"Baobao, you can't do that! Before eating, you have to wash your hands properly."
Ya
"Mmm, good child, if you can put your clothes on properly, that would be even better!"
"Yi Ya."
"Baobao is so good, let Sister help you wipe your mouth, mmm, great! If Baobao can finish all this rice, then Sister will take you downstairs to see the little fish later, okay?"
"Yi Ya, chew chew!"
Lu Yibei and Ju ng watched Hua Xieyu feeding Wang Yingying with rapt attention, their arms crossed, heads slightly tilted, and lips pursed, their movents surprisingly synchronized.
It looked as if they were studying so profound subject.
About half an hour ago, after Wang Yingying used her "rich" body language to express her desire to eat, Lu Yibei, considering she had just swallowed almost an entire 【Lived】, made so easily digestible food.
The ingredients were the preserved eggs and lean at left in the refrigerator, and he made preserved egg and lean at porridge. Apart from the emotionally charged Spiritual Energy he subconsciously infused into the porridge while cooking, it was quite ordinary.
After eating it, at most, it would make people feel a little down.
However, when Lu Yibei finished cooking the porridge, brought it to Wang Yingying, and prepared to feed her, he realized how difficult it was to get a child to eat obediently.
Although Wang Yingying wasn't like so troubleso children who made various disruptive gestures and resisted feeding.
She just occasionally got distracted by strange things like the phone ringing in the hallway, a small insect flying outside the window, or the sunlight reflecting off residual water droplets on the kitchen sink, as if she was intensely interested in everything she saw, causing her to forget to eat.
But this thorough "non-violent non-cooperation" made Lu Yibei suspect for a mont if she had Indian ancestry.
Wang Yingying made Lu Yibei experience for the first ti how difficult children were to handle. He never thought that the Flower City Tornt King would have a day of being tornted.
But what could he do?
He took in the dependent himself, so even if he had to kneel, he had to raise her!
He could only suppress the impatience in his heart and continue feeding Wang Yingying against his will, until Hua Xieyu couldn't stand his rough, sausage-stuffing-like feeding thod, stepped forward, snatched the bowl and spoon from his hand, and then cast a look of contempt at Lu Yibei, as if looking at a "noob".
The children Hua Xieyu adopted in Xiang Niangzi Cave, the youngest of whom was just one year old when she picked them up, all grew up healthy under her ticulous care.
She was very skilled at babysitting.
Thus, she quickly deeply impressed the two notoriously fearso urban legend with her astonishing talent for taking care of children.
That feeling was like watching a boss who had tornted you to death being played with by your eight-year-old little cousin.
I'm willing to call her the King of Babysitting! Lu Yibei thought secretly.
"Dog thing, what do you think would happen if that Miss knew that the child in her arms could actually grow into a Calamity level strange story?" Ju ng whispered to Lu Yibei.
"Probably nothing?" Lu Yibei said, "She doesn't have much understanding of Calamity level strange stories. In her perception, a Calamity level is probably not much different from a B Level.
"Oh, by the way, having said that, you absolutely must not tell her!"
If Hua Xieyu got scared and quit, who would take care of Wang Yingying? Wasn't Bai Lei's wet nurse good? Lu Yibei thought.
"Dog thing, didn't you see? I just told you that you have to coax children!"
"Who says I can't?" Lu Yibei rolled his eyes at Ju ng and said, "I asked you to help feed her, and you couldn't do it either! And you call yourself a deity with Power over offspring!"
Ju ng glared at Lu Yibei and retorted, "Sister, I'm only responsible for giving birth, not raising!"
After a pause, she whispered to Lu Yibei again, "Speaking of which, how is this Miss so good at this? Could it be that she only looks eighteen or nineteen, but is already the mother of three children?"
"Dog thing, have you ever thought that among your predestined partners, so are already mothers?"
Lu Yibei opened his mouth, the words reaching his lips, but he swallowed them back.
He originally wanted to tell Ju ng that the reason Hua Xieyu was so skilled was because she had adopted over a dozen children.
But then he thought, if there were even tractors and "Little Red" big carp among his predestined partners, what was strange about having a few married won?
"Married won? Isn't that even better?" Lu Yibei asked Ju ng slyly, "Speaking of which, you've seen so many people's predestined relationships, have you ever seen anything like a cuckolding storyline?"
