Chapter 23: Catching the Evil Spirit
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Layla felt like she had just escaped death by the skin of her teeth. She stayed quietly in the crook of Andre’s arm, which made her feel safe.
When she had been close to death, Layla felt that her anger towards Andre previously was simply childish and laughable. At the last moment, she had many thoughts in her mind, but the strongest was why Andre had yet to appear, as well as the deep longing for her father and mother in C City.
After experiencing this incident, Layla felt that she had become much more clear-headed. Even her earlier resentment towards Andre’s collision into her had dissipated a lot.
Although the evil spirit was forced back by Andre’s aura, it was unwilling to let go of its prey like this. It still tailed behind Layla from afar.
When he saw Layla staring in a particular direction that was completely empty when he looked over at it, Andre knew that the evil spirit had not left.
Andre put Layla in the wheelchair and whispered something in her ear. Layla looked at Andre in disbelief.
Andre nodded at her. For some reason, Layla decided to trust Andre unconditionally at that moment.
Looking as though he didn’t care, Andre walked over to the window where Layla had been staring just now. He nodded at Layla, indicating that she could start.
“At six o’clock, about two meters!” Layla shouted after receiving the cue.
The evil spirit had originally been floating quietly a short distance from Layla, planning to wait for an opportunity before making its move.
Upon seeing Andre walk over, the evil spirit thought that even if it was helpless towards this person, he could not see itself either.
Therefore, the evil spirit wasn’t concerned.
However, it had not expected that the man would make an agile grab towards it in the next moment!
The evil spirit’s first reaction was to defend itself. The flames around its body instantly surged and formed a shield in front of it.
The evil spirit’s reaction was not slow. If this was an ordinary person, they would definitely not be able to penetrate this layer of defense with their own strength.
However, it had forgotten that Andre was not an ordinary person. He was not afraid of the evil spirit’s green flames at all!
Without stopping, Andre’s hands passed through that defensive shield directly.
The moment the green fire shield shattered, he firmly gripped onto the top of the skull very accurately.
Andre’s brows knitted slightly. Although he could not see it, he could feel that he had caught something rather different in his hand.
A sticky liquid was wrapped around a hard shell, and Andre could feel the thing in his hand constantly struggling to break free from his control.
Upon seeing the evil spirit be restrained by Andre, Layla, who had been on the edge by the side, hurried over in her wheelchair.
When Andre had told Layla about this plan just now, she had still thought that it would not succeed.
She had not expected Andre to be so awesome as to be able to catch the evil spirit immediately!
Clutching onto him, the green flames conjured by the evil spirit gnawed on and bit Andre’s hands. It even turned into small knives to cut his wrists.
Layla watched from the side with a racing heart. However, Andre was completely unmoved. He did not seem to feel anything.
No matter how hard the evil spirit tried, Andre’s hands were like the strongest iron pincers, trapping it firmly.
Upon seeing this scene, Layla’s feelings of nervousness and worry finally settled.
The evil spirit thought of all methods and exhausted all means, but it could not break free from Andre’s restraint at all.
By the side, Layla watched the evil spirit’s various attempts quietly. She waited calmly, not anxious at all.
After struggling for a long time, the evil spirit felt so spent. It finally admitted the fact that it was impossible to break free with its ability.
“Hey… You sly prey! Get this stinky man to let go of me quickly!”
The evil spirit had no other choice. It knew that Layla could see it, so it bellowed at Layla, who had been watching by the side like it was a good show.
Ha ha ha… A victorious smile appeared on Layla’s face as she drawled leisurely, “That’s where you’re wrong. This man is cold, heartless, and acts superior. He has a lot of flaws and shortcomings, but he doesn’t stink at all.”
