From Earthbound Spirit to Tokyo Evil

Sure enough, Natasha soon contacted him through the amulet, hoping to talk in person.

"No new clues?" She looked very calm. If Xia Chuan hadn't known her thoughts in advance, he might have been confused by her acting skills.

"They should have temporarily evacuated." Xia Chuan still appeared in front of her as the old man. This avoided a lot of unnecessary trouble, such as someone using the honey trap without knowing one's own strength. "They should not have any new actions in the short term. Thank you very much for the help of Cheka. It's a pleasure to cooperate with you this time. You can..."

"Does the Skeleton Society have any other ideas?" Natasha was immediately intimidated by his attitude. "It's a rare opportunity for Vera to come to Tokyo. Don't you have anything else you want to investigate?"

This sentence temporarily piqued Xia Chuan's interest and suddenly reminded him of the Styx Society which had disappeared for some time.

Perhaps it was because the things they had done recently were so big that they scared these guys and they haven't taken any action for more than a month.

In Xia Chuan's eyes, the fighting power of these guys was actually just so-so. The only reason he couldn't deal with these guys was that they hid too well and he couldn't find them.

Now he already knows that there is a group of people inside Akasaka who are secretly cooperating with the Styx Society and providing them with information.

Although Baba Hao claimed that these people did not know the specific whereabouts of the Styx Society, if they were used, could they be dug out with the help of the power of psychics?

Chapter 210 Please Take Her Away

The Styx Society, which Xia Chuan once regarded as his biggest enemy, is no longer within his sight. Suddenly realizing this, Xia Chuan felt a little sad.

But the reality is that, a long time ago, the only reason the Styx Club was able to survive was that they hid well so that Akasaka and Natsukawa could not find them. All the members of the Styx Club who were exposed to them, except for the guy with the knife, were dead.

At the beginning, Akasaka had to use artillery fire, but at this point, in fact, the power of the shrine maidens and the shikigami is enough to deal with them.

Did I already possess such a strong power?

Xia Chuan looked at the wolf lady in front of him who could not hide her nervousness, and suddenly had more ideas.

"If we still need Miss Vera's help, what price will we have to pay?" he asked.

"We are all friends now, so of course we can talk about anything," Natasha replied immediately.

"Miss Vera seems to have a lot of problems with her body. How about this, every time she helps us identify a clue, I will cure one of her lesions. Is that okay?"

"Of course!" Natasha agreed subconsciously, and only realized her mistake after she finished speaking. She quickly added: "We Cheka have always been very generous to our friends!"

"Then please give us some more time to prepare." Xia Chuan said.

He left immediately, but at the same time he turned on the eavesdropping mode and eavesdropped on the conversation between the werewolf and the psychic.

"Will things really go so smoothly? He took the initiative to propose such conditions before you even opened your mouth?" The psychic sounded a little uneasy.

"Yeah, I didn't expect it to be so smooth!" But Natasha didn't hear her worry at all.

The preparations did not take up too much of Natsukawa's time. Most of what he needed was already in Akasaka's hands. All he needed to do was talk to Kuroda Koji and wait for Baba Hiroshi and others to take action with his tacit consent.

"Mr. Kaisei, please try to avoid doing such things, otherwise..." Kuroda Koji's voice sounded more and more helpless, but for Natsukawa, this was the result he expected to see.

Binding him to his own chariot, binding the entire Akasaka to his own chariot, there is no more convenient means than letting them break through their bottom line little by little and accumulating the exchanges between the two sides little by little.

#####

"What is this?" The werewolf expressed considerable doubt about the first thing Xia Chuan took out.

Why does it look so much like the rocks that can be found everywhere on the seashore?

"It's the favorite stone of a certain aquatic monster in the Styx." Xia Chuan answered calmly. "It is said that he was hatched under this stone."

"Can you guys figure this out?" Natasha shook her head repeatedly.

