Free Web NovelBai Kai had always felt that he was quite adept at dealing with women, definitely at the level of a women's friend and a public heartthrob.
However, when the target became Lu Yibei, he realized just how different the mindset is when facing women compared to daughters.
For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he ultimately chose to leave the scene first.
Just a moment before Lu Yibei fully woke up, he instantly released the full power of his Spirit Mark, accelerating to the extreme, turning into a silver-white shadow, pulling open the door, and shooting out with a 'whoosh'.
The door of the room opened and closed in a flash, and when Bai Kai steadied himself in the corridor, his heart was still pounding wildly.
It felt like a heart attack.
No matter who it was, attempting to hide a Strange Tale within the Si Ye Hui Headquarters of a city was as thrilling and dangerous as sneaking into the White House to beat up the founding father.
Although that might be an exaggeration, it was a situation where one move could affect everything.
Lu Yibei's dangerous Spiritual Energy fluctuation, combined with the room full of calamity water, if detected, could very likely attract Psychic from several nearby cities to surround and eliminate her.
Bai Kai patted his chest, forcing himself to calm down.
In his opinion, what he was about to do now was one of the craziest things he had ever done in his life.
Of course, the other few were done with Lu Yibei's Old Dad...
Damn Lu Ming, my little life will sooner or later be lost in the hands of you Lu family members!
After his emotions calmed down slightly, Bai Kai cursed fiercely in his heart, and then a proud and intoxicated smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
They say a daughter is a father's intimate little cotton-padded jacket, Lu Ming, you will ultimately lose on the matter of who has a better relationship with Xiao Bei!
Haha, who told you not to live a few more years?
Bai Kai thought excitedly, but a sense of sorrow gradually rose in his heart. After a silent sigh, his eyes also became slightly moist.
And then...
"Slap—!"
He slapped himself hard, the sound clear and loud.
Damn! Now is not the time for melancholy!
Bai Kai collected his thoughts and immediately began to act according to the plan he had just made. He formed hand seals, rapidly changed the marks, silently chanted the Spell in his heart, and completed all actions in one go.
"Jade Tower Golden Gate, Iron-Cast Wall, Dragon's Roar, Lion's Roar, Tiger's Roar, Hundred-Foot Fence, Forbidden Realm, Three Beasts' Lock!"
"Buzz—!"
As Bai Kai finished chanting the last line of the Spell, a low buzzing sound echoed in the air. Golden, silver, and bronze light, wrapped in sword energy, shot towards the iron door in front, slowly sinking into it and disappearing without a trace.
The moment the light of the seal Spell disappeared, he quickly raised a hand, bit the tip of his left thumb, and wrote his name with blood in a flourish.
After adding a blood mark to the seal Spell, Bai Kai's forehead was already covered in fine beads of sweat.
Under such urgent circumstances, rapidly casting a Spell, adding a blood mark, and ensuring that other members of the Night Watch wouldn't discover it, consumed a great deal of his Spiritual Energy.
"Phew—! This is simply more tiring than a night of passion with five little internet celebrities!"
"Fortunately, nothing went wrong. So next, it's time to go find Fat Er Ye to buy some things..."
Bai Kai supported himself against the wall, looked around, and after confirming that no one had noticed the anomaly and rushed over, he muttered a few words to himself, his gaze slightly narrowed, and turned to walk out of the Night Watch.
According to his thoughts, the calamity water in that room had to be thoroughly dealt with.
To ensure Lu Yibei could safely leave the surveillance range of the Hua City Night Watch, he would need to get a high-quality Peeling Skin doll to create the illusion that she was still in the room, thus gaining enough time.
During the time gained, he must first figure out if she could restore her original appearance before making further plans.
If she could, he would use this time to help her restore her original appearance and hide her Spiritual Energy, and they would have to make long-term plans for the future.
If she couldn't, he would have to use this time to run as far as possible, and during this period, he would have to arrange a place for her to hide and evade pursuit.
————
A moment later.
Bai Kai walked towards the outside of the Night Watch. Thinking about the cost of helping Lu Yibei overcome the crisis, his heart ached.
