinguish between souls that can be saved and souls that can be sent away directly? What if I send away a soul that can be saved easily? Wouldn't that disrupt the order of Yin and Yang?"

Hu Tao thought about it and realized that it seemed to be true.

51. How to make an outsider feel like an outsider?

"Alright, since you don't know the way, just follow me. We can handle it together and be more efficient."

Hu Tao muttered.

"I'll leave it to you, Hu Tao, to decide. I'll just act as a henchman for now."

Jiang Ning said with a smile that his reason was indeed able to fool Hu Tao.

Now, by acting together and watching Hu Tao use the Soul-Soothing Secret Technique, we can be completely aboveboard and gain more insights.

I'm not the one who can save you.

"Let's go! There are quite a few vengeful spirits ahead that need to be appeased."

Hu Tao said.

The next step was for Hu Tao and Jiang Ning to perform rituals to release these vengeful spirits, and also to physically release some of the spirits that could not be released.

Jiang Ning also became familiar with and mastered the Soul-Soothing Secret Technique through Hu Tao's repeated battles.

"This thing is really useful..."

Jiang Ning muttered to himself.

In just one night, he was able to use the secret method of calming the soul to determine whether these vengeful spirits were worth performing a ritual to help them pass on to the afterlife.

"This is the last one. I'm tired. Why don't you go last?"
