Running A Cemetery in North America-Chapter 437 - 308: What a Fine Green Hat

"Have you encountered anything today that made you feel uncomfortable?" Sun Yan asked aloud.

Since he was currently staying at the Qin Family Hall, if the Qin Family people encountered any problems, he naturally could not turn a blind eye.

Qin Yue’s face showed a dark aura at his forehead, which was clearly a sign of being affected by an evil spirit.

To think that he, a proper Immortal trained in exorcising filth, was here yet still there were evil beings daring to offend, it truly was disrespectful to him.

"No, I haven’t encountered anything uncomfortable. Everything I eat tastes great," Qin Yue replied dismissively.

Unlike Qin Sanye, his three sons had grown up in America since childhood.

Although they still looked Chinese, their hearts embraced the freedom of America without much difference.

Therefore, he esteemed science and was utterly skeptical towards a so-called exorcist like Sun Yan.

In Qin Yue’s view, Sun Yan was just a swindler trying to con his family out of money under the guise of flashy tricks.

He had seen many such schemes.

The Qin Family Hall in New York Chinatown was akin to wealthy landowners; every day, numerous opportunists sought to make money off the Qin Family without working for it.

However, Qin Sanye believed in these ghost and deity tales, spending millions just on incense money alone, which made the three sons of the Qin Family very dissatisfied.

Now, in Qin Yue’s eyes, this charlatan Sun Yan was even living in the Qin Family Hall, dining with them.

This feeling made Qin Yue extremely displeased; if not for Qin Sanye’s courteous treatment of Sun Yan, he wouldn’t have shown him a good face at all.

"Speak nicely to Mr. Jackson. When he asks you something, answer him honestly; don’t act like a thug."

Upon hearing Qin Yue’s impolite response, Qin Sanye slapped the table, instantly making the Qin Family people at the dining table serious.

Qin Yue’s expression shifted slightly, and he hurriedly smiled apologetically, "Mr. Jackson, I really haven’t encountered anything strange; you’re overthinking."

"Ah!!!"

Just then, a sharp scream suddenly echoed inside the Qin Family Hall, as if something terrifying had happened.

Everyone quickly looked toward the staircase to the second floor and saw a Qin Family maid rushing down in panic. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Failing to step steadily, she tumbled down the stairs like a rolling wheel.

Upon hitting the first-floor ground, the maid showed no sign of pain, but rather crawled toward the dining room in terror, trembling all over, and said:

"Master, Master, the second young lady... there’s a ghost in her room."

The atmosphere in the dining room instantly turned icy, and a chill arose in the hearts of many.

A ghost? What kind of nonsense is this?

Qin Feng’s death was strange, and subsequent exorcists brought in by Qin Sanye to investigate the cause all met mysterious deaths.

This made the already peculiar murder case even more eerie, and now the maid claimed a ghost had appeared in the Qin Family Hall.

Even the atheists couldn’t help but feel a shiver run through their hearts.

Qin Sanye quickly looked at Sun Yan, who was still calmly eating: "Mr. Jackson, what do you think of this..."

Since inheriting the graveyard, Sun Yan had experienced countless events, big and small.

Mirror Demon Spirit, Yin God in the building, Soul Ring on the car, an old lady corrupted by the power of the Demon God, a Black Magic Master, Blood Race, Werewolf, the real Demon God Andros.

South Seas Evil God, Zombies, Sakura Evil God, North American Evil God...

These experiences had long steeled his heart, colder than the fish-gutting knives at the supermarket.

Ghosts? They were just commonplace to him six months ago.

No need to fear.

What truly discontented Sun Yan was the fact that, despite his presence in the Qin Family Hall, ghosts dared to enter and cause harm.

This was a show of disregard towards Sun Yan and a provocation to him, an Immortal of the End of Dharma Era.

Exorcising filth to become Immortal doesn’t count as Immortal? Tell me, am I not an Immortal?

The audacity of a ghost to act maliciously under his nose was intolerable.

Placing a piece of beef into his mouth, Sun Yan nodded, "No need to panic, I’ll go take a look. You all continue eating."

"Second Brother, you guide Mr. Jackson."

Hearing Sun Yan’s response, Qin Sanye immediately felt a sense of relief.

After witnessing Sun Yan’s abilities that day, he placed immense trust in this young exorcist.

Those methods were no mere blinding techniques, but true divine powers.

With Sun Yan in residence, the Qin family was sure to be safe; no matter who was plotting against them in the dark, they could avert danger.

"Alright."

Qin Yue immediately rose, distractedly heading toward the stairs.

The entire Qin Family was aware that the unlearned Qin Yue doted most on his wife, Li Furong.

Whenever Li Furong felt the slightest discomfort, Qin Yue wished nothing more than to rush her to the local hospital for an examination.

Now, hearing there was a ghost in his and Li Furong’s room, how could Qin Yue sit still, his only thought being to get there as soon as possible to see what was really happening.

