Yuan Munye was mostly telling the truth. Breaking out of here was going to be difficult.

Honestly, this was the first time Yuan Munye had encountered a Level Five Evil Spirit.

If he had run into two or three Level Four Evil Spirits, Yuan Munye would have felt more confident.

A Level Five Evil Spirit was stronger than several Level Four Evil Spirits combined.

That was Yuan Munye's current assessment. He could feel the Yin energy released by the Level Five Evil Spirit pressing down on him, making it hard to breathe.

Li Pangpang looked anxious after hearing Yuan Munye's words. He said, "Lao Yuan, what do you think we should do now?"

"Don't panic, don't get chaotic."

Yuan Munye didn't feel like wasting time with empty words.

After seeing Yuan Munye's strength, the members of Li Yuan's First Squad clearly had a higher level of trust in him.

The Paranormal Squad member who had been caught by the Level Five Evil Spirit had been drained dry, and their soul had been devoured.

That person's soul should have at least been an Iron Soul. People without an Iron Soul were basically ineligible to join the Paranormal Special Bureau.

People like Yuan Munye and Li Pangpang were absolute exceptions.

Moreover, the city of Huocheng, where they were located, was a terrible place.

Anyone with any ability would never go to such a place.

That was why the Seventh Paranormal Special Squad, which had been assigned there, couldn't even find enough members.

And that was how Yuan Munye and Li Pangpang ended up in the Seventh Paranormal Special Squad.

In larger cities like Yunhai City, an Iron Soul was the minimum requirement.

After swallowing the Iron Soul, the Level Five Evil Spirit's strength had obviously increased somewhat, but not significantly.

Clearly, this Level Five Evil Spirit needed to devour more Iron Souls, or souls of even higher levels, in order to advance to a Level Six Evil Spirit.

Everyone looked at each other, watching their teammate being killed so cruelly before their very eyes.

Some members had been provoked into anger, while others were terrified. Faced with such a powerful Level Five Evil Spirit, they couldn't resist at all.

In fact, they were just meat on the chopping block, at the mercy of the Evil Spirit.

Time passed second by second.

Suddenly, Yuan Munye said, "Everyone, listen to my command. Spread out. Pang-ge, Ya-jie, you go open the door."

Yuan Munye's orders were decisive and clear, but were only aimed at Li Pangpang and Wang Yajie.

After all, Yuan Munye wasn't confident that the members of the First Squad would listen to him. Instead of wasting time, it was better to be decisive.

After hearing Yuan Munye's words, Li Yuan didn't say anything extra. Instead, he said, "Everyone, listen to Captain Yuan and spread out."

At this point, everyone was unwilling to resist much, and they all spread out.

The warehouse was quite large.

Yuan Munye's purpose was simple: to divert the Level Five Evil Spirit's attention. Otherwise, if the Level Five Evil Spirit turned around and attacked several people at once, it would be a total wipeout.

Then how could they fight?

Seeing that everyone was listening to his command, Yuan Munye felt more confident and ordered, "Everyone, listen to me. When the door opens, run..."

Yuan Munye knew that against high-level Evil Spirits, numbers alone were useless.

They needed powerful magical artifacts, formations, or powerful experts.

Otherwise, when facing high-level Evil Spirits, gathering together was basically feeding the Evil Spirit.

Yuan Munye had been in the Paranormal Special Bureau for some time and had some understanding of these things.

After everyone was in position, Yuan Munye said to Li Yuan, "Captain Li, find an opportunity to go out with them. I'll cover you here."

If it came to running away, Yuan Munye definitely had a better chance of escaping than they did.

Hearing this, Li Yuan's expression changed dramatically. He suddenly felt extremely ashamed, remembering how he had mocked Yuan Munye when he first met him.

Now, seeing that Yuan Munye was so righteous, he felt even more embarrassed. He said, "Captain Yuan, I'm willing to fight alongside you."

"No need, you'll only be a burden to me…"

"Negative emotions from Li Yuan +199…"

Yuan Munye glanced at Li Yuan, thinking that Li Yuan could still be of some use, even at this time, he could still generate negative emotion points.

"Alright, everyone listen to my command. Let's move."

After Yuan Munye finished speaking, he didn't say any more nonsense.

At this point, the Level Five Evil Spirit had almost exhausted the Iron Soul it had just devoured.

It would soon be free to deal with them.

Sure enough, after Yuan Munye finished speaking, the Level Five Evil Spirit suddenly launched an attack. It was fierce and aggressive.

Yin energy began to spread, putting pressure on everyone.

Everyone felt some fear in their hearts.

After waiting for a while, Yuan Munye took the initiative to attack the Level Five Evil Spirit. He slashed at the Evil Spirit three times in a row with the Dayu Sword, pressing forward with his Zhenqi.

At this point, Yuan Munye was at least at the Ningqi realm.

He might even have reached the early stage of Jushen.

Of course, Yuan Munye didn't know what realm he was in. He just felt that the aura within his body was becoming increasingly thick.

And he had now cultivated the Freezing Palm to the sixth level, so his strength was quite formidable.

The three slashes weakened the Yin energy around the Level Five Evil Spirit.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion in their hearts.

Yuan Munye's strength was not to be trifled with.

But they didn't see Yuan Munye's furrowed brow and uneasy expression. On the contrary, he looked grave.

When he had just attacked, he found that the Zhenqi surging within him hadn't done much damage to the Evil Spirit.

This made him realize that this Level Five Evil Spirit seemed to be far stronger than he had imagined.

He also prepared for a tough battle.

Just then, Li Pangpang and Wang Yajie pulled the trigger several times in a row.

With a series of "bang, bang, bang" sounds, the warehouse door was opened.

The bullets directly blasted away the protective Yin energy.

Li Pangpang then shouted, "Lao Yuan, the door's open! You can go now!"

"You guys go first! Captain Li, take your people and get out of here!"

Yuan Munye shouted.

Captain Li stared at Yuan Munye, hesitated for a moment, and finally said without any hesitation, "Everyone, listen to me! Retreat quickly!"

Upon hearing Li Yuan's words, everyone began to run towards the exit...
