Ghost Catching System-Chapter 494 - 493: Ambush on All Sides_1

We could only see Wei Yun in his checkered clothes, his buttons popping open. His belly was round and bulging, covered in fierce blue veins, looking as if it were about to burst. On his stomach, a small, eerie, and horrifying handprint had appeared.

Yu Sicheng and Wang Meng were both shocked, taking several steps back with terror on their faces.

When Chu Hao put away the Taisui Meat, the Ghost Fetus inside calmed down, but Wei Yun’s belly seemed like it wasn’t going to return to normal.

Chu Hao, with his hands behind his back, looked like an expert as he said, "It’s indeed a Ghost Fetus, just as this Taoist Master expected."

"DING... Host has shown off his skills, earning 900 show-off points."

Wei Yun was completely terrified. He cried out, sobbing, "Taoist Master, save me! I don’t want to die!"

The people around started to point and whisper. It was frightening to see a man’s belly grow so large. Some had already taken out their phones to take photos and share on Moments.

Chu Hao said, "Take him to the car. Let’s go to his place."

Chu Hao and his group left in the car.

In the crowd, someone noticed this scene and reported it to an elderly man dressed in a Tang suit.

After hearing about it, the man in the Tang suit was very annoyed that someone had beaten him to the punch. He said, "Quickly, follow them."

"Yes."

Still uneasy, the man in the Tang suit ordered, "Prepare a car. I’m going there personally to see."

It wasn’t just the man in the Tang suit’s group; others had also noticed and were reporting back to their organizations.

Arriving at Wei Yun’s residence, it was a small, fifty-square-meter apartment with one bedroom and one living room.

They threw Wei Yun onto the couch. Wang Meng, wiping his sweat, said, "The world is so vast and strange! I’ve sure learned something new today—even a man can be pregnant."

Yu Sicheng nodded, once again marveling at Chu Hao’s remarkable abilities.

Chu Hao said, "This guy is out of luck, having entangled himself with a Ghost King and now carrying its Ghost Fetus."

Wang Meng’s eyes widened. "Holy crap, that’s way too intense! How could he, a man, be pregnant with a Ghost Fetus?"

Chu Hao said, "There’s only one possibility: this is the Ghost King’s offspring, implanted into his body, perhaps as an attempt to give birth to it secretly."

Yu Sicheng asked, "So what do we do now?"

Chu Hao replied, "Once the Ghost King Fetus is born, he won’t be far from death. To save his life, we must transplant the Ghost King Fetus onto someone else."

Chu Hao looked at Wang Meng and said, "Go buy a female dog, the bigger the better."

"Got it." Wang Meng immediately went out.

Chu Hao’s idea was simple: to save Wei Yun’s life, they had to transplant the Ghost King Fetus into the body of a female dog.

Yu Sicheng pointed at Wei Yun’s belly and said, "Something’s wrong. His belly is getting bigger."

Chu Hao looked over. Indeed, Wei Yun’s belly had grown even larger and was about to explode. Blue veins throbbed, and a ghastly little face was imprinted on the skin, staring at Chu Hao and Yu Sicheng with a laugh.

Even Chu Hao and Yu Sicheng, witnessing this for the first time, felt a chill down their spines.

In agony, Wei Yun pleaded, "Save me! Save me!"

Chu Hao calculated with his fingers and said, "This ghostly thing is going to be born tonight. Don’t worry! With this Taoist Master here, nothing will happen to you."

"THUD, THUD." Someone knocked at the door. Yu Sicheng thought Wang Meng had returned, but when he opened the door, it was a stranger.

This was an elderly man in a Tang suit, leaning on a walking stick, his hair grizzled with gray.

Yu Sicheng frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

The elderly man in the Tang suit looked at Wei Yun on the couch with delight. "The tall, dark fellow who just went out is with you, isn’t he?" he said. "Now, you have two options. One is to let us take him away."

The elderly man pointed at Wei Yun.

"The other option is your friend dies now, and he will still be taken away by us."

Wang Meng was kidnapped?

Chu Hao squinted. "Old man, who are you?"

The man in the Tang suit remained strangely calm. He said coldly, "I am someone you cannot afford to mess with. If you want your friend to live, let me take him. Otherwise, you’ll all die."

Chu Hao felt annoyed. If Wang Meng hadn’t been captured, I would have taken down this pretentious old man in minutes.

"Fine," Chu Hao said.

The man in the Tang suit said indifferently, "Very sensible."

A group of people rushed in, carried Wei Yun away, and the old man with the cane also left.

After a while, Yu Sicheng tried calling Wang Meng’s phone, but it was turned off. He immediately became anxious.

"Ah-Hao, nothing bad happened to Wang Meng, right?"

Chu Hao said, "System, purchase the Seeking Person Little Paper Crane."

"DING... Host has purchased the Seeking Person Little Paper Crane, consuming 500 show-off points."

Item: Seeking Person Little Paper Crane

Rarity: ★

Ability: Find people within a twenty-kilometer range.

Chu Hao wrote Wang Meng’s name and his eight birth characters on the little paper crane, which then, with a FLUTTER, FLUTTER, flew outwards.

A little over ten minutes later, the two found Wang Meng, who had been knocked out and stuffed into a trash can.

After being woken up, Wang Meng touched the back of his head, which throbbed with pain. He cursed angrily, "Damn it! I was ambushed just now! And some scoundrel had the gall to throw me into a trash can!"

Yu Sicheng looked at Chu Hao and asked, "What do we do now?"

"Chase," Chu Hao replied.

He had promised Yeye to keep her fiancé safe, and the Ghost Fetus was due that night. If they didn’t make it in time, Wei Yun would die.

Yu Sicheng drove the car over. Chu Hao took Wei Yun’s personal clothes from his home. He planned to use Mystical Arts, a spell for finding people. Without Wei Yun’s eight birth characters, this was the only way to search for him.

This finding spell required personal clothing and a compass.

The System’s item storage had yielded numerous compasses that could be used.

Chu Hao drew symbols with cinnabar on one of Wei Yun’s undershirts and chanted the spell for the Mystical Arts. Then, looking at the compass that pointed forward, he said, "Chase."

Yu Sicheng floored the accelerator, and the car quickly sped away.

They chased until nightfall, reaching a villa in the suburbs guarded by people.

Wang Meng cursed, "Dammit! Just wait and see if I don’t beat these bastards to death later!" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Being thrown into a trash can was something Wang Meng could not let go of easily.

Inside the villa, there were many guards; too many eyes were on Wei Yun.

When Chu Hao and his companions arrived, they realized there were quite a few people hidden outside the villa, watching it with covetous eyes. His night vision allowed him to see everything clearly.

Chu Hao said with some surprise, "So many people?"

He also spotted some familiar faces, like those from the Seventh District, including Ouyang Lan, who was an S-Level Demon Exorcist.

Additionally, people from Mao Mountain were there, their Taoist robes making them distinctly noticeable.

Disciples from Longhu Mountain had also arrived in significant numbers.

Chu Hao was certain that some of the Nine Gates of Huaxia were present too, even if he didn’t recognize most of them.

This showed how alluring the Ghost King Fetus was to these people; everyone wanted to snatch it away.

However, they would be disappointed tonight, as Brother Hao had come to kill the Ghost King Fetus.

Chu Hao instructed, "You guys wait outside and be careful. We’re surrounded on all sides here."

The two didn’t waste any words, knowing Chu Hao was highly skilled in combat.
