Chapitre 36: Talisman

Ku Wang was in a complete state of shock, no matter what reasons he wanted to make, everything related to Zhu Long had pointed to one thing, Something extremely important.

Hou Ming looked at Ku Wang's shocked face and smiled warmly, telling him to calm down. It seemed like Hou Ming known the situation very well and had expected this. He Then looked towards Zhu Long and said," Little Brother Lin, You need not worry for what is happening, As I'm sure that Time will reveal everything. For now, I hope Little brother Lin will sheath Phoenix cry Using this cabbard." Hou Ming took out a very ordinary looking sheath. Although the sheath was ordinary to the average person, Zhu Long sensed a small aura emanating from it. He took the sheath and examined it,'It seems like this sheath will work to hide the presence of this sword. It seems like senior brother Ming was ready for this moment, even bringing such a useful sheath. It seems like there are many things that I don't know.'

Zhu Long took Phoenix Cry and put it in the Sheath. As soon as the sword entered the sheath, Zhu Long noticed that The Scabbard looked very ordinary, It looked as if there was a weak and ordinary sword within the sheath.

Hou Ming smiled when he saw Zhu Long sheathing Phoenix cry, He looked towards the confused Ku Wang and said,"Little Ku, I apologize for not telling you anything, But I am doing as master has asked me to, which includes me not explaining you about the reason I took out Phoenix Cry and also other things. I hope you don't feel too bad as in the future, everything will be revealed to you as well as Little Brother Lin, until then, I hope both of you can endure it.." He looked helplessly towards Zhu Long as well as Ku Wang. It really seemed like Hou Ming had felt bad when he had to keep secrets from others.

Hou Ming smiled towards Zhu Long and took out a yellow paper which had some red writing on it,"Little Brother Lin, I will give you this just in case of an emergency. This is a talisman, if you rip it, It will be a way for you to give me a signal for help, As soon as I get it, I will rush as quick as I can towards the location where you ripped it. Little Ku already has this but in case you get separated, this can be used."

Zhu Long didn't stand on any convention and happily accepted the talisman. He knew it's value very well as he had seen it being used by his grandfather before in the Zhu Clan."Now that I think of it, I have seen another talisman in the mansion, stuck to the top of Senior Brother's Room, I wonder what that talisman did?" Zhu Long asked as he looked towards Hou Ming.

Hou Ming smiled and said,"It is a talisman that is used to prevent external noises from entering an enclosure. I use it to not get distracted by Little Ku's Zhiter while I am concocting a pill or cultivating." Hou Ming then Looked towards the mansion and said,"Brother Lin is a bit off, there isn't just one Talisman in the mansion, In fact, there are 124 of them all around the mansion! Can you guess the reason why?" Hou Ming tried to act mysteriously.

After thinking for a few seconds, Zhu Long smiled,"If I remember correctly, The closer I got to the Mansion, the fewer the Demonic beasts became. I wonder, are those Talismans related to that?" Hou Ming's face became a bit darker. He wanted to make Zhu Long guess a bit and keep him in suspense but Zhu Long had answered his question like it was nothing. He thought to himself,'One day..One day, I will ask you such a question that you will have to beg me for the answer HAHAHA'

As Hou Ming was in his flight of fantasy, Zhu Long had already understood that he was correct when he saw Hou Ming's expression but stayed silent, waiting for him to answer. Hou Ming shook his head and looked towards Zhu Long,"Little Brother Lin is truly smart! The reason that Demonic Beasts don't get too close is due to those talismans which give off a certain aura that they cannot even stand." He explained to Zhu Long.

Zhu Long seemed surprised By Hou Ming's words,"If those Talismans gave of such aura, I wonder why I can't seem to sense it?" He asked truthfully. Until now, Zhu Long always had the ability to sense aura emanating from objects that contained qi. When he heard that there was a aura emanating from the talismans used to ward off Demonic beasts, He was confused as he had never sensed any aura coming from the mansion when he was heading towards it. Even after entering the mansion, he had sensed the aura from the portraits but never sensed any talismans.

'Now that I think of it, I didn't feel any aura from the talisman which was on Senior Brother Ming's door as well as this one' Zhu Long thought as he looked towards the Talisman in his hands. He then looked towards Hou Ming with anticipation.

"The answer for your question is very simple, it is our sensed are weaker than that of those Demonic Beasts. When your power advanced to a higher level, you will be able to notice the aura emanating from these Talismans. But again, it also depends on the power and complexity of the Talisman, If it is a weaker and less complex talisman like the one used to keep a room free from external sounds, It can be detected by those of Void Realm." Hou Ming explained slowly, trying not to miss any information. After Listening to Hou Ming, Zhu Long nodded in satisfaction. I was always better to learn new things, especially if it could be useful for the future.

"Alright, I think it's time for both of you to head towards Qiang Wuhan's Mansion. From what I've heard from Little brother Lin, It seems that not only is Qiang Wuhan in danger but he was also being used as hostage to manipulate Elder Kong. Well, we don't know if that was the case or the Imp was just bluffing." Hou Ming's voice came out of nowhere. It seemed like he wanted Zhu Long and Ku Wang to Leave Immediately.
