Chapter 150: Chasing Souls

<

Guo Yu was indeed frightened to death by the Skin Ghost initially. At that time, the Skin Ghost had not yet reached the level of a Half-Step Evil Spirit, so it could only retaliate against Guo Yu in a frightening manner.

The reason why the Skin Ghost sought revenge against Guo Yu was naturally because of her actions at the hospital entrance that day.

After scaring Guo Yu to death, the resentment in the Skin Ghost's heart not only did not dissipate but intensified. It returned to the hospital, targeting new victims. Not only living humans but also undead became its targets.

Yang Haoran's guess was not wrong. Due to the heavy resentment before death, when the Skin Ghost's soul condensed into a spirit, its soul body was much stronger than ordinary undead. Therefore, during that period at Tianhe Hospital, newly formed undead suffered devastating blows. Except for a few who managed to escape from Tianhe Hospital, the rest were all devoured and assimilated by the Skin Ghost.

Due to devouring numerous undead and possessing a strong soul body, the Skin Ghost advanced from undead to the level of a Half-Step Evil Spirit in a short period.

As for Guo Yu, after being frightened to death by the Skin Ghost, her soul also condensed into a spirit. She was not a kind-hearted person to begin with, and she harbored deep hatred towards the Skin Ghost that caused her death. So she returned to Tianhe Hospital, ready to settle scores with the Skin Ghost.

Her idea was simple: the Skin Ghost was a ghost, and now she was also a ghost. There was no need to fear each other. She speculated that the Skin Ghost should still be at the hospital. As long as she found the Skin Ghost, she could surely avenge herself!

Thus, the scene just now appeared. Her speculation was correct; the Skin Ghost was indeed at Tianhe Hospital, and she managed to find it!

However, she guessed the beginning but not the ending. Instead of successfully avenging herself, she ended up being completely swallowed by the Skin Ghost!

Guo Yu was frightened to death by the Skin Ghost, and her soul, with deep fear at the time of death, formed a very weak soul body. Even an undead formed from a normal death would be much stronger than her.

When she appeared just now, although the Skin Ghost was severely injured, she was not someone she could deal with. A camel starves to death in the midst of plenty. The Skin Ghost was the camel, and she wasn't even a horse. How could she possibly be the Skin Ghost's match?

As a result, she rushed over in a hurry, but instead of avenging herself, she ended up with her soul scattered.

And the reason why Yang Haoran was trembling with anger was also because of this Guo Yu!

In the eyes of the Skin Ghost, an undead like Guo Yu was a great supplement. Guo Yu foolishly ran to the Skin Ghost, which was like delivering food to it.

Originally, victory was within reach, but Guo Yu inadvertently provided the Skin Ghost with a supplement through her own soul body. How could Yang Haoran not be angry!

Seeing the Soul Gathering Bead miss its target, Yang Haoran sighed and then helped Tong up from the ground. After checking him over, he found that Tong had only fainted and was unharmed, so he handed Tong over to Wang Yiming.

At this moment, Wang Yiming also looked regretful. Seeing that the Skin Ghost merged into the wall without any further action from Yang Haoran, he knew that the Skin Ghost had escaped.

"You take care of him. I'll go after the Skin Ghost."

Upon hearing Yang Haoran's words, Wang Yiming looked anxious and quickly said, "Alone? Are you sure? Wait, let me report the situation here and ask the organization to send more people. We thought it was just a stronger undead, but we didn't expect it to be a Half-Step Evil Spirit!"ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels

"No need, there's no time to wait for your Spirit Police backup. After escaping from here, the Skin Ghost headed outside the hospital. If I don't chase after it immediately, I won't be able to track it down by following its Yin Qi!"

With that, Yang Haoran waved his hand to recall the Soul Gathering Bead, then without waiting for Wang Yiming's reply, he ran towards the entrance of the building.

"Mom! It seems like someone jumped off the building again!"

As soon as he said this, all the patients in the ward became agitated, rushing to the window to see what was happening.

This scene wasn't limited to just this floor; similar scenes were unfolding on multiple floors of the hospital building.

The police officers who were securing the area downstairs also noticed this scene, their faces turning pale. The previous suicide case hadn't been resolved yet, and now another one had occurred. The shock they felt could be imagined.

However, when they rushed to the scene, they found nothing. No body, no person, or anything else. It was as if everything they had seen just now was an illusion.

Was it a collective hallucination?

Of course, that was impossible, and no one would believe such an explanation. But the fact remained that they didn't find anything, even if they didn't believe what they had seen was an illusion, what could they do?

Yang Haoran's action of jumping out of the window indeed caused some impact and confusion, but at this moment, he didn't have the time to care about that. He had already got into his car and began chasing after the Skin Ghost following his senses.

The reason why he didn't die from jumping off the ninth floor was because he had wrapped Yin spirit power around his body. At the moment of landing, he forcibly made his body float, thus avoiding any harm.

Of course, it was still quite terrifying. If it weren't for the urgency of the situation, he wouldn't have chosen to do so. In case he didn't handle it well, he would have been smashed to pieces.

The reason why he knew that Yin spirit power had this function was also because of Xu Meijing. When Xu Meijing was in the cave, she could even make her body float in the air.

Yang Haoran could also do this, but the premise was that he had to be willing to expend the limited Yin spirit power in his body.

It was already past lunchtime. Although the sun in this season wasn't scorching, it was still the time of day when the sun was strongest. The Skin Ghost chose to dash out of Tianhe Hospital at this time, causing significant damage to him.

Even if he chose to hide in dark corners along the way, he couldn't avoid being burned by the sunlight. But he still chose to do so. Yang Haoran didn't find it strange at all.

In Yang Haoran's view, the Skin Ghost was truly afraid. The reason why he didn't want to hide in Tianhe Hospital might be because he was worried that the previous scene would repeat itself. In case another powerful figure used some means to forcibly summon his soul, considering his current situation, he would be dead.

Therefore, he would rather choose to dash out of Tianhe Hospital at this time, even if he endured the burning of sunlight. Perhaps in his view, this was the only chance of survival.

Although these were just speculations in Yang Haoran's mind, he felt that there shouldn't be much difference between his speculations and the truth.

Following his senses, Yang Haoran sped along the highway, the Skin Ghost's chosen route wasn't within the city but outside.

For Yang Haoran, this was a good thing, but the Skin Ghost choosing this route naturally had its own reasons.

However, chasing after someone on the ground couldn't catch up with someone flying in the sky. Gradually, Yang Haoran found that his sense of the Skin Ghost was getting weaker, forcing him to step on the gas!
