696: Chapter 109: Longing and Devotion 696: Chapter 109: Longing and Devotion The Black soul envoy, strictly speaking, belongs to a category similar to salespeople, and they each have different personality traits, so they generally have a high degree of freedom.
Therefore, if a Black soul envoy encountered such a situation, the handling methods might vary greatly.
However, if it’s the club’s Maid, then there’s only one method of handling.
As a maid of the club, serving the master and protecting the master’s safety and dignity are actions that must be observed, akin to instinct…
Even though You Ye could guess that for Arex, with his understanding of the club, allowing a subordinate to provoke the club was an unusually abnormal act.
Could Arex have such poor control over his subordinates?
This guy who has devoured countless nightmares and is deeply aware of human malice?
Could he miscalculate his subordinate’s mind?
Probably not.
Is there a plan in his heart?
Some other hidden purpose?
What difference does it make?
A hundred years ago, some overestimating people thought that by mobilizing all the power they could, they could destroy the club?
In fact, it was merely the previous club owner’s way of nurturing them…
nurturing only to reap later — a large number of Black soul envoy died in battle, seemingly suffering significant losses, but for the club, those dead Black soul envoy were merely cannon fodder…
Just an alternative recovery of the ‘performance’ held by the previous generation of many Black soul envoy.
Perhaps the current owner will not use the same method of operation, perhaps the current owner will not take the path of the predecessor…
many more perhaps.
But what difference does it make?
The only thing You Ye knows is…
her current master has been infringed upon — even if only verbally.
But since such words can be spoken, it already represents such a mindset.
Whether it’s merely intended as a probe, or carrying genuine malice…
what difference does it make.
The black flame ignited formed a slender, cross-shaped sword in You Ye’s hand…
and the so-called battle was almost pleted in an instant.
The ‘Amaterasu-ōmikami’ had barely walked onto the first step of the stone staircase — yes, she had merely lifted her leg onto one step, and her attack, her various means were still brewing…
maybe one more second…
even half a second, some decent offensive means would have been unleashed.
But the fact is as it is, as if there is no explaining rational force.
The cross sword, transformed from black flame, had already directly pierced the ‘Amaterasu-ōmikami’s’ shoulder.
The ‘Amaterasu-ōmikami’ widened her eyes, seemingly broken of all illusions in this split second…
her illusion technique shattered, unable to maintain the appearance of ‘Amaterasu’, revealing her true form…
a girl in a kimono: Miki.
That kind of explosive black flame power, erupting in her body like a volcanic eruption, made her feel an illusion of being incinerated in an instant.
Yet…
it was not just one sword!
Her left shoulder was pierced, and simultaneously her right shoulder was also penetrated, then a flash of black light passed, and her throat was also broken open!
Three different attacks seemed to have no sequence, appearing to happen simultaneously…
and yet there was only one opponent.
Strictly speaking, Miki did not possess a real entity.
Born from nightmares, she also thrived by devouring nightmares, holding essential similarities to Arex — however, without even mentioning the horrific wounds on her shoulders, the moment her throat broke open, Miki could not utter a single sound.
What was erased was not her external language capability…
but even her inherent internal ability related to sound munication.
The girl in a kimono fearfully knelt on the steps for the first time.
The black flame cast by the Maid had already withdrawn, and she looked at Miki expressionlessly, “You said too much of what you shouldn’t have, please be a bit more careful next time.
If it happens again, I can only erase you from origin.”
The Maid then glanced forward, calmly stating, “Mr.
Arex, please manage your people well.”
Concession was only because the other party was a guest of the club — a guest still in a transaction, that’s all.
“Certainly.”
Arex’s figure came out of the void…
as an intruder possessing nearly a third of the omnipotence of the Yan Wuyue World, theoretically there was nowhere in the Yan Wuyue World that could hinder his arrival.
“I sincerely apologize.” Arex came to Miki’s side, “I’ve spoiled this child, and sometimes she’ll indeed do some overboard things.”
But afterwards, You Ye merely returned to stand behind Luo Qiu…
because the apology should be directed at her master, not her…
she needed none of the spotlight stealing.
“In that case, I will not heal this young lady’s injuries.” Luo Qiu nodded.
Though it was just a trivial effort, it still required consuming his life span — though now his lifespan could afford to be wasted, You Ye wouldn’t like it, presumably.
