Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department-Chapter 623 - 621: The Consequences of Failing to Seize a Human Pet

Mo Lin's strength is so ridiculous with just a single bead?

This is worlds apart from before!

This thing is even more outrageous than the Jingming Exorcism Swordsmanship used by Mo Lin.

Mo Lin's skin turned grayish-white, without a trace of vitality.

A look of imminent exhaustion.

"Fu Qi, this guy is clearly running out of stamina. If we stall for a moment, we can definitely kill him," Hai Liang said slowly to Fu Qi, noticing Mo Lin's abnormal state.

Reminded by Hai Liang, Fu Qi immediately sensed Mo Lin's condition as well.

"Hai Liang, I just thought of a great plan," Fu Qi slowly said to Hai Liang.

"What plan?" Hai Liang asked Fu Qi in confusion.

"But this plan requires you to sacrifice a bit."

"Me sacrifice?" Hai Liang was about to ask what he needed to sacrifice.

"Squish!"

Blood gathered around and formed into spears, piercing Hai Liang's body.

Hai Liang was instantly turned into a porcupine.

This was Fu Qi's plan.

"Mo Lin, don't kill me."

Fu Qi knew very well that using such power would deplete Mo Lin's body, so he tried using this strategy to save his own life.

By killing Hai Liang, he showed he was no threat.

Besides, Mo Lin had previously expressed he didn't want to kill them.

Combining Mo Lin's current condition, Fu Qi devised the best strategy.

"The woman you're looking for isn't dead. I can help you find her."

Seeing Mo Lin unmoved, Fu Qi added, "If you really fight me, I'm not afraid of you either. Worst case, we both go down."

Once he finished speaking, Fu Qi raised his hands, and the snow and rain halted in the air.

The surrounding blood gathered into a massive blood array.

This was Fu Qi's last resort, and also his most powerful tactic.

Blood Sea Celestial Sacrifice Technique.

If Mo Lin makes a move, it's mutual destruction.

Fu Qi doesn't think he can kill Mo Lin.

Mo Lin has such an outrageous Magical Treasure, killing Mo Lin is unrealistic.

However... he could make Mo Lin lose his combat ability for a year.

"I came here just to steal your money, I haven't harmed your friends.

The people here weren't killed by me, you and I don't need to be enemies," Fu Qi said to Mo Lin again.

He truly didn't want mutual destruction.

He didn't want to die, which is why he kept explaining to Mo Lin.

Seeing Mo Lin still unpersuaded, Fu Qi panicked.

"Using this Magical Treasure drains you significantly, your real enemy isn't me.

We don't have to be enemies.

Moreover, your friend Yun Xue'xue is currently in danger too.

If you forcefully kill me now, will you still have the ability to save Yun Xue'xue?"

Fu Qi shouted at Mo Lin.

At that moment, the purple light was less than a meter away from him, Fu Qi's forehead was sweating nervously.

"I can spare you, but you must agree to one thing," Mo Lin said slowly to Fu Qi.

As for why not kill Fu Qi, the reason is simple.

Because of interests.

Killing Fu Qi has no benefits for Mo Lin, and now Mo Lin is forcibly using the Heaven-Filling Stone, his body is already depleted.

No extra strength left.

Mo Lin had other matters to attend to next, so he decided to spare Fu Qi's life.

To be precise, Mo Lin wanted to use Fu Qi for his purposes.

"Alright, alright," Fu Qi agreed without hesitation.

If he doesn't agree, he will die, how could he refuse?

"Sign the contract!"

Thus, Fu Qi reluctantly signed a contract with Mo Lin.

The general idea of the contract was that Fu Qi could no longer harm Mo Lin and agreed to help Mo Lin with one thing.

After signing the contract, Mo Lin then stored the Heaven-Filling Stone.

The Heaven-Filling Stone returned to Mo Lin's mouth, and he swallowed the Heaven-Filling Stone in one gulp.

