At around twilight, I was hungry. I went to the street to have some food. 

B

efore I entered the hotel, I bumped into a man rushing out. All the food I

 had

 brought back for 

Senior Shu

was

 scatter

ed

 on the ground. 

I was mad, but the man looked as though he had something very urgent to do. He didn’t even say sorry

 and left

. 

“Where do you think you’re running to?!”

Senior Shu

 rushed downstairs. When he saw me, he was surprised

. Then, he angrily yelled,

 “Kid, after him! Hurry up!”

I got it now. That man 

was a possible suspect

. I gritted my teeth 

and

 chased after him. 

Senior Shu

, is he the 

taming master

?” I asked while running. 

When I bumped into him 

on the

 patio, I saw his face. Although he didn’t have a nice appearance, he didn’t give me 

a

 brutal feeling. In short, he didn’t look like a 

taming master

 to me. 

Senior Shu

 wore a dark face

. His 

eyes 

kept

 tabs 

on

 the man running ahead of us. 

The sky was dark now

, and t

here weren’t many people on the street to the suburbs. I felt something was strange

.

I frowned and asked, “Senior Shu

, don

’t

 you feel that man’s strange?”

“

Ah?

” 

Senior Shu

grunted

 skeptically. He halted. The other man also halted. He looked as though he was waiting for us.

I finally got it. 

“Senior Shu

, he seems to 

be luring

 us somewhere! We didn’t bring anything with us. If we follow him, I’m afraid it won’t be safe.”

While talking, 

I got a message on my phone.

 I read the message and my heart sank. Instinctively, I clenched my fists. 

“What happened?”

“Baji said that another tomb 

on

 the mountain has been robbed!” I gritted my teeth. 

Senior Shu

 looked surprised. Then, he said resolutely, “We should get that man first.”

I nodded. Then, while 

Senior Shu

 was running ahead of me, I discreetly read the spell to beckon a spirit. Immediately, I asked the little ghost I

’d invited 

to carry me away from this place. 

It wasn’t Baji who had sent me the message. It was 

from Senior Shu

. He didn’t see me anywhere when he woke up, so he texted me to ask me where I was. 

After receiving the text, I 

understood the situation

. The 

Senior Shu

 in front of me was fake. The 

taming master

 had impersonated him, and the despicable-looking man that was trying to lure me was 

a

 ghost or 

a

 low-ranking corpse the 

taming master

 was keeping.

His moves were stiff

. W

hen he ran, his limbs didn’t coordinate well. Previously, I 

was in a rush, 

so I didn’t 

notice

 these features. 

It wouldn’t be practical to send 

Senior Shu

 a text now. That

 was

 why I 

laid

 all of my 

hopes

on

 a random wild ghost. 

Shortly

 after I read the spell, a little ghost came and took me away. 

Once Senior Shu

’s figure disappeared from the

view, I sighed in relief. 

But then, I found something was wrong. At this speed, it would take this little ghost only five minutes to take me back to the hotel. However, 

we’

d been moving for twenty minutes already, and it 

hadn’t stopped

. I smelled danger here. I grabbed the talismans in my pocket

 and 

coldly 

shouted

, “Where do you want to take me?” 

As soon as I said that, the ghost turned to me. I finally saw its face. This ghost was wearing traditional Burmese clothes and had a few piercing studs on his brows. 

He

 was a Burmese ghost. 

I suddenly recognized that

 the ghost I had beckoned was probably prepared by

 the 

taming master

. 

Senior Shu

 had told me that this 

taming master

 had the taming skills of the masters from the South Sea.  

The South Sea was the old collective name for Vietnam, Myanmar, and the other Southeast Asian countries. As this ghost was wearing Burmese clothes, the 

taming master

 was 

clearly

 from Myanmar. 

I was enraged. I took out a talisman and palmed it on the ghost. The ghost shivered then slowed down. 

Before I could heave a sigh of relief, the ghost 

became crazy. It started moving 

faster and faster. I tried a few more

 times 

and 

ended up using all of my

 talismans

. Yet,

 the ghost was still running.

It seemed the 

taming master

 wanted to kill me tonight! I gave up 

struggling as 

I needed to save my energy. 

The only weapon

s 

I had now that could expel the evil spirit w

ere

 the blood 

from

 the tip of my tongue and my fingers. And, I could invite some 

immortals

. In 

a

 critical moment, I could invite Lu Dongbin to assist me. 

Half an hour later, the ghost finally stopped. Before I could land safely, the ghost fled. I fell from a height of two or three meters in midair. My back hit a rock. My throat felt 

hot,

 and I spat out a mouthful of blood. 

I endured the pain 

in

 my back and got up. I looked around and found myself in the middle of the playground 

in

 an abandoned school. 

In front of me was a row of seriously damaged classrooms. The building had three floors, and the 

red-painted

 slogan was still visible. 

T

he foot of the building 

was

 covered with grass while the roof was rickety with rusted steel pipes. The entire school 

looked

 pitch black except for the last room 

on

 the first floor which had flickering 

candlelight

. 

The 

taming master

’s in there!

I turned and saw that the gate of the school was also in that direction. Without thinking much, I wanted to seize this chance to run away. 

When I reached the gate, another 

one

 appeared in front of me

, identical to

 the previous one. I took a deep breath

 and 

disbelievingly turned around. 

T

he gate I had just passed through 

turned out to be the

 one b

y the 

classrooms. 

“Damn it!” I cursed and unbuckled my belt

. I pulled it 

out of my trousers and 

held

 it in my hand. With rage, I stormed toward the room with the 

candlelight

. 

Not only 

could the

taming master

 control the tamed corpse, but he could also 

assume

 someone else’s appearance. And now, he was controlling something that looked like an 

illusion

 maze. He sure was intimidating! I knew I had to engage in a fight with him to get out of here. Moreover, that dude 

did not seem to want

 to leave his room. 

When I 

got

 there, I noticed it was an office. I kicked the door open.

A tan-skinned man

 of 

around forty or fifty years old was sitting in the office. The man’s eyes sparkled maliciously 

as

 he 

admired

 something in his hand. I recognized it was a skin mask. 

“Appearance Shifting Technique?” Seeing the real 

taming master

, I blurted 

out instinctively

. 

He nodded, then pointed at a wooden stick next to him

. He spoke with amusement. 

“This is what you have been chasing after.” 

“

You’re quite something, aren’t you?

” I wore a smile on the surface, but I 

quietly

 took a deep breath. He was much tougher than I had imagined. 

The 

taming master

 furiously snarled, “Every profession has its own rule. What do you and that old man 

like so much

 to disturb my business? You even killed my tamed corpses!” 

“Rule?” I sneered and 

said

 with disdain

,

 “You unearthed other people’s

tombs. Did you talk about the rule at that time? Moreover, a foreigner like you is robbing tombs in China. Any Chinese with 

a 

conscience 

w

ouldn’t accept that!” 

I knew this 

taming master

 was intimidating. To avoid 

a

 passive situation, I immediately kicked him as soon as I said that. 

It seemed the 

taming master

 had expected my attack. He swiftly took a step backward and knocked me to the ground. 

“Go die!” His face twisted evilly. He took out a Nepalese saber that was glowing in the light

 and aimed it 

right at my throat!
