151. Chapter 151: Still Charming

Li Yi could not get any useful information from Jin Dafu. Although people in this world knew of the existence of ghosts and gods, they only understood the surface and knew some taboos. In ordinary life, it seemed that they had no connection with ghosts and gods.

Of course, there was another possibility that matters of ghosts and gods had nothing to do with most ordinary people and ordinary martial artists. Perhaps only martial artists of the upper three realms, or the top major forces in this world, knew something.

After all, Li Yi had heard Fan Zhizhou, the city lord of Sanyang City, say that only after martial artists reached the level of Spirit Refining would they be qualified to become Yin soldiers and Yin generals.

And martial artists of the Spirit Refining realm were already very top-notch experts, and there probably wouldn't be many in the entire four seas and eight continents.

However, Li Yi looked at the ghosts floating toward him in the mountain forest and felt that the threat level of these ghosts was very low, posing no threat to him at all, completely different from some weird things he had encountered before.

Perhaps ghosts also had strengths and weaknesses.

Since these ghosts were not strong, it was just right to use them for practice to see if he could explore some means to deal with ghosts. After all, such practice opportunities without danger were very rare. Thinking of this, Li Yi walked into the mountain forest with big strides and walked toward the floating ghosts.

"Jin Dafu, you stay where you are."

"Master, be careful. Ghosts are elusive. Never be curious to get to the bottom of it. If something is wrong, come back immediately. The small one will wait here." Jin Dafu said hurriedly. He was afraid that Li Yi would have an accident. After all, he had just recognized his master, and if he were gone, his life would not be saved. The group of martial artists in the Zhao Zhao Wuguan would probably swallow him alive.

Li Yi ignored him and walked into the mountain forest on his own.

Once he entered the mountain forest, the surrounding temperature dropped a lot, and the air became humid.

His eyes were shining, and he could see ghosts and gods. At this moment, he took the initiative to lean toward the nearest wronged soul.

That ghost seemed to be muddled, its body was white, illusory and transparent, its feet could not be seen clearly, its face could not be seen clearly, it was just a transparent outline of a human shape, completely different from the fierce ghosts seen on Ghost Street before, not possessing danger, and this ghost was even weaker than imagined. The wind blew, and its figure was shaking, as if it were about to dissipate.

Li Yi stood by, and his inspiration did not warn him. He tried to reach out to touch it. His palm slid across the ghost's body, unable to touch it, but he felt a chill in his palm.

"Even evolvers of the Inspiration Realm can only see ghosts and cannot touch them. So under normal circumstances, practitioners cannot deal with ghosts. Let's try other methods."

Li Yi continued to think, and the ghost in front of him seemed to have no intelligence, could not communicate, and had no reaction to his arrival.

"Try eye-witnessing."

Li Yi then used the eye-witnessing technique on this motionless, demented ghost.

However, after the eye-witnessing technique was used, the ghost in front of him suddenly began to twist and struggle, appearing very painful. Afterward, the transparent body began to dissipate rapidly. In just a few seconds, the ghost completely disappeared from his eyes.

"The eye-witnessing technique is useful and can kill ghosts?" Li Yi's expression moved slightly, discovering an important point.

Afterward, he tried to use the eye-witnessing technique on a relatively complete ghost nearby. However, although the ghost was painful and twisted, it did not dissipate, but the transparent body dissipated a lot, becoming increasingly fragile.

"Although the eye-witnessing technique can kill ghosts, the power of the eye-witnessing technique is too weak. It works against people, but it doesn't work much against stronger ghosts... But this is also correct. The eye-witnessing technique is just a technique researched by practitioners of the Spirit Medium Realm. It is not perfect, has not formed a cultivation system, cannot become stronger through cultivation, and can only rely on the strength of the evolver himself. Such an eye-witnessing technique is useless in the battle between practitioners and only has some miraculous effects when facing martial artists of the four seas and eight continents."

Li Yi shook his head, expressing disappointment with the eye-witnessing technique.

However, at this moment.

Perhaps because the eye-witnessing technique just now made the nearby ghosts feel threatened, or perhaps his living breath was too strong, five or six ghosts nearby suddenly began to rush toward him rapidly, and their state seemed somewhat manic, as if they wanted to divide and eat him.

Seeing this scene, Li Yi was not in a hurry and took out a broken bronze knife coin from his clothes.

The knife coin is a mystic object and also a type of weapon. He had heard Wang Jian say before that this thing could deal with fierce ghosts, so today he would try it together.

Holding the knife coin, he threw a punch.

At this moment, a strange thing happened. His palm, which could not touch the ghost before, was blessed with some kind of power after holding the knife coin at this moment, and he actually easily beat a ghost that rushed over to dissipate on the spot with one punch.

"It's really useful." Li Yi was very surprised. He threw a punch again. The knife coin in his hand was just held in the palm and did not have contact with the ghost, but he could touch the ghost.

The second ghost was beaten to dissipate on the spot.

"Mystic objects are truly the nemesis of fierce ghosts. What is the principle? It can make my fist kill ghosts without touching them..." Li Yi continued to ponder. He needed to master these techniques because this would be very helpful to him in the future.

"Could it be the energy field of the mystic object?"

A conjecture appeared in Li Yi's mind.

