Chapter 745: Chapter 219: Terrifying Li Yuan, Crushing the Immortal Envoy

Li Yuan said, "We’re moving."

"Sure."

"Aren’t you going to ask where to?"

"Oh, stop nagging, hurry up and pack."

...

...

As it turns out, even if a man has reached the Celestial Soul Second Realm and the Earth Soul First Realm, he still has to do what he needs to do at home.

Li Yuan quickly packed his luggage, then with a large bag on his back, he and Xie Yu went to the bustling market to buy a carriage. He even played the role of the coachman, prancing about with his big hands that once wielded a long blade and tamed wild horses, now only capable of using those eerie powers, cracking the whip with a "pop pop" sound.

The wheel hubs slowly turned, leaving this small town behind.

The flowers bloomed by the roadside, but they weren’t particularly beautiful.

The ground was bumpy, with many places showing signs of excavation. One glance from Li Yuan, he knew it was either foraging for wild vegetables or digging a hole for a makeshift burial.

Ah, the Human World, still the same...

"Hey."

A voice came from inside the carriage.

Li Yuan didn’t respond.

Xie Yu softly said again, "Don’t be sad."

Li Yuan gave a self-mocking smile and responded, "Okay."

Xie Yu darted out like a cat, squeezed into the Imperial Hand Seat next to him, and sat down beside him, saying, "Think about it, you’ve manifested such a towering Golden Body, and your hands still wield the power of an Evil Ghost. That’s really powerful. At least... at least I’ve never seen anyone stronger than you."

"Powerful?"

Li Yuan lifted his head slightly, looking at the sky self-mockingly.

"Of course, it’s powerful!" Xie Yu clenched her small fists to cheer him up.

Li Yuan sighed, "But so what? They’re just hands that can no longer wield a blade."

"Oh, Gucheng, don’t think like that anymore. Even if you can’t use a blade, you still have power. Such strong power..." Xie Yu comforted him.

But immediately, a heavy sigh interrupted her.

Xie Yu turned her head and saw the man’s flawless profile silhouette in the sunset, giving off a feeling of loneliness and melancholy.

She didn’t say more.

Maybe this is what a true swordsman is like?

The more she comforts him, the more he might feel distressed.

So, she wrapped her arms around Li Yuan’s hand, leaned on his shoulder, and gazed at his hand controlling the Imperial Carriage in the sunset.

The late spring wind brushed against their faces, not chilly.

Xie Yu contentedly closed her eyes, suddenly feeling that if this carriage were to keep moving forward endlessly without stopping, it would be quite nice.

Li Yuan turned his head, looked at the sleeping Xie Yu, and took a thin blanket to gently cover her. In the gentle sway of the carriage, he suddenly recalled his grandiose yet awkward behavior moments ago, and couldn’t help but smile and shake his head.

Instantly, his gaze turned deep, with an unfathomable expression like a deep sea under the moon.

...

That night, he continued to experiment with the "Ghost Hand."

For two days straight, he finally figured it out.

The power of the "Ghost Hand" actually originates from part of the abilities of the "Woodworker Ghost." This ability is "opening doors."

Li Yuan vaguely recalled that back then, Pang Yuanhua was cursed by the Woodworker Ghost, so all the doors he opened led to the Carpenter’s Shop.

At that time, he didn’t know, so he just lifted the curtain and entered the carriage, inadvertently ending up in the Carpenter’s Shop. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and barely managed to escape.

But now, this power is his. ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Unlike the passive use of the ability by the "Woodworker Ghost," he can use it actively.

This ability is not really that complicated:

Place a Ghost Hand on the ground, and you can see all the doors in about a county’s distance around. Then, if you are in an enclosed area, you can remotely point to a specific door so that when it opens it directly leads to you; you can also directly point to a person so that the next time they enter a door, it will inevitably lead to you; you can even reach out a hand through a door, though it’s limited to the Ghost Hand and cannot pass through with the Golden Body Dharma Form hands.

Li Yuan pondered.

This ability, it’s actually hard to call it powerful.

No.

For a Third Grade, it’s practically weak, isn’t it?

At least the flick from his Ghost Hand reaching out from behind a door couldn’t even hurt a Fifth Grade.

But...

This ability achieves quite a decent level of concealment.

Of course, this concealment is limited to "if you are in an enclosed area, you can remotely point to a specific door so that when it opens, it directly leads to you."

Your target is the door, requiring an extremely tiny amount of Yin Qi, so small that it wouldn’t be detected by a Third Grade, at least Li Yuan had to concentrate intently and focus entirely, knowing the door had been imbued with his power to feel it.

Of course, "pointing at a person so that the next door they enter inevitably leads to you" would be more convenient. However... this way, never mind the Third Grade, even a Fifth Grade would sense it.

...

...

The next day.

A Peach Blossom Forest caught Xie Yu’s eye. She looked up, gazing longingly at the high forest.

Li Yuan said, "Then let’s live there for a while, after all, it’s convenient to buy vegetables."

"How is it convenient?"

Xie Yu asked.

Li Yuan raised his hand and said, "Even though this hand can’t wield a blade, it can still buy vegetables."

Saying this, he transformed his hands into Ghost Hands in front of Xie Yu, pressing his left hand to the ground and grabbing some broken silver with his right hand before reaching into the void. When he came out again, the broken silver had disappeared, replaced by a bloody pork rib.

Xie Yu watched him in shock.

Li Yuan quickly put away the Ghost Hands to avoid causing any visual discomfort to his wife, then said, "I’ve checked. Although it looks desolate here, there’s actually a small town not far away. This pork rib came from that small town."

With that, he chuckled self-deprecatingly.

Xie Yu rushed to clap her hands in praise, "Gucheng... this is amazing. In my heart, you’re charming whether you wield a blade or not."
