Under the night sky, in the distant suburbs of Hua City, scattered snowflakes silently fell into the quiet, vast mountains.
"Whoosh—!"
Accompanied by a whistling wind, two figures rapidly moved through the mountain gullies hidden beneath the dense forest in the distance, the strong wind stirring up large patches of withered leaves that scattered and drifted.
The arrivals were a man and a woman. The man wore a black outfit, his face was fair, and his figure was slightly thin. His listless eyes made him seem sowhat dispirited.
The woman wore a white dress. Her legs visible beneath the hem were long but not weak, and the faint muscle lines visible beneath her fair skin silently spoke of the terrifying explosive power of those legs.
The two of them sped along the entire way, stopping at the mountaintop to look down at the foot of the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, the toll station on the Hua City section of the Chunjin Expressway was brightly lit, but night had already fallen. The toll station staff had long since left, and the station was empty, devoid of people.
In fact, as the night grew longer, after strange phenona such as eerie white shadows frequently chasing vehicles, sudden dense fog blinding drivers, or pedestrians suddenly appearing in front of cars caused tragic accidents on highways around the world, very few people would remain on the highway after dark.
Therefore, highway toll stations after dark were effectively useless and had beco leisurely jobs with hours from nine in the morning to four in the afternoon two or three years ago.
After observing the toll station from a distance for a while and confirming that there was no barrier blocking the way, Suo E breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness, the Night Watch hasn't taken action yet, and the Huacheng Barrier hasn't been activated. We can still go in from here. If it were any later, I'm afraid it would be too late."
As he spoke, he turned and looked at Miss Rabbit behind him. His gaze fell upon her face, which was not breathtakingly beautiful but was pure and ethereal like a first love. He paused for a mont before quickly averting his eyes.
Noticing Suo E's abnormality, Miss Rabbit frowned and crossed her arms over her chest, finally unable to resist asking, "I say, is there sothing you want to say? If you have sothing to say, just say it. Don't play tricks."
She had already noticed Suo E secretly observing her the entire way. That strange gaze, like a maggot clinging to bone, made her feel uneasy, always feeling that Suo E would suddenly erupt at so point and give her a fatal backstab.
Now, they were about to enter the Hua City area, and the life-and-death battle between her and the Twilight Woman was imminent. Before that, she felt it was necessary to eliminate the risk of a backstab from an ally.
"Uh, this..." Suo E was suddenly asked by Miss Rabbit and froze for a mont, stamring for a long while before weakly asking, "Actually, I've always..."
Hearing Suo E's posture that seed to say, "Don't bla for not being human, only bla you for being too charming," Miss Rabbit's heart tightened, and she quickly interrupted, "Wait a minute! Think carefully before you say so things. I've always treated you as my best partner."
And, a humanoid mobile Spiritual Energy ergency storage unit... Miss Rabbit added in her heart.
"No, no! You misunderstood." Suo E repeatedly denied, "I just saw that you've advanced into a urban legend related to the Rabbit King Śaśaka, and you're female, so I'm a little worried about you."
"..." Miss Rabbit pondered for a mont and asked doubtfully, "Worried? Worried about what?"
"Have you ever heard of the legend, 'There are no male rabbits in the human world, female rabbits conceive by gazing at the moon'?" Suo E said.
Miss Rabbit, "..." What the heck?
Seeing that Miss Rabbit didn't respond, Suo E continued to add, "The source of this legend is related to Śaśaka. According to the legend, after the Rabbit King died by throwing himself into the fire, the Buddha guided him to the moon..."
Hearing this, Miss Rabbit looked up at the sky. Looking up at the sky, she saw a crescent moon slowly erging from between the dark clouds.
"Later, on the night of the new moon, the rabbits would gather in open areas on the mountaintop..." Suo E continued.
Miss Rabbit looked around. This mountaintop... seed quite open.
"On the mountaintop, the rabbits would pray for offspring by looking up at the Rabbit King, which is Śaśaka, and then..."
"Don't say it!" Miss Rabbit finally couldn't help but interrupt, "How can you believe such an unfounded legend?"
I only obtained a part of Śaśaka's Power, not the Power of His rabbit dependents' harem, so it shouldn't... be the case, right? Miss Rabbit muttered inwardly.
"That's good! That's good!" Suo E nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, "I've been worried about this the whole way. What should I do if you suddenly give birth to a little rabbit!"
Miss Rabbit's eyes flickered slightly, and her voice softened a bit as she asked, "Then what were you originally planning to do?"
