The SUV stopped in front of a lavishly decorated villa, and a few people got out of the car.
By this ti, the vicinity of the villa had already been cordoned off by the police, and many people were whispering to each other nearby.
Tan Long led the group inside when a police officer approached them.
"Captain Tan, you've arrived." The officer handed Tan Long a cigarette and said with a smile.
"What's the situation, Captain Li?" Tan Long asked.
Captain Li sighed, "The case likely happened last night. It's a mass murder, eighteen mbers of a family, all dead. The scene of death is particularly grueso."
Just then, several nurses carried out a body. Tan Long walked over and lifted the cloth covering the corpse.
He saw that the deceased was a woman, her eyes wide as if she had seen sothing horrific.
"Ghostly energy." Tan Long frowned and covered the body with the cloth again.
"How does it look, Captain Tan?" Captain Li asked.
"It must be the work of a fierce ghost. Have your n evacuate the area," Tan Long said in a grave tone.
"Alright!" Captain Li's face changed upon hearing the word 'fierce ghost.'
The two had collaborated many tis, so he knew Tan Long's judgnt was never off.
Soon all the police within the villa withdrew, and Tan Long, followed by Lin Chen and the others, entered the villa.
At this mont, the villa was empty, blood stains everywhere, and the desolate atmosphere of the villa made it exceptionally eerie.
Tan Long walked into the living room and said to everyone, "Yin Hong, check the second floor. Kate, go to the third floor. Mu Tong, stay with
in the living room. Lin Chen, take a look in the backyard."
In Tan Long's mind, the ghost must be in the villa, making the backyard the safest place.
Lin Chen followed the corridor into the villa's backyard, where it was silent, a straight path under the shade of trees leading to a courtyard.
What was that place?
Driven by curiosity, Lin Chen followed the path toward the courtyard.
Pushing open the bamboo gate covered with vines, Lin Chen couldn't help feeling a chill of cold wind on him.
Stepping into a yard full of weeds, Lin Chen was startled.
He opened his Third Eye!
Once his Third Eye was opened, Lin Chen saw the area was filled with ghostly mist. Suddenly feeling a chill in his heart, lightning flashed in his palm as he violently smashed it behind him.
"Giggle! You actually found ."
A blood-red specter appeared before Lin Chen.
A fierce ghost, Lin Chen was taken aback.
"Little guy, I'm very curious, how did you find ?" the red specter asked coldly, licking its blood-red tongue.
"Hmph, that's none of your business. You killed so many people, you deserve to die!" Lin Chen said coldly.
"They all deserved to die. Oh, and to correct you, I'm already dead." The red female ghost said with a cold laugh.
"Since you're already dead and still causing harm in the human world, I'll make sure your soul is utterly dispersed," Lin Chen said, his eyes carrying a hint of chilliness.
"The family in the car hit , and I wouldn't have died had they taken
to the hospital. But they threw
into a valley, leaving
to beco a wandering, lonely spirit!"
After hearing the female ghost's story, Lin Chen also felt so sympathy.
"Since you've taken your revenge, I can let you off. Return to the forest; stop endangering the human world," Lin Chen urged.
"Giggle, I can absorb more yang essence here, and cultivate at several tis the speed than in the forest. Why should I go back?"
Lin Chen shook his head. The female ghost might have been a victim once, but now, consud by resentnt, she had beco a vicious, fierce ghost.
"In that case, I have no choice but to disperse your soul!" Lin Chen said coldly.
"Giggle, after I absorb your yang essence, my strength will surely increase further. Little guy, let's see what abilities you really have!" said the red ghost as her long tongue suddenly shot out towards Lin Chen.
So fast, Lin Chen's heart trembled, and he quickly retreated.
But the blood-red tongue of the female ghost was even faster, and it was about to entangle Lin Chen.
"Thunderbolt!"
With a roar, a net of lightning in Lin Chen's hand suddenly wrapped around the blood-red tongue.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!"
Following the sound of electricity, the terrifying blood tongue finally stopped just inches from him.
