"Kacha!"

A shockingly loud sound made Chen Xinbo turn around. With a stern look, he shouted. "Who’s that?"

"It’s me... me... Haha, Mister Chen, the moon is really bright today, haha..."

Detective Ma stood out and nervously scratched his head.

Chen Xinbo seemed to have used too much strength from the shock of discovering that someone was spying on him. The head of the girl suddenly rolled to the ground and tumbled around. It was a skeleton with hair!

"Ah! Wei’er!"

Chen Xinbo let out a cry and quickly carried the skull in his hands before wiping the dust away from it. "Did it hurt? Be good, don’t cry! The pain will go away."

Looking at how Mister Chen was treating the skeleton, Detective Ma shuddered in fear.

...

"Sigh..."

It was nightfall and Uncle Chen was suffering from insomnia. He held a wine glass and sipped on wine as he reminisced about the past.

"Elder Mistress’s death was a huge blow to Mister Chen... From that day onwards, he was desolate and gave up on all of his business. Furthermore, he believed that monk, that he could really recall Elder Mistress’s soul with jade! Everyone in the residences were in fear and Missus Chen had pleaded her husband, but Mister Chen was still unwilling to leave..."

The Elder Mistress of the Chen Family was dead!

However, Chen Xinbo refused to accept this fact. He had even ordered the people of the residences not to speak a word about her death and everyone had to act as though Elder Mistress was still alive. This was a requirement for the ’ritual’!

He had spent almost half of his fortune buying rare and treasured jade rocks and was using them to create a spell capable of recalling a soul!

This was the truth about the Chen Residences!

"How can a dead person be revived? Master is crazy!"

Uncle Chen’s face was flushed as he mumbled to himself. "Even if her soul returns, it will only be a ghost, right? Everyone in the residences is already scared to their wits. Sigh, I need to look for an opportunity to advice Master about this!"

He did not realise that a pair of pale hands had landed on his shoulders. Suddenly, the pair of hands tugged up.

"Pa!"

The wine glass fell to the floor and shattered as Uncle Chen was lifted from the ground.

"Haa...."

His face was flushed from the alcohol and as he struggled, he could not force himself out of the pair of cold hands.

"Elder Mistress... Elder Mistress’s soul... let me go!"

His tears and mucus were flowing out as he spoke whatever he could think of.

However, that pair of hands held relentlessly. Finally, with a twitch, Uncle Chen had lost his breath.

"Bang!"

His corpse fell to the ground and the reflection in his eyeballs were...

...

"Detective Ma!"

Finally, Chen Xinbo had pieced the skeleton together and spoke without turning his head to look at Detective Ma.

"Ah... Mister Chen, yes!"

Detective Ma let out an embarrassing smile. It was none of his business that Mister Chen had this quirk to keep corpses.

However, if he wanted to be paid, he had to ensure that Chen Xinbo was happy.

"The real reason I hired you is for you to assist me in looking for my daughter’s soul! I’ve seen her... However, she is unwilling to see me! If you can let me see her once more, I am willing to pay whatever price you ask for!"

Chen Xinbo’s crazed look was a desperate one as well.

"Cough cough... Don’t worry, Mister Chen! I will do my best to accomplish it!"

Detective Ma adjusted his tie. Suddenly, he noticed a white shadow flashed by. "Gh... Ghost!"

His legs turned jelly as he collapsed to the ground. A strong sense of fear paralysed him.

"D*mn it d*mn it d*mn it... I have yet to repay my car loan. If I delay any longer, the bank will mortgage it, this is a huge loss..."

Unknowingly, this was the only thought which surfaced in his mind.

"Creak! Creak!"

On the other side of the room, a pair of pale hands appeared on the railing. Following which, there was a head full of long black hair.

A female ghost crawled into the room on all fours and there was a crackling sound as she made her way across the room.

"Wei’er? Is that you?"

Tears welled up in Chen Xinbo’s eyes as he rushed towards the ghost. "Are you here to visit Father?"

The female ghost raised her head, revealing bloodshot eyes and a pale face.

In that instant, Detective Ma felt a sense of familiarity looking at the face. If not for the eyes and the pale face, this lady might be beautiful.

"No... You are not Wei’er!"

Chen Xinbo slipped and fell to the ground. "You are.... Ahhhhhh!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Detective Ma realised what was happening. He quickly got up to his feet and ran like mad towards the stairs. "I’m doomed! My client is dead and I won’t get to earn anything!"

With quick steps, he made his way downstairs.

Initially, the lower level would be the living room which would link to the guest room.

However, this time, Detective Ma was shivering in fear. He looked towards Elder Mistress’s room and noticed a big pool of blood seeping out. A pale pair of hands were firmly planted on the door, leaving a bloodied palm print.

"This is none of my business!"

He was on the verge of crying as he rushed down the stairs.

When he arrived at the first floor, all he could see was the same corridor as upstairs. The ghost in white was advancing towards him.

"No... Don’t come over!"

