Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 178 Ghost-Seeking Potion

"Where is it?!" Chuci looked out the window. At this ti, the sunset glow had completely faded away, and the night view of Chunjiang outside the floor-to-ceiling window was dazzling with flickering lights.

Looking around, apart from the slightly dim scenery, not even a single dark cloud could be seen.

The less visible it was, the more uneasy he felt in his heart, always worried that sothing invisible might suddenly appear behind him. So Chuci quickly flashed to Jiang Yuan’s back, cautiously looking around.

Cai Changming’s face instantly turned pale, but fortunately, he was an elder and had a trusted master by his side. Crucially, they were in his own ho, so his first reaction was to turn on all the lights in the room. The bright lights brought him so confidence.

"Do you all want to take a closer look?" Jiang Yuan felt a tingling sensation just listening to the other’s description, but when he saw the real thing, he beca composed. What could be scary about this little creature?

It was a baby ghost, with wrinkled skin in a grayish-white color, a big head, and small limbs, like a gecko clinging to the floor-to-ceiling window. It sniffed around like a little dog.

"Is it scary-looking?" Chuci really wanted to try, but worried about seeing a vicious ghost with a blue face and fangs, he whispered, "Besides being scared, what good does it do to see this thing? You can’t fight it, hide from it..."

His entire body was enveloped in the gentle glow from the bracelet, and the bouncing little child ghost was evidently full of fear and doubt about this power, hesitating to approach.

"It looks okay, not very scary. Using the potion, you can see if you’ve been cheated or not." Jiang Yuan pulled him out from behind. "Now it’s afraid of you. The light from your bracelet is enough to give it a hard ti. Are you sure you don’t want to see it with your own eyes?"

Upon hearing this, Chuci imdiately felt more assured.

Cai Changming looked at those seemingly ordinary beads, almost eager to imprint "want" on his face.

Jiang Yuan took out a small bottle of light green potion and began to pitch it. "Apply it to your eyelids, and the effect lasts for six hours. Besides ghosts, you can also see the true form of your bracelet. Whether you acquire antiques, real estate, or go to unfamiliar places in the future, applying the potion to your eyes lets you see whether it’s clean, avoiding getting deceived and scamd."

"Whoa! Brother, what you said is absolutely right. Even spending money will be clear, preventing being tricked like a fool!" Chuci nodded repeatedly and then reached out to receive two drops of the potion, rubbing them onto his eyelids.

It felt cool with a slight grassy scent. When he once again looked at the floor-to-ceiling window, he couldn’t help but burst out, "Uncle, you have to see it for yourself; my brother Yuan is so amazing!"

"No rush, Director Cai, can you see if there’s sothing in my hand?" Jiang Yuan didn’t imdiately give the potion to the other but casually rubbed a cluster of Heaven-Burning Fla.

Cai Changming shook his head in bewildernt, "No, what’s there?"

"Fire!" Chuci, excited as if discovering a new continent, saw a small cluster of orange flas burning on Jiang Yuan’s right hand in his view. "Uncle, can’t you see the fla on his hand? Wow! Am I dreaming? This feels... too magical, I wouldn’t even dare to dream like this!"

Once Cai Changming used the potion, not only did he see the flas Chuci had ntioned, but he also saw the little child ghost lying on the floor of his living room.

"Master Jiang, I’m convinced, truly. Quickly find a way to deal with this thing. Earlier, it rested on my shoulder and grabbed . It must be this creature!" He was urgent, angry, and scared.

"It’s not difficult to deal with it. The problem is, if we burn it, the clues will be cut off. We have no idea who sent it and for what purpose, leaving us to react passively." Jiang Yuan, encountering this not-so-threatening baby ghost for the first ti, had a bit of an urge to research further.

But capturing it was a challenge. Other than the Heaven-Burning Fla, he had no other ans and was quite lacking in knowledge on this front.

