Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department-Chapter 609 - 607: Safe and Sound

"What's there to be proud of?

A bunch of worthless losers, always bullying me."

The Fire Spirit gritted his teeth and shouted resentfully, "Once I'm powerful, I'll definitely destroy your entire Fire Element clan."

In truth, he himself was also part of the Fire Element clan.

These words, he only dared to say after those Evil Spirits had left. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Much of his rage was actually because of Mo Lin.

He deliberately let Mo Lin overhear him, wanting to express that he didn't get along with the Evil Spirits.

"You saw it too, I'm being ostracized by my own kind. I need your help," the Fire Spirit said slowly to Mo Lin.

"What can I help you with?" Mo Lin asked the Fire Spirit.

"Give me Evil Spirit Qi, and take me to the East District.

I've heard there are many Evil Spirits in the East District. Once I get there, I'll hunt Evil Spirits and gain Evil Spirit Qi to strengthen myself," the Fire Spirit expressed his thoughts to Mo Lin.

Mo Lin's eyes gleamed brightly.

The Fire Spirit hunting Evil Spirits—just what Mo Lin needed to deal with Evil Spirits, a common enemy for both.

Of course, Mo Lin couldn't reveal this.

"I don't trust you," Mo Lin said bluntly to the Fire Spirit.

"I can make a contract with you to assure you I won't harm you.

I just want revenge."

Hearing about a contract, Mo Lin became interested and asked the Fire Spirit, "How do we make this contract?"

Just as Mo Lin finished speaking, the Fire Spirit grabbed Mo Lin's hand and then cut Mo Lin's index finger.

Blood trickled slowly from Mo Lin's finger.

The blood fell onto the Fire Spirit's palm.

In the next moment, Mo Lin felt a strange connection with the Fire Spirit.

The feeling was quite mysterious.

Moreover, Mo Lin distinctly felt that if the Fire Spirit harbored murderous intentions towards him, this power would backlash against him.

"Pleasure working with you," Mo Lin smiled at the Fire Spirit.

At least for Mo Lin, he now had an alien ally.

Mo Lin opened his arms and said slowly to the Fire Spirit, "You can take the Evil Spirit Qi yourself."

The Fire Spirit didn't hold back; he placed his fingers on Mo Lin's chest, and a white mist-like substance flowed slowly out and into the Fire Spirit's palm.

The next moment, the Fire Spirit swallowed this orb of white mist in one gulp.

"Thank you."

Leaving these words to Mo Lin, he sat cross-legged on the ground as if refining the Evil Spirit Qi.

The next period was rather dull for Mo Lin.

Mo Lin had to stay there for three days.

With nothing else to do, Mo Lin started studying the Three-Headed Six-Armed Dharma Technique.

Meanwhile, Mo Lin also tried to refine the Heaven-Filling Stone he had obtained earlier.

"Patter patter..."

Panic-driven footsteps echoed from outside the cave.

It sounded like someone was fleeing in a panic.

A long-haired woman with disheveled hair, with bloodstains on her, seemed to be frantically hiding from something, having lost her shoes in the process.

Upon seeing the cave, she instinctively hid inside.

This woman, Mo Lin recognized; on the ship earlier, she was the only one who warned Mo Lin that he carried an Evil Spirit aura and would attract Evil Spirits.

This woman was named Lan Yuyan.

Lan Yuyan was currently being hunted by Evil Spirits.

Everyone in her team was dead.

Only she, with the aid of her life-saving Magical Treasure, narrowly escaped the ordeal.

After entering the cave, Lan Yuyan's heart skipped a beat.

She witnessed an Evil Spirit standing right in front of her.

Moreover, this Evil Spirit was also staring at her.

These Evil Spirits were too easy to recognize.

They looked completely different from ordinary people.

Their most noticeable feature was an unusually large rectangular head.

Instinctively wanting to leave, Lan Yuyan found that it was too late.

In an instant, the Fire Spirit lunged in front of Lan Yuyan, gripping her neck tightly.

Lan Yuyan had no ability to resist in the Fire Spirit's grasp.

"Don't kill her," Mo Lin stopped the Fire Spirit.

Hearing Mo Lin's words, the Fire Spirit let go.

He then asked nothing further and returned to his spot to meditate.

Lan Yuyan swallowed nervously.

She looked at Mo Lin, then again at this Evil Spirit.

She found it hard to digest what she had just witnessed.

How could a human and an Evil Spirit be together?

And this Evil Spirit seemed unwilling to harm Mo Lin and obedient to him.

Lan Yuyan had a thousand questions swirling in her mind.

Suppressing her questions, she thanked Mo Lin, "Thank you."

Afterward, Lan Yuyan cautiously stayed by Mo Lin's side.

Being a smart person, she knew that there were some things better left unsaid.

Questions that shouldn't be asked were best left unasked.

Three days quickly passed.

Mo Lin spent the three days peacefully there.

After bidding farewell to the Fire Spirit, Mo Lin chose to leave.

The Fire Spirit left a mark on Mo Lin, indicating he would seek out Mo Lin once he had resolved the matters here.

At dawn.

A beam of sunlight shone through the treetops onto Mo Lin.

Mo Lin retraced his steps out.

As Mo Lin neared the exit,

the number of corpses increased.

It seemed each body had been gnawed upon, dying horribly.

Traces of dried blood were still visible on the ground.

Lan Yuyan followed behind Mo Lin, clearly aware that without Mo Lin's protection, she would've ended up just like those people, dead here.

Upon reaching the exit, Mo Lin saw the large ship he had arrived on.

A dozen or so severely injured people sat in front of the ship.

At this moment, both Mo Lin and Lan Yuyan stood out conspicuously.

Lan Yuyan looked a bit haggard but was unharmed.

As for Mo Lin, the scene was even more extraordinary.

His entire body was intact.

Other than his slightly oily hair, there was no sign of distress at all.

To those unaware, it seemed like Mo Lin had come for a vacation.

Mo Lin formed a stark contrast with the people in front of him.

Even Tang Yu showed a look of surprise.

Out of the hundreds who had come,

many were much stronger than Mo Lin.

Among those who left the Evil Temple unscathed, Mo Lin was the first.

"Kid, didn't you encounter any Evil Spirits?" a man in a black robe asked Mo Lin with suspicion.

"I did encounter them, but they didn't harm me," Mo Lin answered truthfully.

"Evil Spirits didn't harm you?"

The man in black scoffed, "Kid, don't lie. Evil Spirits are man-eating monsters.

How could they possibly not harm you?"

"I know you have some skills, but don't boast."

Mo Lin shrugged helplessly; these people didn't believe him, so he simply kept quiet.

Suddenly... Mo Lin's pupils contracted sharply.

Ahead, a young man dressed in white was slowly approaching, holding the head of an Evil Spirit in his right hand.

This young man had killed an Evil Spirit.

Even more shocking to Mo Lin was that the young man's white attire was spotless.

The young man dropped the Evil Spirit's head onto the ground and then seated himself on the spot.

Though he said nothing, as soon as he appeared with the Evil Spirit's head, everyone present felt a sense of awe.

Even Mo Lin was somewhat stunned when he saw him.