"I didn't expect you to be interested in this kind of thing?" Ju ng said, "If you must say, then Sister, I've seen too many.
As she spoke, she quietly placed a hand on Lu Yibei's shoulder, leaned closer to him, and whispered in his ear, "Want to hear? Sister can tell you for three days and three nights without repeating anything."
"The content is guaranteed to be more exciting than you can imagine!"
Lu Yibei dodged to the side and said weakly, "No, no? I'm a pure love warrior."
Trash! Only good with his mouth, once it cos to practical action, he dodges faster than anyone. Ju ng thought.
Aren't you the sa? Lu Yibei thought.
3:07 PM.
After entrusting Ju ng to help protect Hua Xieyu, Lu Yibei left Jingyi Apartnt Complex and ca to the Huacheng Folk Culture Research Administration.
Although the strange story incident in Hua City that Hua Xieyu reported to ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) him was not serious and could be resolved by him, the Huacheng Monster King, alone,
However, the children Hua Xieyu ntioned who were taken away by the Eclipse Society were quite troubleso to deal with.
Especially after discovering that the person who traded with Hua Xieyu might be the Eclipse Society President, Lu Yibei felt that this was no longer sothing he or Ju ng could handle.
However, just because they couldn't do it didn't an Zhang Huainan couldn't!
According to the "Fight Magic with Magic Law," since the Eclipse Society sent out their final boss, it wouldn't be excessive for the Night Watch to also have their final boss appear, right?
So, after arriving at the Huacheng Folk Culture Research Administration, hiding in his office, and locking the door, Lu Yibei took out the Mourning Crow Badge and sent a ssage to Zhang Huainan.
"Old man, old man, if you hear this, reply. Ergency situation!"
After waiting for a mont, the Mourning Crow Badge vibrated slightly. After gently stroking the badge with his fingertip, accompanied by a subtle Spiritual Energy fluctuation, Zhang Huainan's voice sounded in his ear.

"It's you again, you brat? Tell , what trouble have you caused now?"
Lu Yibei gazed at the Mourning Crow Badge on the table, frowned, and said, "No, I think you might have so prejudice against ? Do I look like soone who causes trouble?"
Zhang Huainan, "You don't look like it, you are the trouble itself."
After waiting for a few seconds and seeing that Zhang Huainan didn't speak, Lu Yibei continued, "Old man, if you don't speak, then I'll speak, okay? It's like this..."
He quickly summarized the key points of the information he got from Hua Xieyu's report and the incident he encountered on Peony Street today, which he suspected was related to the Eclipse Society President.
"Wait! Are you saying you encountered that person from the Eclipse Society today?" Zhang Huainan asked sowhat nervously, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?"
"No." Lu Yibei said, "He left without doing anything."
I almost did sothing to him... Lu Yibei added in his heart.
"Hmm, based on the information we've gathered in the past, it's reasonable for soone with his temperant to act like that." As if talking to himself, and also as if comforting Lu Yibei, Zhang Huainan muttered, then pressed on, "But why do you suspect that the person you encountered was that one?"
Lu Yibei's mind raced for a mont, quickly coming up with an answer and responding, "Because when I t that person, my Spirit Mark had an abnormal reaction!"
"When I was face to face with him, I felt a strong burning pain from my Spirit Mark, like a ball of fire burning inside my body, and it was eager to move, seeming to want to break through my body... That feeling was like it was desperately trying to rge with sothing."
"At that ti, I was thinking that the source that caused my Spirit Mark to go out of control before was the Black Sun Fire Seed. What could make the Spirit Mark react like this is probably also the Black Sun Fire Seed, or even a higher level existence, and the one who controls that kind of thing is probably only that person from the Eclipse Society, right? I was scared to death then, you know?"
"You're a smart kid!" Zhang Huainan explained, "However, it's not necessarily the one from the Eclipse Society that you encountered. As far as this Old man knows, so core mbers of the Eclipse Society also control things that are a level higher than the Black Sun Fire Seed."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yibei tentatively asked, "So now? You're not going to ignore it just because it might not be that one from the Eclipse Society, are you? Like, the opponent is too weak, not worth you making a move?"
