Exorcist's Self-Cultivation

Thud, thud, thud...

Urgent footsteps sounded.

At the bedroom door, the guests who were at the party rushed over after hearing the screams.

Screaming and exclamations followed.

"My goodness, Mrs. Victor, Miss Alex, what on earth happened here?"

"This is terrible, call an ambulance quickly."

Hearing this, Alex also turned her head and saw Victor's face, which was horribly disfigured.

However, her mental fortitude was strong, and a flash of pity crossed her face. Seeing Du Wei supporting Victor and unable to use his hands, she took out her cell phone and dialed the emergency number.

"Hello, is this Officer Tom? A terrible incident has occurred at Goliath Winery, someone is severely injured, please come quickly, and bring an ambulance."

"Okay, Miss Alex, please wait, we're sending out the police right now."

...

Meanwhile, Du Wei had already reverted from his Evil Spirit Transformation, and he laid the agonizingly howling Victor, who couldn't speak, flat on the bed.

Then, frowning at the others, he said, "Mrs. Victor has lost too much blood, she might go into shock before the ambulance arrives. Can anyone find some gauze? Let's try to stop the bleeding first."

The servant who followed up immediately called out, "There is gauze in the winery, I'll go get it now."

Having said that, he hurried off.

The guests also came in, unable to help asking, "Can someone explain what's happened here? Why did such a horrible thing suddenly happen to Mrs. Victor after you all went upstairs?"

In their eyes, Victor at this moment looked as if a psycho had sliced off part of the soft tissue on her face, utterly cruel to an extreme.

Some women even came running with their eyes closed, simply unable to bear the sight.

Du Wei looked at these people but didn't know how to explain.

Most ordinary people are unaware of the existence of Evil Spirits.

Just like him at the start, he never believed in them until he saw an Evil Spirit.

Only after truly encountering an Evil Spirit or witnessing one would someone shatter their existing worldview and accept the presence of such entities.

Moreover, in his previous conversations with Officer Tom, they had been controlling the situation to prevent most people from knowing about these matters.

Victor was just an exception.

Even if he told everyone it was the work of an Evil Spirit and that he, in fact, was an Exorcist, it wouldn't provide much help.

It would only make things more complicated.

Having Alex aware of his identity was enough.

So he simply said, "Officer Tom will explain it to you when he arrives. As for why Mrs. Victor ended up like this, I'm not very clear."

The others were skeptical, but most looked at him with wary eyes, "That's just your side of the story, and it seems like you're not on the guest list for this party, are you?"

Du Wei frowned, and looked coldly at the person who had spoken; the man was a tall Caucasian youth, handsome yet with an air of defiance.

He was about to explain himself when Alex uttered a cold snort, "Is there a problem with my boyfriend joining me at the party?"

As her voice fell,

silence enveloped the surroundings.

The attention of those present shifted directly from the dying Victor to Du Wei and Alex.

Everyone's expressions were quite a sight to see.

The Caucasian youth who had just spoken immediately bowed his head in apology, "I'm sorry, Miss Alex, I was not aware that he was your boyfriend. Please forgive my rudeness."

Alex replied with an icy tone, "So please shut your mouth! The police will provide an explanation."

Her tone was unapologetic and even contained a reprimanding note.

But none of the people present felt any dissatisfaction.

In other words, Alex was the true aristocratic young lady, and they... were not even close.

Having said that, Alex turned her head to look at Du Wei, her azure blue eyes carrying a hint of complexity and shyness before she pretended to calm down.

She had long regarded Du Wei as her boyfriend in her heart, but their relationship had never been formally acknowledged.

Yet, for some reason, at that moment, she suddenly felt...

That after learning the man she loved was actually someone who dealt with Evil Spirits, part of a special group, she inexplicably felt that the distance between her and Du Wei was actually growing more and more distant.

If she didn't become more resolute, it was very likely that after a while, they would move in a direction she couldn't accept.

But Du Wei only gave her one glance, and did not speak.

Staying in a rational and calm state, the best choice right then was to not explain.

Suddenly...

Servants rushed in with gauze and some medical supplies. Find exclusive stories on empire

"Sir, here are the items you requested."

"Okay, leave the rest to me."

Du Wei took the medical supplies from the servants' hands with practiced ease, checked them, and started to dress the wound and stop the bleeding.

Throughout this process, Victor kept screaming, flailing her arms desperately as she struggled violently in pain.

And Alex, despite her discomfort, stepped forward to help.

...

More than ten minutes later.

About a dozen police cars and ambulances arrived.

The one leading them was none other than Du Wei's old acquaintance, Officer Tom.

Upon reaching the second floor, and at the sight of Du Wei, Officer Tom's face turned exceptionally interesting!

"Fuck!"

Unable to help himself, he cursed and quickly walked over to Du Wei, asking in a low voice, "What's the situation here? Is it that kind of thing again?"

Du Wei replied softly, "Something even more terrifying than that thing, but I've dealt with part of it, and the other part has already left."

Tom asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Du Wei shook his head, "The specifics might trace back to the last century, a hundred and two hundred years ago, but I am also not clear right now, just deal with it as you see fit."

Tom, biting his lip reluctantly, said, "Alright, but I always feel like you're like a reaper, wherever you appear, something terrible is definitely going to happen."

Du Wei said indifferently, "Because I am exactly the person who solves such matters."

Tom sneered, "Then please, don't come to these upper-class gatherings anymore, if someone dies, I simply can't explain it to their families behind them, you understand?"

While saying this, he added irritably, "God bless, don't let me encounter you again anytime soon, I've only been to the Red Light District once this month, I'm so tired..."

Hearing this, Du Wei could only nod and say, "I'll try my best..."

However, he was thinking that tonight he would have to deal with people from the Veda Sect, and he would have to inform Officer Tom at that time.

After all, Officer Tom was a very reliable acquaintance.

After Officer Tom became aware of the special nature of the incident, he immediately had the medical staff take Victor, who had fallen into a coma, onto the ambulance.

Then.

He coughed once, organized his language, and said to the others, "Ladies and gentlemen, please keep this matter confidential, as it may be related to a very dangerous serial killer case."

Someone questioned, "A serial killer? Why is there no news about it in New York?"

Officer Tom raised an eyebrow and responded, "Because I have been tracking this serial killer. I am very familiar with this method of operation, please do not question my expertise."

"Okay... Now please cooperate with me for some routine statements."
