Chapter 119 Death Wish

When did she appear?

How did she get here without making any sound?

Alex's heart thumped as cold sweat broke out.

This woman must be Jessica's mother.

But the woman was currently possessed by a vengeful spirit, and it was completely controlling her body.

Alex took a few steps back and started to perform the Thunderstorm Spell.

However, the vengeful spirit was getting too close to Alex, so he couldn't perform the spell in time.

Alex kept backing away from the vengeful spirit as it crept closer to him. Until....

His back was eventually against the door. At that moment, the spirit's sheet-white face was just inches away from Alex's face now.

"You better stop sticking your nose in someone else's business, punk. But if you refuse to stop, then I wouldn't mind sucking all your positive energy." It was a little girl's voice.

A voice like that paired with a poisonous, sly smirk on her face that sent chills down Alex's spine.

Alex was still feeling unsure when she hadn't talked earlier. Now that she spoke, he wasn't as anxious

anymore.

"Is that so? I'm curious about how you're going to suck out all of my positive energy," Alex said with a sinister smile.

"You must have a death wish!" A hint of malice flashed through the spirit's eyes as she reached out to strangle Alex. The spirit was unexpectedly strong. If it wasn't for Alex's great inner strength, he would've been strangled. to death.

Right at this moment, the Thunderstorm Spell that Alex had performed hit the spirit right in its stomach.

Crack!

A current flowed out from Alex's fingertips and hit the spirit that instant.

The spirit let out an excruciating wail. Then, she retreated as the current flowed through her body and finally hit on the wall behind her.

"Go to hell!" the spirit shrieked and pounced at Alex.

Alex was triumphant when his first hit was successful. Hence, he quickly performed another spell, and right when the spirit pounced at him, he cast yet another spell on her. "Arghhh!"

The spirit cried out in pain again. Her body instantly flew up into the air at the impact of the Thunderstorm Spell. After that, she landed about five or six meters away and rolled down the stairs. Alex seemed to be drained of energy, too, as his entire body was sore and weak.

His cultivation in geomancy wasn't enough. Most of his energy had been drained when he repeatedly cast a few spells in one go.

On a more positive note, Alex felt fortunate that he had stopped himself just in time as he would've fainted if he did not.

He regained some energy after taking in a deep breath. I really shouldn't perform a whole bunch of spells so casually in the future.

I might suffer permanent damage if I'm not careful.

He took a glance at the stairway before making his way down.

Sh*t! Did the woman die from the shock of the Thunderstorm Spell?

Alex's heart skipped a beat when he saw that Jessica's mother had passed out and was bleeding profusely.

"You punk! How dare you hurt me? Just you wait! I'll make you regret it!"

Just then, Alex saw a little girl in a red shirt glaring at him in the mist under the stairway.

The little girl looked about seven or eight. There was a bloody hole between her brows, and blood was flowing down her cheeks.

Before Alex could say anything, the girl disappeared into the mist.

Soon enough, the mist dissipated.

Alex didn't have the time to care about the little spirit as he quickly went to check on Jessica's mother's injuries.

He had cast the Thunderstorm Spell twice previously. Even though the spirit was finally out of her body, it seemed like Jessica's mother was severely injured from the shock of the spell. However, to his relief, the woman seemed to still be breathing, but she was in mortal danger as the Spiritual Light within her appeared dim.

When Baron and the rest saw that the mist had dissipated, they rushed in and stared at Alex in shock.
