Chen Xiang’s icy gaze pierced through the black fog, he looked at the monsters who was slowly combining with the sea of fog. Black patterns gradually appeared all over his body. The patterns weaved into arms on Chen Xiang’s body, Chen Xiang’s power seemed to originate from the souls who had been tortured and killed by the hospital director. The endless hands reached out to hold the key. With deep hatred inside them, they pushed the key deep into the altar.

Bloody gashes appeared in the black fog, then a horrible-smelling rain of blood rained down from the sky. The hospital director used his power, dragged the black sky and charged at Chen Xiang without regard for his own safety. Doctor Gao, Zhang Ya and the painter moved to stop him at the same time. With regards to Chi, the Demon God had slipped away from the hospital the moment Chen Xiang showed up.

Four Demon Gods attacked the altar at the same time, demolishing all of the hospital director’s past memory. When the last shred of malicious memory was grounded into nothingness, the old altar shattered, exposing an old black and white photo. Inside the photo, there was a woman in patient’s garb, there was a doctor in white coat standing behind her. This would appear to be the hospital director’s parents. The four Demon Gods focused their attack on the photo. The old photo started to surface with black blood, morphing into a heart that was punctured and scarred. The hospital director had planted his heart inside this photo, this was also his biggest secret.

The key, black hair, chains pierced through the ugly heart. The fusing of the hospital director and the black fog stopped. His figure was slowly made clear among the black fog. Blood rain was pouring, the hospital director’s body was fading. The disappearance was irrevocable, no matter how many curse or negative emotion he tried to consume, he could not stop the disintegration. Screams and wails echoed above the cursed hospital, the hospital director lowered his head to look at his own chest. There was an empty spot there, and flesh and blood kept falling off.

Being surrounded by 4 Demon Gods, the hospital director never anticipated this day would come. Like a madman, he tried to repair his body but it was futile. Be it the curse or despair, none of the negative emotion was enough to fill up the emptiness in his heart. Looking around, the mountain of bodies was now a mess of guts, the broken bodies of Patient 5 littered the area and Chi had slipped away without notice. The whole cursed hospital was cleared of patients and doctors, in the end, the hospital director was the only one left. The demon that spread despair finally had the taste of despair.

There were no dying words, there was no final interaction, the few Demon Gods did not even give the hospital director the chance to take a breath. As if in tandem, the four Demon Gods attacked the hospital director from 4 sides. Losing his heart, his body failing him, his power slipping away, the endless curse that made up the hospital director’s body started to consume its host. All of the souls he had trapped, all of the spirits he had tormented, they had found the chance to take their revenge, they bit at him crazily. The hospital director’s white coat was torn apart, exposing the bloody patient’s garb inside. He tried his best to resist but the ending had already been written for the man with the broken heart. The 4 Demon Gods did not waste time with him. This was a battle of life and death, they won’t stop until the enemy was vanquished.

His body turned immaterial and blood leaked away from his body. The cursed flowers on the hospital director’s body also started to wither. “Looks like I have lost, but no matter as long as there are still despair and pain in this world, the black fog will be going nowhere and the curse will continue to spread in another form.” While he could still control his body, the hospital director glanced at Chen Ge. “How come even though we are both evil spirits, you can come to have everything?” The hospital director’s body grew in size, “I should have killed you 20 years ago when I had the chance.”

Carrying his last curse and malice, the hospital director’s consciousness faded away but not before he imploded his own body. The curse that was trapped inside his body was all released at the same time. They started to escape in all directions, there was no rhyme or rhythm to their action. No one knew how many evil spirits the hospital director had trapped both inside and outside the door. Before his consciousness disappeared, the malice inside the hospital director’s body exploded.

“Stop the evil spirits and curse! He still wants to make use of the black fog!” Chen Xiang had seen this 20 years ago. The other 3 Demon Gods immediately responded to his call. Chen Xiang though walked towards the altar that had the hospital director’s heart inside it. He studied the old altar, he tried to place his own heart inside the altar to stop the rampaging souls, but perhaps he was himself an evil spirit, the effect was not positive. These evil spirits had carried with them the remaining power of the hospital director, they were very hard to deal with.

“The hospital director’s heart represents chaos, tragedy and curse, only a heart completely opposite to that can stop the spirits.” Chen Xiang’s eyes swept the humans and spectres around him. They were cruel and savage, none of them fitted his requirement.

“Let me do it.” Chen Ge walked to stand beside Chen Xiang, “I have a family, he has a heart that is meant for protection.”

“A family?” Chen Xiang regarded Chen Ge for a long time before he nodded. Standing before the altar, Chen Ge closed his eyes. He communicated with the heart Xu Yin left inside his mind and then placed Xu Yin’s heart inside the altar. Xu Yin’s heart appeared because he wanted to protect others, that was extremely rare among Red Spectre, in fact one could say that was completely in contradiction to the essence of a Red Spectre. When Xu Yin’s heart appeared inside the altar, the evil spirits started to weaken.

Doctor Gao, Zhang Ya and the painter used this opportunity to round up the spirits and gather them around the altar. These evil spirits possessed a large amount of curse and negative emotion but at the same time, they carried the dangerous power of the hospital director. Being surrounded by so many evil spirits was something extremely painful, but it placed no impact on Xu Yin’s heart, he had gotten used to pain a long time ago. The 4 Demon Gods lent their aid. Xu Yin’s heart started to beat. As he suppressed the evil spirits, he was also absorbing the hospital director’s remaining power.

As one after another blood vessels extended outwards, a handsome young man appeared inside the altar. Being given a second chance at life, he waded out from the deepest abyss of the blood sea. When he opened his eyes again, he saw Chen Ge standing before him. The melancholy in his eyes had disappeared. He grabbed Chen Ge’s hands that were extended towards him. Wearing the red shirt that was painted with endless evil spirits, he stood up from the broken altar. The old god had died, and the person who was reborn from the altar was Xu Yin.

All the curse and spirits had been suppressed. The red city also spread to the cursed hospital’s vicinity. The broken cursed hospital was bound by blood vessels. It was slowly dragged into the red city, being assimilated into it. The last trace of the hospital director had been fully wiped out. Crossing life and death, two cities, the history that spanned centuries finally reached its end. The blood chased away the black fog. The red city had consumed the cursed hospital so Chen Ge’s group was currently inside the territory of the blood city.

“It’s over.” Standing on its ruin, the Red Spectres gathered around Chen Ge. When Chen Ge chose to sacrifice himself to help them find their memory, they had already decided to stay by Chen Ge’s side forever. Because they had already experienced death once, so sometimes spectres and ghosts knew how to appreciate the things that they had more than living humans. Zhang Ya, Xu Yin and the painter walked to Chen Ge’s side. The red color lit up the sky behind the door.

Doctor Gao looked at the ruined altar silently, who knew what was on his mind. Chen Xiang though kept his eyes on Chen Ge. His cold and emotionless eyes slowly softened. “How did you manage to accomplish all these? Kindness has taken away everything, you are supposed to be nothing but a normal human.”

“I have never considered what should I do and winning or losing could never be further from my mind, I just felt compelled to keep pushing myself forward and it has led me to this place.” After knowing all the truth, the fragmented memories in Chen Ge’s mind slowly pieced together.
