Chapter 677: Chapter 10 Plan to Assassinate Yin Wuque

Feng Xiao took the notebook that Yin Wuque had just pulled out, and then he produced a dagger.

"This dagger is one of the Quasi-curse spirit objects I possess."

"Wait, you have a Quasi-curse spirit object on you?"

The Department of Cursed Objects had added a new Quasi-curse spirit object, and he, an Executive Vice President, did not know?

If the Department of Cursed Objects had succeeded in creating a new Quasi-curse spirit object, shouldn’t it have been reported immediately? This was not something to be taken as lightly as an Evil Spirit Curse Object!

Before Yin Wuque could react, the dagger was thrust into the notebook!

However...the knife pierced the thin notebook cover a full five centimeters, yet the blade did not emerge from the back of the notebook!

"A Spatial Curse Item???"

This time, Yin Wuque was unnerved!

"One of the characteristics of a Quasi-curse spirit is that its spiritual body begins to become rule-based, and these rules often differ from the laws of physical reality."

"And the blade..."

Suddenly, the blade of the dagger seemed to intuitively penetrate through the location of Yin Wuque’s heart!

"Just like this."

Feng Xiao grasped the handle of the dagger and said, "The hospital has been studying Spatial Curse Items for years and still cannot mass-produce them... However, using the Quasi-curse spirit’s trait of creating duplicates is the best opportunity to mass-produce Spatial Curse Items. Oh... right, Director Yin, does it hurt now?"

At that moment, Yin Wuque’s expression was extremely distorted, almost reflexively wanting to kill Feng Xiao in front of him. But soon he realized that this was the Deputy Director of the Department of Cursed Objects! He couldn’t kill him!

"Director Feng, why don’t we just talk this out? If I, Yin, have offended you in any way, please just tell me. Why escalate things to this extent?"

"Director Yin is joking," Feng Xiao sneered inwardly, you’ve long been offensive to me, you just don’t know it, "I am merely showing you the new Quasi-curse spirit object made by the Department of Cursed Objects. Actually, I came here intending to submit it for review."

Yin Wuque almost clenched his teeth to pieces.

He thought, could it be because of Fei Jingyan? He had heard that Feng Xiao and Fei Jingyan did not get along, so he hadn’t thought much about it. Fei Jingyan’s deceased mother, Gong Cheng, was the former Executive Vice President before Han Ming, and Han Ming was somewhat a "senior brother" to Fei Jingyan. If it was because Fei Jingyan hated him for killing Han Ming, that actually made some sense, but why Feng Xiao? What did he have to gain by making things difficult for him?

"Director Feng, perhaps my attitude was not very good just now, I apologize to you. I have always held the Department of Cursed Objects in high regard. In a while, I will convene a meeting with your colleagues in the department to discuss the financial budget issues for the second half of the year..."

Yin Wuque had significant control over the hospital’s financial affairs, and a department could not operate without Spiritual Therapy Points, as medical equipment and maintenance of cursed objects were very expensive. Many Cursed Objects were consumable, disappearing after a patient used them.

Suddenly, Feng Xiao, gripping the handle of the dagger, spun it around!

"Director Yin, let me share the simplest piece of knowledge with you: the scariest thing in this world is not a disorderly murdering Evil Spirit, but an orderly insolvable curse."

Yin Wuque almost passed out from the pain, but he dared not move rashly.

"At first...after a person dies, the spirit of the living soul becomes an Apparition. As is well known, Apparitions are not regarded as Evil Spirits, although our hospital does have a Department of Apparitions, Apparitions actually pose almost no danger to human life, with the most severe being close to becoming a Resentful Spirit."

"Director Feng, talk is talk, but could you remove the knife..."

"Think about it...if a human wants to kill one of their own kind, there are no physical laws to stop or penalize them. Even if a person kills thousands through warfare, they are not punished or made to suffer retribution."

"However, ghosts are different. Apparitions themselves can’t kill people because they are limited by rules. The spirit of the deceased can only kill humans through curses. Otherwise, considering all the wrongful deaths throughout human history, how many of those politicians or war fanatics have been killed by ghosts? The vast majority of ghosts go directly to the Netherworld, and ninety-nine percent of those who remain are Apparitions. Honestly, the proportion of Evil Spirits among ghosts is even less than that of murderers among humans."

Yin Wuque faintly felt that Feng Xiao was making veiled accusations.

"Only when an Apparition gradually transforms into a curse does it become an Evil Spirit capable of killing. But even so, it is difficult for a Resentful Spirit to kill a person; the curse needs to accumulate over a long period. Above this, Fierce Ghosts and Ferocious Spirits are even rarer... This is exactly why the mainstream view in human society always denies the existence of ghosts."

"And this transformation process... is also a transition from evil...yes, as you said, from chaotic evil to lawful evil, and the number of people they can kill is also limited. For curses, Cursed Spirits are essentially Cursed Objects driven by rules."

Having said this, Feng Xiao suddenly withdrew the dagger.

"The rules of a curse are incredibly powerful, and the most powerful transcendent existence above all curses is the apartment on Heitu River Road in City K."

"You..." Yin Wuque looked at his chest as the wound began to heal rapidly.

"Whether it’s Cursed Spirits or Demons, they are all manifestations of the Curse Rules. The rules dictate that they can become undying beings, and we cannot fight against the rules." Feng Xiao looked at the blood on the dagger, "a Quasi-curse spirit itself is a half-rule, half-disorder Evil Spirit, so the question arises...why can you be implanted with such a Cursed Object and still survive, Director Yin?"
