This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

Chapter 42: Huge Harvest, Crying Female Ghost!

Translator: 549690339

The female ghost suddenly turned around upon hearing the sound.

When she saw Xu Yang in a Daoist robe, holding a peach wood sword in his right hand and a Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman in his left, she was instantly terrified and her hair stood on end.

“Ahhhhhh!”

“Daoist Master, please spare my life!”

“Please don’t catch me…”

Whoosh!

She transformed into a stream of Yin energy and flew out from the other side of the building.

“Not good!”

Xu Yang’s expression changed as he was invited by Ma Long’s parents to catch the ghost. Should the red-clothed female ghost escape, wouldn’t he have failed them?

The many workers outside were watching.

If he failed to deal with this, they would undoubtedly be terrified and dare not stay at the construction site. They would pack up and leave overnight, leading to bankruptcy for Ma Long’s father!

Without a second thought, he chased after her, shouting, “Little sister, don’t run.”

With his pursuit, the female ghost became even more frightened!

So…

“Ding!”

“The female ghost was frightened, merit points +30.”

“Ding…”

A series of system notifications sounded.

Xu Yang, who had originally intended to suppress the female ghost with the “Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman”, discovered a new opportunity. He silently put away the talisman in his hand and thought, “It’s such a pity to capture this timid ghost so easily.”

“I might as well scare her some more and earn more merit points!”

He wore a Daoist robe and held a peach wood sword, chasing closely behind the female ghost.

His magic circulated, and the Land Flight Skill emerged, bringing incredible speed.

However, the female ghost was flying after all.

Her speed was even faster.

Xu Yang had an idea.

The system attribute panel opened.

“Land Flight Skill, give me more points!”

“Ding!”

“Merit points -100.”

“Congratulations, Host. Your Land Flight Skill has received a certain improvement.”

“Add more!”

“Ding!”

“Merit points -100.”

Xu Yang clicked thrice in a row, consuming a total of 300 merit points to enhance his “Land Flight Skill.” As expected, a wave of “enlightenment” emerged in his mind, just as if he had practiced this lightness skill for several years. His entire speed suddenly increased by 50%!

Up ahead.

The female ghost, who had initially found that the “little Daoist priest” could not catch up to her, had just heaved a sigh of relief. While flying forward, she looked back.

Upon seeing this, she was so frightened that her liver almost split!

“Ahhhh!”

“This is impossible!”

“How did he suddenly become so fast?”

“What’s the background of this stinking Daoist priest?”

“He has the aura of the Ghost King, and that sword in his hand also poses a significant threat to me. I’d lose my life if he strikes me twice with it. Damn it, damn it… It’s a pity that my corpse in the coffin is suppressed beneath, so 1 can’t leave this construction site!”

“Otherwise, I would fly out of the construction site directly, soaring high like a bird. How could this stinking Daoist priest do anything to me then?”

Her mind was racing with thoughts.

However, on the surface, she shouted loudly, “Daoist Master, spare my life!”

“Daoist Master, I’ve never harmed anyone. Please don’t chase me anymore. Can we sit down and discuss things properly?”

Her voice carried far.

The surrounding workers at the project site were dumbfounded.

They couldn’t see the female ghost, only the Daoist master, pursuing something.

He was incredibly fast, covering several meters with every step, making people marvel at his speed. He was just like the martial arts masters in movies!

Moreover, his speed was getting faster and faster.

“Holy crap!”

“Is this… Is this the legendary Lightness Tiptoe Skill?”

“Master… Has Master created an afterimage while running?”

At this moment, Ma Long stood tall with raised chest, no longer afraid. He pointed at the scene and said, “Look, that ghost is about to pee in fear… Haha, to be honest, this ghost looks pretty good. Hearing her cry, I feel quite sorry for her.”

A worker asked, “Mr. Ma, can you see the ghost?”

“I can.”

Ma Long looked surprised, “Really? You guys can’t see her?”

“Ding!”

“Merit points -100!”

“Congratulations, your Land Flight Skill has achieved minor success.”

Xu Yang spent a total of 600 merit points.

Finally, the hint of achieving minor success in the “Land Flight Skill” came to his mind. His speed increased considerably, and as he circulated his magic, he felt as light as a swallow and seemed to have escaped the Earth’s gravity.

With a light tip of his toes, his whole body whooshed and caught up to the female ghost.

Xu Yang glanced at the system attribute panel. At this moment, there were still 708 merit points left in the [Merit Points] column. Excluding his original 258 merit points, Xu Yang had earned 1050 merit points since entering the construction site!

It sounded like a lot.

In reality, it was only 35 times that the female ghost had been frightened.

“Ding!”

“The female ghost was frightened, merit points +30.”

When the female ghost looked back and saw Xu Yang catching up to her, running shoulder to shoulder with her, she felt her scalp go numb and pleaded, “Daoist Master, please be forgiving and let me go!”

Xu Yang grinned.

Let you go?

How would 1 farm merit points then?

However, this smile, in the female ghost’s eyes, was extremely terrifying. Especially as they were presently so close to one another, Xu Yang’s pervasive and imposing aura that belonged solely to the Ghost King made the female ghost shiver even more.

“Ding!”

“The female ghost was frightened, merit points + 30.”

“Ding!”

“The female ghost was frightened, merit points +30.”

“Ding!”

“The female ghost was frightened, merit points +10.”

She was panting heavily, her yin energy weakened, and it seemed as if the pursuit just now had drawn out much of her strength.

Knowing she couldn’t escape, she decided not to run anymore.

She stopped, clenched her teeth, revealed a face of resigned determination, and said angrily, “Fine! I won’t run anymore… Come on, if you have the guts, kill me! You humans have occupied my home and want to exterminate me. Do we ghosts deserve to be bullied?”

Xu Yang stopped in his tracks.

He felt somewhat tired too.

After achieving minor success in the Land Flight Skill, his speed had indeed increased by a large margin.

But the consumption of his magic was also faster. Besides, he had used his Fire Manipulation Skill in front of others earlier. Xu Yang felt that his magic was nearly exhausted.

Glancing at the system attribute panel, his merit points had increased by another 100, reaching 808.

Xu Yang spent 700 points to increase his magic.

Hum!

His aura surged, and he instantly stepped into the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm from the fourth. He looked at the female ghost and said, “I am a kind person who always believes in convincing others with reason, and I treat ghosts the same way. You said you haven’t done evil, so why have you been scaring the workers all this time?”

As soon as the issue was raised, the female ghost grew even angrier.

Filled with mixed emotions of anger, fear, and injustice, she choked, “I’ve been living here for decades without worries or causing harm to anyone. Three years ago, I went to the Ghost Market and acquired a treasure. After refining it, I fell into a deep slumber… Only to wake up and find my home occupied!”

“Wuuwuuwuu…”

“Not only have they taken over my home, but they’ve also sealed my tomb, leaving me homeless….”
