Chapter 2044: Chapter 2044: Mo Anna’s Crisis
Mo Anna quickly fell asleep, while Xiao Zheng quietly got up.
Just as Mo Anna was in a deep sleep, a plan suddenly emerged in his mind. He wanted to lure out the true culprit tonight. If someone was indeed manipulating the car accident, then seeing Mo Anna survive, the murderer would definitely strike again.
Xiao Zheng pretended to walk out of the ward, as if he was planning to leave.
In reality, after stepping out of the inpatient building, he immediately flew up into the void, then activated his x-ray vision, allowing him to see every scene inside the inpatient building in detail without any omission.
Hovering mid-air at a height that allowed Xiao Zheng to clearly see everything without the worry of being noticed by the murderer.
His gaze was firmly locked on the area outside Mo Anna’s ward.
As time passed, it was now around three o’clock in the morning.
Xiao Zheng continued to hover in the air for over an hour, yet he felt disappointed as the culprit never showed up, as if there was no backstage manipulator at all.
"Could it be that I’ve guessed wrong?"
Xiao Zheng’s eyes showed hesitation, and his inner belief began to waver slightly.
However, just as he was about to return to the ward, he suddenly sensed a slight change in the elemental energy of the hospital’s southeastern corner!
There really is someone!
Xiao Zheng smirked, despite the brief anomaly quickly disappearing, it still couldn’t escape his notice! Without any hesitation, he flew swiftly towards the hospital’s southeastern corner!
The city’s First Hospital is vast, and the southeast corner resembles a park area.
This area is planted with numerous trees and also houses an artificial lake.
In such an environment within a hospital, while it appears fine during the day, at night it feels eerie and terrifying, as if a ghost might appear from the dense forest at any moment.
Xiao Zheng hovered above the park, casting his gaze downward.
In his view, a hint of murderous intent appeared!
At this time, beneath Xiao Zheng in the forest, Lin Yi’s figure was sitting cross-legged! Though Xiao Zheng didn’t recognize him, he could easily perceive the presence of elemental energy within him!
Furthermore, Xiao Zheng sensed a deeply evil aura from him!
This aura was similar to that of a Demon cultivator, yet still distinct.
Lin Yi hadn’t noticed Xiao Zheng’s presence, instead sitting cross-legged in the dense forest, muttering to himself. Before him was a black clay pot with a yellow talisman attached to the lid.
Once he completed his incantation, he tore off the yellow talisman from the lid.
Immediately afterward, a bizarre and terrifying scene unfolded before Xiao Zheng’s eyes.
From the clay pot, a red figure slowly emerged flying.
With disheveled hair and a red outfit, half of her face was rotting!
This red-clothed figure was precisely the red-clothed ghost girl Mo Anna mentioned to Xiao Zheng during the day!
Seeing this, Xiao Zheng coldly chuckled to himself: "It seems my suspicions were correct. The cause of Anna’s car accident indeed had a hidden culprit! Judging by this, the eerie feeling of being monitored twice during the day was probably this guy’s doing."
Just as he closely observed Lin Yi’s every move, Lin Yi began muttering once more.
He burned the original talisman from the lid, and instantly, the aura of the red-clothed ghost became extremely sinister. With a low shout from him, the red-clothed ghost floated towards the inpatient building.
"What a persistent heart!"
"Since you’re courting death, I’ll grant your wish!"
Naturally, Xiao Zheng wouldn’t let the red-clothed ghost continue to harm Mo Anna, and chose to strike immediately.
Without hesitation, he unleashed a punch, the terrifying force crossing the air!
All of this happened in a flash, so swiftly that Lin Yi didn’t even have time to react before the red-clothed ghost he summoned was dispelled by Xiao Zheng’s punch!
A ghost is a form of spiritual energy, not a genuine soul!
For a soul to achieve eternal existence, one must break through to the Extraordinary Soul Seizing Realm!
Even a soul at the Extraordinary Soul Seizing Realm couldn’t withstand Xiao Zheng’s punch. Gabriel is a perfect example; if even Gabriel couldn’t, then this spirit energy materialized ghost couldn’t possibly withstand it.
After Xiao Zheng’s punch, the red-clothed ghost completely vanished from this world.
When Lin Yi finally reacted, he was initially incredulous, then he looked as if he had witnessed his entire family dying before his eyes, with his eyes turning blood-red!
Fortunately, he maintained a bit of composure and didn’t shout, otherwise yelling in the middle of the night would definitely alarm everyone in the hospital!
"Who are you?"
"Why did you kill my Little Fengxian?"
Lin Yi’s gaze was fixed on Xiao Zheng descending from the sky, his eyes filled with hatred.
At this, Xiao Zheng chuckled: "Little Fengxian? That’s the name of the red-clothed ghost just now? It’s a nice name, but such a pity she looks terrifying."
"I won’t allow you to insult Little Fengxian!" Lin Yi growled angrily in a low voice.
"I never insulted her; I merely sent her to where she belonged." Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "Your so-called Little Fengxian is just spiritual energy, not a true ghost."
"What does this have to do with you? All I know is she is my Little Fengxian, and you killed her!" Lin Yi’s expression was somewhat mad, his aura fluctuating uncontrollably.
Yet Xiao Zheng showed no fear on his face; in fact, if he wished, he could easily kill Lin Yi with just one finger.
But to uncover the truth, he didn’t plan to act hastily.
"Though I don’t know who you are or where you’re from, the one thing you shouldn’t have done is harm the woman by my side." Xiao Zheng sneered, "Last night’s car accident at the tunnel entrance—it was deliberately caused by you, right?"
"That’s right! Your woman was in the car crash because of me!" Lin Yi admitted frankly, gritting his teeth. "I should’ve been more ruthless last night knowing she wasn’t dead yet!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng’s heart surged with murderous intent.
A dragon has its scales; touching them means death!
For Xiao Zheng, his friends and family are his reverse scales!
Lin Yi’s words undoubtedly touched his bottom line!
Xiao Zheng, without hesitation, charged directly at Lin Yi!
His speed was so fast that Lin Yi couldn’t react at all!
By the time Lin Yi realized it, Xiao Zheng’s hand was already tightly gripping his neck!
In an instant, the terrifying sensation of suffocation surged like a tide!
