I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

Li Yuan's words, spoken without thinking, exploded like a bomb in the hearts of the parents in the living room.

The panicked parents hurriedly tried to comfort them:

"No! There's no need to call the police; it's just kids playing around."

"Yes, yes, Ken! It's your son who went too far, it's not Mr. Li Yuan's fault!"

"Jesse is so rude, Ken, you should discipline your son."

Everyone started talking at once.

Some people offered advice, while others criticized.

But the only goal was to keep Li Yuan calm and prevent him from calling the police.

They were afraid that if they actually called the police, they would be held responsible.

Because they killed Freddy by vigilante justice without the police's knowledge!

Seeing this, Jesse's parents finally calmed down.

Calling the police is out of the question. Let my son take the beating; he really deserves it.

Li Yuan chuckled and raised his hand to signal everyone to quiet down.

"Alright, I'm here to exorcise demons, not to help you educate your children."

Then, Li Yuan asked the crucial question:

"Now, I need to find where Freddy was killed. Can any of you tell me?"

These are evil spirits from the spirit world with a strong desire for revenge.

Li Yuan guessed it wouldn't hide too far.

There's a high probability that Freddy will return to the place where he died.

That is where its power originates.

Li Yuan's words silenced all the parents present.

They hesitated whether or not to tell Li Yuan the location.

If they told him, they were afraid Li Yuan would report them to the police.

But if we don't tell them, the children will be in danger.

At this moment, Nora spoke first:

"I know, I'll take you there!"

She looked at her daughter Chris with heartache, not wanting her to get hurt in any way.

They were willing to kill Freddy for their child back then.

What's there to be afraid of now?

Seeing Nora step forward first,

Parents who had thought it through responded readily and no longer hesitated.

Seeing this, Li Yuan glanced at the gradually setting sun outside the window and said softly:

"Let's go, I'll take care of that guy as soon as possible."

A moment later, the parents drove out of Spring Town in a long procession.

They sped off toward an abandoned factory outside the town.

Freddy was cornered there by the parents and burned alive.

On the way, the parents encountered several police cars speeding by, and were immediately terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat.

They thought the murder had been exposed.

"It seems another tragedy has occurred."

Edward, who was driving, muttered something, then explained to Li Yuan:

"There have been several murders in the Los Angeles area recently,"

The victims' deaths were all quite gruesome, as if they had been eaten alive.

Li Yuan frowned and said, "Is some evil creature at work?"

"It's not certain, but there was a deep hole in the yard of each victim's house."

Li Yuan nodded without saying anything.

He planned to go and see for himself after Freddy's commission was completed.

Shortly afterward, the convoy slowly came to a stop in front of the factory.

Li Yuan got out of the car and said to everyone:

"You guys just wait outside, I'll go in and take care of Freddy."

As he spoke, Li Yuan glanced once more at the parents getting off the bus and said softly:

"Of course, you can also choose a few people to come in and witness, although you may not necessarily see anything."

"No need, Mr. Li Yuan, we trust you."

Nora spoke first again; she trusted Li Yuan completely.

Because her daughter had already told her what had just happened in the bedroom.

Seeing that the other parents had no objections, Li Yuan nodded and said:

"Okay, see you later."

In the afterglow of the setting sun,

Li Yuan led Edward and Jamie slowly into the abandoned factory.

The factory was pitch black. Li Yuan turned on his headlamp and looked around.

A moment later, he chose a dark room.

Li Yuan entered the room and took out a table and chairs from the system space and arranged them.

Next, the prepared candles were lit.

The faint candlelight illuminated a small space.

"Edward, Jamie."

Li Yuan called out to the two of them, and then earnestly gave them instructions:

"Next, I will enter the spirit world to find Freddy."

Your task is to protect my body.

Don't let anyone hurt it, understand?

"clear!"

The two answered in unison, their eyes revealing a determined look.

Li Yuan nodded, which was also why he didn't want to use this move easily.

Without physical protection, the body is too vulnerable to danger.

Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Li Yuan slowly closed his eyes and focused his mental energy in his mind.

The next moment, when Li Yuan opened his eyes again, his soul had already left his body and entered the spirit world.

The dark and monotonous colors surrounding the spirit realm made Li Yuan feel slightly uncomfortable.

After getting used to the environment for a while,

Li Yuancai slowly walked out of the room and began searching for Freddy's figure in the spirit world.

The abandoned factory was huge; Li Yuan only vaguely remembered it.

It appears that Freddy died in a boiler room.

However, shortly after he stepped out of the room, he was shocked to discover that...

Beside the main entrance, a hunched and thin figure was huddled up.

"Holy crap, it's so close!"

Looking at Freddy so close to him, Li Yuan couldn't help but mutter something under his breath:

"No wonder these parents brought me here directly."

Freddy seemed to hear Li Yuan's mutterings.

He slowly raised his top hat and looked in the direction of the sound.

Upon seeing Li Yuan's face clearly, his expression immediately froze.

Recalling the brutal beating he had just suffered, he cried out in a mournful voice:

"You perverted bastard! Do you want to wipe us all out?"

"Damn it, can you please rephrase your words?! Who's the pervert here?"

Freddy's words infuriated Li Yuan.

This was the first time he'd ever been called a pervert by a pervert...

Freddy slowly stood up, a cruel glint in his eyes, and said with a smile:

"Ha, I might not be your match in the real world, but here, this is my territory!"

"Well, I hope you can stay this optimistic later."

Li Yuan nodded calmly.

He then retrieved the Brotherhood Sword, which had not yet been stained with blood, from the system space!

"Come on, the sword of my Brotherhood does not fall to nameless men, Freddy, you should be proud of that."

Looking at the blood-red greatsword that Li Yuan suddenly pulled out.

Freddy glanced instinctively at the steel claws on his hands.

But we've already said those tough words, wouldn't it be incredibly shameful to run away now?

Moreover, Freddy didn't want to leave Springtown.

It only wants to complete its revenge here.

"Come on, you foolish exorcist, let me see just how sharp your sword really is!"

Freddy had barely finished speaking when he vanished from his spot!

When he reappeared, he was already behind Li Yuan in an instant.

He suddenly swung the steel claws on his hands, trying to tear Li Yuan to pieces!

However, just as its hands were about to strike Li Yuan's body...

Suddenly, Li Yuan twisted his body, revealing a blood-red greatsword in his right hand.

He effortlessly lifted it up and slashed it towards the upper left corner.

The lightning-fast movement left Freddy with only enough time to instinctively extend his steel claws to defend himself.

"Sizzle—"

After a short, sharp metallic clanging sound,

The Brotherhood sword rose without hindrance, drawing a trail of crimson blood.

Freddy stared wide-eyed at Li Yuan in disbelief.

He only managed to mutter one sentence:

"Indeed...very sharp..."

[Ding! Defeat A-rank Nightmare: Freddy! Gain 7 Holy Light Points and 400 Experience Points!]

As the notification tone sounded,

Freddy's body instantly broke in two and fell lightly to the ground.

When Li Yuan sheathed the Brotherhood sword, he habitually flicked the blade.

To their surprise, not a single drop of blood remained on the sword.

But the blood-red blade appeared even brighter.

Li Yuan didn't pay attention; after confirming Freddy's death...

He waved his hand, put away his weapon, closed his eyes again, and quickly returned to the real world.

But the moment Li Yuan opened his eyes,

To their astonishment, they discovered that there was a fight going on inside the pitch-black room!

Jamie, holding a pistol, stood guard beside him with a tense expression.
