The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop

Chapter 794 - 63: Heavenly Master and the Former Slacker 63

The other judges watched remotely. For this competition, numerous surveillance cameras were installed in the abandoned hospital, along with drone filming.

After getting off the bus, Cui Wenyan stood at the entrance and looked inside, furrowing his brows. The dark aura here is too intense. Is the Heavenly Master Association trying to use this competition to clear the hospital of vengeful ghosts?

Yan Qing trotted to Cui Wenyan’s side, "Cui Wenyan, you’re the youngest ghost hunter in this competition. Come with me, I’ll protect you."

Cui Wenyan glanced at the enthusiastic Yan Qing and nodded.

...

A group of ghost hunters and judges gathered in a hall, watching the numerous screens in front of them. Each screen displayed footage from the surveillance cameras, making it convenient for the judges to score. Some ghost hunters stayed in the bus parked at the hospital entrance, ready for nearby rescue if accidents occurred.

The Great Elder watched the screen of his silly disciple talking to Cui Wenyan, chuckled embarrassingly, and turned to Tianmiao, "Miss Tianmiao, apologies, my foolish disciple meant well." As if Miss Tianmiao’s disciple needed protection from this silly kid!

"No worries." Tianmiao smiled, not minding.

In the hall, Ma Dong, Wu Zhongyuan, and Zhou Zhenghao were observing, noticing the elders carefully speaking to Tianmiao. Their curiosity grew. Who is this young woman that even these esteemed figures are speaking so pleasantly to her?

Indeed, their expressions are flattering.

Even the fiery Second Elder, who feared neither heaven nor earth, was speaking to Tianmiao in a gentle tone. The Fourth Elder, who rarely smiled throughout the year, had a face blooming like a flower.

"Am I seeing things?" Wu Zhongyuan touched his nose, "Has the Fourth Elder been possessed?"

"We’re ghost hunters, not cultivators. Where would possession come from?" Ma Dong retorted, "It’s more likely they’ve been bewitched, right?"

"I advise you not to talk poorly about the elders behind their backs. Though they’re old, they’re very healthy with excellent hearing." Zhou Zhenghao warned.

"Alright, let’s not talk about that. Isn’t Cui Wenyan unqualified? How did she become a ghost hunter?" Wu Zhongyuan asked, puzzled.

"Want to know? Go ask yourself. But I suggest you apologize first." Zhou Zhenghao replied crossly.

Wu Zhongyuan’s expression changed, scratching his head, and said apologetically, "I was too anxious then. I was afraid she wouldn’t give it to me, so I thought to snatch it first. I had prepared compensation, had even arranged for a university to directly admit her post-graduation."

"Yet she doesn’t care for your compensation. That bracelet was a keepsake from her parents. You both need to change your ways. One always considers the bigger picture but also must account for personal feelings, the other is rash and acts on impulse." Zhou Zhenghao stared at the screen, which displayed young ghost hunters stepping into the abandoned hospital.

"Understood, I’ll try. But I’m quite old, changing my ways is tough. I’ve asked my disciple to look after Cui Wenyan." Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand dismissively.

"I’ve also asked my disciple and junior apprentice to keep an eye on her. Cui Wenyan just became a ghost hunter, her abilities have yet to be strong." Ma Dong added.
