Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department-Chapter 462 - 460: A Perfect Curtain Call, Mo Lin’s Victory
Mo’s body lay on the ground, unable to move.
Mo suddenly felt a warmth spreading across his body, as if something like warm water was splashed on Mo’s chest.
It’s blood... Mo immediately realized.
At that moment, Mo felt his head spinning, a woozy sensation overwhelmed him.
Mo couldn’t resist the heavy sleepiness and fell asleep.
He didn’t know how long he had slept.
Mo suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
The pain on his skin had disappeared.
It was as if he had never been injured, Mo glanced at his own arm.
The skin was intact.
The previously cracked skin had inexplicably all healed.
"You’re finally awake." Zhu Ci saw that Mo had woken up and breathed a deep sigh of relief.
"It’s good you’re awake... it’s good... you nearly scared me to death."
Fortunately, he was quick-witted, after leaving Hongzhou, he immediately went to Beihai to find Gen Minmin.
Ready for the worst-case scenario, if Mo were to die, Gen Minmin would exchange her life with Mo’s.
Mo looked into the distance, on the ground lay a corpse of someone he did not recognize. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
A layer of white cloth covered the corpse.
At the moment he saw the corpse, Mo had a rough idea in his heart.
Mo prepared to lift the white cloth to see who had died inside.
Zhu Ci suddenly grabbed Mo’s wrist, persuading Mo, "That’s Gen Minmin’s corpse, don’t look, I fear you won’t be able to take it."
He was worried if Mo saw Gen Minmin’s body, it would be a visual shock and he’d be upset.
Zhu Ci didn’t explicitly say, but Mo understood.
His injuries had all been transferred to Gen Minmin.
Gen Minmin had given her life to Mo.
Gen Minmin was just an ordinary person, not even a cultivator.
The cracked skin injuries were caused by Nvwa, they couldn’t be healed or treated.
Naturally, she couldn’t withstand the pain from the cracked skin, so she committed suicide.
"Where’s Gen Shuanglong’s body?" Mo asked Zhu Ci.
Mo feared someone had stolen Gen Shuanglong’s body and would use special methods to resurrect him, which would be troublesome.
Theoretically, the dead cannot be resurrected.
But... Mo had experienced too much, anything was possible.
So it’s better to be cautious.
"It’s at the door." Zhu Ci pointed toward the door as he spoke to Mo.
So Mo went to the door and saw Gen Shuanglong’s body.
Even though Gen Shuanglong was dead, the unwillingness on his face remained.
As if he felt he died unjustly.
Mo raised his right hand, using the Netherworld’s Nether Fire to burn Gen Shuanglong’s body.
He had to reduce Gen Shuanglong’s body to ashes.
The terrifying flames burned atop Gen Shuanglong’s body.
Gen Shuanglong’s body was very resistant to burning; the flames burned for more than three hours until his body was reduced to a pile of ash.
Gen Shuanglong’s ashes were carried away by the wind, dissipating into the air.
Mo suddenly noticed Dao Wuxuan’s figure.
He didn’t know when he had arrived.
Dao Wuxuan gently took a small pinch of the ashes, saying slowly to Mo, "He was my master, I want to bury him.
This little bit of ash won’t cause any trouble, my master cannot be resurrected."
Following this, Dao Wuxuan took out a broken token, saying softly to Mo, "This is my master’s Life Plate. His Life Plate is shattered. Even a god could not save him."
Dao Wuxuan said all this to put Mo at ease.
"Make sure not to lose that Jade Token," he advised.
The Jade Token Dao Wuxuan referred to is the one that was found on Gen Shuanglong, the one the size of Gen’s Thumb, taken by Nvwa.
Dao Wuxuan said to Mo slowly, "You can now leave Hongzhou. With my master’s death, all the ghost souls of the Gen Family have returned to the Gen Family Ancestral Hall.
Currently, outside Hongzhou, there are no more ghosts from the Gen Family. You can leave now."
Previously, the Gen Family’s ghosts could leave the Gen Family Ancestral Hall and Hongzhou because of Gen Shuanglong’s help.
Gen Shuanglong had used some methods to free those ghosts from some restrictions.
But now that Gen Shuanglong is dead, all those methods have vanished.
The ghosts of the Gen Family can only return to the Gen Family Ancestral Hall that seals them.
"Brother Mo, should we exterminate the Gen Family?" Zhu Ci asked Mo.
"We’ll see."
Previously, Mo wanted to annihilate the Gen Family.
But after hearing what Gen Minmin said, Mo changed his mind; he decided to meet Gen Minmin’s brother.
Whether to destroy the Gen Family or plan something else would depend on meeting Gen Minmin’s brother first.
Mo naturally had to repay this kindness from Gen Minmin.
Zhu Ci glanced at Gen Minmin’s corpse on the ground in the distance and sighed inwardly.
Gen Minmin used her life to extend the Direct Lineage for her brother.
To find a path for her brother.
To face death calmly is not something everyone can do.
Unexpected death doesn’t matter.
Few can knowingly walk towards death, yet Gen Minmin accomplished it.
Mo glanced in the direction of the Gen Family and slowly left.
With Gen Shuanglong dead, the Gen Family’s peak fighting power had fallen.
The Gen Family would certainly act more cautiously during this time.
At least they would not act against Mo lightly.
...
The Gen Family.
A startled cry spread through the entire Gen Family.
"Something happened... dead... the Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy is dead."
This voice, like a thunderclap, struck the heads of all Gen Family members.
"Dead... Elder Long’s Life Plate shattered, he’s dead."
Upon hearing this news, Geng Hong was like being struck by lightning, collapsing directly to the ground.
His eyes were dazed.
"Dead? How could he be dead?
Even Cui Xinyun couldn’t kill the Elder, how could Mo kill the Elder?
Mo clearly isn’t even proficient in the Immortal Technique, how could he kill the Elder?"
Despair showed deep within Geng Hong’s eyes.
Gen Shuanglong’s death was as devastating to the Gen Family as the collapse of heaven.
"Go have all the Gen Family members come to the main hall," Geng Hong instructed the man beside him.
"As you command."
The man nodded and then left.
.....
Mo and Zhu Ci were leaving Hongzhou.
Now, besides the Gen Family, there was no one left in Hongzhou.
Zhu Ci carried a large red coffin by himself, walking behind Mo.
He was acting as a laborer beside Mo.
The person inside the coffin was Gen Minmin.
Mo planned to take Gen Minmin’s body back to Beihai and hand it over to her brother.
The two were preparing to leave along West County.
When they were tired of walking, they found a random place to rest.
Suddenly, voices of conversation came from afar, and Mo and Zhu Ci opened their eyes simultaneously.
"Senior sister, for such a small matter in Hongzhou, there’s no need for you to come personally, we can handle it." This was a man’s voice.
"This mission concerns the Celestial Heart Bureau’s reputation; leaving you to handle it worries me." A woman’s voice replied slowly.
It was unexpected that someone voluntarily came to Hongzhou, which surprised Mo a little.
Knowing that Evil Spirits appeared in Hongzhou, everyone would rather flee from Hongzhou.
No one was willing to come to Hongzhou voluntarily.