"Solving the problem for good and all would naturally be best. So... should we capture it?" Cai Changming also understood the principle. Temporarily addressing only the symptoms might an the next one sent would be a deadly ghost!

As he turned his head, he saw Chuci, truly enveloped in a gentle light, with the child ghost crawling around the room, actively avoiding him, feeling even more envious.

Contrasting with his own room filled with swords, divine statues, and paintings, which he had paid a lot for, boasting extravagantly at the ti, now opening his Yin Yang Eye and looking around, finding they were all fake!

Jiang Yuan took a piece of straw paper from the Storage Bag and folded it into a small outfit, burning it with Heaven-Burning Fla.

In the line of sight of the three, that paper ash blew by the wind into a set of paper clothes lying on the ground. The child ghost, with hollow eyes seeing nothing, sniffed with his nose following the liked scent of paper ash, crawled in front of the clothes, picked them up with small wrinkled hands like claws, trying them on himself.

He then crafted and folded a paper rattle and burned it. The child ghost dressed in new clothes, holding the rattle, giggled sitting in the living room, playing.

"I heard children ghosts raised are often tragic. Many are killed right after birth, locked up and raised. This child is quite pitiful too." Chuci sighed. As the child ghost started playing and making innocent laughing sounds, he felt it wasn’t quite as scary as imagined.

With the child ghost stabilized and not jumping around, Jiang Yuan could finally take a careful look around.

Faintly visible on the ghost’s body was a "black line" emitting Yin Fiend energy, very similar to what was seen in Chuci’s villa before, just much thinner.

He pondered that this might be the "connection line," and if sothing could be used to sever it, then capture the child ghost filled with evil energy, proper studying could begin.

But how to sever it to disconnect it?

Before Jiang Yuan could think of a thod to act upon, the line suddenly twitched, and the playing ghost beca rigid, threw the rattle from its hand, stared blankly around with hollow eyes, sniffed, and rushed toward Cai Changming at lightning speed, opening its mouth to show full sharp teeth, letting out a piercing scream.

"Oh my!" Cai Changming, not expecting such sudden aggression, dodged swiftly letting the ghost lunge into empty space, genuinely glad for using the potion able to see the little creature, else getting hit would certainly feel unpleasant.

"Bang!"

In a sudden turn of events, Jiang Yuan no longer cared and quickly used Heaven-Burning Fla to ignite the Yin Fiend energy. The line vanished into the night sky, its destination unknown. The Heaven-Burning Fla burned it, imdiately causing a muffled explosion turning into a ball of fire.

Soon, flas burned on the child ghost’s body, lasting less than three seconds, consuming all the Yin Fiend energy. The baby ghost lost its previous fierce intent, no longer focused on attacking the target, sat on the ground, resembling a newborn baby making innocent cooing sounds.

"The entity controlling the ghost is far from here, making it very hard to track." Jiang Yuan quickly rushed to the floor-to-ceiling window to look out, the other end of the Heaven-Burning Fla hidden in the night, apparently going in the northwest direction of the community.

"Thanks to Master Jiang, otherwise my life would have ended!" Cai Changming felt a rush of fear, despite only being a few brief seconds, but rembering the ghost rushing at him, suddenly recalled the bizarre death of Jia Zongliang, "What should we do now?"

Jiang Yuan approached and picked up the little ghost, lightweight with no substance, but the white, chubby baby laughed gurgling at him, waving its tiny hands and feet adorably.

"The baby ghost itself is innocent; it’s the one exploiting his power that’s evil. Now the Yin Fiend energy is gone, I need to find a way to send it to reincarnation." He took out the Jade Peaceful Charm from the Storage Bag. "This is an amulet I prepared for my family. If Director Cai needs it, I can let you have it first."

The Peaceful Charm, imbued with three thousand Faith Value, emitted a bright but not dazzling light, imdiately overshadowing Chuci’s bracelet upon its appearance.
