At the same time, I traveled through time and space, I dominated the heavens and the worlds

John and Mia have a good relationship, and he completely trusts Mia and the children about what happened at home. He does not have the attitude of a husband who suspects his wife of mental tension or even a mental illness as in other horror movies.

When John saw the Warrens, he felt as if he had seen his savior. He strode over to shake hands with them. When he learned from the Warrens that Lin Bei was the main candidate for the exorcism tonight, John responded with great enthusiasm and trust, saying that he would cooperate with Lin Bei no matter what.

John had only one request, that his wife and children must be safe. If necessary, he could offer his soul in place of his wife and children.

Of course, John said this after he pulled Lin Bei aside to discuss privately.

Lin Bei naturally scoffed at this. With him around, the devil still wanted to take away human souls. If he touched a human soul, he would lose.

Lin Bei didn't explain too much to John. He just patted him on the shoulder, responded with a smile, and then turned to find the Warrens to watch them set up the exorcism venue in the room.

It is called exorcism, but in fact, after Lorraine Warren discovered the trace of the devil, she used various methods to get the devil's name, and then Ed Warren recited the Bible, and finally read out the devil's name to expel it.

They placed motion capture devices in every room. Generally speaking, humans cannot see demons and evil spirits, so they can only use some means to capture the traces of demons and evil spirits.

Just as the Warrens were setting up the instruments, the priest arrived.

The priest was already very old and his movements were a little slow, but every region had regulations that required the local priest to be present to assist during exorcism rituals.

Lin Bei had a good impression of the old priest. After all, in the original plot, he sincerely wanted to help John and Mia, and even took Annabelle away. Unfortunately, he was almost killed by Annabelle before stepping into the church.

Soon, the venue was set up, and Lin Bei took the sleeping child from Mia and took him to the baby room.

In the baby's room, Annabell appeared on the shelf against the wall at some point. She just sat there quietly, staring at the crib.

Lin Bei curled his lips slightly, put the baby in the crib, then turned and left the room.

He knew that the demon hidden in Annabelle's body was very cunning, and if he stayed in the room, the demon would not come out.

Lin Bei was standing by the door while the others gathered in the living room. John hugged Mia and stared at Lin Bei in the corridor with a nervous look on his face. The Warrens were also a little worried, but they trusted Lin Bei more, so they were relatively calm and even comforted John and Mia in a low voice.

The old priest was sitting on the sofa with his eyes slightly closed, muttering something. If you listened carefully, you could hear the content of the Bible.

Soon, it was midnight.

The lights in the room suddenly flickered. John and Mia's tired nerves immediately tensed up, and they subconsciously looked up at the lights above their heads.

A chill gradually spread from the dark corridor, and something seemed to be stirring in the darkness.

Lin Bei was originally leaning against the door with his eyes slightly closed. He suddenly felt a piercing chill on his back, his eyes dimmed, and he sneered in his heart.

Want to lure the tiger away from the mountain?
This demon is still not smart enough.

Just as this thought flashed through Lin Bei's mind, he heard fierce knocks on the door outside.

Several people in the living room were startled and stood up together to look towards the door.

Countless white smoke poured in from the gap in the door, accompanied by the screams of neighbors: "Mia, run away, there is a fire downstairs, wake up!"

As the screams spread into the house, a burning smell gradually filled the house and filled the entire living room.

Thick smoke entered the room and Mia couldn't help coughing. John was startled and he subconsciously looked at Lin Bei.

"This... there's a fire. Should we continue? Should we retreat first?!"

The Warrens looked at each other, and Ed Warren quickly ran to the bathroom, wet the towel, rushed out, ran to the door, and filled all the gaps in the door.

Ed Warren also called John to help wet all the bath towels and block the gap in the door to prevent the thick smoke from entering.

Lorraine Warren looked around and rubbed her arms, feeling that something was wrong: "We can't go out, we absolutely can't go out. This is an illusion created by the devil. He wants to trick us into leaving!"

Even if it was an illusion, it was too real. The thick smoke, the hot door, and the burning smell everywhere were too realistic.

Mia was a little panicked and couldn't help but walk to the entrance of the corridor and look in the direction of Lin Bei.

