Midnight.
Shortly after Lu Yibei had ngng publish the "Huacheng urban legend Administration Regulations Disaster Revision Absolutely No More Changes Final Version", a PDF file with identical content appeared in the Monster Story Chat Group.
"..."
Are these the rules set by the Disaster after taking over Hua City? The Void thought after reading the file information.
In fact, almost all Kings of Weird Tales set a series of rules for their subordinates after completing the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, just like the Plague Tai Sui's rule is that all urban legend must rge with it, the rule in Taoyuan is happiness above all else, or things like no entry for living people, or regularly paying tribute.
So what does the Disaster's count as?
Harmonious coexistence between humans and urban legend?
Her personal style is truly exceptionally distinct! The Void thought.
While contemplating, he asked in the chat group, "What does everyone think of the Disaster Demoness's administration regulations?"
Netizen Old Pervert 00: "There are so comndable points, but it's not perfect enough. For example, the rule about using earth vein aura to capture stray aura to subsidize subordinate urban legend, in my opinion, is too idealistic. If there are too many urban legend that cannot be self-sufficient, she is very likely to be unable to fill this gap."
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "Excessive, completely and utterly excessive! If urban legend cannot hunt freely, what kind of urban legend are they still?"
Arguntative Expert: "If urban legend are caught by the Night Watch while hunting freely, they are no longer urban legend, but Strange Tale core."
"..."
While the chat group was buzzing with discussion, Netizen Laosepi asked, "Void, what's your opinion?"
Void: "I think it's not bad, it has great reference value. If one day I successfully complete the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, I might refer to so of its content."
Void: "@One Hundred ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) and Two-Thirds Cats By the way, Xiao Qi, do you still rember what I told you before? Rember to deliver the stuff to the Disaster later!"
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "【Cat angry】 Got it, I'm already on my way!"
----
After two light snowfalls, Hua City had cleared up, and the waning moon hung in the clear sky, as if washed by snowlt, casting a bright moonlight.
Under the moonlight, a phantom figure shuttled between the tall buildings of Hua City, gradually approaching the direction of Happiness Community.
After a long ti.
That phantom figure leaped down from the top of a tall building, soaring on the cool evening wind, a huge shadow spreading out behind her as if to obscure the moonlight, like tens of thousands of slender tails swaying.
Against the backdrop of moonlight and shadow, the girl's petite and slender figure and long legs were faintly visible.
It was hard to imagine how such a seemingly weak and powerless body could carry the heavy package on her shoulder, which looked like a small mountain.
"Rustle—!"
Miao Xiaoqi landed from mid-air, steadying herself on the grass not far from the Happiness Community's underground parking lot, a pair of mottled ears turning alertly left and right. Just as she was about to walk forward, she was suddenly surrounded by seventeen or eighteen urban legend that flashed out from the shadows.
"Stop! What are you doing?"
With a shout, Miao Xiaoqi was startled, and her fur bristled all over.
Looking in the direction of the sound, those urban legend held Spiritual Energy items with bizarre shapes that looked like they were scavenged from an old furniture market, toilet plungers, tal folding chairs, claw hamrs... everything was there.
The low-level Spiritual Energy items that Lu Yibei had plundered from Li Tanghan's ho finally ca into use.
The Spiritual Energy fluctuations of a few urban legend were not weak, and with the "unconventional weapons" augnting them, it was clearly not suitable to force her way in.
"..."
After a brief silence, Miao Xiaoqi patiently explained, "I, I'm here to deliver a gift to Wang Bu Liu Xing!"
"Wang Bu Liu Xing? Who? Never heard of her!"
"Exactly, this place is the Disaster Demoness's lair, no unauthorized urban legend are allowed to enter!"
"Damn it, I forgot about that..." Miao Xiaoqi muttered to herself through gritted teeth, and was about to open her mouth to explain.
Just then, a sweet shout ca from a distance.
"Alright! She's my..." The voice paused, clearly hesitating for a mont, before adding, "She's my silly netizen!"
Miao Xiaoqi, "..."
What the heck is a silly netizen? We can at least be considered netizens who've t in person, right?
This Wang Bu Liu Xing is getting more and more arrogant now!
