The Maoshan Sect had a political teacher.

There was actually nothing strange about this. Many large private and state-owned enterprises currently attached great importance to political education. In its capacity as a large-scale tourist attraction, there was absolutely nothing remarkable about the employees in the Maoshan Sect's scenic area receiving some ideological and political education.

Ning Tiance found that the frequency of his self-doubts increased after he met Teacher Shen.

In the past, Ning Tiance had thought that he was the chief disciple of the Maoshan Sect, the designated future sect leader, a master at expelling ghosts, eminent among his peers, calm, brave, self-disciplined, laughing at life and death, willing to devote his whole life to the true path of the world.

After meeting Teacher Shen, Ning Tiance felt that his persona had collapsed, leaving behind not much more than "chief disciple of the Maoshan Sect."

Ning Tiance opened his third eye for the first time, wanting to see what was so special about Teacher Shen that made it so he could spend a night in a morgue surrounded by fierce ghosts.

As soon as his third eye opened, he saw the soul of a teenaged boy shivering under the bedplate, pitifully hiding from the sunlight.

Ning Tiance stayed at the Internet cafe past one without finding the job posting his Shifu had spoken of. Angry and anxious, he left the smoke-filled Internet cafe and walked numbly through the streets.

The sect's elders attached great importance to this assignment. Before Ning Tiance had left, they'd told him that if the fierce ghosts were too powerful, he must contact the sect.

Translator's Note: Hi, everyone! This is the last chapter of the main novel. There are still five extras to go. Thank you for your kind comments throughout!

My students seemed to have their own information network. They already knew that I had found out the truth. For this class, everyone was dressed especially dramatically, hair a mess, faces grimy, dripping with blood, not at all as cute as before.

The lights in the Fourth Class, Third Year classroom were bright, and the impact of twenty fierce ghosts was powerful. When I walked into the room, I backed up and looked at the doorplate again to make sure that I hadn't gone into the wrong classroom. For a moment I thought I'd walked onto a film set by mistake.

Transcending twenty students at one time was a big deal. I had no experience in this field, so I asked Xiao Ning, the professional, whether there was a way.

Xiao Ning said, “A century ago, the Maoshan Sect did perform this kind of great magic working, transcending dozens or even hundreds of wandering souls at one time. But society is changing rapidly now, people's lives are becoming better and better every day. Starting from my Shifu's generation, no one has that kind of experience."

I didn't end up asking, because Xiao Ning took away my phone.

When we paused for breath I asked him if it had been five minutes yet. He said no, then kissed me again. Later I just forgot about it. Why worry so much about it? Anyway, it was enough that Xiao Ning liked me.

The scene was very chaotic for a time. Sect Leader Ning didn't wait for Xiao Ning to bring the sword; he made a hand gesture in preparation for a battle to the death with a living corpse. It was past five o'clock. It got light early in summer, and our room was high up; the first rays of sunlight came in through the window in the hotel's corridor. Xiao Duan screamed and ran towards the room. Xiao Ning absolutely hadn't expected that I would stand up while he was lying on my lap and send him toppling off the sofa. With that added to the carsickness that hadn't faded yet, he lay on the floor in a state of utter confusion.

I swear that in that moment I wanted to forget everything and concentrate on responding to Xiao Ning. He was kissing me, never mind why. I should enjoy it while I could.

However, there was a mosquito constantly buzzing by my ear. I searched for the source of the sound, reached out my hand, and slapped Xiao Ning on the face.

I had a lot of questions for her, but I didn't know where to start.

Unlike Teacher Liu and the other ghosts, Principal Zhang was still alive, but not in good shape.

"Her living soul is leaving the body," Ning Tiance said after checking Principal Zhang's eyes and the top of her head. "The Yang fire on her head has gone out."

"What Yang fire?"

Unable to leave the country for a hundred years — he really was shut in. As poor a student as I was, I’d still gone abroad once with my teacher to attend an academic conference.

"Xiao Duan, Xiao Duan?" I rushed into the bedroom and reached out to help Duan Youlian.

But Teacher Liu stopped me and said, “Her mood is unstable now, her Yin energy is especially heavy. If an ordinary person touches her... Ah, forget it. How can your righteous energy be even more exuberant? You'd better not touch her. I’m afraid she'll cry."

After that, Teacher Liu helped the frail Xiao Duan get up and had her sit on the bed frame.

Xiao Ning stuck all the talismans he'd taken off me onto the inside of the yellow robe, then handed me the peach wood sword. With a serious expression, he said, "I'm afraid Duan Youlian has gone mad. Even Teacher Liu, a ghost with such deep magic, was taken by her. We can't underestimate her. That sword will be more effective in your hands than mine, so I'm leaving it to you. If necessary, bite through the tip of your tongue and spray a mouthful of blood into her face. It'll be enough to save your life."

Considered from a scientific and rational perspective, I was facing a pair of con artists.

Considered from the point of view of faith and emotion, I was even more certain that there was no such thing as ghosts.

But against all odds a small branch of my emotions broke off, betraying my faith. Privately, I didn't think Xiao Ning was a liar. I still remembered the time he’d gotten off the train in the middle of the night and rushed back to H City, and the travel-worn way he had looked the next morning.

"Wh-what relationship?" Sect Leader Ning turned on me. "Didn't we just meet last night?"

"The relationship of helping you hide the truth from Xiao Ning," I said. "Your health is poor, and you don't want to make trouble for your juniors. That’s part of the psychology of most elders. I understand. And anyway, a herniated disc isn't a fatal disease. You'll be more careful after you finish physical therapy and not always insist on sitting on a hard seat. So I'm willing to help you hide that from Xiao Ning. But it's wrong to say that there are ghosts. That's of a different nature."

My days and nights had been reversed lately, and I was starting to get used to it. Although it was after four in the morning when I went to sleep, I woke up clear-headed at seven in the morning.

Waking up in a strange place, I was confused at first. I looked around and saw Xiao Ning asleep beside me. All the buttons of his black shirt were undone, revealing his firm chest and abs.

Hearing me say there was no need to answer, Duan Youlian at once threw her pen onto the floor, tore up her test paper, and threw it into the air.

The other students followed suit. Some threw pens, some tore up their papers.

Teacher Liu, however, used the test paper to wipe the ink off his brush, carefully put the brush away, then adjusted his Zhongshan suit, elegant and refined, just as if he hadn't been the one boiling, feeding, and flaying just now.

He kindly said to me, "I only ever taught the students how to speak. I never verified the results of my teaching. This idea of yours is a good one. I have some pens for you here. You can give them to the students."

For half an hour Principal Zhang's status was “typing," but she didn't reply. How indecisive was she? Typing, deleting, then typing again for so long?

"Having a test after only two classes really seems a bit..." Ning Tiance's tone was somewhat constrained.

"When I was a child, I hated tests," I recalled, "but I have to admit that only by undergoing tests did I get a firm grasp on the knowledge. If you want to learn, relying on interest isn't enough. Our students are of a different nature. They are all special students who need contact with society. They have problems with their common sense. Next class, I’m planning on giving them an exploratory quiz to test everyone's social common sense and legal common sense levels, then focus my teaching. "

You said you called in a Celestial Master to catch ghosts when our company was being haunted last time. Can you give me his number? I think I ran into a ghost yesterday! Oh, I'm writing it down, he's called Ning-tianshi, all right, I'll get in touch with him."