"It was just a coincidence." Xia Chuan replied.

The ceremony soon began.

There was no difference from the previous times. Xia Chuan stood beside the psychic, paying close attention to her situation and the situation of the crystal ball.

But after a long time, the medium whispered to Natasha: "I didn't see anything."

"Did they get the wrong stone?"

"That should be correct. Otherwise, I should be able to see the events related to this stone. The person who once owned this stone is either dead or has left Tokyo."

Xia Chuan looked at the expressions of the two carefully, because they didn't know that Xia Chuan had mastered Lucia in such a short time. They didn't use any secret codes or anything like that, and the expressions on their faces didn't look fake.

So one of the things about the prophecy props that has been proven is that distance can actually hinder the prophecy props from getting results.

Miss Werewolf quickly relayed the psychic's words to Xia Chuan. Xia Chuan nodded, indicating that he didn't care about the result, and began to treat a lesion in the psychic's body as agreed.

This stone was actually a reef that Paul loved to hold in the fish tank. After it was put into the sea, the fish tank was originally intended to be used to raise mantis shrimps, but it was directly broken by it. The things in the fish tank were then taken by Chiyu Moriyama to the corner of the room.

As they fled, the explosion in the house destroyed nearly all trace of their presence, but the stone remained.

"Thank you very much." The effects of the treatment were obvious to the tortured psychic, which made her even more in awe of Xia Chuan's power.

There is no way to cure this backlash in the whole of Lucia, but it is easy for him. How powerful is his strength?

"Well, next." Xia Chuan then took out a magatama that was deliberately made into a complicated pattern.

He had made this using the Soul Jade just an hour ago, and it had not touched anyone else's hands, which was enough to ensure that the only person it could point to was himself.

He needed to personally experience what it felt like to be spied on by someone using a prophecy tool, and he also needed to confirm with his own eyes whether the so-called backlash actually existed.

The psychic may face danger, but for him, this is something that must be confirmed.

He didn't know how big the gap between his power and the medium's was. In order to ensure that the ceremony could proceed normally, he deliberately stuffed a soul jade into the belly of the crow used as a sacrifice, and at the same time moved closer to the medium's body to ensure that he could save her life if the backlash really occurred.

He really still needed to rely on her strength to find the Styx Society, and it was not in his interest to let her die here.

The psychic, however, was completely unaware of Xia Chuan's plan and began to perform the ritual as usual.

She was not so reckless in her usual actions. Before each ceremony, she would repeatedly confirm the origin of the medium and weigh the possible directions of the questions she was going to ask.

For others, it is just a matter of minutes, but for every psychic, a mistake will most likely bring more than ten years of painful suffering. Compared with the pain brought by the backlash, death is not a very terrible consequence.

Sadly, they were not even qualified to commit suicide, because the most important task of those who took care of her was to ensure that she was alive. Under such attention, even if she wanted to commit suicide, she would not have the opportunity to do so.

But her desire and fear for Xia Chuan's power made her lose her usual caution for a moment. The possibility of recovery was right in front of her. How could she dare to confirm these things repeatedly as she did in the past and question the authenticity of the medium that Xia Chuan brought?

She even had a vague idea that she couldn't make public. If I really suffered backlash because of the medium provided by the skeleton, as long as I didn't die on the spot, perhaps I could actually get a chance to recover?

A force began to vaguely appear around, making people subconsciously begin to feel irritated and uneasy. Unlike usual, it became more condensed and more oppressive. When it began to revolve around the magic circle, even the werewolf felt a certain degree of threat.

"Haizhi, what you brought..." She blurted out subconsciously. At this moment, the crow used as a sacrifice was suddenly swallowed up by a powerful force and turned into nothing. At the same time, the magatama that served as a medium began to emit a strange light.

Xia Chuan suddenly felt like someone was spying on him. It was an extremely strange feeling. The magic circle was right in front of him and everything was under his control, but the feeling of being spied on was like a thorn in his back. He felt extremely uncomfortable and had a strong desire to turn around and find out who was spying on him from behind.