After this, I won't be able to go out and pick up girls for half a year, or I'll have to contact Auntie Zhang... No way, no way, I can still work hard for a few years!
As soon as Bai Kai thought of Auntie Zhang throwing out the five essential items for a rich woman's happiness in front of him, a chill ran down his spine. He shook his head violently, driving the Nightmare-like scene from his mind.
He walked along, and just as he reached the vicinity of the rusty sign that read "Huacheng Folk Culture Research Administration," he encountered the person he least wanted to meet—Jiang Li.
Bai Kai, "..."
After a brief stunned, he steadied his mind and continued to walk forward. At a time like this, hiding would only attract unnecessary suspicion.
It would be great if she didn't talk to me. Bai Kai thought.
"Bai Kai? Wait a moment!"
You talk too much... Bai Kai cursed fiercely in his heart, and the moment he turned to look at Jiang Li, his face changed, revealing a smile.
"What's wrong? Is there something?"
Jiang Li looked up at the sun, withdrew her gaze, and said indifferently, "Where are you going at this time? Has Lu Yibei's Spirit Mark been completed? Where is he?"
"He..." Bai Kai's expression suddenly became serious, and he frowned, "The Spirit Mark has been completed, but there was a slight problem. Aren't I rushing to buy materials to help him solve it?"
There was indeed a problem with Lu Yibei's Spirit Mark drawing. Bai Kai didn't plan to lie. Any lie would be exposed, but a part of the truth would not.
"Is that so?" Jiang Li propped her chin, nodded thoughtfully, her eyes upturned, and she glared at Bai Kai with disdain.
"I told you a long time ago that you should give Lu Yibei the most basic Spirit Mark. Excessive help can only be counterproductive."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Bai Kai said repeatedly, "Didn't I realize my mistake now and am trying to fix it?"
"Mm." Jiang Li nodded, stepped aside, and softly added, "Go quickly. If you need any help, let me know anytime."
After all, Lu Yibei is also my subordinate. Jiang Li added in her heart.
The situation was urgent, so Bai Kai didn't say much more to Jiang Li and quickened his pace, running towards the outside of the Night Watch. He had only run a few steps when he saw a stylish Koenigsegg Agera speeding towards the alley entrance in front of the Night Watch gate with the roar of its engine, and it stopped there.
Li Xuan, dressed in a deep purple custom suit and with a warm smile on his face, got out of the driver's seat. Seeing Bai Kai running towards him from a distance, he waved his hand.
"Yo, isn't this Old Bai? Where are you rushing off to in such a hurry? Oh, right, isn't today the day that Lu Yibei person is drawing his Spirit Mark? How is the situation? Nothing went wrong, right?"
"Get lost!"
Bai Kai roared in a low voice, and the moment he brushed past Li Xuan, his gaze swept over him fiercely.
At that instant, Li Xuan read the words "Your tires are gone" in his eyes, and his face instantly turned pale.
"You..." He opened his mouth, wanting to say something to Bai Kai, but he saw Bai Kai suddenly slap the hood of his beloved car with both hands, and amidst a teeth-aching sound, he did a goat leap-like posture, leaping up and leaving two deep scratches.
"Damn you, Bai Kai! Just you wait!"
"I'll show you sooner or later!"
Li Xuan cursed and walked forward, pausing slightly when he passed by Jiang Li. He cleared his throat and said indifferently, "Ahem, you saw everything just now. He made the first move. He was heartless, so don't blame me for being unjust! Don't say I'm targeting Lu Yibei in the future."
"Oh."
Jiang Li glanced at Li Xuan and replied indifferently, then walked away with a limp, leaning on her cane.
Li Xuan withdrew his gaze from her, rolled his eyes, adjusted his clothes, and walked towards the interior of the Night Watch.
However, before he could even cross the courtyard garden, he heard an unusual sound from behind him.
"Crack—Pfft—!"
He froze for a moment, his face instantly turning pale. He turned back sharply and only saw Jiang Li squatting next to his beloved car, holding the cane with the three-edged spike protruding from the top in both hands, constantly poking at the tire.
