Raphael was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood the significance of Su Fan’s action. His face became awkward.
Earlier, he had mistaken Su Fan for a lazy young man using exorcism as a front to scam people, someone who didn’t take his work seriously. He wanted to show off his skills to make Su Fan back down.
But now it seemed that not only was Su Fan not a fraud, he actually had his own methods for dealing with ghosts.
“Thank you for your help just now. I apologize for my earlier behavior, which stemmed from a lack of good judgment.”
Raphael had no intention of stubbornly refusing to admit his mistake. Eurowna had only been driven outside; the fundamental problem wasn’t solved yet. Clinging to the idea of “saving face” at a time like this would just be stupid, right?
“Eurowna is a bit more powerful than I expected. I can’t defeat her on my own. I need your help, Mr. Su.”
A spirit can touch a person, but a person can’t physically harm a spirit. That’s why you need the power of faith and the aid of various objects.
But this young man across from him had shattered that basic logic. If he could get his assistance, the success rate of tonight’s exorcism would rise to at least over seventy percent!
While Raphael was speaking, Anna, who had been dazed from hitting the wall, finally got up. Seeing her two children safe and sound, she immediately ran over, crying tears of joy as she hugged them.
Christopher and April’s reactions, however, were different from their mother’s. The boy had figured out in an instant what had just happened. He looked at Raphael with a mixture of disbelief and simmering anger. April, on the other hand, looked at Su Fan with pure curiosity. Having been closest, she had clearly seen everything.
“Cooperation isn’t necessary.”
Su Fan shook his head.
“Is it because you feel my apology just now lacked sincerity?” Raphael asked, puzzled.
Among everyone present, Anna was the most panicked. Earlier, she had acted on her own, “annoying” Su Fan to the point where he refused to help. Then, during the subsequent interactions, she had only spoken to Raphael, neglecting Su Fan entirely.
If anyone had offended Su Fan the most, it was definitely Anna. Now that her children’s lives and her own depended entirely on Su Fan, she finally realized how foolish her actions had been.
“Mr. Su, I was wrong to look for another exorcist behind your back. I’m begging you, please help my two children.”
“What I mean is, I alone am enough to deal with Eurowna. You just focus on keeping an eye on those three.”
Su Fan couldn’t be bothered to watch Anna cry. She herself was a real piece of work, but the two children were decent. Besides, Su Fan was a businessman with a strong sense of contract. Since he had agreed to solve the Warrens’ problem, he would definitely get it done.
“No problem! No problem at all!!”
Hearing Su Fan say this, Raphael breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to say something else, a fierce wind suddenly howled outside!
In an instant, every window in the house flew open. The curtains were whipped up by the wind, writhing and twisting like a nest of colorful snakes. The howling wind, combined with the white ghostly figures flashing continuously outside, was eerie and terrifying.
Seeing this, the witch doctor Raphael’s face turned pale. Eurowna outside was summoning wind and rain, trying to destroy the line of fire tree seeds at the door!
“Fire tree seeds mixed with paint will keep them from being washed away by water or blown away by wind.”
Compared to the panic of the others present, Su Fan remained calm.
Hearing this, Raphael went to get the fire tree seeds, while Anna immediately fetched some idle paint from the house.
“Show some real skill and keep them safe. I’ll be right back.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Fan stepped forward and, in the blink of an eye, was standing outside.
The heavy rain had stopped sometime ago, leaving the ground covered in small puddles.
The faint sound of a woman crying lingered in the air, enough to give anyone goosebumps.
Su Fan’s eyes could see through to the netherworld, perceiving what ordinary people couldn’t. At that moment, a tall woman in white clothes was trying to step inside the house. The fire tree seeds at the doorway were slowly scattering under the force of the wind and the woman’s attempts to push her way in.
He took another step, and his form was in front of Eurowna in an instant.
Su Fan’s incredible speed was so fast that even Eurowna couldn’t react. The kick from before had already made her realize how terrifying the young man before her was. She immediately tried to put some distance between them.
But it was too late.
Su Fan grabbed her shoulder and applied pressure, intending to crush half her body. Her form, which had seemed just like a normal person’s, suddenly contorted, trying to slip free from Su Fan’s grasp.
From the surrounding puddles, ghostly hands shot out one after another! Pale-skinned, with pitch-black fingernails, they grabbed hold of Su Fan’s body, pulling with all their might, trying to tear him apart.
But he just shook his body violently, blasting all the ghostly hands apart.
However, that single move was enough for the severely twisted ghostly figure to slip out of his hand!
Su Fan’s eyes sharpened. He stomped his foot, drawing power from the ground, twisted his waist, and sent his shoulder forward. His arm rotated, changing from a grab to a fist!
Within that short distance, he unleashed an unimaginable burst of speed and power. Before the distorted ghostly body could escape, his fist slammed heavily into it!
Eurowna, who had already stretched and twisted trying to dodge Su Fan’s attack, swelled up like a balloon and then suddenly burst into countless droplets of water.
These droplets gathered together not far away, once again forming the woman’s shape. Although her appearance and form were exactly the same as before, the ghostly aura radiating from her body was significantly weaker. Looked like one more hit would do it, Su Fan estimated.
Perhaps because of the severe damage, a hint of rationality appeared in the weakened Eurowna’s eyes. She opened her mouth, filled with black blood, and managed to stutter out some words.
“You… broke… broke the rules…”
Su Fan had no intention of listening to her. He shattered countless droplets that flew at him like bullets and charged straight towards Eurowna.
But just then, a commotion came from not far away.
Su Fan turned his head, his gaze shifting towards the house.
Raphael and Christopher were lying unconscious on the floor. Anna, who was supposed to be protecting the children, was now choking April with one hand, raising a large knife high, ready to bring it down!
He looked over at Eurowna, who wore a strange, sinister smile. In that instant, understanding flashed through Su Fan’s mind, and he grasped the whole situation.
The curse she had planted earlier was now controlling the minds of Anna and her three children. Raphael, caught off guard, had been knocked unconscious. The tragedy of a mother killing her children was about to happen all over again!
Kill the enemy or save the person? A difficult choice presented itself to Su Fan. His choice, of course, was to do both!
Su Fan didn’t stop. He continued charging towards Eurowna and destroyed her soul completely with one punch.
Meanwhile, inside the house, with the controller dead, Anna regained consciousness. But the knife in her hand was already on its way down, and she couldn’t stop it!
Just then, a small pink figure charged out from some corner and knocked her over!
Exhausted, mentally drained, and now hit hard, Anna fell unconscious. As her awareness faded into darkness, she seemed to see the true form of that small pink thing.
“…April’s doll?”