Upon hearing this, Suo E's cloudy eyes lit up. "Of course, I'd take it back and hand it over to the Elder Council! It's amazing for urban legend to give birth to offspring in such a magical way..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Miss Rabbit rolled her eyes, shook her head, and the light and shadow around her body twisted. With a flash of faint light, she disappeared from her original spot and reappeared dozens of ters away.
"Hey! Why did you leave? Wait for !"
From a distance, Suo E's voice ca from behind, but Miss Rabbit seed to have not heard it at all, burying her head and moving at full speed towards the center of Hua City, while Suo E could only barely keep up by exerting all his strength.
Ten minutes later.
The green mountains receded, and on a dilapidated house on the edge of the city, the woman in the white dress gazed deeply in a certain direction in the center of the city, a faint mark on her forehead emitting a faint light.
Although the Twilight Woman's influence on Miss Rabbit had beco very weak after several advancents, the subtle connection between them had not been completely severed.
As long as they were within a certain range, they could sense each other's presence.
So, when she reached this point, Miss Rabbit felt it.
"Whoosh—!"
Accompanied by a gust of wind, Suo E landed behind Miss Rabbit, looking at her hesitating figure and asking doubtfully, "W-why aren't you leaving? Isn't this what you've always wanted to do?"
Miss Rabbit smiled. "You're right, this is what I've always wanted to do."
It's just that I didn't even expect that when this mont truly arrived, I would still be afraid. Miss Rabbit muttered inwardly.
The fear the Twilight Woman had instilled in her was too deep, so deep that it had beco a sickness. Unless the Twilight Woman was hunted and completely eliminated, this sickness would never be cured.

anwhile, on the other side, on the long street not far from Happiness Community, Gu Qianqian was confronting the Twilight Woman.
Thus, in a deathly silence, vulgar language rang out.
"Damn it! Who the hell are you, you stinky woman! Do you know how serious the consequences are of offending my Devil Woman?"
Twilight Woman, "..."
Gu Qianqian, "..."
Both of them looked in the direction from which the sound ca, and they saw that Eyeball bouncing back and forth on the ground, looking aggressive.
The False Tooth next to it was [N O V E L I G H T] biting down on the Eyeball tightly, trying to drag it away, its pale tissue stretched long, but it seed to be welded in place, standing firm.
"Eyeball brother, stop talking! You'll die! Do you know who that is? That's the Twilight Woman!" Maotuan (Hairball) reminded in a deep voice.
"I don't care what kind of woman she is! With this kind of trash, we don't even need our Devil Woman to take action, we can take care of her!"
"We?" The Twilight Woman looked at the empty long street behind the Eyeball, tilted her head slightly, the corners of her mouth curved upwards, and her Spiritual Energy fluctuations spread out, her gaze gradually turning cold.
Feeling the powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations that were almost going to blow its body away, the Eyeball struggled to squirm its body and looked back, its movents instantly stiffening.
Behind it, that vast crowd of urban legend had already slipped away, leaving only a few hiding their heads and tails, surrounded by several black-robed figures, trembling in the bushes under ngng's protection.
Eyeball, "..."
The next mont, a silver light condensed in the Twilight Woman's palm.
The part of the Spiritual Energy that Jiang Li used to seal her remains had also corrupted as she woke up and escaped, condensing into the silver long saber in her hand, emitting a faint crimson glow, and it slashed towards the Eyeball.
A piercing shriek suddenly erupted.
From Gu Qianqian's hand, the tal baseball bat swung forward, blocking the trajectory of the long saber's slash.
"Ding—!"
A harsh tallic collision sound suddenly appeared, and the tal baseball bat and the long saber separated upon contact.
"Kuafu's strength, turning the world upside down!"
Seeing the Twilight Woman retreat backward, Gu Qianqian seized the opportunity to fully unleash her Spirit Mark. Accompanied by layers of ripples of a heavy, earthy yellow light spreading around her, she stepped forward, twisted her wrist, and the tal baseball bat in her hand lightly drew an arc, slashing downwards.
This ti, the speed and power of the tal baseball bat's swing suddenly increased dramatically.
The Twilight Woman was unable to dodge, and the long saber was lifted upwards, clashing head-on with the tal baseball bat, the air exploding from the collision and surging of Spiritual Energy fluctuations.
"Bang—!"
In an instant, the asphalt road beneath the Twilight Woman's feet cracked inch by inch, and a tearing pain ca from her tiger's mouth.