This process was extremely short. Almost at the same time when he had this feeling, the crystal ball in front of the medium suddenly made a slight sound and exploded from the inside, turning into powder all over the table. The medium screamed, his eyes exploded, and blood flowed from his mouth, nose, and ears at the same time. He fainted immediately!

The werewolf screamed. Xia Chuan had already grabbed the medium's body and was transferring spiritual energy directly into her body.

Almost all of her cerebral blood vessels had exploded, and large amounts of blood were seeping into various parts of her brain. Not only that, many nerves and blood vessels inside her body had atrophied and necrotic, becoming fibrotic. It was as if some force was rapidly taking away her vitality and turning her into a whole piece of wood.

If Xia Chuan had not intervened in time, she would have died completely in just two or three seconds, but Xia Chuan had used his spiritual power to protect the most important brain and heart, dissolving the power that was raging in her body, and then began to rebuild the nerves and blood vessels in her body.

The Cheka agent who was responsible for protecting and taking care of her finally reacted at this time, but this situation was not something they could decide. The werewolf realized that Xia Chuan was trying to save the psychic's life, and she swallowed the accusation hard. She immediately waved to the others and ordered in a low voice: "Go to the surrounding area immediately to be on guard, and don't let anyone interfere here!"

Is the difference between my strength and hers so great?

Xia Chuan felt helpless while treating her. Under the current circumstances, it became more difficult to keep her in her original condition.

He thought about it for a moment and decided not to do the unnecessary and boring thing of deliberately leaving lesions in her body, but to take action directly in the most convenient way. So, in the eyes of the werewolf, the old man in front of him, whose face was covered by a hat and a curtain and whose appearance and expression could never be seen, grabbed the medium's hand. Some kind of light that she could not understand suddenly emanated from the medium's body, and even made her have a strong desire to snatch it away.

After an unknown amount of time, the light suddenly dissipated and reason returned to her body. The old man in front of her had already loosened his grip, letting the medium lie on the floor of the shrine.

The next moment, the werewolf lady saw the medium's face clearly, and the sanity that had just returned to her body suddenly disappeared again, making her scream in surprise.

Immediately, an agent rushed in. Natasha finally regained her sanity at this time: "Everyone get out! No one is allowed to come in!"

The woman lying on the ground was no longer the ugly and scary woman, but a woman about thirty years old, with perfect skin and appearance, full of intellectual beauty.

The dry and sparse hair became thick and shiny, and the hunched and twisted body became round and stretched. If it were not for the memory of her appearance as a teenager, even a werewolf would not have been able to recognize who the woman lying on the ground was.

For a moment, looking at the psychic who was lying on the ground, frowning slightly, as if still in pain, and looking at the crystal ball that had shattered into powder and could never be restored, Miss Werewolf's mind fell into complete chaos.

"Natasha." Xia Chuan had to wake her up actively.

"Hmm?" Miss Werewolf finally came to her senses, and hurried over to help the medium up, calling her name in a low voice, which finally made her wake up.

"Natasha?" The medium slowly opened his eyes, saw her concerned face, and couldn't help but call her name in a low voice.

The next moment, they both exclaimed in unison.

"Can you (I) see it?!"

Tears of joy immediately welled up uncontrollably, and the two of them hugged each other and cried, which made Xia Chuan, who was standing next to them, feel a little helpless, but also a little bit of vague satisfaction.

A few minutes later, the two women finally came to terms with this astonishing result that was beyond their expectations.

The psychic had no idea how to thank Xiachuan or how to repay him for his gift, and the werewolf had to consider another issue in addition to the same considerations.

"Mr. Haizhai, can I ask you for one more favor?" she suddenly said.

Her solemn expression made Xia Chuan a little curious.

"What do you think."

"If you can, please take Vera away!"

