Chapter 152 The Appearance of The Underworld Midwife 2

However, the underworld midwife was ready for the attack .

‘Hmph!’

She turned her shackle into a giant snake and wrapped it around the talisman paper . ‘Boom!’ It exploded in the middle, and the talisman paper dropped on the ground . The explosion threw the underworld midwife back, and blood Qi gushed out from her body .

The underworld midwife became visible . Ye Shaoyang immediately cut his fingertip, wrote ‘Chi’ in Chinese seal script style on the Eight-trigram Mirror, and recited an incantation . With a smack, the mirror emitted a ray of purple light over the blood Qi .

Then, Ye Shaoyang pulled out the Qixing Dragon Sword with the intention to finish her . Suddenly, his legs tensed up . He looked down and saw a pool of black blood . He hadn’t noticed when it appeared and spread around him . Out of the blood, a pair of hands appeared and grasped his ankles . The hands pulled down hard and dragged him to the ground . A lady with distorted features and covered in blood climbed out of the pool and lunged at him .

A bloody muddled spirit!

The underworld midwife summoned her spirit servant to help her at this critical moment .

Ye Shaoyang did not waste time . He held up the Qixing Dragon Sword and slashed . A purple aura chopped the bloody muddled spirit into two . It turned into blood and mixed with the pool of blood . The pool of blood then gradually disappeared .

Ye Shaoyang panted as he looked up . The purple aura collided with the blood Qi . Then, a black shadow faded and flew out the door .

Ye Shaoyang sighed . If the bloody muddled spirit had not blocked his way, he mostly could have captured or killed the underworld midwife . It would be challenging to catch her again since she could turn invisible .

Ye Shaoyang sat on the ground . After he rested for a while, he gathered his scattered ritual tools and turned around . The bloody muddled spirit had been broken into pieces . The pool of blood was an illusion that was part of its Hun, thus the illusion would disappear once it died .

Xiao Ma and Xu Yajuan woke up and they were shocked when they realized that the room was a mess . Nervously, they asked Ye Shaoyang what had happened . Ye Shaoyang told them about the whole incident .

Xu Yajuan fainted at the beginning . She could not accept what had happened and was lost in her thoughts .

“Does that mean you managed to save the infant spirit?” asked Xiao Ma .

He felt happy when Ye Shaoyang nodded .

“Cool! You’ve saved two infant spirits in one night . I remembered you said they could return to their bodies . Although their mothers have died, they are lucky that they can return to being humans . ”

However, Ye Shaoyang did not look happy . He frowned, “Only if we kill the underworld midwife and destroy her Hun energy can the infant spirits return to their body and reconnect with their Hun and Po . The underworld midwife escaped and it will be tough to capture her again . ”

Suddenly, Ye Shaoyang thought of something . He glared at Xiao Ma, “Where is the Blood Stamped Talisman Paper that I gave you? I asked you to stick it on the lintel when the underworld midwife came in . What were you doing?”

Xiao Ma gave Ye Shaoyang an innocent look and waved his hands, “Don’t blame me . I was on standby over there when you fought . When I planned to stick the talisman paper, a chilling sensation crawled up from my feet and then I lost consciousness . I’m still feeling a bit of numbness over my whole body . ”

Ye Shaoyang hooked over Xiao Ma’s right hand . He circulated his Gang Qi through Xiao Ma’s pulse and found out a remnant of spirit Qi remained in Xiao Ma’s body . The finding shocked Ye Shaoyang . He frowned, “This is impossible . You have a consecrated Protection Talismans with you . Besides, your three mortal lamps are still strong . It should have been impossible for the underworld midwife to possess you . ”

Xiao Ma said, “Maybe she is too powerful . ”

“She is not as powerful as you think . She is difficult to deal with because she is usually invisible . Three underworld midwives are no match against one Feng Xinyu if she showed up . That time, Feng Xinyu could possess Xie Yuqing because they had similar Bazi . Do you think it is easy to possess someone?”

Xiao Ma scratched his head, “Well, I don’t know how, but she managed to do it, so she must have her way . ”

Xiao Ma’s reply reminded Ye Shaoyang . He started to think of the possible ways the underworld midwife could have possessed Xiao Ma in such a short time period . Suddenly, he thought of one possibility, but he didn’t say it .

“Ah . . . Who are you?” A man’s voice suddenly appeared and frightened the three of them . They turned around . It was Old Wu . The infant spirit possessed him and brought him here . When the infant spirit left his body, he fainted and laid under the operation bed . Even Ye Shaoyang had forgotten about his presence .

“Why am I here?” Old Wu looked around in shock .

Ye Shaoyang’s eyes rolled up . He decided not to tell Old Wu the truth as he was afraid that Old Wu would lose his mind if he knew that he had moved corpses and put makeup on them every night .

“I don’t know . We also don’t know why we are here,” Ye Shaoyang shrugged his shoulders, “Maybe the wind blew us here?”

“What a silly story, you fool!” Old Wu staggered out of the room . As he ran, he shook his head and muttered, “I must be sleepwalking, I must be sleepwalking… . ”

Xiao Ma pouted his lips in the direction of Old Wu’s back, “Is he okay?”

“No worries . He might feel weak because of the long-term possession . He just needs to rest for a short period, but I’m not well now,” said Ye Shaoyang .

The spirit Qi of the underworld midwife had smacked him when he tried to save the infant spirit and caused him to vomit blood . Now, he still had a slight pain in his chest as he panted .

Ye Shaoyang asked them to rest while he sat on the ground and circulated energy for a minor cycle . He felt better after that .

“Big brother Shaoyang, how do you feel now?” Xu Yajuan asked in a concerned manner . She felt relieved after Ye Shaoyang assured her that he was fine . Then, she asked, “What should we do next?”

“I don’t have a plan yet . Let me think about it,” Ye Shaoyang said .

Ye Shaoyang and Xiao Ma sent Xu Yajuan back to her hostel in the hospital . On the ground floor of her hostel block, Xu Yajuan hesitated and didn’t dare to go up .

Ye Shaoyang understood that she was a girl who had just experienced a haunted incident . It was normal to feel scared . He took out a Protection Talisman and gave it to her .

Xu Yajuan illuminated the Protection Talisman with her mobile phone . The pendant of the talisman was a semi-transparent agate colored stone . She happily took it and gave Ye Shaoyang a sweet smile, “Thank you for your gift, Big Brother Shaoyang . I’ll always carry it with me . When I see it, I’ll think of you and fear nothing . ”

Her statement left Ye Shaoyang speechless . He said goodbye to her and left with Xiao Ma . On the way, Xiao Ma made fun of him .

“Little Ye, don’t you think the nurse has fallen for you?”

Xiao Ma continued even though Ye Shaoyang did not answer him, “Little Ye, I noticed the Protection Talisman you gave to her is a different color from mine, why?”

Ye Shaoyang replied, “It’s because my blood is in her Protection Talisman . ”

Ye Shaoyang’s words stunned Xiao Ma . He muttered, “So, is this a life and death exchange ceremony?”

Ye Shaoyang glared at Xiao Ma but said nothing .

After Ye Shaoyang took a bath, he sat in his room in contemplation for very long time . He formulated a plan and inferred quite a few things about the truth behind this case . He told every detail of his plan to Xiao Ma, and after listening to his plan, Xiao Ma remained tongue-tied for a long time .
