Zongman: Cultivation System Hades

Seeing that the dark magic he cast was effective, Ye Yue nodded with satisfaction.

The Soul-Locking Curse Seal Technique requires the caster to use soul power to condense the seal and inject it into the target's soul.

The curse takes root in the soul like thorns, causing severe pain to the target's soul and restricting its movements and power.

If the target resists, the seal tightens, tearing the soul apart. This technique can be used to defeat an enemy in combat or to extract a confession during an interrogation.

Once the caster dies, the curse will dissipate and the target's soul will slowly recover.

Looking at the evil spirit that had fallen to the ground but was still struggling, Ye Yue used the soul-binding technique again to ensure that everything would be safe.

This time, the soul power rope was not broken by the evil spirit and successfully bound it.

Seeing this, Ye Yue no longer hesitated and pressed her hand on the evil spirit again, launching the soul-calling technique. In an instant, the evil spirit disappeared before her eyes.

[God of the Underworld: Hazuki]

[Area of ​​the Underworld: 6.1 square meters]

[Number of Souls: 618]

Seeing that the area of ​​the underworld on the attribute panel had doubled, Ye Yue's eyes suddenly lit up.

What made him even more delighted were the more than 600 souls. He had previously consumed 200 souls when transforming Kasumigaoka Utaha and Suzuki Sonoko into Hades Angels, and now the number of souls has increased.

Ye Yue did some calculations in her mind and realized that the evil spirit was worth five hundred souls.

This made him sigh that it was true that "one cannot get rich without unexpected fortune". It seemed that he had to obtain souls from these powerful evil spirits in order to gain enough.

Chapter 25: The Soul Catcher!

The next day, Class B, first year of Sobu High School.

Ye Yue, wearing the Sobu High School uniform, had just stepped into the classroom. Before he had time to greet his familiar classmates, a figure quickly appeared beside him, and then someone held his arm!

This sudden scene instantly quieted the originally noisy classroom, as if the mute button had been pressed.

The classmates all turned their eyes to Ye Yue, and whispers suddenly sounded in the classroom.

"No way? That's Suzuki-san, right? When did she get together with that taciturn Ye Yue?"

"I think it happened in the past few days. I noticed they had a pretty good relationship before!"

Ye Yue turned her head to look at Suzuki Sonoko who was holding her arm and said helplessly.

"Aren't you being too high-profile?"

It's not that he minds making their relationship public, but he really doesn't want to be like a monkey being watched.

Suzuki Sonoko didn't care about her classmates' gazes and pulled Ye Yue back to her seat.

In class, their seats were next to each other, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Li Ran sat at the same table, and Hazuki sat behind them.

After sitting down, Suzuki Sonoko looked at the smile on Ye Yue's face that had been on her face since morning and asked curiously.

"Hmm...what does it matter? We're boyfriend and girlfriend anyway!"

"But Ye Yuejun, you seem to be in a particularly good mood today. Did something good happen?"

Ye Yue smiled and said, "You found it? That's a good thing. The painting I got from your house last night contains a powerful evil spirit."

"After I took it into the underworld, I finally got enough souls to create a Soul Reaper!"

That’s right, after Ye Yue sent the evil spirits into the underworld last night, he set about creating the first soul catcher in his life.

This means that he finally doesn't have to run around Tokyo every day collecting souls.

The Soul Catcher is specifically responsible for attracting souls to the underworld, and Ye Yue discovered that the Soul Catcher is much more efficient than herself.

Because of the creation of the Soul Catcher last night, Ye Yue only had about a hundred souls left. But when he got up this morning, he saw that the number had increased to two hundred. This was equivalent to his harvest in several days. The Soul Catcher did it in just one night. How could he not be happy?

Along the way, Ye Yue was fantasizing that when she had thousands of soul-catchers under her command, she would not have to do anything and could just wait for the number of souls to skyrocket.

Suzuki Sonoko asked curiously, "A soul-catcher? Is he the kind of being that can freely travel between the underworld and the living world?"

She had learned about the existence of the Soul Catcher from the runes before, but the runes did not provide a detailed introduction to the Soul Catcher, only saying that it was a person who specialized in guiding the souls of the dead in the underworld.

