Realm of the Night God

<

In this kick, Yang Haoran held nothing back, exerting all his strength. Du Xiao was sent flying, and while still in the air, he sprayed a mouthful of blood, his face contorted in pain!

After kicking his friend who knew nothing about discretion, Yang Haoran didn't continue his assault. Instead, he turned his gaze to the kneeling skin ghost!

The skin ghost's face changed color, without hesitation, it attempted to flee!

Seemingly anticipating this, Yang Haoran acted swiftly. As the skin ghost tried to rise, a thick black chain, as thick as an arm, entangled him.

Back in the hospital by the river, a chain formed by Yang Haoran's Yin spirit power would have been useless; he could have shattered it with ease. But now, he was powerless despite his intentions; his soul was too weak to break the chain!

Simultaneously, the soul gathering bead, which had been floating beside Yang Haoran's body, appeared once more above the skin ghost's soul body. A powerful suction emanated from it, enveloping the skin ghost's entire soul.

The skin ghost struggled violently, but to no avail. He knew pleading with Yang Haoran was futile. His face once again revealed a ferocious expression, snarling and grimacing at Yang Haoran!

Yang Haoran smirked inwardly. He knew the skin ghost's earlier plea for mercy was merely a survival tactic. Now that it realized feigning weakness was futile, it revealed its true nature.

However, Yang Haoran hadn't been moved by the skin ghost's previous display of helplessness, so he wasn't surprised by its sudden change of demeanor.

"Let go of me! Let go! I'll devour you alive!"

The skin ghost roared, but Yang Haoran's smile didn't waver. He increased the intensity of the soul gathering bead's suction!

Amidst a reluctant and desperate scream, the skin ghost was forcibly drawn into the soul gathering bead. At this moment, Du Xiao managed to crawl to his feet, clutching his stomach.

"You... stop!"

Without time to wipe the blood from his lips, Du Xiao attempted to stop Yang Haoran, but it was too late. Not only had Yang Haoran captured the skin ghost within the soul gathering bead, but he had also embedded the bead back onto the ring.

Yang Haoran looked at Du Xiao with a smile, while Du Xiao trembled with rage, pointing at Yang Haoran with quivering fingers, unable to utter a word.

Seeing Du Xiao's reaction, Yang Haoran adjusted his long hair and asked with a smile, "My hair has grown a bit long. It's time for a trim, don't you think?"

"Pfft!"

Du Xiao spat out another mouthful of blood, not because Yang Haoran's sudden kick had inflicted significant harm, but because he was consumed with anger!

"You don't need to tidy up your hair anymore, because I'll cut your entire head off!"

Seeing Du Xiao's furious expression, Yang Haoran narrowed his eyes into crescents and remarked, "Young people these days are quick to anger over trivial matters. It's bad for your health. You should try to be more mature and composed."

"Go to hell! You stole my guardian Yin spirit! You harmed me! And now you mock me! This matter isn't over today! I must kill you! I demand a duel!"

Du Xiao cursed and roared, seemingly trying to vent his inner anger through these means.

Yang Haoran nodded with a smile, "Truly a case of the young being fearless. But... very well!"

"You're asking for death!!!" Du Xiao roared, swiftly forming seals with his hands, and once again, a furious cry echoed from his mouth, "Spirit Summoning! Summon Spirit!"

Suddenly, a fierce cold wind swept through the cemetery, accompanied by mournful ghostly wails.

The temperature plummeted instantly, as if one had been thrust into an icy tomb.

Yang Haoran didn't take advantage of the situation. He simply stood still, wearing a smile as he watched Du Xiao.

Meanwhile, several undead creatures appeared around Du Xiao, their gazes vacant, as if they had lost their own consciousness.

"Kill him for me!!!"

Du Xiao roared, pointing fiercely at Yang Haoran. The undead behind him, upon hearing Du Xiao's command, seemed to act like controlled puppets receiving orders, soaring into the air with synchronized movements, ghostly wails accompanying their descent towards Yang Haoran!

Yang Haoran's smile remained undiminished as he stood motionless, allowing the undead to approach him.

Du Xiao's Spirit Summoning was just the most basic form of spirit master Spirit Summoning. It could summon all nearby ghosts within a certain range and then control them for personal use.

However, this summoning could only control characters like the undead. If something beyond the undead were summoned, the spirit master couldn't control it; whether it wanted to assist or not depended entirely on its own choice.

At this moment, Du Xiao's Spirit Summoning brought all the nearby undead under his control. Yet, in Yang Haoran's eyes, this was incredibly childish.

Firstly, it was still afternoon, with the sun hanging high. Under such conditions, summoning the undead caused significant harm to them; even if Yang Haoran didn't intervene, they wouldn't last long under the sunlight.

Secondly, the undead had no attack power. Even if forcibly summoned by Spirit Summoning, they wouldn't pose any threat to Yang Haoran.

Spirit Summoning was a practical and essential technique. Typically, when a spirit master needed to feed their Guardian Yin spirit, they would summon the undead using Spirit Summoning and then let their Guardian Yin spirit devour them.

Using Spirit Summoning against enemies was also possible, but not in the way Du Xiao was using it. The undead themselves had no attack power, so besides intimidation, they served no purpose in combat.

The effectiveness of this technique relied on summoning powerful ghosts above the undead. Once these ghosts were summoned, the spirit master could negotiate with them and enlist their help. That was the correct use of Spirit Summoning.

However, Du Xiao was now controlling a group of powerless undead to attack Yang Haoran, which made Yang Haoran wonder if his friend had lost his mind.

"This works out well, saves me the trouble of hunting you all down one by one."

Yang Haoran chuckled and then waved his hand. The soul gathering bead whizzed out and met the oncoming undead head-on.

With the activation of the soul gathering bead, a tremendous suction emerged, pulling all the approaching undead into it.

Du Xiao froze; it seemed he just realized that besides intimidating people, the undead had no other purpose. Sending these undead to attack a Night Watch was no different from seeking death.

"So, you still want to show off like this? It seems you've returned everything your master gave you."

Yang Haoran retrieved the soul gathering bead, smiling as he approached Du Xiao.

Du Xiao looked grim. He cursed bitterly, "This Cemetery is damn poor! Besides a few undead, there's nothing! Not even a Half-Step Evil Spirit! If there were one, you, the temporary worker, would be done for now!" "Such arrogance. But you better keep being arrogant; the more arrogant you are, the better. That way, I can proceed to deal with you more comfortably."

Yang Haoran remarked, then flicked his right hand lightly. A series of chain collisions echoed, and in his hand, another chain formed from Yin spirit power materialized.

In fact, he had already captured the skin ghost and the other undead in the cemetery under Du Xiao's Spirit Summoning. He could have left at this point. However, he chose not to, mainly because of Du Xiao's behavior.

It wasn't that Yang Haoran had a penchant for bullying the young; it was that Du Xiao was simply too arrogant. Dealing with such an unpowered person, if he didn't make him feel pain once, he might never know how vast the world outside was.

Moreover, spirit masters and the Yin Division had always been at odds. If they hadn't crossed paths, he wouldn't bother seeking out such individuals. But now that they had, he couldn't just walk away.

For both public and private reasons, he had no reason to leave things as they were.

He felt that he should do something.
