New Times, New Hell

Ch15 - Capturing a Ghost With Bare Hands

As soon as Shang Que spoke, everyone present became completely confused. A moment later, Chen Sijie snorted, "Where did this maniac come from?"

The little Daoist's face was red with anger. He also used an irate tone to ask Father Chen, "Householder Chen, what does your family mean by this?"

Daoist priest Mu bowed towards Father Chen too. "Householder Chen, from its founding until now, Qinglian Temple has had a legacy of over one thousand years; our skills are passed down from generation to generation. Regardless if the skill in question is spell casting or ritual performing, we have always lived up to our reputation. This time we specially came from Diyang because we saw young Householder Chen's sincerity. If you don't believe in my abilities, then I will leave immediately."

Chen Sijie heard this and became anxious. He told his father, "Dad, Daoist priest Mu is a famous enlightened man in the Diyang area. So many people wait in line to try and invite him but fail, you can't let jiejie fool around like this."

Father Chen was innocent, he didn't even understand what Shang Que just said. He urgently apologized, "Priest, you're mistaken. I don't mean that I don't trust you."

Chen Sijie turned his head to shoo Shang Que and Yu Zhengdu. "Where are you scammers from, hurry and go back to where you came from."

Chen Siyu refused to let her brother have his way. If the people she brought today left just like this, then her reliable image in her father's heart would forever be tarnished. She urgently peeked at Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que, hoping they would express their skills.

Only to see Shang Que glance at her and say coldly, "With this kind of attitude, if you want our company to help you, we're going to have to raise the price."

Chen Siyu: "......"

Everyone present: "......"

Chen Siyu had never regretted anything so much in her life. She only placed her trust in them because this company seemed to have some actual abilities. But who knew that this little boss completely sucked at reading the atmosphere? Now she had lost her face completely in front of her little brother.

Yu Zhengdu couldn't help but look at his boss with admiration. As expected from the Ghost King, still daring to raise the price on the spot even in this situation. But he was scared that if he continued to give Boss free reign, they would get kicked out of the house, so quickly mediated, "There's no need to get so excited. We're not saying the priest is a scammer, just that everyone's technology is different."

The little Daoist was so angry he laughed. He disregarded his master, who was trying to stop him, and stepped forward to say, "Do you even understand the situation? We work in removing evil and keeping away misfortune. We deal with creatures of the Underworld. This isn't something your tomfoolery can handle. If you don't leave soon, don't blame me when you accidentally get trapped in all this......"

As he spoke, Yu Zhengdu pulled out his phone and opened the app to scan Father Chen. "Priest you've misunderstood us. We work in removing evil and catching ghosts too......"

The little Daoist saw that he took his phone out and became even angrier. "What? Are you going to use your phone to take pictures for the ghosts and spirits?"

As soon as he finished, Yu Zhengdu lightly sucked in a breath. He looked at Father Chen in surprise, "Mr. Chen, is your left arm okay?"

Upon hearing this, Father Chen's expression subtly changed. His tone of voice became strange. "Why do you ask that?"

Yu Zhengdu looked at the app and said, "According to the results from our detector, your entire body is covered in Underworld energy. Recently you should've felt cold shivers in your whole body, more seriously on the left side. Especially your left hand......"
