After experiencing several days of unusually busy work, Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha finally had the opportunity to take a rest and sit down to review what had happened during this time. A loophole in the Underworld led to an unprecedented mass escape of souls, posing a serious test for this duo.
It all started on what seemed like a normal night when they received an urgent message: a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation had erupted in the west of the city, indicating that a large number of souls may have escaped from the control of the Underworld. Gu sha immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. He understood that this was no ordinary event, but a crisis that required immediate action from them.
The night fell like a light veil over the city, and the streets remained busy with people and vehicles under the streetlights. Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha hurried towards the west district. Along the way, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask, "Do you feel like this situation is a bit unusual?"
Gu sha replied with a serious look, "Indeed, it's rare to see such a large-scale escape. We need to find out the cause of the loophole and retrieve the escaped souls as soon as possible."
After reaching the west district, they found that the atmosphere here was completely different from usual. The air seemed to be filled with a sense of unease, making people restless. Lin Xiaoxiao opened her portable inspiration detector, only to find more flashing red dots on the screen than expected.
"It looks like we need to split up tonight," Gu sha said in a deep voice, quickly assigning tasks. "I'll track the main energy fluctuations, and you'll be responsible for collecting scattered souls."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement, and the two quickly separated to take action. Following the direction indicated by the detector, Lin Xiaoxiao discovered several souls wandering in a dark alley. She took a deep breath, took out a sealing charm, and cautiously approached. Every step she took was extremely careful, fearing to disturb these unstable souls.
Lin Xiaoxiao silently shuttled through the dark alley, her eyes fixed on the souls ahead. This kind of mission required great patience and precise operation, as any mistake could lead to unnecessary trouble.
Moving closer, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly slipped and almost fell. She couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "Damn, what's on the ground?!" She looked down and realized it was an old piece of newspaper. She quickly steadied herself, afraid that her little movement had already attracted the attention of those souls.
She carefully observed the movements of the souls, making sure they hadn't noticed her presence before continuing forward. Lin Xiaoxiao took out a sealing charm, quietly recited an incantation, and prepared to seal the souls one by one.
At that moment, a soul seemed to sense something and suddenly turned to stare directly in the direction of Lin Xiaoxiao. Lin Xiaoxiao's heart tightened, and she quickly threw the sealing charm towards it, then hid in the dark, holding her breath.
"Hmph, watch me take care of you." Lin Xiaoxiao secretly gloated in her heart as she watched the sealing charm draw a bright light in the air and accurately stick to the soul. As the incantation was completed, the soul let out a reluctant scream, then gradually became transparent, and finally disappeared completely.
Lin Xiaoxiao quietly emerged from the shadows, checked around to ensure no souls were missed, and then nodded in satisfaction, saying, "That's it, another one solved." She smirked with a satisfied smile and continued on to the next location.
Meanwhile, Gu sha faced an even more challenging task. He tracked down a powerful gathering of souls at an abandoned factory. Inside, it was dark and cold, with the abandoned machinery emitting a chilling glow. It seemed like a sanctuary for the souls. Gu sha knew that disturbing the balance here could lead to even greater turmoil.
Gu sha stood at the entrance of the abandoned factory, his gaze piercing through the night and mist, staring into the deep, unfathomable darkness ahead. He took a deep breath, adjusted his gear, and prepared to enter this dangerous territory.
As he stepped into the factory, Gu sha was unusually cautious with every step. His eyes constantly scanned the surroundings, and his ears listened for any faint sounds. The abandoned machinery cast shadows in the dim moonlight, creating an especially eerie scene.
Gu sha is clear in his heart, every corner here may hide danger, he must remain highly vigilant. Just then, his detector suddenly emitted a slight buzzing sound, indicating powerful spiritual activity not far ahead.
Gu sha stopped in his tracks, took a deep breath, and then slowly moved in the direction indicated by the detector. As he approached that point, a powerful energy surge suddenly struck, forcing Gu sha to immediately assume a defensive posture.
It was an extremely powerful soul, its form was blurry, but Gu sha could feel its strong presence. The soul seemed to sense Gu sha's arrival and began to feel uneasy, emitting a piercing scream.
Gu sha calmly analyzed the situation. He knew that directly confronting such a soul would entail great risk, so he decided to use a more clever way to seal it. He took out a specially made sealing charm from his pocket and quickly carved a series of complex runes onto the charm.
After finishing the preparations, Gu sha took a deep breath and then strode forward, forcefully throwing the sealing charm towards the soul. The charm drew a bright line in the air, accurately attaching to the soul and immediately bursting into a strong light.
The powerful soul let out a final scream, then gradually dissipated within the light. Throughout the entire process, Gu sha remained calm and focused, only relaxing slightly after confirming that the soul had been completely sealed.
Gu sha turned back to look at the factory, which had once again returned to calm, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Tonight's victory was just a small step among many challenges, but for him, every success was a proof of his own abilities.
On the way out of the factory, Gu sha felt unusually calm. No matter how difficult the problem, as long as it was calmly analyzed and dealt with reasonably, there was no obstacle that couldn't be overcome. Tonight's experience once again proved this point.
In the next few hours, Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha raced against time on their respective battlefields, using their wisdom and strength to capture the fleeing souls one by one and safely send them back to the Underworld using sealing spells.
When everything finally calmed down, the sky was already getting light. Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha met at the edge of the city, their figures looking particularly exhausted in the morning light. Gu sha looked at Lin Xiaoxiao and said lightly, "This time, we were truly fortunate to succeed."
Lin Xiaoxiao sighed and rubbed her eyes forcefully, "A stroke of luck? I feel like we've exhausted all our efforts. Will such a large-scale soul escape happen again in the future?"
Gu sha looked pensive, "This incident has exposed management issues in the Underworld. We need to find the cause of the loophole and prevent similar events from happening again," his voice carried an unmistakable determination.
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, but she had deeper worries in her heart: "Gu sha, this incident has made me think a lot. Do we need to reconsider our contract? After all, this kind of life seems to be filled with too many sacrifices for us."
Gu sha looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with eyes full of complex emotions. He knew that Lin Xiaoxiao was speaking the truth. This kind of life was indeed filled with too many unstable factors, and every mission could be a matter of life and death. But at the same time, he also understood that this was the path they had chosen, the responsibility they had to bear in order to maintain the balance of the Yin and Yang realms.
Gu sha gently said, "Xiao Xiao, I understand your worries. But our contract is not just an agreement, it's also a responsibility. This world needs us, it needs us to protect it from the intrusion of spirits." His voice was deep and powerful, every word exuding strong conviction.
Lin Xiaoxiao fell silent for a moment, then softly said, "I know, Gu sha. I'm not trying to escape either, it's just that sometimes, I get scared. Scared that one day, we'll lose even more because of this responsibility."
Gu sha took a step forward and gently held Lin Xiaoxiao's hand: "We all have times when we are afraid, but the important thing is that we must learn to face it and overcome it. As long as I'm with you, we have the courage to face anything."
Lin Xiaoxiao looked up into Gu sha's deep and resolute eyes, and the fear in her heart gradually subsided. Gu sha was right, as long as they were together, there was nothing they couldn't overcome.
"Alright, Gu sha. Let's solve it together, overcome it together," Lin Xiaoxiao smiled, her eyes shining with determination.
In the first light of dawn, Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha reaffirmed their determination.