Back at the frozen food store, she should have been properly dealt with to leave her with a psychological shadow.
While Miao Xiaoqi was grumbling internally, the urban legend surrounding her parted to the sides, clearing a path, and a girl dressed in Qingyi walked gracefully towards her.
Behind her, urban legend gathered densely, dancing wildly, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Lu Yibei sized up Miao Xiaoqi, who was carrying a huge bag and had an exaggerated appearance like a little thief who had stepped out of a cody manga, and a faint, almost imperceptible smile flickered in her eyes.
"Miss Miao, I heard you are here on behalf of your Void to deliver a gift to ?"
"Then I thank you in advance, but I have important matters to attend to today. Why don't you leave the things and head back first? I'll treat you well next ti you co."
"Huh?!" Miao Xiaoqi was startled for a mont and quickly waved her hand to explain, "No, no, I'm not here to..."
"Not here to deliver a gift?" Lu Yibei frowned, "Then what are you here for? To cause trouble?"
"Of course not, our Void said, you only need to pick half!"
"Oh! I see!" Lu Yibei nodded, walked forward, took the package from Miao Xiaoqi's shoulder and opened it. She was slightly taken aback when she saw the contents of the package.
Aside from common items like Strange Tale core, Spiritual Energy items, and Alchemy materials, there were actually dozens, nearly a hundred, chips in the package, which surprised her greatly.
Why are these things everywhere?
Jiang Li is very concerned about the chips, saying they are dangerous. The black-robed people under Twilight Woman's command also carry these chips with them, and now the Monster Story Chat Group is even sending chips as a gift...
They look valuable, but what are they for? Lu Yibei grumbled inwardly.
In fact, after she completed the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, when the group of urban legend cleaned up the battlefield, besides bringing back many Strange Tale cores, the most nurous items they brought back were these chips.
But after careful study, Lu Yibei found that besides having weak Spiritual Energy fluctuations of varying intensity on them, there was nothing special about them.
She even coaxed, tricked, and threatened the "Disaster's subordinate test subject" Mr. Eyeball into swallowing a few chips. As a result, the chips only remained temporarily in his body, like a child who accidentally swallowed steel beads, but there were no abnormal reactions.
Lu Yibei looked at the gifts Miao Xiaoqi brought, her gaze repeatedly jumping between the large number of Strange Tale cores, Spiritual Energy items, Alchemy materials, and special chips, pondering silently in her heart.
What to do?
I'm not a child anymore, why are you forcing to choose?
I have to find a way to keep all of them!
Lu Yibei thought, walking forward without a change in expression, squatting in front of the opened package and picking through it for a while. After roughly dividing the contents of the package into two halves, she looked at Miao Xiaoqi and said, "I've picked!"
"Just to confirm again, can I really choose half as a gift to keep?"
"Of course!" Miao Xiaoqi nodded.
"You promise?"
"Our Void is not like so people who like to go back on their word. If he said you can choose half, he will definitely keep his promise!" Miao Xiaoqi said.
"Oh..." Lu Yibei nodded thoughtfully, "Then I'll choose... just half of them, right?"
As she spoke, she reached out her hand and gently stroked the right half in front of her.
"Then I'll take the other half with , okay!?" Miao Xiaoqi pouted.
As she spoke, she walked forward, just about to pack up and leave, but was stopped by Lu Yibei.
"Wait a minute! Why are you being dishonest?"
"Huh?" Miao Xiaoqi was slightly taken aback by Lu Yibei's sudden question and mumbled, "Didn't you say you chose the other half?"
"No!" Lu Yibei said expressionlessly to Miao Xiaoqi, "I said half of them!"
"Which half is half of them!"
"It's just half of them!" Lu Yibei said firmly.
Miao Xiaoqi frowned unhappily, "You're such a troublemaker! Half of them still needs a specific..."

Mid-sentence, she realized sothing was wrong. Looking back at Lu Yibei, she saw a hint of cunning amusent sparkling in her eyes.
Sorry, Miss Miao, I don't want to conflict with the Monster Story Chat Group either, but the cost of supporting a large group of urban legend is simply too high.
