“Amitabha. Madam, your benevolence is what is advocated in Buddhism. Please keep this rune for your sake!”

Then, the old monk in white withdrew his gaze and chanted another line from Buddhist scripture.

He then took out a rune that was covered in golden lacquer from his backpack and gave it to Nie Xiaoqian.

“This is…”

Nie Xiaoqian detected the stats of the item and was slightly surprised.

[Buddha Light Rune]

[Level: Extraordinary Rank-9]

[Rarity: Excellent]

[Description: A rune written by a senior Buddhist. It contains a Shining Buddha Light spell that can get rid of unholy creatures.]

It turned out to be an Extraordinary Rank-9 rune. Although it was expendable, it was undoubtedly very precious.

It could destroy the unholy creatures on a large scale. For Dragon City which might declare war on the yakshas, it was much more valuable than the gold it gave away on this day.

However, why would the old monk give her such a rune?

What the old monk said next quite shocked Nie Xiaoqian.

“Madam, you’re haunted by ghostly air!”

Technically speaking, she used to be a ghost in the past. However, she had been given a body by a Soul of Civilization, so she was no different from a real human. Even so, the old monk could see the ghostly air in her?

Could this old monk be Legendary or even a real Buddha?

“Madam, you’re very strong and the tiny bit of ghostly air cannot corrupt you.

“However, the mortals inside the restaurant might not be able to take it. If you use this rune, you can remove the ghostly air and expel the evils…”

What the old monk said made her realize that he wasn’t talking about her.

Also, the old monk had seen through her level!

Considering the Extraordinary Rank-9 rune, the old monk was undoubtedly a Transcendent person!

“If you run into any trouble that you can’t take care of, you can seek my help in the Lanruo Temple five kilometers away from the city. Amitabha!”

The old monk chanted a line of Buddhist scripture.

After that, he left with the bowl and the staff in his hands.

“Lanruo Temple… Wait a moment!”

Hearing what the old monk said, Nie Xiaoqian intended to say something else.

However, the old monk in white had reached the end of the street after a single step.

Obviously, not only had he cultivated the Heavenly Eyes Technique, but he had also picked up the Free Will Technique!

“Huh? That’s…”

However, when he took two steps and already walked out of Guobei County, the old monk in white suddenly turned around with a surprised look on his face.

It was because he saw a Heavenly Dragon floating somewhere above the third floor of the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant, releasing the Buddhist Power that was invisible to the naked eye but had covered half of the city!

“This is… a protective Heavenly Dragon with a shining Buddha Light! So, an expert Arhat is here. He must’ve already detected the hidden evils…

“Amitabha. It seems that what I did was redundant!”

…

“A Transcendent monk in white?”

On the third floor of the restaurant, Ji Ye paused the fusion and considered the information that Nie Xiaoqian sent back in the communication channel.

“He must be the old monk named ‘Bai Yun’!”

Judging from the appearance of Zhiqiu Yiye, the Guobei County on the Land of Inheritance must’ve come from A Chinese Ghost Story III.

Bai Yun was the only monk that could be called Transcendent in it. He was strong enough to have a head-on clash with Granny Tree Demon.

If it hadn’t been for the mistake of his unreliable students, he could’ve probably eliminated the Thousand-Year Tree Demon on his own!

When such a man said that there was ghostly air in the restaurant, it was definitely believable.

“But where is the ghostly air from? The ghosts in the Lanruo Temple?

“Wait a moment, the yakshas are ghosts too!”

Ji Ye suddenly thought of something.

Some yakshas might have snuck to the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant!

What did they want to do?

…

“Hey, we’re out of wine! Give us more!”

At the same time, a banquet was starting in the hall of the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant.

The newly-hired guards and the men from the county office, altogether almost two hundred guests, crammed the restaurant. They were all eager for the wine.

“The wine is here!”

With the help of two waiters, the boss of the restaurant carried two large barrels of wine to them.

Inside the barrels were green-colored wine. The fragrance that it released pervaded the hall.

“Wow, what’s this wine? Why is it green?!”

“This is the best Green Ant Wine!” the boss of the restaurant explained.

The Green Ant Wine was a type of rice wine that would have a layer of green bubbles if it wasn’t filtered. The great poet Bai Juyi even wrote a poem to compliment it.

“What? Rice wine? That’s boring!”

“No, we demand hard liquor!”

Hearing that it was rice wine, the guests all seethed.

“Sir, please forgive us, but there are too many guests tonight and our hard liquor is already sold out. The Green Ant Wine here is actually purchased from somewhere else.

“Besides, as the guards of the chamber of commerce, you shouldn’t get drunk, should you?”

The boss quickly apologized with an adulating smile.

“Humph. What taste does the rice wine have? We might as well drink water… Wow, it smells delicious!”

A man who wore several rings on his hand and had his mace next to him grunted angrily.

However, when the waiter gave him a bowl full of the Green Ant Wine, he couldn’t help but sniff heavily as the wine smelled very delicious.

“Wait… Something isn’t right!”

However, when the man raised the bowl and was about to pour the Green Ant Wine into his mouth.

“Don’t drink it!”

Zhiqiu Yiye, who was chewing a large chicken leg with oil all over his lips, detected something.

Clang!

He roared and drew his giant sword, knocking off the bowl in the man’s hand to the ground.

“A*shole, what are you doing?”

The Green Ant Wine that he was about to enjoy spilled on the ground, and he nearly lost his fingers. So, the man glared at Zhiqiu Yiye angrily.

He reached for the mace near the table.

“Something is wrong with the wine!”

Zhiqiu Yiye put on a solemn expression for the first time ever.

“Huh? Is there a problem?”

The man was stunned.

“Look, the wine is bubbling on the floor. Is there poison in the wine?”

Another man quickly put down the bowl and looked at the Green Ant Wine on the ground, only to see a lot of bubbles!

“Nonsense. How can rice wine not bubble when it flows on the floor?”

However, everyone simply rolled their eyes at him.

It was perfectly normal for rice wine or beer to bubble when they spilled on the floor.

“Don’t make random accusations. How can the wine be poisoned?”

“Just ask Lord Guo if you don’t believe me. I just borrowed the wine from the county office. How can the wine that was brewed by the county magistrate himself be poisoned?”

Seeing the situation, the skinny boss of the restaurant got anxious.

There was actually more wine in his restaurant. However, since food was in demand, he would rather keep it and sell it for a higher price than present it at this moment.

Since Ji Ye asked him to borrow food from the county office, and he happened to see the newly-brewed wine in the backyard of the county office, he simply borrowed the wine too.

How could the wine in the county office be poisoned?

After all, a lot of people from the county office were eating here.

“The wine is indeed from my place…”

The county magistrate, who sat on the second floor with Wuxin and some other people, glared at the boss in embarrassment.

It was because brewing the rice wine required a lot of food. When food was in demand in Guobei County, the rice wine that he brewed could give others an impression that he was an unqualified leader.

“Manager Wuxin, what’s your subordinate doing? He should be punished for the fuss he caused…” the county magistrate grimly said to Wuxin who was at the same table.

However, before Wuxin could say anything, Zhiqiu Yiye had already burst into an outrage.

“Hey, do none of you believe me?

“Fine, I’ll just show it to you.”

He took off the Kunlun Magic Scroll that was hanging from his waist.

He then stared at the barrels of wine for a moment before casting a spell at them.

“Ma mi ma mi hong, reveal yourself!”

Immediately, the green bubbles on the surface of the fragrant wine turned into wriggling green worms that vaguely formed the shape of a ghost face!
