Yang Haoran's reminder made Deputy Captain Zhou's expression even colder, as it seemed the newcomer, judging by Yang Haoran's tone, was likely an enemy rather than a friend.

"No matter who the other party is, I request Yang, the divine envoy, to buy me some time. I want to personally deal with this grandson in front of me!"

A faint smile appeared on Yang Haoran's face, but he nodded in agreement.

"The newcomer is formidable; you better act quickly."

"Thank you!"

Before Deputy Captain Zhou could make a move, the malevolent spirit on the opposite side struck first!

The malevolent spirit vigorously waved both hands, causing the black water pool below to boil. The black water condensed into pitch-black water arrows, continuously shooting upwards.

With this attack, both Yang Haoran and Deputy Captain Zhou were covered!

Though Deputy Captain Zhou didn't seize the initiative, he was not unprepared. Faced with the situation, he emitted a cold snort and, with a step into the void, not only shattered the water arrows with his foot but also left a deep footprint on the surface of the black water pool.

A large amount of black water gushed out of the pool, spreading towards the surroundings, wetting the ground, staining the weeds and trees black. The area looked as if it had suddenly been drenched in a substantial amount of viscous black ink.

Yang Haoran intended to make a move, but seeing Deputy Captain Zhou effortlessly break the malevolent spirit's move, he naturally wouldn't waste his Yin spirit power.

"Yang, the divine envoy, I'll handle this!"

Yang Haoran nodded in response and swiftly returned to the ground.

In that instant, as he left the area above the black water pool, three Spirit Police members also took action, all targeting the malevolent spirit man.

Like Deputy Captain Zhou, these three Spirit Police were exorcists. They each drew their strongest magical weapons and, taking advantage of the moment when the malevolent spirit man's tactics were broken, seized the opportunity to launch simultaneous attacks.

However, their limited strength rendered their attacks ineffective, despite the use of their most potent tools. The immense power difference made their assaults seem feeble, like a baby's punch against an adult, barely causing any impact.

Nevertheless, although the attacks didn't inflict significant harm on the malevolent spirit man, they restrained him for a few breaths of time. In those moments, Deputy Captain Zhou did something different from the three Spirit Police.

Deputy Captain Zhou formed hand seals, murmured incantations, and then, with a breath, a Copper Coin Sword, only as long as a finger, emerged from his mouth.

After being expelled, the Copper Coin Sword instantly grew into a short sword about a meter in length. The sword, both the blade and hilt, was constructed entirely of copper coins, connected by a red string. Although it appeared ordinary, the Copper Coin Sword emitted a powerful fluctuation of energy.

Yang Haoran had seen this Copper Coin Sword before. During his first encounter with Deputy Captain Zhou, they had exchanged blows, and the magical weapon that Deputy Captain Zhou had conjured was this Copper Coin Sword.

However, back then, the Copper Coin Sword manipulated by Deputy Captain Zhou was formed from the power within his body, not a genuine magical weapon. The one he spat out now was a true magical weapon.

Magical weapons were objects that enhanced the attacker's or defender's capabilities. Besides, some possessed special abilities.

Typically, only exorcists would use magical weapons, as many of their techniques required such tools to enhance their power. For instance, Yin Division relied on Yin spirit power, and after opening the soul, they had soul weapons. Talisman masters used talismans, their most potent means. Consequently, they rarely resorted to magical weapons when confronting enemies.

After taking out the Copper Coin Sword, just as the malevolent spirit man had sent the Spirit Police's magical weapons flying, he sensed danger before he could strike them down!

In his urgency, the malevolent spirit man didn't even glance at the source of the danger but swiftly moved to the side!

Although the malevolent spirit man's reaction was swift, Deputy Captain Zhou's Copper Coin Sword was swifter. A flash of golden light, and one of the malevolent spirit man's arms was severed.

The moment the arm detached from the malevolent spirit man's body, it disintegrated into the wind, leaving no bones behind.

