Chapter 505: Departure



"Juexin, now!"

Tantai Guijing quickly retreated as he hollered. His actions were nimble and unlike that of an old man.

Tantai Juexin’s face was gloomy. A dagger covered in all sorts of inscriptions appeared on his hand and he charged towards Fang Yuan.

This dagger was one of the top 5 magical weapons in the Tantai Family! It possessed extremely strong cursing powers. A normal ghost would be completely dispersed by it and would disappear for a long period of time.

However, due to the indestructible characteristic of ghosts, they could not be completely killed.

Of course, the stronger the curse was, the more dangerous it was.

At this instant, Tantai Juexin’s right hand which was wielding the dagger had already turned into ghastly bones.

"Slash!"

The dagger glided across Tantai Mieming’s figure. However, there was no blood at all. A black shadow flashed past.

"Eagle Claw, strike!"

Tantai Juexin felt an immense pain at his abdomen. Even his strong and experienced body could not withstand such pain and he fell to the ground.

At the same time, a small silhouette moved rapidly around like a snake and dodged a few arrows.

’Tantai Family’s tools are mainly used against ghosts. Of course, even if normal human experts meet such weapons, they will still immediately lose control of their mind and be slaughtered. But, I am different!’

Fang Yuan had already understood most of Tantai Family’s exorcism techniques. Furthermore, his physical property was astounding. He could even use an evil ghost to attract the firepower!

Fang Yuan swiftly climbed over a wall. His body was already as light and nimble as a swallow. After he climbed over the wall and turned his head back, he saw the figure of the man that appeared to be frozen to death moving about within the family elders.

That man was different from Fang Yuan; he was really a ghost! Also, this man was definitely way beyond normal ghosts. Else, why would there be great expectations from the family for him to go against the curse of the door?

"Woong! Woong!"

An extremely chilly forcefield opened up. It was as though this realm had just turned into a world of ice and snow.

"Elder Seven, Eighteen?"

With just a breath, two family elders died at once. One of their body cracked into pieces while the other’s head fell down. The only similar thing was that purple-black frostbites appeared on both their bodies!

If this evil ghost was not present to hinder these family elders, these family elders would have immediately activated the other tricks they planted beforehand and be able to cause great trouble to Fang Yuan.

"This side... after climbing over this wall, it’s the kitchen area! It’s the least guarded!"

Fang Yuan quickly climbed over the walls and alleys. He had already known the landscape of the family mansion in and out. Thus, he could directly avoid numerous dangers and quickly arrived at the outermost wall.

"Eh?"

Suddenly, a terrifying undulation erupted behind him.

Fang Yuan turned around and looked towards the Hall of Sacrifice. A nebulous feeling kept spreading from there. Even the building began to turn illusionary.

"The netherworld? The curse of the door has erupted in advance?"

Even if Fang Yuan were to turn back and return now, he could not salvage the situation. Thus, he still decided to leave.

"The outermost wall is the Tantai Family’s last barrier, or should I say, a layer of enchantment! I’m definitely what it’s guarding against!"

Just by going near the wall, the cursed earthworm prints on Fang Yuan’s body began to activate. It was obvious that he was targeted.

"Physical destruction is totally useless... it might even be transferred away directly... To destroy it, I can only rely on the power of a ghost."

A cold smile appeared on Fang Yuan’s face. His pupils gleamed with a golden light.

He could sense that the powerful ghost he released was already nearby!

"The seal on the evil ghost released by my Spirit Sealing Body isn’t really removed. After a period of time, he will still be dragged back into my body..."

Fang Yuan observed the surroundings intently, "Of course, such a release was very dangerous too. This is because the powerful ghost released will definitely want to kill me in order to obtain real freedom!"

The usage of the Spirit Sealing Body was not without risks.

Furthermore, every time an evil ghost was released, it was like walking on a tightrope!

Of course, there was still some advantage in facing such an evil ghost that had been sealed before. For example, his sensing ability would be heightened.

Additionally, with the special ability of Fiery Golden Eyes, Fang Yuan could immediately see the footprints coming from the east side of the ground.

"His spiritual aura... has become weaker!"

By linking together his thoughts, Fang Yuan was even more shocked.

"He’s severely injured just from that short moment he had contact with the curse behind that door? What exactly is the curse of that door?"

Suddenly, the footprints had already arrived in front of Fang Yuan.

An immense sense of danger struck.

"Here!"

Fang Yuan immediately turned around. A swirl emerged in front of his chest as he reached out both his arms.

A purple-black evil ghost appeared and was immediately devoured by the swirl in front of Fang Yuan’s chest.

"It’s over!"

Fang Yuan looked at his arms. A black coloured layer had appeared on his arms and his arms went stiff. It was as though he was frostbitten.

"This physical property still has its dangers!"

With no hesitation, Fang Yuan placed both his arms on the wall and climbed over it.

"Bloop!"

It was as though he crossed through a layer of water. Wilderness appeared before Fang Yuan’s eyes. There was a dense forest not far away and a small road could be vaguely seen there.

