Chapter 210: Chapter 210 The Dream-Eating

Chapter 210 The Dream-Eating Spirit

It looked like a human, but its appearance was terrifying . Its body was a shiny green as if it was filled with green fluid . It sat on her shoulder and hugged her neck . It licked her neck .

Suddenly, the spirit sensed something different . It looked at the mirror, jumped up, and tried to escape .

Ye Shaoyang was prepared . He raised his palm and smacked it on its head . The spirit groaned . It rolled on the ground and laid on its stomach, looking fiercely at Ye Shaoyang .

After Ye Shaoyang revealed its body, everyone could see it without the aid of the Eight-Trigram Mirror . Xiao Xie recovered from the shock . She screamed as she retreated to the door . Tang Hai was terrified too, but he stood in front of her with his arms extended .

Xiao Ma and Old Guo were startled when they saw it . Then, they started to study the spirit .

“What the hell is that?” Xiao Ma stood by Xiao Xie staring at the green spirit . His voice was full of curiosity and no fear .

“The dream-eating spirit,” answered Old Guo, “The dream-eating spirits come from the underworld and are commonly seen . They like to drink the sweat of women, cultivate, and consume blood later . ”

Xiao Ma supported his chin and shook his head and sighed, “It looks so ugly . ”

Xiao Xie almost fainted, but she could not believe that Xiao Ma was still interested in discussing the spirit’s appearance . She muttered, “Aren’t you afraid?”

“No . This is nothing,” Old Guo laughed .

“I am not afraid even if I can’t defeat it . ” Xiao Ma pouted at Ye Shaoyang, “There is nothing to be afraid when he is here . ”

Xiao Xie and Tang Hai switched their gaze to Ye Shaoyang .

Ye Shaoyang stooped down at the ugly green spirit looking leisurely . On the contrary, the spirit appeared nervous and kept retreating . Suddenly, it cried in despair, sprung up and spat a mouthful of green fluid at Ye Shaoyang .

He drew out the Peach Wood Sword, waving fast to repel the fluid . He then turned around and saw the fluid on the wall and smelled foul .

“Damn it! You dirtied my house!” scolded Ye Shaoyang .

He looked back at the dream-eating spirit . It did not launch another attack . A strange voice came from its throat . A dozen colors flashed across its eyes and would make one feel sick after staring too long . Xiao Xie and the others felt sleepy and began to doze off .

“How dare you play tricks on them! I will teach you a lesson!” Ye Shaoyang initiated a hand seal and slapped its head . Before it managed to fight back, he seized it and stuck a talisman paper on its head to absorb it .

His hands were covered in green fluid, which was corrosive to human skin but did not have any effect on him . However he did felt disgusted, so he went to the washroom and washed it away . As he came out, he saw that Xiao Xie and Tang Hai had remained in the same position and stared at him with wide eyes .

“Is everything okay?” Xiao Xie’s voice trembled .

“Yeah,” Ye Shaoyang turned around and looked at the dirty wall, filling the house with a rotten smell . Then, he said to Xiao Ma, “200 Yuan for cleaning the wall . ”

“Only two hundred Yuan?” Xiao Ma protested .

“Too little? You think you have become a big boss with some cash now? Fine! . ”

Xiao Ma gave a second thought . Cleaning the wall would not take more than half an hour, and two hundred Yuan could be considered good pay . So, he went to the washroom and filled up a pale of water and started wiping the wall with a cloth while Ye Shaoyang and Old Guo swept and mopped the floor respectively . The three of them had forgotten the existence of Xiao Xie and Tang Hui .

Xiao Xie stared at the three of them and could not believe three sorcerers were doing housework like housewives . None of them had a Daoist poise .

“Heavenly Master Ye,” Xiao Xie called cowardly .

“Oi! Don’t pretend as if the ceiling is clean!” Ye Shaoyang scolded as he mopped the floor . He turned around and asked, “Yes?”

“Where is the spirit? You have captured it?” asked Xiao Xie .

“Yup . ”

“Can you explain to me what it was?”

Knowing that every customer had their right to learn the truth, Ye Shaoyang explained the details to her . When he finished, Xiao Xie finally understood the whole incident .

“No wonder I was having nightmares recently . It was because of that spirit,” Xiao Xie mumbled as she touched her neck . All that time, the spirit was sitting on her shoulder and licking her neck . No wonder she kept feeling itchy . A cold sensation ran down her spine . It was so scary and disgusting .

“Er, Heavenly Master Ye, since you have captured it, it will not disturb me anymore, right?”

“Certainly . ”

Xiao Xie let out a long sigh and felt thankful to Ye Shaoyang, “Heavenly Master, please give me your account number . I will transfer the money later . ”

“Hold on . You can pay after we have completely settled the matter,” Ye Shaoyang put the mop aside and looked at her .

Xiao Xie was stupefied and asked, “I don’t quite understand . I thought you caught the spirit . ”

“This?” Ye Shaoyang pointed at the talisman paper and continued, “This spirit only costs twenty thousand Yuan . Since you sought my help, I can do it for free, but, there is another spirit following you . That is the one which costs three hundred thousand Yuan or more . ”

“Ah!” Xiao Xie shuddered .

The rest were shocked including Old Guo . He wiped his eyes with Qixing grass and found out Xiao Xie was covered with Yin Qi, but he could not see a spirit around her .

Ye Shaoyang continued, “I believe the sorcerers that you hired knew about it . But why didn't they catch it? Because the evil being is powerful and fierce, the sorcerers did not dare to touch it . ”

Xiao Xie’s legs gave way after listening to his words . She cried and begged, “Heavenly Master, where is the spirit? You must capture it . Please!”

Ye Shaoyang shook his hand and said, “It is not around you now . I don’t know what it is, but from the concentration of Yin Qi around you, I can conclude it is a powerful spirit . ”

Xiao Xie hesitated, “Why would it leave suddenly?”

“Because you came to find me . It’s afraid of me, and it is its last resort to offend me . ”

It was common to hear a human afraid of ghosts . In contrast, a spirit in the mortal world or underworld would hide from the Heavenly Master of the Maoshan Sect . None of them dared to offend him without reason, not even a Spirit Overlord .

Ye Shaoyang felt nothing about the facts he told Xiao Xie, but she was amazed and felt how lucky that she had finally found a great sorcerer . Again, she begged piteously, “Heavenly Master, please save me!”

“I will do my best since you will pay me . But, out of curiosity, why would such a powerful spirit follow a normal person like you?”
