While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

"Get out of here!"

Cao Kun made a hand seal with his left hand, gathering magical power in his palm.

"Soul-Suppressing Dao Sound!"

"town--!"

A deafening sound exploded in the corridor, and the visible sound waves shattered the black hair into fragments.

Junxiong fell from the ceiling, and before he even hit the ground, Cao Kun struck him with lightning.

Its body screamed and turned into a puff of smoke, shrinking back into Kayako's body.

Kayako lay on the ground, her body shrouded in black mist, staring intently at Cao Kun.

The wheezing she was making grew louder and louder.

The temperature on the entire second floor had dropped below zero, and a thick layer of frost had formed on the walls.

"It's almost time, I'm not playing with you guys anymore."

"town!"

A sound like muffled thunder rang out again.

Kayako froze, her eyes losing focus.

"Five Thunder Orthodox Method, descend!"

Cao Kun made another hand seal.

boom!

A massive bolt of lightning struck down, hitting Kayako squarely.

"ah--!"

A mournful ghostly wail echoed through the sky.

Kayako's body twisted and contorted under the bombardment of lightning, and the black resentment was gradually worn away.

Suddenly, she disappeared again, as if trying to leave.

"Do you think you can escape?"

Cao Kun took a step forward, and a mysterious power sealed off the entire house.

boom!

The next second, Kayako appeared out of thin air and crashed to the ground.

Its entire body became much more transparent, looking as if it might dissipate at any moment.

"it's over!"

"boom!"

The blinding white light illuminated the entire second floor, turning it into a white blur.

When the light faded, the corridor returned to deathly silence.

The damp, rotten smell had vanished. Only a few strands of broken, withered hair remained on the floor, rapidly weathering into ash.

"Ding! Killed a C-rank ghost, gained 3000000 merit points."

"Ding! Killed an E-level ghost, gained 50000 merit points."

The system notification sounded in Cao Kun's mind again.

Kayako, like Sadako, is a Class C ghost.

In terms of minor realms, she is only slightly better than Sadako.

He also went to great lengths to deal with Sadako back then.

But now, dealing with Kayako, who is even stronger than Sadako, is a complete crushing defeat.

This demonstrates Cao Kun's growth during this period.

With the deaths of Kayako and Toshio.

The frost in the second-floor corridor began to melt rapidly.

It turned into puddles of murky water, dripping down the edge of the stairs.

The thick, oppressive, fishy smell completely dissipated.

The sunlight outside the window finally broke through that invisible barrier, pouring into the corridor in large swaths.

The temperature in the room began to rise rapidly.

Cao Kun stepped downstairs.

The living room on the first floor has been brightened up again, but the sense of deathly silence has not completely dissipated.

"vomit--"

Violent vomiting sounds came from the first-floor guest restroom, accompanied by heavy breathing.

Cao Kun walked over and stood at the door of the restroom.

Nolan was kneeling by the toilet, his hands gripping the edge tightly, his whole body trembling like a leaf.

His expensive dark gray suit was wrinkled beyond recognition.

His tie was askew, his face was so pale it was almost transparent, and he even vomited bile.

Hearing footsteps, Nolan turned his head sharply, his eyes filled with fear and confusion.

Only when he saw that it was Cao Kun did he collapse to the ground as if all his strength had been drained, panting heavily, with filth still remaining at the corner of his mouth.

"Master Cao... Master Cao..." Nolan's voice was barely audible and extremely hoarse.

Cao Kun leaned against the doorframe, looking down at him: "It's over."

The mother and child have already gone to see God, if God will take them.

Nolan stared blankly for a few seconds before realizing what those words meant.

He leaned against the wall, struggled to his feet, walked to the sink, turned on the tap, and splashed cold water on his face.

"Is it...really gone?"

He stared at himself in the mirror, seemingly worried that a pale face might suddenly appear in the mirror.

Cao Kun: "If you want to see something else, I can help you. But you won't be able to see the mother and child."

"No." Nolan's body trembled. "I never want to see them again, or anything like them."

Nolan wiped the water off his face and let out a long breath.

He finally came to his senses, and his eyes were filled with awe as he looked at Cao Kun.

The thunder and the mournful howls that came from the second floor shattered his logic as a modern director.

"Thank you...really, thank you."

Nolan's hands trembled as he pulled a checkbook from his inside suit pocket.

Because his hands were shaking so badly, he squandered two checks while filling in the numbers.

Finally, a check for $8 was handed to Cao Kun.

Cao Kun took the check, glanced at the number and signature on it, and then put it away.

"From now on, stay away from those old houses that have been abandoned for a long time." Cao Kun's smile faded, and his tone became calm.

Nolan nodded repeatedly, his expression complex: "I will never touch a house like that again in my life."

"That's all for now. If you need anything else, feel free to call me anytime."

Cao Kun turned and walked towards the gate.

Back in his Beverly mansion, Cao Kun entered the system interface.

Merit points: 8392300.

"More than three million merit points, it was worth the trip."

Cao Kun's lips curled into a smile.

Kayako's cultivation is indeed high; if he had met her when he first transmigrated, he would definitely not have been her match.

But now, in his eyes, even this level of strange tales is just a slightly larger experience pack.

That's right, even though I have more than 800 million merit points, I still can't level up.

This is a bit of a pain in the ass.

"Chris," Cao Kun called out casually.

The phone screen lit up, and the succubus's exquisitely beautiful face appeared on the screen.

The succubus looked terrified: "The aura of that house was truly disgusting; I didn't even dare to probe it with my spiritual sense."

Cao Kun: "Kayako is still very powerful, it's normal that you're no match for her."

"How's things going with those two women lately?"

Chris immediately regained her professional demeanor, her fingers flying across the screen.

"Miss Rachel is already on standby on set."

Miss Anne, on the other hand, recently received several scripts with explicit content, but she rejected them without hesitation.

Cao Kun laughed: "She already has 'Hancock' and 'The Devil Wears Prada,' why would she still be interested in those explicit scripts?"

"Master, Amanda and Jessica have been texting each other more frequently lately."

Chris said, "Amanda has been turning down all script offers ever since the promotion for 'The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants' ended."

She's been waiting for your opinion.

Cao Kun raised an eyebrow and smiled, "She does have patience."

Chris clicked on another document: "The same goes for Jessica."

Fantastic Four made her a huge star.

But she felt that the commercial film scripts that came to her were all too dry and uninteresting.

Aside from showing off her body, there's nothing profound about it. She wants to hear your opinion.
