Chapter 61: Nice to Meet You, My Name Is Song Shuhang

  Translator: GodBrandy  Editor: Kurisu

  

  

  

  That day, on the way back from capturing ghost spirits, Soft Feather mentioned to Song Shuhang that her father had sealed a ghost spirit at ‘Ghost Lamp Temple.’ However, Soft Feather subdued two ghost spirits.

  Ghost spirits can’t give birth, so where did the other ghost spirit come from?

  Maybe, the two ghost spirits were male and female. They were fated to meet even if they were thousand miles apart, and so the forbidden love story of two ghosts unfolded?

  Or perhaps, someone specially placed a ghost spirit in Ghost Lamp Temple to nurture it.

  If it were the former, then there would be no problem.

  If it were the latter, then there would be a huge problem!

  By the looks of it, the latter had a greater possibility of being true.

  ‘If it were the latter, then does he want to take back the ghost spirit from me?’ Song Shuhang’s eyes contained clarity, ‘And, kill me in the process?’

  The world of cultivators had always been cruel.

  As they possessed power above that of the normal world, powerful cultivators were difficult to restrain with the mortal world’s laws.

  The only things that restrained a cultivator were his morals and ethics, and the bottom line of being a ‘human.’ When morals and ethics shatter, and self-restraint is lost, some cultivators could stoop to anything.

  Slaughter, brutality, oppression… to regard human life as worthless and something to be ravaged at will… all sorts of things made up the perils and cruelty in the world of cultivators.

  You took my treasure, so I’ll kill your whole family. Some extreme cultivators from evil sects would certainly do such a thing.

  Song Shuhang who had not even completed Foundation Establishment was exposed to the cruel side of the world of cultivators in advance.

  ‘Of course, I can’t discount the last possibility.’ Song Shuhang pinched the spirit-binding ice bead. The last possibility was that “treasures could rouse one’s heart.” He hadn’t expended much effort in concealing the spirit-binding ice bead, and one who had sinister motives could have seen it when he was inattentive. Consequently, that person began to think of killing him and stealing his treasure.

  If it were really this type of person, then it would be more damning for the victim.

  ‘But, that person has already entered the room, and even came to my bed, so why did that person not harm me?’ the blade had already fallen next to his bed; there was no reason for that person to retreat when success was so close.

  ‘Was there someone protecting me?’ Song Shuhang recalled the faint smell of blood.

  Was it Senior Medicine Master?

  Song Shuhang put away the blade carefully, and decided to pay Medicine Master a visit before attending the morning’s class.

  He had many suspicions to inquire the senior about.

  Moreover, he wanted to consult the senior on methods to ‘raise vigilance’ and ‘hide treasures.’

  After he washed up, Song Shuhang pulled some clothes on and hurried out of school dorm without eating breakfast.

  When he was leaving the male dorm, he saw a large silhouette from afar, waving at him.

  “Fellow Student Shuhang.” The silhouette approached, it was the big fellow from last night, Nan Haomeng, who had been beaten one-sidedly by Shuhang.

  Song Shuhang stopped and looked at him doubtfully.

  “I found the one who investigated you.” Nan Haomeng said in a quiet voice as he approached Shuhang.

  Song Shuhang was a bit shocked, “Your efficiency is surprisingly good, that was fast.”

  It had only been a night, right?

  “That’s a must. In a fast-paced era, if you don’t increase your efficiency, you’ll be eliminated by the world.” Nan Haomeng said some very philosophical things, but accompanied by his large stature, it had an indescribable awkwardness to it.

  In actuality, the smooth investigation process exceeded Nan Haomeng’s expectations. He had just let the two good-for-nothing club members help find the person Song Shuhang wanted, yet the two club members just happened to have acquired some news very quickly.

  The main reason was because the two secretly looked into information regarding Song Shuhang themselves after the beating from Song Shuhang. Under an existing foundation, they quickly narrowed down the target.

  “Who is it?” Song Shuhang really needed this information right now.

  “It’s a student in our school, Lin Tao, a sophomore in the Department of Finance who lives in the dorms. The dorms aren’t far from here, want to go take a look?” Nan Haomeng replied.

