Bai Luo's handwriting was unforgettable at a glance.

It was only during certain times that it would appear particularly neat and tidy, and that was when writing Childe's name.

To ensure Childe's name was clearly legible, he went to great lengths to write it meticulously and without any errors.

But no matter how hard he tries, he would still leave a few traces of his habits; after all, it was somewhat difficult to completely change a person's ingrained habits.

Xingqiu was very talented. He had been familiar with the collection of business books and the philosophical thoughts of his ancestors since he was a child. He was only slightly inferior in calligraphy.

During this period, he had read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" many times, thoroughly familiarizing himself with the author's handwriting, and remembering many details. That's how he recognized Bai Luo's handwriting.

"My family's exorcist arts do indeed include a soul-tracking spell, but they are only used for ghosts and evil spirits, and have never been used to find people,"

Chongyun sat in the Heyu Teahouse, talking to Xingqiu with a slightly uneasy look on his face.

It's not that he has any problem with Xingqiu, it's simply that he doesn't like the noisy environment here. Places that were too lively would cause some conflict with his constitution.

And the Heyu Tea House happened to be one of the liveliest places in Liyue, so it was unclear if Xingqiu was doing this on purpose.

However, considering his past actions, there was a high probability it was intentional.

Alas, my playmate is good in every way except that he sometimes had a bad taste.

Speaking of Heyu Tea House, it had always been a great place for Liyue locals to relax after work.

The reason why the business here was so prosperous was, firstly, because the owner, Old Master Fan, manages the business well, employing a storyteller whose tales were exceptional, often drawing repeat customers coming to listen to his stories.

Secondly, it was due to Liyue's renowned opera troupe, the Yun Han Opera Troupe. Contemporary Liyue opera artists often performed in troupes, and among the many opera troupes, the Yun Han Opera Troupe is undoubtedly the most famous.

The Yun Han Opera Troupe had been passed down from generation to generation by the Yun family, a family of performing artists, and its current head of the Yun Han Opera Troupe is the famous performer gaining much renown in Liyue Harbor—Yun Jin.

It was Boss Yun who was currently performing on stage. Knowing that Boss Yun was performing today, the Heyu Tea House had been packed early. Only affluent families like Xingqiu's could secure such close seats without queuing.

Who would have thought that the two people closest to Boss Yun had their minds completely elsewhere, not on her performance?

"A great hero is one who acts for the nation and its people. Chongyun, you don't know how righteous and chivalrous a person must be to write such a sentence. If I cannot find this person, I won't be able to sleep at night."

Taking out a folding fan from somewhere, Xingqiu wore a melancholic expression, hinting that if Chongyun didn't help him, he would lament and take his own life.

"Sigh, as you wish."

As an exorcist with a Pure-Yang Spirit, Chongyun usually convinced ghosts with reason. However, when it comes to Xingqiu, all these methods are useless.

Upon receiving Chongyun's affirmative reply, Xingqiu finally showed a satisfied expression.

After Boss Yun finished her performance, Xingqiu ordered his men to find a quiet room, and the two their task of searching for the perosn.

The so-called "Fangshi" referred to practitioners of esoteric arts and numerology.

Esoteric arts included medical scriptures, prescriptions, immortal arts, and even bedroom arts. Yes, it's that "bedroom art" from your knowledge reserves.

Numerology, on the other hand, involved the principles of Yin-Yang, the Five Elements, the Eight Trigrams, and their interactions of creation and destruction.

In ancient times, Liyue was plagued by miasma. During the unending Archon War, the demons fought endlessly and the defeated gods were suppressed beneath the bedrock, eventually transforming into decaying soil and returning to the elemental ley lines of the world.

Though their bodies were destroyed, the malevolent thoughts of the demons lingered in the human realm.

They polluted rivers and land, turning it into a wasteland, and disregarded life, causing the people to feel deep sorrow.

Xiao's duty is to resist the evil and malevolent entities formed by these malevolent thoughts.

The people of Liyue did not let the Adepti bear this karma alone, and this is how the exorcists were born.

Perhaps they had no way to fight against the powerful remnants of the demon gods, but they had figured out two methods to deal with those less formidable evil spirits.

One is to rely on incantations, dispelling evil and binding spirits, purifying within and without.

The second is martial arts, where a single powerful strike could overcome many, convincing by force.

Simply put, it is elemental damage and physical damage.

Chongyun is different from others; he practices both magic and martial arts, so he works much harder than ordinary exorcists.

Every time Xingqiu looks for him, he is either exorcising demons or training.

And the so-called method of finding people lay within the art of incantations.

Rather than "finding people," it was more like "soul searching," because exorcists had always focused on expelling demons and slaying evil, never considering humans as targets.

So even Chongyun didn't know what the consequences of doing this would be.

But considering that his family's incantations had also been used on ordinary people possessed by evil spirits. This spell... probably still has some use.

"This is the person's true handwriting, which I specifically borrowed from the Wanwen Bookhouse. It also has his autograph. Let's try them together."

The soul-searching method requires items related to evil spirits. Xingqiu, who often deals with Chongyun, is also very clear about this, so he prepared these things in advance.

"Okay, stand further away."

With a little trepidation, Chongyun used the soul-searching method on these objects.

The azure talisman gradually condensed on the "Omen of the Flower". After absorbing some things from the calligraphy and painting, it first turned around in place, as if looking for something.

A moment later, it burst through the window and flew out towards Liyue Harbor.

"Chase it!"

After handing the "Omen of the Flower" to his subordinate to return it, Xingqiu pulled Chongyun along and chased after the talisman together.

The person being sought was outside Liyue Harbor; this didn't surprise Xingqiu.

Because he had used every possible means, almost scouring the entire Liyue Harbor, but found no trace of him. He must have been afraid of retaliation from the Fatui and hidden himself deep in the mountains.

However, looking at the direction the talisman was flying, Chongyun, who was being pulled by him, felt a sense of foreboding. Because if he remembered correctly, that direction seemed to lead to an Adepti abode?

Leaving aside whether the author of the so-called "Omen of the Flowers" is there, what if their actions disturbed the Adepti? They might face some punishment.

Before long, the two had followed the talisman's trail and came to the vicinity of Mt. Aocang, but upon entering Mt. Aocang, Chongyun's connection with the soul-searching talisman was severed.

"It's over, it's over, we must have disturbed the Adepti!" Chongyun understood his own family's spells very well; such a situation had never occurred in thousands of years.

Either it has found its target, or a powerful being has cast a spell to sever the connection between it and the talisman.

Judging from this Adepti abode, he is more inclined to the latter.

His family elders had repeatedly warned him never to disturb the Adepti's meditation. I never expected that I would cause such a disaster. What should I do?

Just as the two were panicking, a figure walked out from the woods, with a wisp of talisman shadow that was about to dissipate between her fingertips.

She looked at the two young men in front of her and asked in a clear, cold voice.

"Who released this talisman?"
