Chapter 5 - The Old Residence

The little ghost suddenly changed its appearance in mid-air, turning into its pitch-black, deathly form. It opened its mouth that was filled with maggots as it attacked.

I pushed the little boy away and threw the sigil in my hand out.

"AHH!" The little ghost was burned by the symbols, but it was only a small wound. As he looked at the smoking wound, he instantly became angry and roared, "If you don't play with me, I'll kill you —"

Seeing that the incantation was useless, I immediately took out a dagger and cut my finger. I felt pain and fresh blood dripped onto the incantation.

I recited an incantation that was about to be forgotten as I raised my arm and threw it over. The blood symbol immediately reflected on the little ghost's face.

The blood of the Yin is a holy item to suppress evil. This was taught to me by Master since I was young.

"Ahh!" The little ghost painfully kneeled on the ground and covered his face with his hands as he screamed. The maggots all over his body began to crawl outwards.

I have never seen such a disgusting scene before, and I immediately took two steps back in fear.

Seeing that I wasn't easy to deal with, the little ghost tore off a piece of the flesh on his face and a black color appeared on it. Then, he pounced towards the terrified little boy.

"Be careful —" I shouted loudly. In a split-second, I threw out my master's Lotus Spell from my bag.

When the Lotus Spell hit the little ghost's abdomen, its body immediately started to burn. The flames were different from normal flames, emitting a stench of corpses.

"AHH!"

Taking advantage of the opening, I immediately carried the little boy over.

After being hit by the Lotus Spell, this little brat was completely turned into ashes, unable to enter the cycle of reincarnation anymore.

"My child — my child —"

Suddenly, a strong wave of cold wind came along with a dense ghost aura that covered the sky.

A female ghost flew in from outside the courtyard and stood in front of the flames while screaming in pain.

I immediately stood up in alarm and took out the last magic tool I brought from my master, the Soul-Summoning Bell. I wonder if this thing will work. It's already rusted.

It was actually Jiang Yan!

So that little brat was actually the child that Jiang Yan died for unknown reasons a few years ago!

I looked at Jiang Yan in shock. I didn't expect that after not seeing him for just one night, the ghost aura on Jiang Yan's body would have become this strong.

I retreated backwards in fear. How the f * ck did I know that this little ghost was her child?

"They killed my child once. Now, kill him again!" Jiang Yan turned his stiff neck around, it was me who sewed that neck up for her!

I took a deep breath, "I... "I didn't know he was your child …"

"I'm going to kill you —" Jiang Yan turned his stiff bones and pounced at me.

With the intention to gamble, I raised the Soulreaper Bell in my hand and started to shake it in the air.

"Ah — —" The moment Jiang Yan heard that sound, she immediately held her head in pain.

As soon as I saw it was effective, I immediately shook the bell in my hand even more forcefully.

"You think …" Can you win me? Hahaha — — "Jiang Yan hugged his head in pain, and then, with great effort, he stood up straight. His bloody lips began to chant some sort of incantation.

In the blink of an eye, the street lamps in the courtyard were extinguished and a burst of flames erupted. Waves of cold ghost energy slowly emerged from the ancient well, emitting hissing sounds.

Pairs of skeletal hands stretched out from the well, followed by ghosts crawling out one after another.

There were actually so many ghosts living in the Jiang Family's house!

Cold sweat trickled down my back. My scalp tingled with numbness as I stood on the spot.

"Ha ha-ha — you deserve to die!" Jiang Yan bellowed.

The group of ghosts immediately attacked me.

Without caring about being afraid, I hastily dodged and threw out a bunch of beans that had been soaked in the black dog's blood. The group of ghosts felt pain and immediately stopped attacking.

"Destiny's Luck! Haha! That old man actually wants to use your blood to suppress me!" Jiang Yan walked towards me and muttered some words.

"Your father told me to take you in!" I coldly snorted and took out my dagger again.

"Haha, idiot!" However, Jiang Yan was not afraid of my blood at all, and started to laugh loudly, her laughter was sharp and ear-piercing, "He wants you to make a sacrifice for the spirits of the dead, to pay respects to this house, and when the sky turns bright, the formation will automatically activate. We can't leave, and you can forget about going out, hahaha —"

Boom — —

Like a clap of thunder, I was once again shocked on the spot.

I suddenly thought of what my master had told me about a change in feng shui that was passed down from ancient times.

In ancient times, some wealthy and aristocratic families, in order to maintain their own good fortune, or to change their own fortune, would raise some ghosts, just like how Thailand raised its own little ghost.

Those who were more daring would use their vengeful spirits to suppress the old mansion and use them to maintain the land under the old mansion!

No wonder!

The entire Jiang Family was filled with dark energy, and there were still so many vengeful spirits. So it turns out that one of them was using cruel means to force a living person to death, and then suppress their ghosts in the courtyard.

Presumably, Jiang Yan and her child were also among the victims! ~ It's just that I don't know why Jiang Yan ran out, that's why she has this way.

My lips quivered as I said, "There is always a debt to blame. There is no enmity between us, so don't look for me!"

"Hahaha, you killed my son, so I will definitely kill you to get revenge —"

With that, Jiang Yan started to attack me.

Suddenly, I remembered that the bite mark on my neck on the carriage had become hot and it started to emit red light as it shot towards the white-clothed female ghost's cannons. Thus, I immediately tore off my collar.

"Underworld King Ghost Seal?" Sure enough, when Jiang Yan saw the bite mark, she immediately retreated in fright.

However, even after waiting for a long time, the bite did not emit any light.

"Haha, this formation is precisely used to suppress you. The Ghost Seal on your body no longer has any use at all, hahahaha — —" Jiang Yan gloated as she laughed, but blood flowed from the corner of her eyes, "Go to hell!"

I clenched my fists. In this moment of life and death, I actually thought of that male ghost!

Didn't you say that you would look for me every night? Come at that time!

"How dare you!" Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed in the sky, and all the plants in the yard began to rustle from the ghost aura.

A burst of red light suddenly came from the sky, and instantly knocked Jiang Yan to the ground.

I looked at the man floating in the air with a pleasantly surprised expression. His black hair was scattered and black clothes were fluttering in the wind. Between his handsome features, there was currently an expression of anger.

"Grandpa Ghost, you finally came." I said in surprise.

"I will only say this once, my name is Chu Yu!" The man's long and narrow eyes looked at me as if they had crossed the sky.
