Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department

Chapter 146: Back from the Dead?


"I'm certain," Wei Xun replied confidently.

"Impossible!" Mo Lin firmly said to Wei Xun, "Your grandfather has been dead for at least a day."

"No way! I just picked him up from the station this afternoon, and he seemed quite normal then," Wei Xun said slowly.

Mo Lin turned Wei Fu's body over and examined it again carefully.

Upon closer inspection, something was amiss.

"Call everyone from the Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall here," Mo Lin ordered Wei Xun.

Wei Xun didn't think much of it and gathered the disciples of Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall.

Only about thirty people.

The crowd was gathered at this moment.

Mo Lin looked at the thirty-plus people before him and said, "Stop hiding... come out, will you?"

Wei Xun seemed bewildered, "Shishu, what's going on?"

She still hadn't figured out what was happening.

"A ghost used your grandfather's body to come to the Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall."

"The person who came back with you today wasn't your grandfather... it was a ghost," Mo Lin stated confidently.

"Ah..." Wei Xun gasped.

Then she carefully recalled picking up her grandfather today.

Indeed, something felt off during the trip.

The ghost was formidable.

Wei Fu possessed Dao Practice, and his cultivation was of the Pure Origin and Profound Dao Technique; maybe not stronger than Mo Lin, but certainly not weaker than a common ghost.

"That ghost might have possessed one of these people now," Mo Lin said slowly, pointing at the thirty-plus individuals in front of him.

"Have all these people stand here and wait until dawn; if anyone leaves, then there's a problem."

"Okay," Wei Xun agreed with a nod.

"Ghost?"

"We're normal people."

"I haven't been possessed by a ghost."

"Neither have I." The people of the Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall all expressed that they were fine.

Of course... Mo Lin didn't listen to their explanations.

By dawn, the truth would be revealed.

After about three hours, Mo Lin didn't blink once, continuously watching the thirty-plus people.

The grey sky gradually revealed a hint of white.

Dawn arrived!

None of the thirty-plus disciples left.

They waited here for dawn.

This was peculiar.

There had to be a ghost, without a doubt.

But why were all these people unharmed?

So where was the ghost?

"See, I told you I'm not a ghost?"

"Look, dawn arrived, and I'm fine too," a man said to Mo Lin.

"Are you sure everyone has come?" Mo Lin turned and asked Wei Xun.

Upon turning, Mo Lin did not see Wei Xun's figure.

His pupils contracted sharply.

Bad news.

The ghost was on Wei Xun.

"Everyone... help catch the ghost!" Mo Lin said slowly to a few elders sitting on chairs in the distance.

These few individuals possessed Dao Practice and could handle ghosts.

With Mo Lin's words, "Bang!"

The elders seemed to have overslept and suddenly fell to the ground.

Mo Lin stepped forward to check their situation.

Blood was flowing from their eyes and corners of their mouths, and their cheeks were bruised.

All dead.

These people were the ancestors of the Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall, with a certain level of Dao Practice.

So powerful, yet they died quietly.

Before Mo Lin arrived, they were already sitting here.

This meant they might have been dead before Mo Lin arrived.

Whose method was this?

Wasn't this too powerful?

Ghost?

Everything that happened today made Mo Lin feel particularly troublesome.

Headache.

Hurts a lot.

Wei Xun!

Is that little girl okay?

"Hey... if you dare harm Wei Xun, I'll make your soul vanish!" Mo Lin roared angrily.

The voice echoed in the courtyard.

Mo Lin began searching the Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall for Wei Xun's figure.

From the backyard to the front yard, leaving no corner unchecked.

Unfortunately, he didn't find Wei Xun.

A living person couldn't just disappear.

Just as Mo Lin was about to search once more, a familiar voice reached his ears.

"Mo Lin..."

Turning towards the voice, it was Qin Yuyu.

Her face was exhausted, as if she didn't sleep well last night.

"What's wrong?" Mo Lin inquired.

"Something happened... Tang Wuqi isn't dead," Qin Yuyu started with a bombshell.

"How is that possible?"

Mo Lin personally saw Tang Wuqi burned to death by the Netherworld's Nether Fire last night.

How could he be alive?

"He's really not dead... he went to find Cyan Dragon yesterday and killed him," Qin Yuyu said earnestly to Mo Lin.

Her face was serious, not at all like she was lying.

Moreover, she had no reason to joke around with Mo Lin for simple amusement.

"See for yourself." Qin Yuyu took out a video and showed it to Mo Lin.

It was footage.

The video showed Cyan Dragon being murdered by Tang Wuqi.

Mo Lin watched closely; the man in the video was indeed Tang Wuqi.

This was odd.

Mo Lin had clearly killed him yesterday.

Why was he still alive?

Death resurrection?

That's impossible!

No matter how powerful, coming back to life through bones is impossible.

As for soul body?

That's even less possible.

When a person dies and becomes a ghost, they have no cultivation and are even weak enough to be invisible.

This was peculiar.

Mo Lin clutched his hair, completely clueless.

Qin Yuyu glanced around and asked Mo Lin, "What's going on with Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall?"

"They're dead... several with Dao Practice are deceased; even Wei Fu is dead," Mo Lin took a deep breath and said slowly.

"So, while we went to find Tang Wuqi last night, someone stealthily targeted Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall?"

Qin Yuyu speculated, "Does the opponent know you weren't at Pure Origin and Profound Dao? Or is it a mere coincidence?"

"I believe it should be the former."

How could there be so many coincidences?

Mo Lin believed everything was planned.

Mo Lin looked at Qin Yuyu.

"Don't look at me that way; I wouldn't scheme against you."

Indeed, Qin Yuyu had no reason to plot against Mo Lin.

There was no conflict of interest between the two.

"Help me find Wei Xun; she's gone missing," Mo Lin said to Qin Yuyu.

"Wait a moment, I'll call them over." Qin Yuyu then made a call.

After about ten minutes.

Guo Tian and Xiao Lei arrived.

Their faces looked as bad as Qin Yuyu's, evidently not having slept well.

"We've encountered major trouble, and now we have to band together," Qin Yuyu initially said.

Guo Tian agreed, "Tang Wuqi killed Cyan Dragon; his next target is one of us, so we must band together."

Xiao Lei broke down, "I don't want to die; I want to leave Xu Yue City."

She wanted to leave Xu Yue City, but now wasn't the time to leave.

Leaving Xu Yue City now would be even more dangerous.

Because they'd be targeted.

All the chaotic matters converged together.

It's quite troublesome.

"What I'm puzzled about is, wasn't Tang Wuqi killed by Mo Lin? Why did he resurrect?" Guo Tian asked a question everyone was curious about.

"I don't know," Qin Yuyu shook her head.

Not only did she not have the answer, but no one present knew why.

"Let's not discuss other topics; let's first solve the trouble at Pure Origin and Profound Dao Hall," Qin Yuyu refocused the conversation.
