The bus slowly drove on the road leading to the center of Hua City. Outside the window, a sense of decay perated the once bustling streets on both sides of the road.
This route was originally specially prepared for Hua Yu Sunshine Resort Hotel, and even the buses were sightseeing vehicles with beautifully decorated exteriors.
However, Hua Yu Sunshine Resort Hotel has already beco a ruin, and several versions of urban legend legends have spread. Now, no one goes there to visit anymore.
Perhaps it won't be long before this sparsely populated route is also discontinued, gradually becoming sealed away in the urban legend legends passed down by word of mouth, along with the resort hotel.
Lu Yibei looked at the constantly changing scenery rushing past outside the window and pondered inwardly.
Jiang Li just said that the urban legend in Happiness Community suddenly attracted many tenants and held a welco party a day in advance. This might be related to finding Lingtai Pure Karma.
But what is the purpose of it being early?
If a certain ritual is hidden in the welco party, could it be trying to enhance its strength through this ritual to deal with , who has obtained Lingtai Pure Karma? Lu Yibei thought.
----
After Lu Yibei returned to Hua City urban area, it was still early, so she went back to her apartnt.
It was inconvenient for her to wash, bathe, and sleep while living with Jiang Li in Happiness Community. This was a good opportunity to go ho, take a comfortable bath, and get so good rest.
Moreover, if she didn't go ho for too long, Ju ng, that Slly Girl, would probably throw a fit.
Upon returning ho, as soon as she entered the door, Lu Yibei saw Ju ng rummaging through the storage room for the black rolling suitcase she had picked up from Lin Yiqi before, sitting cross-legged on the ground.
A pile of miscellaneous items was scattered around her. She was counting them one by one and putting them into the suitcase.
Seeing Ju ng looking like she was packing her luggage, Lu Yibei walked over, pressed down on Ju ng's hand, and looked directly into her eyes with deep affection.
"Why didn't you say anything about leaving? Just secretly packing your luggage like this?"
"If I hadn't happened to run into you, were you just going to leave without saying goodbye?"
Ju ng glanced at the sparkling mark on the back of her hand out of the corner of her eye and forced an awkward smile onto her face.
"My injury healed a bit faster than I expected. Seeing that it's mostly recovered, there's no need for to stay here anymore, right?"
"As the highest Leader in Taoyuan, there's a huge pile of things waiting for to go back and handle!"
As if not believing Ju ng's words, Lu Yibei tilted her head and frowned, "Is the reason that simple?"
"Hmm..."
Ju ng pondered for a mont, then straightened her back and said, "I didn't want to tell you originally, afraid you'd blab everywhere and cause unnecessary chaos."
"But considering our acquaintance, I still have to give you a heads-up. Before long, Hua City might beco chaotic. Soone is secretly organizing a Night Parade of One Hundred Demons."
Ju ng was worried that Lu Yibei would go to the Night Watch to report it. Based on her understanding of her, she is capable of doing such a thing.
At that ti, it would definitely add fuel to the fire and cause trouble.
In fact, in Ju ng's perception, it's not a bad thing for a region to give birth to a leader through a Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.
A place with a leader ans there are rules, which is much better than chaotic no-man's-land.
It can also be considered an alternative balance that conforms to the survival rules of urban legend and can bring relative peace.
"I advise you not to ddle. When the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons begins, if you feel sothing is abnormal outside, go ho early, lock your doors and windows tightly, and just sleep until dawn."
"Of course, Sister I am not afraid of a Night Parade of One Hundred Demons caused by these obscure urban legend. Back then, I, alone, killed from the foot of Mount Fanjing to Huangguoshu Waterfall without even blinking."
"How did you do that?" Lu Yibei said thoughtfully.
Ju ng's chin lifted slightly, and she said proudly, "That's naturally because Sister I am heroic and valiant, with invincible divine power!"
"I an, how did you manage not to blink for over 400 kiloters? Do urban legend not have tear ducts?"
"..." Ju ng glared fiercely at Lu Yibei, "Anyway, don't bla Sister I for not warning you! At your current level, if you get involved, you won't survive even with a resurrection armor."
