Chapter 290: Geomantic Compa.s.s
When Ye Luo saw this, he gritted his teeth.
This disciple of his was really strange. In the past, there were girls clinging to his side every day, but he had never given them any looks.
At that time, he had thought that his disciple liked men.
He did not expect a fiancée to appear after not seeing him for a few years. Moreover, her ident.i.ty was so impressive.
When the group reached the entrance of Pure Snow Observatory, the State Minister wanted to summon his lotus mount, but was stopped by Chu Sihan.
“If we make a high-profile entrance, we might alarm the demons in the suburbs. Let’s prepare the carriage.”
The State Minister thought about it and felt that it made sense.
Hence, he returned to Pure Snow Observatory and got someone to prepare a carriage.
The four of them rode the carriage to the suburbs.
Five people lit up the lanterns on the street today. The road was a bit dark, and only the two lanterns on the carriage emitted a dim light.
Ye Luo was forced to be the coachman and felt helpless.
He had no choice. Who asked him to have the lowest status here?
In terms of background, his disciple was definitely ranked first. Then, it was Lu Sheng, the State Minister, and then him.
This bitter ident.i.ty forced him to accept his fate.
“Yu~”
The carriage stopped abruptly when it reached the city gate.
“The city gate is closed!”
Ye Luo’s gloomy voice traveled into the carriage.
The State Minister lifted the curtain and took a look. He said indifferently, “Let’s fly out.”
Now that there were so many dangers, it must be Dali Temple who requested for the city gate to be closed.
However, if those demons wanted to enter, the closed gate would not be able to stop them.
After abandoning the carriage, the four of them flew out of the city wall.
Today, this huge capital was as cold as a ghost town.
Even the guards were gone.
Humans would always fear the unknown. This was even more terrifying than war.
The reason for that was because those demons were like illusory objects to them. They simply couldn’t resist them.
After leaving the city, they were still a distance away from the suburbs.
After the four of them walked halfway, Ye Luo suddenly frowned and complained. “Who knows where those demons are gathered in such a big suburb?”
When Lu Sheng heard that, she suddenly thought of something.
She took out something from the s.p.a.ce Bracelet.
Chu Sihan looked over and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Lu Sheng was holding a geomantic compa.s.s.
“With this, we’ll definitely be able to find them.”
She had taken this from her master’s warehouse in her previous life. She had not tried looking for demons yet, but it was quite accurate for her to find ghosts.
Demons and ghosts were evil beings. This should be effective.
“What’s this?”
Ye Luo asked as he looked at the geomantic compa.s.s.
Lu Sheng explained, “This is a geomantic compa.s.s. It’s used to find evil beings.”
If Ye Luo had not said that they could not find the whereabouts of those demons, she would have forgotten about this.
“Will this work?”
Ye Luo expressed his doubts.
“We’ll know if it’s useful or not after we try.”
After speaking, Lu Sheng held the geomantic compa.s.s in her hand and continued walking.
When they entered a forest, the Heavenly Lake in the geomantic compa.s.s in her hand suddenly became chaotic.
It pointed east, west, south, and north.
Lu Sheng frowned slightly. She knocked on the geomantic compa.s.s twice, but the Heavenly Lake inside was still spinning.
“Is this thing useless?” Ye Luo questioned.
Chu Sihan said lightly, “Those demons are in the forest here. There are demons in all four directions. That’s why the geomantic compa.s.s is in chaos.”
Lu Sheng was enlightened. “No wonder!”
She thought that this thing had not been used for too long, which was why it was not accurate. It turned out that there were demons everywhere.
“Miss Lu, your blood is the most attractive to demons.”
The State Minister, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke.
