62: Chapter 62 Harvest

With that heavy slam, the head on its neck fell right off and rolled away.

The head rolled to a corner, stopped after bumping into the wall, and its eyes, filled with terror, happened to face the direction of the Headless Corpse Ghost.

It was as if someone who died with unresolved grievances was accusing their murderer.

"Hmph!" The headless Headless Corpse Ghost could not speak, and a stream of air hissed directly from its severed neck.

A black light diffused from within its body, instantly covering the entire room.

The surrounding room expanded infinitely in that instant, and the distance between Lu Siye and the Headless Corpse Ghost was stretched endlessly.

"A mere Ghost Wall, and you still want to deceive me?" Lu Siye scoffed.

He took a step forward, and the Yang Fire on his right shoulder, representing the Youjing soul among the three souls, instantly manifested, causing a surge of majestic Yang Qi to spread out.

Pop! Like the sound of a bubble bursting, the Ghost Wall was instantly shattered, and the scene before his eyes returned to normal in a flash.

The Headless Corpse Ghost picked up the head that had fallen on the floor, but just as it reattached the head, it discovered that its Ghost Wall had already been broken.

It turned its head sharply and saw that blazing, blindingly bright Yang Fire.

[The Headless Corpse Ghost is scared out of its wits, Fear Value + 99!]

"You are actually a Night Wanderer!" The Headless Corpse Ghost shrieked as if it had seen a Ghost, charging toward the balcony in an attempt to jump to safety.

"Where do you think you're going? Beauty!" Lu Siye took a step and instantly appeared behind the Headless Corpse Ghost, his large hand gripping its shoulder, his scorching breath brushing against its ear.

The Headless Corpse Ghost stiffened, and the massive force from its shoulder dragged it back from the balcony.

With a rustle, the curtains fell back down, and a desperate scream rang out from inside the room.

"No... don't!"

[The Headless Corpse Ghost is terrified, Fear Value + 99!]

"Come on, don't be shy!"

"Please, spare me, I won't dare to do it again."

[The Headless Corpse Ghost is filled with regret, 'I shouldn't have left the house!' Fear Value + 99!]

"Sigh, isn't it a bit late to say that now? Since you've made a mistake, there must be a price to pay."

"No... don't... there... not there!"

[The Headless Corpse Ghost is in despair. 'My kidney, my kidney.' Fear Value + 99!]

"Be good and don't move. Mine is so big, and yours is so small; what if I put it in the wrong place? Be good now~"

In the darkness, Lu Siye held the blazing blood saber, gesturing repeatedly toward the lower back of the Headless Corpse Ghost.

Puchi! "Ah~" A shrill scream echoed through the room.

[ ... ]

"I've already sealed off the entire room with Yang Qi, guaranteeing that not a single sound will escape. Feel free to scream as much as you like, hehehe!"

The chilling laughter and screams echoed endlessly in the room.

Click! A few minutes later, the lights in the room turned back on, and Lu Siye walked out from the bathroom after washing his hands.

He looked at the headless corpse lying stiffly on the floor. Most of the living room tiles were completely shattered, and the remaining intact tiles were covered in messy claw marks, showing the inhuman torture the Headless Corpse Ghost had suffered before death.

After taking a photo with his phone and uploading it to the Evil Suppression Bureau for mission assessment, Lu Siye walked over to the headless corpse.

He raised the blazing blood saber in his hand and plunged it into the corpse's back, pouring scorching Yang Qi into it.

Poof! A fierce golden Yang Fire rose instantly, and the headless corpse slowly turned to ash in the flames, leaving only the victim's head, which had been tainted by Yin Qi, on the table for the Evil Suppression Bureau field staff to assess the Ghost's strength.

Retrieving the blazing blood saber, Lu Siye looked at the room that would likely need a renovation, silently apologized to the landlord in his heart, and then slipped away.

As for the renovation, it was better to leave that to the field department of the Evil Suppression Bureau.

Under the cover of night, Lu Siye transformed into a blur, moving across the rooftops of various buildings, heading toward the Tongjiang Residential Area.

Ten minutes later, when the Evil Suppression Bureau's field staff arrived to check on the Headless Corpse Ghost and opened the door, they were left in a state of utter shock, staring at the floor tiles that looked like they had been demolished.

But this had nothing to do with Lu Siye, who had returned to the Tongjiang Residential Area; he was currently tallying his gains.

Before that, he took a look at the System panel he hadn't checked in a long time.

Host: Lu Siye. Fear Value: 28915. Cultivation: 450 years (External Skill: 300 years; Internal Skill: 150 years).

Cultivation Techniques: "Dragon-Elephant Prajna Art" (Level 4); "Body Forging Art"; "Five Tigers Soul-Severing Saber Technique" (Major Achievement); "Bei Ming Divine Art" (Entry); "Lingbo Microsteps" (Entry); "Diamond Indestructible Divine Skill" (Proficient).

Special Items: evil-exorcising fruit knife; blazing blood saber + 2.

In terms of Fear Value, the Headless Corpse Ghost had provided him with over 1,600 points; after deducting previous expenditures, he now had 28,915 Fear Value points.

Regarding Cultivation, after these few days of practice, his blood and Qi had only increased by 25 years; most of the rest of the blood and Qi had been used to convert into Yang Qi to strengthen his Yang Fire, or used to practice the "Diamond Indestructible Divine Skill".

His External Skill strength had actually improved significantly since his Breakthrough, but unfortunately, this System didn't seem very intelligent and didn't display it.

In terms of Internal Skill, after absorbing the Yin Qi from the Headless Corpse Ghost, his Internal Energy cap had increased by 8 years.

Before this, the Mirror Ghost in the bathroom and the dozen or so Evil Ghosts and Fierce Ghosts on the bus had already raised his Internal Skill to 142 years.

Added to the Yin Qi provided by the Headless Corpse Ghost, his Internal Skill had reached exactly 150 years.

Lu Siye felt that based solely on his level of Internal Energy, he should have already reached the level of a Night Wanderer.

Even though there was already 150 years of Internal Energy in his Dantian, Lu Siye still didn't feel that his Dantian was full.

It was truly a peerless Cultivation Technique that prioritized the accumulation of Internal Energy; 150 years was far from the limit of this technique.

After closing the System panel, Lu Siye took out his phone, opened the exorcism app, and checked the messages in the background.

The point calculation for the Headless Corpse Ghost had been released. Because it was a half-step Fierce Ghost, he was awarded 1.5 times the maximum points for an Evil Ghost, which was 150 points.

He now had 2,180 points.

Holding the philosophy that points don't lay eggs and are useless if saved, Lu Siye spent 1,000 points to buy 100 blood replenishing pills, leaving 1,180 points for emergencies.

After finishing all this, it was already past 12 o'clock at night.

Sleeping was out of the question; he could only replace rest with cultivation.

Putting away his phone, Lu Siye took out the blood spirit pill he hadn't finished consuming last time, swallowed one, and began to Cultivate.

In the living room, a surging wave of Yang Qi rose once again.
