Horror Camgirl - Ch. 47: Ghost Witch Sect
Haha, there are always people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens. Brother in front, do you now realize how many extraordinary talents there are in the world? An audience member heckled.
Sigh, I thought I was a martial arts genius, but I didn’t expect a young lady to be even more formidable than me. I can't go on living like this.
After saying that, he tipped me ten crowns.
Teng Lan looked at me in disbelief, seemingly not expecting that I was also a martial arts master.
Tang Mingli’s face was full of astonishment: “Jun Yao, you… broke through to Inner Strength?”
I didn’t know how to explain and could only agree casually.
He was deeply shocked; just a month ago, I was still an ordinary person who didn’t know martial arts, and now I had broken through to Inner Strength? In the martial arts world, many people spend their entire lives unable to achieve Inner Strength and become masters.
Cloud Fairy sneered: “This kid looks good, but he hasn’t seen much of the world. Our cultivators' Spiritual Power is far purer than their Inner Strength. Inner Strength is just a simplified version of Spiritual Power.”
I quickly changed the subject and shone my flashlight on the person's face; he was breathing out more than he was taking in, clearly nearing death.
He was a young man. He looked very ordinary, but his eyes were filled with deep resentment, glaring fiercely at us, saying, “Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go!”
After saying that, he suddenly bit down hard, likely breaking the poison hidden in his teeth, and died by suicide.
Teng Lan swallowed hard and whispered, “Is he dead?”
I nodded. His face turned a bit pale. Although the circle he belonged to was ruthless, even among enemies, they fought with power and cunning. His father had done many terrible things to ruin others' lives.
But it was the first time a living person had died right in front of him.
I wanted to check the corpse, but Tang Mingli stopped me, then threw a rat onto him. The rat crawled a few steps and then, with all four legs kicking, died from the poison.
I was startled; this person was highly poisonous. After committing suicide, he had poisoned his own body. Anyone who touched his corpse would also succumb to poison.
Tang Mingli’s face darkened as he covered the body with a sheet. After a night of commotion, the first light of dawn finally appeared. I placed the Evil God Statue in an open space outside, and when the first rays of sunlight enveloped it, I picked up the hammer, infused it with Spiritual Energy, and smashed down hard.
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed. The Evil God Statue let out a mournful scream, and then a thin crack opened up on its top, spreading rapidly like a spider web to every corner.
With a crash.
This extremely hard Jade Evil God Statue shattered.
From that Evil God Statue, a wisp of black aura flew out and entered my nostrils.
I was astonished. The Karma Sore on my face had already healed, and I could still absorb the vengeful energy?
I roughly checked inside my body and found my Spiritual Energy had increased a bit. Although it was just a little, it made me ecstatic.
This meant I could become stronger by absorbing vengeful energy.
“Dear audience friends,” I spoke into my phone, “thank you for spending a long night with me. As you can see, the Evil God Statue has been destroyed, and this residential complex has finally returned to peace.”
I turned off the live stream and checked the online view count, which surprisingly reached two hundred seventy thousand. Many had truly watched all night.
At that moment, police sirens blared, and a large group of officers filed in. Special Department Captain Jin and Xiao Lin quickly followed.
Captain Jin looked regretfully at the Evil God Statue. He had stayed up all night watching the live stream, intending to take the statue back for thorough study. However, orders prohibited interrupting my live stream, so he had to let it go.
“Captain Jin, you’ve seen a lot. Have you encountered this kind of Evil God?” I asked.
Captain Jin’s expression turned serious as he had the officers in biohazard suits carefully examine the corpse. “This is a member of the Ghost Witch Sect.”
“Ghost Witch Sect?”
Captain Jin said: “This is a very primitive sect from Myanmar, said to have existed since the Pyunguo period. The Myanmar government has made great efforts to eradicate them, but they hide in the mountains and their sect location has never been found. I never expected they would have the audacity to cause trouble in Shan City!”
