She rubbed the space between her eyebrows. This old woman had too many questions. It seemed that she would have to dress up when catching ghosts in the future.
When she reached Mrs. Liu’s door, Yun Qin took the key from her hand and gently twisted it. A gust of cold wind with a strong smell of a water ghost blew at the two of them.
Before Yun Qin entered the door, she wrapped herself and Mrs. Liu with her evil energy. Therefore, the water ghosts in the golden watch did not react to their approach.
Presently, it was not yet the time when ghosts’ powers were at their peak. Yun Qin looked around and picked a spot where she could see Mr. Liu lying down. She said in a low voice, “Stay here and observe the situation.”
Mrs. Liu wanted to say something, but Yun Qin’s gaze stopped her.
After sitting for a little while, Mrs. Liu almost fell asleep, and the black smoke around her became more and more intense.
It’s coming out! Yun Qin’s gaze focused as she carefully searched for the fluctuations in the air.
Yun Qin sensed dense evil energy drifting out from the safe. The room immediately filled with a thick fishy smell.
The ball of evil energy slowly drifted towards Mr. Liu.
Mrs. Liu also felt that something was wrong. She saw an unknown black substance floating in the air around her. She was so shocked that she wanted to call out to Yun Qin.
However, when she opened her mouth, she found that she could not make a sound.
Yun Qin glanced at her, indicating for her to watch in peace. 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖
The reason why Mrs. Liu could not speak was because Yun Qin cast a small Taoist “Silence Spell” on her. The reason why she was able to use that spell was because of Zhang Yuan.
Unfortunately, Yun Qin was half human-half ghost and she did not have Zhang Yuan’s talent to learn Taoist spells. Therefore, even if she had Zhang Yuan’s lifetime worth of cultivation, she could only cast small Taoist spells.
However, even if it was just small spells, Yun Qin was still very satisfied.
In Mrs. Liu’s vision, the bed seemed to be covered with a layer of black gauze. It was hazy and hard to see clearly. However, Mr. Liu seemed to have been awakened suddenly, and his eyes opened.
Immediately after, Mr. Liu puffed up his eyes and coughed violently, the same symptoms he had been having for a while. Then, he started to squirm. It looked like he was struggling and was very uncomfortable.
Was he suffering from an illness? Mrs. Liu was about to step forward to take care of him, but she realized that Yun Qin was still staring at a certain spot with a calm expression on her face.
Seeing this, Mrs. Liu could only stay where she was. Although she was grasping at straws initially, she could now clearly feel there was a strange aura around her.
It was the same chilling feeling she had when she passed by a mass grave at night when she was a child.
What happened next was something Mrs. Liu never expected.
As Mr. Liu’s reaction became more intense, their surroundings became colder. Suddenly, the dark mass turned into a bloated, fat man whose entire body was rotted away! 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦
This man was sitting on Mr. Liu’s body. His huge eyeballs were staring at Mr. Liu so intently as if they were going to pop out of his head. He used his fat hands to strangle Mr. Liu, causing Mr. Liu’s face to turn red.
“Bang!”
Mrs. Liu was so shocked that she knocked over the cup on the coffee table. The sound of ceramic shattering was very clear in the dead silence of the house.
The fat man who was strangling Mr. Liu suddenly turned his head, and his gaze quickly locked onto Mrs. Liu who was panicking.
At this moment, Mrs. Liu was so scared that she collapsed on the ground and subconsciously crawled backward.
If Mrs. Liu could speak, she would have screamed in a most terrifying manner instead of opening her mouth and realizing that she could not make any sound.
Then, the disgusting looking ghost roared and pounced at Mrs. Liu, who was so scared that she was about to pee her pants.
When the ghost pounced in front of her, Mrs. Liu could almost make out the moldy moss on the fat man’s face, the surging white maggots, and his skin that was soaked until it was white and cracked.
She rolled her eyes and was about to faint.
All of this was under Yun Qin’s control. Seeing that the visual effects were on point, Yun Qin decided to appear. The furious water ghost only then saw Yun Qin who was initially shrouded in black smoke. He didn’t even have time to react before he was hit by a flying ball of evil energy that she threw at him with overwhelming momentum.
This type of ghost already looked like that before it even became a ghost. Its skin and flesh were swollen from being soaked in water. It was the most disgusting kind of ghost.
Splat.. The water ghost smashed into the wall, and some yellowish-green pus was smashed out as well, splashing on the ground.
