Chapter 009: Old Ghost

What are you doing? As I witnessed the energy of the fighting spirit flying from my palm collide with the opposite cliff, the rocks on the cliff began to tremble, as if the entire area was caught in a chaotic shudder. The intensity of the fighting spirit was comparable to that unleashed during the fierce battle between the blue-clad figure and the witch. However, Chen Mu quickly regained control of his arm.

Chen Mu remained silent

Chen Mugang was about to respond when he noticed his master approaching his room. He immediately lowered his head and called out, "Master!"

Hey! You little brat, what are you? I am your ancestor!

Outside the window, the cold wind blew beneath the cliff, and Chen Mu awakened for a moment. His tightly clenched fists slowly relaxed, and his gaze revealed an unprecedented determination as he said: "I have no right to interfere with others' freedom of speech, but from today onwards, I absolutely do not wish to endure such humiliation again! Absolutely!"

The blind man saw Chen Mu behaving well, nodded slightly, and turned to leave. However, he seemed to remember something and pointed towards the front yard, calmly saying: "By the way, is that little dinosaur the one you brought back?"

"This is truly outrageous!" After being humiliated by Qingyi this time, Chen Mu lost all desire to work. He hurried home, not even greeting his two masters, and tightly shut the door. Then he opened the back window, gazing at the cliff below, striving to calm his mind. However, no matter how much he tried to persuade himself not to be angry over such matters, he could not suppress the lingering fury within him. The faces of those despicable people—Qingyi, Zhao Xing, Peng Hai—floated in his mind. Chen Mu struck out suddenly, his fist hitting the window bars with force: "What a Qingyi, what a Dongzhou Continent!" Looking at the cliff below from the back window, he made an effort to calm his mind, yet despite his attempts to convince himself not to be angry over such matters, he could not contain the anger that had not dissipated within him. The faces of those despicable people—Qingyi, Zhao Xing, Peng Hai—floated in his mind. Chen Mu struck out suddenly, his fist hitting the window bars with force: "What a Qingyi, what a Dongzhou Continent!"

Chen Mu secretly cursed, wondering why this little monster had returned at this time, and dared not lie, saying: "I brought it back from the Misty Forest."

Haha, you little rascal, on what basis do you say no

"Rest assured, the cripple is not here now." The blind man shook his head, as if he could see the scenery outside the window, then turned back to gaze at the spot that had just been struck by the fighting spirit released from the mysterious person within Chen Mu's body.

You... you... are truly unreasonable. Forget it, forget it. I am too lazy to argue with you!" Just as he was about to disappear, that old ghost suddenly spoke again in Chen Mu's ear, softly saying: "By the way, I hope you keep today's events a secret, unless you want to be mistaken for a madman!"

Upon hearing these words, Chen Mu suddenly stood up, scanning every corner of the room, and asked warily, "What is it?"

I do not know which powerful figure just passed by, the old cripple went to watch the commotion, however..." The blind man continued walking, his voice growing fainter. When he passed by the little monster, he paused for a moment and muttered, "From my observation, that powerful figure should have left long ago.

"Ancestral spirits?" Chen Mu's expression darkened as he shouted, "Where do these ancestral spirits come from? Where exactly are you?"

The disciple is unaware

On this continent, without strength, one is even inferior to dog feces

The old ghost, being inherently arrogant and self-satisfied, was infuriated upon hearing Chen Mu's cold indifference and disdain. He immediately shouted in anger, "You little brat, are you seeking death? I kindly took the time to teach you, and yet you dare to act this way. Truly incorrigible. Hmph!" Seeing that Chen Mu remained unmoved, the old ghost prodded again, "Ah, some people, lacking in strength themselves, can still bully even the most useless of individuals. I really wonder what they feel about that!"

It seemed as if he could sense Chen Mu's determination, and the blind man continued, "Starting tomorrow, we will practice more intensively."

Hmm? Chen Mu said ambiguously: "How is that possible? The master is just venting outside because the disciple encountered some trouble on his own!"

After hearing this loud shout, the gathered fighting spirit in his hands instantly vanished. Chen Mu calmly replied, "If it is you who will control my body, then I am sorry! I have never been accustomed to entrusting my fate to others"

Inside the body? Chen Mu was taken aback, and suddenly thought of the seals on his body. He immediately tore his clothes, revealing the strange symbols. He saw that there seemed to be flowing light wandering all around, far more unusual brilliance than in the past, and at this moment, the radiance appeared so dazzling in Chen Mu's eyes

Do not search any longer, I am within you, how can you possibly find me

Do you really have some skills

Listening to the words of the blind man, Chen Mu was taken aback, not understanding the situation. However, his gaze swept across the room of his second master, the cripple, and he nearly jumped up. He shouted loudly at the little monster at the doorway: "You little monster, what have you put in the second master's room? Hurry up and take it out!" Chen Mu certainly knew that the second master despised magical beasts. If it weren't for the master's reminder about the little monster causing trouble in the second master's room, it would have led to a disaster.

Uh?

Hearing the blind man's reprimand, Chen Mu did not dare to retort. The image of the woman in blue flashed in his mind as he gritted his teeth and nodded slightly

The very spot indicated by the finger is that mysterious little monster, holding food that is disproportionate in its hands

Upon hearing this, Chen Mu's body trembled slightly, but he suppressed his impulse and coldly replied: "That is still better than someone who doesn't even have a physical body"

Yes, Master

Old Ghost Strikes Again: "You little brat, I am taking you as my disciple, what are you still thinking about?" Seeing that Chen Mu remained silent, Old Ghost realized he had been abrupt and sensed a hint of Chen Mu's distrust. He immediately laughed confidently and said, "Hehe, how many people wanted to inherit my skills back in the day, yet none were qualified. If it weren't for the familiar scent that awakened me today, and seeing that your pulse aligns perfectly with mine, do you think you would have the fortune to become my disciple?"

"Don't believe it?" With this question from Chen Mu, it seemed to touch the old ghost's reverse scale. Immediately, the old man gathered his spirit within Chen Mu's body, causing Chen Mu to involuntarily be driven by the elder. His arm trembled, and a small surge of fighting spirit suddenly erupted with a strange brilliance. He shouted loudly, "Then let me show you something!"

The blind man did not rush to converse with Chen Mu; he merely explored for a while and, after finding nothing, spoke: "How did I hear a sound just now?"

Hey, you little brat, what are you doing, are you trying to get yourself killed

"What’s wrong, you little brat? You’ve seen the hand seals, haven’t you?" The mysterious voice continued, laughing: "You are a dual spirit of fighting souls, so your fighting energy cannot remain within you. However, you are precisely the best heir of my Soul Clan. If you wish to take me as your master, then this old man’s unique skills will have a chance to be passed on!"

Do you know what it is

The blind man did not display the anger that Chen Mu had imagined, and said calmly: "Then let’s discipline him well"

Is that so? Although the blind cannot see, they are often more sensitive than anyone else. However, after a brief investigation and not noticing anything unusual, he said lightly: "Rather than venting like this, it would be better to practice more; otherwise, you will be bullied for a lifetime. Do you remember what I said?"
