Caught You!

"Caught you!"

Lu Siye held the Blazing Blood Blade, looking sinisterly at the skeletal phantom behind Shi Yimin.

Hearing the voice, the Mirror Ghost immediately turned its head towards the bathroom door, its pupils contracting sharply.

Why can a Night Patrol Envoy find me? I was careful enough, I didn't even leave the mirror, nor did I leak any Yin energy.

[Mirror Ghost Wu Jianyuan was terrified in his heart, Fear Points +87!]

It's over! It's over!

This person is definitely not a Night Patrol Envoy. A Night Patrol Envoy couldn't possibly detect my existence through the mirror. He's most likely a Night Wanderer Envoy!

Damn human, pretending to be a weakling to catch a tiger.

This is the end, I'm definitely going to die!

[Mirror Ghost Wu Jianyuan became more and more frightened, Fear Points +93!]

If Lu Siye could hear the Mirror Ghost's inner monologue, he would probably burst out laughing.

Actually, he hadn't noticed the Mirror Ghost's existence before. When he was knocking on the wall, it was just a subconscious action.

But he didn't expect the other party to be startled by his knocking, giving him a wave of Fear Points, which is how he knew there was a Mirror Ghost next door.

The Mirror Ghost didn't know that his momentary fright had exposed him. Now, it just wanted to retract the curse immediately. It was the weaker party now and absolutely couldn't suffer a backlash again.

As for the duck that got away, it got away. In the current situation, preserving its life was the priority.

[Mirror Ghost Wu Jianyuan felt fear in his heart, preparing to flee, Fear Points +86!]

Hearing the system notification, Lu Siye's mouth would have stretched from ear to ear if Shi Yimin wasn't still there and he needed to maintain his good image.

He didn't expect that just by saying a sentence, the other party would be so cooperative, contributing nearly three hundred Fear Points in the blink of an eye.

However, Lu Siye didn't give the Mirror Ghost time to escape just because it was cooperative. Shi Yimin was still in mortal danger, and saving him was the priority.

Raising the Blazing Blood Blade, Lu Siye infused Blood Essence into the blade, and mysterious patterns instantly lit up.

He bent his knees and pushed off forcefully, the immense power shattering the floor tiles beneath his feet. The reactive force propelled Lu Siye forward at high speed. A red blade light flashed in the darkness, instantly slicing through the skeletal phantom behind Shi Yimin.

Boom!

An invisible flame of Blood Essence, invisible to the naked eye, erupted in the confined space. The skeletal phantom enveloped within was instantly ignited, burning into nothingness in the blink of an eye.

Shi Yimin, standing before the mirror, suddenly felt a lightness in his body. The feeling of his body being out of control disappeared, and then his legs gave out, and he fell to the ground.

At the same time, a piercing scream echoed from within the mirror. Several long, thin blade wounds appeared out of nowhere on the Mirror Ghost's body, with sparks dissipating from the wounds.

And on the cursed skeleton behind it, one-third of the maggots spontaneously combusted, erupting into clusters of green Netherflame, which then turned into wisps of smoke and dissipated within the mirror.

The Mirror Ghost was terrified. A single, ordinary strike from the opponent could destroy its curse and cause it to suffer a backlash. It was definitely a cultivator at the Night Wanderer Envoy realm.

[Mirror Ghost Wu Jianyuan was terrified. No... I don't want to die again! Fear Points +99!]

Disregarding its injuries, the Mirror Ghost grabbed the cursed skeleton behind it, turned its head, and fled into the depths of the mirror.

"Trying to leave? Did you ask your Fourth Master?"

Lu Siye roared, reversing his grip on the Blazing Blood Blade, and kicked off the wall to surge forward, thrusting the Blazing Blood Blade directly through the mirror.

Scorching Blood Essence spread along the blade to the entire mirror. A piercing scream echoed from within the mirror, vibrating against his eardrums.

[Ding~ Fear Points +...]

Hearing the Mirror Ghost's scream, Shi Yimin trembled all over. He scrambled to Lu Siye's side, grabbed his thigh, and asked with a trembling voice, "Mas... Master, is that... ghost in the mirror dead?"

"No, things like Mirror Ghosts are useless if you just shatter the mirror they inhabit without them coming out," Lu Siye shook his head. Mirror Ghosts, according to the records of the Town Demon Suppression Division, were one of the more difficult common ghosts to deal with.

"Then... then I'm still in danger?" Shi Yimin wailed.

"Don't worry, although I couldn't kill the Mirror Ghost, I've trapped it in this mirror. As long as this blade isn't pulled out, it can't escape."

He had learned this method of sealing a ghost's parasitic object with Blood Essence to restrict its movement from a post on the Town Demon Suppression Division APP.

Originally, this was a technique only usable by Night Wanderer Envoys or above, but with the assistance of the Blazing Blood Blade, he could achieve the same effect.

After explaining, Lu Siye couldn't help but turn his head to look at the mirror that had been pierced, his expression suddenly becoming a little strange.

Did I accidentally set a flag?

"That's great then!" Shi Yimin's eyes rekindled with hope.

After confirming that the mirror was fine, Lu Siye looked down at the emaciated pendant clinging to his thigh. He could feel the icy coldness of the other party's body from the touch on his leg.

Gathering the Yang energy within his body into his eyes, Lu Siye looked at the positions of Shi Yimin's shoulders, head, and heart.

The two flames on his shoulders had already extinguished, leaving only one flame on his head still flickering weakly.

Furthermore, a dark Yin energy was circulating within him, and the Yang energy in his heart was like a candle in the wind, at risk of extinguishing at any moment.

Lu Siye had seen the consequences of Yang energy extinguishing on the Town Demon Suppression Division APP before.

Generally, after Yang energy extinguishes, there's an eighty percent chance of dying on the spot. The remaining probability is either becoming a zombie or becoming a ghost.

Lu Siye placed his hand on Shi Yimin's shoulder and said sternly, "Don't move if you don't want to die."

"Huh?" Shi Yimin's mouth widened, his face full of question marks.

Before he could react, he suddenly felt a scorching airflow rise from his shoulder, rapidly coursing through his veins and dispersing the coldness in his body.

Half a minute later, Lu Siye withdrew his palm, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

He had just used the characteristic of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill, which generated Yang energy heatwaves when circulated, to inject these heatwaves into Shi Yimin's body through his pores.

Gathering his Yang energy to his eyes again, he saw that the Yang energy in the other party's heart had already begun to surge anew, no longer at risk of extinguishing at any moment.

This was his first time attempting to save someone with Yang energy heatwaves. Although the consumption was a bit high, it was still within an acceptable range.

"Thank you, Master, for saving my life!" Shi Yimin immediately let go of Lu Siye's thigh, clasped his hands together, and said with a grateful expression.

Although he didn't know what this ghost-exorcising master had done to him.

He could clearly feel that the sensation of his entire body being ice-cold, and the feeling that he could kick the bucket at any moment, had disappeared.

"Alright, I'll guard here. If nothing unexpected happens, this Mirror Ghost can be dealt with tomorrow. You should go rest!"

Lu Siye looked at Shi Yimin's sunken eye sockets and waved his hand.

"Yes! Yes! Thank you for your hard work, Master!" Shi Yimin quickly nodded in agreement.

Although he still had many questions, since the Master had spoken, he didn't dare to disturb him further.
