Chapter 406: Another Ceramic Vase

To be honest, Yang Haoran was a bit surprised when Zhao Hong said those words to him in this situation.

It wasn't that he was surprised by Zhao Hong's bravery - spirit masters and the Yin Division have always been at odds, and if a spirit master's soul fell into the hands of an Underworld Envoy, their soul would surely be scattered. So Yang Haoran wasn't surprised that Zhao Hong would say such words without considering the consequences.

What surprised him was the content of Zhao Hong's words - that she was planning to make a move on him in the near future. This was news to Yang Haoran, so he was a bit taken aback.

Seeing that Zhao Hong didn't want to say more, Yang Haoran's smile remained unchanged.

"I am the Underworld Envoy. If I want to know something from you, it's not that you won't say it and I won't be able to know. Don't think that just because you're already dead, if you were still alive, I couldn't forcibly extract your soul and get the information I need," Yang Haoran said with a smile.

But his words didn't provoke any reaction from Zhao Hong, who just glared at him hatefully without saying a word.

Yang Haoran smiled without a reply, then directly activated his ghost eye.

As his eyes turned as black as ink, Yang Haoran saw flashes of Zhao Hong's past through the ghost eye, and in an instant, he gained a lot of information.

After a few breaths, Yang Haoran closed his eyes and then opened them again, his eyes returning to normal.

Looking at Zhao Hong's soul, Yang Haoran gave a faint smile and only said one sentence to her.

"You deserve to die."

Hearing this, Zhao Hong let out a crazy laugh.

Yang Haoran paid no attention to Zhao Hong's manic laughter, summoning a soul gathering bead and directly absorbing Zhao Hong's soul into it.

Just now, through the ghost eye, the scenes of Zhao Hong's past had flashed through his mind like a fast-forwarded movie. Through this information, he knew what kind of person Zhao Hong was.

Zhao Hong had a relatively good reputation among her friends and colleagues, but this was just a facade she had put on. Secretly, she had killed many people, including quite a few of her own relatives and friends.

Including the spirit master she had previously slain, who had once been one of her friends. Under her deception, that spirit master had almost lost their life to her years ago, though they managed to escape, but at the cost of their Guardian Spirit.

The reason Zhao Hong chose to work at the crematorium and had done so for many years was naturally to obtain more souls.

In addition to books and manuscripts, there are also some things that Yang Haoran and Bai Xue couldn't figure out, among which there was an item that piqued Yang Haoran's interest.

It was a bottle, a milk-white ceramic bottle the size of an ordinary beverage bottle.

The reason this ceramic bottle could arouse Yang Haoran's interest was that he had an identical ceramic bottle, and the one he had in his hand was the one he had obtained from Deng Feng's house before, but until now he still hadn't figured out what the ceramic bottle was used for.

What he didn't expect was that before he could figure out what the ceramic bottle was used for, he actually found an identical ceramic bottle at Zhao Hong's place.

Yang Haoran didn't ask Zhao Hong what the ceramic bottle was used for, because he recalled the information he had obtained from Zhao Hong's soul before, and knew that Zhao Hong had also accidentally obtained this ceramic bottle, and later tried to figure out what it was, but ultimately found nothing.

In other words, Zhao Hong didn't know what this ceramic bottle was either, she just felt it was a bit strange, so she kept it.

In addition to this ceramic bottle, the other few items that Yang Haoran didn't recognize, but through recalling the information he had obtained from Zhao Hong's soul, he was able to figure out the function and value of these things.

Among Zhao Hong's collection, the vast majority of the items are related to spirit masters, and the few items not related to spirit masters are just some books, which greatly disappointed Bai Xue, as she had no interest in these things.

However, when Bai Xue found a box and opened it, a look of delight appeared on her face.

After opening the box, a strong demonic qi was immediately released, and inside the box was a demonic pill, the reason why the demonic qi was not sensed before was that there was a seal on the box, so the demonic qi was not released at all, but after Bai Xue broke the seal and opened the box, the demonic pill immediately released a strong demonic qi.

Finding a demonic pill excited Bai Xue like a child, because the demonic pill was of immense value to her, as long as she could absorb and refine it, her strength would soar, the effect of which could not be compared to ordinary heavenly materials and earthly treasures, after all, a demonic pill represents the essence of a demon's lifetime of cultivation, and its value can be imagined.

According to the current treatment given to her by the Spirit Police, even if she worked for the Spirit Police for another ten years, the heavenly materials and earthly treasures she would get could not match this one demonic pill, so how could she not be pleased.

Of course, the heavenly materials and earthly treasures given to her by the Spirit Police are just ordinary goods, if they were high-end goods, then it would be a different story.

Yang Haoran did not compete with Bai Xue for this demonic pill, after all, he is not a demon, and the demonic pill has limited use in his hands, other than allowing him to recognize demonic script and hex, he has not found any other use for it yet, and he already has one demonic pill, getting another one would be a waste.

But Bai Xue is different, Bai Xue is a great demon, and the demonic pill can give full play to its value in her hands, so Yang Haoran naturally would not compete with her.

Moreover, this trip Bai Xue has really helped Yang Haoran a lot, she risked her life to help him, so he must give her a reward, and just now he was worrying about what to use to thank Bai Xue, the appearance of the demonic pill solved this problem.[Heartfelt thankyou for the support! SlaySaga]
