"Star Evil!" Liou Yuan’s mind repeated the words appearing on the Fixed Star Compass.
He certainly understood what it represented; the term Star Evil was akin to floods and fierce beasts for ordinary people in this world.
They lurk in the world when the Evil Star has not yet appeared in the sky, only revealing their fangs when the Evil Star revolves.
During the lurking phase, ordinary people have almost no ans to find them.
Once it shows its ferocity, everyone around will suffer.
"A Star Evil lurking beside my ho, it’s the sa as sleeping with tigers and wolves."
Liou Yuan slightly pursed his lips, his body instinctively tensing.
At this mont, his focus was not solely on the Star Evil.
He still rembered the scene he saw at the mont he awoke in this body after crossing into this world.
This body was covered in blood, lying between the street of the neighbor’s house and his own.
At that ti, he was in excruciating pain, and soon after, his consciousness fell into a swoon.
When he woke up, he was at ho, rescued by his mother, Bai Xin.
At that ti, Liou Yuan had no clues at all to investigate the reason for the original owner’s death of this body.
Now with the clue from the Fixed Star Compass, he couldn’t help but connect Liou Yuan’s death with the Star Evil.
Undoubtedly, the murderer responsible for this body’s original owner’s death likely ca from the Star Evil lurking in the neighbor’s house.
This is also why Liou Yuan had such a strong reaction upon seeing the gray-black display on the Fixed Star Compass.
Because it was killed by that Star Evil.
Just thinking about living under the watchful eyes of the Star Evil for two months, Liou Yuan’s face turned gloomy and dark.
"If not for the fact that the Evil Star hadn’t appeared this month, enabling the Star Evil to continue lurking, I fear I might have died a second ti at its hands."
Thankfully, he possessed the Fixed Star Compass, allowing him to detect it in advance.
"Learning about this now is not too late."
Liou Yuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with lingering fear, glancing with dread in the direction of his neighbor.
Then he focused his attention on the Fixed Star Compass in his hand.
The mystical nature of the Fixed Star Compass brought great surprise to Liou Yuan.
Its capabilities were exceedingly powerful; within its coverage area, it could survey everything.
Particularly for items that exceeded the mundane, the Fixed Star Compass would intentionally highlight them.
First it discovered the items beneath his bed, then the Star Evil lurking next door.
Not only could it be used as a treasure-seeking compass, but it could also serve as a ans of danger detection.
rely predicting danger in advance could ensure Liou Yuan’s safety.
However, the glow from the Fixed Star Compass only lasted for about as long as a cup of tea.
After completing its survey, the light emitted from the center of the compass began to fade, reverting to its ordinary appearance, lying quietly in Liou Yuan’s palm.
"It must have exhausted the star power absorbed over the past month; to revive it, it needs to bathe in sufficient star power again."
Liou Yuan vaguely guessed the usage of the Fixed Star Compass.
Just as he was about to put away the compass.
Suddenly, a tender child’s voice ca from the neighbor’s house.
Liou Yuan’s ho was in the northwest corner of Yanhe City, rarely visited by passersby, very quiet.
With evening approaching, noise was even less likely.
His ho was separated from the neighbor’s by only a wall; even though the neighbor’s voice was extrely faint, Liou Yuan could still hear it.
"Grandma, why are you leaning on the wall?" spoke a young boy.
That was the neighbor’s child, whose formal na Liou Yuan didn’t know but knew the childhood na, Ping’an.
And the person he called grandma, Liou Yuan naturally was also familiar with.
She usually appeared kind and amiable, very skilled in needlework.
Her son and daughter-in-law worked at a restaurant, returning ho very late each day.
So most of the ti, it was the grandmother and grandson living together.
Upon hearing the child’s voice, Liou Yuan’s body froze once more.
Considering the information detected earlier by the Fixed Star Compass, it was increasingly difficult for him to think positively about the neighbor’s actions.
He could nearly imagine the bizarre scene of that kindly grandmother sprawled against the wall.
"What is she listening for? Listening to my movents?"
Liou Yuan’s eyes widened, his previously relaxed body tightening once more.
He felt surrounded by the gaze of tigers and wolves.
Because the Star Evil lurking in the shadows was maliciously watching his every move.
Given the chance, it would undoubtedly tear him to shreds.