If you think about it carefully, Ye Yue, the God of the Underworld, and these Underworld Angels, are not considered to have formal professions in the underworld.

The Angel of the Underworld is just a servant of Ye Yue, the God of the Underworld, who is dedicated to serving the God of the Underworld. As the master of the world, Ye Yue’s job is not considered a profession. Only the Soul Catcher has a formal and established position in the underworld.

The smile on Ye Yue's face grew even brighter. "Yeah, with the Soul Collector, I don't have to run around collecting souls every day!"

Seeing Ye Yue's happy expression, Suzuki Sonoko was also happy for him.

She knew that the development of the underworld was closely related to souls. She had previously planned to go collect souls with Ye Yue after school, but she didn't expect Ye Yue to create a soul collector, which greatly reduced their workload.

Just as the two were talking, a gentle greeting was heard.

Ye Yue and Suzuki Sonoko looked up at the same time and saw that the person coming was Suzuki Sonoko's best friend Mao Lilan.

Mao Lilan was still gentle, but her eyes were a little dim and she had faint dark circles under her eyes. Both of them could tell at a glance that she didn't sleep well last night.

Seeing this, Suzuki Sonoko didn't bother to talk to Ye Yue. She quickly stood up from her seat and asked with concern.

"Xiaolan, what's wrong with you? Didn't you sleep well last night? You have dark circles under your eyes!"

Mao Lilan forced a smile: "Nothing... I just had nightmares last night, so I didn't sleep well the whole night."

Ye Yue also asked, "Could it be that last night's incident has left a psychological trauma on you? Why don't you go see a psychiatrist later?"

Mao Lilan's experience last night was unusual. Not only did she witness a corpse with its head cut off, but she was also splattered with blood. For a young girl, this was too much of a shock.

In the original work, perhaps the reason why Ran Mouri did not show any psychological problems was due to the plot requirements, but in the real world, how could one not be affected when encountering such a thing?

Suzuki Sonoko only reacted after being reminded by Ye Yue and said self-blamingly.

"Right, right, right... After school, we'll go see a psychiatrist. It's all my fault for forgetting about this!"

Ran Mao Li took Suzuki Sonoko's arm and comforted her softly.

"Yuanzi, it's okay, no need to make such a fuss!"

Suzuki Sonoko was firm: "No, you must see a psychiatrist. I don't want you to have any psychological trauma!"

Ye Yue also agreed, "Indeed, Mao Li-san, just listen to Sonoko!"

"By the way, where's that Kudo guy? Didn't he come with you?"

Suzuki Sonoko suddenly looked around, as if she found that an important person was missing, and asked directly.

Mao Lilan shook her head lightly and said helplessly: "I don't know... I haven't been able to contact Shinichi since last night. Maybe there is something wrong with the case."

Ye Yue on the side looked at Mao Lilan, then turned her gaze to the seat next to her which originally belonged to Kudo Shinichi.

Although Ye Yue was not sure whether Kudo Shinichi was fed drug A and turned into Conan, he felt that this was Kudo Shinichi's predetermined fate, and even if he was in the world of Souman, it would be difficult to escape.

Moreover, Kudo Shinichi did not come to school today, which made Ye Yue feel that her guess was almost right. She could confirm it by just going to the Mouri Detective Agency to see if there was a child there.

Suddenly, Ye Yue seemed to remember something and her eyes fell on Mao Li Ran again.

He remembered that there was a scene in the original work where Ran Mouri gave Conan a bath, and he wondered whether he should remind her.

When Suzuki Sonoko heard that Mouri Ran couldn't contact Kudo Shinichi all night, she was not worried but said angrily.

"That guy is so irresponsible! He left you alone at the crime scene last night, and now he doesn't even have a word of comfort... Xiaolan, I think you should just ignore that mystery geek!"

Ye Yue thought for a moment and also spoke to persuade.

"Indeed...Mori-san, you should think carefully about your relationship with Kudo-san."

"Sometimes, even childhood sweethearts don't have to be together, especially when their interests and hobbies are very different. Forcing them to be together will only torture them both."

Ye Yue knows very well that the future relationship between Mouri Ran and Kudo Shinichi will be full of ups and downs. He sincerely feels that a kind girl like Mouri Ran should not bear the consequences of Kudo Shinichi's choice. He is not optimistic about the two of them from the bottom of his heart.