Ju ng was quite worried that Lu Yibei would go watch the fun. If she went, she would definitely encounter the terrible situation where two sides are fighting and first kill the onlookers.
After observing for a while, she found that this kid had an aura that made her feel particularly strange.
That kind of aura was like that of the Plague God Power Inheritor she had seen before, belonging to the type where "even drinking cold water gets stuck between your teeth, and wearing a kasaya still encounters ghosts."
However, she was even more bizarre and secretive, and seed to still be growing.
Guys like her usually die young and don't live to adulthood. She doesn't know how she's lived until now.
Perhaps, she is the extrely lucky type among the "God of Decay" group?
Although Turtle Elder calculated that I have a calamity, avoiding the calamity by seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune is also one way to eliminate Disaster! Ju ng thought.
Lu Yibei, "..."
Night Parade of One Hundred Demons and the like sound very dangerous...
How could I, Lu Yibei, be in a dangerous place?
You don't need to tell , I'll stay as far away as possible.
Lu Yibei muttered to herself, then looked Ju ng up and down for a mont, "Are you really leaving? Can't you stay?"
"Of course not." Ju ng shook her head, patted Lu Yibei's shoulder, and said earnestly, "I know you have deep feelings for and can't bear to part with Sister I."
"But in this world, the most common things are gathering and parting. Learn to get used to it. Even if you try to keep this ti, I must leave."
"It's not that I can't bear to part with you..."
Lu Yibei glanced at the carefully selected Blu-ray discs, Switch, manga, and novels in Ju ng's suitcase, and said expressionlessly, "I can't wait for you, this Slly Girl, to scram as soon as possible, but what do you an by taking my stuff?"
"One sentence: You can leave, but the stuff stays!"
"Bang—!"
Ju ng imdiately jumped onto the rolling suitcase, hugging it tightly with all four limbs like a sloth, and glared fiercely at Lu Yibei, whining, "You heartless wretch!"
"Sister I was so good to you, what's wrong with giving so things as a parting gift? Why are you so stingy?!"
Is this considered a thousand-year-old Adult trying to scam soone online?
Lu Yibei crossed her arms over her chest, squinted at Ju ng, and said, "As the ancients said, taking without permission is considered theft. A parting gift should be given by to you, not secretly taken by you!"
"Get off, get off!"
"I won't!"
"..." Lu Yibei looked at the fiercely cute Ju ng, rolled her eyes, and said exasperatedly, "My point is, if you want a gift, I'll pick it for you!"
"Look at what you've picked! NTR from a calm sea? Your interests are quite special! 'FIFA 19'? I wouldn't buy this unless it was on sale! 'Hunter x Hunter'? I'm afraid you'll degenerate before you even wait for the ending..."
While complaining, Lu Yibei took out the items Ju ng had chosen one by one. In this process, she found that the Slly Girl was indeed a deity, different from normal humans.
Without missing a single one, she stepped on all the landmines he had stepped on over the years, such as being fed garbage, unfinished endings, discontinued updates, and terrible optimization.
Truly♦Amazing!
Lu Yibei spent over an hour sifting through so works that she found classic and interesting but didn't want to revisit in the short term, and neatly placed them in the rolling suitcase for Ju ng.
"These..." Standing up, she pointed to the full rolling suitcase and said, "These should be enough for you to read for two or three years. When you finish them, tell , and I'll send them to you."
"Hmm?" Ju ng squinted and looked Lu Yibei up and down, saying warily, "Why are you so eager today, kid? You're not trying to get sothing from before I leave, are you?"
"How about... I sleep with you tonight? And leave tomorrow morning?" Ju ng said, raising her eyebrows flirtatiously.
"No need!" Lu Yibei refused without even thinking.
Although she did have so knowledge about dependents, she still felt confused after learning from the mysterious girl last night.
If Ju ng could actively share her experience, that would certainly be excellent.
But how would she dare to ask such a question proactively?
Wouldn't asking be equivalent to revealing her identity?
Moreover, she had seen this routine many tis. It seed wonderful, but in reality, it was a huge trap.
