A dense forest.
An orange cat crouched on a tree branch, gazing toward a distant lake.
It was already far from Ramon Town, deep in the mountains at the edge of the wilderness.
Beyond the mountains lay another duchy.
The orange cat drew back its gaze, closed its eyes, and waited in silence.
According to the evil ghost's memories, this place was so remote that it was little more than a temporary outpost. Besides, people across the world firmly believed in evil ghosts, so the defenses here were not very strict.
Their greatest confidence lay in how well each individual could keep their identity secret.
Even that fellow infected by the plague had gained a host of defensive spells the instant he came back to life after dying.
About two quarters of an hour passed.
The orange cat suddenly opened its eyes and looked toward the lake.
An evil ghost dropped from the sky and landed on the lake's surface, then vanished at once.
Seeing this, the orange cat turned and ran, quickly leaving the woods surrounding the lake.
It stopped at the other end of the forest and took out the jade slip from earlier. Then it brushed a paw across it.
In an instant, all the records of archery techniques on the jade slip disappeared.
"What are you doing?" Earth Sword transmitted in a buzzing voice.
"I don't have any spare jade slips right now, so I might as well use theirs to alter something," Gu Qingshan transmitted back.
The orange cat tossed the jade slip into the air and continuously formed incantations with both paws.
Earth Sword swayed through the air, slicing a huge python glaring down from a tree in two, then said, "I thought you'd just kill all those evil ghosts."
