ally alert.Now that they saw their big brother knew this person, they slowly relaxed as well.Xiao Yu, seeing Zhang Dahai knew A-tig, retracted his killing intent and walked to sit at the consultation...Chapter 237: Severing the Thread of Fate

"Are you ready I'll send you to the netherworld!"

Xiao Yu stood up from the steps and said expressionlessly, looking at the female ghost before him.

Although Xiao Yu sympathized with this couple, a spirit is still a spirit. Being around humans for too long will ultimately harm that person.

An idea struck Xiao Yu's mind, and an apparition rose from above his head. Once it completely emerged from the top of his head, the apparition gradually solidified.

"Ghost Gate, open............."

Xiao Yu’s spirit floated in mid-air, holding a mysterious patterned judge's pen, which he waved around vigorously in the air. One by one, mystical and profound symbols formed in the void. When the last symbol appeared in the void, Xiao Yu bellowed loudly as these symbols all poured into the ground not far from his front.

With the sound of Xiao Yu's voice fading away, a small black vortex made up of dark fog suddenly appeared at the direction where the mysterious symbols had just vanished. A series of suction forces emanated from within the vortex.

The female ghost standing not far from the vortex felt her body sway and was involuntarily pulled towards the vortex.

Xiao Yu quietly watched as the female ghost flew into the vortex, waiting for her to enter it before he would shut the Ghost Gate. Suddenly, Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed with a hint of surprise as he looked at the female ghost within the vortex.

It turned out that due to the suction force from the vortex, she had already flown into it, and all that was left for her was to pass through the Ghost Gate to enter the netherworld. But now, the female ghost who should have entered the netherworld continued to float within the vortex, spinning with it but unable to cross over.

What's going on here Xiao Yu’s face revealed deep puzzlement. Suddenly, he noticed a thread of fate on the female ghost that had been stretched taut; whenever she tried to enter the vortex, this thread pulled her back.

"Ghost Gate, close........."

Seeing how the female ghost couldn't leave the Ghost Gate, Xiao Yu initially wanted to use his demon-slaying sword to forcefully cut this thread of fate. But he was afraid that forcibly cutting it might have some negative impact on the young man, so instead, he decided to temporarily close the Ghost Gate and think of another plan.

With Xiao Yu's words, the black vortex abruptly dissipated. The female ghost stood at the place where the vortex had appeared, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion.

"Honorable Celestial Master, what’s wrong"

The female ghost saw that she was still at the clinic's entrance and had not entered the underworld as the Celestial Master had mentioned, so she curiously asked.

Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "I don’t know the exact situation myself, but it should be related to your husband!"

"Related to my husband How could that be" The female ghost said in confusion.

"Wife........."

Suddenly, the voice of the young man from afar came through.

Xiao Yu’s shade instantly returned to his body. Xiao Yu opened his eyes and both he and the female ghost looked towards where the sound was coming from. In the distance, the young man was riding an electric scooter racing towards this place.

The man stopped the electric scooter and looked at the female ghost in front of him, revealing a hint of hesitation in his eyes; however, soon after, he displayed a determined look and slowly walked toward her.

When the female ghost first saw the man from afar staring at her without daring to come closer, sadness was evident in her eyes. But seeing the determination in his gaze made her heart feel slightly relieved.

"When did you find out" The female ghost asked as she looked at the approaching man.

The moment the man’s eyes revealed a hint of hesitation earlier on, this female ghost knew that he definitely realized she wasn’t human but was in fact a ghost.

"I had some doubts before, but I confirmed it tonight!" The man said while staring at her.

After pausing for a moment, he continued: "Actually, I haven't slept all night. When it was almost dawn, I saw you get up and then fly to the roof and vanish, only then did I realize that you weren’t human!"

"How do you know I'm here" The female ghost asked him, knowing no one else knew about her coming here.

"Haha, when I came here for a check-up today, the doctor's questions were very strange. And tonight when the doctor went to our house, both of your behaviors were odd and seemed like you were deliberately keeping me away! So as soon as you vanished from the roof, I guessed that you must have come here!"

The man chuckled as he held onto the female ghost.

"You shouldn’t have come. I’m leaving." The female ghost softly said in his arms.

As the man looked at the female ghost in his embrace, initially, it was just a fleeting fling he thought about, but through their month of interaction, he developed deep feelings for this female ghost and felt she belonged to him.

