You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Someone nudged Old Mo quietly, and seeing him look at him with displeasure, lowered their voice and said, "Don't talk nonsense~"

"So you know Xiao Yi is wrong?"

Old Mo glanced at the man, who wasn't intimidated at all and quietly pointed at Su Chen: "He only accepted a disciple today. With a master as powerful as him, how could Xiao Yi be any less?"

"Besides, didn't you realize someone was teaching?"

Old Mo: "..."

He paused, looking at Fang Yi with a hint of apology in his eyes and a somewhat unnatural expression. He chuckled twice, then silently took two steps back, pulling his son and daughter-in-law in front to shield them.

Seeing this, the others shook their heads.

Even in his old age, he still can't keep his mouth shut. When problems arise, he only knows to ask his family to cover for him. He has no sense of responsibility whatsoever.

But their gazes quickly fell on Fang Yi and Su Chen.

I'm hoping to glean something from their expressions.

If I were really possessed...

That's because they're saying Liu the Madman has that... thing on him now, right?

In broad daylight, someone suddenly shook his body, rubbed his arms, and took a few steps back, distancing himself from Liu the Madman.

Fang Yi was clearly unaffected by Lao Mo's words, and his expression remained unchanged.

Su Chen smiled and nodded.

"You're just starting out, it's normal that you're not sensitive to breath yet."

As he spoke, he made hand seals. At first, everyone could still make out the general shape, but gradually, only a blur remained. Then, he suddenly stopped, as if something had shot out.

Fang Yi felt a sudden coolness between his brows, and before he could feel it any longer, he felt something breaking out of its cocoon.

Su Chen's voice rang in her ears: "If you want to sense the aura more directly, it's best to open your third eye and be mentally prepared."

Open your third eye!

Although Fang Yi was surprised, he knew that he hadn't read the book for nothing, and he subconsciously took a deep breath.

The next moment, he felt something dissipate from between his eyebrows, and the surrounding sky seemed to darken.

Even with my eyes closed, I can still perceive everything around me, though the outlines aren't very distinct.

He was terrified and quickly turned around slowly.

Su Chen didn't urge him, and just quietly watched him turn around.

When his gaze fell on Liu Fengzi, Fang Yi's small frame trembled slightly, but his brows quickly furrowed.

"Master, it's a woman."

The people in the courtyard murmured among themselves upon hearing this.

Liu the Madman is clearly a man, so how can this child be said to be a woman?

what's the situation?

They exchanged glances and then quietly stepped back.

Is Liu the Madman really possessed by a ghost?

It looks like a female ghost!

That's terrifying!

The elderly Liu couple reacted a little more strongly than the others. They exchanged glances, silently suppressing the hatred in their eyes, and looked at Su Chen with expectation in their eyes.

Su Chen met Fang Yi's gaze and nodded slightly.

"Hmm, the aura emanating from her is a dark gray color, a mixture of yin and evil energy."

Fang Yi: "I understand, Master."

"Normal yin energy and malevolent energy..."

Su Chen continued speaking, and Fang Yi saw the dark gray aura in front of him gradually separate as if it sensed some external force pulling it apart, and the female ghost also began to struggle violently.

As a result, Liu Fengzi exerted almost all his strength, trying to break free from the wooden board.

Even though his hands and feet were bound with thick cloth, they were almost completely soaked in blood.

His parents were so frightened that they reflexively pounced on him and restrained his hands and feet.

But it only lasted for a moment; soon Liu Fengzi was completely unable to move.

The aura emanating from the female ghost was also successfully separated. Her entire body was light gray, while the other part that was extracted was as black as ink.

"Master, what remains on her body is yin energy, and this is malevolent energy, right?"

Su Chen nodded: "You can experience it now."

Fang Yi nodded, took two steps forward, and raised his hand.

When he came into contact with the female ghost, he only felt a chilling aura seep into his palm, but the malevolent energy...

At first, I didn't feel anything special, but soon I felt irritable and suffocated, as if there was a fire inside me that I wanted to vent...

Fang Yi frowned for a moment, and then, as if testing the Yin energy, he immersed his entire head in the evil energy.

In just three seconds, he could no longer hold on and wanted to retreat, but the malevolent aura clung to him like a bone-deep wound.

tyrannical, bloodthirsty...

Countless negative emotions swirled in Fang Yi's mind, but he managed to suppress them.

To outsiders, all they saw was Fang Yi's face suddenly turn red, and then redder and redder.

Fang Yi's father looked to Su Chen for help, wanting to know what was going on, only to see Su Chen gently beckon with his finger.

The malevolent energy that had been hovering over Fang Yi's head was quickly drawn away and reformed into a ball, hovering in front of him.

The latter breathed a sigh of relief, her flushed face quickly returning to normal. Although a trace of fear lingered in her eyes, her breathing had calmed down in a short time. She turned to Su Chen and said, "Thank you, Master!"

Su Chen smiled and gestured for him to come over.

He flipped his hand and took out the lightning-attracting talisman.

"Alright!"

Seeing him slowly nod, he picked up the lightning-summoning talisman, channeled his power into it, and said in a deep voice, "Amitabha!"

The lightning-summoning talisman suddenly lit up.

A thunderclap boomed in broad daylight.

Fang Yi watched as a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down, landing precisely on the mass of malevolent energy, his eyes gleaming.

Su Chen took out a lightning-attracting talisman: "Give it a try!"

Fang Yi tried to figure it out himself. He failed the first time, and the lightning was slightly off-target the second time, but it was only a few inches away from the evil energy.

With Su Chen's encouraging gaze, he accepted another lightning-summoning talisman.

Thunder rumbled again.

People in the courtyard become familiar with each other after the first time, and by the third time, they've become used to it.

As the lightning struck, the remaining malevolent energy was completely dispelled, and a rare smile appeared on Fang Yi's face.

"Master~"

He looked at Su Chen with bright, sparkling eyes.

"Hmm, not bad!"

Upon receiving Su Chen's praise, Fang Yi's smile widened even further.

"Next up is this female ghost."

Su Chen snapped his fingers, and the female ghost that was clinging to Liu Fengzi was pulled away by him.

After putting it down, he gestured for Fang Yi to give it a try.

Unfortunately, Fang Yi was a beginner. Although he could project his Dao power outwards a little, he lacked control over it. After trying for about five minutes, his forehead was covered in fine sweat. No matter how he tried to control his Dao power, the azure aura remained in his palm.

Not to mention, like Su Chen, it can easily split into tough, thin threads to bind the female ghost tightly.

Realizing the vast difference in ability, Fang Yi decisively gave up and looked at Su Chen: "Master, I can't do it now."

"Mm." Su Chen nodded.

The female ghost in front of the table remained dazed throughout, clearly having been affected by the evil energy for a long time and almost losing her mind.

Fang Yi re-examined her, his gaze quickly settling on one spot.

"Master, it seems that this female ghost is connected to Liu the Madman by a rope."

Upon hearing this, the people in the courtyard couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.

Su Chen nodded: "Yes, that's the marriage line."

"The marriage line?" Fang Yi hadn't actually read about this in the books he had previously consulted.

Su Chen explained for a few moments, and Fang Yi pondered seriously for a while.

"Master, Liu the Madman has never been married. In this situation, is it possible that someone arranged a ghost marriage for him?"

"What? A ghost marriage?!"

The Liu couple exclaimed in surprise.
