"Thank you for your gift, Senior Horse-Face. Don't worry, Senior. I will do my best to help you get rid of the ghost threat in Jianye City. "Shen Luo put away the Ghost Howl Bracelet and bowed to Horse-Face to express his gratitude.
The Soul Hooking Horse Face revealed a satisfied expression. It took out an item from its bosom and threw it over.
Shen Luo hastily caught it, and found that it was a small black card. It seemed to be made of some kind of bone. A circle of bone-white magic characters was engraved on it, and it emitted a spiritual radiance. It gave off a mysterious feeling.
"This is a communication card. Keep it with you. I will use it to contact you at any time," Horse-Face said.
Shen Luo looked curious. He had seen such a communication item in the records of Mount Fangcun. It could be used to communicate across long distances.
However, he had never seen such a mystical item in the Bai family or the Temple of Spring and Autumn. He didn't expect Horse-Face to be able to take one out so casually.
"How do I control this?" Shen Luo asked as he played with the black card.
"You don't need to worry about how to control it. Just receive my message," Horse-Face said.
Shen Luo was a little disappointed, but he still nodded in agreement.
"Also, don't let outsiders know about our relationship. It won't do you any good. After you help me get rid of the ghost threat in Jianye City, I will give you another opportunity, "Horse-Face said solemnly.
"Don't worry, Senior. I will act appropriately." Shen Luo was delighted. He promised again.
The Soul Hooking Horse-Face didn't say anything further, and its figure flashed before it vanished into thin air.
Shen Luo looked at the communication card again and put it away. He didn't stay any longer. He flew toward Jianye City and soon arrived near the city.
Ever since Jianye City was plagued by ghost attacks, the city gates would be closed once the sun set. No one was allowed to enter or leave. There was also a curfew on the streets.
However, a mere high wall naturally could not stop Shen Luo. He used the Water Manipulation Technique to condense a water rope. With a slight push, he easily crossed the wall and entered Jianye City, returning to the Bai Family.
He thought that the Bai family members were already asleep. However, to his surprise, the accounting room was brightly lit. Many guests had come to submit their missions.
However, at this moment, the expressions on their faces were all different. A small half of them actually looked depressed, and some of them even had injuries on their bodies. It seemed that the mission did not go smoothly.
At a glance, Shen Luo saw the bald man, Chu Li, who had ridiculed him before. His face was green and red, and his expression was gloomy like water. He looked extremely embarrassed.
"Fellow Chu, didn't you go to Youshui Village's mission? Are the ghosts there so powerful? How could they hurt you like this? "The young man surnamed Feng closed his folding fan and asked.
"Feng Ling, don't mention it. I was tricked by Tie Shan from the Lin family. He attacked me with the Heavy Mountain Talisman when I was fighting with the hostile ghost. Not only did he steal the mission, but he also hurt me." Chu Li glanced at him and said angrily.
"Don't be angry. I also met the Lin family today. However, I didn't let them take advantage of me. Not only did I steal their mission, but I also played with them. I've avenged you." Feng Ling opened his folding fan and smiled.
Chu Li didn't feel better after hearing this. Instead, he was even angrier.
Feng Ling's words were obviously to suppress him and elevate him. He didn't have any good intentions.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd. A beautiful woman in red walked in alone from the outside. She looked travel-worn. She was Xie Yuxin.
The people in front hurriedly made way for her. Xie Yuxin walked slowly to the mission table and waved her hand.
"Thud!" A broken grayish-white jade pendant was thrown on the table. A shocking Yin Qi was emitted from it.
Shen Luo, who was standing in the distance, narrowed his eyes. The Yin Qi on the grayish-white jade pendant was still above his broken red sleeve.
"The malicious ghost in the West City Memorial Hall has been killed." Xie Yuxin said calmly.
"It's said that the ghost in the East City Memorial Hall has almost reached the Fasting Stage. Look at her calm expression and her clothes are not messy. I guess she killed it easily."
"No wonder she's the number one guest elder of the Bai family. Amazing, amazing …"
"If I'm not wrong, this is the second time she's come to submit the mission today."
The nearby Guest Chamberlains discussed animatedly, full of praises.
Shen Luo listened to the words of the people around him. He had a deeper understanding of Xie Yuxin's strength.
"Good, good! Please wait a moment. I'll handle it immediately. "The two Bai family stewards behind the table said respectfully. One of them took out the mission book and handed in the mission.
The other person quickly walked into the inner hall. He quickly came back with a jade box and handed it to Xie Yuxin.
"Guest Elder Xie, this is the reward for this mission. Please accept it."
Xie Yuxin opened the jade box and looked inside. Her cold face revealed a smile. It was as if a ten thousand year old iceberg had melted. Everyone was stunned.
However, in the next moment, her expression returned to its usual indifference. She put away the jade box and turned around to continue looking at the mission list. It seemed like she wanted to continue to accept new missions.
At this time, Shen Luo no longer stood in the distance and walked over.
When Chu Li saw Shen Luo coming over, he immediately became spirited. He could finally get back the face he lost.
"Hey, isn't this great guest elder Shen? I remember you took the mission in Red Leaf Town. How come you're back so soon? "Chu Li immediately shouted.
"Hey, it's really Shen Luo. He came back so quickly."
"He must have failed the mission. I heard that the three Ouyang brothers of the Lin family also went to Red Leaf Town to do the mission. Those three guys are not easy to deal with."
"Serves him right. With his strength, he actually went to challenge the mission in Red Leaf Town. He's lucky to be able to come back alive." The people nearby also saw Shen Luo. They were talking about him, but most of them were sarcastic.
"Shen Luo, do you know the difference between Ye City and the countryside where you used to live? Don't think that you can survive in the Bai family by currying favor with the two young masters. "Chu Li looked at Shen Luo. He finally found some confidence and said with a sneer.
Shen Luo did not pay attention to him. He walked a few steps to the mission table and took out the tattered sleeve from his bosom.
"The mission in Red Leaf Town was completed. This is the proof." He said indifferently.
When these words came out, the surrounding suddenly became quiet. Everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Luo and the red sleeve.
Chu Li stood on the spot. The sarcastic expression on his face froze. He looked quite ridiculous.
Xie Yuxin, who was looking at the mission on the side, noticed the commotion and also looked over.
The two Bai family stewards behind the table were stunned for a moment. They immediately checked the sleeve.
"It seems to be the Yin energy core of a ghost. However, we still need to confirm whether or not it is the one in Red Leaf Town." One of the stewards raised his head and said.
"You still need to confirm? Why didn't you confirm the mission submitted by guest elder Xie and directly gave the reward? "Shen Luo could not help but frown and ask.
