Are these a master and apprentice Is this a wandering mage

But I just heard only one footstep a moment ago, could it be that thief's

This master and apprentice look like ghosts. They don't seem like good people.

The Yin-Yang circle is too complex, the line between good and evil is blurred. Some Taoist masters have distinct personalities and act both righteously and wickedly; while others are unscrupulous and take shortcuts.

The voice of that young boy just now must have been his apprentice. Since he could say something like "heavy with impurities," he must be someone who understands some magic and has a bit of cultivation.

He doesn't look very tall, he must still be a minor.

The taller black figure beside him was the "master" he had been calling.

Most of the transmissions within this circle are passed down through families and schools, with very few who can become accomplished through self-study. This is because this circle places great emphasis on seniority and lineage. A person without any background, without a guide, will never be able to reach the core of the circle.

When traveling, it's usually the master who takes the apprentice with them. When the apprentice is capable of standing on their own two feet, they become independent and take on apprentices of their own. Then, they continue the lineage.

This master and disciple duo must have been traveling through this area, sensed something amiss, and came to investigate. As a result, they caught this sneaky person red-handed

The figure in the ditch was probably the person who just peeked into the yard through the door, but he only looked and ran away. Maybe he was just here to scout the place out.

“He fell into the ditch, it’s no surprise he smells. This canal is awful.” replied the tall master.

Where is this mage from, and why is it so "coincidentally" bumping into us

This is a taboo topic in the circle. Even for exorcism, there is an order of precedence. It's very awkward when two wizards clash.

“These two people… they don’t have any evil energy, they should not be bad people.” Mu Wanchen whispered in my ear.

His breath brushed past my ear, making me shiver involuntarily.

The “thief” who had fallen into the pit let out a sigh of relief and shouted from inside the ditch, "You guys! What are you doing This is so unethical! I've got a concussion! How will you take responsibility!"

The voice sounded a little raspy, not quite like a normal person's volume.

The little apprentice stood at the edge of the field and squatted down, addressing the shadowy figure in the ditch. "What are you up to skulking around here You run away when you see us, you must have something to hide! And with all that foul stench on you, what kind of dirty deed have you done"

"Nonsense! I'm a villager from here! No one lives here, I came to check if there were any thieves, but it's dark and someone was injured and sent to the hospital earlier today. I didn't dare go in!"

That shadow's words seemed to make some sense, but how could we believe such self-deceiving excuses

Those who have done wrong always try to conceal their true intentions, beating around the bush and evading direct answers.

"...How do you know someone got injured and hospitalized here during the day Have you been staring at this courtyard all the time You said you weren't a thief, but you're so attentive to your neighbors' affairs. Something's definitely not right about that." The young apprentice argued confidently.

The dark figure cursed and explained that everyone else had moved out, but some people hadn't taken all their belongings yet. He felt something was amiss so he came to check it out.

The young apprentice, after hearing this, was at a loss for words. He could only turn his head to look at his master, waiting for his instruction.

The master said faintly, "Truth does not lie in volume. Only those with guilty consciences make a fuss. There's no need to argue with them; let us go in and have a look."

What Even the master and apprentice are coming into the yard

"What did the Soul Sealer drag out" I whispered.

Mu Wanchen frowned slightly and shook his head. "Don't look," he said.

"Why" I asked curiously.

These things are seemingly useless to you.

No sooner had the words left his lips than the master on that side suddenly spoke up, "Who are you, friend Are you a wizard from the Tongxuan Society"

"Huh What's the Tongxuan Hui" I was taken aback.

Mu Wanchen responded faintly, "We have some connection to this place and just came to take a look."

"Is that so... Which circle of friends"

Oh my, this language is so full of flavor! This person seems like a seasoned veteran.

Mu Wanchen didn't want to have anything to do with these people. He pulled me behind him and whispered, "None of these circles are good, ordinary people shouldn't get involved in this kind of business. If you're wandering mages, it's best not to stir up trouble."

The other party, hearing this, walked a few steps towards us, and asked with some curiosity: "Friend, your aura is unusual. Is there a spirit by your side"

I looked at the Xuan Yue and Ling Zhen on my shoulders, as well as the Feng Hun following behind us. We had so many spirits around us.

"Well, it seems Dao Chang that you have a high level of cultivation," I couldn't help but say.

"Daochang" The other person walked a few steps towards us, shaking their head and saying, "So you're friends of the Taishang Xuanmen But I'm not a Daochang."

"Huh" I couldn't help but peek out from behind Mu Wanchen.

The other party has already turned on their lights, my goodness, they're so bright.

Two light bulbs, one big and one small.

"So, it's the Great Master," I whispered.

The master, who was quite tall, also looked very young, seeming to be in his early twenties, not over thirty years old. The apprentice looked like an elementary school student.

They weren't wearing monk robes, just ordinary casual clothes. To show they meant no harm, he had already taken off his casual cap.

Well, dressed like this as a monk, I really couldn't tell just by looking at him.

“Two friends, my Buddhist name is Huicqing. I’d like to ask what’s going on here My disciple and I were passing through, intending to seek shelter for the night, but we came across this deserted village. This house in particular seems to be filled with evil energy…”

Old, Old Monk

I widened my eyes. What was this young monk doing calling himself "Old Master"

He probably saw my surprise and smiled, “Lady pilgrim, don’t judge people by their age. Although I am young, I have a high status… sigh, I also want to call myself a poor monk. A poor monk is easier to act cute, especially towards pretty little sisters…”

"Master!" The young monk stomped his foot, seemingly disapproving of his master's unreliability.

This... This is definitely not reliable at all, I feel like I've met a fake monk!

Mu Wanchen said lightly, "If there's nothing else, please leave. This place isn't suitable for idlers."

He pulled me around, but that stubborn old monk Huiqing wouldn't let us go, suddenly blocking our way!

"Hold on, kind sir! The stench of impurity around you is strong. Have you captured some evil spirit or demon"

Mu Wanchen frowned slightly, and I quickly said, "Great Master, why are you meddling in this Since we aren't on the same side, let's just avoid conflict. You don't need to interfere with us so much. There's a pecking order even for exorcising ghosts. Are you trying to take advantage of the situation or simply insert yourself where you don't belong!"

The young monk opened his mouth in an O shape, pulling on his master’s sleeve and saying, “Master, this female donor is so scary.”

"Amitabha Buddha, didn't your teacher tell you that the woman down the mountain is a tiger..."

Oh my gosh.

"Hee hee hee, Mistress don't be nervous. This old monk is the head of the Tong Xuan Hui. I happened to see demons and ghosts wreaking havoc on the road, so naturally I had to lend a hand. Of course, if you two have already taken care of it, this old monk wouldn't interfere. I just want to ask about the reason and understand what kind of karma led to this..."

"Coincidence You two came here to pick mushrooms in this remote wilderness Coincidence, please! You're probably just lost..." I don't believe it.

The little monk's mouth opened into an 'O', and he frantically shook his master's sleeve: "Master, Master, this female donor is so amazing! How did she know you got lost driving— "

"Amitabha, be quiet."