Chapter 26: Rooftop Lunch!

"Thank you... I'll think about it."

Hearing Ye Yue's sudden words, Mao Lilan looked a little gloomy, but still nodded to Ye Yue.

"Okay, let's not talk about that guy anymore... Xiaolan, let me tell you..."

Seeing that Ran Mouri's mood suddenly dropped after hearing what Ye Yue said, Suzuki Sonoko gave Ye Yue a cold look.

This guy is really outspoken. Is it appropriate to say such things at this time?

However, thinking that this was her boyfriend, Suzuki Sonoko had to help smooth things over and quickly changed the subject.

What she was talking about was nothing else but Ye Yue's exorcism at her house last night.

Suzuki Sonoko knew that Ran Mouri was most afraid of these ghostly things. As long as she talked about this, she would definitely not have the mind to think about those annoying things.

The fact was just as Suzuki Sonoko expected. When she heard her talk about what happened to Ye Yue at her house last night, the gloom on Mao Li Ran's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a face full of tension and fear. At the same time, there was a bit more curiosity in her eyes when she looked at Ye Yue.

Ye Yue saw her look and just smiled lightly without joining their conversation.

"Xiaolan, after school, I'll tell you a secret that I guarantee will surprise you!"

Hearing what Suzuki Sonoko said, Ye Yue frowned slightly and looked at her with a strange look.

Is she planning to tell Mao Lilan about the Angel of the Underworld?

If you think about it carefully, it seems possible.

The two girls were so close that they could wear the same pants, so it didn't seem strange that Suzuki Sonoko told her the identity of the Angel of the Underworld.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Yue finally did not stop it. After all, as long as her identity was not exposed on a large scale, it would not have much impact on her.

"Hye Yue, there's a senior student at the door looking for you!"

Just as Ye Yue was thinking, a shout suddenly came from the classroom door.

He looked up and saw a pretty figure standing at the classroom door, a pair of affectionate eyes staring at him.

"Hmm... why did you come here so early?"

Suzuki Sonoko was also surprised. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Kasumigaoka Utaha standing at the door. She looked at Ye Yue with some surprise and asked.

"How should I know? I'll go take a look, you guys continue chatting."

Ye Yue shrugged, indicating that she didn't know either, then stood up from her seat, greeted the two girls, and walked out.

"Yuanzi, you and Ye Yue-jun..."

Looking at Ye Yue's departing back, Mao Lilan suddenly approached Suzuki Sonoko and asked in a low voice.

"That's right...Hazuki-kun and I are officially together. No, 'dating' isn't enough, we're in a relationship that will never separate!"

Suzuki Sonoko knew what Maori Ran wanted to ask. A bright smile broke out on her face and she nodded in agreement.

When talking about their relationship, she felt that the word "dating" was not appropriate enough, so she added another sentence.

"Really? You guys are moving too fast!"

After receiving confirmation from her best friend, Mao Lilan looked at her in shock. From the happy smile on Suzuki Sonoko's face, she was sure that her best friend was not joking, and she couldn't help but feel a little envious.

After all, how long have Suzuki Sonoko and Hazuki known each other?

Strictly speaking, the two of them had been together for less than half a month, but they actually confirmed their relationship.

"Ye Yue-jun is a potential stock, so of course I have to grab him as soon as possible. If I'm slow, I'm afraid there won't be a place for me by Ye Yue-jun's side in the future!"

Suzuki Sonoko said nonchalantly, her eyes following the backs of Hazuki and Kasumigaoka Utaha as they disappeared at the classroom door.

"But I think that senior who came to see Ye Yuejun seems to have a special relationship with him?"

Of course, Mao Lilan had seen Kasumigaoka Utaha who came to see Ye Yue, just last night.

She could see that the two of them had a close relationship, and she couldn't help but wonder how her best friend could accept it?

"It's not convenient to talk about it here. I'll tell you slowly after school."

Suzuki Sonoko shook her head slightly. It was indeed inconvenient for her to reveal her current identity in the classroom. She planned to talk to Mouri Ran in detail after school.

"OK then."

The understanding Ran Mao Li did not ask any further questions after hearing what Suzuki Sonoko said.