Daring to share a bed with a deity in charge of reproduction, even if nothing happens, she has a hundred ways to make you experience the joy of drinking from the Mother-Child River, and you won't be able to find anyone to take responsibility.
The sterilized old mother cat next door was hit like this.
Lu Yibei saw it with her own eyes: that old mother cat ran into the house, was petted by Ju ng all night, and then her belly gradually grew bigger.
Warm reminder: The Website is about to be revised, which may cause the reading record to be lost. Please save your "book shelf" and "reading record" in ti (it is recomnded to save screenshots). We apologize for any inconvenience caused!
Up until now, the neighbor is still arguing with the pet hospital that perford the sterilization!
From then on, Lu Yibei never dared to take on Ju ng's "sweet temptation" again.
Sotis, he would even think that it wasn't without reason that Ju ng said she often officiated weddings in Taoyuan.
After all, for the newlyweds who find her to officiate their weddings, it's uncertain if they can grow old together, but having children early is definitely not a problem.
Thinking this, Lu Yibei handed the packed suitcase to Ju ng and asked, "When are you leaving? Do you want to see you off?"
Ju ng waved her hand, took the suitcase, and said, "No, no, I'll take off from the balcony later and be ho in the ti it takes to eat a al."
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the balcony.
After only a few steps, she stopped again, waved at Lu Yibei, and said, "Co here for a mont. Our contract has been completed early, so I have to help you undo it."
Besides being trustworthy, this was mainly because she was worried about being implicated... Ju ng added in her heart.
Ju ng could feel that the ominous aura on Lu Yibei was slowly strengthening. If it continued to develop at this rate, there might even be symptoms of human-to-human and human-to-urban legend transmission in the future.
"Is it just like this?" Lu Yibei frowned, "Or maybe keep it as a souvenir?"
"It's not even certain if I'll have another chance to see you in the future!"
"..."
Ju ng pondered for a mont, then nodded and said, "Alright then, if you want to keep it, just keep it for now!"
Anyway, if sothing goes wrong, I'll be able to detect it and can unilaterally terminate the contract. Ju ng muttered to herself.
While thinking, she waved at Lu Yibei, dragged the suitcase towards the balcony, and at the mont her body stepped out of the glass door, she transford into a faint erald green stream of light, wrapped the suitcase on the ground, and disappeared into the dazzling sunlight.
"Ah—!"
Looking in the direction where Ju ng disappeared, with a few white clouds floating in the clear sky, Lu Yibei sighed wistfully.
————
Above Hua City, within the clouds.
A streak of erald green light that seed to rge into the wind suddenly wiggled for a while, transforming into the shape of a flying bird, unfolding the wings of the spring breeze, and soaring above the sky.
Not long after, it seamlessly blended into the flock of migratory birds that migrated here every year to spend the winter.
So, on this day, the local migratory birds saw a flock of strange Magpies from other places that they had never seen before.
They spoke in strange dialects, had particularly loud voices, and chirped about dirty jokes related to bird eggs, cloacas, and beautiful tail feathers.
They looked very rude and strange, but for so reason, they made the migratory birds feel very powerful, and they couldn't help but offer them gifts such as bottle caps, tal buttons, and colorful plastic fragnts that they had collected from everywhere.
But after getting closer to them and seeing what they were holding in their claws, the migratory birds gave up.
Manga, ga consoles, light novels... Aren't these all things that humans like?
Damn it! The XP system of these foreign Magpies is so damn strange!
————
anwhile, just as the Magpie transford from Ju ng flew over Hua City.
In the School of Literature building of Huacheng Institute of Technology, a visiting Professor was vividly lecturing to students, and then, he suddenly seed to feel sothing and raised his head to look out the window, his gaze seeming to penetrate the clouds, staring at sothing.
"Teacher, Teacher? Are you alright?"
The inquiry from the girl in the front row sounded in that person's ear. He was slightly stunned, smiled and shook his head at the girl, then raised his head and said to the students in the classroom, "Excuse everyone, I'm going to the restroom."
After saying that, he left the classroom.
Walking out of the classroom and into the restroom, he locked the door of the stall. Only then did that person take out a tattered white porcelain plate, press the edges of the plate with both hands, and softly say, "Looking before and after night, the woman binds a straw effigy, with paper powder on its face, a headscarf, shirt, and skirt..."
