The bull was now calm and subdued, stood beside Liang like a docile beast tamed by whisper of a breeze. Its chest heaved as it started as young warrior with dark, intelligent eyes as if it understood the mercy it had been shown.
Master Zi Chen was praising Liang for his intelligence and being focused unlike Jún who jumped on to attack the bull without knowing anything. Jún was closely looking at Liang with his eyes filled with envy, he was standing holding his right side rib. When Master Zi Chen was applauding Liang, there was no applause from Jún not even a fake applause just to show, no smile as well just sharp gleam of envy in his eyes.
Liang gently patted the bull's neck and stepped back and said.
"You are now free from pain my dear friend. You can now head back where you came."
The bull grunted once, then turned and trotted off into the woods, disappearing into the fading light.
The women sobbed and was now safe thanks to Liang. She thanked Liang for saving her life.
"Thank you... thank you so much for saving my life. I will be always grateful for your kindness."
Liang looked at the lady and politely replied.
"Everything is alright Ma'am, that bull will no longer cause you a trouble, and go freely now."
Master Zi Chen was curious to know the reason her being in this forest so asked.
"Ma'am, can I ask you that what are you doing in this forest?"
"Oh..... nothing.... I was just here for some Guideng Guo(Phantom Lantern Fruit), for my father."
The women put her hand inside her bag and then she pulled out and showed the Guideng Guo to Master Zi Chen. It was glowing purple with vein like patterns on it, Master Zi Chen took the Guideng Guo fruit in his hand and studied it closely.
"Guideng Guo..... this fruit is mostly used to make potion for seeing and speaking to ghosts. Why did you needed?" Master Zi Chen asked, the women respectfully answered to him.
"My father is a priest, recently he started to have some feeling that there is a evil spirit, roaming around in our village, who is causing lot of trouble, so he asked me to bring this for him."
Master Zi Chen after studying the Guideng Guo fruit, he returned it to the lady and asked.
"You are from which village?"
"I am from Zhìhuì." The lady answered.
"Hmm..... Zhìhuì.... it's been a while since I went before..." Master Zi Chen said, the women got excited after knowing that Master Zi Chen visited her village before.
"You have visited my village before?" The women asked with sparkling eyes.
"Yes..... I went there. Your village is mostly known for the creating various spells and potion for communication with the spirits, I wanted to learn that so I came to your village. There was one priest he was very intelligent, unfortunately I can't remember his name, his name was..."
Master Zi Chen was trying remember the name of his teacher who thought him some ghost spells but before he could remember the women answered.
"Master Tao Enlaì?"
Master Zi Chen then nodded his head.
"Yes... yes.... Master Tao Enlaì. Do you know him?"
Master Zi Chen asked, the women smiled and answered.
"Yes.... he is my grandfather."
Master Zi Chen was surprised after knowing that she was Master Tao Enlaì's granddaughter, he was so happy to meet her.
"You are Master Tao Enlaì's granddaughter.... oh... it is so great to see you. It's an honor." Master Zi Chen shook the hands of women with great joy. He was really happy to meet her.
"What's your name young lady?" Master Zi Chen asked her name, the women politely said.
"My name Fengyìn Enlaì..... however you can call me Fen. By the way what your name Master?"
"Oh.... my name is Zi Chen."
Just like Master Zi Chen was surprised after knowing her this Fengyìn had a same reaction as well.
"You.... are Master Zi Chen" Fengyìn asked and Master Zi Chen nodded.
"I mean.... you are the famous Master Zi Chen who trained and taught Emperor Shou?" Fengyìn asked curiously, Master Zi Chen again nodded.
After reassuring, Fengyìn was smiling in happiness, she couldn't believe that right now she is standing infront of Master Zi Chen.
"Oh my god..... I am so happy to meet you Master Zi Chen, I am so happy.... I never thought in my dreams that I will ever meet you. Am I dreaming right now?" Fengyìn said with full of excitement and nervousness. She was feeling little bit uneasy as well infront of Master Zi Chen but Master Zi Chen made her feel comfortable.
"Yes.... yes..... young lady, you are not dreaming, I am Master Zi Chen and I am standing here right infront of you." Master Zi Chen laughing.
Fengyìn was excited to see Master Zi Chen and she started to tell him the stories about how she got know about him.
"Oh my god..... Master Zi Chen..... you know.... I wanted to meet you as a person, I heard a lot about you from my grandfather, he told me that you were his most brilliant student."
Master Zi Chen was just smiling and nodding his head.
"Thank you..... I am great to know that. What else your grandfather told you about me?" Master Zi Chen asked.
"Oh Master Zi Chen... he always told how good were you in learning and creating new spells. He told me you learned and mastered the Yōuhùn Fùyìng Zhòu(Ghostly Shadow Binding Curse) within a week and also used it to protect our village from the evil spirit named Lìmŭ."
Master Zi Chen smiled and nodded.
"Yes.... that's true. I still remember I was very young at that time and your grandfather was the who gave me this task." Master Zi Chen said.
Liang was curious to know about Yōuhùn Fùyìng Zhòu spell after hearing it from them.
"Master.... what is this Yōuhùn Fùyìng Zhòu spell and what is so speacial about it?"
Master Zi Chen looked at Liang and answered.
"Liang.... Yōuhùn Fùyìng Zhòu is a spell in which we could capture or trap a evil spirit within an object's shadow, forcing it into servitude and silencing its unrest."
Liang was amazed learning about the Yōuhùn Fùyìng Zhòu, he also wanted to learn the spell.
"Master.... sounds interesting. I also wanted to learn this spell."
Liang showed his interest to learn the Yōuhùn Fùyìng Zhòu spell, Master Zi Chen laughed and replied.
"I am proud to know Liang that you want to learn this spell but it is very early for you. I will teach you this spell in the future."
"Ok Master... as you say." Liang said and bowed to him. Fengyìn after seeing Liang and Jún was curious to know who they actually were.
"Master..... are these two your students?" Fengyìn asked.
"Oh..... yes... yes. These two are my students please let me introduce them to you. This is Liang son of Emperor Shou."
Fengyìn was starstruck to know Liang was Emperor Shou's son, she immediately bowed.
"Oh.... hello prince Liang."
"Hello." Liang also bowed and greeted her.
"And this is administrator Cheng's son Jún." Master Zi Chen gave Jún's introduction. Fengyìn also greeted him by bowing to him.
"Hello prince Jún." Fengyìn greeted. In reply Jún also bowed and said.
"Hello....ahhhh...."
Jún screamed in pain because bowed and he was injured. Because of his injuries he fell on the ground groaning in pain.
