American Exorcism Male God

The blue garden cart slowly drove into Carrie High School, and a crowd of teachers and students gathered on the sports field, whispering amongst themselves, starting to discuss what the so-called "mysterious gift" could be.

The school's PA system had announced early in the morning that teachers and students who had attended last night's banquet should assemble on the sports field for the distribution of a mysterious gift.

The garden cart stopped next to the sports field, but nobody paid much attention, as it was common for the garden cart to enter the campus to water the trees.

However, their attention was quickly caught by an exceedingly handsome man who leaped off from the driver's seat, scaled up to the rear rack with fluid grace, and unhooked a high-pressure water gun, aiming it at them.

"Surprise!"

Xu Yi smiled faintly at the crowd and then decisively turned on the switch of the high-pressure water gun.

A liquid gushed out from the barrel of the gun, red in color and with a pungent stench—it was sheep's blood.

The blood sprayed out, drenching everyone on the sports field in a shower of gore, as people screamed and scattered.

Xu Yi laughed wildly as he waved the high-pressure water gun, targeting whoever ran first, leaving many knocked over by the force of the blood-stained water.

As the storage tank of the garden cart gradually emptied, Xu Yi looked down at a group of "bloodied people" with satisfaction, nodded, and hung the water gun back on its hook before dashing back to the driver's seat.

"Is this really... alright?" Carrie hesitated in her choice of words from the passenger seat.

"It's fine, just a little prank on them—they're sure to understand," he reassured.

With a light chuckle, Xu Yi started the garden cart and drove away with confidence, glancing at Carrie who seemed to have something to say but hesitated, and declared loudly, "As my student, you should go ahead and do whatever you want without worry—if there's any issue, I'll sort it out!"

Xu Yi certainly had the backbone to say this; he was among the few standing at the top of the Pyramid in this world.

Carrie felt a warm sensation in her heart, knowing Xu Yi was standing up for her—a feeling she had never experienced before in her life.

Xu Yi glanced at the Favorability panel and couldn't help but smile when he saw that Carrie's Favorability score had unknowingly reached "92".

"Oh, right, a belated birthday present!" Xu Yi took out an invitation-like card from his pocket and handed it to Carrie.

"What is this?" Carrie asked curiously as she accepted it, and instinctively read aloud after opening it, "Isotope Institute admission application?"

As an Honorary Professor at Isotope, Xu Yi had one admission spot he could use to recommend someone to Isotope Institute every year.

The reason why there was only one spot was understandable to him, given that the academy was funded by various governments, which naturally prioritized their own people.

"It's time you changed schools, and with it, your living environment."

Turning his head to look at Carrie, Xu Yi spoke gently, "I've heard about your mother's incident; think of your past life as a nightmare. Now that you've woken up, what awaits you is the brilliant sunshine."

Carrie's eyes instantly reddened.

"Next stop, destination Boston!"

Xu Yi spun the steering wheel around, but suddenly his brows furrowed in pain, and he unconsciously covered his right upper arm with his hand.

The arm that had been gnawed by the Sugar Plum Fairy had healed around the wound, but for some reason, a small central area remained necrotic.

He had tried everything: injecting potions, cutting away the flesh, even tearing the arm off completely.

However, after the arm had healed, the rotten flesh would soon reappear, and it would occasionally cause sharp pains.

"This wound doesn't seem to be affecting my body so much as it does my soul!"

Xu Yi's brows were tightly furrowed, "And moreover... it doesn't seem as simple as just a wound."

...

Isotope Institute.

After surveying his "domain", Xu Yi nodded frequently, quite pleased with what he saw.

True to a facility jointly funded by the governments of various countries, the offices provided to them, the Honorary Professors, were indulgently inhumane in their extravagance, even the floors were made of precious Alchemy materials.

Upon his return to Boston, he took Carrie to Isotope Institute early in the morning to register, and now he was in his office.

Standing by the window, he looked out to see the shadows of eaves and trees with uniformed students coming and going, exuding a lively vitality.

Isotope Institute was about to commence a new school term, and the academy, once quiet, was now bustling with activity.

