Let the Strongest Evil Spirit Suffer in My Place

Xu Hanzhen is the most legitimate heir in his family. Born with Yin-Yang Eyes, he possesses the strongest spiritual power in the entire clan.

But he's timid, afraid of the dark, and horror movies are the one genre he can't stand.

Bearing the weight of his family's reputation, Xu Hanzhen has to travel from place to place to capture ghosts and vanquish demons.

Xu Hanzhen, in tears: I've had more than enough of this miserable fate...

-

Facing a vicious and savage Ghost King, Xu Hanzhen's legs go weak, and his eyes grow moist.

He wipes the cold sweat from his palms, chants an incantation, and summons the secret weapon passed down through his family:

a thousand-year-old evil spirit that still ranks first on the list of the most vicious and malicious entities.

A pallid hand tears through the air. Hawk-like eyes glow red, and black hair lifts despite the lack of wind.

A murderous aura swirls around the spirit, nearly solidifying into a tangible form.

With a casual gesture, it crushes the savage Ghost King, then gives Xu Hanzhen a sidelong glance.

"A few scraps like that are worth summoning me for?"

Xu Hanzhen chokes up. He can't hold back the tears brought on by sheer fright, and they roll down his cheeks, wetting his chin.

The evil spirit stares at his tears for a long moment, then suddenly turns and vanishes into thin air.

Xu Hanzhen is left alone, wiping his tears and whimpering, "Wah, why are you being so mean to me..."

-

When other ghost-hunting families hear that the Xu heir keeps a fierce evil spirit, they are full of disdain.

"Tch, with that Xu heir crying all the time, the Four Great Families will probably become the Three Great Families in a couple of years!"

"Seriously, with the way he is, it's a wonder he can even summon that one from the Xu family, the ghost that protects their clan."

"Haha, so what if he can summon it? Being able to control it is what counts. Give it a month, and that thing will probably devour him!"

But a few months later, it is they who find themselves on the brink of life and death. The Xu family's little heir, who can do nothing but cry, arrives with the terrifying evil spirit everyone fears, breaking through the demonic barrier and saving them.

A vicious ghost is beaten into a sorry state. Xu Hanzhen takes one look and is so frightened that tears fill his eyes. His voice trembles: "Wah, y-you, hurry up."

The supposedly savage evil spirit, notorious for devouring its master, is so enraged that its ghostly aura surges. With one strike, it crushes dozens of fearsome demons and ghosts.

Seeing that Xu Hanzhen is still crying, it glares icily at the ghost hunters it has just rescued and asks in a sinister voice, "Which of you was mean to him?!"

The ghost hunters: ...Wait, aren't you the meanest one here?
