Chapter 525: Family Member



"Amituofo... Master Fang!"

Jiese the Monk was stunned as he saw Fang Yuan who had came to look for a roof over his head.

"Monk... the room that you have rented is a little too... lousy?"

Fang Yuan tossed his luggage on the ground and commented on the room with dissatisfaction.

"For a traveller, I am already satisfied to have a place to stay. Most importantly..."

Jiese the Monk blushed. "I don’t have money!"

"That’s true... According to you, this is the first time you have ever left your mountain..."

Fang Yuan nodded his head. "Don’t worry. Looking at your skills, you will be able to get anything you want if you help any haunted house perform an exorcism..."

"Amituofo, that is what I think too."

Jiese the Monk did not hide his thoughts and spoke the truth.

Even among the Exorcists Alliance, there were only a few exorcists who could really deal with ghosts. The members of the alliance spent most of their time telling the fortune for others or provide blessing services, which were totally unrelated form exorcism.

To any exorcists, it was not as worth it to risk their lives against powerful ghosts and curses in order to earn a living. They would rather do other things to get rich!

"But... Why are you here?"

Jiese the Monk froze on the spot.

He knew that Fang Yuan was ruthless. Although Fang Yuan had the skill to seal ghosts and seemed reliable, if he were to accidentally release the ghosts, Jiese the Monk would be the first to die!

"Recently, I’ve felt danger all around me. I cannot rely on the both of them at the office, so I’ve come to look for someone I can rely on to help me!"

Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders and spoke the truth, which almost choked Jiese the Monk.

Although he had successfully defended himself from the attack of the Door, it was still the strongest curse Fang Yuan had ever seen in his life. He wasn’t even sure if Jiese the Monk would be able to help him fight against such a strong curse.

Furthermore, although Fang Yuan’s killer moves were the ghosts sealed in him, his Spirit Sealing Body was also a double-edged sword. If he was not careful enough, he might just harm the people around him, especially if he were to release two Strange Level curses at once!

This was the reason why Fang Yuan wanted to move out as soon as possible to look for Jiese the Monk.

"It’s alright... Considering your abilities and good karma, you will remain unharmed even if I were to accidentally release the ghosts in me!"

Fang Yuan comforted Jiese the Monk. "If you want me to leave, then feed me with intelligence form the alliance. I will be able to start on my world tour then..."

With the experience of fighting against the Curse of the Door, Fang Yuan had gained a deeper understanding of his own capabilities.

The power of two Strange Level curses would not be enough to fight against the Green Bronze Door.

In order to stand any chance against it, Fang Yuan had to find stronger curses to seal!

In reality, other than the Exorcists Alliance, Fang Yuan also had a few followers under him. They were the traders of the pawnshop.

For instance, Lu Bingqi had been tasked to search for another curse as powerful as the pawnshop.

Fang Yuan had also promised him that if he were to find a Strange Level curse, Fang Yuan would help him remove the seal from his soul. With this, he would not have to worry about the traders not taking their tasks seriously.

’With so much control, I’m sure I will be able to find something, right?’

Just as he was thinking to himself, Jiese the Monk was feeling the pressure from him. At this moment, Jiese the Monk excused himself to pick up a call before returning to Fang Yuan with joy written all over his face. "After the alliance had heard of your story, they are extremely interested in you. The leader of our area is already on a flight and is about to reach us soon!"

"The leader of our area?"

Fang Yuan replied casually. "Alright then, I shall pay him a visit."

He picked his luggage up and walked out towards the door.

"Eh?"

Jiese the Monk appeared confused.

"I’ve already bought the apartment next to yours. Do you really think I will want to squeeze with you?"

Fang Yuan revealed a disgusted look and turned around. Jiese the Monk was lost as he stared blankly at his simple-looking apartment.

...

"I’m finally... back here!"

The plane gently landed on the runway and a row of passengers walked out of the plane.

Zhan Tianhu looked towards the city and sighed.

"Eh? President, have you been here before?"

Chen Xin immediately became excited and started to pester Zhan Tianhu.

"Alright sister, don’t disturb the president!"

Chen Xin’s brother held her back.

The weird thing was that although there were a lot of tourists, none of them felt that Zhan Tianhu’s mask was out of the norm. Surprisingly, he had safely made it through the customs.

"Hehe... Actually, this is my hometown!"

Zhan Tianhu chuckled.

"Your hometown? If that is so, where is your house?"

Chen Xin’s eyes were about to ignite with excitement.

"House?"

Zhan Tianhu was in a daze. "In the depths of the mountains, my house remains sealed there. We rarely interact with the outside world... Furthermore, I..."

He shook his head and paused.

Seeing this, no matter how insensitive Chen Xin was, she was still able to tell that this was a painful memory for the president. Therefore, she kept her mouth shut and did not press on.

"Alright, let’s look for a place to stay first. It’s best if we can rent an entire apartment. After all, considering who we are, it’s not very appropriate to stay with others!"

