My Father Is Definitely Possessed-Chapter 46: Ghost Grudge Curse

"Very well," Li Changqing took Mu Qingge’s words as mere pleasantries and nodded.

"Then when will you come, Daoist Friend Changqing?" Mu Qingge asked subconsciously.

But after asking this, Mu Qingge was momentarily stunned.

Li Changqing was even more bewildered. Who asks like that?

Xu Muhai and Yin Changli were equally astonished, looking at Mu Qingge.

The Immortal Mu of the Medical King Valley was pursued by countless young talents, the line to propose to her could stretch from the gates of the Mountain Ancient Land to the Cloud Wasteland!

Many came with marriage proposals but were rejected by Mu Qingge. It was unheard of for Mu Qingge to invite someone as a guest and then inquire about when they would arrive.

This is odd.

Li Changqing also felt a bit embarrassed, uncertain of how to respond.

Mu Qingge also felt she had been abrupt and was about to say something to alleviate the awkward situation when suddenly Li Changqing’s pupils contracted, his gaze focused on Mu Qingge’s neck.

"What’s that? Did the Immortal Mu always have it?" Li Changqing asked in surprise.

"What?" Mu Qingge instinctively reached up to touch her neck but felt nothing, so she took out a bronze mirror from her bosom to have a look.

This look was quite enough, for Mu Qingge’s face changed color immediately.

Mu Qingge found a strange mark on her jade-white neck, resembling a tiny baby’s paw.

Or rather, it looked exactly like the paw prints of the Ghost Children they had encountered before.

Mu Qingge rubbed at it, but found it didn’t come off, as if it were branded onto her skin.

"You have one too, Daoist Friend Xu." Li Changqing looked at Xu Muhai, and indeed, Xu Muhai also had one on his neck.

"I have one too?" Xu Muhai frowned deeply.

"No way, do I have one?" Yin Changli asked anxiously.

He quickly tilted his neck for Li Changqing to see.

Sure enough, there was a small Ghost Paw mark on Yin Changli’s neck too.

Upon seeing Li Changqing nod, Yin Changli’s face also changed.

"Do I have one?" Li Changqing quickly tilted his neck for the others to see, but when they saw nothing on Li Changqing’s neck, they all shook their heads.

"What is this thing?"

Relieved that he didn’t have it, Li Changqing was nonetheless curious about what it was.

"Immortal Mu, what do you think?" Xu Muhai, not understanding this much, looked to Mu Qingge, thinking she, being a descendant of the Medical King Valley, should know something about it.

Li Changqing also looked at Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge’s face was still somewhat pale at this moment.

"This is... the Ghost Grudge Curse." Mu Qingge’s eyes were somewhat vacant.

"Ghost Grudge Curse?" Xu Muhai’s eyes widened, obviously having heard of it before. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Only Li Changqing remained calm, waiting for the two to explain it.

But the two remained silent for a long time.

"Master, what is the Ghost Grudge Curse?" Yin Changli asked anxiously, "Can it kill people?"

Li Changqing was very pleased with Yin Changli for asking this.

"The Ghost Grudge Curse originates from the Ghost Race, it’s a secret technique of the Ghost Spirit Race," Mu Qingge explained, "The Ghost Grudge Curse is a curse released at the cost of one’s own life force, and those afflicted with it have a special kind of Ghost Qi concealed within their bodies."

"When this Ghost Qi erupts, it torments people until they wish they were dead."

"In the past, the Ghost Spirit Race used the Ghost Grudge Curse to control people, and now that we are afflicted with it, it indicates that someone can manipulate the Ghost Qi within us to torture us."

Mu Qingge looked gravely at Xu Muhai.

"Rather than having Ghost Children replace us, they used the Ghost Grudge Curse?" Xu Muhai took a deep breath, "It seems these people have a grand scheme."

Mu Qingge nodded, "Do you remember the words of the boy in the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall? He mentioned one name, the Longevity Sect."

"Never heard of it," Xu Muhai shook his head.

"Master, how do we cure this Ghost Grudge Curse?" Yin Changli quickly asked, not wanting to experience the torment Mu Qingge described.

"I don’t know. We need to return to the sect and ask my father," Mu Qingge said. Even though she recognized it as the Ghost Grudge Curse, it had been lost for many years, and there were no records in the Medical King Valley, so she had no idea how to dispel it.

Seeing that even his master didn’t know, Yin Changli was nearly in tears.

His path to becoming a Sword Immortal might end before it even began.

As they spoke, Xu Muhai seemed unwell. He frowned, the small mark on his neck started spreading, emitting black Ghost Qi.

"Peak Master Xu." Li Changqing was startled by this scene.

Xu Muhai suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he began trembling uncontrollably, a low growl of pain escaping his throat.

Strong as Xu Muhai was, his willpower extraordinarily strong, even so, he was now collapsing.

"Daoist Friend Xu!" Mu Qingge waved her hand, launching several silver needles that pierced different acupuncture points on Xu Muhai’s body.

This was meant to help Xu Muhai relieve pain.

But even after the silver needles pierced his acupuncture points, Xu Muhai’s symptoms did not alleviate at all.

"Ah!!"

Xu Muhai cried out in agony and then suddenly, as if possessed, got up and dashed towards the distant stone wall.

Bang!

A dull thud, as Xu Muhai hit his head hard against the wall, blood streaming down, he was clearly tormented to the extreme by the Ghost Qi enveloping him.

"Oh my god!" Yin Changli exclaimed, "Is it that painful?"

What if the same happened to him?

Seeing Xu Muhai about to bash his head again, Li Changqing feared he would kill himself, so he quickly used a restraining technique, forcibly immobilizing Xu Muhai.

"Watch him," Li Changqing said, then the Longevity Wood behind him flew over.

Li Changqing took out some tools and started carving.

At that moment, Xu Muhai’s entire body was taut with pain, seemingly on the verge of mental collapse.

Mu Qingge herself tried various methods to help relieve Xu Muhai’s suffering.

But she found that her medical skills were completely ineffective against the Ghost Grudge Curse, leaving even this proud heir of the Medical King Valley helpless.

After a quarter of an hour, a small carved Buddha appeared in Li Changqing’s hands.

This wooden Buddha held a monk’s staff, with a Spirit Beast beneath its feet, one no one had ever seen before.

Li Changqing requested a thread from Mu Qingge, strung the Buddha on it, and hung it around Xu Muhai’s neck.

In an instant, the Ghost Qi on Xu Muhai receded like a tide.

Xu Muhai collapsed to the ground, drenched in sweat.

The previous agony had drained his will, and though he was no longer in pain, he couldn’t speak for a long time, utterly exhausted.

"Looks like it worked."

Li Changqing had carved a small statue of the Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Only with it hung on Xu Muhai’s neck was the Ghost Qi suppressed.