At this moment, Mo Lin was so exhausted that even breathing was difficult.

His chest heaved heavily as he breathed.

Seeing Mo Lin so despondent, Fu Qi didn't look down on Mo Lin, on the contrary.

He was more afraid.

Mo Lin's strength is so formidable, yet using a Magical Treasure takes such effort.

What does this mean?

This Magical Treasure is immensely powerful, outrageously so.

Mo Lin now looked like frail old man, standing up seemed to take the last of his strength.

"What do you need me to do?" Fu Qi asked Mo Lin.

He really didn't want too much involvement with Mo Lin.

Fu Qi's thoughts were simple, help Mo Lin accomplish his task, and never provoke Mo Lin again.

It's that simple.

"Help me find Luo Xiaoxiao, and while you're at it, save Yun Xue'xue," Mo Lin said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Fu Qi's face turned dark.

Is this one task?

This is clearly two tasks.

Isn't this using him as a tool?

Fu Qi then realized Mo Lin's cunning ways.

In the previous battle with Hai Liang, Mo Lin deliberately feigned weakness, then delivered a fatal blow to Hai Liang.

And now, Mo Lin pretended to want to kill him, forcing Fu Qi to compromise and utilize Fu Qi.

This person is frightening.

Just thinking about it gave Fu Qi shivers.

"Fine, I'll go with you to rescue them," Fu Qi reluctantly agreed.

In fact, he couldn't refuse.

"If I hadn't begged for mercy just now, would you have killed me?" Fu Qi probed Mo Lin.

"Yes," Mo Lin answered decisively.

If Fu Qi didn't beg for mercy, it would mean Fu Qi had no weakness, wasn't afraid of death.

Such a person must be eliminated, or he would pose a great threat.

Fu Qi took a deep breath and said nothing more.

Mo Lin followed Fu Qi to find Luo Xiaoxiao.

Mo Lin had just walked a few steps when a shadow blocked his path.

Mo Lin lowered his head, only then realizing it was Wan Foli.

Wan Foli seemed to have lost the ability to walk, crawling on all fours on the ground.

Wan Foli knelt before Mo Lin, frantically kowtowing to him.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

The crisp sound of kowtowing echoed.

This wasn't a concrete ground, it was dirt.

To produce such a thudding sound required a great deal of force in kowtowing.

Wan Foli just kept kowtowing without saying a word.

It was uncertain whether it was fear or excitement, but Wan Foli's body was trembling.

"Speak if you have something to say," Mo Lin said coldly to Wan Foli.

Only then did Wan Foli slowly look up.

Up close, Mo Lin could clearly see Wan Foli's appearance.

His face was sallow, skin lacking any redness, eyes sunken in, and many teeth had fallen out.

Bloodstains marked the corners of his mouth.

Moreover, Wan Foli emitted a foul smell.

Wan Foli clutched his throat, then mouthed to Mo Lin, "Kill me.. kill me.."

From the mouth movements, this was the meaning.

Wan Foli was begging for death.

"This person was affected by the Immortal Island's technique, he wants death but cannot commit suicide."

Fu Qi calmly said as he looked at Wan Foli's miserable state, "It's likely the Immortal Island's contest of human pets, he was defeated.

Which is why he ended up like this."

Upon hearing Fu Qi's words, Mo Lin turned to leave.

"You fought for human pets, ended up like this — it's your own fault.

You must bear the consequences of your deeds."

Mo Lin snorted coldly at Wan Foli.

Wan Foli ended up this miserable because he lost in the competition for human pets.

On the other hand, if he succeeded in the competition for human pets?

Would he still be like this?

Life has no "if"... but... Mo Lin didn't plan to help Wan Foli.

"We're not friends, I have no reason to help you," Mo Lin's words were unsentimental.

He had past grievances with Wan Foli, why would he help him?

Of course... if there were some benefits or rewards, Mo Lin might change his mind.

But for now, Mo Lin did not intend to help Wan Foli end his life.