“As it should be.” Arex glanced at Miki…
the severely injured kimono girl revealed a plex and annoyed look.
“Regarding this clash, it was indeed an error on my side.” Arex lightly shook his head at Miki: “To express my apology, after the transaction is pleted, I’ll add fifty True Souls to the originally agreed upon transaction gold as a gift.”
Luo Qiu weled without refusal, smiling, “Thank you very much.”
Customer satisfaction, wishing to give more…
there’s no reason not to accept, naturally, not accepting would be disrespectful, wouldn’t it?
The club…
is the most customer-caring, indeed.
“Two days later is the scheduled time to act.” Arex then picked Miki up, glanced at Luo Qiu, “Looking forward to our cooperation being pleasant.”
Until leaving just like that, Arex never showed any anger.
At this point, the Maid unexpectedly mented, “Master, the previous master once said: Arex is actually a quite suitable successor.
But I…
don’t like him.”
Dislike…
already expressing emotions in such a way.
“I kind of feel we could get along.
Though, he’s quite black, indeed.” Luo Qiu only chuckled, offering no further evaluation — that’s a consideration for the predecessor, unrelated to him, because he is the current, because as the current, even the predecessor cannot reclaim it.
The club owner’s identity belongs only to the current…
unless Luo Qiu actively gives it up, transferred in another manner.
Speaking, Luo Qiu turned around, looking toward the end of the stone steps — the end of the road leading to the Shrine, wherein stood a somewhat thin figure, quietly.
The Shrine’s Mrs.
Witch.
She lowered her head, watching silently, and when Boss Luo turned to look, their eyes met unexpectedly; afterwards, the Mrs.
Witch said nothing, simply turning to leave.
“Probably wasn’t looking at me.” Boss Luo smiled gently, a black card appearing in an instant flip of his palm, then it vanished.
Subsequently, You Ye glanced once down at Zaodao Village, shaking her head, “What a pity about this Nagato House, if it were real, there would be quite a few suitable masters, indeed.”
“I do kind of feel like opening Arex’s box.” Luo Qiu shook his head, “Unfortunately, it’s only a temporary collateral…
Zhuifeng, let’s deliver the gift into Zhuifeng’s hands, since he hasn’t entered the village.”
“Okay.” The Maid gracefully smiled.
Originally, before entering the movie…
Yan Wuyue World today, it was to deliver Christmas Eve gifts to the guests.

“…Can’t use power either?”
This question came after Zi Xing listened to everything about what happened ‘a year ago’ from Mo Xiaofei, and all the information gathered in this ‘year’.
Not much time was spent organizing this information; more time was actually spent soothing Mo Xiaofei’s spirit—mania, during this year’s reincarnation, Mo Xiaofei inexplicably became manic.
However, it was thought that as time went on, Mo Xiaofei would gradually return to normal.
Falling into such a nightmare loop and not losing it so far was enough to show that this disciple of Master Long had a very strong will.
“Hmm…
It should have started from when I fell into that trap mechanism of the Nagato House.” Mo Xiaofei recalled carefully, “It should have started from then that my power began to weaken.
Until I encountered that crazy woman in the dungeon did it finally disappear…
but I vaguely feel that my power wasn’t erased, but suppressed by something.”
From the first day of reincarnation, without power, Mo Xiaofei naturally couldn’t do much—after going through the first few reincarnations, Mo Xiaofei began to grasp some characteristics of his reincarnation.
Once he contacts the crazy woman in the dungeon, the loop begins.
Once he dies, the loop also begins.
If he does nothing and hides in Zaodao Village, within seven days, the loop will also initiate.
“If I’m not mistaken, you and I should have e to this world at the same time.” Zi Xing was pondering at this moment, “Lord Mo has reincarnated here for a year, it seems like time hasn’t moved forward, but in fact, I have arrived…
So time should be passing, it’s just that your time in Zaodao Village became incredibly slow.
One day in the sky, one year on earth, Paradise on Earth…”
“But I’m more worried about you.” Mo Xiaofei shook his head, “I’m afraid that even if you arrive, you, like me, will repeat this over and over.”
At this time, instead of worrying about himself, he was concerned that she might also be trapped in the loop…
Zi Xing frowned slightly, wondering if this disciple of Master Long was too kind-hearted.
“This needs to be tried to find out.” Zi Xing mused for a while, “The fortunate thing is, Lord Mo, your memory won’t disappear.