Although Sun Yan had been staying at the Qin Family Hall for several days, Li Furong was a female member of the Qin family, so naturally, he couldn’t know where her and Qin Yue’s room was located.

Following Qin Yue around the Qin Family Hall, Sun Yan soon arrived outside a double-door room with Qin Yue.

As Qin Yue reached out to push open the door, they both heard a seductive sound coming from inside, sparking imagination in their minds.

Sun Yan looked at the pale-faced Qin Yue with meaningful eyes.

Could it be that this second young master of the Qin family has been cuckolded by a woman?

"Li Furong, what are you doing!"

Qin Yue’s face turned crimson as he suddenly kicked the door open.

There, his delicate wife was seen lying on the bed in a silk nightgown, eyes tightly shut, emitting steam all over her body.

Her skin was as red as a cooked shrimp, twisting and turning continuously.

The seductive sound Sun Yan and Qin Yue heard just now was coming from this woman’s mouth.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room and his wife was just asleep, not putting a hat on him,

Qin Yue relaxed his face and let out a sigh of relief.

However, he noticed Sun Yan standing beside him with a serious face, as if he had seen something non-existent.

This immediately raised Qin Yue’s alarm: "Mr. Jackson, what’s going on?"

"Just as I thought, your house has attracted some evil spirit. It’s useless to say more; see for yourself."

Sun Yan formed a spirit communication technique with his hands and tapped Qin Yue’s forehead.

As a result, Qin Yue temporarily acquired the ability of the Yin-Yang Eye for a short period.

Looking again at Li Furong lying on the bed, his face instantly changed, shocked and angry, unable to speak disbelief for a moment.

On the originally empty bed where only Li Furong lay, there appeared a creature out of thin air, oozing dark green slime all over, humanlike but faceless and featureless.

It was lying on Li Furong, entwined as if in joyous consonance, fully displaying a state of entwining, swallowing, and merging joy.

Qin Yue trembled with anger, about to step forward.

Whatever it was, sleeping with his wife meant he would kill it even if it cost him his life.

At this moment, Sun Yan’s one hand rested on Qin Yue’s shoulder, firmly pressing him in place, unable to move.

"Do not act rashly. This is no ordinary ghost; it’s a Vishuddha." Sun Yan said solemnly.

"Vishuddha?" Qin Yue looked puzzled, having never heard of such a thing.

"It’s one of the ghost gods similar to Rakshasa, also known as Bisha Zhe, Bishazhe, Bishazhe; it’s a flesh-eating ghost, an essence-devouring ghost," Sun Yan slowly explained, also encountering this level of evil ghost for the first time.

In Buddhism, all hungry ghosts originate from it. Females are called ’Bishazhizhi’, males are ’Vishuddha’.

They are ranked alongside Asura, Rakshasa, and Yaksha.

Vishuddha feeds on human flesh and blood, specifically consuming corpses, and sometimes infiltrates women’s bodies.

They wander the streets and near human residences at dusk, and anyone who accidentally collides with them will undoubtedly die within nine months.

The flesh-eating Vishuddha is just a low-level existence, posing no danger to an exorcist.

But a Vishuddha that evolves into a Devouring Essence Ghost King is quite different.

Devouring Essence Ghost King evolves from a flesh-eating one, specifically roaming the human world, sucking human essence.

When people indulge in sinful desires and unrestrained impulses, the Devouring Essence Ghost King appears, siphoning your essence at the moment of your forbidden pleasure.

To a Devouring Essence Ghost King, humans are an endless source of food; as long as someone desires indulgence, the Ghost King will be drawn.

And when someone decides to abstain from carnal desires, choosing restraint from then on, the Devouring Essence Ghost King will respond accordingly.

For instance, a frequent indulgent will become a fixed template for the Ghost King, a steady canteen.

But if one day you stop engaging, the Ghost King loses its meal ticket.

In such a scenario, it won’t let that happen naturally.

So, it will try everything to prevent you, making you give up your restraint plans.

The Devouring Essence Ghost King can possess and haunt, entering dreams, enticing people in various ways, leading them to lose essence.

This also explains why some people always have erotic dreams.

Compared to the low-level evil ghost like Vishuddha, the Devouring Essence Ghost King is undoubtedly more dangerous.

The monster Sun Yan saw before him was a genuine Devouring Essence Ghost King.

"I didn’t expect to encounter such a ghost king in the Qin Family Hall, as it doesn’t make sense." Sun Yan frowned.

He had been staying here for a few days but hadn’t noticed anything unusual about the Qin Family Hall, and it’s certainly not a pleasure house.

How could it attract the appearance of the Devouring Essence Ghost King? There’s only one reason behind this.

Li Furong might be the reincarnation of a courtesan from nine generations or perhaps brought back something unclean, thus attracting the Devouring Essence Ghost King.

"Mr. Jackson, quickly, kill this monster. No matter how much you want, I’ll have my father pay you!"

Qin Yue trembled with anger, unable to bear this ugly creature making glug-glug sounds on Li Furong anymore.

It was downright a slap to his face.