As if sensing Li Xuan's gaze, Jiang Li turned her head towards him expressionlessly, a strange smile squeezed onto her face.
She did indeed just want to smile slightly to show "friendliness," but she hadn't smiled for too long, and the smile she finally managed to squeeze out was full of incongruity, looking dark and provocative.
Li Xuan's mouth twitched, his face spasmed, and his expression immediately lost control.
"..."
"Damn! Damn! Damn!"
"It's hopeless, the Hua City Night Watch is hopeless! There's not a single normal person! I'll write a letter to apply for a transfer tomorrow!"
Li Xuan finally couldn't hold back and exploded, shouting hysterically, swinging his arms forcefully, and striding inside.
Jiang Li squatted on the ground, looking towards the corridor in the direction Li Xuan had left, her gaze deepening.
Lu Yibei... should be fine, right? Jiang Li thought.
————
Now there's a big problem!
Goodbye, it's hopeless, just wait for death!
In the room filled with grey-black smoke, Lu Yibei lay on the bed in a large spread-eagle shape, her white hair and slender limbs hanging down, her eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.
I actually turned into a Strange Tale in the Hua City Night Watch Headquarters?
So the question is, can I save my life by selling my body?

Facts have proven that when a chatterbox loses their dream, they won't even spare themselves.
----
Five minutes ago.
Lu Yibei woke up in the hospital bed, opened her eyes, and her mind was blank.
I am Lu Yibei, currently at the Night Watch. Something seemed to go wrong during the process of drawing the Spirit Mark.
After quickly answering the three philosophical questions, she suddenly felt a throbbing pain in her brain.
Immediately after, the scene of her using a high-intensity Spell in a semi-conscious state in her dream to kill Ifrit flashed before her eyes.
But what happened after that? She rubbed her aching temples.
Right, I also saw Du Sixian, as for the rest... the rest, she couldn't remember anything.
Right, where is Shui Ge?
Thinking this, Lu Yibei suddenly sat up, feeling something in her chest jiggle, as if something soft and elastic had bounced up from her chest and then bounced back.
She subconsciously lowered her head to look, and the moment she saw that rounded, fair curve, her heart trembled, and she frantically grabbed the clothes that were about to slip down.
With both hands covering the clothes on her chest, she sat sideways on the hospital bed, glancing around furtively, and then silently put on her clothes.
Her original height was close to 1.8 meters, but after being transformed into a Strange Tale, she had shrunk by about ten centimeters. However, after putting on the clothes, they fit surprisingly well. The hem of the clothes just covered her private parts, and at the same time, it made her legs appear longer.
After putting on her clothes, she immediately noticed a slight discomfort. After a moment of stunned, she pulled open her collar and looked down.
"Holy crap!?"
Lu Yibei had seen her body after being transformed into a Strange Tale countless times. Although she still felt too ashamed to look directly at it, she no longer felt too surprised.
What truly shocked and surprised her was that a half-real, half-illusory sword blade, covered with crimson Spirit Marks, was actually stuck in her chest.
Who could accept being drugged, waking up after a nap, and finding a sword stuck in their chest? freewebnσvel.cøm
The long sword blade pierced her body about two inches below her collarbone, but it did not come out from her back, as if her body had swallowed it.
Hidden by her clothes, the remaining hilt was nestled between the faintly visible peaks of two snow-capped mountains, always reminding one of some unpleasant scenes.
What the heck is this? What's going on? What should I do?
Just as Lu Yibei's emotions were in disarray and she was having her three philosophical questions, a tingling sensation suddenly came from her chest. The next moment, along with a squirming of the flesh in her chest, the sword blade continued to merge into her body.
Until the end of the hilt, it disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, that hideous scar also completely healed, leaving only the smooth, fair skin before her eyes.
The final step of drawing the Spirit Mark was completed at this moment.
After the sword blade merged into her body, an indescribable strange feeling came over her. Immediately after, Lu Yibei felt that something deep within her body was ignited. A scorching energy erupted from the inside out, spreading throughout her body.
As if slightly tipsy from drinking, a hint of pink also appeared beneath her fair skin.