Seeing this, Gu Qianqian didn't give her any chance to catch her breath, stepping forward and sweeping horizontally again, leveraging the montum from a light spin.
One strike followed another, slamming down like drumming.
The harsh sound of tal colliding and the explosion from the friction of Spiritual Energy fluctuations continuously erupted. The Twilight Woman retreated in a disheveled manner, while Gu Qianqian pressed forward step by step, swinging the tal baseball bat widely and freely.
The Twilight Woman continuously retreated.
Once, twice, thrice...
However, the more she dodged, the more clearly she felt the brute force and Spiritual Energy fluctuation carried by the tal baseball bat were terrifying.
It was as if from the mont she first started retreating, the initiative had already been seized by Gu Qianqian.
She felt as if she was facing a landslide, and as ti passed, the montum of the collapsing tens of thousands of tons of earth and rocks beca increasingly vast.
Kind Reminder: The Website is about to be revised, which may cause loss of reading progress. Please save your book shelf and reading record promptly (screenshot saving is recomnded). We apologize for any inconvenience caused!
But.
A landslide will eventually stop... Twilight Woman muttered inwardly.
The mont such a thought flashed through her mind, her blade collided with the tal baseball bat, and she clearly felt the strength lessen, imdiately followed by a playful smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.
After all, it's just brute force. Battles between urban legend are not that simple, little sister! Twilight Woman thought.
Seizing the opportunity presented by Gu Qianqian's Spiritual Energy fluctuation briefly weakening, she suddenly mobilized her entire body's strength and fiercely swung a slash forward.
"Clang—!"
Gu Qianqian's seemingly powerful and heavy attack, but was actually at the end of its force, was deflected.
She stumbled back, stabilized herself, and was about to step forward again after a slight adjustnt, just then, the system's exclamation suddenly rang out in her ear.
"Gu Qianqian, don't move!"
However, it was too late.
"They were once buried alone on the hillside where wildflowers blood..."
As Twilight Woman softly whispered a sentence, beneath Gu Qianqian's feet, a cluster of wildflowers quietly blood. By the ti she received the system's reminder and noticed, the tip of her shoe had already touched one of the wildflowers.
The delicate flower that was touched trembled slightly, causing the entire flower cluster to tremble along with it. Petals fluttered down, withered at a visible speed, and as soon as they touched the ground, they dissolved into a pool of scarlet blood.
"Ah—!"
A shriek like a girl's scream during a brutal murder suddenly erupted in Gu Qianqian's ear, and intense negative emotions savagely rushed into her mind.
In a trance, a setting sun seed to appear before her eyes. The light instantly beca intense, and in an instant, only a world of rose-colored hues remained before her eyes.
"Clink—clink—!"
By her ear, the faint sound of sharp tal dragging on the ground ca, covering up the sound of approaching footsteps. The next mont, an intense chill carrying a bloody/fishy sll wind suddenly appeared before her.
----
In the dead silent dream city.
After receiving Chatterbox Girl's reminder, Lu Yibei imdiately hurried to investigate the situation of her two dependents after she left.
Having missed the opportunity to undergo the urban legend transformation at sunset, she felt that sharing her strength and perception with her dependents in the dream was the most reliable way to help them resolve the crisis.
Rushing over to provide support, whether it would be in ti to find them was one thing, but if they couldn't undergo the urban legend transformation, the result would be a buy one get one free situation.
She briefly sensed/investigated and found that Du Sixian was surprisingly not sleeping late at night, but was staying up late counting the rent collected yesterday. Apart from the risk of sudden death from counting money, there was no imdiate danger.
She strongly resisted the pleasure of sharing her perception and experiencing counting money, and imdiately shifted her attention to ngng.
"Cough, cough! Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3! Hey! ngng, can you hear ?"
After waiting for a mont, Lu Yibei heard ngng's reply, "Master, I am here."
Having received a response, Lu Yibei, who had been worried, slightly relaxed and asked further, "Are you in danger over there?"
"Danger?"
ngng on the other side observed the black-robed figures, who were very resistant at first, then offered slight resistance, and finally happily joined in playing in the dream she had woven, feeling sowhat puzzled.
"Reporting to Master, there is no... Oh no!"
"Huh?" Lu Yibei was stunned.
How could things suddenly go wrong just like that, as she was speaking?
While muttering inwardly, she hurriedly followed the "Dependent Operation Guide" provided by Chatterbox Girl, concentrated her will on ngng, and forcibly shared her Spiritual Energy and perception.
