Chapter 70: The Destiny

"No shame..."

Gu Xu silently recited the name of this sword in his mind.

Inadvertently, he thought of the scene where the Nine Infant Snake Monster wreaked havoc on the world eight years ago, the lonely tomb of Zheng Yu, the former governor of the Exorcism Department of Yishui County, and the children who were saved by Mr. Zheng...



I have to say that the name "Worthy" fits very well with the hero who sacrificed himself for others regardless of his own life.

"In those days, no matter what Mr. Zheng did, he would never calculate the gains and losses, but would only pursue a clear conscience," Chen Jisheng continued to say, "This is not only the origin of the name of this sword, but also the reason why Mr. Zheng used it in [Wangxiang"]

The original intention found in the realm of Taiwan.

"It was this pure and clear original intention that made Master Zheng's cultivation grow rapidly at that time, which made everyone admire him with admiration."

Gu Xu sighed softly.

Every time he heard the story of former governor Zheng Yu, he would feel admiration and regret from the bottom of his heart.

"Master Chen, what is the original intention you have found?" After thinking for a moment, Gu Xu asked.

"This is a secret," Chen Jisheng smiled, "I can't tell you yet.

"It's just, Gu Xu, I have something to remind you——

"When you advance to the fourth realm, when choosing your natal object, you must keep in mind that the grade of the magic weapon is not important, but the ability to use it smoothly is the most important.

"Many years ago, this 'unashamed' sword was just a piece of crude iron. But after being tempered day after day by Master Zheng in the Dantian, it is now a mid-grade magic weapon."

Gu Xu nodded, keeping his words in mind.

Next to him, Shi Xiaohan had already begun to think about whether he should refine the "Kunwu Sword" on his back into his own destiny after he entered the fourth realm.

…………

After the small talk, it’s time for the mission report.

Gu Xu tapped twice on the jade pendant on the table.

The jade pendant suddenly bloomed with colorful light.

The entire process of him dealing with the split soul of the locust tree demon on Xunliu Street was shown in the form of holographic projection.

This time, Chen Jisheng has been staring at this video attentively, paying attention to every detail in it - he has not been distracted from other official duties like before.

From this image, Chen Jisheng saw the rapid improvement in Gu Xu's strength in just a few days.

You know, last month, no matter what type of ghosts Gu Xu dealt with, he always relied on the "Tai Shang Arctic Demon Suppressing and Ghost Killing Talisman".

Although the "ghost-killing talisman" was modified by him into the second and third generations... it was frighteningly lethal.

But in the final analysis, Gu Xu's means of fighting ghosts are very limited - if one day, the talismans he carries are not enough, then he can only sit back and wait for death.

It's different now.

In addition to the magic of talisman and seal script, Gu Xu also learned the magic of spiritual attack, and even learned a powerful new skill from nowhere.

Even if he doesn't take out the "Ghost Killing Talisman", he can kill the split souls of "Evil Spirit" level ghosts instantly like swatting flies.

"Gu Xu's learning ability is really terrifying!" Chen Jisheng sighed silently in his heart, "I'm afraid there is nothing in this world that he can't learn!"

The art of Talisman and Seal Script is recognized as one of the most difficult spells to learn in Dahuang.

According to everyone's knowledge, the art of attacking with spiritual consciousness can only be mastered after at least advancing to the third level.

But when Gu Xu first entered the second realm, he used these two spells, which were famous for their complexity and variety, to perfection.

If you tell me this kind of thing, no one will believe it.

…………

"Gu Xu, there is one thing I must make clear to you," after watching this video, Chen Jisheng said to Gu Xu with a serious face, "Although in the program of our exorcism department, saving people is the first priority

——But you must also remember that you must do your best when doing tasks, and the most important thing is to save your own life."

"But Mr. Chen, you have always said that Mr. Zheng is our role model, and we must learn from his spirit of putting ourselves first and others behind, and forgetting selfishness..." Shi Xiaohan couldn't help but interject.

"That's what I told outsiders," Chen Jisheng said calmly, "You are our own people. When I talk to you, I have to be honest. There is no need to engage in high-sounding things."

Shi Xiaohan stood there in shock.

She just felt that the governor today was different from the one she knew before.

Gu Xu nodded, agreeing with Chen Jisheng's words.

After all, he is a person who cherishes his life very much and never does anything he is not sure about.

At this moment, a gust of biting wind entered the Yamen lobby through the window.

Chen Jisheng couldn't help but cough a few times.

He immediately took out a handkerchief from his pocket and covered his mouth.

"When I went to Qingzhou Prefecture for business this time, I went to have a few meals with the officials there," Chen Jisheng explained after the coughing gradually subsided, "That restaurant was opened by people from Shu.

"I really don't know why, but Shu people are so fond of damn things like chili peppers. It made me angry for several days, and I haven't recovered yet."

When he heard the words "restaurant" and "chili", Shi Xiaohan's eyes widened immediately.

The boiled meat slices, Mapo tofu, and Kung Pao chicken that she had seen in "Sichuan Food Treasures" suddenly popped into her mind... and she couldn't help but start to swallow quietly.

"Mr. Chen, I would like to take the liberty of asking, where is the specific address of that restaurant owned by people from Shu?" she couldn't help but ask.

"You are such a white-eyed wolf!" Chen Jisheng snorted coldly, "You only care about the address of the restaurant and don't care about the health of your boss!"

"Master Chen, I was wrong!" Shi Xiaohan immediately lowered his head obediently, not daring to mention anything related to the restaurant again.

Then, Chen Jisheng took out another box from the drawer and handed it to Gu Xu's hand.

"Gu Xu, this is the ginseng given to me by Master Qianhu of Qingzhou Prefecture," he said in a calm tone, "it is of no use to me. Take it back and use it to replenish your body!"

"Master Chen, you are too polite——"

"——Don't say polite words in front of me!" Chen Jisheng interrupted Gu Xu sternly, "I asked you to take it back, so just take it back obediently."

"As you command, my lord!"

When the overbearing boss spoke, Gu Xu didn't dare to disobey.

…………

In the following period, Gu Xu, as usual, exchanged tasks for meritorious deeds and meritorious deeds for elixirs.

This mission rewards three hundred meritorious deeds.

Coupled with the 150 merit income earned from drawing the "Ghost Killing Talisman" for the exorcist, it was enough for him to exchange for a new bottle of "Eternal Brightness Pill".

However, at the speed of his cultivation, a bottle of "Eternal Brightness Pill" would probably be consumed in less than two days.

He must take on new tasks and earn more merit.

"Oh, it would be great if there was a task that could allow me to earn thousands of merit points at once!" Gu Xu sighed and sighed.
Chapter completed!