Zhan Tianhu spoke with an assertive voice.

"Chen He, I’ll leave this to you. Chen Xin, contact Master Jiese!"

"Alright!"

As the president, he gave out his orders and his subordinates could only obediently follow his orders. Not long after, they quickly settled down in an apartment on the outskirts of the city.

"President!"

Although Chen Xin was a hopeless romantic, her culinary skills were rather good. She whipped up a meal with vegetables and buns with meat fillings. As they ate, she updated everyone on the current situation. "I have already contacted Mas... Master Jiese. He told me that that person is just beside him and will be able to meet us anytime. Right, his name is Fang Yuan!"

"Fang Yuan? Fang Yuan! I’ve never heard of him!"

Zhan Tianhu stuffed the last bun into his mouth. "It seems like he is anxious as well. Inform him that we shall meet him here tomorrow!"

As the President, his subordinates were well-trained and he did not have to worry about security.

Even though Fang Yuan could deal with the curse of the pawnshop, the President had nothing to worry about!

After all, the methods which were effective in dealing with curses might not be as effective against humans. Furthermore, all of them had skills of their own and they had nothing to worry about even if Fang Yuan were to turn against them.

Of course, the most expected outcome would be for all of them to combine forces and deal with curses.

This world was already desperate enough and the remaining combat power of the humans should not be wasted on internal conflicts.

...

"The President, Zhan Tianhu! He is an incredible person!"

At the same time, Fang Yuan was discussing with Jiese the Monk about meeting the President.

"This person had become an exorcist 30 years ago and had dealt with countless curses and ghosts. He is well-known and 10 years ago, he was being recommended to take over as the President! It’s rumoured that his blood has the ability to repel ghosts and is even more effective than any forms of holy water. However, his most powerful move would still be the half-ghost face mask he wears on his face."

Before Fang Yuan, Jiese the Monk did not hide anything and revealed the entire truth.

"Blood... and mask?"

Fang Yuan remained silent.

Unknowingly, as soon as he heard that the President’s blood could be used to repel ghosts, he started to think about the Tantai Family.

He would not know about other families, but he knew best about the Tantai Family.

This seemed to be like an elder awakening a special ability.

"If this is true... Zhan Tianhu might just be a member of the Tantai Family? I wonder what he will think about me as soon as he hears about my parentage!"

Fang Yuan sighed and revealed a weird expression.

After many generations, there were now many forms of mutations and variants.

Considering the size of the Tantai Family, it would only be normal for a few members of the family to turn against the entire family.

Fang Yuan also felt that it was extremely possible for there to be members of the Tantai Family involved in activities in the outside world.

The only thing that would make everything complicated would be their familial ties.

’However... I am now Fang Yuan. Even if he discovers my identity as Tantai Mieming, he can still choose to be a friend or foe. If he wants to report me to the family, I will just kill him!’

After coming to a conclusion, Fang Yuan returned to his own apartment and sat on the floor with his legs crossed.

At this point in time, the silhouette which appeared together with the Tantai Mansion had also arrived at the city.

"By harnessing the power of the curses, I can sense that there are two members of the Tantai Family here!"

The silhouette sniffed the surroundings and sounded confused. "It’s that rebel? Or could it be members of our family working in the outside world?"

"I shall go... and look for him!"

With a soft voice, the silhouette mumbled. "I shall bring Tantai Mieming... back!"

"I know... I know..."

The silhouette knelt on the ground and seemed to be in pain. "I will accomplish the task and bring Tantai Mieming back to the Netherworld, I swear I will!"

He gritted his teeth. "He has to pay the price for giving us 15 years of living in the dark!"

...

The sky was clear and the breeze was light.

Fang Yuan followed Jiese the Monk to an apartment in the outskirts of the city.

"You should know that we exorcists don’t really like to stay close to other humans. We are naturally like that and it is our habit as well..."

Jiese the Monk sighed.

Some exorcists were incredibly strong and would remain unharmed even after coming in contact with powerful ghosts, but normal humans would never be able to survive if they encountered these ghosts.

If they didn’t want to lose their family members, they had to leave them.

"Hi guys, it’s me!"

Upon arrival, Jiese the Monk went up and knocked on the door. Very quickly, the red wooden door creaked open and a lady in a white collared shirt poked her head out. "It’s Master Jiese! I’m Chen Xin, and the President is already waiting for you guys. Is this Fang Yuan? Please enter!"

She started to examine Fang Yuan but Fang Yuan paid no attention to her. Instead, he walked into the apartment casually.

When he had approached the apartment, he had already sensed a familiar spiritual aura which confirmed his suspicions.

After arriving at the living room, he noticed a person wearing a ghost mask sitting on the sofa. There was a group of people behind this person and this person was equally stunned as he looked towards Fang Yuan.

"Zhan Tianhu?"

Fang Yuan’s eyes glistened. He had confirmed that this person was a lost member of the Tantai Family!
