Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation Chapter 112

This Shaman wasn't that famous, yet he posed as a genuine skilled traditional follower. He scowled when he saw an immature youth speak some nonsense, "Who are you?"
"You talk quite big."
Although he wasn't that famous, his ancestors were quite remarkable. His family name was Zhang. He was from the Water and Fire Dao Mountain. His ancestor was the famous Heavenly Master, Zhang Tianling.
So he also had his pride.
"This is Mr. Jiang…"
The Shaman snorted. He felt that a person of such an age as Jiang Xiu should use his sect's name instead of calling himself 'Mister' shamelessly. He replied in a flat tone, "Never heard of him…"
Not only him, even the man to the side and Sister Li had never heard of this name. After all, they weren't from Jiang City. In fact, outside the underworld of Jiang City, the others still didn't know about him as he had risen up just recently.
Only, the martial arts community might have heard his name.
"But, Mr. Jiang is…"
Wu Rong saw how much disdain this Shaman felt towards Jiang Xiu and wished to tell him what kind of existence he was, but Jiang Xiu prevented him by shaking his head.
"Master Zhang, what should we do now?"
"Please think of something quickly. Isn't Xiaoxiao still inside?"
Wu Rong was stunned, "Lady Xiao is inside the woods?"
Sister Li didn't want to admit it. But since the matter had come this far, she had to lay the facts bare. "Yes, our Xiaoxiao has become marked by some demonic thing. After she became famous, strange incidents kept increasing. First, she created a hideous household shrine. So we prohibited her from it, but she started to sleepwalk frequently then head towards the balcony and kowtow to the world while saying some obscure words."
"We invited a Shaman over, but she got kidnapped."
"After that, she got possessed."
Sister Li's brows locked up. The man also wore a face full of worry. He was Xiao Xuetong's boss. That brat was like a money tree for him and a perfectly good girl. He had no idea why such a thing happened.
Shaman Zhang asked, "Were the days when Lady Xiao sleepwalk to the balcony and kowtow full moon nights?"
"That's…" Sister Li muttered to herself, "Though I didn't notice it much, now that you mention it, it seems like they were."
"This is called Worshipping the Moon… it's ancient sorcery."
Jiang Xiu couldn't help but want to laugh after hearing this.
Although he didn't laugh, Shaman Zhang could make out his smile from his face. He felt quite unwell. What's that smile? Do you doubt this Shaman's words?
"This whatever Mister, what's your opinion?"
Jiang Xiu knew that Xiao Xuetong was being used as a medium to collect divine faith by the Evil God. Of course, it wasn't something like 'Worshipping the Moon', let alone 'Worshipping the Moon' wasn't even sorcery.
According to what Sister Li had explained, Xiao Xuetong had set up a hideous shrine. Jiang Xiu doubted that this was the beginning of everything. However, this shrine was removed by Sister Li and the others as it looked like a demonic thing, so the Evil God used a sacrificial art to gather faith from time to time.
"It's a sacrificial art to gather divine faith."
Shaman Zhang retorted, "Utter rubbish. You're so young. Do you even know what's a sacrificial art or divine faith? Those are all arts to serve Gods, and mysteries of the world. Lady Xiao is just possessed right now, and the other party has definitely used sorcery to achieve this."
Jiang Xiu shook his head lightly.
"Boss Wang, this Shaman has always operated alone while dealing with demons and monsters. I never cooperate with others because some of them try to steal the credit and even are more of a hindrance than a help sometimes."
"If someone else wants to deal with it, this Shaman shall say goodbye right now."
Boss Wang felt that this made sense. The brat was still inside the woods right now, and they didn't know anything about the circumstances inside. If this almighty person left no one could rescue Xiao Xuetong. He didn't believe they or the police or that ignorant youth could do anything.
"Please wait, Master Zhang!"
He hurried to shout towards Master Zhang then turned to Jiang Xiu, "This mister, this matter is unrelated to you. Please don't meddle in it unnecessarily. I request that you leave immediately."
Wu Rong retorted to him, "This is a free region, so Mister Wang has no right to send us away. Let alone, Mr. Jiang is here to help the police locate Lady Xiao."
Shaman Zhang snorted, "You police can catch thieves but can you get rid of demons and monsters?"
"Ignorant people!"
