The familiar little German tune instantly stirred up painful memories among the dark, ghostly figures.
Recalling the gesture Su Fan had made earlier, the black mist that had scattered everywhere began to gather once more.
They abandoned the three people who were limping and completely defenseless.
Their eyes opened wide, glowing with a blood-red light, and their mouths, filled with sharp fangs, turned to lunge at Su Fan instead!
This taunting skill was incredibly effective.
Su Fan was quite pleasantly surprised.
After turning into evil spirits, the goodness and conscience within their souls gradually erode, leaving only killing intent and resentment.
As embodiments of negative emotions, it’s hard for them to stay rational.
The moment they heard someone daring to provoke them so openly, they immediately got enraged.
Su Fan twisted his body to dodge a claw swinging at him from his blind spot, grabbed it, broke it, and then punched the owner of the claw to death with one blow.
Ever since he gained his supernatural powers, it had been a long time since he last engaged in close-quarters combat.
This was a perfect chance to stretch his limbs a bit.
Su Fan casually grabbed two evil spirits by their heads and crushed them.
Then, like a tiger charging into a flock of sheep, he plunged straight into the black mist.
Whether it was solid furniture and walls or the semi-corporeal evil spirits, they all made no difference to Su Fan, who had turned into a human killing machine.
In just one breath, he had already taken down five of them.
Dorris and the other evil spirits were utterly shocked by his terrifying performance and immediately realized that the methods they used to deal with ordinary humans were completely useless against Su Fan.
With a unified roar, the entire room began to shake!
Most of the walls on the first floor of the villa were destroyed, with smoke, dust, and debris flying everywhere.
In the living room, the three people who had just found Debbie didn’t even get to say two words before they were all knocked over by the shockwaves from the fight, crashing to the ground!
Bill and the others could clearly see a cold, glittering light radiating from within the dust.
Every sharp object inside the house began to float.
Metal knives and forks, kitchen utensils, ice picks, and shattered glass all flew toward one direction.
At the same time, a figure rushed out of the dust, moving straight toward the gathered eerie black mist and Dorris, who was floating in the air, without dodging or retreating.
In the eyes of the many evil spirits and the other four people, time seemed to slow down.
The young man’s forehead collided head-on with a sharp kitchen knife!
The pointed tip of the knife couldn’t pierce his skin at all; instead, as if hitting a steel barrier, it got crushed into a wavy shape.
And it wasn’t just his forehead.
The same thing happened everywhere else.
Su Fan’s body seemed to be completely cast from solid steel—indestructible.
Dorris and the other evil spirits couldn’t believe their eyes. Thoughts of retreat immediately arose in their minds, but it was already too late.
Su Fan was already right in front of them!
“Pop, pop, pop!”
The sounds of evil spirits being blown apart echoed one after another.
Dorris looked around and realized with shock that, aside from herself, there were no other evil spirits left in this space.
With the weakening of the evil spirits’ power, the light from outside the floor-to-ceiling windows finally managed to shine into the villa.
The four people could finally see clearly the figure standing in the middle of the room.
He looked just as calm as before, his breathing steady, and not even the corners of his clothes were ruffled.
It was as if what he was doing now was nothing more than a casual stroll in the park.
By this point, Dorris—or rather, Marcus—finally realized that her defeat was certain.
But then, suddenly, a fierce hatred blazed in her eyes.
“Why do they get to be so lucky, having someone to fight for justice for them and save their lives?”
“Why do we have to die in utter despair? Why! Are we the ones who deserve this?”
Su Fan didn’t say much in response. He simply obliterated her without hesitation.
It wasn’t their fault that they had encountered a twisted doctor.
But grudges have clear targets. After becoming evil spirits, instead of seeking revenge against the one who wronged them, they used the excuse of blasphemy against God to persecute others.
Today, being destroyed by him was simply their fate.
[You have killed many evil spirits with your bare hands and have gained substantial control over your enhanced body. Recovery speed +30%.]
[In the heat of battle, you have gradually integrated various martial arts techniques, raising your level of mastery.]
As the notification sounded in his mind, Su Fan once again assessed his physical condition.
The speed at which spiritual energy was generated within his dantian was slightly faster than before, and this spiritual energy, in turn, continuously nourished and strengthened his muscles, bones, and meridians.
The efficiency had visibly improved.
“So this really has turned into rehabilitation training.”
Still, being able to restore his physical state by killing evil spirits was an unexpected bonus.
Just then, Debbie and her sister Sarah, each supporting one person, made their way toward Su Fan.
Looking at Su Fan, who had appeared out of nowhere and dealt with the evil spirits with lightning-fast efficiency, Debbie’s eyes showed a hint of curiosity.
“This is the exorcist Luke brought in to cleanse the spirits…”
Bill said, holding his chest, as he introduced Su Fan to Debbie.
“If it weren’t for him, we would have already died at the hands of those ghosts.”
“At least everyone else is safe.”
Sarah shuddered at the memory of the ghostly figures earlier, but in contrast, the relief of having survived was even stronger.
“No… Lisa was killed by these ghosts. She’s never coming back.”
At that, Debbie’s expression turned sorrowful.
The mystery of why their friend had hanged herself without any warning was finally solved—all of them who had done the group séance had encountered such terrifying things, so it was easy to imagine what Lisa, who had performed a ritual alone, must have seen.
“To solve the mystery of one friend’s death, you dragged your other friends into danger with you. Do you think that was right?”
Su Fan’s sudden question made Debbie feel embarrassed.
“Luke, as your boyfriend, must have tried to talk you out of it more than once, but you still went ahead with your own plan.”
“You bear most of the responsibility for what happened tonight.”
“…You’re right… I was wrong…”
After a long silence, Debbie finally admitted her mistake.
“But the cause of Lisa’s death really was unusual.”
“As a medium, for her to die during a divination ritual… I just can’t accept that.”
A medium?
Su Fan frowned at that.
Even a medium with no combat ability knows the basics of avoiding danger and seeking good fortune.
Dying during a planchette writing session was indeed far too strange.
Debbie might be foolish, but at least she wasn’t wrong about that.
“Lisa was a medium? I never knew that…”
Bill was stunned.
“She only told me.”
“A while before we moved here, she became really quiet and didn’t like being around other people. Even when I invited her to hang out, she’d refuse.”
“Until the day she died, I had no idea what was going on.”
“When I was flipping through her notebook, I saw this sentence.”
Debbie paused for a moment.
“Evil will summon more evil. The gates of hell have already been opened.”
