Chapter 189 The old die first, then the young.

"Did Bart and Jani expose themselves?"

After thinking about it, Cao Kun also felt it was unlikely.

With the four of them communicating, cooperating, and rehearsing their statements beforehand, even an ordinary person like Robert Logan, no matter how capable, would have no chance of discovering it.

Unless, he possesses powerful supernatural abilities.

Just like when Cao Kun found the traitor in Sophia's manor.

Even so, Cao Kun never imagined that everyone in that manor was Mary Shaw's informant.

Cao Kun, a powerful cultivator, hadn't discovered it, let alone Robert Logan, an ordinary person.

Even the most talented ordinary people have limitations.

What could be the reason?

Cao Kun couldn't figure it out, so he could only put the matter aside for the time being and remind himself to be more careful recently.

Rumble...

With the arrival of summer, thunderstorms also follow.

It was a stormy day.

Dark clouds covered the sky, lightning flashed through the clouds, and then came a deafening clap of thunder.

Cao Kun stood in the courtyard, looking at the dense clouds overhead, and his sense of crisis intensified.

Just then, Cao Kun's phone rang; it was an unknown number.

After the call was connected, a middle-aged woman's voice came through the phone.

Her tone betrayed barely concealed anxiety, tension, and fear: "Excuse me, are you Master Cao Kun?"

After receiving confirmation, she said, "Master Cao Kun, I need your help. My son is being hunted by demons."

Are you so sure?

Cao Kun was somewhat surprised to hear this.

This was the first time he had ever been so certain that he had encountered the devil.

The woman said, "Because my son has developed supernatural powers."

Cao Kun: "What exactly happened?"

The voice on the other end of the phone said, "My son's body is being forcibly controlled by a force, making him do things he doesn't want to do."

Upon hearing this, Cao Kun knew that it was most likely a case of possession by a ghost.

Cao Kun asked, "Is your son conscious?"

On the other end of the phone: "He's awake, but his body is out of his control; it's as if another force is trying to take over his body."

He is possessed by a ghost, but has not yet fully gained control of his body.

Cao Kun made a judgment.

In that case, this ghost probably doesn't have much spiritual power.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so pathetic.

Cao Kun: "I charge very high fees."

"Go ahead," the woman on the phone said, seemingly unconcerned.

It seems like another one who isn't short of money.

Indeed, Cao Kun is famous as an exorcist, but he is also famous for charging exorbitant fees.

Anyone who dares to call him probably knows that he charges a high price.

Cao Kun originally intended to quote $1 million.

But I'm also worried about unforeseen circumstances.

After a brief consideration, Cao Kun said, "The minimum is one million US dollars. We'll discuss the exact amount after I understand the whole situation."

"No problem, would you like to come by yourself, or should I have someone pick you up?" The other end readily agreed.

Cao Kun: "Give me an address, and I'll go there myself."

Shortly after hanging up the phone, Cao Kun received a message with the address of an affluent community.

Anyway, it will take time for Bart to get the list.

It would be good to take on a commission during this time.

You can also earn some experience points.

About half an hour later, Cao Kun arrived at the wealthy community and parked his car outside a villa.

After getting out of the car and looking around, I realized that this family seemed to be financially secure.

Cao Kun dialed the number: "I'm at your door."

The electric gate opened, and Cao Kun drove the car inside.

Cao Kun couldn't find a garage, so he had to park his car in an open-air parking space.

Before the car had even stopped, a couple came out to greet us with umbrellas.

The woman was around 40 years old, wearing a dress from a luxury brand. She was quite tall and had very delicate features.

However, Western women age faster, and wrinkles are still more noticeable on their faces.

Nevertheless, her looks are still stunning.

The man wore an expensive shirt, had thick hair, and wore frameless glasses, giving him a refined and scholarly appearance. He was also quite handsome.

Upon seeing Cao Kun, the two looked him over, their surprise mixed with anxiety: "Master Cao Kun, you've finally arrived."

After Cao Kun got out of the car, the woman approached him and held the umbrella over his head.

Cao Kun grunted in agreement and followed the two into the house.

Cao Kun avoided the rain, but the woman got soaked. She didn't care and was instead excited: "Great! Master Cao Kun, you're here! Peter is saved!"

Cao Kun looked around. The house was decorated very luxuriously, but he didn't see his son.

He asked, "Where is Peter?"

Woman: "He's asleep in his room."

Cao Kun nodded slightly.

During the day, ghosts are afraid of yang energy and are therefore weaker, so they may be a bit quieter.

Peter, the host who had been working hard all night, could finally relax and catch up on some sleep.

Then, at night, the ghost that possessed him continued to fight for control of his body.

Cao Kun wasn't in a hurry and began to look around the room.

The house looks like it was only recently renovated; many things are still quite new.

In some places, photos of this family are displayed.

Cao Kun saw that, in addition to the couple's photo, there was a boy, a girl, and an older woman.

The boy's photos gradually increased in age, eventually settling on his appearance at around seventeen or eighteen years old.

The girl's age remained around ten years old.

But both the boy and the girl are quite good-looking, even better-looking than the couple.

Even the old woman had extremely beautiful features; she must have been quite stunning when she was young.

This family is all incredibly good-looking.

Moreover, each generation is more attractive than the last.

If this continues and is constantly improved, this family will surely produce several beauty pageant winners.

Cao Kun: "Let's go see Peter."

The couple accompanied Cao Kun upstairs to a bedroom.

After knocking on the door, the wife turned the doorknob and pushed the door open.

The bedroom is very large.

Cao Kun turned a corner that resembled an entrance hall before he saw the bed inside the room.

On the bed, a person was lying with their back to him, fast asleep.

Cao Kun indeed sensed some yin energy emanating from him.

The yin energy wasn't faint, but it wasn't too strong either. Just as he had deduced, this was a not-so-powerful ghost.

His wife asked worriedly, "Master Cao Kun, what do we need to do?"

Cao Kun: "Your son's condition is a bit serious. Let's go downstairs and talk first."

The three of them went downstairs, and Cao Kun asked, "I haven't asked your names yet."

Wife: "Just call me Annie."

Then she introduced her husband: "His name is Paul."

Cao Kun nodded nonchalantly and asked, "Is your daughter in school?"

The couple's expressions darkened when they heard this: "Charlie had an accident some time ago and has passed away."

"Is that so?" Cao Kun looked regretful. "That's really a pity."

Cao Kun then asked, "Who is the older woman in the photo?"

Anne: "That's my mother. She passed away recently."

Cao Kun was taken aback: "I hope you can get rid of your suffering and step into the sunshine as soon as possible."

Anne: "That's exactly what we've been hoping for, Master Cao Kun. You can definitely help us, right?"

“Of course.” Cao Kun stood up and said, “However, the problem your son is facing is a bit serious. I need to prepare a powerful tool. I’ll come back tonight.”
