Realm of the Night God

Chapter 658: Heartlink Talisman

Yang Haoran mentioned the Zhang family, and Xu Meijing's smile on her face gradually faded, her expression becoming much more serious.

"The trouble the Zhang family is facing this time is no small matter, you'd better not get involved, lest you get into trouble," Xu Meijing warned.

"Hehe, you're being too cautious, I'm very curious, and even if you didn't warn me, I wouldn't get involved if it's really that dangerous," Yang Haoran said with a smile.

From Xu Meijing's tone, it was clear that this matter was more dangerous than Yang Haoran had imagined, but Yang Haoran still wanted to know more, and his curiosity was only one aspect of it.

Seeing that Yang Haoran didn't take her warning seriously, Xu Meijing didn't get angry, and instead, she began to explain to satisfy Yang Haoran's curiosity.

"According to Zhang Changchun, they've provoked a extremely powerful ghost, and it's likely to come knocking on their door soon. When that happens, the Zhang family might not be able to withstand the calamity, which is why they've decided to find a helper in advance," Xu Meijing said.

"Do you mean that, up until now, the ghost hasn't caused any trouble for the Zhang family, and as for when it will come, or if it will come at all, it's still an unknown?" Yang Haoran thought for a moment before asking.

Xu Meijing nodded, giving a affirmative answer to Yang Haoran's question.

"How did the Zhang family provoke this ghost?" Yang Haoran asked again.

"They tried to catch a ghost but ended up getting hurt by it, and that's how the grudge began. However, this is only Zhang Changchun's side of the story, and I'm not sure if that's the whole truth," Xu Meijing said.Upon hearing this, Yang Haoran's face turned contemplative, as if he was thinking about something. Xu Meijing saw this and warned him again.

"The Zhang family is not weak, especially Zhang Changchun's power, which is unfathomable. The ghost that can make them so anxious must be extremely powerful, so I think it's better for you not to get involved. If you do, you might be in danger."

Yang Haoran's face broke into a smile again, but from his facial expression, it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

"Are you going to get involved?" Yang Haoran asked with a smile.

Xu Meijing's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then she nodded under Yang Haoran's gaze.

"If possible, I wouldn't want to get involved, but I have no choice," Xu Meijing said, her tone somewhat helpless.

"Hehe, is it because the Zhang family's offer has tempted you?" Yang Haoran asked with a smile.

"The Zhang family hasn't made an offer yet, but I think the benefits will definitely be substantial. However, the benefits are only one aspect. You also know the current situation; the Zhang family needs our AnchengYin Division's support, and similarly, we need their power. If it were in the past, I wouldn't have to bother with them, but now is different from before. We need to cooperate, even if it's dangerous."

At this point, Xu Meijing's voice paused slightly, and then she looked at Yang Haoran and continued.

"I have a reason to get involved, but you don't, so you don't need to get involved in this mess," Xu Meijing said.

"Hehe, I also have a reason to get involved," Yang Haoran said with a smile.

"What reason could you have, and what about Lecheng if you get involved?" Xu Meijing asked.

"I'm not very reassured about you," Yang Haoran said without explaining further.

Upon hearing this, Xu Meijing smiled and didn't say anything more.

The two of them left the pavilion and returned to the second floor of the Zhang family's guest house. When they returned, Zhang Changchun looked extremely happy.

"Please, two divine envoys, take a seat."

Zhang Changqing stood up to greet them, and after they sat down, he looked at Yang Haoran.

"Yang Divine Envoy, were your previous words sincere? Are you really willing to lend a hand to help my Zhang family get through this difficult time?" Zhang Changqing asked eagerly.

"Hehe, Old Man Zhang, please tell me in detail, so I can know if I have the ability to make a contribution." Yang Haoran said with a smile.

Just now, in the pavilion, Yang Haoran had learned some information from Xu Meijing's mouth, but Xu Meijing didn't say it in great detail.

Moreover, even if one had a detailed understanding of the matter, there were still some formalities that needed to be gone through.

"Of course, I've already explained it to everyone in detail before, it's just that Yang Divine Envoy wasn't present, so I'll repeat it again now."

Next, Zhang Changchun recounted the whole story, which was similar to what Xu Meijing had said, but with more details.

Although Yang Haoran had already had a general understanding of the matter, he still listened very carefully, and only smiled and spoke up after Zhang Changchun finished.

"If I'm willing to help, what do I need to do?" Yang Haoran asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, Yang Divine Envoy, I'm just about to get to that."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Changchun smiled and took out a few talismans, then lightly waved his hand, and the talismans flew towards the people seated, with one of them hovering in front of Yang Haoran's eyes.

"This time, what I need to trouble you all with is very simple. I'll use this talisman to remind you, and when the time comes, you just need to arrive in a timely manner to provide support."

Everyone looked at the talisman in front of them, and Yang Haoran was no exception. After taking a closer look, he recognized what kind of talisman it was.

It was a Heartlink Talisman, which required a pair to take effect. Therefore, when the talisman master drew this symbol, they had to draw a pair.

The Heartlink Talisman had no attacking or defensive capabilities; it was actually a special reminder tool. No matter where the talisman was triggered, the other talisman would produce a strong reaction, reminding the holder of the other talisman. This was its main function, and also its only function, which was why it was called a Heartlink Talisman.

Although the Heartlink Talisman was a pair, its characteristics were different from other talismans, but it shared one thing in common - it was a one-time consumable item. Once triggered, regardless of which talisman was triggered, the entire pair of Heartlink Talismans would turn to ashes.

Yang Haoran looked at the Heartlink Talisman in front of him, then shifted his gaze to the talismans in front of the others, which were also Heartlink Talismans.

Each of them had a Heartlink Talisman in front of them, and the matching talismans were all in Zhang Changchun's hands.

The function of the Heartlink Talisman was very simple, with no attacking or defensive capabilities, but among talismans, it was considered a mid-level talisman. The higher the level of the Heartlink Talisman, the stronger the reaction would be after triggering, and the longer it would last.

At this time, the Heartlink Talismans taken out by Zhang Changchun were all yellow talisman-level, without exception.

The people present were not all familiar with the Heartlink Talisman like Yang Haoran, and the reason he recognized it was that he was a talisman master himself, and before becoming a talisman master, he had put in a lot of effort in this area. It wasn't realistic to say that he knew all talismans, but he did know many, and some were even lost talismans of the Fu Sect.

Although he recognized the Heartlink Talisman, Yang Haoran still intentionally showed a puzzled expression on his face, then looked at Zhang Changchun.

"Old Man Zhang, what is this talisman?"

Seeing that Yang Haoran didn't recognize the talisman, Zhang Changchun didn't find it strange, and he chuckled before explaining.

"This talisman is called a Heartlink Talisman, which requires a pair to take effect. Due to its single function and the need for pairing, it's indeed a bit of a hassle, so it doesn't have much reputation. Each of your other Heartlink Talismans is in my hands, and I only need to trigger the corresponding Heartlink Talisman in my hand. Your Heartlink Talismans will react, which will indicate that the Zhang family has encountered major trouble, and we'll need to trouble you all to come and provide support at that time."

After hearing Zhang Changchun's explanation, Yang Haoran's face showed an "ah, I see" expression, while the others didn't show much change in their expressions.

Although they had heard Zhang Changchun's explanation, none of the people present picked up the Heartlink Talismans in front of them, leaving them to hover in the air.

Zhang Changchun saw this and smiled knowingly, realizing it was time for him to show his sincerity.
