Chapter 888: Chapter 888
"Half a month ago, I don’t know what happened, but the originally clear skies suddenly turned dark! If it were just that, it would be fine, but on that night, the people in charge of watching over the construction site were found mysteriously dead the next day! After forensic examination, their blood seemed to have been drained by something sharp."
"However, I don’t think so. Their deaths were very tragic! It seemed like they had gone through some kind of terrifying torment before dying! And this matter has been investigated to this point without any clue!"
"As of now, every night, the construction site makes ghostly sounds like a child crying. Initially, I organized a group to go in and search! But when we stepped inside, before taking more than three steps, it felt as if something ominous had locked onto us! My instincts are usually accurate, and if we continued, I fear we would have paid a great price!"
"So, I hurriedly led my men back out! Afterward, the ghost hauntings on the construction site spread quickly, creating quite the commotion! Even during the daytime, no one dares to step foot on that site," Bai Feiya explained. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝔫𝔢𝔱
"I was wondering why you had a aura of darkness on your face, turns out you were infected by an evil entity!" Zhang Xiaohao suddenly realized.
"Ah! Have I been cursed again?" Bai Feiya exclaimed in shock.
The cold and exquisite beauty of her face suddenly drained of all color.
"Eh! Why is your face so pale?" Zhang Xiaohao said playfully.
"What are you standing around for? I’m already cursed, quickly do something now!" Bai Feiya said displeased.
"Haha!" Zhang Xiaohao laughed exaggeratedly.
"What are you laughing at?" Bai Feiya said angrily.
"The evil aura between your brows has been removed by me! Did you think that kiss was just for fun?" Zhang Xiaohao shrugged and said.
"Ah! You jerk, how dare you make fun of me! You’re despicable," Bai Feiya said angrily.
Her jade-white hands hit Zhang Xiaohao in annoyance.
Her strength was like scratching an itch for Zhang Xiaohao.
"Zhang Xiaohao, you must help me! All my funds are invested in this construction site, if it cannot continue, I will lose everything, and debt collectors will come knocking on my door, turning me into a pauper," Bai Feiya pleaded, grabbing Zhang Xiaohao’s hands.
"You should know how our profession works! First, discuss the fees, then do the job! Regardless of whether the task can be accomplished, the fees owed must be paid in full," said Zhang Xiaohao.
"Ah! Are you looking to take advantage? Didn’t the fees earlier suffice?" Bai Feiya said dissatisfied.
"Far from enough! I’ve taken a rough look, it’s a Ghost Spirit! Very powerful! And it’s an infant. It hadn’t lived for an hour before being strangled to death by its mother! Finally buried underground! If it was just that, it would have been manageable. Unfortunately, this site was previously a Demon burial ground! Although the Demon has died, the residual Demonic Qi remains."
"Unfortunately! The ghost’s intense resentment seeking revenge, strength, and survival has unknowingly absorbed this Demonic Qi, mutating into a powerful Ghost Spirit! And our timing is unfortunate! If it isn’t cleared by midnight, it will complete its transformation into a true Ghost Spirit! With the complete abilities of the Ghost Clan."
"At that point, it will fear no light! It will freely roam during daytime! With power comparable to, yet exceeding the Peak of Void Transformation Realm," Zhang Xiaohao said with a serious face.
"Ah! Then act quickly while the sun is shining to subdue it!" Bai Feiya urged.
"Every field has its rules! If I stumbled upon this circumstance, I would take action without hesitation to eliminate it! However, this matter involves you! Because your construction disrupted the site’s feng shui, transforming it from a superior land into a harmful zone! Moreover, once the ghost completes its form, or crosses tribulation to rebirth!"
"At that point, it will gain spiritual intelligence! With a premonitious sense, it will seek two groups of people to kill!" Zhang Xiaohao stated seriously.
"Ah! Which two groups? I surely must be one of them?" Bai Feiya asked weakly.
"Congratulations, you guessed right! But it won’t kill you first; it will go after its mother and father, devour their flesh and blood, undergo the second transformation, then kill you! To be clear, anyone who has stepped on the construction site is considered prey! After devouring all of you, it will complete the third transformation! At that point, it will fully mature!"
"At that time, even the Daluo Immortal descended might not be able to subdue it!" Zhang Xiaohao said solemnly.
"Ah! Is it that powerful? Why are you standing around then? Act quickly to defeat it!" Bai Feiya urged.
Large beads of sweat dripped from her forehead.
"I can eliminate it! But what can you offer?" Zhang Xiaohao said playfully.
"What do you want? I’m telling you, you’re following Tianxing for a righteous cause!" Bai Feiya said.
"Is that so? I can wait until its third transformation to subdue it!" Zhang Xiaohao said calmly.
"Ah! Please no! Zhang Xiaohao, I beg you, can you please help me?" Bai Feiya urged.
"Agree to two conditions! Then I can take action against it!" Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.
"Speak!" Bai Feiya said.
"First condition, after eliminating the ghost, I will overhaul the site’s feng shui, turning it into a prime location, the houses here will sell well! Conservatively, you’ll earn more than ten times the profit! I want you to half of the net profit to charity!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Fine! I agree!" Bai Feiya agreed without a second thought.
"Second condition! I want you to spend one night with me!" Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.
"You, you jerk! Wasn’t the last half hour enough?" Bai Feiya said angrily.
"You think I’m taking advantage? I’m doing it for your sake! Haven’t you noticed that recently misfortune clings to you, and strange things keep happening?" Zhang Xiaohao rolled his eyes.
