Bai Ningning quickly integrated the barrage information in her mind, and considering that people often said nonsense and lied in the barrage, she could only believe half of it.
She quickly worked out several feasible solutions at this stage.
First of all, the King of Hell's Palace can close all the doors to the underworld. She will go back to the King of Hell's Palace first and close the doors to the underworld, which can block all the evil spirits in the underworld and ensure the safety of the human world.
But Chu Ze has already rushed into the tenth district. If the gate to the underworld is closed, he may be besieged by crazy evil spirits and may not be able to come out safely - this is a hidden danger.
She also considered leaving Qing Huai behind to help Chu Ze, but if Qing Huai was influenced by the resentment of the Tenth District and turned around to attack Chu Ze, wouldn't that be even more dangerous?
Bai Ningning suddenly realized something as if an electric shock had occurred in her mind - didn't she treat Qinghuai as her own?
If Qinghuai really gets out of control, she will be the first to suffer.
Maybe it's safest to follow Chu Ze now?
After figuring this out, Bai Ningning closed her eyes and gritted her teeth as she rushed into the tenth district: "Let's go, Qinghuai."
She had just been delayed a little in District 9, and she thought it would take some time to meet up with Chu Ze, but she didn't expect Chu Ze to be stuck at the door of District 10.
Chu Ze flattened a ghost with one punch, stomped on it hard, compressed it to the size of a small bench, and kicked it away.
Chu Ze seemed to have expected this. He knew it was Bai Ningning without even glancing at her. He said, "I thought you'd be coming in a little later."
Bai Ningning resisted the urge to leave and asked, "What can I do?"
Her expression was quite stiff. Perhaps it was due to her resistance to ghosts and the negative psychological suggestion, but she felt that District 10 was very different from the previous nine districts.
It's so uncomfortable here, just like a person who can't swim falls into the water for the first time, or a fish living at the bottom of the water being forcibly pulled out of the water. Although I know that there is oxygen in the environment here, I still feel suffocated and strongly uncomfortable because I can't breathe.
Bai Ningning looked back at Qinghuai's condition. The other party did not show any abnormality and listened to her very well. He did not absorb the ghost energy here.
Was her discomfort purely caused by the miasma-like resentful and evil spirits here?
Chu Ze was busy fighting to clear the way and didn't notice that something was wrong with her. He yelled, "Don't just stand there and watch! Ask him to help!"
Bai Ningning: "I can't help him, he's too full."
Qing Huai wanted to refute and say no, but he felt the inexplicable restriction of the spirit of words and could not utter a word.
He could only look at Bai Ningning in silence.
Okay, if you say you’re full, then you’re full.
Bai Ningning persevered, trying her best to hide her discomfort, and asked casually, "How do I close the door to the underworld?"
Chu Ze kicked and hammered the ghost behind him. He took the time to point out the direction to Bai Ningning, pointing to the place where the black air was the heaviest and most turbid: "The door is there, you have to get close to it first--"
He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "As long as you can reach the door, you'll know how to close it."
If it were the King of Hell, opening and closing the door would be instinctive and there would be no need to learn it.
Don't waste time, take a gamble!
Chu Ze was so tired that he was out of breath and his soul began to drift away, but the number of ghosts that came to block his way increased instead of decreasing.
They are not very strong, but the quantity is large and troublesome.
"I'll clear the way for you!"
Chu Ze gritted his teeth and punched open a passage, but new ghosts immediately came to fill the gap and surrounded him desperately.
This is really his dereliction of duty!
During this period, the evil ghosts in the back area were much more well-behaved. He thought that his patrols were effective and had frightened off these restless evil ghosts, slowing down the speed at which they became resentful and lost their minds.
Unexpectedly, these evil spirits had just secretly hidden in the tenth district and planned for so long, and gave him a "big gift" at this time.
Chu Ze called out to Bai Ningning: "There are too many of them. This is too slow. Come here. I'll find another way to get you there!"
Bai Ningning didn't respond, she could no longer hear what he was saying.
She felt as if she was covered with a layer of film, which made her extremely uncomfortable, unable to breathe, and even separated her from the surrounding environment.
