As Zhang Wei and his group emerged from the Dragon Locking Well, it was already evening.
At that moment.
Ding dong.
Zhang Wei’s phone chimed with multiple text message alerts. He picked it up and saw several missed calls and messages. Upon checking, they were from the Wei Dao Division, Qiu Xiaolin, Lu Lianxue, Zhang Chao, and others.
Before coming to the Dragon Locking Well, Zhang Wei hadn't informed them that he would be handling it alone. They all believed he was cooperating secretly with high-ranking officials from the Wei Dao Division. It was only after the ghost tides in various locations were cleared that Lu Lianxue and the others learned Zhang Wei had gone alone.
They had called Zhang Wei relentlessly, wanting to find him, but unfortunately, Zhang Wei was inside the Dragon Locking Well and had no phone signal.
Subsequently.
Zhang Wei returned their calls. Upon receiving his calls and learning that Zhang Wei had already dealt with Senluo, they were all stunned. When Zhang Wei repeatedly confirmed it, Zhang Chao and the others were ecstatic.
“Zhang Wei, you’re amazing! You actually resolved Senluo, haha.”
“Little Wei Zi, you’re so capable, truly my Little Wei Zi.”
“Zhang Wei, it seems you’re no longer aiming to make a name for yourself globally; you’re about to be written into the history of Great Xia’s ghost exorcists.”
“Amitabha, Zhang Wei, you have eliminated the most dangerous hidden threat for Great Xia. With Senluo dead, the Senluo Division will also become a thing of the past.”
Zhang Wei grinned and slowly said:
“I didn’t just resolve Senluo.”
“And the Senluo Division will not become a thing of the past; the Senluo Division will still exist.”
“Because…”
“The current Senluo Division belongs to me.”
…
That night.
On the Wei Dao Division forum and international forums, a post by the renowned forum user [Xiao Xuan] flooded the forums.
It was a post about Zhang Wei.
It detailed how the Senluo Division had instigated ghost tides across Great Xia, attempting to open a terrifying place and obtain a terrifying item. Zhang Wei had been the first to perceive the situation and went alone to stop it, ultimately killing Senluo, the creator of the Senluo Division, and integrating the Senluo Division.
Simultaneously.
This news also introduced the colossal power that was the Senluo Division, a force that had been entrenched in Great Xia for centuries. It was rumored that its leader, Senluo, had intricate ties with Great Xia’s first God of War, Chi You. Its power was such that the injury sustained by the Old Master of the Huang family was caused by Senluo, a fact that had been confirmed by high-ranking officials of the Senluo Division.
Upon the post’s release.
Both the Nation-Guarding level powerhouses and the ancient ghosts were shocked.
They might not have been familiar with the Senluo Division, but they were aware of the Old Master of the Huang family, an old monster who had lived for over a thousand years, dominating the northeast of Great Xia for millennia, commanding respect even from Nation-Guarding level individuals from various countries.
However.
Such a powerful existence had been injured by Senluo.
And…
The mighty Senluo had been killed by Zhang Wei.
The news swept through major ghost forces and ghost exorcist organizations worldwide like a storm. The moment they received the news, they dispatched people to verify the situation. After confirmation, they successively issued orders, listing Zhang Wei as a figure of the same caliber as the Old Master of the Huang family.
“Great Xia has gained another monster.”
The Pope of the Holy See, looking at the message about Zhang Wei handed to him by a guard, wore a smile mixed with感慨:
“Now I understand why Zhang Wei was unwilling to join our Holy See back then. Besides worshipping the Jade Emperor, he apparently also had an organization that was no less influential than our Holy See.”
…
Beautiful Country, Hawaii.
At this time.
Succubus Jeanne, looking at the post about Zhang Wei on the international forum on her phone, her beautiful eyes flickered, and she smiled:
“As expected of my master. Now I will officially accept the invitation from Xiu Hua Xie and join the Senluo Division.”
…
On the other side.
Sakura Country, within the Onmyōji Bureau.
“Bureau Chief, is there something?”
Fūwa Mihiko, Zhang Wei’s girlfriend in Sakura Country, had just returned from a ghost exorcism with her best friend when she received a message that the Bureau Chief wanted to see her. She knocked and entered, asking.
Upon entering.
Fūwa Mihiko was a little stunned. Not only was the Bureau Chief present in the office, but also their family elders and the current high-ranking officials of the Onmyōji Bureau were all there.
“Mihiko, the Fūwa family head mentioned that you are quite familiar with Zhang Wei?”
“Mr. Zhang Wei? He’s good buddies with my fiancé, Yu Xiaoqi. What’s wrong, Bureau Chief? Why are you suddenly asking about Mr. Zhang Wei?”
“Is that so? Then Mihiko, you will be promoted. You are hereby appointed as the Grand Bureau Chief. You can continue to exorcise ghosts as usual, but from now on, you must attend high-level meetings because you are the Grand Bureau Chief.”
Grand Bureau Chief was a high-ranking position in the Onmyōji Bureau.
Fūwa Mihiko was a bit dazed. How did she get promoted so suddenly, becoming the Grand Bureau Chief?
Afterward.
Upon inquiry, Fūwa Mihiko learned that Zhang Wei was in charge of the Senluo Division, and she suddenly understood, exclaiming in shock:
“Mr. Zhang Wei killed the leader of the Senluo Division? My heavens, is that the Senluo Division that killed our Sakura Country’s Shuten-dōji?”
“Yes, it is that Senluo Division. Zhang Wei is now the leader of the Senluo Division.”
The Bureau Chief smiled.
Since the Shuten-dōji incident, the Onmyōji Bureau had gained an understanding of the Senluo Division and knew what a major force it was. With Zhang Wei now in charge, it was enough to warrant their attention. To avoid another Shuten-dōji incident, especially since the high-ranking officials of the Senluo Division were all hot-tempered, it was necessary to build a good relationship with Zhang Wei.
…
This day.
Was destined to be turbulent, a day destined to be remembered by ghost exorcists and ghosts of all countries.
On that day.
Ghost exorcists and ghosts from various countries were discussing Zhang Wei, recounting his past experiences. As they discussed, they were all shocked by Zhang Wei’s exploits. Each of his experiences was enough to be major news, each could serve as a topic of casual conversation.
On this day as well.
The ghost exorcist organizations and ghost forces of various countries listed Zhang Wei as one of the individuals not to be provoked.
And as for the person concerned, Zhang Wei.
At this time.
He acted as if nothing had happened. After bringing the high-ranking officials of the Senluo Division to meet Zhang Chao, Wu Nian, Lu Lianxue, and Qiu Xiaolin, he pulled Zhang Chao, Wu Nian, and Fatty along to play games.
“Since the Senluo Division matter has been resolved, we can have fun now.”
Zhang Wei said, gently squeezing Lu Lianxue’s and Qiu Xiaolin’s hands, and whispering in their ears:
“I’ll come to accompany you later.”
Qiu Xiaolin and Lu Lianxue giggled, then exchanged glances and sweetly whispered in unison to Zhang Wei:
“Okay, we’ll wait for you.”
…
The End of this book!
(ps: The book officially concludes here. There isn't much left to write in the subsequent parts. The only things left to write about would be Zhang Wei and God, but these are no longer about ghost hunting and do not fit the main theme of this book, so I am concluding it here. Even though the ending in the later stages wasn't written perfectly, it still covered what needed to be covered.
Also, I would like to thank all the readers for their companionship. This book was written over 352 days. I am grateful for every reader’s support, especially those who supported it all the way to the completion. Thank you very much! I bow to you all here.
