Starting From Fooling the Elderly into Registering for a Cultivation Training Class

Chapter 159: Black Magic

The man collapsed on the ground beside Qin Chuan. After twitching for a while, he stopped moving.

Everything happened so suddenly. Even as a cultivator, Qin Chuan was astonished.

The man on the ground was no longer alive.

Qin Chuan couldn’t help but frown. After which, he executed the Aura Examination Technique and instantly made a discovery.

There were a few threads of red lines on the man’s gray death aura.

“This is… Ghostly Qi?” Qin Chuan couldn’t help but be startled. He was reminded of something.

“Black magic!”

During the day, when he was conversing with the members of the Li family, they had talked about matters related to physiognomists.

This involved a special group of people with abilities similar to physiognomists, the practitioners of black magic.

Qin Chuan speculated that the man who had died on the ground had most likely been affected by a ghost capture spell in black magic.

The so-called ghost capture referred to the practitioner using ghosts to do things.

Ghosts would come and go without a trace. They were invisible to the naked eye.

Because Qin Chuan didn’t use the Aura Examination Technique right when the man had died, the ghost that killed this man had already disappeared.

At this moment, someone noticed them and immediately surrounded them.

Everyone’s gaze lingered on the fallen man and Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan was speechless.

He was about to leave but ended up getting involved in this matter.

A man in a dark blue suit suddenly ran out of the crowd.

He seemed to recognize the fallen man.

“Tan Chi, Tan Chi!” He shook the man, but there was no reaction.

“Stop shouting, your friend is already dead.” Qin Chuan calmly spoke.

Gao Zhengyang was startled. His eyes widened as he stared at Qin Chuan in disbelief.

“What did you say?”

Qin Chuan repeated, “I said, your friend is already dead.”

Gao Zhengyang was skeptical, but he still extended a finger and put it near Tan Chi’s nostrils.

Four to five seconds later, Gao Zhengyang’s body trembled, and his expression changed drastically. Then, he quickly retracted his arm.

“No, no…

“Tan Chi, Tan Chi… how could he have died?

“I don’t believe this, I don’t believe this…”

Gao Zhengyang’s eyes were empty, and he shook his head repeatedly. He couldn’t accept this situation.

The onlookers were shocked when they heard that someone had died.

The originally bustling ball instantly became exceptionally chaotic.

Crack! Crack! Many wine glasses fell to the ground.

The two staff members outside the hall heard the abnormal commotion and immediately ran in to check.

“Security, someone’s dead,” someone said in horror.

“Someone died???” The two were dumbstruck, thinking that they were joking.

Putting aside these people’s identities, death itself was a very serious matter.

It was confirmed that the person was indeed dead, and he was a very important person.

Instantly, the two staff members felt like the sky had collapsed.

Soon, the hotel’s higher-ups and leaders arrived one after another.

A few minutes later, police cars and ambulances arrived downstairs.

The police immediately cordoned off the area and brought everyone who attended the ball back to the police station for questioning.

…

Late at night.

Gold City Number One Police Station was brightly lit.

The people at the ball were called in to be questioned one after another.

“What’s your name?”

“Lai Zeyu!”

“Do you know the deceased?”

“No.”

…

“What’s your name?”

“Ruan Biao!”

“Do you know the deceased?”

“No.”

…

Around one in the morning.

In the interrogation room.

“What’s your name?”

“Gao Zhengyang.”

“Do you know the deceased?”

“Yes.”

“What’s your relationship?”

“Friends.”

“Please be more specific.”

“Tan Chi and I were roommates in university. We had a good relationship.

“After graduation, we started a technology company together. I was mainly in charge of technology, while he was mainly in charge of the business side. It has been eight years since then.

“We’ve already decided to get the company listed this year, but I never expected this to happen…”

At this point, Gao Zhengyang could no longer control his emotions, and he began to wail.

The police officers had no choice but to pause their questioning and wait for him to calm down.

Not long after, it was Qin Chuan’s turn.

He walked into the interrogation room and sat down calmly.

“What’s your name?”

“Qin Chuan.”

“Do you know the deceased?”

“No.”

“The deceased collapsed beside you?”

“Yes.”

“Did you have any contact with the deceased?”

“No.”

“Did you witness the death of the deceased?”

“Yes.”

“Can you describe it in detail?”

“Sure…”

…

Half an hour later.

“You can go now.”

“Please stay in Gold Sea City for the next few days and keep your mobile phone switched on.”

After the police officer gave his instructions, Qin Chuan left the police station.

Outside the police station, Li Zhongyun and company had been waiting for a long time.

“Great Master Qin, are you alright?” Li Zhong Yun asked worriedly.

Qin Chuan calmly replied, “I’m fine.”

“Great Master Qin, I didn’t expect this to happen either. It’s my fault for not making the appropriate arrangements and causing you to be frightened.”

“It’s not your fault. It’s my own problem.”

“Shall I send you to your new accommodation now?”

“Sure!”

…

Qin Chuan’s new accommodation was also a five-star hotel and still a presidential suite.

After washing up, Qin Chuan set up an array formation in his room and entered the sect.

He went straight to the divination specialization.

Those from the Divination specialization were very surprised by his arrival.

“Sect Master, why are you here?”

“I’m here to assign you a mission.”

The eyes of the Divination students lit up as they asked curiously, “Sect Master, what is the mission?”

“You need to look for someone!” Qin Chuan said.

Look for someone???

Everyone scratched their heads in confusion.

Qin Chuan continued, “I’ve been imparting divination arts to all of you for a period of time. It’s a good opportunity to test your cultivation now.”

“I see.” Everyone nodded.

After which, Qin Chuan brought them out of the sect and into the presidential suite.

It was the presidential suite of a five-star hotel, after all. Moreover, it was large enough to accommodate the 70 people from the Divination specialization.

Most of them had never stayed in a presidential suite before.

They found the luxurious decorations in the room especially .

However, they soon suppressed their curiosity.

“Sect Master, who do you need us to find?” someone asked.

Qin Chuan opened his palm.

Above his palm, there was a red cloud of air that was the size of a bean.

“You guys can use this ball of Qi to search for the person. Whoever finds the person first will be rewarded greatly.” Qin Chuan said.

“Understood!” Upon hearing the reward, everyone became especially excited.

They immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and activated their divination arts.

For a moment, the huge room was filled with hazy smoke.
