Chapter 178 Doubts



"I came in even though the door was open."

"Shouldn't you be training with them at this time?"

Qiu Shui propped her head up with her hand, the weight of the fingers on her shoulder pressing down on her.

"You've got it wrong."

Yue Qunshu's tone was cold.

Qiu Shui raised her head, her gaze falling on the pile of metal in front of the sofa. She seemed to see Yue Qunshu's blurry face behind her.

"I won't scare you anymore, I'm leaving now."

Yue Qunshu released her, and Qiu Shui's body sank into the sofa.

"What exactly do you want from me?"

“Nothing. But you, you’re covered in cold sweat. Are you sick? If you are, you should rest more,” Yue Qunshu said.

"I'm not feeling well."

Qiu Shui wanted to sit on the ground, and the whole world seemed to be shaking.

I helped you to bed.

A pair of hands were placed on her arms, and Qiu Shui felt her arms being gripped very tightly.

As Qiu Shui took those few steps toward the bed, her body trembled.

Could it be that someone mentioned her name in the "hellish business," and Yue Qunshu appeared here precisely to kill her?

The thought kept swirling in her mind. Yue Qunshu helped her to bed, and she quickly changed her shoes. Yue Qunshu then helped her lift the blanket and cover herself with it.

"I caught a cold, so I need to sweat it out."

A deep, steady male voice sounded from behind.

At this moment, Qiu Shui remained in a position with her back to Yue Qunshu, feeling extremely uneasy. She couldn't help but shrink into the quilt.

The footsteps by the bedside fell silent for a while before gradually fading away. Then the sound of the glass door closing rang out, and Qiu Shui suddenly sat up and threw off the covers.

"Butler, how did he get in?!"

The electronic butler floated in the air and transformed into a metal sphere.

"I have no idea."

"Didn't you notice him?!"

"There was no human body temperature or breathing sound in the room just now," the housekeeper said.

This sentence startled her again.

Qiu Shui's breath hitched. Everything that had just happened felt like a dream. She couldn't tell whether Yue Qunshu really existed or if it was just her imagination.

"Is the data still there?"

The butler landed beside her.

"The data has been lost. The data obtained a minute ago was accidentally erased by a more powerful system. I have tracked down the location of that system and erased it."

This was the first time Qiu Shui had heard such a cold, electronic sound.

"The system owner who stole the data is being searched. I will tell Miss Luo Xiaoyu about what just happened."

"Father, I want a purple Moon Chaser!"

Futakuchi-onna shook Qiushui's arm.

"SPs aren't something you can just have whenever you want." Qiu Shui opened a wooden box, inside which were only twenty magatama pieces.

"Where did Father's money go?" the hair-eating ghost asked curiously.

He remembered that his father had saved up quite a bit, at least a thousand.

"I bought a nice mansion in Heian-kyo, and we'll move there in a few days."

Qiu Shui closed the lid and said.

"ah?!"

A chorus of exclamations erupted in the courtyard.

"When we first came here, didn't we say that we would definitely stay in one of those clean and bright mansions in Heian-kyo?"

Qiu Shui looked up at the little ones who had always been with her. Now, their wish could finally come true.

The hair-eating ghost took a puff of his pipe, revealing pieces of high-quality tobacco leaves. He blew a thick cloud of white smoke towards the gate.

He was a little reluctant to leave.

"How long ago did Father begin preparing for this?" the Snow Woman asked.

"A long, long time ago."

Qiu Shui touched the shiny wooden box. The box was empty, and their good days had begun.

As she entered the room and placed the wooden box in the cabinet, a chill ran down her spine. Qiu Shui turned around, and Xue Nu floated in the air.

"You've arrived."

"Father, are you planning to place the shikigami left behind by that lord here?" Yuki-onna sat upright in front of her.

“It’s not resettlement; we can still live here. This is our first home, and Heian-kyo is our second home.”

Both homes require shikigami to stay behind, and the forty-odd shikigami brought by Yaobikuni can be distributed among them.

The back mountain won't be crowded, and you can live in a clean and bright house in Heian-kyo.

"But what about those little shikigami that haven't grown up yet?" Yuki-onna said worriedly.

As they were talking, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open, revealing the expectant faces of the two women.

"Father! I heard my dyed skin is especially cute. Father Qiushui, could you give me a little sister?"

Qiushui said helplessly, "Not many people use the dyed skins in Heian-kyo."

She ran out of money to summon shikigami.

"Father, can you lend me some money? That man from Qianshan is very wealthy." Futakuchi-onna looked expectantly at her again.

Qiu Shui: "..."

"The chances of getting SP skins are higher in the next two days, Dad, why don't you give it a try?" Yingcao walked over with a dandelion in her hand.

Is the firefly grass like this too?

How much do you like your friends of different colors?

Not wanting to disappoint them, Qiu Shui reluctantly made a phone call to Qian Shan Mu Xue.

Fifteen minutes later...

Ibaraki brought over the magatama.

"Um, thank you, ma'am."

Noticing Ibaraki's strange look, Shusui said something politely.

"I know."

Ibaraki-dōji nodded understandingly.

What do you know?

"Ibaraki, why aren't you leaving yet?"

When the Great Tengu called him from outside, Ibaraki-dōji hurriedly went out.

Taking out the magatama from the box, Qiushui stepped into the summoning pool and began the summoning process.

"Hurry, hurry, as you wish!"

"brush……"
