How did a high-ranking Celestial Master teach such a young Spirit Master? Oh, perhaps the rank is even higher.
When my master passed away, he was at the Spirit Master Realm. Sang Qingxiao corrected me, saying that other Demon Catchers usually take at least three to five months to reach the entry-level Earth Master stage, while I achieved it in just half a tea's worth of time.
I have always been exceptionally gifted, and my master's abilities were indeed insufficient to teach me; ordinary training methods were too simple for me. Fortunately, I had some fortunate encounters and whimsically created some Spells of my own. They were sufficient for my needs.
Then, Zhong Kui, your surname is Zhong; why do you carry the surname Sang? There aren't many with the surname Sang.
Not just few; after the destruction of Prince Jing's Residence, many with the surname Sang changed their names out of fear of being implicated. It has only been in recent years that some have gradually reverted to the name.
Demon Catchers often dabble in fate and numerology. After my master went into seclusion, he studied this field and calculated that he would have no offspring, so he didn't let me take his surname.
I was found in a mulberry grove at dawn on a clear day, so I was named Sang Qingxiao.
Are you satisfied with my answer, Yongxin Marquis? Is there anything else you wish to inquire about?
After speaking, I mumbled a few words. Prince Jing's Residence was dealt with over a decade ago; how is it that after all these years, its remnants still hold such power that even mentioning the name Sang is taboo?
I am just curious about Miss Sang.
You are more curious about that Huang Hai, aren't you? He is indeed quite bothersome. Do you want me to help you deal with him?
Miss Sang seems to have gotten it wrong.
I haven't gotten it wrong. The Demon Catching Sect respects strength; this is not an empty statement. Even the ancestors of the Huang Family must treat me politely in public, let alone Huang Hai himself.
As for your side, if he can use demons to harm you once, he can do it again. Rather than passively defending yourself, it would be better to take the initiative.
What strategies does Miss Sang have?
Qilang told me earlier that you were handed a cold case. Coincidentally, I know some clues about it.
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiaomian connected it with our previous conversation and asked the crucial question: Is Huang Hai related to this cold case?
Sang Qingxiao smiled as she discussed the case. You are looking into that theft case, right?
Over the past decade in Jingjing City, various high-ranking officials and wealthy merchants have reported losses of varying degrees. The stolen items mostly came from deep within their storerooms and were often gold and silver trinkets—nothing too substantial—so no one noticed for a long time.
It wasn't until a year ago when Duke Liang's Residence's Matriarch fell seriously ill and wanted to retrieve medicinal herbs from her storeroom that she discovered they had been stolen. When Duke's Residence reported it, they also issued a bounty notice, igniting enthusiasm throughout the city to search for the herbs.
During this search, many families discovered their own valuables missing as well. The Capital of Jingzhao spent a month investigating and gathering evidence based on the modus operandi and ultimately concluded that it was either one person or one group responsible.
However, due to the long time span and almost complete lack of evidence regarding the stolen items—which were relatively minor compared to everything else—people eventually stopped bringing it up after some initial commotion.
Only the Duke Liang's Residence harbored a grudge against the Matriarch for nearly causing a death, along with the officials from the Capital of Jingzhao. Over the past year, several reports of lost valuables had been filed, yet no leads emerged, which was quite frustrating.
The time it took to acquire that herb urgently needed by the Matriarch was merely three months, and during those three months, Ancestor Huang had been on the verge of mourning but suddenly recovered.
Are you suggesting that Ancestor Huang consumed that herb? Qi Xiaomian asked.
Isn't it a coincidence?
Coincidence does not equal evidence. Qi Xiaomian knew Sang Qingxiao still had more to say.
Did you know that Huang Hai has a Spirit Familiar that is a hamster?
Qi Xiaomian questioned, puzzled. Isn't his Spirit Familiar an eagle? Moreover, I heard that a Demon Catcher can only have one Spirit Familiar at a time?
Who told you that? Sang Qingxiao laughed. The number of Spirit Familiars a Demon Catcher has is related to their strength; many ordinary Demon Catchers possess two or more spirits. One may be strong while the others are relatively weaker, often serving as support types.
