"We're enough with just the few of us!" Yan Kongyue raised an eyebrow at Feng Xing.
"I can handle this on my own!"
"Can we watch from the side?"
"Yeah, I’ve never seen a ghost-catching before!"
"Alright, but you all need to hold back. Make sure not to rush in!"
"Hehehe, we'll try our best to control ourselves!"
Lin Qian's concerns were not unfounded. They underwent such intense training every day precisely so they could step forward to protect the people in times of danger. If you suddenly told them not to rush in, their instincts would surely rebel.
However, if you all went down, you wouldn't be able to see the water ghosts! It shouldn't be a big problem. Lin Lang was also quite worried; after all, catching ghosts wasn't their area of expertise.
"Do you want to see?" Yan Kongyue didn't miss the fleeting regret in their eyes.
"Of course!"
Lin Qian activated Ling Yan for them!
Under the bridge, the river was wide, and the surface was so still that not even a ripple disturbed it; it seemed as if the flowing water had frozen solid.
"Wow, there are so many people in the water?" A few armed police officers stared at the eerily calm surface in astonishment.
"Those aren't people!"
"Right, right, they're not people!"
Feng Xing pointed below, "There's a big one down there!"
"Yeah, I see it!"
"What do we do? According to Heibai Wuchang, we’ll definitely have to run into several hundred water ghosts. We need to take them out in one move. Any ideas?" Yan Kongyue frowned as he looked at the water's surface.
The water ghosts weren't particularly powerful; they were just overwhelming in number. If one slipped away due to carelessness, all their efforts would be for nothing.
"The big ones are mine; you can take care of the small ones!"
"You’re quite clever!"
"Hurry up! Look, they've retreated far away; they must have discovered us!" Huo Jingyu exclaimed, anxiously stamping his feet.
"Step aside!" Yan Kongyue commanded as he approached the riverbank. His lips moved slightly, and a ball of golden light appeared in his palm. The light grew from small to large, and at its brightest moment, Yan Kongyue waved his hand. The golden light transformed into countless golden particles that scattered across the water's surface.
As those golden particles fell into the water, they instantly covered the entire river. Ordinary people couldn't see it, but they could. At that moment, Cui He turned into a golden river, and the water ghosts floating within transformed into black Gui Qi.
Yan Kongyue waved his hand to collect all the Gui Qi, but in the next second, the river began to surge. The water that should have flowed downstream was now violently crashing against both banks, with waves rising higher and higher as if a ferocious beast lurking beneath the surface had awakened.
At the same time, the air around Feng Xing grew colder and increasingly eerie. The silent aura of death spread around them, and the sound of cars on the bridge faded into the distance, as if time itself was slowly coming to a halt.
"Lin Qian, take them back!" Yan Kongyue's gaze remained fixed on the river, his voice icy and calm.
"Yes!" Lin Qian and the others understood that Yan Kongyue was worried about Feng Xing's aura harming the Armed Police Brothers. Even though they were protected by righteous energy, Feng Xing was after all the Mingjie Prince, destined to rule over the underworld—a force far beyond ordinary demons and spirits.
Feng Xing wouldn’t harm them directly, but that overwhelming power from the underworld was something they couldn’t ignore.
After retreating nearly a hundred meters, Feng Xing's aura surged even more violently. The stronger his presence became, the more tumultuous the river churned. Finally, a figure suddenly shot up from the center of the river.
Before anyone could clearly see what it was, that figure flashed and appeared right in front of Feng Xing.