All the sounds around became hazy, and even the air became thin. Bai Ningning felt as if she had fallen into the deep sea, unable to see the light or hear the sound.
She stared at the area ahead where the black fog was thickest and most turbid—that was where the gate to the underworld opened.
Close it.
It wouldn't be so uncomfortable if I closed it.
She stepped forward, facing the group of ghosts, and walked towards the door.
The ghost group split into two groups. One group rushed to pass through the gate of the underworld and stir up trouble in the human world; the other group went in the opposite direction and tried their best to slow down Chu Ze's pace.
When Qing Huai saw her leaving by herself, he was stunned for a moment and hurried to follow her - she had clearly acted very afraid of ghosts before, so why was she suddenly not afraid anymore?
She didn't let him absorb the ghost energy here before he came in.
There is no choice but to follow her silently and protect her.
——Tsk, humans are such a trouble.
Chu Ze finally realized that Bai Ningning was not in the right state, and he cursed anxiously: "Fuck! Affected by the ghost's resentment?!"
He didn't care about anything else and wanted to send Bai Ningning out of District 10 first. If she was really affected by the resentment here, it would be a huge loss!
He took it for granted - he saw that Bai Ningning could subdue a ghost as strong as Qing Huai without awakening the power of the King of Hell, so he took it for granted that the King of Hell was born strong.
I never expected that she would be so easily affected by the ghost's resentment.
"Ehahaha! 'Acting' Yama-sama, your opponents are us!"
The evil spirits took advantage of his distraction and attacked Chu Ze without hesitation. Not only did they want to make it impossible for him to move, but they also wanted to take the opportunity to seriously injure him, leaving him with an indelible soul trauma.
Bai Ningning didn't care about the movement here at all, and walked forward at her own pace, but she was soon stopped by the little ghost, who did not allow her to approach the gate of the underworld.
"Anyone who stands in my way..."
Deep purple ripples suddenly appeared under Bai Ningning's feet, spreading out in all directions with her as the center.
The ripples seemed to be cleaning up, leaving everything clean wherever they went. The evil spirits that had been grinning just now disappeared with screams.
The purple ripples were still spreading around, leaving a wasteland around Bai Ningning. She stepped on the purple ripples on the ground and continued walking towards the gate of the underworld.
Qing Huai wanted to continue following, but he realized that the purple ripples were not friendly to him either, so he could only step back and avoid them.
Chu Ze recognized what it was and turned around and ran out without caring about anything else - saving his life was the most important thing!
He ran all the way to the outside of the cordon of District 10 before he breathed a sigh of relief.
He is now in a spirit state. Bai Ningning has lost her mind and cannot tell the difference between him and other evil spirits.
She unconsciously opened the gate of hell and dragged in all the evil spirits that blocked her way.
That was a scary place, and Chu Ze didn't want to get involved. If he went in, he might not be able to get out.
Chu Ze came back to his senses and looked around, only to realize that Area 9 was particularly empty.
"Could it be that she wasn't scared before, but was clearing out the evil spirits here, so she didn't go in for half a day?"
Chu Ze scratched his head in confusion and muttered to himself while standing outside the cordon.
Is she afraid of ghosts?
On the ground, Yuan Muyang realized that there were quite a few evil spirits pouring out of the gate of the underworld, and each of them was extremely vicious and could not be dealt with by him alone.
He did not act rashly and immediately contacted the Xuan Committee for help. After calmly reporting the address, scale, and the possible weather changes to the other party, he rushed to the gate of the underworld where evil spirits continued to pour out without hesitation.
Chu Xisen was panicked when he saw the dark clouds looming outside the window, but there was nothing he could do now and he could only hope that his two brothers would wake up soon.
Even though Geng Yiyi's perception of ghosts was dull, she could still sense that something was wrong. It was not too dark before she went to bed, and the moonlight was bright and brilliant, making the sky a deep blue.
But now the clouds are thick and the air is turbid. There is no light in the sky, and even an unformed black vortex has appeared.
