The night was as dark as ink. Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha stood in front of a seemingly ordinary high-rise building. The exterior of the building appeared somewhat dilapidated, with occasional gusts of cold wind blowing through the cracks in the windows, sending shivers down one's spine. Lin Xiaoxiao looked around, as if trying to find something in the silence of the night.
"This location seems even more eerie than the old apartment we visited last time," Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but comment, her voice tinged with some dissatisfaction.
Gu Sha had a calm face, and his sharp gaze swept around as if trying to capture any abnormalities in the air. "Our purpose in coming here is not to comment on the scenery. Are you ready?" His voice was deep and powerful, carrying unquestionable authority.
Lin Xiaoxiao adjusted her backpack, ensuring that all the props inside were ready, and nodded, "Of course, I'm ready anytime."
They entered the building together, and the situation inside was even worse than it appeared from the outside. The floor was covered in dust and debris, and the paint on the walls had peeled off, revealing the dilapidation and abandonment of the place.
Gu sha took out a small inspiration detector, and as they ventured further into the building, the indicator lights on the detector began to flash rapidly. Gu sha furrowed his brow slightly, as this was clearly a signal of powerful spiritual energy ahead.
"It looks like we've come to the right place," Gu Sha said in a low voice, while signaling to Lin Xiaoxiao to stay alert.
They continued forward until they reached what seemed to be a former meeting room. Some old documents and broken glass cups were scattered on the long table in the center of the room, and a sinister atmosphere pervaded the air.
Suddenly, a blurry figure quickly passed through the other end of the room and disappeared into the opposite wall. Lin Xiaoxiao widened her eyes in surprise and instinctively grabbed Gu sha's arm, "Did you see that?"
Gu sha nodded, his expression becoming more serious, "I saw it. It looks like our opponent is not simple. Are you ready?"
Lin Xiaoxiao swallowed hard, feeling a bit uneasy but still nodded firmly, "I'm ready at any time."
They cautiously approached the wall, and the detector in Gu sha's hand was flashing wildly. When they reached the wall, suddenly, the blurry black shadow appeared again, this time it didn't escape, but formed a huge vortex, as if to suck them in.
Lin Xiaoxiao quickly took out a sealing charm from her backpack and shouted, "Take this!" Then she threw the sealing charm towards the center of the vortex.
However, unexpectedly, as soon as the sealing charm touched the vortex, it was as if it was being absorbed by a powerful force, instantly burning to ashes and having no effect on the vortex.
"How could this happen?" Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't believe it. This was the first time she encountered a situation where the sealing charm was ineffective.
Gu Sha's face also showed a rare seriousness. He took a deep breath and spoke calmly, "It seems that our opponent this time is very powerful. But we can't give up. Is there any other way?"
Lin Xiaoxiao bit her lip tightly, pondered for a moment, and then seemed to think of something. She took out a small bottle from her backpack and said, "Let's try this. This is a purification liquid I obtained from a Taoist priest before. It is said to be very effective against some special spirits."
Gu sha nodded, urging her to act quickly. Lin Xiaoxiao carefully opened the bottle cap and sprinkled the purification liquid towards the center of the vortex.
This time, the effect was obvious. When the purification liquid touched the vortex, it emitted a dazzling light, and the dark shadow in the vortex screamed, gradually shrinking and finally disappearing.
"We did it!" Lin Xiaoxiao exclaimed excitedly, apparently very excited to be able to repel a powerful opponent.
Gu sha let out a deep breath and a rare smile appeared on his face: "Not bad, you did well this time."
However, as they were preparing to leave the place, the disappearing figure suddenly reappeared, but this time its form was clearer, revealing the image of a man wearing ancient clothing. His face bore a strange smile, and his voice was cold and somewhat mocking: "Huh, do you think you can stop me just like that? I am Mo Chen. You were able to defeat my servant this time, but we will meet again soon."
Upon hearing the name "Mo Chen," Gu sha shuddered, while Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know the person, she understood that they had encountered not an ordinary spirit this time, but a powerful and scheming enemy.
As the image of Mo Chen gradually dissipated with these words, all that was left was the echo of his sinister laughter in the empty room.
Lin Xiaoxiao appeared somewhat uneasy: "Gu sha, who is this Mo Chen? What is his purpose? Why is he targeting us?"