At worst, if I have the chance in the future, I'll help you from sowhere else? Lu Yibei thought.
Oh no! This woman is twisting the concept, she wants to keep everything! Miao Xiaoqi's face changed slightly.
Just as she was considering how to disrupt Lu Yibei's sophistry, Lu Yibei suddenly spoke before her, waving her arm at the many urban legend around her.
"Little ones, quickly help carry the gifts down!"
Hearing this, ngng, who was in sync with Lu Yibei, dropped what she was doing and moved. She took a few steps forward, extended her tentacles, and rolled up a pile of items on the ground, shouting, "Then I'll help the Demoness carry half of this down first. Thank you, guest!"
Only a few seconds after ngng finished speaking, urban legend who understood the trick surged forward, picked up the remaining half of the items, turned, and ran.
"Thank you, guest, I've accepted half of it on behalf of the Demoness!"
The change ca too quickly, like a motorcycle snatching a bag. Before Miao Xiaoqi could react, ngng and the urban legend who had run off with the items were already gone.
When she ca back to her senses, her fur instantly bristled, and dense tails thrashed wildly behind her. She roared with a low, guttural sound, "Wang Bu Liu Xing, you're bullying !"
Lu Yibei blinked her innocent big eyes, "I'm so wronged! You said I could choose half of it!"
As she spoke, she deliberately emphasized the words "half of it."
"Hmph!" Miao Xiaoqi snorted coldly and quickly pulled out her phone from her jacket pocket. Just as she was about to report the situation to Void and invite people from the Monster Story Chat Group to back her up, she saw a few private ssages from her Void.
Void: "Xiao Qi, hurry back?"
Void: "This little loss is roughly equivalent to a week's commission from the urban legend Bounty Website, it's insignificant. If we can use this to improve relations with Disaster, it's actually not bad."
Void: "Also, I want to see what those chips are for."
In fact, when Void sent Miao Xiaoqi to deliver gifts to Lu Yibei, he had made two assumptions about the situation.
One was that Lu Yibei would choose to keep the items other than the chips.
The second was that Lu Yibei would choose to keep the chips, or take everything.
In Void's opinion, Lu Yibei shouldn't conflict with the Monster Story Chat Group over so unknown chips with low surface value.
If she found a way to keep those chips, it ant that she likely knew the source or purpose of these chips.
The purpose of these chips could not be deduced from information collected online; it was very secret intelligence.
A small sacrifice in exchange for a piece of secret intelligence was completely worth it. Furthermore, after this, they could use this intelligence to make a huge profit elsewhere!
Void's plan was beautiful, but...
"I won't agree! I won't agree!" Miao Xiaoqi said indignantly, glaring at Lu Yibei, "You wait, I'll get those things back sooner or later!"
"Is that so..." Lu Yibei thought for a mont and shouted, "Soone! Prepare a nest for Miss Miao!"
After speaking, she waved her sleeve and left without leaving a single chip. Before long, a urban legend carried over a large corrugated cardboard box with the words "Cat Ho" written on it.
Miao Xiaoqi, "..."
After a mont of contemplation, she lowered her head and replied to Void on her phone: "Void, I'll co back when I collect the debt!"
Void: "Go for it! 【/facepalm】"
Void: "Also, help observe carefully how Wang Bu Liu Xing handles those chips."
So Miao Xiaoqi temporarily settled down in a corner of Happiness Community and began her door-to-door debt collection.
The residents of Happiness Community were very friendly. Within a few days, they expanded the "Cat Ho" into a "Luxury Cat Palace" and provided a large amount of cat food...
----
Two days later.
Huacheng Folk Culture Research Administration, Office Number Eight.
Lu Yibei lay sprawled on her office desk, staring at the report in front of her, muttering intermittently.
"I'm so stupid, really. I shouldn't have issued that troubleso regulation from the start. If I hadn't issued the regulation and let them run wild, there wouldn't have been so many problems, and I wouldn't have ended up in this situation today."
Although Bai Kai helped and the higher-ups turned a blind eye, cleaning up the aftermath of the urban legend in Hua City scaring humans was simply too difficult.
For example...
【The bedside ghost was about to leave after successfully scaring a certain Little Girl.