Geng Yiyi felt something was wrong and wanted to go next door to see how Bai Ningning was doing. However, considering that knocking on the door in the middle of the night would disturb others and might easily wake up the people in Qingwei Mountain, she decided to use some special methods.
She took advantage of the fact that Peach Blossom Evil had no physical form and tried to float into Bai Ningning's room through the fresh air system.
But no one would have expected that the super luxury hotel was different. It actually had spells set up and was specially designed to prohibit non-humans from entering.
Geng Yiyi was so angry that she kicked the wall. She tried to get out through the crack in the door, but it was impossible. Wasn't this hotel designed too much for them, the non-humans?!
In a hurry, she thought of the bell in Bai Ningning's hand.
Whenever Bai Ningning called her, she would basically feel it and could sense Bai Ningning's specific location.
What if she goes the other way and uses the bell to teleport to Bai Ningning?
Underworld, District 10.
The purple ripples have spread to the vicinity of the Gate of the Underworld, growing wildly, dyeing the Gate of the Underworld purple.
The evil ghosts finally realized that they had offended someone they were not going to deal with, and they began to flee in all directions. Many ghosts even rushed towards the gate of the underworld, hoping to take advantage of the chaos to escape to the human world.
These ghosts did not notice that when they passed through the gate of the underworld again, their bodies were also stained with light purple ripples.
Bai Ningning raised her right hand and suddenly pressed it down hard, creating a sharp sound of wind.
The gate to the underworld closed with a sound.
The ghosts were stunned for a moment and ran away even faster.
But in the blink of an eye, the purple ripples had spread to cover every corner.
Bai Ningning sent these troublemaking ghosts to hell and felt a little relieved. She stretched her shoulders, but she still felt unhappy.
Just as he was about to capture all the fleeing ghosts and confine them in the lower levels of hell, he raised his hand and suddenly felt a chill on his left palm.
A peach blossom evil spirit came out from inside.
“?!”
Geng Yiyi was caught off guard and met Bai Ningning's red eyes, and was startled.
Turning around, I saw strange purple ripples all around me——
And an extremely powerful ghost that was forced into a corner by the purple ripples and was covered in black air.
Bai Ningning's eyes were calm, and she looked at her as if she were a dead object, without any emotion at all, and even seemed to dislike her for being in the way.
Geng Yiyi explained with a wry smile, "I wanted to see if you needed help... I don't think you need any help, so I'll go ahead and—"
Before she could finish her words, Bai Ningning raised her right hand and slapped her with a fierce palm wind.
Geng Yiyi's devilish instinct told her that if she took the slap head-on, she might lose her soul. She trembled with fear and quickly got back into the bell in Bai Ningning's palm.
It's so scary. She used to think Ningning was a little cutie.
What was that look just now? It was like he didn't even recognize her.
And why did even the eyes turn red?
Geng Yiyi found that she had no way to go back at all, so she could only huddle in the bell humbly, not daring to go out or move around.
The next second, she was thrown out by Bai Ningning.
Bai Ningning pinched Geng Yiyi's chin and forced her to look directly into her eyes, as if she wanted to study how this little monster came out of her palm.
Geng Yiyi was pinned down by her and couldn't move. She was extremely panicked for a moment and had no idea what Bai Ningning was going to do.
Geng Yiyi was just about to act nice when she saw Bai Ningning suddenly lose her strength and fall on her.
"Hello?" Geng Yiyi subconsciously caught her. After confirming that she had passed out, she breathed a sigh of relief. Still frightened, she lowered her head and muttered to herself, "What happened just now... Where is this?"
The moment Bai Ningning fainted, the unknown purple ripples on the ground disappeared completely.
Geng Yiyi looked around and saw only endless black wilderness, the edge of what looked like a barrier, and an evil ghost emitting black air.
Geng Yiyi called out to Qing Huai, "Hey, where is this?"
Qing Huai had a gloomy expression on his face, and walked towards them with a ghostly aura swirling around him.
Geng Yiyi felt the pressure, took two steps back while holding Bai Ningning, and shouted sternly: "Don't come over here!"
Qing Huai said coldly: "Give her to me."
The oppressive feeling Qinghuai brought to her was different from that brought to her by Bai Ningning.