At that moment, the office door was flung open with a hint of anger. It slammed against the wall with a loud "bang," and a figure strode in.

Xu Yi furrowed his brows, his face turned stern, and he took on the authority of an Honorary Professor, determined to reprimand the "lunatic" who had barged in.

He turned around and hurried toward the individual, picked up the coffee cup from the desk, and held it up high… then offered it forward, "I just made some coffee, would you like to try it?"

Yukeni glanced coldly at Xu Yi, "Now you deign to come back?"

"I ran into some issues on the road, so I got held up," Xu Yi looked at the box in Yukeni's hand, his eyes lighting up instantly, "Is this possibly?"

Yukeni sat down on the genuine leather chair, looking around, "Your office, why does it seem a bit larger than mine?"

"Illusion, all illusions!"

Of course, Xu Yi wouldn't say that as the city's "own kin," the Boston's upper echelons had specifically reserved the largest office with the best view for him.

Yukeni, the ice queen with a secondary school syndrome, titled as the "Dragon Empress" amongst exorcists, had also joined the Institute and become Xu Yi's colleague.

As for Yukeni joining the Isotope Institute, Xu Yi wasn't surprised in the slightest.

To Yukeni, who wouldn't forget to grab a windfall even when fleeing, how could she turn down the generous benefits of Isotope, let alone resist the temptation of a Mythic-Level Holy Artifact?

Three weeks prior, Yukeni had called Xu Yi, saying she needed his help with something, but Xu Yi, due to a series of events, had stood her up.

Yukeni began drinking the coffee from the table, and Xu Yi took the opportunity to take the box from her hands.

The box wasn't locked, which was very much in line with Yukeni's style.

"Do you want my treasure? If you want it, I'll give you everything, come and take it! I've put all my treasure in the box!"

There was no doubt, this was the true thought of the chuuni girl, Yukeni.

The lid of the box was lifted, revealing a portion of a dark golden spear lying quietly inside, and Xu Yi's face showed an excited expression.

With the debris in front of him, he had finally assembled the Spear of Longinus!

Some time ago, Yukeni had heard that Xu Yi was looking for the fragments of the Spear of Longinus, stated she had a lead, and asked Xu Yi to wait for good news. Unexpectedly, Yukeni had indeed found it. Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire

"We are old friends after all. Why bring a gift when you visit? That's really strange," he said.

Xu Yi smoothly closed the box and, with practiced movements, picked it up by the handle and started to walk away with it.

Unfortunately, he had only taken two steps before Yukeni grabbed the box, her cold gaze fixed on Xu Yi.

"Is there something you want? Let's see if I can get it. Let's make a trade," Xu Yi said without changing his expression, handing the box back to her.

"Have you heard anything about the 'mentorship selection'?" Yukeni, instead, brought up a different topic.

Xu Yi nodded, as he certainly knew something about it.

The five titled exorcists were like the Five Peaks Sword Sect; if students wanted to learn real skills, they needed to pay respects to a sect first.

"Don't you want the fragments of the Spear of Longinus? Just help me beat that old witch Hekaseth during the mentorship selection, and I'll give you the fragments!" Yukeni's voice was tinged with anger.@@novelbin@@

"Do you know Hekaseth?" Xu Yi asked, slightly startled.

Apart from Xu Yi and Yukeni, the Isotope Institute had invited five titled exorcists including the Deadly Poison Witch Hekaseth, as well as Priest Arturo graced by God.

As for the last one, the candidate had been decided, but there were some minor issues yet to be settled.

That individual, touted as the strongest titled exorcist in history, would not only become an Honorary Professor but also assume the role of the principal.

In reality, students only had four "mentors" to choose from, as the principal was not among them.

Yukeni nodded unwillingly.

Xu Yi could tell that Yukeni didn't just know Hekaseth, she likely had a history with her. Every time Hekaseth was mentioned, Yukeni's eyes blazed with anger.

"You should seek help from someone more capable!"

Xu Yi pondered for a long while, reluctantly tearing his gaze away from the relic. It wasn't that he didn't want to assemble the Spear of Longinus, but because the task was truly difficult to handle.