"After making use of some of the evil ghost’s spiritual force, I indeed broke through the enchantment... Although the price I paid was to be frostbitten on both my arms!"

Fang Yuan looked behind. The entire Tantai Old Mansion had turned illusionary at this moment.

The faint silhouette of a door appeared in the centre of the mansion. It actually devoured the entire mansion!

Where the mansion once stood was now flat grounds. There were no buildings on it at all.

"It’s pulled into the netherworld? But with Tantai Family’s foundation and expertise, and this mansion’s defence, they could definitely survive for a while even though... many will die!"

If Fang Yuan was powerful enough, he might have chosen to stay and explore with Tantai Family. But now, he still turned around and walked away without hesitation.

"A new world, here I come..."

Fang Yuan looked at the sun in the skies and his eyes glistened.

...

Chen Residences.

The owner of Chen Residences was Chen Xinbo. Chen Xinbo was a successful businessman and he was said to have a net worth of over 8 digits. However, he retired at the peak of his career and built the residences in the rural village. He also brought along his family to live in seclusion.

Currently, Chen Xinbo, who was already 50 plus years old, had an uneasy look on his face as he looked at the person in front of him.

"Detective Ma, I’ll leave everything to you!"

"Rest assured! Mister Chen!"

This Detective Ma was a 30 plus years old man. He was donned in a jacket shirt and he had a pair of glasses on his face. He was astute and sharp looking. He then continued, "My detective corporation is meant to handle such troubles. You can be assured that I will settle everything related to the paranormal!"

There was a 6 years old girl beside him dressed in a cute princess dress. She had two braids and was licking a round lollipop. After hearing such, she rolled her eyes.

Of course, that expression of hers was not noticed by Chen Xinbo. Even if he saw her doing that, he would not be bothered.

Chen Xinbo grabbed Detective Ma’s hand shakily as though he saw his saviour, "Of course... I’ve heard about you from the newspaper! As long as you can settle the abnormalities in this area, the rewards would definitely satisfy you!"

"Tell me about what happened first! The more detailed, the better!"

Detective Ma raised his glasses.

"Okay. About a month ago, the subordinates of my residences said they saw the figure of a woman in white clothes... I obviously did not believe at first, but recently, her appearances became more and more frequent. I even saw her with my own eyes last week. Ever since that day, one of my servants disappeared. Even the police could not find her..."

Chen Xinbo sighed and rubbed his eyes.

"From then on, everyone in the residences was living in fear. Even I couldn’t handle these ghost rumours... thus, I approached your detective corporation."

"Female ghost in white clothes? Understood. What is the name of your missing servant? Can I take a look at her room later?"

Detective Ma replied.

"Of course you can!"

A tinge of happiness appeared on Chen Xinbo’s face, "Detective Ma, you have travelled here from afar, please take a good rest and have lunch first before starting work!"

Chen Xinbo left with his brows slightly loosened and hands behind his back.

"Clang!"

Detective Ma closed the door. He had an excited look on his face, "Haha... Xiaoling, you heard that? We are rich! That’s why I said, in such times, who would notice you if you don’t put up advertisements? This Chen Xinbo had obviously done bad deeds and is just scaring himself. Hehe... watch how I bleed his money!"

"Yes, yes, yes..."

The little girl stopped licking her lollipop and rolled her eyes, "You looked for people to make up stories on the newspaper just to attract such spendthrifts!"

"Hehe... there’s no case in this world that can’t be solved by me!"

Detective Ma was filled with pride. He then looked at the little girl ingratiatingly, "... As long as you help me! Xiaoling... you must help your father this time! Next time, I will give you 10 more lollipops every month!"

"At least 20 more!"

"I can’t, you must think about the cost required to run our corporation. At most 15 more!"

"Deal!"

Ma Xiaoling grinned from ear to ear. However, at the next moment, she became serious, "But, daddy, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be so simple here!"

It was really suspicious for such a normal little girl to think so deeply. However, Detective Ma who knew her daughter was mature for her age was not bothered, "How is it not simple, isn’t it just someone acting as a ghost to scare people?"

"No... I suspect there might be a real ’ghost’ here!"

A tinge of terror flashed past Ma Xiaoling’s face.

"What?"

Detective Ma almost jumped up and his volume increased by folds as he circled around, "What a loss! If I knew there were really ghosts here, I should have asked for more rewards from him..."

"Isn’t it too late to regret?"

Ma Xiaoling shrugged her shoulders. Suddenly, a white shadow flashed past her eyes.

It was the figure of a woman. Below her long hair was a pair of blood-red eyes.

"AHH!!!"

Ma Xiaoling screamed and hugged onto Detective Ma’s leg like a koala bear.

"What’s wrong?"

Detective Ma turned and saw nothing.

"This place... this place is very dangerous! Let’s leave!"

Ma Xiaoling grabbed tightly.

"We can’t, I already promised him. We can’t destroy the reputation of our detective corporation here!"

Detective Ma was troubled-looking as he continued, "Also, without this money, we can’t even pay the rent for our corporation. We will be homeless next month!"