From the moment the bell was absorbed into Bai Ningning's palm, Geng Yiyi felt her extremely strong mental control over herself.
If Bai Ningning really wanted to kill herself, Geng Yiyi would probably not even have a chance to fight back, and might even be forced to "actively" die - this is mind control.
Qinghuai is different.
Although Qinghuai also felt very oppressive, for Geng Yiyi, she could still fight, but it would be a little more difficult.
It is one thing to be defeated, and it is another to be unable to defeat them.
Seeing that she was not going to cooperate, Qing Huai used his ghost energy to kidnap her.
Geng Yiyi held Bai Ningning in her arms with one hand, and used the other hand to drive the evil spirit to form a protective shield to resist Qinghuai's ghost attack.
In the deserted District 10, the atmosphere between the two was particularly tense.
"Quiet?" Chu Ze suddenly stuck his head out and saw the two non-humans confronting each other, and Bai Ningning was already unconscious.
Seeing that there was no danger and the ripples and ghosts had disappeared, Chu Ze strode into the tenth district and said, "Let me see what's going on."
Geng Yiyi was quite alert: "Who are you?! Don't come near me!"
"The child's father." Chu Ze responded nonchalantly, his eyes fixed only on Bai Ningning, completely ignoring the expressions of the other two non-humans.
He gave instructions very quickly: "Hurry up and stop wasting time."
Geng Yiyi was shocked by his aura and forgot to question it for a moment.
Chu Ze checked Bai Ningning's condition and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's just a protective coma after exhaustion, it's not a big problem."
Chu Ze turned to Qing Huai and asked, "Why didn't you go out and take shelter just now? I think she was attacking indiscriminately. Isn't she afraid of sending you to hell?"
Qing Huai's face darkened when he heard this: "I can't get out."
He originally wanted to exit the barrier, but this barrier was easy for Chu Ze to pass through, but to him it was like a thick wall that he could not pass through at all.
Fortunately, Bai Ningning's ripples only gave him a piece of land and had no intention of dragging him to hell.
"How could it be...?" Chu Ze was wondering, and when he glanced at the unconscious Bai Ningning, he suddenly realized something, "Try carrying her out again."
Qing Huai didn't respond, but used his ghost energy to form a bed to support Bai Ningning.
Chu Ze complained: "You can't do this, you can't get out, you need direct contact."
Qing Huai's face was so gloomy that ink could be dripped. He carefully held Princess Bai Ningning in his arms and moved out slowly and steadily, as if he was afraid of waking her up.
Chu Ze complained speechlessly: "I told you I'd memorize it, it really is..."
He looked at Geng Yiyi again: "Sha? Where did it come from? We haven't had any of them in the underworld before. It's impossible that they got bored and took advantage of the chaos to sneak in through the gate of the underworld, right?"
Geng Yiyi twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "No, I came here with Ningning..."
Chu Ze didn't ask any more questions, only said: "Okay, follow her out. If you feel that you are blocked by the barrier, hold her hand."
Geng Yiyi wanted to shrink back into Bai Ningning's palm, but Chu Ze's aura was so strong that she didn't dare to act rashly.
She looked at Qing Huai again - and then she remembered that the ghost who flashed by and knocked Yuan Muyang unconscious on the train today should be the one in front of her.
Perhaps it was due to the support of the underworld environment, but his ghostly aura became more condensed, but his expression was also much gloomier than during the day, so much so that she didn't recognize him just now.
Geng Yiyi suddenly felt like she had found a colleague, and her tone became much more relaxed: "Are you Ningning's ghost too? You should have said it earlier. We almost got into a fight just now."
Qing Huai seemed not to hear her and ignored her completely.
Geng Yiyi subconsciously wanted to pat him to talk to him, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, she was glared at with a deadly look.
Geng Yiyi acted awkwardly, pretending nothing had happened, and walked through the barrier holding Bai Ningning's little finger.
What a stinky man, it's quite difficult to get along with him.
After leaving Area 10, Chu Ze opened the portal to the Palace of Yama and took them back.
