Ghost Catching System

Chu Hao asked a few more questions, but the man genuinely didn’t know anything else, so Chu Hao let them leave.

After Wang Xiaofeng and the Taoist priest departed, Wang Xiaofeng asked, ”Why are you so afraid of Chu Hao?”

The Taoist priest hurriedly said, ”Don’t ask. He’s not the ordinary person you think he is. If you encounter him in the future, avoid him if at all possible. He’s Devil Chu of the Yin and Yang Realm.”

Wang Xiaofeng, curious, asked, ”What is the Yin and Yang Realm?”

”You’ll know once you’re on the mountain,” replied the Taoist priest.

Chu Hao was curious. He searched through numerous news reports; these events were happening all over the country.

Inside the dormitory building, Teng Jin remarked, ”Tch, this news is too fake. Someone claimed they were a military general from a past life and were actually invited to join, receiving a large sum of compensation and an apartment in a first-tier city.”

Feng Gao laughed. ”Then I’m the reincarnation of Xu Chu. Can I get a hefty reward too?”

Teng Jin said, ”You, Xu Chu? Then I must be the reincarnation of Zhao Zilong.”

Chu Hao asked, ”Which news report?”

Turning his newly bought computer toward Chu Hao, Teng Jin said, ”It’s someone from Nan State. He claims he’s the reincarnation of Dian Wei.”

Dian Wei?

Dian Wei was a mighty general under Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period, and his strength was considerable. It was said that during the Three Kingdoms era, Dian Wei was one of the few who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Zhang Fei.

After reading the news, Chu Hao also felt it was too far-fetched. Even if this person is the reincarnation of Dian Wei, does he still possess Dian Wei’s former martial skills? And yet, such a high price was being paid to recruit a reincarnated individual.

Moreover, Li Yin found another piece of news and said, ”Look at this. An eight-year-old boy claims he is Kong Xuan and was taken away by people from Lingjiu Mountain that very day.”

Kong Xuan!

Chu Hao was surprised. Kong Xuan’s background was extraordinary; if the little boy was his reincarnation, it would be truly remarkable.

Chu Hao was somewhat astonished. What was happening to the world? Could there be disturbances in the Underworld, with people regaining their past memories one after another?

At that moment, Chu Hao’s phone rang. It wasn’t an ordinary phone but the special one issued to him as a legitimate Yin-Yang Person of the Underworld.

There was an important notice on the screen.

Notice: ”The Foreign Ghost Army is attacking Beijing. All Ghost Cultivators, please head there to assist.”

Seeing this notice, Chu Hao was certain that something had happened in the Underworld: the Foreign Ghost Army from the Land of the Vast Ancient was attacking Beijing.

But what did this have to do with some people opening their Heavenly Eyes or with reincarnation?

More and more bizarre news was appearing online. Abnormalities began to emerge abroad as well. Some claimed they could see demons and monsters, alleging that these creatures had been hiding in the Human World for a long time.

Online, a foreign man claimed he could make demons reveal themselves. So, one night, he went to a graveyard.

In the pitch-black night, his eyes suddenly turned white. Then, in the video where previously nothing seemed amiss, viewers saw an old man in a black formal suit hovering over a grave. The old man floated, looking at them with dull eyes.

This video caused a sensation abroad, but it was quickly deleted.

These events made Chu Hao feel that something significant was about to happen. He wanted to figure out what was going on and prepare for everything.

One day, Zhao Gousheng called Chu Hao, asking him to visit Tiger Soul.

Chu Hao had been waiting for his call, so he went to Tiger Soul alone.

Tiger Soul in the Imperial Capital was the same secretive place as always. Zhao Gousheng had more white hair now; Chu Hao guessed he had been quite troubled lately.

Chu Hao asked directly, ”What do you need me for?”

Zhao Gousheng sighed. ”We need your help.”

Chu Hao remained silent, merely looking at Zhao Gousheng, not in any hurry.

Zhao Gousheng then said, ”Things are chaotic outside, as you know. A new era is about to dawn.”

Chu Hao nodded. ”It is chaotic. But what do you mean by a new era? Recently, some people have opened their Heavenly Eyes, while others claim to be reincarnations of historical figures. What’s going on?”

Zhao Gousheng said earnestly, ”This is the new era I spoke of—an era of gods and ghosts.”

Chu Hao asked curiously, ”What happened?”

Zhao Gousheng replied, ”I only know that the rules of Heaven and Earth have changed, but I’m not sure who caused it. What is certain is that in the future, a large number of people will awaken their Heavenly Eye, experience reincarnation, or possess rare supernatural abilities.”

”Many from Taoist and Buddhist sects are searching for these individuals to make preparations.”

Chu Hao asked in surprise, ”You don’t know the cause either?”

Zhao Gousheng shook his head. ”We don’t. The new era hasn’t fully arrived, and many are preparing for any eventualities.”

Chu Hao nodded. ”What do you want from me?”

Zhao Gousheng said earnestly, ”We want to find the Heavenly Bone Woman. She once prophesied that a major upheaval would occur, so she should know something about it. We in the Seventh District want to get to the bottom of it first, but we can’t find her.”

Chu Hao shrugged. ”I wish I knew where she was.”

Bai Ling had become increasingly mysterious; Heaven knew where she had gone.

Zhao Gousheng was also helpless.

Chu Hao left Tiger Soul. Who else besides Bai Ling might know what was about to happen?

The toad wasn’t to be relied upon; it was struggling to protect itself.

Chu Hao suddenly thought of someone. Yi Qinglian’s sister, the divine avatar of Le Shen, Yi Qingcheng!

She was a divine deity’s avatar; perhaps she knew something.

So, Chu Hao went to the Yi Family. He brought many gifts, met Yi Qinglian’s parents, and then met Yi Qingcheng.

Yi Qingcheng looked identical to Yi Qinglian but seemed more mature and possessed a gentle, wise aura.

Yi Qingcheng smiled and asked, ”How have you been recently?”

As Le Shen, a divine deity, she naturally possessed a certain loftiness. However, Chu Hao couldn’t sense any arrogance from Yi Qingcheng, only an approachable warmth.

Le Shen had a good temper, much better than the Unfeeling Woman.

Chu Hao smiled. ”Not bad, just didn’t have time to visit the Imperial Capital.”

Yi Qingcheng nodded.

Chu Hao inquired, ”Have you heard about what’s happening outside? People opening their Heavenly Eye, reincarnations, miraculous powers... Is something big about to occur?”

Yi Qingcheng took a sip of tea and responded, ”Something is going to happen, but it’s a good thing.”

Just as he expected, Le Shen knew something. Chu Hao’s curiosity was piqued, and he asked, ”Why is it a good thing? Everything’s chaotic now. I even thought everyone from the Underworld was going to return to the Human World.”

Yi Qingcheng smiled. ”This Human World is going to rejuvenate.”

Rejuvenate!

That word was crucial.

Yi Qingcheng continued, ”The Human World outside is gradually expanding, squeezing towards our space.”

Chu Hao looked surprised.

Yi Qingcheng said, ”Let me give you an example. What happens when two bubbles, one big and one small, collide?”

Chu Hao replied, ”They explode!”

Yi Qingcheng shook her head. ”What if they don’t explode?”

Chu Hao’s eyes lit up. ”They merge, becoming one bubble!”

Yi Qingcheng nodded. ”Exactly.”

Chu Hao was shocked. Could it be that the Human World outside is about to merge with theirs?