Along with the man's low whispers, the light in the narrow toilet stall imdiately dimd, and sothing foul and unclean was restlessly wriggling in the shadow behind him.
After a long ti, the white porcelain plate vibrated slightly, and only then did the man stop his whispers.
"Adult, that terrifying existence has left. Judging by the direction, it seems to be leaving Hua City. You can notify the people you ntioned to start making preparations."
"Ding—!"
As if responding to the man, the white porcelain plate gently shook, making a crisp sound, and then fell silent. The shadow in the toilet stall also receded like a tide.
The light returned to normal.
The man waited for a mont, took out his phone, opened a chat app that was rarely used, and sent a ssage to ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ soone nad "Child of miracle."
【The Jumang Power Inheritor has left Hua City. Whether to intercept her halfway is up to you.】
【I promised to help you monitor her. When will you give what you promised?】
After a long ti, the man's phone vibrated and he received a reply.
【After the matter is done, I will double it for you.】
————
On the other side.
In a detached villa in the distant suburbs of Hua City, which is often closed and where delivery drivers often see eerie figures.
Miao Xiaoqi was squatting on a chair like a cat, using all four limbs, looking at the chat content in the Monster Story Chat Group core mbers group, her ears twitching back and forth.
After a long ti, she frowned, turned her head to look at the old pervert next to her who was scratching his ears and cheeks while watching the download progress bar of a h-ga.
"A Se (Old Pervert), have you noticed that Void's ID hasn't been changed for a long ti?"
The old pervert didn't even look at Miao Xiaoqi. While burying his head in reading more h-ga descriptions, he said indifferently, "Is there a problem with that?"
"Of course there's a problem. He used to change his ID faster than you change your two-dinsional wives!"
"What do you an change? I'm increasing them. They are all parallel, and I love each and every one of them equally... Forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."
The two talked at cross purposes, disliking each other. After a few simple exchanges, they fell silent and went about their own business.
Miao Xiaoqi was staring at the chat content in the Monster Story Chat Group core mbers group while licking her tender white hands, when she suddenly saw a ssage from a group friend in Tong City and couldn't help but frown.
Pure Love Warrior: "@Void Void, those guys who are watching the Jumang Power Inheritor seem to have taken action. Should we follow up?"
Void: "Follow and see. In my judgnt, this information may be quite valuable in the future!"
After reading the two ssages, Miao Xiaoqi quickly turned around and patted the old pervert's shoulder, "Quickly look, the ssage sent by Pure Love Warrior in the group."
The old pervert rolled his eyes at Miao Xiaoqi, "What did that idiot send again? Hunting the Minotaur? Let tell you, you don't need to bother with him. What do kids know?"
"When he grows up, he'll realize that he doesn't actually like pure love or hate Minotaurs. He's just simply perverted!"
"..."
Miao Xiaoqi glared at the old pervert and scolded, "Just look when I tell you to, why so much nonsense?"
"Alright, alright!"
The old pervert couldn't argue with Miao Xiaoqi, so he repeatedly agreed twice, then switched the screen on his computer to the core mbers group, scrolled up a bit, read the ssage, and frowned.
"The Jumang Power Inheritor is Ju ng, and isn't Ju ng Wang Bu Liu Xing's lover?"
"Is Void planning to sell this information to Wang Bu Liu Xing?"
Miao Xiaoqi nodded and interjected, "It looks like it to , but didn't Void say that that bastard is our important ally? Since he's an ally, why not just share the information directly?"
The old pervert shrugged, "How would I know what Void is thinking? In short, he shouldn't have any ill intentions."
After a pause, he added, "Perhaps it's the principle of information traders at work?"
Hearing this, Miao Xiaoqi nodded thoughtfully, "I just don't know how Wang Bu Liu Xing will choose then, whether to choose to know the cause of her father's death first, or the safety of her lover first."
"Hmm..."
The old pervert pondered for a while and said, "I have a hunch that she won't choose either."
"Why?"
"No reason, just a strange intuition developed from having seen countless won."
Miao Xiaoqi, "..."
