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

Li Yuan took the keys and walked briskly out of the elevator.

He turned to Garrett in the elevator and instructed him:

"Prepare dinner, I'll be done soon."

Garrett didn't speak, but bowed slightly to Li Yuan again as the elevator doors slowly closed.

The corridor was illuminated by orange lights.

Li Yuan stepped onto the dark red carpet and slowly walked towards room 1408 following the signs.

He looked around the hallway with great interest.

Surprisingly, it was discovered that the place was completely untouched by any renovations.

It still bears the marks of time.

A moment later, filled with doubt, Li Yuan finally arrived at the door of room 1408.

He examined the antique-style key in his hand.

After a moment, he laughed and complained:

"A place that has no cultural heritage likes to emphasize following tradition."

Li Yuan shook his head, casually inserted the key into the lock, and slowly turned the key to open the door.

Click.

The door lock clicked softly, and Li Yuan reached out and pushed the door open.

But the moment he pushed open the door, a chilling coldness crept up Li Yuan’s hand holding the key and went straight to his chest!

Startled, Li Yuan immediately released his grip, instinctively took a half-step back, and looked solemnly at the half-open room.

The pitch-black space behind the door was like the gaping maw of a monster, sending chills down one's spine.

After a moment, Li Yuan calmed down, and his eyes regained their firmness.

"Damn it! What's there to be so arrogant about!"

He hissed in a low voice:

"No matter how much resentment they have, they're just a bunch of earthbound spirits. I've been to hell!"

As Li Yuan spoke, he patted his body, and a blue streak of light flashed past the corner of his eye.

[Spiritual Blessing] Successfully bestowed!

With the blessing of spiritual energy, Li Yuan's mind cleared up instantly.

Then he held an opened bottle of holy water,

He pushed open the door and strode inside.

Perhaps it was a psychological effect, or perhaps the 3 points of spiritual power from the [Spiritual Blessing] were working.

Li Yuan, standing in the room,

I never felt that chilling cold again.

At this moment, in Li Yuan's eyes, room 1408 was...

Just like any other guest room, it had nothing special about it.

'Pat'

Li Yuan reached out and turned on all the lights in the room.

What comes into view are white cabinets, striped sofas, and some very retro furniture.

Everything in the room was exactly as it had been before it was burned down.

It was reproduced in a 1:1 scale.

However, compared to these ordinary decorations,

Li Yuan was more concerned about where the earthbound spirits in this room were.

He paced slowly around the room, carefully observing every corner.

However, the room was completely silent.

The only sound was the 'tap-tap' of Li Yuan's shoes on the floor.

Just as he finished inspecting the living room and was heading towards the bedroom,

The chandelier on the ceiling suddenly flickered for no apparent reason.

Immediately afterward, before Li Yuan could turn around,

Then I felt a light, floating sensation on my back!

Li Yuan turned around immediately to check, only to find nothing behind him.

This feeling of being manipulated instantly ignited a nameless anger within Li Yuan.

The technician's hammer slowly slid into his palm, and Li Yuan grinned and cursed:

"Damn it, you dare to play these tricks on me!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Yuan suddenly turned around and swung the Technician's Hammer behind him with a strong wind!

'Bang!'

Li Yuan's swift and decisive attack indeed hit its target.

A wisp of black smoke, accompanied by a mournful wail, vanished into the air in an instant.

[Ding! Destroyed an F-rank Earthbound Spirit: The Suicide Stalker, gaining 2 Holy Light Points and 10 Experience Points!]

Li Yuan smiled dismissively:

"I watched countless horror movies before I came here."

I know exactly what kind of tricks you guys have up your sleeve.

Perhaps it was Li Yuan's shouting that angered the house.

The next moment, a whooshing sound came from behind Li Yuan.

Li Yuan easily twisted aside the attacker who was wielding a large axe.

Before the other party could react, he delivered a blow!

[Ding! Eliminated F-rank Earthbound Spirit: Serial Killer...]

Defeating two earthbound spirits in succession made Li Yuan feel a bit better.

He continued shouting:

"Use whatever other methods you can!"

"I'm in a hurry!"

Before Li Yuan could speak, all the lights in the room went out with a "bang".

Immediately afterwards, a clear sound of running water came from the direction of the restroom.

When Li Yuan looked towards the restroom...

They discovered that the room was completely dark except for a faint light coming from behind the bathroom door.

"Tch, they'll never stop playing these little tricks!"

Li Yuan spat.

Holding holy water in his left hand and a hammer in his right, he strode towards the restroom.

As Li Yuan kicked open the bathroom door with a bang,

As expected, all the faucets in the washbasin were turned on.

And the overflowing water is continuously flowing onto the ground.

Li Yuan ignored the faucet and instead looked at the drawn shower curtain.

At that moment, the sound of rushing water came from inside.

It felt like someone was taking a bath inside.

"You'd better be a beautiful female ghost!"

Li Yuan chuckled and teased, then strode over and ripped the shower curtain off!

"Splash!"

The moment the shower curtain hit the floor,

Li Yuan saw a woman lying in the bathtub, her body swollen from being soaked.

At that moment, the woman slowly turned her head to look at him.

He revealed a twisted smile.

The mouth, submerged in water, opened and closed, uttering a short word:

"Help me..."

Li Yuan nodded, suppressing his nausea.

"Don't worry, we'll help you pass on to the afterlife."

As he spoke, he slowly poured the golden holy water into the bathtub.

This sight of a giant really made Li Yuan hesitate to use his hammer...

Whoosh—!

The moment the holy water entered the bathtub,

The water inside boiled instantly, as if it had been heated.

A woman's scream accompanied by plumes of black smoke rising.

Soon, Li Yuan heard a notification sound in his ear!

[Ding! Eliminated E-rank Earthbound Spirit: Drowned One...]

Li Yuan turned around expressionlessly.

He turned the tap back on and continued the exorcism.

Soon, Li Yuan found three more F-rank earthbound spirits.

And they were successfully resolved one by one.

I don't know if it's due to the rules of earthbound spirits,

The room still cannot completely control the earthbound spirit.

They never attacked Li Yuan together.

Most of them lingered in the same spot where they had died in the room.

So it didn't cause Li Yuan any trouble at all.

As Li Yuan searched for his next target, he chuckled softly:

"You guys actually have some martial ethics."

After searching the room again and finding nothing amiss, Li Yuan put away his tools with peace of mind.

He whistled and slowly walked towards the door.

Ready to conclude this exorcism commission.

Li Yuan, standing at the door, touched his empty stomach and muttered to himself:

"Oh dear, I'm starving! I wonder what kind of dinner the hotel has prepared."

As he spoke, Li Yuan reached out and touched the doorknob.

Just then, a crackling sound suddenly came from the quiet room.

The sound reminded Li Yuan of an old-fashioned tape recorder.

The next moment, a voice mixed with electricity and somewhat distorted suddenly rang out behind Li Yuan.

"Hello... Hello... Hello..."

Li Yuan slowly turned around and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

They found a man sitting on the sofa in the living room, his body burned to a crisp.

His face was charred black, and blood was seeping out from time to time.

But Li Yuan recognized the man's identity at a glance.

He is Mike, the male lead in the movie.

And that greeting came from the portable recorder in his hand!

Li Yuan frowned as he looked at Mike and said in a deep voice:

"Garred asked me to thank you; he is very grateful for your help."

The tape recorder kept repeating "hello" until the sound abruptly stopped.

Mike stared at Li Yuan with a venomous gaze for a moment.

The tape recorder played static again.

"I'll kill you... I'll kill you... I'll kill you..."
