Realm of the Night God

Chapter 80: Hes Here!

Yang Haoran firmly believed that his sensing ability hadn't gone awry. Night Watch's ability to perceive Yin was indeed precise, that much was certain.

However, the facts were undeniable, leaving no room for him to argue.

If Ma Ling drawing out the evil-dispelling array was just a joke and didn't possess the ability to sense spirits, then Wang Yiming's ghost chasing talisman was real and had indeed demonstrated its ability to track spirits before.

"Uncle, don't bother thinking about it. It seems like there are only those two spirits in the villa, both of which you've captured in the soul gathering bead. There's no other spirit here," Ma Ling said, patting Yang Haoran's shoulder lightly, feigning maturity. After a pause, he glanced at Master Wu and continued, "Old Master Wu, your household matters are sorted now. You can prepare the payment. I support any method of payment. Also... after such a tiresome afternoon, I'm a bit hungry. It's getting late too. Would you mind treating me to dinner? That wine at noon was quite nice, I really liked it."

As winter evenings fell early, gradually the outside world darkened.

"Of course, of course, Miss Ma Ling, rest assured. We have plenty of fine wine, I guarantee you'll be satisfied, I guarantee it!" Master Wu exclaimed happily. Witnessing the spirits in the villa being captured by Yang Haoran into the soul gathering bead, how could he not be pleased? Though there had been a minor hiccup in between, it seemed inconsequential to him as long as the ultimate goal was achieved.

Initially, he had some worries after listening to Yang Haoran's words, fearing that there might still be lingering spirits in the villa. However, an hour of thorough inspection yielded no discoveries, and Ma Ling and Wang Yiming had also employed their methods to eliminate the possibility of any remaining spirits in the house. This made him wonder if Yang Haoran's sensing ability had indeed gone awry.

Looking at the faintly glowing evil-dispelling array, the other members of the Wu Family also breathed a sigh of relief. In their eyes, Ma Ling's arrangement of the evil-dispelling array was full of mystery. Confirming that the house was free of malevolent spirits finally allowed them to set their anxieties at rest.

Among them, only Yang Haoran remained with a furrowed brow, lost in thought.

"Dear guests, you've worked hard today. We, the Wu Family, will remember this kindness. Whenever you need the assistance of the Wu Family, feel free to ask. I'll make arrangements for tonight's hospitality. I hope you won't delay," Master Wu said with a beaming smile.

"Let's go, let's go, stop dawdling. I'm starving," Ma Ling urged.

"I have other matters to attend to, so I won't be joining for dinner," Wang Yiming stated as he began to pack his things to leave.

Yang Haoran remained silent, neither agreeing nor refusing. He still wore a pensive expression, lost in his thoughts.

Seeing Wang Yiming preparing to leave, Master Wu was about to intervene with a smile, but at that moment, something strange happened.

Inside the evil-dispelling array, the previously motionless black cat, black dog, and big rooster suddenly became restless.

The cat yowled, the dog barked ferociously, and the rooster flapped its wings, all three directing their attention towards the entrance of the living room!

This sudden turn of events caused Master Wu's smile to freeze, and all eyes followed the gaze of the cat, dog, and rooster towards the entrance.

Yang Haoran seemed to sense something, his expression changing instantly. Ma Ling glanced at the entrance of the living room, then at the simple evil-dispelling array she had set up, suddenly understanding what was happening!

There was still a malevolent spirit, and it was approaching them!

Within the evil-dispelling array, the reactions of the cat, dog, and rooster grew stronger and more intense. Their cries grew louder and sharper, echoing throughout the living room. These sounds made Master Wu and the others feel a chill down their spines.

With a mournful cry, the big rooster suddenly collapsed, ceasing all movement. After a few slight tremors, it lay lifeless.

Next came a piercing cry from the cat. The big black cat's eyes rolled back, limbs twitched, and it inexplicably died.

Finally, the big black dog, after howling a few times, followed suit. It collapsed to the ground, limbs convulsing, foam bubbling from its mouth. In a matter of breaths, it too lost its breath and died!

The scene before them, even for ordinary people like Master Wu, was terrifying, let alone for Yang Haoran, a Night Watch.

"You just said that the stronger their reaction, the more powerful the malevolent spirit. Are their reactions strong enough now?" Yang Haoran's gaze fell on Ma Ling, his voice grave.

Ma Ling's mouth twitched slightly, losing his earlier casual demeanor. He retorted, "Come on, what reaction is stronger than death?"

