Realm of the Night God

Chapter 316: Youre Committing Murder!

Bang!!!

The Bagua Mirror was sent flying by the chain, landing in front of the young man.

At this moment, the Bagua Mirror no longer exuded the powerful waves of energy as before, nor did it emit dazzling light. It became dim and lifeless, resembling an ordinary Bagua Mirror in the hands of a common Taoist.

"Puff!"

The young man couldn't help but spew another mouthful of blood as he looked at the Bagua Mirror before him.

The mystical artifact was damaged, and as the owner of the mystical artifact, he naturally suffered as well. The previous use of the Blood Symbol Talisman on his body had already caused harm, and now with the mystical artifact damaged, the situation became even more dire.

Despite being heavily injured, the young man didn't succumb to frustration. He was not willing to accept defeat so easily.

However, he had run out of options. Using Heaven and Earth as the carrier and the Blood Symbol Talisman as his trump card, it was his current strongest move. Yet, it proved ineffective against Yang Haoran.

He knew he was no match for Yang Haoran. The power gap between them was too significant.

He also realized that Yang Haoran had shown mercy earlier. If Yang Haoran had gone all out, the young man might not have only spat out blood but lost the chance to do so.

"Inferior skills deserve a quick death," the young man wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth and said solemnly to Yang Haoran.

"If I wanted to kill you, you'd already be dead," Yang Haoran chuckled and, with a shake of his hand, the chain transformed into dissipating Yin Qi.

"Heh, don't think I'll thank you for not killing me. You, an evil demonic cultivator like yourself, I..."

Before the young man could finish his words, his voice abruptly stopped. He looked at Yang Haoran's side with a shocked expression.

Yang Haoran maintained his smile, turning to see Fifth Sister wielding a brick, poised to strike towards his head.

The little girl behind him changed her expression, attempting to rush forward and intervene. However, she found her body seemingly immobilized, unable to move.

Even if she could move, it wouldn't have stopped Fifth Sister. As an undead, her soul body couldn't obstruct Fifth Sister in any way; rushing forward would have been futile.

But she didn't think about all this. Her instinctive attempt to stop Fifth Sister was cut short by an unexpected force, anchoring her soul body in place.

Fifth Sister had been searching for an opportunity to strike against Yang Haoran. Her plan was simple: kill Yang Haoran, and the young man would surely take care of the little girl. Then, no one would know about Fifth Sister killing the girl.

Although killing Yang Haoran would also be murder, she could frame it as self-defense, even if excessive. It was still a more favorable situation than outright murder.

Having witnessed Fifth Sister, with a ferocious expression, charging towards him, Yang Haoran's smile vanished, replaced by a face of horror.

His reaction seemed as if he had been genuinely frightened by this sudden turn of events.

"No!"

"No!"

Two voices cried out simultaneously, one from Yang Haoran, the other from the young man.

"As for the barrier you mentioned, it wasn't very strong to begin with. It was just a common barrier. You easily tore a gap in it earlier. Didn't you notice that?"

"The barrier wasn't powerful, and you tearing it open depleted its strength. It could have lasted a bit longer if not for your destruction happening at the exact moment she was knocked away. Can you really blame me for that?"

"I have no way to control her fate. She attacked me willingly, wanting to kill me. You know, this isn't the outcome I wanted to see."

Yang Haoran shook his head with a helpless expression, as if all of this was just an unfortunate coincidence, something he didn't want to witness.

Though young, the boy wasn't foolish. He found Yang Haoran's words too insincere and couldn't bring himself to believe them.

"Nonsense! You're just spouting nonsense! You..."

Before the young man could finish his words, the sound of chains colliding suddenly echoed around him. Alarmed, he realized something was wrong, and his body was tightly bound by several chains.

"What are you doing?!!" The young man roared at Yang Haoran.

Yang Haoran didn't answer immediately. He disappeared from his original position, leaving the young man with a changed expression, thinking Yang Haoran was about to attack him.

But Yang Haoran didn't. When he reappeared, he was next to Fifth Sister's lifeless body. He then proceeded to forcefully condense and extract Fifth Sister's soul from her body.

Fifth Sister's soul body remained closed-eyed, currently in a state of deep sleep.

"You heartless bastard! You kill people and extract their souls! How can you stoop so low!"

The young man cursed, but Yang Haoran still didn't respond. The soul-gathering bead on his ring faintly lit up as he stored Fifth Sister's soul within it.

Then, Yang Haoran teleported back to stand in front of the young man. Watching the angry young man, he sighed and gave a faint smile before speaking, "Please watch the show, young man. In this movie, there is no joy—only the ugliness and cruelty of human nature."

As he finished speaking, Yang Haoran ignored the struggles and roars of the young man, pointing his finger at the young man's forehead.

With that finger pointed, a Death Mark Seal appeared on the young man's forehead. Despite the young man's attempts to resist, his body suddenly stopped struggling, as if under a petrification spell.

"Ghost eye! Activate!"

Yang Haoran put away his smile, his voice stern. As he spoke, the Death Mark Seal on the young man's forehead lit up. Simultaneously, a faint Yin Qi appeared in his eyes.

Initially, the Yin Qi in his eyes was minimal, but it grew increasingly dense.

Although the young man couldn't move or speak, his consciousness remained clear. He didn't know what Yang Haoran was going to do to him, and he wanted to resist, but his resistance was so feeble it had no effect. He could only let Yang Haoran manipulate him.

As the Yin Qi in his eyes became more concentrated, the young man's eyes began to darken. After a few breaths, his eyes completely turned ink-black!

This was the eye technique "Ghost Eye," possessed only by those from the Yin Division. The young man was an exorcist, not from the Yin Division. The fact that he temporarily acquired this eye technique was due to Yang Haoran's power.

"Take a good look, young man. Don't just judge by appearances."

Saying this, Yang Haoran used his finger to turn the young man's face, directing his gaze toward the bewildered little girl.
