American Exorcism Male God

The door to the hospital room was pushed open again, but it wasn't Xu Yi whom Cassie and her husband had been eagerly anticipating, it was Ailent.

Ailent walked up to Cassie and her husband, pulling out a business card and passing it over, "I forgot to introduce myself. This is my card."

It was a particularly stylish business card, made of thick paper, with pale gold floral designs embossed on a pure black background, looking delicate and mysterious.

Cassie and her husband were stunned, quickly accepting the card with both hands.

Ailent was secretly pleased, for the card, which he had spent a good amount of money on to have specifically designed, indeed had an impressive impact.

There wasn't much content on the business card, unlike those of street salesmen who seem to want to fill every inch of their cards with text.

But to Cassie and her husband, the business card of a true elite should be just like this, a few words that inform people of the extraordinary identity of the cardholder.

"Holy Flame Exorcism Studio." Cassie murmured softly.

"Exactly, my name is Ailent, and I am the agent of the boss. If there are any related matters, you can seek our cooperation!" Ailent's face showed a fittingly proud expression.

Cassie and Andrew exchanged glances, each seeing the shock in the other's eyes.

If before Xu Yi had told them he was an exorcist, they would have never believed it.

But having witnessed Xu Yi perform an exorcism, and now seeing the agent in front of them, they were thoroughly convinced of his identity.

"I never imagined Xu Yi would be so low-profile!" Cassie muttered softly.

Her eyes suddenly lit up; if Xu Yi was an exorcist, didn't that mean there was hope for Lisa?

Andrew was still a bit unsettled by Xu Yi's identity and, not wanting to lower his pride to ask the other party, he inquired softly, "I wonder what the price for an exorcism is?"

"It depends on the situation. Your case here is quite tricky, but since you know the boss, let's say thirty thousand US dollars. You know, this is already a very favorable price!" Ailent spoke softly.

Cassie and Andrew didn't speak, because they knew he wasn't exaggerating; the price was indeed very low.

Before seeking the help of Witch Zhang, they had inquired about the going rates for exorcisms. Some exorcists charged as much as fifty or a hundred thousand, while others simply wouldn't bother coming.

But even thirty thousand dollars was a heavy burden for their family.

If they paid it, they would be left with nothing for food, clothing, everyday expenses, and the children's school fees.

Cassie glared at Andrew fiercely, upset that he had asked about the price and now they were caught in a dilemma.

Lisa and Xu Yi had a special relationship from childhood; if they played their emotional card, the price would certainly be lower, or they might not need to pay at all.

Andrew also realized he had messed up, and he didn't say a word.

"Aunt Cassie, Uncle Andrew, sorry for the delay, I was preparing something outside," Xu Yi stepped into the hospital room. He hadn't lied, fearing that there wouldn't be enough fuel for the Exorcism Lighter, he had added another drop of blood essence.

Andrew looked at Xu Yi, hesitating to speak.

Cassie, on the other hand, couldn't care less, and blurted out, "Xu Yi, you and Lisa grew up together. Could the fee for the exorcism be…"

"Aunt Cassie, you're overthinking it," Xu Yi interrupted her, "My agent might not be aware of our relationship. How could I charge Aunt Cassie any money?"

Cassie's eyes instantly brightened, filled with gratitude, "Thank you so much, having a brother like you is Lisa's good fortune."

Xu Yi was older than Lisa, and when they were children, Lisa always called Xu Yi her brother.

Andrew was a bit embarrassed. Xu Yi's magnanimity made him feel petty, and he couldn't help but apologize, "I'm sorry, we misunderstood you just now."

Xu Yi waved his hand, indicating that they should not worry about it.

He hadn't lied to the other party; he never intended to take money from the start.

If he had taken the money, how awkward would it be to call them father-in-law and mother-in-law later?

Although he chose not to take the money, he also didn't want to be too eager, as that would make him seem cheap. Most importantly, only if the other party realized the cost of asking for his services would they be willing to cooperate.

As Lisa's parents, if they didn't cooperate during the exorcism, it could lead to terrible consequences.

"I see now, it was my oversight!" Ailent said apologetically.

Xu Yi felt that if Ailent didn't work as a real estate broker, he could have a promising future as an actor.

All the things that had just happened had been prearranged with Ailent.

Xu Yi took out a metal box with a lock from his pocket, wrapped in bark from fresh Pagoda Tree Wood.

Upon opening the box, there were five identical necklaces, each with a metal vial at the front, engraved with exquisite patterns.

Inside each metal vial was a piece of glass shard with traces of blood on it.

"There are still too few methods of exorcism!" Xu Yi lamented to himself, reluctant to use the mysterious blood unless absolutely necessary.

The previous method of carving vials from Pagoda Tree Wood was too troublesome, so he improved it slightly by using bark instead.

Having five glass shards together was also too wasteful; he distributed the shards, resulting in the creation of these five "Exorcism Artifacts."

Xu Yi put the exorcism necklace on Lisa and sighed deeply.

This necklace was intended to be a gift for Lisa in the first place; he had not expected an incident to occur just after he made it, before he had the chance to give it to her.

"Remember, you must never take this necklace off!" Xu Yi cautioned.

Cassie and Andrew nodded repeatedly, following Xu Yi's instructions obediently, the effect of all his earlier preparations now becoming evident.

A reporter from Spiritual Exploration Daily also stepped forward to give the "Magic Artifact" a close-up.

Xu Yi did not stop them, as he needed the newspaper to build his reputation to attract customers, and Ailent realized this too, feeling a thrill inside.

Xu Yi gave Cassie and Andrew Ailent's cellphone number, instructing them to contact him immediately if anything unusual happened to Lisa.

At that time, cell phones had just come out, and were heavy "bricks," as well as very expensive, Xu Yi didn't know where Ailent had gotten it from.

With everything in order, Xu Yi allowed himself a slight relief; now he could begin the search for a solution to the Evil Spirit.

"Where are we going now?" Ailent started the car and asked Xu Yi, who was sitting in the back seat.

"Back to Chinatown!" Xu Yi answered without hesitation.

He was well aware that the fire from the outer essence of blood alone would not be able to exorcise the Evil Spirit.

The mysterious blood on the glass shards might be possible, but he was unable to harness the power of the blood, relying only on the blood's "Passive Ability" to suppress the Evil Spirit.

If he attempted an exorcism by force, the Evil Spirit could go berserk, which could lead to a disastrous situation if both the fish and the net were destroyed.

What they needed to do now was find the Vessel of the Evil Spirit.

Once they found the Vessel, everything would be much easier. This was the approach many exorcists used when performing an exorcism.

The last time he was at the Funeral Parlor, he used this very method.