"What did you say?" This turn was so sudden that Xia Chuan was stunned.

The psychic didn't know what she was talking about, but the expression on her face and Xia Chuan's reaction allowed her to guess something.

"Natasha, what are you talking about?!" she asked anxiously.

"Mr. Haizhai, this is not Cheka's suggestion, but my personal request. She has lost her crystal ball, but as a psychic, she must still be able to play a role for the Skeleton Society. Please take her away and let her escape this tragic fate!" Miss Werewolf's words were somewhat incoherent, but Xia Chuan still understood what she meant.

"Do you understand the consequences of doing this?" he then asked.

"I will report that she died accidentally due to the backlash while making a prediction. Anyway, the crystal ball is broken, so I have to bear the responsibility as well. I might as well be more thorough." Natasha said. "At most, they will just reprimand me and put me in solitary confinement to make up for my crime. They can't kill me. They have already lost the precious medium and prophecy props. They can't do something like cutting off their own hands and feet."

"Do you trust us so much?" Xia Chuan's curiosity was completely aroused.

"The reputation of the Skeleton Society is not that bad, and even if it is worse, it can't be worse than letting her go back, right?" The werewolf sighed as he looked at his friend who had completely changed. "She has finally been reborn, and no one should be able to recognize her. Can I take her back with my own hands and let her experience those terrible things again, and gradually turn back into the half-human, half-ghost, half-dead person she was before? She has done so much for the Cheka, it's time to let her go free."

"Natasha!" the medium cried anxiously.

"You can't justify your story." Xia Chuan said. "Will those people outside testify for you?"

"I will find a way to deal with them. I will find a way to make them believe." Natasha said.

"Natasha, don't even think about it..." the psychic said loudly, but was suddenly knocked unconscious by the werewolf and held in his arms.

"Mr. Haibi, please take her away. You gave her a chance to be reborn, so please... please don't..." She didn't know what to say, and finally lowered her head. "Please."

Chapter 211: Frightening Freedom

If Xia Chuan had not eavesdropped on the conversation between Miss Werewolf and the psychic, and had not known how unruly the werewolf's personality was, he would definitely have begun to suspect whether this woman was a spy who had infiltrated the Cheka, and wanted to use this method to cause the Skeleton Society to become enemies with the Cheka.

But her previous series of unreliable behaviors made Xia Chuan understand that this was indeed her true inner thoughts at the moment.

"Why?" he couldn't help but ask. "Why take such a big risk for her?"

"I owe her this. Anyway, Mr. Haizhai, please..."

Xia Chuan began to think about it.

The crystal ball was indeed damaged, but the sand table he took from the Watcher was just right for use.

He had seen the role of a medium, and for him, having a medium around him could indeed bring a lot of convenience. In the future, the Watchers would certainly continue to send people to sneak into Tokyo, and there would definitely be other mediums bringing prophecy props. From this perspective, the presence of this medium could almost be said to be a necessity for him to detect the enemy in time and counterattack immediately.

But it was precisely because of this necessity that he hesitated.

Is this really not a Cheka plot?

The werewolf himself might have been kept in the dark, but what about the medium? Why would they send such an unreliable guy to take charge of such an important task? Could it be that they had already calculated that this result would definitely happen given the relationship between the two?

But how could they know that he would definitely treat her injuries? How could they ensure that things would develop to this point? Or was there someone who would push things to this point?

At a certain moment, Xia Chuan suddenly felt annoyed and wanted to kill all the Cheka guys here.

But he eventually calmed down.

If this is a bait, a trap, then the intention behind it must be to allow the psychic to infiltrate the Skeleton Society and explore their secrets.

Why couldn't he just turn around and swallow the bait, and swallow the fisherman too?

This psychic is not fake. As long as she can be used, she will be valuable enough to Xia Chuan.

"It can be considered, but you have to gain our trust. Otherwise, we cannot afford the risks that this matter may bring."