Chu Hanzhou, who stayed in the Palace of Yama, was always worried, but he didn't want to let his nervousness show, so he sat cross-legged in front of the table and meditated.
He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the portal opened and he saw Chu Ze's face.
But then, the portal sent in two more non-humans and his unconscious sister.
Chu Hanzhou's heart, which had just calmed down, suddenly began to rise again: "What's going on?"
"Small problem, just wait until she wakes up."
Chu Ze pulled out a soft sofa bed from the wall and motioned Qing Huai to put Bai Ningning on it to rest.
Although the Yama Palace has been in disrepair for many years and looks shabby, he bought this sofa bed at a high price, and it is definitely soft and comfortable.
Chu Hanzhou reported to Chu Ze: "The alarm here beeped a while ago, but I don't know what to do."
After Bai Ningning was settled, Chu Ze said, "It has been dealt with. The evil spirits in District 10 opened the door to the underworld. Now the door is closed, but many evil spirits have escaped to the human world."
He shook his head and sighed: "This is a big trouble."
Ten minutes ago, in the human world, the gate to the underworld opened.
Yuan Muyang was unable to close the Ghost Gate that opened from the underworld, so he could only forcibly block the exit of the Ghost Gate to prevent the ghosts from coming out smoothly.
He was ready for a big fight, but for some reason, these ghosts had no intention of fighting him. They all looked terrified and just wanted to escape.
After squeezing out of the gate of the underworld, most of the ghosts fled quickly and disappeared, as if there was something terrifying chasing them.
The reinforcements sent by the Xuanhui Committee also arrived quickly. One of them picked up a ghost baby that had squeezed out of the door and wondered, "Didn't they say they were all evil ghosts? How come there are even little ones like this? Or were the ones you reported as starving ghosts?"
Another person yelled at him: "Tang Bo, stop talking nonsense and solve this problem first."
"How do you close this door?"
"We can't close the door from the outside, so we need to kill all the ghosts that sneaked out first."
There were three people in the support force. They moved very quickly and mercilessly, killing any ghost they encountered.
But even so, the speed at which ghosts poured out of the Ghost Gate did not slow down, and there was even a tendency to accelerate.
What are these ghosts afraid of?
“Why are there so many?!”
Ghosts continue to pour out and flee in all directions. Some evil ghosts will hide in the ghost group and launch sneak attacks.
Just now, a level seven ghost attacked the Xuanwei support staff's shoulder with a ghost shadow palm. There was a huge black mark of the ghost claw on his left shoulder, and his left arm was completely unable to move.
Yuan Muyang hurried to support him. The latter gritted his teeth, quickly treated the wound on his shoulder, and continued fighting while enduring the severe pain.
Suddenly, the gate to the underworld turned purple with strange ripples.
Several people noticed the change and became alert, preparing to deal with any possible changes that might occur next.
The endless stream of ghosts pouring out of the Ghost Gate seemed to be cut off with a knife, and no more ghosts emerged from it.
The ghosts that managed to escape ran even faster.
Yuan Muyang and his companions quickly killed the ghosts around them, but they had no intention of chasing the ghosts that had already escaped. They all frowned and stared at the ghost gate, ready for battle - most likely a big guy was about to come out.
Everyone was prepared for a desperate fight, but unexpectedly, the door to the underworld was empty for a few seconds and then closed.
"What's going on?" Tang Bo grabbed a little kid and interrogated him.
The little ghost was so frightened that he could not utter a word. Finally, he just tilted his neck and pretended to be dead.
Tang Bo shook the little ghost and said, "Hey, you've already died once. There's no point in pretending to be dead."
Yuan Muyang was sharp-eyed and noticed that the little ghost also had purple ripples on his body - the ghosts that first came out of the ghost gate didn't have this thing, so what was this?
The next second, purple ripples gradually spread from the soles of the little ghost's feet upwards until they covered his entire body, and the little ghost disappeared from his hands.
Tang Bo was a little confused. Not giving up, he grabbed at the air with his other hand a few times, but caught nothing. He looked at his hand and questioned his life: "What, what happened? It disappeared out of thin air?"
