“You actually know about the Bizarre Tamers?!” Zhao Heshan looked at Mu
Xuan in surprise. Then, he shook his head and said, “You’re too old. The various sects won’t accept you. Only the Pure Night Division established by the
Imperial Court has a chance!”
“The Pure Night Division established by the Imperial Court? I understand!” Mu Xuan nodded slightly. He obtained this information from Zhao Heshan in a very timely manner, saving him the trouble of asking around.
Zhao Heshan thought for a moment and sighed. “Little Brother, it’s not that I want to say this, but the Bizarre Manipulator job is too dangerous. It’s best not to enter if possible!”
Mu Xuan said calmly, “I just want to control my fate!”
Zhao Heshan’s entire body trembled. He thought of himself and the Zhao
Family Village. If not for the fact that he had become a level 1 Bizarre Manipulator, he would probably have died long ago.
To a certain extent, becoming a Bizarre Manipulator was indeed controlling his own fate!
Zhao Heshan left with the dog ghost’s corpse. Perhaps it was because his answer just now was too simple, but before he left, he even gave Mu Xuan a few taels of silver.
At about eight in the morning, Mu Xuan heard cries coming from the Zhao Family Village. Then, he saw a group of people wearing mourning clothes and carrying a few corpses out. In the end, they arrived at a wasteland and actually prepared to be cremated.
Mu Xuan asked around in the crowd for a while before understanding that four people from the Zhao Family Village had died last night when the evil spirits attacked the village. Among them was even Zhao Dahu, the village guard captain.
“The martial artists of this world are too weak…” Mu Xuan was immediately speechless. He had seen it clearly last night. Zhao Dahu had only been sent flying by the hundred-year-old tree. He didn’t expect him to die so easily.
“Looks like I have to become a Bizarre Manipulator as soon as possible!” Mu Xuan thought to himself and decided to immediately go to the nearby Shangtang Town to find a way to join the Pure Night Division.
After spending a tael of silver to buy some dry food from the villagers of the Zhao Family Village, Mu Xuan set off.
According to the guidance of the villagers of the Zhao Family Village, from the Zhao Family Village, one had to pass through three villages and a ten-kilometer-long road along the dirt road to reach Shangtang Town.
The dangers along the way were mainly wild beasts and robbers. As for evil spirits, they would only appear at night.
It was also because of this that the ordinary people of this world could still survive…
Around two to three in the afternoon, Mu Xuan rushed to Shangtang Town. Along the way, other than encountering a group of farmers who were also on their way, he didn’t encounter any living people. This disappointed Mu Xuan and he thought that he still needed to spend some effort.
However, after stepping into Shangtang Town, Mu Xuan clearly felt a few malicious gazes. They were actually a few hooligans. Clearly, this was the legendary gang!
Mu Xuan ignored it. His top priority was to find the Pure Night Bureau first. In the end, he only found out after asking that there was only an old night guard in Shangtang Town. It was said that he was only a level 1 martial artist.
The Night Watchmen were the lowest-level members of the Pure Night Division. They were mainly in charge of cleaning up the battlefield and acting as cannon fodder. It could be said that they had no future.
Only those called the Demon Punishing Guard could be considered elite members of the Night Punishing Division. Their benefits and status were superior to others, and they were very good.
However, if one wanted to become a Demon Punishing Guard, they first had to become a Bizarre Manipulator or a seventh-grade martial artist. Alright, martial artists had no status.
Mu Xuan thought for a moment and decided that it was more reliable to ask directly.
Liu Cheng was 45 years old this year and had already stayed in the Pure Night Division for a full 20 years. It could be said that he had really burned through batch after batch of night guards. He could be said to be the most experienced person among the night guards. He had almost established the longest lifespan record of the night guards!
The reason why Liu Cheng could obtain this honor was because he had always been loyal and never caused trouble. He had been a night watchman obediently and stayed in Shangtang Town, which had no future, for 19 years!
“Young man, you want to join the Pure Night Division?” Liu Cheng looked at the young man in front of him. This young man called Mu Xuan wasn’t polite at all. The first thing he asked was the situation of the Pure Night Division. He didn’t know what gifts he had brought, but it was a bad review.
“Yes, Old Liu.” Mu Xuan smiled and nodded, but he complained crazily in his heart. What old night guard? Have you f*cking seen an old night guard who’s a third-grade Bizzare Manipulator?!
That’s right. Through the information panel, Mu Xuan discovered that this ordinary-looking old night guard in front of him was already a level 6 Bizarre Tamer. Could it be that he was the legendary big shot?!
[Liu Cheng]
Species: Human
Level: Level 6 Bizzare Manipulator
Bizarre Taming: Splitting Shadow Bizarre, Striking More Bizarre, Nine-Lives Cat Bizarre
Cultivation Technique: Divine Strange Meditation Technique
Item: Bizarre Ring, Bizarre Oil Lantern, Mysterious Bizarre Human Skin
Liu Cheng naturally didn’t know that Mu Xuan had already seen through him. He chuckled and said, “It’s not easy to join the Pure Night Division. If you can’t sign a blood contract with the evil spirit, you can only be like the old man and be an ordinary old night watchman. You can’t even get a wife…”
Mu Xuan secretly rolled his eyes. Then, his gaze was warm as he said, “Elder Liu, I, Mu Xuan, am not afraid of evil spirits. Please teach me how to join the
Pure Night Division!”
Liu Cheng looked at Mu Xuan. The more he looked at him, the closer he felt. He immediately chuckled and said, “Forget it, I’ll write a letter and let you go to Lin’an City to participate in the assessment. If you really pass the assessment and become a Bizzare Manipulator, I can be considered to have made a contribution to the Pure Night Division!”
Soon, Liu Cheng wrote a recommendation letter for Mu Xuan and handed it to him. After Mu Xuan left, Liu Cheng suddenly reacted. “Strange, when did I become such a warm-hearted person?!”
“No, it’s that kid’s problem?! No, no, I saw it very clearly. That’s an ordinary
young man…”
“Looks like I, Liu Cheng, am also old…”
Mu Xuan, who had left Liu Cheng’s house, chuckled. Although he was heavily injured and even his beast had fallen into a deep sleep, he still recovered a little strength. He could slightly activate the divine power [Mind Insight] to affect Liu Cheng’s senses and open a recommendation letter.
However, with Mu Xuan’s current situation, he could only do this much.
“Next, it’s time to gather funds and head to Lin’an City!” Mu Xuan thought to himself. Just as he was thinking about how to safely gather funds, two figures sandwiched him in the middle.
“Friend, our boss invites you!” The thin bamboo pole young man in front said with a smile, but he had already taken out a dagger.
Mu Xuan raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Alright, lead the way!”
He had just said that he didn’t have any money, but didn’t this money come knocking on his door?!
Soon, Mu Xuan followed the two of them through many twists and turns and arrived at a somewhat dilapidated courtyard. He saw the other party’s so-called boss. To Mu Xuan’s surprise, the other party was actually a level 1 Bizzare Manipulator!
[Zhang Sanzi]
Species: Human
Level: Level 1 Bizarre Manipulator
Bizarre Control: Whip Bizarre
Cultivation Method: None
Mu Xuan revealed a trace of seriousness. Yes, just a trace. It wasn’t like he hadn’t killed evil spirits before. He was really not afraid of a mere level 1
Bizzare Manipulator!
“Why are you looking for me?” Mu Xuan asked directly.
Zhang Sanzenz looked to be in his thirties. His face was a little Dale, and his expression was cold.. “What’s your relationship with Liu Cheng?!”