Losing an arm wouldn't hinder the malevolent spirit man's actions, as his real body was a soul body. At present, he merely possessed his own corpse. However, it seemed that the malevolent spirit man had a particular fondness for his physical body. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to possess his own flesh. Now, with his physical body severed by an arm, his complexion immediately turned unpleasant!

Deputy Captain Zhou's sword not only severed the malevolent spirit man's arm but also inflicted damage on the malevolent spirit's soul body. This escalated the hatred of the malevolent spirit man towards Deputy Captain Zhou to its peak.

"You've ruined my physical body! Harmed my soul body! Today, you won't leave here alive!"

Deputy Captain Zhou paid no attention to the threats of the malevolent spirit man. Instead, he responded with another flash of golden light as he redirected the Copper Coin Sword towards the malevolent spirit man.

At this moment, Yang Haoran, preoccupied with the ongoing battle between Deputy Captain Zhou and the malevolent spirit, no longer wore a smile on his face. His gaze shifted in a specific direction.

Beside him, a mass of Yin Qi was violently churning. Within this Yin Qi was his soul weapon, Waning Moon!

After a brief moment, Yang Haoran squinted his eyes.

"Here it comes!"

As the voice in his mind echoed, a dense Yin Qi appeared within his line of sight.

Disregarding the trees, this Yin Qi resembled a dark cloud, swiftly approaching the location of the black water pool.

Prepared for this, Yang Haoran, as the Burial Master of Yin Division, knew that the newcomer was a powerful ghost. In such a case, there was no room for negotiation; he had to act.

Under his control, Waning Moon emitted a humming sound and transformed into a black light, slashing towards the approaching Yin Qi!

Boom!

The incoming Yin Qi was directly cleaved in half by the terrifying power of Waning Moon, causing the large trees behind it to collapse.

Through his sensitivity to Yin Qi, Yang Haoran knew this ghost was formidable. Hence, he chose to use his soul weapon, Waning Moon, without holding back.

Although it was just one move, the impact was considerable. Even Deputy Captain Zhou and the others, who were engaged in battle with the malevolent spirit, were startled by the disturbance caused by Yang Haoran.

A sonic boom followed as Waning Moon returned to Yang Haoran's side, hovering in mid-air and rotating slowly.

The Yin Qi, split in two by Waning Moon, reassembled at this moment.

"Uncle, you really went all out; are you trying to kill me?"

A frenzied voice emanated from the Yin Qi. Beyond the madness, there was a hint of bloodthirstiness.

Yang Haoran's gaze sharpened. He found this voice extremely familiar, a voice he would never forget in his lifetime. Among all the people he knew, only one person had such a crazy and bloodthirsty way of speaking!

As expected, as the Yin Qi dispersed, a figure in blood-red attire emerged. A young girl, clad in bloody garments, floated in the air. Thick Yin Qi enveloped her soul body, and droplets of blood from her attire transformed into Yin Qi, dissipating.

This person was none other than Zhong Siyu, whom he hadn't seen since their parting at the ghost building!

Although Yang Haoran could estimate the strength of a ghost based on the intensity of its Yin Qi, he couldn't confirm the identity of the entity. Whether it was a ghost or a human, he couldn't ascertain.

So, when he sensed a powerful ghost rapidly approaching their location, he only knew there was a formidable presence but couldn't identify who it was.

As the Yin Qi dispersed, revealing Zhong Siyu, Yang Haoran was genuinely surprised. He hadn't expected to encounter this extremely eccentric girl again in this place!

The serious expression on Yang Haoran's face vanished, replaced by a gentle smile.

Despite the amiable smile, his vigilance in his heart not only didn't decrease but increased significantly. To Yang Haoran, Zhong Siyu was an extremely dangerous presence—a true maniac. One could never predict what she might do. Even if Zhong Siyu fell under his enchantment technique, he remained cautious of this person.