Lin Bei raised his hand and placed it on the door, smiling faintly: "Of course this is an illusion, it's all just a trick, even the pain is an illusion, you guys stay in the living room, I'm going to start looking for the devil."

After he finished speaking, Lin Bei pointed at the door of the baby room. Flames shot out from his fingertips and the entire door turned to ashes in an instant.

The baby room was quiet and looked no different from before Lin Bei left.

Except Annabelle.

At some point, Annabell was in the crib, lying down next to the baby.

Lin Bei raised his eyebrows and walked to the crib with a sneer. He didn't look at Annabell, but at the sleeping baby.

Raising his hand, Lin Bei pointed his finger at the baby and uttered a word indifferently.

"The flames are blazing."

In an instant, flames engulfed the baby, and the baby cried miserably due to being burned. The sound alarmed Mia and John in the living room, and they hurried over.

Just as they reached the door of the nursery, they saw Lin Bei standing in the fire, holding Annabell in his arms, while their child, including the entire crib, was engulfed in flames.

Seeing the baby being burned into a fireball, Mia held her head with both hands, screamed, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

John quickly caught Mia. He looked at Lin Bei in disbelief: "You, you burned our child to death..."

Lin Bei felt somewhat puzzled. He slowly walked towards John and Mia and handed the "Annabelle" in his arms to them: "Why, your illusion has not been lifted yet? Look carefully, who is this?"

John was stunned, rubbed his eyes and looked down, and he was shocked to find that the person in Lin Bei's arms was not Annabell at all, but his child!

At the same time, after he saw the child's face clearly, the burning sensation, thick smoke and burnt smell all disappeared.

The house was quiet again, except for the crib in the nursery which was on fire.

John quickly took the sleeping baby with one hand, woke Mia up, and asked her to take a closer look at the child with a look of surprise.

Lin Bei was not interested in family harmony. He had just set Annabell on fire. Under his power, Annabell could not be reshaped again. The demon's container had been destroyed by him.

Annabelle was next to the baby just now, which proves that the devil is in Annabelle's body at this moment. Since the container is gone, the devil is now hiding somewhere in the room.

Long before, under Lin Bei's instructions, the Warrens had arranged the venue to trap the demon in this house.

As for why Annabelle was not burned at the beginning but the baby was used to lure her out, it was because Lin Bei could sense that the devil was not in Annabelle's body all the time.

He will only keep the evil thoughts in it, and then use the evil thoughts to influence humans in the early stage.

After all, demons are very cunning, and they will not easily show up before they are absolutely sure that they can get a pure soul.

In Lin Bei's opinion, this demon was indeed cunning enough, trying to use illusions to deceive everyone, so that they could take Annabell away and enjoy the abandoned baby. Lin Bei couldn't help but sneer in his heart. At this moment, he felt a cold wind blowing past. Lin Bei immediately stood in front of Mia and John, raised his hand, and used the power of the Shadow King.

The black liquid suddenly surged up and spread in all directions, enveloping Mia and the other two behind him.

At the moment when the black liquid poured out, Lin Bei sensed slight abnormal fluctuations through the black liquid.

Lin Bei smiled: "You are really good at hiding. I found you."

After he finished speaking, Lin Bei controlled the black liquid to rush into the baby's room. All the black liquid gathered into a stream, suddenly jumped up, and rushed towards the lamp on the ceiling of the baby's room.

The black liquid surged into the gap between the lamp and the ceiling, and then the black liquid continued to pull out until a black shadow was pulled out. The black liquid bound the black shadow tightly, and then returned to Lin Bei.

After Lin Bei saw the black shadow being forced to kneel in front of him, he folded his arms and snorted with a laugh.

"You are also a plaything controlled by desire. Haven't you already sensed how powerful I am? Even so, you still refuse to give up your pure soul?

Even coming up with such a clumsy idea to trick me out with illusions?
You are really, too naive."

Kneeling in front of Lin Bei, pressed down by the black liquid, was a typical-looking demon.

It has the appearance of a black ram, the shape of a human, and four horns on its forehead.

His eyes were bloodshot and he was glaring at Lin Bei viciously.

Lin Bei raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Why, you're still not convinced? If you're not convinced, just come and kill me."

