"I brought it!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyuan immediately took out a piece of cloth from his backpack.
Wrapped inside the cloth was the Blood Skin that Xiao Mu had mentioned.
After Xiao Mu gave the Blood Skin to Xu Qingyuan and repeatedly cautioned him, the prudent Xu Qingyuan knew that this object was probably very important. Despite his discomfort, he always carried it with him, not daring to lose it.
After returning home, he specially prepared a bag to keep it inside and then wore the bag around his body.
Upon Xiao Mu's request, he took it out of his bag immediately.
"Good!"
Xiao Mu was delighted and reached out to take the cloth.
He unfolded the cloth and took out the Blood Skin wrapped inside.
This Blood Skin, according to Xiao Mu's guess, should come from Xu Qingyuan's grandfather.
Xu Qingyuan's grandfather was murdered. The evil ghost skinned him and wore his skin, pretending to be Xu Qingyuan's grandfather, so that even Xiao Mu didn't notice any anomalies at the time.
Sadly, this kind of Blood Skin carries the Xu Family's ancestral bloodline. Only family members of the Xu and the Evil Ghost who have ingested the Xu family's Ancestral Blood can use it. Otherwise, Xiao Mu really intended to keep it.
Although it is somewhat eerie and creepy, it is after all a valuable treasure that could potentially come in handy in a critical moment.
"What is this?"
Seeing this blood-soaked transparent object that looked like skin, Zhao Yan couldn't help but ask while holding back a sensation of nausea.
"Just something I obtained from an evil ghost."
Xiao Mu vaguely answered, not intending to explain in detail to everyone. If he was to tell the origins of this object, it would probably scare Xu Qingyuan to faint.
Luckily, ghost skin is not the same as human skin, so other people couldn't figure out what it is -- its blood-soaked transparency is just unbearable to look at.
"Mr. Xu, I have a solution."
Xiao Mu, holding the Blood Skin, turned towards Xu Qingyuan, "Do you remember this object?"
Seeing Xu Qingyuan nod, Xiao Mu continued: "With this object, with a little help from me, you can transform into your grandfather, tread upon the Ancestral Blood Path, and approach the altar."
"Previously, an evil ghost transformed into your grandfather, but then I killed it. The other evil ghosts should not know that the transformed ghost is dead, so if you transform into your grandfather, the other evil ghosts will mistake you for the ghost that had transformed into your grandfather. Do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand!"
Xu Qingyuan gave a serious nod.
At this point, he had roughly understood Xiao Mu's intentions.
In order to save his ancestor, he would ultimately have to go himself. However, with this blood-soaked transparent object that Xiao Mu held, he could transform into his own grandfather, deceive the eyes of the evil ghosts and then go to save people.
"Mr. Mu, can this method...are you sure it will work?"
Zhao Yan asked with concern.
Xiao Mu assured her earnestly: "There won't be any problems, don't worry at all. Once Mr. Xu dons this object and completes the transformation, the evil ghosts definitely won't be able to see through it."
Xiao Mu was extremely confident. The reason was simple: when the evil ghost previously put on the Blood Skin and transformed into Xu Qingyuan's grandfather, even he, with his spiritual eyes, couldn't see anything unusual. How could the evil ghosts?
"Mr. Mu, please arrange it for me. Whatever you say to do, I will do."
Xu Qingyuan took a deep breath and said, seemingly firm in his decision.
Approaching the altar to rescue people was clearly dangerous for an ordinary person like him. But in order to rescue his ancestor, he was ready to risk his life.
After all, if his ancestor couldn't be rescued and something happened to him, and Xiao Mu's team couldn't hold back the evil spirit from the Ghost Gate, then it wouldn't just be him dying, but his entire family.
With these thoughts, Xu Qingyuan immediately made his determination.
Seeing the determined expression on Xu Qingyuan's face, as if ready to bravely face everything, Xiao Mu couldn't help but reassure, "Mr. Xu, don't worry, as long as you follow the arrangement, you won't be in danger."
"Alright, now I will explain how Mr. Xu will go down to rescue people."
"With this Blood Skin, Mr. Xu will wear it, and I'll do what's necessary to let Mr. Xu transform into your family's ancestor."
"Your ancestor must have been tied up. Anyway, he's stuck there somehow, whether he's physically bounded or confined by some other means, but he's definitely trapped by something you can't undo."
"To release your ancestor, I'll give you a Ward Off Evil Talisman. Also, you need to take a lighter. Once you get close to your ancestor, just light this talisman and throw it to your ancestor. Then, your ancestor will be released."
Luckily it's a Ward Off Evil Talisman. This low-level talisman is simple to use as long as it is lit with flames. If it was a third-level talisman such as a Fire Talisman, Xu Qingyuan might as well give up.
Not to mention ordinary people like him. Even mutated beings like Zhao Yan and Wang Tong, who lack Dao Method Spiritual Energy, couldn't use high-level talismans either.
Xu Qingyuan nodded solemnly while paying attention to every word Xiao Mu said, afraid that missing a single word would lead to an accident.
"Mr. Mu, once Mr. Xu lights the Ward Off Evil Talisman, the evil ghosts could probably recognize him immediately."
Zhao Yan reminded him.
"I've thought of that," said Xiao Mu.
"That's why, Mr. Xu, when you descend, you need to bring this jade plate."
As he said this, Xiao Mu took out the celestial soldier jade plate and handed it to Xu Qingyuan.
"Thank you, Mr. Mu."
Xu Qingyuan took the jade plate and carefully put it aside, his face extremely solemn.
Xiao Mu continued to instruct: "Once you release your ancestor, give this jade plate to him."
"After your ancestor receives the jade plate, he may hear the sounds of an enthronement, which roughly means to enlist him as a soldier. In any case, let your ancestor accept it. Remember, you must make him accept it. This is very important! Very important!"
Xiao Mu seriously emphasised, also considering the emotional state of the Xu family ancestor.
Lord Ancestor Xu was originally a guerrilla general.
Being a valiant guerrilla general, and suddenly becoming a soldier, may be a little hard to accept for anyone at first.
If Ancestor Xu resists, he might not be able to become a celestial soldier.
After all, with the title Xiao Mu confers, the jade plate is entitled but not Ancestor Xu. The current level of God Sealing Technique of the Heavenly Emperor is too low, it can only entitle objects, not human beings.
If Ancestor Xu insists on opposing, the jade plate cannot be effective for him.
"Don't worry, Mr. Mu, I will make sure my ancestor accepts it."
Xu Qingyuan solemnly promised. He heard the seriousness in Xiao Mu's words, so he dared not be careless.
Despite this, Xiao Mu still stressed again, "This is crucial, particularly this point, absolutely cannot go wrong. You must make your ancestor accept, otherwise, even if you release your ancestor, you will definitely not be able to fight back against the attack of the evil ghosts. Eventually, you will all die inside."
"Yes, Mr. Mu, don't worry, I assure that I can do it."
Xu Qingyuan promised again, clenching his fist tightly.