The deaths of the cat, dog, and rooster caused the entire evil-dispelling array to collapse. The faint glow of the array vanished entirely, and even the lines Ma Ling had drawn with clear water disappeared along with the dissipation of the spiritual light. Apart from the dead cat, dog, and rooster, there was no trace of the array on the ground.

"You're right. It seems there's indeed a bigger threat!" Wang Yiming stopped packing his things, his already stern face now even darker.

"Master Wu, you all should move away quickly. This place..."

Before Yang Haoran could finish his sentence, a man's voice suddenly interrupted the room, halting his words.

"Father, haven't these three charlatans finished their nonsense yet?"

With the sound of the voice, a man entered the living room, none other than Second Son Wu, who had been absent from the villa all afternoon.

The faces of everyone present changed instantly!

The change in the expressions of the Wu Family members was due to Second Son Wu's words being too offensive. What did he mean by charlatans? By saying this, he had completely offended Yang Haoran and the others. Although the Wu Family was wealthy and influential, it was definitely not wise to offend people with such special abilities. If they angered them, they would surely suffer.

Yang Haoran, Ma Ling, and Wang Yiming's expressions changed, but not because of Second Son Wu's words. Instead, their gazes all landed on Second Son Wu.

"You rascal! Shut your mouth! You only bring trouble! Are you trying to infuriate me?" Master Wu scolded, feeling an urge to throttle his disobedient second son.

Back when he could still till the land, Master Wu had wanted to have another child, but Second Son Wu had exhausted him. He couldn't risk having another child like him.

"I say, Dad, I don't believe in all this supernatural nonsense. Neither do you, right? How did things turn out like this? This is completely unlike you."

"You've all been talking about seeing unclean things in the house lately. While I've also encountered some strange incidents in this villa, they weren't as mysterious as you described. Many things can be explained scientifically. In my opinion, our family must have attracted some enemies who are trying to scare us!" Second Son Wu, reeking of alcohol from an afternoon of heavy drinking, was now emboldened, daring to say anything.

This Second Son Wu was always arrogant and domineering. He used to restrain himself more when Master Wu was around, but now, after drinking, he didn't even care about his father's face.

"Get out! Right now!" Master Wu roared.

The strange occurrences in the house had already left him mentally exhausted, and now his son not only failed to help but also caused trouble here, leaving him trembling with anger!

"I went out for a drink this afternoon, crashed the car. I came back to get another car. I'll take the keys and leave, won't bother you guys," Second Son Wu impatiently said before preparing to return to his bedroom to retrieve the keys.

"Uncle! You're too much! How can you speak to Grandpa like that?" Wu Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it anymore, loudly rebuking Second Son Wu.

Second Son Wu paused in his steps, frowning angrily at Wu Xiaoxiao, and snapped, "Even if I don't really believe in ghosts at home, if they do exist, it's because of you. How dare you accuse me? Besides, I'm your uncle. What right do you, a junior, have to speak to me like this?"

"You..." Wu Xiaoxiao was speechless, her heavy breathing making it difficult to speak due to her obesity.

Second Son Wu snorted coldly, no longer paying attention to the others as he walked towards his bedroom.

Actually, Second Son Wu didn't entirely disbelieve in the haunting at home. Just now, he also mentioned that he had encountered some strange incidents in the villa recently, which could be explained scientifically. However, it was just talk. Even he didn't fully believe it. The reason he said those words in front of everyone just now was just to vent his various frustrations under the influence of alcohol – frustration towards Master Wu and towards this household!

Master Wu was deeply annoyed by his son's behavior, but Yang Haoran, Ma Ling, and Wang Yiming didn't bother to intervene with Master Wu at this moment.

"Have you sensed it? There's a heavy Yin Qi on him!" Wang Yiming's gaze turned to Yang Haoran, his expression serious as he spoke.

"You sensed it too?"

"Uncle is from the Yin Division, do you think he wouldn't sense it?" Ma Ling glanced at Wang Yiming, somewhat amused.

Ignoring Wang Yiming's attempt to speak again, Yang Haoran's expression changed once more, cutting off Wang Yiming's words.

"He's here!"

The solemn reminder made Ma Ling and Wang Yiming feel puzzled. They understood the meaning of those three words, but they didn't sense the exact location of the other party.

Since Second Son Wu returned, the villa had been permeated with a strong Yin Qi. Ma Ling and Wang Yiming could sense this strong Yin Qi, but they couldn't determine its source.

Regarding their ability to perceive Yin, Ma Ling and Wang Yiming each had their own methods, but compared to Yang Haoran's ability, they fell short.

Just as the two were puzzled, footsteps approached. From the sound of it, the person seemed to be wearing high heels. Once again, everyone's gaze turned towards the entrance of the living room.
