Song Shuhang told Medicine Master his speculations.

　　“In other words, you suspect that the one who snuck into your room was the ghost spirit’s master or a cultivator whose greed was aroused by riches after seeing your ghost spirit incidentally?

　　“Soft Feather is Venerable Spirit Butterfly’s daughter, the one teacher mentioned.” Riverly Purple Mist shook her head as she laughed. As expected of a generous young lady, giving away a ghost spirit unhesitantly.

　　A treasure like the ghost spirit… even a cultivator of her stage did not have one. However, for the current her, this middle-rank ghost spirit was useless.

　　“What do you plan on doing?” Medicine Master looked at Song Shuhang as he asked.

　　Song Shuhang sighed, “Honestly, if the opponent was targeting only me, then I wouldn’t need to be so worried.”

　　Their existence would even make Song Shuhang more delighted, as it would motivate him to train more.

　　“However, yesterday afternoon, I heard someone paid a Jiangnan College Town student to gather information on me, my friends, and family. I’m somewhat worried that these guys will use any means necessary against me and hurt my friends and family.”

　　His strength at the moment was not enough to protect his friends and family. This was why Senior Northern River had exhorted him not to reveal his ‘cultivator’ status before he had the strength to protect his friends and family.

　　The problem lies, however, in that he has not even revealed his ‘cultivator’ status, yet trouble still came!

　　Suddenly, he felt very wronged.

　　Riverly Purple Mist laughed mischievously, “Shuhang, why don’t I hold onto the ghost spirit for you? Then, let those guys come find me, and I’ll take them out one by one, sounds good?”

　　As she said that, Medicine Master flicked her forehead fiercely, “Don’t suggest rotten ideas. This ghost spirit means the world to little friend Shuhang. After he finishes Foundation Establishment, and collects the necessary ingredients for a contract formation, he’ll be able to contract this ghost spirit.”

　　With this ghost spirit, even if he missed the ‘prime age for foundation establishment,’ Shuhang would still have a chance to catch up gradually to the geniuses of the sects. Without the ghost spirit… Song Shuhang’s future path of cultivation would be three to five times more arduous.

　　Song Shuhang’s eyes slightly brightened.

　　Riverly Purple Mist rubbed her forehead and grimaced, “I was just joking, besides, this ghost spirit is of no use to me now.”

　　Song Shuhang said in serious tone, “So, I must find the mastermind behind this. Then, I’ll get rid of him by all means necessary.”

　　“What if the enemy’s strength is way beyond yours? How will you get rid of him?” Medicine Master reminded.

　　In reality, the enemy’s strength was definitely way beyond that of Shuhang’s.

　　“After I find the whereabouts of the enemy…” Song Shuhang pinched the spirit-binding ice bead and probed, “Senior Medicine Master, I’d like to ask, if I put up this ghost spirit as compensation, will you get rid of the opposition for me?”

　　For the safety of his family and friends, he’d give up external things like the ghost spirit if necessary!

　　Medicine Master laughed in gratification. Between the ghost spirit and his family, Shuhang chose the latter. For some cultivators, this decision was completely asinine. However, Medicine Master admired Shuhang’s decision.

　　But, he shook his head, “Unfortunately, I cannot help you, because I’m not skilled in battle. Moreover, your enemy could be hiding in the dark. I don’t have experience with tailing or finding hidden enemies.”

　　Additionally, he did not need the ghost spirit.

　　“However… there are many seniors in the group who have cute juniors. If you’re willing to compensate them with the ghost spirit, I believe many seniors in the group would travel far to aid you in getting rid of this hidden enemy. I can guarantee that.” Medicine Master smiled as he said.

　　“If that’s the case, I’m relieved.” Song Shuhang carefully put away the ‘spirit-binding ice bead.’

　　At least, with this ghost spirit here, he wouldn’t fall into an impasse.

　　He had support in retreat. He was already in an invincible position for this battle.

　　“However, unless you’re out of options, I don’t recommend that you trade the ghost spirit away.”

　　“Why is that, Senior?” perplexed, Song Shuhang asked.

　　“For you, this ghost spirit is extremely important. I haven’t explained some basic knowledge on cultivator’s Foundation Establishment. Simply put, you’ve passed the prime age for Foundation Establishment. With this ghost spirit, you can at least catch up to normal cultivators and go further on the path of cultivation. Without this ghost spirit, you may find it difficult to progress further than Second Stage Realm. For you, this ghost spirit is your path to success.” Medicine Master answered.

　　“But, I have no other options.” Song Shuhang said. He was only a normal student without a strong force behind him. Other than to use the ghost spirit as compensation, he had no other possessions that would incentivize the seniors in the group to help him.

　　“Maybe your enemy is not as strong as you think. If the enemy is at First Stage Realm, then they would be in the range where you could resist, and they might even be a great opponent to temper yourself. At the same time, before you find the enemy, you can try your best to find help.” Medicine Master smiled with squinted eyes, “Again, don’t trade the ghost spirit… unless you really have to.”

　　“Thank you, Senior.” Song Shuhang nodded; at least, he first had to find the hidden enemy mastermind. Otherwise, everything was just empty talk.

　　Riverly Purple Mist suddenly burst into laughter, “Shuhang, I knew you were an interesting guy. By the way, Teacher, do you need my help with anything else?”

　　“Oh, it’s enough that you transported my pill furnace.” Medicine Master laughed, his hair shook like thicket, back and forth.

　　“I guess I’ll be really idle? In that case, I’ll go do something interesting.” Riverly Purple Mist laughed mischievously and boisterously, and licked her lips seductively.

　　Song Shuhang discovered that mischievous laughter suited Riverly Purple Mist. When she laughed, there was an evil charm to her. It was like a raging flame that moths fly desperately into despite knowing it was dangerous.

　　Perhaps she felt she had laughed too much, for she quickly covered her mouth. She giggled and leapt out through the window, leaving quickly. Who knew what she wanted to do.

　　Medicine Master smiled as he shook his head, and carried his pill furnace, placing it in an appropriate spot.

　　“By the way, Senior Medicine Master, I would like to ask you for guidance on methods to sense whether or not someone’s following me, and how to keep vigilance.” Song Shuhang requested earnestly.

　　After this experience, he understood that he had too many shortcomings. He enjoyed the delight of being the target of an assassination, but only for the thrill of it; he did not like being stabbed to death while laying in bed.

　　“These are all knacks used by cultivators daily, and are easy to grasp. Oh yes, wait a moment.” Medicine Master took out his phone, and logged in on the chat software. Then, he opened Nine Provinces Number One Group.

　　There were several strange files within the group’s space.

　　“Modern electrical appliance usage and diagrams—air conditioner, television, computer, cellphone, refrigerator, rice cooker… etcetera.”

　　“Tips on how to quickly grasp the usage of cellphones…”

　　“Fellow Daoists who have meditated in seclusion for over fifty years and need to create a personal ID, for more information please contact *****”

　　“Need to exchange gold and other things alike for notes, please contact *****”

　　“Things cultivators need to pay attention to in modern society: technology advances quickly, ten ways on how to quickly blend into society quickly. Don’t let normal people notice peculiarities.”

　　“Basic traffic safety rules; remember not to break other cars on the road. Appendix: pictures of differently shaped cars. Ps: This is a means of transportation, like carriages, it’s not a monster beast.”—it read don’t break the cars! And not, be careful not to bump into cars. There were even senior cultivators that treated cars as monster beasts? Song Shuhang really wanted to know whether that senior captured the car? Or, ‘killed’ it?

　　“Proposal for picking secluded meditation spots and important cautions; don’t let Scholar Xian Gong’s tragedy happen again.”
