025 The Hall of Souls

"By the way, Mingye, what do you think of Anna's strength?" After leaving the courtyard where An Xiaolian lived, the two walked on the corridor leading to the guest room under the leadership of Manager An. On the way, Su Bai suddenly used communication skills to ask Mingye.

"strength?"

"Well, that's how strong Anna looks."

"Well..." Ming Ye lit his chin and thought for a while, and secretly sent a voice, "If it were only among the lackeys, Anna's strength was quite strong, probably as good as a junior ghost guard."

"Junior Ghost Guard?"

"This is a level used by the underworld to distinguish the strength of warriors. The lowest-level soldiers in the underworld are ghost soldiers. They basically have no combat power and are only responsible for guarding criminals. Almost anyone can order them. Most ghost soldiers are guilty during their lifetime, but because their sins are not enough to go to hell, they are punished to ghost soldiers. When the merits made in the underworld can repay the sins during their lifetime, they can be reincarnated and of course they can also choose to stay in the underworld."

Ming Ye explained, "Then the ghost guards are the ghost guards, who are grassroots soldiers in the underworld. They are not only responsible for guarding the security of the entire underworld, but sometimes they are sent to the present world to capture some lonely ghosts who commit crimes. However, the only ghost guards who are qualified to go to the present world are basically the intermediate or above."

"So that's it." Su Bai nodded secretly. He was not surprised by the hierarchy of the underworld. However, "But I am not very clear about your hierarchy of the underworld. Even if you tell me like this, I can't get detailed values... Well, can you find a comparison reference for me to give me a more intuitive understanding?"

Ming Ye still won’t be perfunctory in this kind of thing. He thought about it seriously and then replied: “So, my strength in his heyday is probably equivalent to that of a high-level ghost guard. Now that you have half of your strength, you are only the strength of an intermediate-level ghost guard. You can almost reach this level because of the bonus of the Scythe of Sin. Then the evil spirit we wiped out last time was also equivalent to the level of an intermediate-level ghost guard, but his spiritual power was slightly higher and he was still a little stronger than us.”

After listening to Mingye’s explanation, Su Bai roughly understood something. In other words, Anna is weaker than them.

"What are you asking about this?" Ming Ye then asked back.

Su Bai shook his head, "It's okay, I'm just asking for it casually."

Of course, he didn't ask casually, but thought of something that he cared about... Anna said that every certain time, An Xiaolian would be attacked by the evil spirits attracted by unconsciousness. The An family did not want to continue wasting the talent that was not many on her, and had already given up on her a few years ago.

Even in two or three years, she was attacked by evil spirits during this period. Although An Xiaolian has super rare and weird abilities, she cannot control her unconsciousness based on her own will, but her combat power is almost zero... In other words, in recent years, Anna is the only one who will protect her.

So, with Anna only having the strength of a junior ghost guard, how can she withstand the multiple attacks of the evil spirits?

This question Su Bai didn't mention before, not because he only thought about it now, but because he vaguely guessed that the reason Anna could do this was probably because she and An Xiaolian were similar - a strange body with special abilities!

She can protect An Xiaolian from the attack of evil spirits by her own strength. If Anna really has special abilities, then her abilities will not be under An Xiaolian's unconsciousness, and she can even control her freely.

Then, if you continue to calculate, what is the backlash Anna suffered?

Not only can she resist An Xiaolian's backlash, but she can also protect herself from backlash. No matter from any aspect, Anna's true strength should be far more than the point that Ming Ye discovered.

Of course, all of this is just Su Bai's own guess. Perhaps the entire An family is arrogant. He said that he gave up An Xiaolian, but secretly protected her silently. This is not impossible, so what is the truth is another matter.

Su Bai did not think about this issue more. With Anna's foresight, if necessary, she would definitely tell him that since Anna didn't say it, it would mean that there was no need for this and he would not seek trouble for himself.

Soon, Manager An took the two to the guest room.

It is worthy of being one of the top wealthy families in Hangzhou. Even the rooms for guests to rest are no less than suites in five-star hotels. Apart from the lack of special services, there are basically everything else.

Lying on the bed, Su Bai instinctively thought about how to deal with An Xiaolian. Of course, it is not possible to simply block the water and cover the soil. Moreover, there are too few soldiers on their side, so some countermeasures must be prepared in advance... Then, as he thought about it, Su Bai fell asleep.

When he woke up the next day, looking at the strange ceiling, Su Bai's head was confused. After about a minute, he finally remembered: he lived in the rich man's house last night.

After a simple washing and drinking too early, Su Bai wanted to go to Anna to discuss the specific friendship, but Manager An told him that Anna was setting up some things in the yard last night and could not meet outsiders for the time being, so Su Bai had to give up.

After thinking for a while, Su Bai asked Manager An: "Manager An, do you have any place here for people to practice? For example, there is a little more spiritual energy."

Manager An has served in An's family for more than fifty years and knows the details of An's family very well. Anna had already told him this last night, so she didn't have to deliberately avoid anything during the conversation.

Manager An seemed to have known that he would ask this for a long time, and said with a smile: "Miss has already instructed me yesterday that if Mr. Su wants to practice, he can go to the Living Hall, please come with me."

As a lackey in the underworld, the An family also has many ordinary people in the clan, but almost one-third of the psychics with spiritual senses are. These people are naturally unable to practice under the public on weekdays. Instead, they are specially transformed through underworld techniques and have certain similarities with the underworld, such as sufficient spiritual energy.

Among them, the best place for the An family to practice is the Hall of Life, where only a few people, including the head of the An family and Anna, can practice here.

When Su Bai heard Manager An’s introduction, he frowned slightly and wondered: “The more abundant spiritual energy is, the more beneficial it is for practicing the underworld technique. If everyone can practice here, it will naturally be able to improve the strength of the entire family. Why do they still treat it differently?”

"It's not what Mr. Su thought." Manager An shook his head, "The layout of the Living Hall is very special. Every time it is opened, a large number of barrier talismans are required. This kind of talisman is very difficult to make. Even if the underworld sends a little bit every year, it is in short supply, so in most cases it is used by people with outstanding qualifications. On the other hand, if your spiritual sense is too weak, you cannot withstand the powerful spiritual power of the Living Hall."

"So that's it." Su Bai suddenly realized.

After a while, the two of them had already arrived in front of a very quaint house. Manager An stood at the door of the house, pointed forward, and said respectfully: "Mr. Su, please."

"Don't you go in?"

"Old's spiritual sense is too low and cannot withstand the spiritual power of the Hall of Life, so he cannot get in. If Mr. Su has any requests, he can tell me to wait here at any time.

"Nothing happens for the time being... Oh by the way, the girl who came with me, if she wakes up, you should bring her here too."

"yes."
