1. Chapter One: Tengwang Pavilion - Only poverty remains constant.
The butler opened the door a crack and cautiously peeked out. He saw a young man of about eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a Taoist robe, with a face as beautiful as a peach blossom and outstanding looks. His long, black hair was tied up high. He couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Excuse me, Taoist priest, are you really a master from the Qingyun Sect, here to exorcise the ghost for my young master?"
Qin Moyu nodded and showed the sect emblem on the cloth bag at his waist.
Recently, Qin Moyu has been helping people in the vicinity with exorcisms and preaching, which has helped to raise the reputation of the Qingyun Sect.
"Please come in quickly."
The butler was relieved and respectfully led the person inside.
As Qin Moyu stepped into the deep courtyard, he keenly sensed a yin energy swirling in the southeast direction.
"Master, you don't know, but recently our young master has been so bothered by that evil spirit that he can't eat or sleep, and he's lost a lot of weight." The steward couldn't help but complain as he walked. "It's not just the young master; we in the manor also often hear eerie noises in the middle of the night, and several maids have already run away."
"Could this lead to someone's death?"
"No... never."
As they spoke, they arrived at the young master's courtyard, which, unsurprisingly, was the place filled with gloomy energy.
Looking at the yin energy that almost covered half the sky, Qin Moyu marveled that it was a miracle that the living people inside hadn't died on the spot; they were only suffering from poor eating and sleeping.
"Steward, I told you there's no need to seek out any Taoist priests; they're all just charlatans." A young master, dressed in fine clothes but with a haggard face, stood in the courtyard, looking displeased.
Qin Moyu gave a forced smile, thinking to himself, "What do you expect to invite with just that little bit of stuff? The Jade Emperor? I'm already being kind enough to even come."
"After all, he was invited by the master, young master, please let the Taoist priest give it a try."
Upon hearing this, the young master became even more displeased and shouted, "Father is also confused. If anyone should be invited, it should be that Young Master Mo Yuan. Why did he invite such a nobody?"
Qin Moyu couldn't help but interject, "Young Master Mo Yuan isn't someone you can just invite."
After all, that's the main villain in the book.
Qin Moyu never expected that just by complaining that the protagonist looked like a certain elementary school student and that death would follow him wherever he went, he would inexplicably transmigrate into a book, and into a minor background sect that was only mentioned briefly.
"Hmph." The young master remained noncommittal, looking quite unconvinced. He turned to the side and urged, "Since Father sent you to catch the ghost, hurry up. If you haven't caught one by lunchtime, get out of here."
Qin Moyu didn't stand on ceremony and took out a compass to search for the source of the Yin energy.
Although I was a materialist in my past life, I have learned some things by spending a long time in this sect.
After going around in circles, the compass needle always pointed to the young master.
Qin Moyu: Oh wow.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" the young
