Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department

As Mo Lin stepped forward, the dynamics at the scene immediately changed.

The right side, which was empty a moment ago, started to fill up as Mo Lin made his stance known.

Mo Lin seemed to become the backbone for these people.

In the center, the senior male official from the East District seemed a bit displeased.

"Mo Lin, if you agree to coexist, I can give you a cultivation technique.

I can even allocate a piece of land exclusively for you and give you a hundred thousand people.

You can handle these hundred thousand people any way you want." The man tempted Mo Lin.

If it were an Evil Cultivator, they certainly wouldn’t refuse, and would absolutely agree without hesitation.

A hundred thousand people, and allocation of a land area.

This status is almost akin to the Yellow Springs Realm and the Evil Buddha.

At least, this senior official has offered enough stakes.

"So many benefits?" Mo Lin questioned.

"Not enough?"

The senior official repeated, "I can offer more. Just say whatever you want."

"Anything at all?" Mo Lin asked again.

"Yes."

"I want all the Evil Buddha to die.

I want no Evil Spirits in the East District.

I want Yellow Springs Ghosts to disappear from the East District." Mo Lin stated his demands.

The senior official immediately fell silent.

The requirements Mo Lin raised were certainly unrealistic.

Similarly, he had no way of accomplishing them.

"Since we can’t reach an agreement, we’ll let numbers decide.

The minority will submit to the majority." The senior official changed his approach and spoke again.

Mo Lin’s side had fewer people, clearly about to lose.

"We have fewer people, we will surely lose."

Hou Hongfang reminded Mo Lin, "Mo Lin, you mustn’t agree."

Mo Lin seemed to ignore Hou Hongfang’s reminder and coldly said.

"Okay."

Hou Hongfang looked at Mo Lin in shock, not understanding why Mo Lin agreed.

Wasn’t this a sure loss?

"Then there’s nothing else to say. Two-thirds of the people are willing to coexist with the Evil Buddha." The senior official quickly said, worried Mo Lin might back out.

"No need to rush..."

Mo Lin interrupted the senior official.

Mo Lin reminded the people in front of him.

"I give you one minute to all stand with me."

A threat... Mo Lin directly threatened those agreeing to coexist in front of him.

"What? Are you threatening us?"

One man coldly said, "So what if I don’t stand on the right side?

Do you dare to kill someone here?"

Just as Li Fang’s words fell.

A pitch-black longsword had already appeared in front of the man.

The senior official flickered and appeared in front of Li Fang, Immortal Qi gushing from his right hand, blocking Mo Lin’s Cyan Cloud Sword.

Had he been a bit slower, Li Fang would already be a dead man.

Cold sweat appeared on Li Fang’s forehead.

Mo Lin actually dared to kill here.

"Mo Lin, you’ve gone too far." The senior official chastised Mo Lin.

The senior official raised his right hand, and black wooden lightning rods leaped in from outside the door, converging on the senior official.

Everyone present was caught off guard by Mo Lin.

Aside from Mo Lin, no second person dared to act here.

The senior official waved his hand, and seven wooden lightning rods leaped over from outside, landing in front of Mo Lin and trapping him.

"If you act out again, don’t blame me for being impolite." The senior official threatened Mo Lin.

Hou Hongfang quietly gave Mo Lin a thumbs up, "Impressive..."

Since knowing Mo Lin, he grew more and more admiration for him.

This guy, indiscriminately and without regard for the situation or person.

Whenever something slightly displeased him, he would immediately show it.

Facing the senior official of the East District, he showed not a hint of respect.

"I do not agree with coexisting."

Mo Lin’s tone was ice cold.

"Whoever agrees to coexist is my enemy." Mo Lin’s stance was clear.

Those who agreed to coexist would eventually become stumbling blocks for Mo Lin.

Might as well eliminate them before they grow.

"Mo Lin, you’re too arrogant." The senior official admonished.

He waved his right hand, and a lightning rod in front targeted Mo Lin.

Terrifying lightning descended, aiming directly at Mo Lin via the lightning rod.

Mo Lin raised his right hand, and the Cyan Cloud Sword met the attack from the lightning rod.

Mo Lin executed the Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship.

A swath of white sword light slashed forward.

The white sword light, like waves, headed towards the lightning rod.

The sword light struck the lightning rod without any effect.

Mo Lin’s Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship could not inflict the slightest damage on the lightning rod.

This lightning rod was already considered a Magical Treasure.

Such power was quite normal.

Seeing Mo Lin’s trouble, the senior official cracked a cold smile.

"Mo Lin, calm down, and I won’t take action against you.

Otherwise, don’t blame me for punishing you." The senior official warned Mo Lin.

Mo Lin didn’t waste words; he raised his right hand.

Pitch-black Ghost Qi spread around Mo Lin’s body.

Centered on Mo Lin, pitch-black Ghost Qi covered the entire hall.

Ghost Qi spread across the ground like seawater.

Pitch-black Ghost Qi covered Mo Lin’s skin surface.

Wraith-like shadows slowly emerged from the black Ghost Qi.

The entire hall was completely engulfed by ghosts.

"Bang!"

A giant ghost hand slammed onto the lightning rod, producing a loud noise.

The lightning rod quivered from the impact.

Chen Xi’s figure appeared in front.

The next moment, Chen Xi charged forward again.

The senior official dared not be careless and drove seven lightning rods to suppress Chen Xi.

Chen Xi fought back, facing the lightning rods without any disadvantage.

"Why isn’t she being restrained?" The senior official furrowed his brow, puzzled by Chen Xi’s immunity to the lightning rods.

Everyone knew that lightning rods restrained evil spirits.

But why wasn’t Chen Xi affected?

"Isn’t she a ghost with the Immortal Ghost Skill?" Hou Hongfang murmured.

A ghost with the Immortal Ghost Skill, essentially still a ghost.

Previously on Spirit Island, the Taishang Binding Ghost Array also had no effect on Chen Xi.

Today, the lightning rods similarly had no impact on Chen Xi.

It’s too bizarre.

Chen Xi is still essentially a ghost; why isn’t she affected?

Hou Hongfang’s head suddenly trembled, and he exclaimed.

"She’s already surpassed ordinary ghosts.

Above Yin Spirit?

Immortal Ghost level?"

Hou Hongfang’s voice was not loud, but everyone present heard it clearly.

Immortal Ghost level.

This term was so unfamiliar, yet instilled fear.

"Even if she’s not on the Immortal Ghost level, she has at least reached its threshold." Another person slowly said.

This explanation made sense.

On Spirit Island, Chen Xi was unaffected by the Taishang Binding Ghost Array because she had reached the threshold of the Immortal Ghost level.

Her essence had already surpassed the level of a ghost.

"Bang!"

Chen Xi punched hard, striking the lightning rod.

It was like tearing electric wires by hand.

Lightning danced around the lightning rod, and Chen Xi stood among the electricity, confronting it head-on without flinching.

This is Mo Lin’s ghost.

Chen Xi!

The sense of oppression is immense.

"Young man, stop causing trouble."

A reproachful voice sounded.

In the distance appeared a middle-aged man.

This man, like Mo Lin, openly revealed his true appearance.

The man had a burly build, short black hair, and was bare-chested, wearing shorts.

A terrifying aura erupted from him.

This aura, Mo Lin had felt the same from Cui Xinyun.

Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy.
