"Exterminate ghosts? When will you be able to find them? Although the number of ghosts within a ten-mile radius may not be too large, they are definitely scattered. Even if you do it this way, you may not be able to eliminate them all in a month."
What Ye Ming said was true. After all, you can only find those wild ghosts one by one to eliminate them. If you eliminate the wild ghosts in this area today, when you go to eliminate the wild ghosts in another area tomorrow, some wild ghosts will inevitably hear the news and hide.
Xiao Yanbao looked up at Ye Ming, who was half a head taller than her, and spoke with a firm gaze and a serious tone.
"There will always be a way. I'll eliminate them one by one. I must make sure Grandpa gets better."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ming's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her lips as she quietly withdrew her arm from Xiao Yanbao's.
"Why don't you beg me? I'll help you, okay?"
Xiao Yanbao turned around and bowed deeply to Ye Ming, remaining there for a long time. Ye Ming had only been joking, but he hadn't expected Xiao Yanbao to actually ask him for help, so he quickly reached out and helped Xiao Yanbao up.
"I was just saying that; I would have saved people even if you hadn't begged me."
Normally, Xiao Yanbao would argue or bicker with Ye Ming, but seeing the frightening blackness on his grandfather's abdomen, all he could think about was saving his grandfather.
"Just wait one more day. These wild ghosts failed today, and the person behind them will definitely not sit still. At the latest, they will make their move again tomorrow. Then we will wipe them all out, and your grandfather will be safe."
Just as Ye Ming finished speaking, Xiao Yanbao bowed again and then said loudly:
"Thank you! But if they don't make a move soon, what about my grandfather?"
As Xiao Yanbao spoke, a magic spell to save lives flashed through his mind again. Overjoyed, Xiao Yanbao immediately began to cast the spell according to his memory. Dots of blue light gathered at the tip of his right index finger. After several dozen seconds, Xiao Yanbao was about to lose control of the blue light at his fingertips, so he quickly placed the blue light above his grandfather's abdomen.
After leaving Xiao Yanbao's fingertips, Qingmang floated down as gently as a feather. When it touched the old man's skin, it vanished instantly, like a snowflake falling into water. Then, the black spot on the old man's abdomen began to tremble as if it had encountered a natural enemy. However, Qingmang was perhaps too weak, and before it could dispel the black spot, its power had completely disappeared.
Standing to the side, Ye Ming was surprised that Xiao Yanbao was already able to use the secret technique of exorcising evil and restoring righteousness in the underworld. After seeing that familiar blue light, Ye Ming's eyes seemed to be lost in memories. A moment later, he saw the power of the blue light disappear.
"Dark Blessing can't save him, and your Dark Blessing is too weak."
Xiao Yanbao was only slightly stunned for a moment, then without even looking at Ye Ming standing behind her, she lowered her head and began to use the unfamiliar Dark Nether Blessing again. Ye Ming, who was standing to the side, was about to stop her, but he opened his mouth but did not say anything.
Soon, points of blue light began to gather at Xiao Yanbao's fingertips again. This time, it lasted for nearly two minutes, and the light was even a size larger than before. This time, Xiao Yanbao did not rush to send the blue light out, but instead persisted, keeping the blue light on his fingertips.
After a full five minutes, Xiao Yanbao's forehead was covered in sweat, with strands of hair sticking to it, making him look extremely tired.
The azure light drifted down onto the skin of the old man of the Li family on his abdomen, and the black spots trembled again. This time, Xiao Yanbao could clearly feel that the power of the azure light was about to touch the black spots. If the power was a little stronger, it would definitely be able to touch them.
The third time, Xiao Yanbao didn't even wipe the sweat from his forehead and continued to use the Dark Nether Blessing he had just learned. Soon, the azure light entered the old man's body again. In just an instant, a black spot visibly trembled and black smoke rose from the skin. Although it only lasted for two or three seconds, Xiao Yanbao saw hope in it.
Seeing that Xiao Yanbao was condensing azure light again despite his own exhaustion, he quickly spoke up to stop him.
"Not only will you not be able to save him, you might even get hurt. What will you do if we need you to eliminate the wandering ghosts tomorrow?"
Xiao Yanbao casually wiped the sweat from the corner of his eye and said firmly:
"I'll dispel some of the stagnation, and Grandpa might feel a little better. Don't worry, I'll control the intensity, and I won't let you down tomorrow."
After saying this, Xiao Yanbao stopped talking and continued to use the Dark Nether Blessing. As midnight approached, Xiao Yanbao had almost dispelled one of the dozens of black spots. As midnight arrived, the black spots quickly disappeared, as if they had been hidden inside the old man's body.
"Gone?"
Xiao Yanbao turned to look at Ye Ming, who nodded slightly, then walked to the old man's side and gently ran his finger across the old man's abdomen.
"This is the evil spirit curse. To cast this spell, there must be an evil spirit by the side of the caster. Each black spot is the transformation of a wild ghost that has been infected by the evil spirit's aura. If most of the evil spirit's aura hadn't been dispersed first, the old man probably wouldn't have made it to tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yanbao immediately thought of the greedy ghost that Jiang Li had sent to the underworld. Could it be that the person who harmed her grandfather had an evil ghost like that greedy ghost by his side?
Thinking of this, Xiao Yanbao looked at Ye Ming and said:
"Are the people who harmed Grandpa surrounded by seven evil spirits?"
Upon hearing Xiao Yanbao mention the Seven Evil Ghosts, Ye Ming looked at Xiao Yanbao with great interest. He was right; Jiang Li and Xiao Yanbao must have encountered one of the Seven Evil Ghosts, but he didn't know which one it was.
"You know about the Seven Deadly Demons?"
Xiao Yanbao nodded gently, and then recounted her encounter with the Greedy Ghost and how Jiang Li sent it into the Underworld. Hearing that Jiang Li had indeed spared one of the Greedy Ghosts, Ye Ming's face was filled with displeasure. She then looked at Xiao Yanbao and said:
"Fortunately, you encountered the Greedy Ghost, the weakest of the Seven Evil Ghosts. If it had been the Cowardly Ghost or the Selfish Ghost, you probably wouldn't have been able to cast a spell before being seriously injured, and this bracelet wouldn't have been able to save you in time."
Coward and selfish ghost? Xiao Yanbao secretly memorized these two ghosts and began to resolve to learn more magic as soon as possible. If he really encountered these two evil ghosts, he would at least protect the people around him, even if it meant giving his own life to protect his loved ones.
"But there's something strange. Has your grandfather been in contact with any strangers recently? I sensed something strange about him, like a demon but not quite."
Xiao Yanbao thought about it carefully. In the past few days, Grandpa had only gone out for a physical examination. If he had come into contact with strangers, it must have been during the examination. However, there were probably quite a few strangers who had come into contact with Grandpa at the hospital, and there was no way to trace them.
