I am a coroner, and I have some knowledge of martial arts!

Seventh-grade Great Perfection.

Even if Wang Chuang's cultivation level was inflated, one-tenth of it was still quite a lot.

It's such a pity that it was burned to ashes by Long Yujun.

Long Yujun didn't speak, but just looked at him quietly.

Su Wuchen felt a chill run down his spine: "Miss Long, we have no past grievances or present enmity, and I even helped you find your body. Shouldn't we be able to talk calmly?"

Long Yujun nodded. "Go on."

Seeing that Long Yujun was willing to reason with him, Su Wuchen breathed a sigh of relief and pointed to the flame pattern on his ribs, "You left this, didn't you?"

Long Yujun did not refute.

Su Wuchen continued, "When Elder Wu Jian was chasing you, you sensed something was wrong and hid on my person?"

I guess so.

"Can we remove this now?"

Long Yujun raised the lantern in his hand, and the flame pattern that was originally engraved on Su Wuchen's waist flew out, turned into a ball of flame, and disappeared into the lantern.

This scene filled Su Wuchen with curiosity. "What kind of flame is this? Why is it so strange?"

"A guiding light."

"A guiding light?"

Su Wuchen asked in surprise, "Is it a ritual implement like a prayer wheel?"

Long Yujun shook his head. "Yes and no. This item was made by the boatman. Only by holding the guiding lantern can one cross the River of Oblivion."

"???"

Can't understand.

I don't understand at all.

Su Wuchen was completely confused. "Could you say something I can understand?"

Long Yujun: "Your cultivation is too shallow now. Although you have broken through the limit of martial arts, you are only at the early stage of the seventh rank. Once your cultivation reaches the level of an item or above, you will gradually come into contact with the secrets of this world."

You're a riddle teller, aren't you?

Su Wuchen rolled his eyes.

This visit to Su Wuming was not without its rewards.

At least he knew that Su Wuming was cultivating diligently and had reached the eighth rank. He also obtained one-tenth of the power from the person killed by Long Yujun and successfully advanced to the early stage of the seventh rank.

Although the process was somewhat tortuous, the result was ultimately good.

"Well, I should head back to Jiangcheng now. Shall we part ways here?"

Su Wuchen cupped his hands in greeting, "May our friendship remain unchanged, and may our friendship continue to flow. I hope that when we meet next time, you won't be so startled or frightening."

Long Yujun nodded. "I should go too."

"...?"

A sudden unease rose in Su Wuchen's heart. "You wouldn't be planning to travel with me, would you?"

"Exactly."

"..."

Su Wuchen fell silent instantly.

With a suspected fourth-grade ghost cultivator by his side, he was undoubtedly a powerful helper, but Su Wuchen felt something was strange.

She had already dealt with Long Yujun's grievances herself, but now she wanted to accompany him.

"Don't overthink it, only you can find a boatman right now."

"Boatman?"

Su Wuchen scratched his forehead. "You're not talking about the boatman who carried us across the river before, are you?"

"right."

Long Yujun nodded. "He left his mark on you."

Su Wuchen: "???"

That seemingly kind boatman is also a top-notch expert?

"What marks?"

"To protect you."

Long Yujun said calmly, "He was responsible for seeing off the dead, but you chartered his boat. And because of the appearance of the wandering soul and me, he left traces while you were unconscious to ensure that I would not hurt you."

"..."

Su Wuchen was speechless. "So, what I did before was a bit like repaying kindness with enmity?"

Long Yujun: "Ignorance is no excuse."

Su Wuchen: "..."

Your words make me feel even more ashamed.

Su Wuchen got up and left, heading towards Dragon City.

Long Yujun remained silent, calmly holding the lantern and following behind Su Wuchen, his shadow blurred.

……

"Thank you so much for your help."

"It was my mistake. This is just a small token of my appreciation. Please have some tea with me, brothers. I'm so sorry."

After Su Wuchen awkwardly led the boatman out of the Longcheng government office, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, but when he looked at the boatman to the side, he felt something was off.

This old man is truly a top-notch master whose appearance doesn't lie.

The key is...

It doesn't look like it at all!

If he were truly a master, why would he be trapped by a mere government office?

"Grandpa, let's go."

Su Wuchen said with a smile, "I misunderstood you before..."

"Have you witnessed how formidable she is?"

The boatman remained calm, showing no sign of anger at being locked up in the yamen.

Su Wuchen nodded. "It's terrifying."

The boatman said, "Those who can emerge from the River of Oblivion are no ordinary people."

Su Wuchen lowered his voice slightly out of curiosity, "Grandpa, what exactly is this River of Oblivion you're talking about?"

"It is the River of Oblivion."

"The River of Oblivion that leads to the Land of Slumber?"

Su Wuchen was stunned. "Isn't that the legendary river that has long since disappeared?"

Legend has it that before the Abyss was destroyed, it was surrounded by nine stars.

One of the stars is the so-called Land of Sleep, the place of the underworld, where all ghost cultivators cultivate.

When a mortal dies, a messenger will take him by boat to the place of slumber.

But when the Abyss was destroyed, the River of Oblivion also disappeared without a trace. How could Lord Longyu possibly enter or leave the River of Oblivion?

"It has disappeared, but it hasn't completely disappeared."

The boatman sighed, "Although the Land of Sleep is isolated from the Abyss, there are still some places in the world where we can travel together, but they are extremely hidden."

"Now that the secret realms are opening up one after another, the River of Oblivion is slowly recovering."

"She didn't know what methods she used to awaken from her slumber, and then stepped into the River of Oblivion."

Gee tut.

Su Wuchen smacked his lips.

So, Long Yu-jun is quite lucky?

First, he was trapped in the Soul-Suppressing Coffin by Chen Nansheng, and his soul was sent to the Land of Sleep. However, he somehow managed to break free, find the River of Oblivion, and arrive at the Abyss Ruins.

"etc."

Su Wuchen frowned and said, "You're the one responsible for transporting wandering souls, so you're not going to do anything about her escaping from the Land of Sleep..."

Boatman: "We can't beat them."

Su Wuchen: "..."

Ok.

Su Wuchen had nothing to say.

A powerful ghost cultivator has escaped from the land of slumber. The boatmen responsible for transporting wandering souls are no match for her. What should they do?

Naturally, I did as Long Yu-jun instructed.

"Why did she send you to see me?"

"I don't know."

Su Wuchen shook his head. "She said she wants to leave with me."

The boatman's eyes widened immediately as he looked behind Su Wuchen. "Are you crazy?"

"I'm not crazy."

I wasn't talking about you.

The boatman glared at Su Wuchen with annoyance and continued, "Miss, you've already escaped from the Land of Slumber, what are you going back for?"

"I'm just a lowly helmsman, not some kind of 'Salvation Lord,' Captain. I have no way of sending you back!"