Gu sha fell silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and spoke firmly: "Mo Chen was once a very influential soul in the Underworld. Later, for some reasons, he was exiled. Now it seems that he is plotting some grand scheme, and this plan poses a huge threat to us, and even to the entire Yin and Yang realms."
Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed with determination: "Then we must stop him, no matter what his plan is."
Gu sha nodded, with a resolute look in his eyes: "Yes, we will find out his plan and stop him. But now the most important thing is that we need to be more careful. Mo Chen's power far exceeds our imagination. This is just the beginning."
They looked at each other, their eyes flashing with an unyielding light. The events of this night were not just an ordinary mission, but the beginning of a crisis. Gu sha and Lin Xiaoxiao both understood that opposing Mo Chen would bring unprecedented danger, but no matter what, they would not back down.
As the night deepened, the two of them left the building, but they both knew in their hearts that this was just the beginning of a long battle.
After leaving the old warehouse, Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha walked slowly along the quiet street, their hearts unusually heavy. Faced with Mo Chen's provocation, they must be fully prepared because this struggle may be even more difficult than they imagine.
"It seems that in the future, we will have to deal with more than just some scattered evil spirits," Gu sha's tone was full of worry.
"That Mo Chen, who exactly is he and what kind of formidable person is he? What does he want to do?" Lin Xiaoxiao also looked puzzled.
Gu Sha pondered for a moment and said, "No matter what his current identity is, his plan definitely won't have any good results. We must find him and stop his plan."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, her eyes firm: "That's right, no matter what, we cannot let him disrupt the balance of the Yin and Yang realms. Gu sha, we must be extra careful and stop Mo Chen's conspiracy."
Gu sha looked at Lin Xiaoxiao seriously: "Don't worry, with us here, his plan will never succeed."
Mo Chen's appearance not only made their mission more complicated, but also made their relationship become closer.
The night breeze gently blew, and Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped, turned to Gu Sha, and looked at him with a curious and puzzled expression, "Gu Sha, do we really have a chance to defeat Mo Chen? He seems powerful, like a being from another level."
Gu sha smiled slightly, stopped in his tracks, and faced Lin Xiaoxiao with a calm yet confident tone: "Lin Xiaoxiao, have you forgotten? We have faced many powerful enemies in the past, and each time, didn't we overcome them together?"
Lin Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, seeming to be half skeptical of Gu sha's words: "That was in the past. This time our opponent is Mo Chen, and from what you've said before, he is not an ordinary powerful foe."
Gu sha sighed lightly and revealed a hint of composure in his eyes: "Indeed, Mo Chen is different from any enemy we have encountered in the past. His power, wisdom, and methods are far beyond the ordinary. But that does not mean we have no chance of winning. What's important is how we respond, how we use our advantages."
"Advantages?" Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Yes, our advantage," Gu sha said slowly, "your intuition, courage, and decisiveness; my experience, combat skills, and understanding of the Underworld's rules. These are our advantages. More importantly, we have each other, and that is our greatest advantage."
After listening, Lin Xiaoxiao's face revealed a smile, and the unease in her eyes gradually dissipated. "Gu sha, the way you put it, I really do feel a bit more confident."
Gu sha smiled slightly and suddenly reached out to gently pat Lin Xiaoxiao's head: "You should have confidence, Xiao Xiao, there's nothing that can make you afraid."
Lin Xiaoxiao immediately made a dissatisfied expression and waved away Gu sha's hand: "Hey, I'm not a child, stop patting my head all the time, okay?"
Gu sha withdrew his hand and a smile flashed in his eyes: "Alright, no more clapping. So, what should we do now?"
"First, we need more information. We know very little about Mo Chen. We need to understand his past, his weaknesses, and his possible plans," Lin Xiaoxiao said, pondering.
"Correct." Gu sha nodded. "We'll start tomorrow, by going through the files from the Underworld and contacting the spirits we can reach."
"Okay!" Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, then flashed a mischievous smile. "Gu sha, should we make a bet to see who can find useful information first?"
Gu sha smiled lightly and said, "Are you just looking for an excuse to earn some pocket money? Well, I accept this challenge."
The two looked at each other and smiled, their relaxed conversation drifting in the night breeze. Faced with an unknown predicament, they chose to move forward together, unafraid of any difficulties.
It's late at night, Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha gradually drift away from each other while teasing each other, their figures blending into the night.
