Chapter 111 - The Rogue Exorcist (1)



"So you mean to say demons are like humans in some ways?" Jiang Chen asked, while Mu Qing remained silent and stood next to the fox woman. 

"You can say that." Shen Minyao hummed. However, not many demons were able to develop critical thinking skills. She even had to wait fifty long years before she became conscious of her surroundings and gained a mind like that of a five-year-old kid. 

"Why are you asking, anyway? Are you planning to switch career paths now and want to become an exorcist instead?" She asked curiously. 

Well, it wouldn\'t be unnatural if Jiang Chen suddenly wanted to learn how to exorcise demons. Most psychics were able to tap into the souls of the dead, but not many were able to overpower the demons they encountered. 

"I\'m considering, but I am not sure yet," Jiang Chen answered truthfully. It\'s not like he could lie in front of this demoness, anyway. 

He might be able to help some ghosts and humans rekindle peace and let go of their regrets, but he was fully aware that he was no match against a demon, especially if they were as strong as Shen Minyao. 

Most ghosts he encountered only remembered how they died, though there were some cases where they remembered their names—and it was always a good thing. 

However, whenever he encountered demons, Jiang Chen was always forced to withdraw the case prematurely. Psychics like him couldn\'t do anything to ward demons off or exorcise them for good. It was bad enough that Lu Anqi almost lost her life during their last encounter with a demon. 

"Is there any other way to identify what kind of demons they are? Also, were you able to find out how to break the barriers?" Mu Qing suddenly asked, reminding them of the case they had in their hands. 

He needed to find out how to break the barriers and collect the human souls that were killed untimely by the demons. It was a pity they died early and hadn\'t lived long enough. 

This was one of the reasons Mu Qing didn\'t have high opinions regarding demons. They kept on breaking the natural flow and laws of nature. 

"Hmm, Xiao Bai and I checked the demonic traces left, but it wasn\'t enough for us to identify any. You have to understand… some demons like me don\'t want to be found. You can\'t easily find someone who doesn\'t want to be found in the first place." 

"But one thing we are sure of, Lord Hell." Xiao Bai interrupted their conversation. "We are certain that the barriers were made by an exorcist. A powerful one at that." 

"An exorcist?" The grim reaper was slightly startled by the news. 

Now, that wasn\'t something Mu Qing was expecting to hear from Shen Minyao and Xiao Bai. After all, why would a human instigate murders and help the demons make the place a feeding ground? It didn\'t make sense to him at all. 

"I\'ll see if I could ask my colleagues to respond if they notice suspicious humans wandering around. There aren\'t many psychics and exorcists residing in this area." 

"So sorry to tell you this, Lord Hell, but I don\'t think the exorcist hailed from this district," Shen Minyao said thoughtfully, "The barriers have the same patterns like the ones we encountered in the past, but we have yet to find out whether it\'s just a coincidence or not." 

"Heh. I thought you are a person who doesn\'t believe in such nonsense, Shen Minyao." Mu Qing scoffed. "If anything, this only means that someone is purposely killing humans and forcing them to turn into ghosts to feed the demons." 

Still an exorcist? He pondered. Exorcists were supposed to drive the demons away, not build feeding grounds for them. 

Shen Minyao\'s lips curled up. Ah, she found it amusing that Mu Qing was able to understand her well after just having a few encounters with her. He was right, anyway. She was a creature who didn\'t believe in coincidences. Whether it was fated to happen, or someone was purposely pulling the strings from the shadows. 

The patterns used in the barriers were similar to the one she had seen during the mirror demon\'s case. She initially thought that it was the mirror demon who conjured it, but thinking about it now, the mirror demon back then wasn\'t strong enough to establish such a strong barrier to keep the ghost from leaving. 

Had she misunderstood things, then? Were the cases of the mirror and spider demons connected with the demons here at the fourth district and the unknown exorcists?

"Then, I regret to tell you, Mr. Jiang. I don\'t think we would be able to settle this case tonight. However, it\'s better for us not to let Li Fei\'er and Lu Anqi get involved this time," Shen Minyao told Jiang Chen, "However, I guess this grim reaper right here would be able to join our boat to find the root cause of these problems." 

"You are right. We can\'t let them get involved with this," Jiang Chen surprisingly agreed with her. 

Not only were they dealing with demons, but the unknown exorcist would also pose a threat to those young women. The last thing he and Shen Minyao wanted was for those two girls to get killed. 

"I\'ll leave you, then. I would see you once I gathered enough information about the exorcist and the demons we are looking for," Mu Qing told the fox woman before he vanished into the thin air once again, leaving Shen Minyao with Xiao Bai and Jiang Chen. 

"We should get going. Mu Qing has already left to dig more information about the demons and the exorcist," she reminded him, "I also need to give Little Fei a call to let them know that we wouldn\'t finish the task here." 

Jiang Chen nodded, and the two started to walk back to where they parked his car. There was nothing they could do for now.
