Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 46: Chapter 32: Citywide Nightmare?

Yes.

The director has now imagined that the Guhuo bird is a high-tier ghost capable of hiding its tracks and deceiving cultivators of the Yue Realm!

It’s not just creepy, it’s downright terrifying!

The more he thinks about it, the more he ponders, the more the director is at his wits’ end: ”What’s really going on here?”

”Come, I need to check your conditions.”

The director walks over to Xu Ran and the other children, checking their pulse one by one.

”Xu Ran, you always carry this origami toy with you?”

Mom: ”Yes, director, Xu Ran has loved playing with origami since he was one year old.”

The director flips the origami back and forth, then returns it to Xu Ran just as it was.

As for this.

Xu Ran feels calm inside; his spirit communication paper contains extremely high-tier energy and is blessed with the Body Enveloping Mist. As long as he doesn’t use them, they’re just ”ordinary paper,” and the director won’t notice any tricks inside.

The director, absent-minded: ”It’s folded pretty well.”

Xu Ran smiles brightly: ”Thank you, director, for the compliment.”

”Guards and parents, come over and let me check too.”

However, after finishing all the checks, the director furrows his brows, sweating even more profusely.

Thankfully, not long after.

The director’s backup, ”Lu Ya,” arrives at the scene. She’s a brown-haired noblewoman with naturally curly hair, dressed elegantly. Her thin eyebrows are like smoke, and although there are wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, her youthful charm is still evident.

”Brother Cheng, what’s going on? Your voice is shaking.”

The director sighs: ”I don’t know either. Obviously, there’s a ghostly creature being born here. I got to the scene within a dozen seconds, but it suddenly vanished without a trace, not leaving even a hint of ghostly aura.”

”It might be a high-tier ghostly creature!!”

The director’s expression is frightful.

Lu Ya: ”Did you mistake something? The birth process of a high-tier ghostly creature isn’t so trivial.”

The director wipes sweat: ”But the fact happened; such a large amount of ghostly aura just dissipated like smoke...”

”Sis, you’re naturally able to restrain ghostly creatures, quickly check the children’s physical conditions and make sure they’re not possessed by ghosts.”

Lu Ya: ”Alright.”

With a promise, she raises her hand and releases a brilliant spell, like an inverted golden glass bowl, enveloping everyone including the director.

In just over ten seconds, the aura of light inside the bowl becomes increasingly dense and brilliant, even forming golden mist that lingers within.

Everyone’s breathing allows them to absorb the comfortably cool light aura.

In such a dense atmosphere of light, no matter how high-tier or hidden, ghostly creatures will be forced to reveal their weaknesses.

But everyone feels no pain or discomfort, instead a sense of comfort.

The director breathes a sigh of relief.

Light Element Root Bone can release the purest energy that can heal and purify, with exceptional results in eliminating Resentful God and ghost pollution.

Even ghostly creatures from the Yue Realm, touched by such a dense light aura, would instinctively avoid it and couldn’t possibly swim freely in it.

Lu Ya looks at the director: ”I’ve placed a purification bracelet on their hands that lasts for three days. If ghostly creatures try to disturb them, the bracelet will emerge to burn them. It gives you five seconds, which is more than enough time for you to arrive and slay the ghostly creatures!”

”Is it assured now?”

”Yes, yes, Sis is indeed capable!”

The director wipes off the sweat from his forehead.

”But I still can’t figure out why the ghostly creature at the bottom of the lake suddenly disappeared?”

Lu Ya spreads her hands: ”That’s the specialty of the investigation corps, it needs to be handed over to them. I can only help you purify the lake water!”

Saying so.

A ray of light technique lands on the lake water, rippling outward.

”The lake water does not have the aura of ghostly creatures, and even the pollution level of Ghost Star is very, very low, making it impossible for ghostly creatures to be born, let alone high-tier ones.”

The director’s brows are tightly knitted: ”...But—we four cultivators of the Yue Realm all sensed a ghostly creature being nurtured at the bottom of the lake, surely not all four of us made a mistake?”

Lu Ya raises her thin eyebrows slightly: ”Is it that mysterious?”

The director helplessly waves his hand: ”It is... Ah, never mind, let’s set this aside for now, we should meet up with the others. We need to purify the other children immediately. The priority is ensuring the children’s safety.”

Lu Ya rubs her brow: ”Brother, the cost needs to go up.”

The director looks luxurious: ”Increase! Increase heavily! Compared to the safety of the children in my school, mere compensation is insignificant!”

Lu Ya nods: ”Then I’m assured.”

Thus, a group of people arrives at the teaching activity center.

...

The teaching activity center is crowded; peers and newcomers gather in formations under their parents’ company.

The guards are solemnly vigilant.

Seeing the director appear, Li Qinghong and two other mentors walk over: ”Director, we heard a ghostly creature disappeared? What happened?”

The director is embarrassed: ”I don’t know, logically, I reached the bottom of the lake in just eighteen seconds, it couldn’t have escaped so quickly. Unless all four of us detected wrong?”

The expressions of the two mentors simultaneously become serious: ”Four people making the same mistake? How could that be? It has to be hiding!”

This statement leaves the director anxious: ”But I’ve carefully scanned within a 2,000-meter radius and found no trace. Even if it could perfectly merge with the lake water, Lu Ya’s purification spell would burn it so it couldn’t hide.”