A cold glint flashed in his eyes: “They truly don’t take our Special Department seriously.”
“Captain, we’ve identified this person,” Xiao Lin said, holding a tablet. “His name is Li Yi, who grew up in this residential complex. Five years ago, his family had a serious falling out with the Lu Laosan family over a trivial matter. A few days later, his father died in a car accident. He claimed he saw Lu Laosan driving the car that hit him, but none of the neighbors were willing to testify. Later, he went south to work and went missing.”
I understood. He harbored resentment against those neighbors, went south to Myanmar, and by chance joined the Ghost Witch Sect. He learned some skills, brought back the Evil God Statue, and sought revenge on those people.
Captain Jin looked at me with a complicated expression: “This Ghost Witch Sect is not easy to deal with. You killed their people in front of so many witnesses and destroyed their statue. They will likely come back for revenge. Since you didn’t show your face, that’s one thing, but these two are likely…”
Tang Mingli scoffed: “Am I supposed to be afraid of a mere Ghost Witch Sect?”
However, Teng Lan looked worried. He knew well that witchcraft ran rampant in Myanmar; if they cast a spell on him, he wouldn’t be able to defend himself.
It seemed I could only seek help from my grandfather’s family.
Concerned for Tang Mingli and Teng Lan’s safety, I quickly asked, “Captain Jin, can your Special Department send someone to protect them?”
Captain Jin smiled and reassured me: “There’s no need to worry too much about the Ghost Witch Sect. After all, this is China, not Myanmar. They don’t dare to openly commit crimes on our territory. This Li Yi is probably just someone who sneaked out. We will keep a close watch. For every member of the Ghost Witch Sect that comes, we will eliminate one. If two come, we will take down a pair.”
I expressed my gratitude, and Captain Jin, initially wanting to do me a favor, now wore a beaming smile since his objective was accomplished.
Tang Mingli drove me home and quietly informed me that Teng Lan's mother came from the prominent Hu family in Rong City. With the Hu family’s protection, a small sect from a tiny country wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.
In the end, it seemed the one in most danger was still me.
I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead; luckily, I hadn’t shown my face. My identity was strictly confidential as ordered from above, and after this incident, someone would likely come to talk to Teng Lan to keep the secret.
Upon returning home, I immediately opened the communication channel and cheerfully asked, “Fairy, you previously said you would reward me with something good. What is it?”
Cloud Fairy replied with a smile: “Don’t worry, it won’t be less for you, little girl. I’ve already sent you the reward; be sure to check it out.”
Before she finished speaking, I heard someone outside calling: “Yuan Junyao, you have a package.”
I quickly opened the door, but there was no one outside. On the ground lay a box the size of a fist, tightly wrapped.
Excitedly, I picked it up and opened it. Inside was a beautifully crafted jade box.
Could it be a pill?
I opened the box to find a stone the size of a thumb. I curiously asked, “Fairy, what is this?”
“This is a Jade Slip,” Cloud Fairy explained. “You put it on your forehead and then infuse it with a wisp of Spiritual Energy.”
I closed my eyes, pressed the Jade Slip against my forehead, and injected my Spiritual Energy into it. Suddenly, a surge of ocean-like power rushed into my mind, causing me to scream in pain and faint.
Cloud Fairy exclaimed, “Oh no, I forgot to tell her that since it’s her first time reading the Jade Slip, if her mental strength isn’t sufficient, she could become an idiot. This could be bad; I hope I haven’t harmed her!”
I dreamt that I lay in a pitch-black world surrounded by dense golden characters.
Could it be a martial arts manual?
I excitedly and carefully read those characters, but the more I looked, the more I felt something was off.
Wait, this doesn’t seem to be a technique, nor an elixir formula, but… a cookbook?
I suddenly woke up from the dream, bewildered.
“Hey, little girl, are you alright?” Cloud Fairy’s anxious voice came through. I rubbed my still-paining temples and replied, “Fairy, I’m fine.”