Hearing the Little Girl cry louder and louder, and say to it, "You... don't go! I, I'm really scared sleeping alone!"
It felt a flicker of kindness and coaxed the Little Girl, who was afraid of ghosts, to sleep, staying with her until dawn.
The next day, the bedside ghost was discovered by the Little Girl's parents and caught on the spot.
Due to its furry appearance, it was mistaken for a new species of animal and sent to the Hua City Zoo. It is currently held in the feline exhibit, awaiting expert research before being publicly displayed.】
After rescuing it, how could they fabricate a story to get away with it?
And...
【An evil spirit seed imitated Sadako's thod of cri, scaring humans by crawling out of the TV.
After appearing, it discovered that the owner of the house was an idol girl it had been obsessed with for a long ti during its life.
In its excitent, it shalessly asked for an autograph. Not only did it not succeed, but the idol girl's face was excessively distorted due to extre fear.
This resulted in a dislocated jaw from bone shaving and severe displacent of her nasal implant, likely leaving her with a severe disability.】
How could they fabricate a story for this ♦? A urban legend that specifically beats up plastic surgery idols?
Looking at the report on her desk, Lu Yibei felt like her brain was about to be squeezed dry.
At this mont, there was a knock on the door, and Du Sixian's voice ca from outside.
"Senior, may I co in? I have sothing I'd like to ask you."
Ask what, ask what? As a subordinate, you don't even help share my worries... Lu Yibei grumbled inwardly, her face expressionless, "Co in!"
Opening the door, Du Sixian walked in and smiled sweetly at Lu Yibei, "Hehe, Senior, I heard from Sister Qing that you're in charge of supporting for this mission, right?"
"Yes, just go ahead and don't worry." Lu Yibei nodded, "Let tell you, don't be timid when you encounter urban legend, be bold and go for it. They only look scary, but they're all paper tigers."
Anyway, I've already greeted all the urban legend in Hua City. No matter who you investigate, they will try their best to cooperate with your performance. Lu Yibei added in her heart.
"Understood, I'm getting ready to leave soon. Sister Qing told to get so equipnt for self-defense. Do you have any good suggestions?" Du Sixian pressed.
"Suggestions..." Lu Yibei briefly pondered for a mont, then slapped the table and said, "Does that even need to be said? Of course, take as much as possible! Take as much as you can. If you don't use it all this ti, you can save it for next ti. If you don't use it all next ti, you can even take it to the Ghost Market..."
"Ghost Market?" Du Sixian tilted her head, her face full of confusion.
"Uh..." Lu Yibei was montarily speechless, then cleared her throat and said, "Ahem, in short, try to pick powerful Spiritual Energy items. For standard Spiritual Energy items and equipnt, just take up to the allocated quota. It's better to be prepared!"
"That makes sense." Du Sixian nodded thoughtfully, her eyes rolling around as she spoke, and asked, "Senior, are you free now? If you are, how about coming with to take a look?"
"Not free, have a good trip, I won't see you out!" Lu Yibei said expressionlessly.
I actually want to go with you, but the conditions don't allow it! Lu Yibei grumbled inwardly.
In fact, Lu Yibei was quite worried that Du Sixian might accidentally kill a urban legend who was acting too enthusiastically. If she had ti to go with her, she could cooperate with the performance.
After all, as a B Level Psychic, she controls most of the precise Spells of the Night Watch and Qingji's unique Spells. urban legend below A-Level are no match for her if they really fight.
But...
Lu Yibei glanced at the report on her desk out of the corner of her eye and let out a silent sigh.
"..." Seeing Lu Yibei refuse her invitation without hesitation, Du Sixian forced a trace of an awkward smile, "Then, Senior, you stay busy, I'll go by myself first."
Anyway...
I'm already used to this situation. Old Dad is always like this too.
Du Sixian grumbled inwardly, turned around and left the office. She went to the equipnt departnt to collect her things, then turned and left the Night Watch main gate. She found the rcedes AMG G63 parked near the gate and drove towards the outskirts of Hua City.
Recently, a strange incident occurred in a small village bordering Hua City and Yue City. In one village, the entire village disappeared during a New Year's opera viewing activity...
