In all the years before, Xie Lan had never passed such an order to restrict the evil spirits passing through the ghost city like now. Over time, the number of evil spirits roaming the human realm had grown to a sizable amount.

However, the people of the spiritual association were not simply white-collared workers receiving a monthly pay. Most of them wouldn't allow these evil spirits to cause mayhem but there were some unpreventable disasters.

That was why the workers who dealt with the evil spirits everyday were overjoyed to hear the ghost king promise to send ghosts to capture the evil spirits in the human realm.

No matter how great the wages were, it was still tiring and dangerous to eradicate evil spirits. There was even a risk of dying. If it weren't for the pressure of the responsibility on their shoulders and their loyalty to the country, these divination masters wouldn't take on such a job.

There were too many evil spirits. Even those the ghost city had sent over to deal with them weren't able to catch them all. Meanwhile, those in the capital were troublesome evil spirits which affected the luck of the place. The thick spiritual energy that converged here attracted even more evil demons and spirits who wanted a piece of this meat to further their cultivation.

Originally, when Gu Yan had first come to this world and experienced the matter with the Shen family, he had already prepared to retire and become an upstanding citizen. However, the situation changed too abruptly. Just as he had made up his mind, the people from the spiritual association came knocking on his door, wanting him to be their auspicious charm.

The events that occurred after he arrived in the ghost city were even further from his expectations. He found that his family's Qiuqiu was actually the ghost city's biggest boss and naturally stayed behind. He stayed for a month, cultivating from a false god to a true god in cultivation terms. When he returned to the human realm, he was once again pulled to attend the spiritual convention.

All these were related to the divination master's job scope. His solid plan to retire and become an upstanding citizen was thrown out of the window.

Now, Gu Yan had accepted another job.

"Hui Yun ghosts aren't capable of causing a bloody disaster but this is not true for evil spirits." As the biggest boss of the ghost city, Xie Lan was very clear on every type of spirit. After looking at the job description, he easily found a few similar evil spirits.

He was just a step away from having sufficient power. This bit of time was needed for him to achieve something. However, his beloved was right before his eyes so Xie Lan wasn't in a hurry.

Gu Yan nodded when he heard this. The ghost city was his family's.The bloody and tragic ending that would occur as a result of the gates opening five years later doesn't seem as if it would happen now.

Having averted this disaster, he still needed to stay in this world for a period of time. Gu Yan naturally hoped the ghost city and human realm could have a treaty. Just like now, neither antagonized each other.

He didn't wish for there to be a day where he had to choose a side because he knew he would definitely choose his family's Qiuqiu. Then, many people in the human realm would die...

But humans couldn't control the trajectory of these matters. Just like how Gu Yan, who'd just accepted this job, didn't expect to find himself faced with such choices in the future.

The client was from the influential Lin family in the capital. Comparing them to the Shen family from before, the latter wasn't worth mentioning. It was like a great magician meeting a novice apprentice.