  Song Shuhang knitted his brows. It was not a stranger, but a student from our school?

  But he quickly realized that the guy who investigated him naturally wouldn’t be so stupid as to do so openly. Nowadays, with a bit of money, one could get others to gather information on him easily.

  This student was one of those who were entrusted to do so.

  Song Shuhang checked the time, “It’s still early, let’s pay him a visit.”

  With that said, Song Shuhang clenched his fists tightly.

  Department of Finance’s male dorm.

  It was rare for Lin Tao to wake up early. He had been in a good mood the past two days. Yesterday morning, a ‘foolishly rich’ guy with sunglasses gave him enough money to cover his entire year’s expense, and asked him to investigate a student in Jiangnan College Town named Song Shuhang.

  The other party had said that his daughter had been hanging out with a student named Song Shuhang in the past few days. He was a bit worried, so he made Lin Tao look into Song Shuhang’s personal data.

  The moment Lin Tao heard this, he knew he was being lied to. But, seeing the amount of money, he pretended to believe the other party.

  No one has anything against notes, and it was only to investigate a student’s information, which was as easy as the lift of a hand. So, he accepted the money, and simply gathered some information on Song Shuhang.

  With this accidental fortune, Lin Tao had been living comfortably the past two days.

  “Knock knock,” a knocking sound came from the door.

  “Excuse me, does student Lin Tao live here?” a gentle voice came from outside the door; just from the voice, one would easily feel amiable.

  ‘Who’s looking for me this early?’ Lin Tao harbored doubts, but he still opened the door.

  The instant he opened the door, Lin Tao felt a dense darkness before his eyes. A two-meter tall iron tower-like fellow stood expressionless at the door, full of oppressiveness; it scared him.

  He subconsciously wanted to close the door.

  “You’re Student Lin Tao?” the gentle voice sounded again.

  At this moment, Lin Tao realized there was a good-natured-looking student next to the big fellow.

  After seeing this man, Lin Tao’s tenseness subsided a little, “I am, why’re you looking for me?”

  “Nice to meet you, my name is Song Shuhang.” Song Shuhang’s friendly expression faded.

  Song Shuhang, what a familiar name…?

  Oh sh*t, isn’t he the one the ‘foolishly rich’ guy had him investigate?

  Lin Tao immediately realized something was wrong. He stepped back quickly, reaching to close the door.

  But, Song Shuhang reached out and pressed lightly on the door, “Looks like student Lin Tao knows about me.”

  Then, Lin Tao realized the door in his hand would not budge at all.

  He was scared, what sort of monstrous strength is this? The man obviously did not look strong at all, yet blocked the door with one hand. Lin Tao used all his might and even his body, yet the door would not budge an inch.

  “From your reaction, it seems I found the right guy. So, Student Lin Tao, you want to have a proper chat with me, or do you want to have a proper chat with my fists?” Song Shuhang said with emphasis on each syllable; even he would get furious under the circumstances that someone had sold all of his personal information, nearly getting him killed.

  Due to this information, his friends and relatives might be harmed or even killed! If he weren’t furious, then he would be the merciful savior of the world.

  For a short instant, Song Shuhang even had the thought of beating the man into a vegetative state.

  “Don’t do anything reckless, this is a school. If you do anything reckless, no one will get away with the consequences.”

  “Thanks for your reminder.” Song Shuhand nodded, “Well, Student Lin Tao, are you never going to take a step outside the school for the rest of your life?”

  If you take a step outside of school, then you’ll be having a chat with my fists—Lin Tao’s not an idiot, how could he not understand the meaning behind those words.

  “Let’s find a place to have a proper chat. I promise to tell you everything I know.” Lin Tao smiled bitterly; as expected, greed was the worst amongst seven deadly sins.

  Song Shuhang let go with the right hand that was pressed on the door, turned and walked towards the rooftop.

  At this moment, Lin Tao really wanted to slam the door, and call the dorm teacher for help. But, peeking at the two-meter tall sturdy fellow, he swallowed his saliva and decided otherwise.
