Listening to the Corpse Breeder, Ye Mingshang frowned. This Fellow was indeed cold-blooded and cruel. He then asked, "Are the two corpses in the Yizhuang Cellar also your work?"
The Corpse Breeder replied, "No, that was done by my grandfather when he was young. Those two were a couple with a compatible fate. As long as they were cultivated into corpses for a full cycle of years, they could gain immense power. It is considered a legacy left by my grandfather for the future generations."
Calculating it out, that pair of corpses had already been cultivated for over a full cycle of years, and their strength was indeed not weak. However, they met an opponent that was too powerful, which led to their destruction.
Ye Mingshang took out a Spirit Talisman and pressed it against the Corpse Breeder's forehead, forming hand seals. "Today, in the mortal realm, Celestial Master Ye Mingshang hereby requests the heavenly decree with this document to revoke this person's magical powers, sever his path roots, and ensure he can never practice magic again..."
Moments later, he pressed the Yellow Talisman, which flashed with light. Invisible breaths began to be drawn out from the Corpse Breeder's body, and the Yellow Talisman transformed into a beam of yellow light that vanished into the sky.
The Corpse Breeder's complexion was not good; he looked pale, with purple lips, as if he had fallen seriously ill. His expression was very dejected, and there was no spark in his eyes.
"His magical powers have been taken away; he can no longer use Evil Arts to harm others. The rest will be handled by the police," Ye Mingshang said.
An hour later, several crisp sirens sounded as a police car appeared in an open area. A somewhat plump middle-aged man got out of the car; it was Director Lu.
Ye Mingshang brought the Corpse Breeder along with two Zombies and a Zombie Cat's corpse. Of course, both the Zombie Cat and the Corpse Breeder were controlled by Ye Mingshang while bringing them over. He was not only skilled in Daoist Arts but also well-versed in Evil Arts.
Seeing the two Zombies hopping into view startled several police officers, who quickly raised their guns. Director Lu waved his hand to signal them to lower their weapons; he had already spotted Ye Mingshang emerging from the darkness.
"Mingshang, what do you mean by capturing an evil cult member?" Director Lu asked.
"The situation is like this..." Ye Mingshang explained what had happened but did not mention anything about the Blood Moon; he only spoke about the Corpse Breeder.
Director Lu was shocked when he heard that the Corpse Breeder intended to turn everyone into corpses and gritted his teeth as he said, "This beast!"
The other officers also wore expressions of righteous indignation, wishing they could execute the bastard on the spot.
"I have already taken away his magical powers, so he won't be able to use Evil Arts to harm anyone in the future. You can handle him however you see fit once you take him back," Ye Mingshang said.
"Understood." Director Lu nodded and signaled for the officers to shove the Corpse Breeder into the car. As for the two Zombies, they were tossed into the trunk, secured by Ye Mingshang's talismans. They had no reason to worry, and the Zombie Cat was also wrapped up to prevent any potential virus spread. As for the two decayed corpses in the Cellar, since they had already been eliminated by Ye Mingshang, there was nothing more to worry about.
After securing the Zombies and the Corpse Breeder, Director Lu took out a cigarette and offered it to Ye Mingshang, who waved his hand to decline. Director Lu lit one for himself and chuckled, "Heh heh, it's fine for a man to smoke a bit."
Ye Mingshang smiled lightly and said, "I'm someone who pursues health. By the way, where are Qingyang and the others?"
Qingyang was one of the Taoists from the Supernatural Team and its leader; normally, they should have someone accompanying them for such matters.
At this point, Director Lu's expression darkened, revealing his concern. Ye Mingshang frowned and asked, "What happened?"
Director Lu took a deep drag from his cigarette and said, "Qingyang Daozhang is dead."
"What?!" Ye Mingshang was taken aback. Qingyang was quite powerful, being a legitimate Longhu Mountain Taoist and already a Real Person's Tablet. He was experienced and significantly stronger than Joan, with two fellow Taoists assisting him; their combined strength was formidable.
"What could possibly kill him in Nanjing?" Ye Mingshang asked.
Director Lu finished his cigarette quickly and lit another one, taking a deep puff before speaking. "To understand this, we need to go back to yesterday. The Big Knife Gang on Ping An Road was wiped out. Hundreds of people perished without a single survivor. Through surveillance footage, we discovered that this massacre was caused by one person—no, it should be called a monster."
Director Lu's emotions were somewhat agitated; even he couldn't control his trembling hands.
"What did that monster look like?" Ye Mingshang asked.
"Although the surveillance wasn't very clear, it was still distinguishable. It had a structure similar to that of a human; at least it walked upright on two legs and had two arms. However, its entire body seemed covered in pitch-black scales, and it had strange horn-like protrusions on its shoulders."
"His hand seemed to be holding a knife, somewhat resembling a Tang Dao. That monster used the knife to kill hundreds of people in a building, leaving limbs and internal organs scattered everywhere. You know, I thought my mental endurance was strong, but seeing that hellish scene made me unable to hold back my vomit."
"Some people were completely pierced through by his palm, having their hearts ripped out. Oh! My God!" Director Lu painfully covered his head with both hands.
Ye Mingshang took out a small bottle from his pocket and poured out a pill, handing it to Director Lu. "Take this, you'll feel better."
"Okay." Director Lu nodded and swallowed the pea-sized pill, immediately letting out a sigh of relief; his emotions were no longer as tense.
"I'm sorry for losing my composure earlier."
Ye Mingshang waved his hand. "It's not your fault."
Director Lu was just an ordinary person after all; although he had seen a lot, not everything could be accepted.
Ye Mingshang frowned in thought: humanoid, black scales, horns. These features felt very similar to those of the demon race. Wasn't the underworld sealed off by that old man back then? Didn't the modules only allow entry but not exit? Where did these demons come from?
Director Lu's mindset had calmed down considerably. He took a puff of smoke and said, "That night I was drinking with Qingyang Daozhang and a few others when he suddenly stood up and said there was a demon causing trouble. He called the two Daoists and took the Fellow with him. But in the end..."
Director Lu furrowed his brow, his expression pained. "Qingyang Daozhang died at the hands of that monster while escorting the two Daoists away. Qingfeng Daozhang lost an arm, and Qingshan Daozhang was also seriously injured; he's still lying in the hospital now."
Ye Mingshang frowned and said, "Based on your description, that monster seems to be one of the demon race. However, due to certain circumstances, demons shouldn't appear in the human world. I don't know what exactly it is; it seems I need to see it for myself." (To be continued.)