"Nonsense!" Zhang Huainan gently reprimanded, "Brat, even if it wasn't you today, but a stranger with an unknown background who told this Old man the situation, this Old man wouldn't sit idly by."
"A stranger with an unknown background?" Lu Yibei was stunned for a mont, "What if it's a trap? You'd still go?"
"Of course." Zhang Huainan paused and said earnestly, "If it's a trap, this Old man will naturally make them pay the price afterward."
"But before that, even if there's only a one-in-ten-thousand chance of it being true, this Old man will do his best to prevent the Disaster from happening."
A sudden wave of heaviness ca over him. After a few seconds of silence, Lu Yibei asked, "So, you plan to co to Hua City yourself?"
"Oh, no, not really." Zhang Huainan said indifferently, "This Old man is very busy right now and can't leave."
Lu Yibei, "Old thing, I actually respected you for a few seconds just now, and this is it?"
Just as Lu Yibei was pondering, Zhang Huainan spoke again, "However, I will contact other Guardians later and inform them of the situation. If there are any anomalies in Hua City, they will naturally provide assistance."
"Also, regarding those children you ntioned, this Old man will also arrange for people to rescue them. You can rest assured about this. The Night Watch has been dealing with the Eclipse Society for so many years, and similar rescues are not uncommon."
"That's good, that's good." Lu Yibei nodded, "Then I'll just..."
"Wait!" Just as Lu Yibei was about to cut off the Spiritual Energy input to the Mourning Crow Badge, Zhang Huainan suddenly interrupted, "This Old man has one more thing to tell you!"
"Please speak."
"This Old man heard from Master Bixuzi the day before yesterday that recently in the black market, soone is claiming to have a batch of Spiritual Energy items originating from Da Chunyang Palace. Do you have any leads?" Zhang Huainan asked in a deep voice.
Lu Yibei was silent for a few seconds, then quietly picked up the Mourning Crow Badge, moving it back and forth near his mouth, while saying expressionlessly, "Hello? Hello?! What did you say? Uh, why is the signal for this Mourning Crow Badge so bad?!"
"Damn it, could it be interfered with by the Eclipse Society?"
"How about this, I'll hang up first and contact you later, bye-bye!"
After saying that, Lu Yibei quickly cut off the Spiritual Energy input to the Mourning Crow Badge.
He wasn't worried that Zhang Huainan would dig into the source of those "Da Chunyang Palace produced" Spiritual Energy items. Since Zhang Huainan gave him those blueprints, he should have expected this situation to occur. The reason he asked like that was probably to hint at him not to go too far and just brush it off.
Moreover...
How could I go too far? I just want to earn a little money.
Thinking this, Lu Yibei leaned back slightly in his chair, closed his eyes, and sank into his inner world.
The remaining matters would have to be dealt with after dark. Before that, he planned to use the remaining ti to polish his swordsmanship with Qingwu and familiarize himself with controlling the Xuanying Luofu.
5:21 PM.
As the sun gradually sank below the horizon, large swathes of shadow surged like a breached river between the concrete jungle.
Shrouded in shadow, the Hua City Old Stadium, the swimming pool, was like a monster hidden in the shadows, making people uneasy.
The swimming pool was eerily quiet, with no sound coming from it, as if there were no signs of life activity.
Looking from afar, it made one feel that countless terrifying things were hidden inside, waiting, waiting for night to fall, and then beginning a terrifying and bloody feast.
It made one's heart pound and body tremble.
When darkness completely fell, a sound echoed within the swimming pool.
"It's been a day, why hasn't Hua Xizhuang made a move yet? Could sothing have gone wrong?" Miss Rabbit asked.
"Didn't you say that people targeted by that Chairman Adult are like people infected with an acute virus, being eroded almost every hour?"
"Logically, she should have taken action by now, right?"
This was Hua City after all, the area ruled by the Disaster. She was very worried that Hua Xieyu would make so strange move and attract the attention of the Disaster.
Suo E, who had the sa worries, was silent for a few seconds, then said solemnly, "Let's observe a bit longer? If she hasn't acted by midnight tonight, then we'll go find her."
"The Elders often say that sotis, to get the mission target to cooperate, you still have to use so special thods."
"Tsk!" Miss Mian spat, "Should have done that long ago."
