828: Go After Them!

Go After Them!

Yu Xian was first shocked when she heard Xie Qiao's words, but then she was actually somewhat suppressing her excitement as she said, "I know that there are definitely filthy things in the world. Back then, when I came all the way to the capital city, I really encountered many strange things...0

"So now... Should we think of a way to capture them, or should we look for a master?" Yu Xian hurriedly asked again.

She knew of a master. That master had guided her back then and allowed her to enter the Xie Residence.

Unfortunately, that sage had disappeared in the blink of an eye and they had never met again.

Xie Qiao revealed everything. Only then did she take out the talisman she had with her and cast one out.

Those ghouls were not fools. When they heard Xie Qiao and the others chatting, they immediately ran away.

The talisman seemed to have been blown away by the wind. It rose and fell on the ground, following the direction of the ghouls.

After a few breaths, the pattern on the talisman seemed to have landed on the ghoul's body. Only then did the yellow paper fall to the ground, not moving at all.

With this talisman, she could find out where the ghoul had gone.

It would be fine if she did not see ghouls like them who could do bad things. However, if she saw it and did not care, it would be bad for her.

Since she had cultivated and learned the ability to capture souls, she could not just stand by and watch.

"These ghouls are in a special situation. I'm going to keep a lookout and scout out the way first, then I'll think about how to deal with them," Xie Qiao said in all seriousness.

Sometimes, she would take action herself to deal with such a situation.

However, it was different now. After scouting the way, she would bring Zhao Xuanjing along and nourish his dragon energy. In the future…

It would be easy to make him yield if he became fat.

With his insignificant amount of dragon energy now... Tsk, it would be a little ineffective if she used it to inscribe talismans.

Xie Qiao rubbed her nose with a serious look on her face.

Yu Xian was not willing to let Xie Qiao go alone. She dragged Xie Qiao and refused to let go, insisting on going with her to take a look.

Feng Yingying had never seen anything like ghouls. Even hearing about it gave her goosebumps. However, she braced herself and wanted to see the world.

They went back to ride in the carriage. Xie Qiao held the compass in her hand and "pointed" at the direction of the compass.

They had actually left the city.

They walked along the main road, and they were still moving.

The carriage took nearly four hours to stop.

To be honest, Xie Qiao did not expect it to be so far away.

"With the weather, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it back tonight..." Xie Qiao frowned. This was the trouble of capturing ghouls. There were too many variables. There was no problem for her and Yu Xian to sleep outdoors, but Feng Yingying…

Wen Lancheng would probably be angry.

Feng Yingying was also quite conflicted, but she did not have any intention of blaming Xie Qiao.

She was the one who wanted to follow them.

"It should be fine... With Master Yu around, Lancheng should be more at ease..." Feng Yingying braced herself and said.

It was impossible for her to be at ease.

She had lived for so long and had never spent the night outside except when she was on her way to the capital.

"I'll think of a way to inform them." Xie Qiao thought for a moment. She took out a brush and paper from the bamboo basket and wrote a letter. Then, she tied it to the saddle and patted the back of the horse. "Go back the way I came. Go home to look for my father..." 

"Young Lady Xie, are you sure it can understand you?!" Yu Xian could not help but be suspicious.

"I don't think it can understand the last part, but it shouldn't be a problem for it to go home." Xie Qiao tried her best to be confident.

After walking for two hours, she thought the situation was bad. However, since she had already come, it would be a wasted trip if she returned. Moreover, her talisman also had a time limit with its effect. She would definitely not be able to find these ghouls tomorrow.

She had no choice but to keep going after them.
