Chapter 6 Incident

When Jiang Chen moved a box of Talisman paper in front of Ye Fashan, Ye Fashan was already shocked beyond measure.

He tremblingly picked up an eighth-Rank Soul-Calming Talisman from inside and asked in disbelief, "Is this also drawn by you?"

Jiang Chen nodded.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Ye Fashan's expression darkened: "Junior Brother, do you know what it means for an ordinary person to draw an eighth-Rank Talisman from scratch within three days?"

Jiang Chen blinked: "What does it mean?"

"Unless you are a True Immortal Reincarnation, a naturally born immortal seed!"

He was likely not a naturally born immortal seed, and as for being a True Immortal Reincarnation, that was even less possible for him.

However, Jiang Chen had an even more powerful alter ego, and this alter ego was called a cheater.

"Senior Brother, how long did it take you to draw an eighth-Rank Talisman back then?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.

Ye Fashan paused and stammered: "I, I only took... ten or fifteen days back then."

In reality, it took him a full three months, but he was too embarrassed to say so.

"Senior Brother, if you don't believe me, I can just draw another one for you."

As he spoke, Jiang Chen took out yellow paper and cinnabar, and with a casual flick of his wrist, his brush danced across the paper like a Dragon.

As Jiang Chen's True Qi poured into it, an eighth-Rank Exorcism Talisman was quickly completed.

【Experience required for Exorcism Talisman upgrade: 64 / 100】

Ye Fashan's eyes widened; Junior Brother's speed at drawing Talismans didn't seem to be slower than his own!

Moreover, this Talisman was a genuine eighth-Rank Exorcism Talisman, and a high-quality one at that!

He smacked his lips, feeling a bit dry in his mouth.

Ye Fashan gave a wry smile: "Junior Brother, Senior Brother finally understands why Revered Master wanted to take you as a disciple."

He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "Originally, I thought you might need two more months of tempering before you could Cultivate the Huangting Classic, but I've changed my mind now. Starting tomorrow, I will formally guide you to enter the Dao!"

It was finally here!

Jiang Chen's spirit stirred; this was the day he had been waiting for.

Although the Golden Light Incantation also came with Cultivation effects, because he lacked a Cultivation Technique, the spiritual energy absorbed by the Golden Light Incantation could only be stored in his body, gradually being digested and absorbed by his body, but his Dao practice did not improve much.

Now his Physique was more than twice as strong as before, but if the Golden Light Incantation were not counted, he would still be a mere mortal.

"Get a good rest tonight. One must have a calm spirit when facing major events; this is also something you need to learn."

After Ye Fashan finished his instructions and left, Jiang Chen finally felt that familiar sensation again.

His head started to spin again.

Finally, his consciousness sank, and when he woke up again, he had returned to reality.

Jiang Chen immediately picked up his phone to check the time: June 27th.

So, only one night had passed!

But he had stayed in the Tang Dynasty for nearly three full days!

A nearly six-fold time difference; the time flow on both sides was different?

Jiang Chen was somewhat excited; this way, his time for Cultivation could increase again.

However, before he could finish being excited, a phone call came in.

"Brother Chen, something happened..."

Jiang Chen's excited expression froze in an instant.

...

When he rushed to the hospital and arrived at the intensive care unit, several people were already waiting outside.

Including Zhou Ming, the captain of their Night Watcher squad.

As soon as Zhou Ming saw Jiang Chen arrive, he was furious: "It's all your fault! If you hadn't been lazy and refused to keep watch last night, how could Lu Xingye have ended up in trouble!"

As he spoke, he threw a punch directly at Jiang Chen's face.

If hit by this punch, he would at least lose two molars.

"Slap!"

With a crisp and dull sound, Jiang Chen steadily caught Zhou Ming's fist.

Zhou Ming was in disbelief; the fact that he could be the leader of the Night Watcher squad naturally meant his combat power was the highest among them.

But now, what was going on?

Zhou Ming wanted to retract his fist, but his fist was firmly locked in Jiang Chen's palm; no matter how hard he tried, it wouldn't budge.

"Let go of me!" Zhou Ming's forehead veins bulged, his face twisted, and he kicked toward Jiang Chen.

But Jiang Chen's leg raised faster, kicking him directly in the chest and sending him flying four or five meters away.

The other team members were dumbfounded.

Since when was Jiang Chen so fierce?

"How is Lu Xingye?" Jiang Chen had no time to pay attention to Zhou Ming and asked the others directly.

One of the Night Watchers, who had a decent relationship with Jiang Chen, sighed slightly: "All four limbs are broken, he was stabbed three times in the abdomen, his femoral artery was slashed, and there are traces of evil ghost bites on his body. The perpetrator did it on purpose."

"The doctor said they can only do their best. If it weren't for Xingye's good Physique and the fact that he was discovered in time, an ordinary person would have been gone by now."

Jiang Chen's gaze turned cold; Lu Xingye had only ended up in trouble because he was covering for him during the night watch.

Otherwise, it would have been he, Jiang Chen, who ended up in trouble. At this moment, Jiang Chen felt both regret and immense rage.

"Who did this?"

"The 749 Bureau investigation says it should be a guy who previously raised ghost minions. That guy hated the 749 Bureau but didn't dare to provoke them, so he set his sights on the Night Watcher department."

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and immediately realized who he was talking about.

Ma Dajiang, 749 Bureau file, Disaster Rank E. He was previously reported by a neighbor for raising ghost minions, and then the 749 Bureau came to his door.

Although they didn't catch him, they wiped out all the ghost minions he had carefully raised.

The most critical thing was that the one who handled this public report was Jiang Chen.

It was said that he raised these ghost minions to accumulate wealth for himself, so he often had windfall income. However, what remained unchanged was that after this windfall income, it would disappear at an even faster rate.

Either it was squandered, lost in gambling, or stolen.

The 749 Bureau inferred that while these ghost minions brought him wealth, they also affected his other fortunes and his entire person. Now, he had directly resorted to hurting people.

"Are there any clues about him now?"

That person looked at Jiang Chen with a complicated expression: "Brother Chen, this time he might be coming for you. The 749 Bureau destroyed his hidden lair and found several photos of you inside."

"Coming for me?" Could it be that because Ma Dajiang didn't dare to retaliate against the 749 Bureau, he was prepared to make a move against him?

"Alright, I understand. You guys keep watch here for now, and don't go to the Night Watcher department for the time being."

Seeing Jiang Chen turn to leave, that person subconsciously asked: "Brother Chen, where are you going?"

Jiang Chen walked to the hospital corridor entrance. Hearing the voice, his figure paused, and he spat out two cold words from the corners of his lips.

"Exorcise ghosts."

Walking out of the hospital, Jiang Chen sighed slightly. The current method could only be to wait for the rabbit to hit the tree stump.

Since that guy was so crazy that he dared to break into a Night Watcher branch, it meant that he was now in a state of not fearing death.

As long as he waited for the rabbit to hit the tree stump, he would definitely come again.

Jiang Chen went home and took out a tang dynasty straight sword from his storage room that was covered in some dust and looked a bit worn.

But when Jiang Chen rinsed it with water, the tang dynasty straight sword immediately flashed with silver light, without a trace of rust.

This sword was something he had picked up from an antique shop, and he only occasionally handled it.

"Now, it is time for you to serve your purpose."

The tang dynasty straight sword's blade trembled slightly, emitting a small buzzing sound, as if responding to Jiang Chen's words.
