Chapter 550: Chapter 550 Mentholated Balm and Godly Oil

"No, this thing is a coincidence, I guess. The five of us didn’t die; we all owe our lives to Nie Ying’s blessing."

"Heh, that’s right, my wife is no ordinary person," Yang Kai said with a smile on his face.

Nie Ying rolled her eyes in annoyance and said to you, "We better hurry up and seal the Zero Boundary Entrance. If other people come into contact with it, the consequences are unimaginable."

"Mm."

You nodded, stepped back two paces, allowing your restless heart to slowly settle, and also closed your eyes.

At that moment, Xian Qianling came over with Rang Hongfei and Huang Ke.

"What are you guys doing here? Is the issue resolved?" Xian Qianling had yet to speak when the clueless Huang Ke had already asked.

"Shh." Seeing that no one was paying them any attention, Rang Hongfei quickly pulled Huang Ke to the side.

Although Huang Ke was a bit anxious, she wasn’t a fool. Seeing even their team leader was silent, she naturally shut up and turned to look at the focus of everyone’s attention—you.

Your eyes were still closed, but at that moment, a breeze had begun to stir in the previously semi-sealed space.

The wind, appearing from nowhere, naturally entwined around your body and also gently ruffled your not-too-long hair.

"Scenic Sect, open."

Unlike the usual forceful command, your voice was soft and gentle, just like the wind flowing in the room.

The wind carried a tranquil scent, and each person had a different experience upon smelling it.

One thought of the hillside back home, crawling with azaleas, with an old tree of Osmanthus fragrans to the side, beneath which stood a kind and benevolent elder; another envisioned an endless grassland with herds of cattle and sheep and girls wielding little leather whips; and yet another saw the vast azure sea where one looks up to the sky and down to the waters, two people hand in hand, braving the wind and waves...

The you seen by everyone began to change, with a five-colored radiance spiraling upwards, intertwining and spinning around your body; simultaneously, the entire storeroom was filled with an intense yet pleasant aroma, causing everyone to take a deep breath involuntarily. This scent came straight from nature, from purity, and it fundamentally brought a sense of tranquility and joy to people.

Huang Ke and Rang Hongfei looked at you with astonished and horrified eyes.

After the last case, where Rang Hongfei had been a big help and was then brought back to the criminal police force by Xian Qianling, he and Huang Ke had inquired about you from many sources since their last encounter. What they found out was nothing but one-sided praise and admiration, and there were many versions of the story, with the most unreliable one claiming that you were a descendant of a Heavenly Master, specializing in capturing the evil ghosts of the world.

The two didn’t believe this, but this time they just happened to be brought here by Xian Qianling, gaining the opportunity for a close encounter with you, so they naturally wanted to observe more closely. Since entering this storeroom, their mouths hadn’t closed once.

The aroma in the storeroom had accumulated to a certain degree, and you in the eyes of the people were now covered by a five-colored brilliance. Wei Shuxian and the others knew that your concentration had reached a critical point. He immediately turned to Xian Qianling by his side and said, "Police Officer Xie, let’s retreat. Old Shu is about to make a big move."

Xian Qianling nodded and led Rang Hongfei and Huang Ke to the door.

They had just steadied themselves when they heard a sudden shout, "All Forms of Sen Luo, seal the heavens!"

Your eyes suddenly snapped open, and within each pupil, the Sen Luo Curse Mark and the Mysterious Seal flashed simultaneously!

The two seals no longer rotated as usual but emanated a light of colors that didn’t exist on any palette!

It seemed red, purple, blue, green, white, and yet black!

At that moment, everyone inside the room went deaf; they couldn’t hear a single sound, and despite having their eyes wide open, they couldn’t see anything!

Three seconds later, everything was calm again, and by that time, you were leaning against the wall, clutching your forehead and saying, "Damn it, that move really isn’t meant for humans. Just like that, my body feels drained. I’m definitely not using it casually again."

Liao Yong came over to support you, while Yang Kai grinned and said to you as you propped yourself up by the waist, "Hehe, Old Shu, I think you need to eat some tonic for strengthening the body and kidneys, like Rehmannia pills, goji berries, maca, and stuff."

"Get lost!"

Seeing you lift your foot to kick someone, Yang Kai quickly scampered off to one side.

"Are you alright?"

Xian Qianling stood in front of you, her face showing a touch of concern.

"I’m fine, I just need to sleep it off back in the dorm."

She nodded and then asked, "The situation with the building has been resolved, but what about those who were already infected by the evil energy?"

You turned to look at Zong Wangyue, who cheerfully said to Xian Qianling, "Our Boss had a far-sighted plan in place early on."

Saying this, Zong Wangyue took out a small glass bottle from his pocket: "This is it!"

Huang Ke squinted at it, reading the text on the bottle’s packaging aloud: "Henghe Brand Indian God Oil, solving your lifetime issues."

Zong Wangyue turned to look and quickly tucked it away in his chest, saying sheepishly, "Oops, sorry, that was the wrong one."

Huang Ke turned to Rang Hongfei and asked, "What is Indian God Oil?"

"Don’t sweat the small stuff, this is the real deal." Zong Wangyue then took out a bottle of mentholated balm, checked it over, and on confirming it, said to everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen, this isn’t just any mentholated balm. This is a bottle of..."

Zong Wangyue had only gotten that far when Xian Qianling snatched the balm from his hand, opened the cap and took a sniff, then immediately said to Zong Wangyue, "This is just a very ordinary bottle of mentholated balm."

You laughed and said, "Indeed it is, because the source of the evil energy has been cleansed, the people infected just need to take a bath with mugwort leaves and then apply some mentholated balm."

"It’s that simple?" Huang Ke seemed a bit surprised, for she had seen two female infectees, and the sight was truly horrifying.

"Young lady, you don’t understand. It might seem simple to you, but in reality, the root cause of the infection has been cleared by our Boss. It’s like cutting the root off a tree, it will wither quickly. Moreover, the human body naturally possesses a certain amount of yang energy. The stronger the person’s body, the faster it will dispel the evil energy," Zong Wangyue posed as an expert and began to expound pretentiously.

Ignoring Zong Wangyue, Xian Qianling said to you, "If that’s the case, then you should go back and rest soon."

"Yeah."

After passing Xian Qianling, the six of you walked out of the building.

Seeing you emerge, Lei Jianhua waved his hand, got out of the car, and came over: "Chief, is the matter resolved?"

"It’s been resolved," you said to Lei Jianhua with a smile, "This time it’s thanks to you. Otherwise, the commission we received wouldn’t even cover the cost of repairing the walls."

Lei Jianhua scratched his head, giving a shy smile: "It’s all thanks to our Chief’s proper arrangements. I was just assisting."

Zong Wangyue bumped Lei Jianhua with his watermelon-sized buttocks and said with a grin, "Any more modesty would just be pride, Little Lei Zi. From now on, you’re truly one of us, a bona fide member of the Supernatural Detective
