Seeing Hu Jiu's Versailles-esque exclamations, the other two people in the private room were envious. If Hu Jiu wasn't lying, and he truly possessed the ability of "luck," then it was truly something to be jealous of!

The woman questioned, "As far as I know, you've demonstrated several completely different abilities, including the spatial teleportation you showed when you entered the room just now. That can't be explained by 'luck'."

"Like I said, sometimes I find treasures on the street. To be honest, all my clothes and shoes are Supernatural Items, with all sorts of abilities. It's a real headache figuring out how to coordinate them every day~" Hu Jiu explained with a smile.

The woman opposite him found him obnoxious and couldn't laugh anymore. She turned to look at the man who had come with her and remained silent the whole time, her expression questioning.

The man frowned, concealing the bitter jealousy in his eyes, and nodded solemnly.

The woman twitched the corner of her mouth and asked Hu Jiu again, "So what is the price of this lucky ability?"

Hu Jiu pondered for a moment, "To be honest, I'm not really sure either, since it's a passive ability. But based on my observations, when I'm lucky, the people around me might be in big trouble."

This is the reason I can use to explain when my teammates die in the future.

"Hehe." The woman remained silent, truthfully recording everything Hu Jiu said.

"Alright, I've said everything I needed to say. Now you should tell me the information about Tianji," Hu Jiu urged.

The woman nodded slightly to the man, who immediately took out a crystal ball-shaped object with cracks on its surface from the Golden Container.

A Supernatural aura lingered in the room. The woman explained, "This is a serious matter. To prevent certain Ghost Tamer from using Supernatural means to steal information, we must take precautions in advance."

Hu Jiu nodded, indicating that he understood.

Once all preparations were complete, the woman spoke, "Regarding Tianji, according to Headquarters' investigation, he may be over a hundred years old."

"What!" Hu Jiu was genuinely surprised this time. "Ghost Tamer over a hundred years old? When exactly did he become Ghost Tamer?"

"I don't know, but he's definitely been Ghost Tamer for far longer than I imagine," the woman replied.

Ghost Tamers are generally short-lived. The more powerful the ghost, the easier it is to revive, and the shorter the lifespan of the Ghost Tamer. But obviously, as one of the Seven Stars of the Beidou Organization, Tianji must be very powerful. To be able to control such a powerful Fierce Ghost and live to such an old age, his ghost must have something unique about it!

With Hu Jiu's current abilities and strength, as long as he doesn't encounter a particularly powerful external enemy, he can live past one hundred years old by simply staying put.

"Headquarters is still exploring other information about Tianji. Currently, Headquarters has learned the code name of one of the Fierce Ghost controlled by Tianji through some special means— 'Magic Mirror'!"

After saying that, the woman fell silent. Hu Jiu waited a while, then pressed, "Anything else? Is that all the information you have?"

The woman smiled and said, "That's all the information we have, but Mr. Hu, please don't worry. If Headquarters learns of any new information about Tianji, they will notify you immediately."

Hu Jiu's expression suddenly turned ugly. "To extract so much information from me using Tianji couldn't determine and the code name of a ghost, Headquarters is truly... dutiful."

The woman pretended not to notice Hu Jiu's sarcastic tone; it was all within her expectations. "Although we only know the code name 'Magic Mirror,' you can guess and prepare for his abilities in advance. A mirror, after all, is nothing more than a reflection or a mirror."

Hu Jiu rolled her eyes. "You make it sound so easy. Is there anything else? If not, I'm leaving."

The woman shook her head. "That's all, Mr. Hu, please go ahead."

Hu Jiu snorted coldly and vanished from the spot in an instant.

Only the two of them remained in the hotel room. The woman breathed a sigh of relief and turned to her male companion, asking, "Was what he said just now true? Did he not lie?"

The man replied, "My abilities couldn't detect the lie."

He is also Ghost Tamer, but not a combatant. He can distinguish whether what others say is true or false, but the activation conditions are a bit harsh. His ability can only be effective when communicating face-to-face. Recording or telephone communication will not work. That is why Hu Jiu was specially invited to exchange information face-to-face this time, rather than using a mobile phone to relay the information.

The woman felt a pang of sadness. "Lucky One, really... lucky."

Hu Jiu left the hotel room with a sullen face. Once out of the two people's sight, her feigned emotions quickly vanished, and she walked calmly down the street.

After dealing with the Ghost-Drawing Talisman, he rushed to the Capital. The man in the hotel room earlier seemed a bit off. Although he didn't know what was wrong, Hu Jiu cautiously armed himself with Supernatural protective shield.

The Capital was bustling, Hu Jiu wandered aimlessly around, as if he were just an ordinary traveler. Wherever he went, he would leave behind some strange, distorted, and incomprehensible Ghost-Drawing Talisman patterns.

The Ghost-Drawing Talisman was a very powerful Fierce Ghost. After Hu Jiu mastered it, he almost immediately developed all sorts of derivative Talisman.

The most basic ability of the Ghost-Drawing Talisman is to exorcise evil spirits. Chu Shan once said that he had developed Clone Talisman, Invisibility Talisman, Ghost-Summoning Talisman, Curse Talisman, and some other random entertainment Talisman, such as Mind-Reading Talisman, Being Mind-Reading Talisman, Fart-Burp-Stinky Talisman...

Most of them were meaningless to Hu Jiu, and some were even his minefield, such as the Clone Talisman.

Even if he had the ability to easily create clones, he would never create one unless absolutely necessary.

He knows his own personality all too well: obsessive, mad, vicious, and without any bottom line. His clone must also be such a bad seed. From the moment it is born, it will definitely pursue independence and freedom single-mindedly. Once it is driven to a dead end, it will most likely try to drag its original body to its death. Its main goal is to make sure that if it is unhappy, no one else can have an easy time either!

Therefore, Hu Jiu has always been very secretive about the existence of clones.

In fact, the most important ability of Hu Jiu's Ghost-Drawing Talisman is to summon ghosts.

Although Hu Jiu could originally use the Omnipotence power of the Ghost Book or the Bronze Tree to create Fierce Ghost Supernatural that attract vengeful ghosts and summon nearby Fierce Ghosts, everyone has their own specialty. The Ghost-Summoning Talisman is more convenient to use and has a more powerful effect. It not only attracts nearby Fierce Ghosts, but also has a chance to allow vengeful Fierce Ghosts from unknown places to invade reality!

No matter how many of these fierce ghosts come, Hu Jiu will take them all!

When Chu Shan controlled the Ghost-Drawing Talisman, he could only use ordinary yellow talisman paper and enhanced purple talisman paper. But in Hu Jiu's hands, all the talisman paper he drew was a super-enhanced black one!