Boss Wang said, "This police officer, you have already seen how it is. This matter isn't within the capabilities of the police. I'll have to trouble you to match accordingly. If we delay Master Zhang from saving the person, you won't be able to take responsibility if something happens to Xiaoxiao."
Wu Rong replied, "Protecting the city residents is our responsibility."
Wu Rong naturally wouldn't compromise unless Mr. Jiang commanded him to.
Boss Wang furrowed his brows, "Police officer, I'm good friends with your Jiang City's police department's chief, Chief Fang. You'll have to obediently go away with just a single call from me so don't bring trouble to yourself."
Wu Rong asked, "By Chief Fang, do you mean Fang Congyi?"
"Yep!"
"Too bad then. Chief Fang is no longer the Bureau Chief as he has been sacked already." Wu Rong said in a ridiculing tone, "Try calling him if you don't believe me."
Boss Wang had a rich experience in life so he naturally knew Wu Rong wouldn't joke about such a thing regarding his boss. He felt quite awkward. Since he couldn't make them leave, he didn't have any way left to make Shaman Zhang act.
At this moment, the savage howl came out of the woods again. The people standing outside were frightened as they looked towards the dark woods in alarm.
A sinister aura soared up in the sky above the woods, faintly taking the shape of a giant snake.
This really scared them.
"OH MY GOD!"
Sister Li screamed while covering her mouth.
"Do you see that?! Do you?!" Shaman Zhang made a solemn face, "How can there be such a big Yin Snake in this world? Your words were just rubbish in the end. Boss Wang, do you believe this Shaman's words now?"
Boss Wang was frightened from this scene, so he nodded mechanically.
That snake's spirit body was around 20 m long. It really gave goosebumps to anyone who witnessed such a thing under the pitch-black night sky.
"Master Zhang, you must save Xiaoxiao!"
He couldn't allow this monster to eat his money tree.
Wu Rong was also left stupefied.
It's really a monster.
Jiang Xiu, however, shook his head, "Today is the day of Nine Yin. It's just the baleful manifestation of the Yin Snake…" In other words, it was nothing other than a collection of baleful energy and no different than a cloud in the sky which was shaped as a creature. It didn't possess any destructive abilities.
"Total crap."
"Do you want to get us killed?"
Shaman Zhang continued, "Boss Wang. If these useless people keep babbling nonsense, this Shaman will immediately take leave from here."
"Don't! Please…"
Boss Wang was alarmed as he had invited Shaman Zhang with great difficulty. He glowered at Jiang Xiu and Wu Rong and spoke in an impolite tone, "Tell your price, how much do you want to leave from here?"
This was a big joke.
Boss Wang continued, "100,000! I'll give 100,000 to you. Take it and leave immediately."
This was indeed a high amount. Boss Wang was ready to smash 100,000 to make them leave.
Jiang Xiu looked at him indifferently.
"Is it not enough? 500,000 then!"
Wu Rong revealed a troubled expression. In the year 2008, one could buy 2 houses with 500,000.
"1 million then. Let's make it final."
Jiang Xiu smiled coolly then shook his head, "It's useless for you to offer money to this Deity as that's something this Deity doesn't lack at all. The thing which this Deity needs the most is right before you…" Saying so, he went forward.
"The most significant difference between a Yin Snake's baleful manifestation is the attribute…"
He had already moved forward while saying this.
"What does he want to do?"
"Does he want to die?"
Such a giant snake demon is floating in the sky. Are you not scared of getting swallowed?
They saw Jiang Xiu take out a talisman and throw it towards the sky. The glyphs on the talisman turned into flames and burnt it. An unstoppable, powerful purifying force engulfed the sky like a gale.
"This is…"
Jiang Xiu stated indifferently, "Purification Talisman."
The flaming glyphs floated towards the snake demon over the woods, and just like how the Sun drove the darkness away, as soon as the light from the flames fell on the snake demon, it disappeared.
There were no tracks of the snake demon after the talisman had burnt off entirely.
And a Purification Talisman could only be used for exorcising spirits. It couldn't do anything to a snake demon.
Shaman Zhang was left dumbstruck.
Jiang Xiu's voice resounded beside his ears, "Tell this Deity."
"Is this a Yin Snake's Baleful Manifestation…"
"Or is it not?"
