"The things I brought back..."

Scarlett's eyes suddenly lit up as she thought of something:

"Yes! I brought one back..."

Scarlett was about to tell Li Yuan, but she hadn't finished speaking.

The next second, a familiar voice rang in their ears:

"Well....."

A series of clear yet deep bubble sounds came from behind Li Yuan's head!

The two people who heard the sound slowly turned their heads.

Then I saw a woman with long hair covering her face, hanging upside down in the corner of the wall.

Looking at her pale, twisted body and the empty eyes peeking out from between her hair, Li Yuan instantly recognized her!

Holy crap!

Li Yuan's eyes widened, and he jumped up from the sofa.

A chill ran down my spine: 'Kayako! This is truly a childhood nightmare!'

"ah--!"

Scarlett screamed and ran behind Li Yuan.

She was so frightened by the bizarre scene before her that she trembled uncontrollably.

Scarlett gripped Li Yuan's arm and asked in a trembling voice:

"What...what is this? She wasn't here before!"

Li Yuan suddenly felt a soft pressure on his arm.

Some people, their minds wandering, sighed inwardly:

"As expected, it lives up to its reputation..."

Just then, a little boy with dark circles under his eyes and a pale face suddenly appeared beside Scarlett.

He stood on the sofa, opened his mouth wide, and let out a chilling meow:

"Meow--!"

"Ah—! It's him!"

Scarlett was so frightened that she quickly covered her eyes.

[Seal of Justice]!

Upon seeing Junxiong appear, Li Yuan immediately activated his skill.

Immediately, a fist flashing with golden light slammed fiercely towards Junxiong!

"Bang!"

With the blessing of the Holy Seal, Junxiong, who was hit by the fist, was instantly blasted into a wisp of black smoke.

However, no kill notification came after the opponent's soul disappeared.

Before Li Yuan could think further, Kayako's eerie long hair suddenly wrapped around him.

Seeing this, Li Yuan wanted to dodge, but Scarlett was still holding onto his arm tightly from behind.

Left with no other choice, Li Yuan had to confront Kayako head-on.

Her hands, gleaming with golden patterns, suddenly gripped Kayako's tossed hair.

I want to see if I can purify the other party.

The moment Li Yuan grabbed the strands of hair with both hands,

A sizzling sound rang out in my palm.

The hair that Li Yuan grabbed instantly turned into a cloud of black smoke.

Meanwhile, the Kayako on the roof also let out a mournful wail.

Taking this opportunity, Li Yuan quickly retrieved a bottle of holy water from his system space.

After uncorking the bottle, he poured the holy water directly onto the wailing Kayako.

*Sizzle!*

Black smoke, accompanied by a foul stench, filled the room.

Scarlett was choked by the disgusting smell and gagged repeatedly.

Li Yuan covered his mouth and nose and asked loudly:

"Where are the things you brought back from Japan? Take me there now!"

Upon hearing this, Scarlett quickly pulled Li Yuan into her bedroom.

She pointed eagerly to a string of antique wind chimes hanging on the window:

"This is what I brought back from Japan!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan hurriedly ran to the window and pulled the wind chime down!

The wind chime held in Li Yuan's hand suddenly felt a burning sensation.

Before Li Yuan could react, it spontaneously combusted!

When Li Yuan looked down, he was shocked to discover that...

Kayako's hideous face, accompanied by a foul stench, rushed towards him.

This terrifying childhood trauma sent a shiver down Li Yuan's spine.

However, just as the phantom was about to touch Li Yuan, it dissipated on its own.

Only a frustrated roar remained in the room.

[Ding! Destroyed D-rank remnant soul: Kayako clone, gained 4 Holy Light Points and 50 Experience Points]

"call..."

Upon hearing the message from the system, Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

If a remnant soul can reach rank D, how strong must the original body be?

He put aside his thoughts and looked at Scarlett, who was still in shock beside him:

"Miss Scarlett, the matter has been resolved."

"Really...really?"

Scarlett glanced at Li Yuan's hand that was holding the wind chime with lingering fear.

"Of course! You'll see."

Li Yuan slowly opened his hands, revealing the once simple and exquisite wind chimes.

It had already turned into a handful of ashes, which slowly drifted towards the ground.

"My God..."

Scarlett couldn't believe her eyes.

Hidden within the beautiful handicrafts she purchased were two vengeful ghosts...

"Mr. Li, thank you so much for your help. I apologize for my previous ignorance."

Scarlett apologized to Li Yuan with lingering fear, and at the same time cautiously asked:

"Were they really wiped out?"

"To be honest, no."

Li Yuan smiled and shook his head, noticing that Scarlett's expression had tensed up again.

He quickly added, "But you don't need to worry, she shouldn't be a threat to you anymore."

Li Yuan pointed to the ashes on the ground and said:

"She can influence you primarily through the media."

"That's good..."

Thinking of the terrifying woman who had just been hanging from the roof,

Scarlett's face turned pale with fright:

"She's absolutely terrifying..."

Li Yuan walked to Scarlett's side, gently patted her back, and whispered words of comfort:

"It's alright, Miss Scarlett, it's all over."

Having just experienced a terrifying event, Scarlett instinctively leaned against Li Yuan.

When her body touched Li Yuan's warm embrace,

Scarlett instantly regained her senses.

She immediately straightened up, her expression quickly returning to normal after a brief change.

Scarlett asked Li Yuan hesitantly:

"Mr. Li, could you... could you sell me another bottle of that exorcism potion?"

Recalling the effects of the exorcism potion Li Yuan had used during his previous exorcism...

Scarlett secretly regretted it:

"What an idiot I was, wasting $10..."

"no problem."

Li Yuan readily ignored what had just happened.

Smiling, he took out a bottle of golden holy water and handed it to Scarlett.

"I'll give you a discount, I'll only charge you $8."

Li Yuan explained with a smile:

"After all, I also bear some responsibility for not explaining its usage clearly."

Scarlett nodded happily upon hearing this.

After writing a check, he assured Li Yuan:

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will promote your firm."

"Thank you very much. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions."

After receiving the check, Li Yuan waved goodbye to Scarlett.

I left the apartment.

Edward, who had been waiting below for a long time, asked Li Yuan curiously:

"So, does the female celebrity's house smell good?"

Li Yuan slapped his head speechlessly and complained:

"Let's go, they all taste the same."

With a buzz, Li Yuan's phone received a text message from Megan after she woke up.

"Really? I don't believe you. Unless you take me with you next Halloween."

"No problem, just don't scream in fright."

Li Yuan smiled as he pressed his phone.

Edward, who was driving, glanced at Li Yuan out of the corner of his eye and made a sarcastic remark:

"Are you trying to unleash the 'talent' you didn't have time to develop in college in the glitz and glamour of Los Angeles?"

"Be careful not to overexert yourself."

Li Yuan rolled his eyes at him and chuckled, "Just drive carefully, don't crash into a tree."

While Li Yuan and Edward were heading to the firm, two other groups were heading in the same direction.

The bodies of the three people who were killed last night were discovered at different times.

The three people who died all had some kind of entanglement with Li Yuan.

This is bound to attract the attention of the police and the church.