Mystic objects have their own energy fields, and ghosts might also be a manifestation of special energy. When the two collide, naturally the energy field of the mystic object is more powerful, so the energy of the weak ghost is beaten away, and the ghost is completely extinguished.

This guess seems quite scientific.

"If this is really the case, then practitioners also have the potential to fight against ghosts." Li Yi suddenly remembered that when he first came to the four seas and eight continents, Sister Lin had given him a guidance technique.

The principle of the guidance technique is to guide the cell energy stored in the practitioner's body and gather it in one place.

If Li Yi gathered the cosmic energy in his body on his fist, could he also deal with ghosts?

Once this idea appeared, Li Yi suddenly became somewhat excited.

He immediately held the knife coin, beat all the remaining ghosts to dissipate, and then turned and left the woods. He needed to spend some time practicing the guidance technique and then come back to the woods to find ghosts to verify this point. The current him could not yet guide the cosmic energy in his body out.

But having the method was the greatest harvest of Li Yi's attempt this time.

Seeing his master, Li Yi, walk out of the woods unscathed, Jin Dafu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master, are you okay?" He hurriedly welcomed him.

"Nothing happened. Let's go back. Some ghosts that are not climate cannot even hurt ordinary people. There is nothing to explore."

After Li Yi finished speaking, he glanced at the mountain forest, no longer continued to explore, but turned and rode his steed back to Sanyang City.

Back in the city, Li Yi arranged some trivial matters for Jin Dafu, and then returned to the Li Mansion alone.

Just as he rode to the entrance of the mansion, he saw several carriages parked on the side, and several people waiting, as if they were looking for him. It was just because Li Yi had gone out during this time and was not at home, so they could not enter the mansion and could only wait at the door.

With Li Yi's arrival, the people at the door immediately brightened up and welcomed him.

"The slave has met Young Master Li."

That was a young woman in palace attire, with a charming figure, plump and fascinating, a fox-like face, heavy makeup, and light powder. At this moment, she bowed gracefully, and a shocking curve was outlined in front of her.

"Whoa~!"

Li Yi reined in his horse, glanced at her, but recognized this person: "I saw you at the wharf three days ago. You are the owner of the Flower Pavilion, Flower Hua Sanjie, right?"

"I really didn't expect Young Master Li to remember a small person like me. It really makes me flattered." Flower Hua Sanjie immediately showed a look of surprise.

"No need to flatter me with pretense. What is the matter? Just say it directly. I still have to return to the mansion to practice and don't want to waste time on some boring things." Li Yi said, but he was not interested in Flower Hua Sanjie's daughter-like posture.

Hearing this, the smile on Flower Hua Sanjie's face stiffened slightly, and then she gestured.

Immediately, four young, beautiful, and light-bodied girls walked out of the carriage next to her.

"I heard that Young Master Li built a mansion and established a career in Sanyang City. I couldn't bear to see Young Master Li living alone in such an empty mansion, so I took the liberty to send the four maids I spent a lot of effort to train to Young Master Li. In the future, Young Master Li will have a servant girl to call upon, so he won't be left without care."

Flower Hua Sanjie said with a smile, while her eyes kept turning on Li Yi, as if observing his expression.

Li Yi glanced at them and said: "How old are they?"

"Just turned fourteen, the oldest is fifteen, just at the prime age." Flower Hua Sanjie replied.

Li Yi said: "That is to say, they are still a group of children? I am not interested in taking care of children. You send them back. Don't flatter me in the future. I don't eat this set."

After speaking, he walked toward the mansion without looking back.

Flower Hua Sanjie was stunned. She didn't expect that Li Yi, who was so young, would actually dislike that her four girls were too young?

She hurriedly followed and continued to ask: "Young Master Li, how can such a large mansion have no maids or servants? Young Master Li, you tell me, what kind of maids do you want? I will find them for you, and I guarantee Young Master Li will be satisfied."

Li Yi stopped his steps, then looked at her and said: "I am not interested in maids or servant girls. Instead, I see that Pavilion Owner Flower is still charming. Why don't you enter my mansion and warm my bed for me? How about that?"

"This, this..."

Flower Hua Sanjie was so stunned by Li Yi's words that she didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Haha."

Li Yi laughed, then entered the mansion and left.

Flower Hua Sanjie wanted to flatter him, but didn't expect to be shut out. She was somewhat ashamed and angry for a moment, and stomped her feet on the spot. She was one of the owners of the three major pavilions, an existence at the peak of Blood Refining, one step away from Meridian Cultivation. How could she go to be a bed-warming maid for others? This Li Yi was clearly teasing her.

Wait.

Flower Hua Sanjie's eyes turned suddenly, and she recalled Li Yi's previous words in her mind, but a curve appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Could it be that this Senior Brother of the Zhao Zhao Wuguan really wants me to warm his bed?"

After thinking about it, she felt it was really possible.

She was a proper courtesan by origin. Ten years younger, she was also a beauty. She didn't know how many martial artists were fascinated by her, but now she was nearly thirty, and her youth was passing away.

But even so, the phrase "still charming" was deserved.

However, looking at the mansion with its doors closed, Flower Hua Sanjie could not rush in and ask whether Li Yi's words were intentional or unintentional.

"Go back."

After thinking for a while, Flower Hua Sanjie's thoughts became more and more complicated, and finally, she took her people and left quickly. ===== CHAPTER 151 =====