Several people looked confused and shook their heads.
Tang Bo scratched his head in confusion and made a reasonable guess: "Wasn't that a Poké Ball mark just now? His master wanted to save him, so he used the Poké Ball to take him away?"
The cold-faced man kicked him and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Go check the spiritual energy fluctuation detector here and count how many ghosts have escaped."
Yuan Muyang gave them a rough estimate: "About a hundred or so. Half of them are level seven, there are a few level eight ghosts, and the rest are level six and below."
The Xuan Committee is accustomed to using levels to make classifications, dividing ghosts into levels one to nine, with level nine being the strongest and level one being the weakest.
Ma Juan was about level six before she became smaller, while Qing Huai's strength was above level nine.
Tang Bai: "Are you Yuan Muyang from Qingwei Mountain? Do you know why the gate to the underworld opened this time?"
Yuan Muyang shook his head: "I was staying in a nearby hotel and came here because I felt something was wrong."
He did not mention that the door to the underworld had also been opened on the hotel rooftop. The Xuan Committee might find out, but it had nothing to do with him.
"Thank you for your hard work. Someone will question Mr. Yuan later. I hope you can cooperate with the investigation."
Yuan Muyang nodded lightly and said coldly: "There will be staff from Qingwei Mountain to connect with you."
It seems like he wants to cooperate with the Xuan Committee instead of cooperating with the investigation.
After he finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the hotel. He had to report this matter to Qingweishan as soon as possible. This was a big project and Qingweishan could not be excluded.
I have to go back and check on Bai Ningning's condition. Although I have prepared several amulets for her as a safety precaution, it will be a big trouble if she is discovered by ghosts.
[Ningning, it's time to come back to life. Yuan Muyang will be coming to see you soon.]
[Mu Yang, step back a little and get in line first. Your father, brother, and others are waiting for you. Stand up and explain first.]
[This is so funny! There are more people waiting for an explanation than just these few. Look at our little peach blossom too.]
What a busy night!
Before Bai Ningning even opened her eyes, the screen was flooded with comments.
The first sensory system to recover was her ears, and she heard a commotion nearby.
Geng Yiyi's voice came first: "So that's how it is. It's the ghost energy and resentment that's causing the red eyes... Aren't you the King of Hell? Why don't you keep an eye on it?"
"Because I have no experience!!"
Chu Ze's voice was not loud, but there was a hint of exasperation between the lines.
Geng Yiyi fearlessly added, "Huh? No experience? No experience showing people around? Or no experience taking children?"
Chu Ze turned his eyes away, pretending not to hear what she said. When he turned around, he noticed Bai Ningning's eyelashes fluttering slightly. He greeted her, "Are you awake?"
When everyone heard this, they quickly put down what they were doing and gathered around as quickly as possible.
Bai Ningning opened her eyes and saw heads everywhere - several people were standing in a circle around the bed, all looking down at her.
Bai Ningning: “…”
Is this the legendary perspective of the dead?
She sat up and asked confusedly, "Where is this?"
Chu Ze: "Yanwangdian, you don't remember anything?"
Bai Ningning glanced around and finally landed her gaze on Geng Yiyi: "Why are you here?"
Geng Yiyi said vaguely: "I was a little worried about you, so I followed you. I'll explain the details to you when I get back."
Bai Ningning nodded and looked at Chu Ze again: "Is the door solved?"
Chu Ze wondered: "Have you really forgotten everything? Do you remember what you were thinking at that time?"
Bai Ningning thought about it carefully and answered seriously, "I felt uncomfortable. My way was blocked again. I wanted to say 'Whoever stands in my way will die', but then I remembered that they were all ghosts, dead as hell. I got stuck just before I could say that, and it made me feel even more uncomfortable..."
Chu Ze: “…”
[Hilarious! My dad is so mad he wants to hit me!]
[Dad’s OS: You’re getting angry just because of this lame excuse? ? ]
[It can only be said that the talented bloodline faction suppressed the hardworking faction. Ningning's reason for explosive growth is strange, but his father can only upgrade step by step with great difficulty.]
