My Ability Pool is Superior

Seeing this scene, Lu Bai silently applied a layer of black paint to himself.

That figure standing alone on the stone path in the dead of night, after learning the general situation of this world, Lu Bai could somewhat guess.

He just wasn’t sure whether it was a household immortal or a wild immortal.

He hadn’t noticed when that thing arrived in the village, but from the current situation, the other party didn’t seem to intend to leave easily.

That smooth humanoid figure kept looking left and right, with movements far more exaggerated than ordinary people, more like a theater actor.

The other party observed like this for a while, then stepped toward the village head.

Due to the obstruction of the wall, Lu Bai couldn’t keep observing the other’s movements.

That figure soon disappeared from his sight.

However, Lu Bai did not relax his vigilance and quietly left the room.

Bang~ Bang~ Bang~

Sure enough, before he reached the entrance, he heard a rhythmically anomalous knocking sound.

Hmm, Xiao Li’s house is right at the village head.

Lu Bai paused his steps.

It wasn’t fear; he was purely calculating whether there was a need to act.

The knocking stopped immediately, but the other party clearly hadn’t left.

Through the door crack below, he could clearly notice two shadows—they were the other’s legs.

Seeing this, Lu Bai made a decision.

He walked over, unlatched the door bolt, and opened the house door.

Standing at the entrance was a naked man, his whole body as pale as if smeared with rouge powder.

The other party stared fixedly at Lu Bai, grinning silently and strangely.

“Hee hee, little brother…”

In a daze, this naked man turned into a charming and alluring woman, her red lips slightly parting, continuously letting out seductive soft calls.

These soft calls itched at the heart, making one unable to resist drawing close to her.

Lu Bai blinked and approached her step by step.

Of course, he wasn’t charmed; he just planned to get close and test her with a punch first.

These soft calls perhaps carried some strange power, but under Lu Bai’s continuous use of [Flash Time], this charm became intermittent and couldn’t affect Lu Bai’s mind.

“You dog thing! Die for me!”

Suddenly, someone at the village entrance scolded vigorously.

Lu Bai instinctively turned to look.

In the night, he could see a group of four people.

Leading was a middle-aged man in the appearance of a farmer, bringing three youths, charging wildly toward his side.

Lu Bai’s sudden reaction made this immortal realize he wasn’t charmed at all.

Stunned for a moment, then he hee hee smiled.

On that naked male villager’s face, fox-like facial hair appeared.

“Interesting little brother, come drink fox spirit sometime~”

As the coquettish voice fell, that male villager immediately collapsed to the ground with a thud, eyes tightly closed and unconscious.

The group of four arrived in front of Xiao Li’s house, one youth reaching to help up that male villager, but stopped by the farmer.

The young lad’s complexion tightened at once, lowering his voice: “Master, that yellow thing is still here?”

After getting closer, Lu Bai realized this farmer wasn’t burly; his robust build was just supported by a large frame.

Master shook his head, took the bundle from another youth’s back, squatted on the ground and fiddled for a bit, pulling out an incense stick.

He shook it a few times to light it, held the incense with both hands, muttering in his mouth.

There was hardly any wind now, but the smoke from the incense wasn’t a straight line; it scattered into several strands, looking very chaotic.

Such chaotic incense shape meant that immortal was still running amok everywhere.

“Bold.”

Master, seeing this, furrowed his brows in anger.

Among the three youths the farmer brought, the first two, whether they could help or not, at least had the intention.

But the last slightly plump youth didn’t do anything, walked to Lu Bai and glared at him.

“Kid, why didn’t you call for help?”

“I don’t know you, didn’t know what to call.” Lu Bai’s face carried a friendly smile.

“Call Master, the halls around these few villages are all Master’s, villagers seeking matters all have to find our Master.”

Master was originally busy, hearing this, briefly shifted his attention to Lu Bai, and then couldn’t shift away.

It must be said, the material of Lu Bai’s clothing differed greatly from those villagers facing soil and back to sky; no matter how you looked, he didn’t seem like a person from this village.

Moreover, his transcendent and refined temperament, and his calm and composed performance throughout… everything shown made Master not dare to underestimate.

He immediately handed the incense in his hand to the most obedient apprentice.

Stood up and fiercely kicked his fat apprentice, then cautiously cupped hands toward Lu Bai: “This one is Tao Gui, Spirit Messenger under Master Bai Fourteen, responsible for practicing here, may I ask Young Master’s honorable surname?”

Lu Bai looked at Master, thoughtful.

He had heard Xiao Li mention news about this aspect.

Incense Master, that is, the incense topping person for a certain immortal.

Since the fat apprentice said this Master guarded several villages, he was probably an altar immortal one level higher than household immortal.

Simply put, for cultivation and establishment, altar immortals need to descend the altar, and the chosen incense topping person must serve as spirit messenger for them.

General work scope includes treating illness, exorcism, dispelling disasters, and giving instructions on fortune and misfortune, etc.

“My surname is Lu.”

Lu Bai had many doubts needing someone to explain, naturally wouldn’t pretend to be profound.

“Lu…”

Master pondered, recalling which nobles in the county town had the surname Lu.

Lu Bai continued to interrupt Master’s train of thought: “The one possessing this villager is a fox spirit; the few villagers missing in the village recently should also be related to it.”

Hearing this, Master’s complexion immediately became grave: “Young Master Lu, this is no joking matter.”

Xiao Li actually wasn’t too clear about news in this aspect either.

In fact, under the Four Great Gates system, Hu Clan’s status was higher than the other three gates.

Even at the household immortal level, Hu Clan, due to high identity, generally only resided in empty gates, not God of Wealth Building.

As the group benefiting most from the current order, if even they caused chaos, the situation would be far worse than imagined.

Lu Bai glanced at the incense in Master’s hand: “Isn’t this immortal still in the village? Find it and you’ll know.”

Master cupped hands toward Lu Bai again, took back the half-burned incense from the apprentice beside him.

“Young Master Lu is right, nearly missed the main matter.”

……

Although it was midnight, the villagers in the village actually slept lightly; hearing movement, most woke up.

Many men carried hoes and rakes and ran out.

After all, several villagers had gone missing these days; Master was actually invited over by the village elder.

The village elder, leaning on his cane, walked out the house door, seeing Lu Bai unexpectedly beside the incense master, couldn’t help shivering.

But face to face, he didn’t dare speak ill of Lu Bai, only tremblingly moved to Master’s side.

“Steward Lord, found the rampaging evil spirit yet?”