In an instant, the two streams of Spiritual Energy fluctuations that had a subtle connection in the unseen rged into an illusory vortex, frantically absorbing her Spiritual Energy.
Her consciousness felt as if it was being pulled by so force, stripped away from her body. After a dizzying sensation that made her head feel like it was splitting, her vision gradually beca clear.
This feeling was sowhat like the legendary out-of-body experience, attached to ngng's body, and even bringing her Spiritual Energy along... Lu Yibei muttered inwardly while experiencing this strange feeling.
Imdiately after, when she saw the scene before her clearly, she suddenly realized her vision was fixed in a certain direction, just like the many tis she had previously peered into the past of urban legend through dreams, and the image was sowhat yellowish.
Could it be that the scenes she had seen before were also shared with her by soone through so ans?
Such a thought flashed through Lu Yibei's mind. Before she could delve deeper, she saw Gu Qianqian lying motionless not far away and the pool of scarlet blood beneath her body. Her heart tightened.
"What's going on with ngng? Did Gu Qianqian die?" Lu Yibei asked anxiously.
As she spoke, she quickly noticed two won confronting each other not far away. One of whom was wearing red clothes and had a seductive aura, and was precisely the "poisoning" woman she had seen in her dream not long ago.
The other was wearing a white dress, her face looked sowhat familiar, as if she had seen her sowhere before.
The two stood together, confronting each other from a distance, creating a bit of a "White Rose vs. Red Rose" atmosphere.
However, Lu Yibei didn't like roses; she liked chrysanthemums.
Uh, cosmos...
"Master, Miss Gu is not seriously injured. She just lost in the battle and temporarily lost the ability to move. Her breathing is still normal." ngng answered Lu Yibei's question.
"That's good, but..." Lu Yibei nodded and said, "How did you two get involved together? What are you doing?"
"Reporting to Master, we..."
ngng was about to answer Lu Yibei's question when she saw the two won who were originally confronting each other suddenly turned their heads together towards ngng's direction. After a brief flash of panic in their eyes, their killing intent was fully revealed.
Lu Yibei, "..."
What the heck?
You fight your fight, what are you looking at for?!
Could it be that you have a bloody tradition over there of killing a bystander as a sacrifice to help the duel?
Just as Lu Yibei was thinking, ngng, who was being doubly suppressed by the Spiritual Energy fluctuations of Twilight Woman and Miss Rabbit, weakly said, "Master, this situation..."
"..."
After Lu Yibei pondered for a second or two, she said, "Don't worry, leave it to in a bit!"
----
Miss Rabbit appeared when Twilight Woman was dragging her long blade and approaching Gu Qianqian.
The traitor's Spiritual Energy fluctuation had approached such a close distance, yet she had almost failed to notice it. Twilight Woman imdiately felt a wave of fear for her oversight.
The matter of killing Gu Qianqian was consequently cast to the back of her mind.
Looking in the direction from which Miss Rabbit's Spiritual Energy fluctuation ca, without pleasantries, without a sudden sneak attack, and without even having ti to speak, Twilight Woman was surprised to find Miss Rabbit, who was many tis stronger than before, suddenly appeared before her.
The blade that had not yet been swung towards Gu Qianqian was also slowly lowered.
And so.
Without knowing the other's true strength, this forr master and subordinate confronted each other like mortal enemies.
Until a Spiritual Energy fluctuation that made them feel danger ca from within ngng's body, in a mix of shock and fright, they both looked over simultaneously.
Twilight Woman, "..." Is that the Demoness Adult they spoke of? She seems to have so strength.
Miss Rabbit, "..." How did soone suddenly appear out of nowhere? This will be difficult now.
While they were pondering, they heard ngng clear her throat and say seriously, "Cough, cough, you two, I'm just watching the show. I have no intention of interfering in your grievances. How about... you continue?"
Twilight Woman, Miss Rabbit, "..."
Watching the show? Who would believe that!
A urban legend of such a high level, secretly observing, is likely plotting sothing else and might even launch a sneak attack during the battle.
How about we team up and kill her first?
Just as Twilight Woman and Miss Rabbit were secretly calculating to eliminate Lu Yibei as a hidden danger, a sentence that made them very concerned drifted into their ears.
"Speaking of which, you don't know what she usually says about you, do you? Tsk tsk, what she says is really nasty. If it were , I couldn't stand it!"
"..."
In the silence, Twilight Woman and Miss Rabbit looked at each other almost simultaneously.