Bai Ningning looked at Chu Ze, who still had a calm expression as if nothing had to do with him, but her head was slightly lowered. How could she be angry?
Bai Ningning asked: "Are you angry?"
Chu Ze turned his head away: "No!"
Although his tone was a little more urgent than usual, he said he was not angry anymore. The barrage was indeed deceiving her again.
Bai Ningning went straight to the point: "The Underworld is just an empty shell now, right? When you encountered a dangerous situation, your first reaction was to go on your own, without even considering going to District 4 to call for help."
"This...ah..." Chu Ze scratched his head awkwardly, his eyes wandering, not daring to look Bai Ningning in the eye.
Bai Ningning: "Don't lie to me. I refuse to be the King of Hell not because I'm afraid of trouble and difficulties, so I won't be fooled by your promises."
Chu Ze rarely showed a serious expression and said, "The situation in the underworld is not what you think, but it is indeed due to some special reasons... I will explain it to you later."
Bai Ningning nodded: "Then I'll go back."
Chu Hanzhou was confused and tried to persuade him to stay: "You're going back so early? The night is still long, and the underworld can't do without you now, right?"
Geng Yiyi pointed at her finger awkwardly: "Can you stay a little longer? I haven't seen him yet..."
She heard that this was the underworld, and waited for a long time, but she never saw the Black Impermanence she had been longing for.
Bai Ningning didn't give him a chance to discuss it: "If you don't go back now, you'll be discovered."
As she spoke, she drew a circle in the air with her index finger, and a portal appeared where she drew the circle.
"I'm in a hurry to get back. Don't worry, I'll come again tomorrow if I have the chance."
After she finished speaking, she took Qing Huai and Geng Yiyi back.
Chu Hanzhou watched the portal close in shock for a while before looking at Chu Ze.
Chu Ze shrugged: "Go back with Xiao Yan. Staying here for too long is not good for your health. You are different from them, so it's best not to come."
Chu Hanzhou's stunned point was obviously not what Chu Ze understood. He pointed at the place where Bai Ningning had just left and asked, "Did you teach her how to open the portal?"
"Why didn't I notice it just now..." Chu Ze slapped his forehead violently, trying to use violence to wake himself up a little, "Could it be that this is also a skill that Yan Wang was born with? Or is she just so talented that she can learn it by herself after wearing it a few times?"
The more Chu Ze thought about it, the angrier he got. "She said she didn't believe in empty promises, but she made one for me before she left, didn't she? She said she'd find a chance to come tomorrow, but isn't that just a polite way of saying we'll never see each other again?"
Chu Hanzhou recalled Bai Ningning's straightforward and perfunctory attitude towards guests that night, and persuaded his father: "No, Ningning is not the kind of person who is polite..."
Chu Ze: "Hmm?"
Chu Hanzhou was in a delicate mood: "She said she would come again, so she must have come. She also just kicked us out when she didn't like us."
"..." Chu Ze patted his shoulder, "Young man, you seem to have a story. Tell it to make me happy?"
Chu Hanzhou: "..."
Bai Ningning returned to the room, opened her eyes, and found Qinghuai still staring at her.
Bai Ningning wondered: "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Qing Huai asked: "You really don't remember anything?"
Bai Ningning thought carefully for a while, still puzzled: "I have some impression. What do you want to ask? I don't think I did anything excessive at that time."
Qing Huai: “…”
They've pushed him into a corner.
never mind.
He doesn't bother with the younger generation.
Geng Yiyi complained quietly, "I think he's holding a grudge. You were the one controlling the purple ripples on the ground, weren't you? They disappeared after you fainted—and then this thing forced him into a corner, making him stand against the wall as punishment. He felt really wronged."
Qing Huai listened to her exaggerated description, and his anger was boiling again - who was fuming? Who was wronged?!
Bai Ningning scratched her hair. "I don't quite remember. I couldn't control that thing. It just floated on its own... But didn't I leave some space for you? I tried my best."
Qing Huai: “…”
You might as well not explain.
Too perfunctory.
Bai Ningning was hesitating whether to continue sleeping or go out to say hello when she heard a knock on the door from Yuan Muyang.