Detective Ma shuddered as he looked towards the face of the female ghost.

"Get lost!"

At this point in time, an explosive exclamation was heard.

"Bang!"

Wood shavings flew about as a piece of the door was smashed on the female ghost. At the same time, Detective Ma seemingly heard his own daughter’s voice. "Father, let’s go!"

He stumbled his way and finally arrived at the living room downstairs.

Only now did he realise that his daughter, Ma Xiaoling was with another child. They were pulling Detective Ma’s hands, guiding him towards the exit.

"There’s a ghost! A ghost!"

Detective Ma started to scream at the top of his lungs.

"There’s no use. Other than the 3 of us, there are no more living humans in this residences."

Fang Yuan scoffed as he looked at his fist. "Is it... not strong enough?"

It was impossible for any physical object to cause harm to a ghost.

If Fang Yuan restored his cultivation as a True Divine to create the purest form of martial arts willpower, only then would he stand a chance of harming the ghost.

"A ghost from the outside world is already much stronger than the Demon Spirits of the Demonic Heart Realm. This realm is haunted..."

Fang Yuan took a quick look at his stats window.

If he were to use his special ability, he would be able to seal this ghost in him. However, he was not planning to do so.

"I am not desperate enough to rely on my special ability to survive. I will only use my Spirit Sealing Body when I am desperate... More importantly, I have to improve in my other abilities!"

Although the Tantai Family believed that it was impossible to kill spirits from the realm, Fang Yuan thought otherwise and even hoped to test it out by himself.

"What? There are no other survivors? Wait a minute, little child, who are you?"

Detective Ma started to stare at Fang Yuan suspiciously. "Are you eyeing on my daughter? Let me tell you, if you don’t have a betrothal gift worth at least a million dollars, don’t ever think about it..."

"Father!"

Ma Xiaoling rolled her eyes. "Is this the time to have this conversation?"

She realised that the female ghost had already come down from upstairs and were approaching them at a breakneck speed.

"Che!"

Fang Yuan scoffed and stopped in his tracks before staring at this man with a moustache. "Listen up, I am not interested in your daughter. I only saved you because your daughter has hired me for my services, and that is all! For saving you, the price you will have to pay will be to settle my identity issue and provide me with 3 meals and lodging!"

"What?"

Detective Ma scoffed in a high-pitched voice. "Dream on!"

"Oh!"

Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders. "If that is so, then you’re on your own! I am confident that this ghost will surely catch up to you guys!"

Detective Ma looked at Fang Yuan and the approaching ghost before breaking out in cold sweat. "Alright, I’ll promise you!"

"Very well, I believe you will not go back on your words. This is because you should fear me more than the ghost!"

Fang Yuan turned around and his joints started to crackle. "13 Successive Flying Eagle Strikes!"

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Gusts of wind started to rip even the floorboards apart. Wood shavings flew about as though a tornado was heading towards the female ghost.

"D*mn it!"

Witnessing this scene, Detective Ma rubbed his eyes in disbelief. "Where this this boy come from? With such a combat power, he must be even more powerful than the special forces, right?"

It wouldn’t be as surprising if Detective Ma were to witness this in a matured adult.

More importantly, how could such combat power be found in a young kid as old as his daughter?

Detective Ma felt that his view on the world was becoming obsolete.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Claw marks appeared on the pillars behind and the female ghost was nowhere to be in sight.

"Is it still not powerful enough..."

Fang Yuan composed himself as the wooden block in his hands crumbled into dust.

His stats were now comparable to a young adult. However, his combat prowess were undoubtedly the best in this realm as he represented the most powerful of humans.

Such rare martial arts was still rendered useless against the most ordinary of ghosts! How could the humans of this realm stand any chance against the ghost infestation?

"Must I... really use the Spirit Sealing Body?"

He knew that he could strengthen this physical property of his by sealing spirits.

"However, the more spirits I seal, the more danger I expose myself to. If I cannot sustain, I will immediately experience backlash and become the most devastating... monster!"

Fang Yuan’s eyes glistened. Suddenly, he rushed towards Ma Xiaoling and threw a test tube out.

"Whoosh!"

In mid-air, a pair of pale hands were drenched by the concoction from the test tube and started to smoke before retracting back.

"Thank... Thank you!"

Ma Xiaoling was stunned. If not for Fang Yuan, she would have been dead!

"It’s too early to thank me. Let’s talk about this after we leave the residences... Let’s hope that this is a ghost which follows rules!"

Fang Yuan gazed up at the sky. It was slowly brightening as daytime arrived.

Although ghosts were scary, their behaviors were predictable. For instance, they only haunt a certain area and mostly strike at night, laying low in the daytime.

This was not because they were restricted to do so, but it was merely their habits!

If one knew the habits of a particular ghost, one would be able to effectively deal with it!

An exorcist would be required to have good observation and judgemental skills. Of course, there were many who were overconfident with these qualities and were still killed by ghosts!
