“Ah, there’s a ghost, Grandpa, come save me…” Lin Shutong almost instantly dropped Tongtong from her arms, and then her hands instantly covered her eyes.

Because an elderly ghost, with a skull head, was clawing her way towards her with bared teeth and flailing arms.

The pale skull bore a mess of hair, and from the eye sockets shone a deep red light. A bone-white claw, like a hook, reached out for Lin Shutong’s face.

Before it reached her, Lin Shutong felt a piercingly cold air assaulting her face, the bony hand adorned with sharp, dagger-like nails.

A foul stench poured from the rows of teeth in the skull, nearly suffocating Lin Shutong.

Just moments ago, Lin Shutong was convinced that there were no such things as ghosts and goblins in the world, but now the appearance of this female skeleton shattered her worldview on the spot.

“How dare you, malevolent spirit, to show off your slight skills before an expert!” Xu Fan uttered sharply, flicking a flame from his finger that shot towards the female skeleton.

If the skeleton dared to approach Lin Shutong even slightly, it would come into contact with the flames of the Samadhi True Fire shot from Xu Fan’s fingertips.

In a moment, those flames could reduce it from bone to ashes.

Almost instantly, the skeleton sister reverted to a puddle of black mist and hastily retreated from around Lin Shutong, drifting into a corner of the room.

Xu Fan didn’t bother with the fleeing black mist but gently grasped Elder Sun’s chin, prying his mouth open.

The Jade Gourd that Xu Fan had placed in his mouth was now revealed.

Using his ability to control objects, Xu Fan gently levitated the Jade Gourd in mid-air.

To the others watching, it seemed as if the Jade Gourd from Elder Sun’s mouth flew up into the air by itself, a heart-stopping spectacle.

At this moment, the Jade Gourd was no longer the immaculate white it had been when first placed inside, now showing threads of dark energy on its surface, identical to the black mist that had formed the skeleton sister.

“Thinking of running away, did you ask me?” Xu Fan pointed with his finger at the floating Jade Gourd and prodded it.

Following Xu Fan’s gesture, a stream of Spiritual Energy struck the Jade Gourd from afar, and the small date-sized gourd began spinning in mid-air, glowing with a dazzling white light under the force of Xu Fan’s pointed finger.

As the gourd spun, wisps of black mist started to emerge from its mouth, and the large mass of black mist hiding in the corner of the room, as if out of control, slowly floated towards the spinning Jade Gourd in the air.

“Get in here!” Xu Fan released another flow of Spiritual Energy toward the Jade Gourd, and in an instant, it seemed to swell several times in size, increasing its suction dramatically. The black mist that was just barely resisting the pull of the gourd was now struggling, then inch by inch, it moved towards the mass of black mist.

“Still trying to escape? I think you’ve had enough!” Xu Fan waved his hand, and from his right hand’s five fingers sprouted flames of Samadhi True Fire just like before.

With a mere flick of Xu Fan’s right hand, the five small flames could instantly burst towards the black mist.

Even the most cunning black fog couldn’t escape being burnt to ashes by Xu Fan.

Confronted with the five flames in Xu Fan’s hand, the black fog genuinely cowered, no longer daring to resist stubbornly. With no obstacles remaining, the suction from the Jade Gourd was extremely strong; in just a second or two, it drew the largest mass of black fog inside.

At this moment, the gourd also stopped spinning and obediently landed in Xu Fan’s hand. Although it had been spotlessly white when first taken out, it now looked significantly darker, no longer resembling white jade. Its color was more akin to that of red or black jade.

“Grandpa, I was so scared just now. There was a skeleton trying to kill me—it was horrifying. To think there would be ghosts in broad daylight!” Lin Shutong said to Lin Yaoshi with palpable fear after seeing Xu Fan use the treasured gourd to capture the mischievous evil spirit.

“You should thank Mr. Xu. If it weren’t for him, that ghost would have claimed you by now. Look, even Elder Sun, such a robust martial artist, couldn’t withstand that evil spirit. If it had been you, a quick cure wouldn’t have been possible,” Elder Lin took this opportunity to chide Lin Shutong.

“I’m sorry, Master Xu, I misunderstood you just now. Please accept my apology! I never knew such disgusting things as ghosts really existed in this world!” Lin Shutong said to Xu Fan, still shaken.

“What ghosts? It’s all about deceiving oneself. You have to believe in science,” Xu Fan picked up the Jade Gourd and slowly said to Lin Shutong.

“No, no, I really saw it with my own eyes just now. I was almost scared to death…” Lin Shutong said, patting her chest with an expression of fright.

“Haha…” Xu Fan laughed and said nothing further.

Lin Shutong’s skepticism hardly mattered to Xu Fan, but today’s situation was unusual, and he had to demonstrate his abilities. Otherwise, Elder Sun’s condition would only have worsened.

At that time, a light cough came from the bed.

Upon hearing the cough, Lin Yaoshi and Sun Lihua immediately looked towards Elder Sun lying on the bed.

“Old Sun, how are you feeling?” Elder Lin approached the bed and asked Elder Sun.

“I feel terribly weak; I can barely move…” Elder Sun, lying on the sickbed, replied weakly to Lin Yaoshi.

“Haha, don’t worry. The Master Xu I’ve brought for you can not only find the root of your illness but also help you recover ahead of time!” Lin Yaoshi recalled Xu Fan’s words and spoke reassuringly to Elder Sun.

“What? You mean I can recover ahead of schedule? My…” Elder Sun was initially shocked at Lin Yaoshi’s words, then joy quickly spread across his face.

“Old Sun, let me introduce you. This young friend here is the very Master Xu Fan who just treated your illness. Don’t be fooled by his young age; he’s actually an incredibly formidable person and also a martial artist.”

“Master Xu, I must thank you properly!” Elder Sun attempted to force himself to stand but, due to his extreme weakness, he collapsed back onto the bed before he could get up.

“Master Xu, I really don’t have the strength to get up right now, or else, for this life-saving grace, I would definitely express my gratitude with a bow. Thank you for pulling me back from the brink of death,” the old master of the Sun Family said to Xu Fan, sounding somewhat feeble.

“It’s nothing. Now that the evil spirit harming your health has been captured by me, all that’s left is for you to take your medicine!” Xu Fan said indifferently.