Yuan Muyang knocked on the door and shouted, "Ningning? Are you awake? Open the door, something's going on."
Geng Yiyi got angry when she heard his voice - it was this man who prevented her from seeing Hei Wuchang. If he hadn't come knocking on the door, she could have waited a little longer in the underworld!
Geng Yiyi opened the door angrily: "What are you shouting for? Are you calling for my soul?"
Yuan Muyang was stunned for a moment and looked up at the room number. Isn’t this Bai Ningning’s room?
Bai Ningning peeked out from behind Geng Yiyi: "What's wrong?"
Although she was in an active mental state, she was physically very sleepy. Her eyelids were about to stick together, and she yawned involuntarily, as if she was about to fall asleep in the next second.
Yuan Muyang: "Something happened... Why are you two together?"
Geng Yiyi rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "You're the one who knocked on the door in the middle of the night, woke everyone up, and then ran off. I was worried because it was so dark outside, so I came to watch over little darling Ningning. What's the problem?"
Yuan Muyang nodded and said to Bai Ningning, "The Ghost Gate just opened, and many evil spirits have come out of this area. You'd better not go out recently. Be careful. Call me if anything happens."
Geng Yiyi pointed and grumbled, "Isn't that the problem with your metaphysical community? Instead of catching ghosts, you're restricting the freedom of movement of ordinary people. You're idle all day long, only knowing how to disturb ordinary people's sleep!"
Yuan Muyang pretended not to hear and handed Bai Ningning a talisman: "Stick it on the head of the bed. Go to sleep. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay, thank you." Bai Ningning took the talisman with half-closed eyes, waved her hand weakly, and then closed the door.
Bai Ningning yawned again: "No, I'm still sleepy, I have to go to bed."
Geng Yiyi found a comfortable place to sit down: "Okay, I'll keep watch for you, I don't need to sleep."
"Go ahead." Bai Ningning casually stuck the talisman on the head of the bed, pulled the quilt over her and fell asleep.
In the room next door to the three Chu brothers, Chu Xisen finally waited for his brothers to wake up and asked, "How are you?"
The two brothers looked at each other with different expressions.
Chu Hanzhou: "It can be considered smooth sailing... although there were a lot of problems along the way."
Chu Yuyan: "Is it a blessing in disguise? If this accident hadn't happened, Ningning probably wouldn't want to stay in the underworld. She seems to be really afraid of ghosts."
"I don't understand..." Chu Xisen pulled his hair in confusion, looking sad. "Yuan Muyang knocked on the door before. He might have suspected us."
Chu Yuyan chuckled: "It doesn't matter. I'm not suspected. At most, they'll investigate you. But you're not afraid of being investigated."
Chu Xisen: “…Ah?”
Isn't this just pitting your brother?
Chu Yuyan looked at his eldest brother and asked, "You spent the most time with Ningning tonight, right? What do you think?"
Chu Hanzhou hesitated for two seconds and said, "Hmm... She is really very cute and innocent."
Chu Yuyan: “?”
Chu Xisen: “?”
What's with this subtle, boastful tone?
Chu Xisen coughed lightly and reminded him with a provocative expression, "I should be the one who spends the most time with Ningning. After all, we filmed that variety show for quite a while."
Chu Yuyan's face was cold, pouring cold water on the two of them: "I advise you to face the facts. She acted very repulsive to us today, right?"
“…………”
That sentence silenced everyone in the room.
The three brothers looked at each other, thinking with heavy expressions how to change their image in front of Bai Ningning.
Chu Hanzhou rubbed his brows and reflected, "Were we too presumptuous?... If three people suddenly barged in and claimed to be my brother, I wouldn't have had a good impression."
Chu Yuyan smiled grimly: "I might give them a bad luck spell to make them unlucky for three days."
Chu Xisen blinked blankly, completely confused: "Why? Isn't it good to have a brother?"
Chu Hanzhou sighed for his brother's intelligence and comforted his brothers: "Forget it, it's okay, think about it, she is not very polite to Dad."
“………………”
The three brothers looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
Why does it feel worse the more I comfort myself?