"Good, I've blocked her," Lin Chen sighed in relief.
"You think your thunder and lightning can stop ?" The red female ghost suddenly gave a sinister laugh, and her long tongue broke through the net of lightning, shooting out again.
"Damn it!"
Lin Chen was shocked and wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.
"Ice Shield!" Just at that mont, accompanied by a crisp, delicate shout, an ice wall quickly ford in front of Lin Chen.
"Lin Chen, move out of the way!" Yin Hong yelled to Lin Chen.
"Bang!" The blood-red tongue was stopped by the ice wall.
Crack, crack, the ice wall, under the attack of the red ghost, was filled with cracks in just a few seconds.
Lin Chen took this opportunity to leap out the instant the ice wall shattered.
"Phew!" Lin Chen finally took a long breath after dodging the red ghost's blood tongue attack.
Tan Long, with an apologetic face, said, "I didn't expect this vicious ghost to be hiding here. It's good that we arrived in ti, Lin Chen, are you alright?"
"I'm fine!" Lin Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Indeed, the vicious ghost was not sothing he could handle alone. Lin Chen had no chance in the short fight just now. If it hadn't been for Tan Long and the others arriving in ti, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The vicious ghost, seeing its attack broken, beca furious, "You dare to spoil my plan, I want you dead, all of you dead."
Along with a wail, the ghost transford into a cloud of blood mist and charged towards everyone.
"Demon Suppressing Tower!" Tan Long roared.
A stone tower descended from the sky, pressing the blood mist right below it.
"Let
out, you abominable humans." The suppressed ghost scread and struggled, causing cracks to appear on the stone tower.
"Vines entangle!"
With a shout, Kate took action, and vines wrapped around the ghost again as the stone tower shattered.
"The vicious ghost had just shattered the tower only to be trapped by the vines once more."
"Lin Chen, use your lightning magic to stun her. I can't hold on much longer!" Kate said through gritted teeth.
Lin Chen nodded and leaped up: "Thunderbolt!"
Accompanied by the sound of thunder, a purple orb of light exploded above the ghost's head!
A net of electricity instantly bound the red ghost.
"Ah, ah!"
The female ghost let out a series of miserable screams.
"Cold Ice Slash!"
"Fla Burst!"
"Earthquake!"
The other three took action simultaneously.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, the female ghost was reduced to ashes.
A spirit floated out and was absorbed by Lin Chen into the prison of ti.
"Haha, we've finally completed another job. Lin Chen, I didn't expect you to perform so well, not like a newbie at all!" Tan Long laughed and patted Lin Chen's shoulder.
If he knew that Lin Chen had single-handedly slain a Demon King, he would likely be astounded.
"Mu Tong also did well, a bit nervous, but being so calm during your first ghost kill is already quite comndable," Tan Long said with a smile.
Mu Tong shyly nodded, "Thank you, captain. I will continue to work hard."
"Brat, next ti you spot a target rember to hit the alarm. Do you really think your tal nature is invincible?" Yin Hong said with a cold voice.
Lin Chen's face turned red, and he nodded, after all, they had just saved him.
That's when Kate patted Lin Chen's shoulder, "Don't mind her, Yin Hong sister is all bark but a softie at heart; she's actually really nice."
After slaying the ghost, the group left the villa.
"Tonight's on . Let's go to KTV!" Tan Long laughed boldly.
"Captain, I have so family matters to attend to; do you mind if I leave early?" Mu Tong asked with a flushed face.
Tan Long, sowhat embarrassed, slapped his forehead, "I forgot you have to take care of your aunt!"
That's when Lin Chen smiled, "Little Tong, I know a bit about dicine; let
co with you and take a look at your aunt."
"Really!" Mu Tong's eyes lit up.
The two said goodbye to Tan Long and the others and took a ride to the hospital.
Watching their departing backs, Tan Long's eyes carried a hint of confusion, "Just now, Lin Chen didn't seem to use the Transformation Powder, so how could he see the ghost?"
