Spirit Hunters of Maoshan Sect

Ms . Xie frowned, shook her head, and said, “I have no idea . I started getting this weird feeling in my body two to three months ago . I also had some very scary encounters then, but I really don’t remember offending any spirits . ”

Ye Shaoyang nodded . It was difficult for normal people to realize when they offended a spirit .

“Such a powerful spirit would not just come after you for no reason . Think carefully, Ms . Xie . Do you remember doing anything out of the ordinary around the time you started experiencing the weird feeling? If you can’t recall, you can leave now . ”

“Leave? If I leave, then that spirit will come after me right?”

After seeing Ye Shaoyang nod his head, Ms . Xie immediately said nervously, “Then, I don’t want to leave . ”

“So you want to stay at my place?”

“Can’t I?” Ms . Xie pleaded .

“Of course not!” Ye Shaoyang answered immediately, “I am going to another province tomorrow to handle something important . The thing haunting you is not an easy catch, so I think it’s best that I help you after I come back . ”

“Ah?” Ms . Xie was not going to give up so easily, so she tried pleading again, “Please don’t go, I’ll pay you and hire you as my personal bodyguard . ”

Personal bodyguard…

Ye Shaoyang shook his head and said, “It’s not like that . The thing I have to handle is very important . However, since I have promised to help you, I’ll definitely give you a hand . ”

As he said that, he took out a necklace with a bloodstone on it . Then, he cut his finger and dropped a bit of blood on the stone .

“Wear this around your neck and try to let the stone lay as close to your heart as possible . The stone will protect your heart and three mortal lamps . It’ll work for at least half a month, during which no spirit will dare to get close to you . After half a month, I should be able to finish what I need to do . I’ll contact you then . ”

Ms . Xie held the necklace carefully like something precious, “You’re sure this thing will protect me?”

“Relax, Ms . Xie . I still want to make money off you . ”

Ms . Xie was scared Ye Shaoyang would not keep his promise, so she insisted that she give him a deposit of a hundred and fifty thousand yuan . Ye Shaoyang initially wanted to reject her offer, but seeing her determination, he had no choice but to accept it .

“What’s your given name?” Ye Shaoyang took out his phone and to save her contact .

Ms . Xie looked at both Xiao Ma and Old Guo and said, “Just key in Xie for now . I’ll tell you my name next time . ”

That secretive?

Ye Shaoyang wanted to continue asking . However, Tang Hai walked over and bowed to him .

“Mr . Ye, I’m truly sorry for my actions . I do hope you can forgive me . Normally, I am not like that . It’s just that I’ve been visiting a lot of so-called sorcerer\'s lately, and most of them are conmen . So…”

“I understand,” Ye Shaoyang pat his shoulder and told Ms . Xie, “You can go now . I’ll let you know when I get back . Also, try to stay in crowded places . It’ll help . ”

Ms . Xie nodded, and even though she was reluctant to leave, she knew she couldn’t persuade Ye Shaoyang to help her right now . Finally, Ms . Xie thanked him, took the bloodstone necklace and left .

Ye Shaoyang closed the door with a serious expression .

Old Guo immediately asked, “Junior Brother, what kind of spirit is it?”

“I don’t know . The smell was not familiar at all . It seemed like an uncommon spirit or demon, but it definitely had a high level of cultivation!” Ye Shaoyang was in deep thought, “She must have done something special because this is no common spirit . ”

Xiao Ma laughed and said, “Little Ye, didn’t you say you wanted to rest after Madam Chee?”

“Well, hunting down evil beings is my job . Plus, she came to find me . I couldn’t just reject her . ”

“Yeah, right,” Xiao Ma looked at him and said, “I think it’s because you wanted that three hundred thousand . ”

“Erm . . . that’s one of the reasons,” Ye Shaoyang felt slightly embarrassed .

Then, Xiao Ma frowned and said, “But there’s something strange about this . Who is that rich woman? She hid her face and didn’t even want to reveal her name . Why be so secretive?”

This was also something that puzzled Ye Shaoyang, but he didn’t want to think about it for now . They cleaned up the dirty floor and wall and released the dream-eating spirit .

It lay on the floor trembling . It was so weak that it couldn’t even speak human language . It only looked pitifully at Ye Shaoyang to plead for forgiveness .

Ye Shaoyang held it in place with a talisman paper and used a hand to press its head down . He released his Gang Qi to examine it . After a while, he sighed and said, “This thing has never killed a human . ”

“So what?” Xiao Ma asked .

“Justice must be upheld . Even though it had ill intentions, it did not kill anyone . That’s why I can’t use it to test the new talisman paper . If I kill it, then I’ll be at fault . ”

After explaining, he turned to the spirit and said, “I’ll spare you this time and send you back . You’d better cultivate normally, or you’ll see your end!”

Even though the spirit could not speak, it understood what Ye Shaoyang meant . It nodded happily .

Ye Shaoyang took out a piece of blank talisman paper, used some of his blood, and burned it . The spirit immediately swallowed the ashes and a green glow immediately came out of its body .

Because its cultivation was low, the cleansing was quick, and soon, it disappeared .

“What happened?” Xiao Ma asked .

“He sent it back to the underworld,” Old Guo explained . “It was the same with the river spirit . Congratulations, Junior Brother . Now, you have another spirit servant . It might become helpful in the future . ”

Ye Shaoyang humphed and said, “These weak spirits are useless . ”

Old Guo said, “Well, you never know . After it goes back to cultivate, it might become a Night Spirit King . ”

“Even then it would still be too weak,” Ye Shaoyang said .