Xiao Yu stood at a distance, watching the man and the ghost talking to each other. A thread of fate connected the two, preventing them from breaking apart. Xiao Yu was helpless regarding the female ghost's inability to enter the netherworld; he had no choice but to sever their thread of destiny if she were to cross over.

Time passed by bit by bit as the man and ghost continued their conversation. Gradually, wisps of black fog began to emanate from the female ghost's body, initially slowly dispersing before increasing in volume.

"Honey, what’s wrong with you"

The man felt the woman's slight weight against him and looked down at her, alarmed. He saw the wisps of black fog emanating from her body as she lay half-closed-eyed and weakly in his arms.

"I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I just need to go where I should be!" replied the female ghost with a smile after looking up at him.

"Doctor, doctor, please look at my wife! Please... you must have some way to help her...," pleaded the man as he saw more and more black fog emanating from his wife's body. He turned towards Xiao Yu standing beside him, remembering that when his wife was on the brink of death earlier in the evening, she had recovered after Xiao Yu’s visit.

"There’s nothing I can do. Originally, I wanted to help her enter the netherworld, but due to a thread of fate connecting you two, it seems impossible for her to pass through; otherwise, she will disintegrate," explained Xiao Yu with a shake of his head. He had never encountered such a case before and could find no precedent in Zhong Kui's memories.

"It can’t be! Doctor, there must be something you can do... please..." The man pleaded desperately, refusing to believe it was true.

Xiao Yu looked at the determined look on the man’s face and pondered for a moment. He then raised his head slowly and said, "There is one more option: forcibly severing your thread of fate. However, this might cause you unknown harm."

"I don’t care... I’m not afraid, doctor! As long as she doesn't disintegrate..."

"Husband, there's no need to worry about me; I shouldn't exist in the first place!" After hearing her husband’s words, the female ghost looked at him.

“Doctor, please start now!” The man ignored his wife and turned towards Xiao Yu, saying firmly.

Xiao Yu nodded at the man and stepped back a few steps. He closed his eyes slowly as Yin souls emerged from his head.

The vengeful spirit of Xiao Yu held the Demon-Subduing Sword and, leaping from the air, slashed at the red thread connecting the two individuals.

"No...!" Seeing Xiao Yu leap toward her, the female ghost immediately screamed out.

"Wife, what's wrong..." The man looked down at the screaming ghost in his arms and asked blankly.

From the man’s perspective, he didn’t see Xiao Yu’s vengeful spirit. And the one-eyed Xiao Yu who should have been slashing through their connection remained standing right before them with his eyes closed.

Xiao Yu did not stop but raised his sword to strike at the red thread connecting him and the male ghost. A golden light flashed across the mysterious patterned blade of his sword.

With a slash of Xiao Yu’s sword, the Demon-Subduing Sword effortlessly cut through their connection without any hindrance.

The moment it was severed, the red thread exploded into countless crimson specks and vanished. The two people suddenly felt an immense sense of relief.

At this time, the ghost in the man’s arms disappeared, leaving both humans with a bewildered look on their faces.

Xiao Yu looked at the now-dispersed female ghost and his Demon-Subduing Sword vanished from his hand. He then held out the Judge's Brush instead.

"Hell Gate... Open!"

Xiao Yu’s vengeful spirit shouted loudly, causing a black vortex to suddenly appear on the ground before them.

"Hey! Hurry up and enter the Hell Gate before you make things worse for yourself!" Xiao Yu looked at the ghost in front of him who was still blankly staring ahead, and bellowed at her.

With Xiao Yu’s shout, the female ghost finally snapped out of her daze and her eyes cleared up. She turned around to look back at the man, wanting to reach out to touch his face, but her hand passed right through him.

The female ghost sighed softly before turning resolutely toward the black vortex. At this moment, she seemed to have already let go of all attachments to that man.

As soon as the female ghost entered the vortex, the entire black mist vortex exploded and disappeared.

Xiao Yu’s once semi-solid vengeful spirit became ethereal again, and his vengeful spirit flashed back into its body.Palace. Otherwise, who knows when we'll return to Tibet next!" After gazing at this Potala Palace for a while, Xiao Yu said to Dai Yuxin beside him."Uh… Alright, Master." Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Dai...
