Realm of the Night God

Chapter 632: Request

Looking at Master Wu's embarrassed expression, Yang Haoran's face broke into a smile.

"Don't worry, Old Wu, no matter what's bothering you, I'll help you. But please wait a moment, I need to make a phone call to my friend first."

Master Wu's face was filled with gratitude, and he repeatedly expressed his thanks. Yang Haoran then took out his mobile phone and dialed Xu Meijing's number, detailing the spirit master's affairs and reminding her to be cautious, suggesting that she prepare in advance.

While talking to Xu Meijing, Yang Haoran stopped Master Wu from trying to leave, as he only needed to discuss matters related to the spirit master, and there was no need for Master Wu to leave. If Xu Meijing were to mention something confidential, he could always ask Master Wu to leave later.

Xu Meijing didn't say anything else, as the information Yang Haoran had told her had already shocked her, and she didn't have the mind to discuss other matters.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Haoran turned his attention back to Master Wu.

"What do you need my help with, Old Wu? Just say it."

Yang Haoran said this, and Master Wu didn't hesitate, directly stating his request.

"I want to ask Boss to place a Death Mark Seal on my family members."

This was something Yang Haoran had brought up with Master Wu before, but at the time, Master Wu had refused, not wanting his family to enter this circle.Back then, Master Wu had insisted on entering this circle to try his luck in his later years, even though he knew it would be dangerous. As for why he didn't want his family to enter this circle, it was because he didn't want them to take risks, and once they entered, they would be at the mercy of others, and one misstep could lead to disaster. He thought it was better for his family to live ordinary lives, as they had enough wealth and could live well in this world.

There was also an important reason: Master Wu didn't fully trust Yang Haoran at the time, and if he had his family members all receive the Death Mark Seal, they would all be under Yang Haoran's control. While Yang Haoran might not harm his family, Master Wu couldn't take that risk.

It was because of these reasons that Master Wu had refused Yang Haoran's offer back then.

Now, he had changed his mind, feeling that his family needed some power to be safer. Tonight's events were a good example - if his family had some power, they wouldn't be helpless.

Moreover, the world was about to change, and no one knew what would happen in the future. Ordinary people would become even more vulnerable, and in the eyes of monsters and ghosts, they would be no different from domesticated animals, at the mercy of others.

On the other hand, non-ordinary people might not have a high survival rate, but at least they wouldn't be completely powerless against monsters and ghosts.

Most importantly, over the years, Master Wu had gained a deeper understanding of Yang Haoran, and although Yang Haoran was a self-interested person, he was still quite good to his own people. Compared to when they first met, Master Wu now trusted Yang Haoran more, believing that even if he had his family members receive the Death Mark Seal, Yang Haoran wouldn't use them as leverage against him.

Besides, as a Burial Master, Yang Haoran didn't need to use leverage, as there was no benefit to be gained.

So, considering these factors, Master Wu had made up his mind to ask Yang Haoran to place the Death Mark Seal on his family members.

Regarding Master Wu's request, Yang Haoran only thought for a moment before understanding his intentions.

"No problem, we can wait for the other Night Watch members to arrive before making arrangements. Now, I have time. Bring your family members to the study room, and I'll place the Death Mark Seal on them."

Yang Haoran readily agreed, and Master Wu was initially overjoyed, but then noticed the bloodstains on Yang Haoran's body and thought of an important question.

"Boss, I see you're injured quite badly. Why don't we wait until your injuries are healed before placing the Death Mark Seal on my family members?"

Yang Haoran smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Although my injuries are not light, my condition has improved somewhat after taking the elixir. Moreover, we don't know when chaos will erupt, so it's better to prepare in advance and have them receive the Death Mark Seal sooner rather than later."

Yang Haoran persisted, and Master Wu didn't refuse again because Yang Haoran's words made sense.

"Then I'll trouble you, Boss. I'll bring them to see you now."

Master Wu turned to leave, but Yang Haoran stopped him.

"Let me accompany you downstairs. They're injured and it's not convenient for them to move around, so let's not bother them anymore."

Yang Haoran smiled and stood up, leading Master Wu to the living room.

In the living room, Eldest son Wu and the others were still waiting, except for Second son Wu, who looked a bit impatient. The brothers' wounds had been treated by Feng Xiao, and their condition had improved significantly. Their pale faces had regained some color.

However, the two brothers were just ordinary people, and it was unrealistic to expect them to recover quickly from their injuries.

Yang Haoran and Master Wu's arrival immediately drew the attention of Eldest son Wu and the others, except for Second son Wu, who didn't stand up immediately. One reason was that his leg was injured, making it difficult for him to stand, and another reason was that he was resistant in his heart.

However, after Master Wu glared at him, Second son Wu reluctantly stood up, looking unwilling.

"Heh heh, if you're not feeling well, you can sit down. It's okay," Yang Haoran said with a smile.

Although Yang Haoran said so, Eldest son Wu and the others didn't sit down, except for Second son Wu, who looked like he wanted to sit down but was stopped by Master Wu's glare again.

Seeing that no one was sitting, Yang Haoran could only smile and look at Master Wu.

"Let them sit down. We're all family, no need to be so formal."

After Yang Haoran spoke again, Master Wu nodded, and the others sat back down, with Second son Wu being the first to do so.

"Tonight's incident must have left a deep impression on you all. Old Wu is worried about your safety and wants me to give you the Death Mark Seal to avoid you being helpless in similar situations in the future."

Yang Haoran smiled and spoke to the group.

Eldest son Wu clearly knew what the Death Mark Seal was, and his face lit up with surprise and delight when he heard Yang Haoran's words.

The others, however, looked puzzled, seemingly unaware of what the Death Mark Seal represented.

"Heh heh, Death Mark Seal? Sounds pretty intimidating. What's the point of getting this thing?" Second son Wu asked with a sneer, looking unimpressed.

The room fell silent after his words.

"Second Brother, have you forgotten what I told you earlier?" Eldest son Wu's face turned ugly, and he reminded Second son Wu in a stern tone.

After being reminded by Eldest son Wu, Second son Wu seemed to remember something, and his face immediately showed fear.

Second son Wu was actually very afraid of Yang Haoran, especially after Eldest son Wu's warning earlier. However, after waiting for some time and with his leg injured, Second son Wu's temper flared up again, which is why he dared to speak out.

Master Wu wanted to scold Second son Wu, but Yang Haoran stopped him.

Yang Haoran looked at Second son Wu, his face still smiling, but Second son Wu felt a chill in his heart.

After just a few seconds of being looked at, Second son Wu couldn't hold on anymore, his heart racing, and his fear intensified.

However, Yang Haoran didn't do anything excessive to him, instead explaining with a smile, "Heh heh, the Death Mark Seal is a seed of power. With it, you'll have abilities that ordinary people don't have. I've explained it to you, so you should understand, right?"