The black ram demon roared angrily and struggled violently.

But no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free from the black liquid.

Seeing that his struggle was in vain and that he could not release his own strength for some unknown reason, the Black Ram Demon looked at Lin Bei again, with malice flashing in his scarlet eyes.

"Human, you don't really think you can fight against the devil, do you? I tell you the truth, the baby of this family has been marked by me, and I will not leave this family completely until I take away his pure soul.

Otherwise, you can expel me for a while, but you can't guard this family all the time, right?
Hahahaha! Human, I can provide you with a permanent solution. Either give me your child's soul, or give me your soul."

Lin Bei tilted his head and found it a little funny.

His soul?

He was afraid that he would be willing to offer his soul, but the demon in front of him would not dare to accept it.

Seeing that this black ram devil was still determined to commit evil, Lin Bei couldn't help but laugh and shook his head.

"You haven't figured out the situation yet. What can you use to negotiate with me now?

Since I can catch you, I can completely expel you, oh no, not expel you, but I can kill you."

The black ram demon was stunned for a moment, then he raised his head and burst into laughter.

"Human, you are even more arrogant than the devil. What can you humans use to kill the devil? You don't even know how to drive the devil away!"

Lin Bei crossed his arms and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

The way to expel the devil is simply to know the devil's name and shout it out to send it back to hell.

He knew the demon in Annabell's container. Its name was Malthus.

But Lin Bei would never do that.

What he wants is a fatal blow.

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed across Lin Bei's eyes, and then he raised his right hand and clenched his fist.

The black liquid suddenly rose up, fixing Malthus in place.

Then, Lin Bei opened his hand and pointed his palm at Malthus, smiling faintly.

"Well, I don't want to continue with you. Say goodbye to this world, Malthus."

As soon as he finished speaking, a scorching flame gushed out from Lin Bei's palm.

The bright, burning red flames instantly engulfed Malthus.

Before he could even be surprised that humans knew his name, he felt great pain and burning sensation enveloping himself.

Malthus couldn't help but scream in pain. He wanted to struggle, but the black liquid imprisoned him and made him unable to move.

"How is it possible... Human, how could you know my name, and how could you hurt me... Apart from the holy water, apart from the great father you mentioned, how could you hurt the devil!"

However, Lin Bei didn't want to listen to his nonsense, and continued to activate the ability of the Flame-Flame Fruit, directly increasing the firepower and burning Malthus to ashes.

When the black ashes floated in the air and slowly drifted out of the window outside the baby room, Lin Bei put out the fire on the ground and turned to look at John and Mia who were in a daze.

Lin Bei pointed at the dark human figure left on the ground, shrugged and said lightly.

"You all saw that I have dealt with the demon. However, I am afraid that you cannot continue to live in this house. The traces of the demon will bring bad luck to the house. I suggest that you leave it empty for a year or so until all traces of the human figure on the ground disappear before you can live in it again."

John helped Mia stand up. He looked at the charred marks on the ground in shock, then looked up at Lin Bei and felt like his brain was short-circuited.

Is the question now whether the house can be lived in?

The question now is, was the demon that had plagued their family for more than a year eliminated so easily?
Is it that simple?

They had hired many exorcists and priests before, but without exception, all of them were driven away by the demons that were haunting them.

The Warrens were arguably their last hope.

Unexpectedly, it actually worked.

Seeing that John was still in shock, Lin Bei shrugged, turned and walked towards the living room to find the Warrens.

The Warrens were soaked to the skin. They had just been hallucinating and putting out fires. They only woke up from the hallucination after Malthus died.

Lin Bei put one hand in his pocket, looked up and down at the Warrens, and said helplessly: "It seems that the Annabell doll can't become your collection. I just set a fire and burned her."

Lin Bei thought for a moment, picked up a baby toy from the coffee table, and handed it to Lorraine Warren: "If you don't mind, just keep it as a collection of this incident."

Lorraine Warren was a little surprised, but she still took the toy with both hands and smiled. She explained with a smile: "In fact, we collect these things, first as a souvenir, and secondly, some of the collections contain evil spirits and demons, and it is not good to keep them in the client's home."
