"What's up? Do you still have something to say?" Wang Duo stopped in his tracks and looked at me quizzically.
"I mean, as a disciple of the Maoshan Technique, shouldn't you be the first to deal with this kind of thing? Don't always prioritize romance." My words were laced with a bit of teasing, and of course, I was just joking with Wang Duo. I knew that under the current circumstances, he had no interest in dealing with ghostly entities.
"You can handle this thing on your own. It's not like you can't deal with it. If you need my help against a mere ghostly apparition, then I don't think you should be a disciple of the Maoshan Technique any longer, you might as well go home and enjoy your fortune."
I really felt helpless. He was being too irresponsible. Had he forgotten the primary duty of a Maoshan Technique disciple? Both of us were disciples, so why did I have to resolve everything? But whatever, he had always been this way.
"Why won't you go?"