Although it’s the root of pain, it may also be the key to breaking this stalemate.
At least, you can keep accumulating intelligence about Zaodao Village…
I’m just afraid if I, like you, fall into a loop but can’t retain this part of the memory, it would be too troublesome.
Because every time, you’d have to convince me.”
“Why don’t you tell me something special as a sort of code?” Mo Xiaofei considered.
“Zhen Long.” Zi Xing replied suddenly.
“Zhen Long?” Mo Xiaofei was taken aback, “Sounds like a name…
Is it your name?
Speaking of which, Zhuifeng doesn’t seem to have formally told me your name.”
Zi Xing said indifferently, “Just treat it as a code name.
If I lose my memory and you need to convince me, as long as you say this code, I will believe you.”
“I understand.” Mo Xiaofei nodded.
“What about the so-called Munakata Goddesses?” Zi Xing quickly asked again.
Mo Xiaofei shrugged, “That Great Goddess loses her memory every time.
At first, it’s okay.
I can patiently convince her time after time.
Later on…
I just couldn’t be bothered anymore.
Right now, she should be panicking because she lost her powers and is carefully probing for information about herself.
Anyway, she does the same things every time.”
Mo Xiaofei shook his head again, “Instead of wasting time at first trying to convince her, it’s better to directly find the key to breaking the stalemate.
Unfortunately, even so, there has been no result so far.”
He didn’t want to leave this girl in a passive state of play, but he had no other choice.
“Getting information on everyone in the village is already extremely difficult.” Zi Xing looked at Mo Xiaofei with some sympathy.
“By the way, what are you here for this time?”
“Fuji.” Zi Xing replied indifferently, “That Fuji.
When watching the movie, I began to lose focus from the moment I saw the Fuji.
I suspect this time it has something to do with it, so I came to Zaodao Village.
In the movie, the Fuji was written by the possessed heroine Narukami Kunai, so I believe the key might be with the heroine.”
“But Narukami Kunai has never appeared from beginning to end.” Mo Xiaofei said seriously, “In this year, you are the only one who entered Zaodao Village…
If your guess is correct, Zaodao Village’s looped time is actually flowing, but if it’s so slow, we might have to wait decades, or even hundreds of years, to see Narukami Kunai.
If that’s the case, then we’re afraid we’ll both…”
“Go pletely crazy!” Zi Xing voiced Mo Xiaofei’s concern, also being extremely solemn.
Reincarnating the same day over a hundred years…
This Young men of the Greedy Wolf Clan doesn’t know if he can withstand it either.
After a moment of silence, Zi Xing proposed, “No matter what, I also want to approach that crazy woman under the dungeon to see what’s going on.”
“That mechanism is hard to get into.” Mo Xiaofei shook his head, “Every time I try to go in, it alerts people of the Nagato House, several times I got directly killed and then reincarnated.”
“Leave it to me this time.” Zi Xing replied indifferently, “There is still some use for the identity of this Kondo Tsukihime.”
Mo Xiaofei nodded, thinking, finally meeting a panion.
He wondered where Zhuifeng and the class monitor were at this moment.
…
…
Under the Sakura Tree.
Arex extracted strands of gray-black mist from the void, injecting them into Miki’s body.
Her shoulder wound and the more horrific throat injury slowly began to heal.
“That black flame of Ms.
You Ye is a terrifying thing that can burn even the soul itself.
There’s hardly anything that can resist it even in the main world…
And even that is only barely.” Arex shook his head, “Bear with it a little longer, the nightmare extracted from Zaodao Village will help you recover quickly.”
Recalling the moment of having no resistance at all in front of that woman, Miki’s face turned a shade paler.
Miki struggled to speak, “I’m sorry, Mr.
Arex…
Miki is inpetent.”
Arex shook his head, “I know your nature, it’s also my fault for not considering this aspect.
Forget it, anyway, it’s in the past.
What’s most important now is your recovery.”
“But because of Miki, you lost fifty True Souls, my Lord…” Miki bowed her head deeply.
Arex smiled slightly, “Even if it means trading all the True Souls, I can’t bear to lose you.”
“Mr.
Arex…”
The delicate girl in a kimono lightly embraced Arex, burying her head in his chest, murmuring, “Miki will definitely…
will definitely fulfill your dream…”