As the scorching energy within her body gradually cooled down, a little calamity water slowly seeped out from beneath her skin and dripped onto the floor. Immediately after, her eyes blurred.
Immediately after, as if coming from the depths of her consciousness, she heard an ancient murmur that seemed to come from the primeval era, and a hint of red also quietly rose from the tips of her hair.
"Traveling north of the red water, looking south from Kunlun, there is a graceful river, and the water gives birth to beauty..."
Before the ancient murmur was finished, another voice sounded immediately after, covering it up, and the red color at the tips of her hair also dimmed accordingly.
"It is both mist and stars, it is her child, and it is also the lips that blow out the lamp in the darkness..."
The voice was ethereal and clear, like a silver bell, making one think of a delicate and lovely young girl. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
The two voices intertwined in Lu Yibei's mind, constantly colliding, and finally, all that remained in her ears was a series of piercing high-frequency noises.
The next moment, accompanied by a dizzying sense of weightlessness and the fleeting sight of bizarre and colorful scenes.
She saw towering green mountains, eerie ancient castles, ancient black basalt steles, and more images that could not be described by normal language or explained by normal logic.
These images disintegrated into abstract, complex, intertwined information before her eyes, merging into her mind.
Just as Lu Yibei felt her head was about to explode from the overwhelming information, everything vanished before her eyes like a bubble illuminated by sunlight.
Lu Yibei sat quietly by the hospital bed for a moment, experiencing the fragments extracted from the complex information. She could clearly feel the special abilities brought to her by the Spirit Mark drawing, and there was an urge to try them out immediately.
But not now... Lu Yibei said to herself in her heart.
After the residual power of the Spirit Mark drawing gradually dissipated, and she calmed down for a moment, she realized how delicate her current situation was.
As a Strange Tale, she was currently inside the Hua City Night Watch!
Although she had done her fair share of "illegal and disorderly" things during the past two months, they were all done secretly.
She patted her face with both hands, forcing herself to calm down, and then tiptoed towards the main door of the room. Just as she reached the door, about half a meter away from the iron door, the door emitted a dazzling light.
In an instant, the roar of tigers and dragons sounded in her ears, and three colors of strong light, gold, silver, and bronze, appeared.
Lu Yibei felt a hint of danger in the overwhelming light and quickly took a step back. The strong light on the iron door also subsided as she moved away.
It seems this room is sealed by some kind of Spell... Lu Yibei muttered to herself, staring at the cold iron door. Then she remembered the sword blade that had pierced her chest when she woke up, and her face turned pale. An uneasy thought quietly arose in her heart.
In an instant, she had concocted a plot where something went wrong during Shui Ge's process of drawing the Spirit Mark for her, causing her body to become a Strange Tale.
Immediately after, Shui Ge decided to eliminate her for the greater good, enduring the grief in his heart, and stabbed her, no... inserted her, no... pierced her with a sword.
Then, after mistakenly thinking she was dead, Shui Ge sealed the room, left, and went to inform the other members of the Night Watch to handle the aftermath, such was the plot.
Given his gay relationship with Old Dad, although the probability is extremely low, it's also possible that he saw me as someone to entrust his thoughts to, and now that he sees I've suddenly become a girl, and a Strange Tale at that, maybe he was enraged and stabbed me to death? Lu Yibei thought.
"..."
No, no, Lu Yibei, you can't think like that. Shui Ge is so good to you, how could he be so cruel?
At most, he would just...
"Pat, pat!" Lu Yibei clapped her cheeks with both hands, forcing herself to stop thinking before her thoughts continued to spiral towards the worst-case scenario.
Then.
She quietly lay back on the bed, spread out in a large 'big' shape, emptying her mind, as if waiting to die. But soon, a pile of garbage thoughts appeared in her mind.
"Click!"
Just as Lu Yibei's thoughts were wandering in the sea of garbage thoughts, the door of the room suddenly made a light sound.
Someone had entered.
Before the person who entered the room appeared, Lu Yibei had a strange premonition. Her eyes, which hadn't burned in a long time, suddenly felt hot for a moment. She sat up abruptly and looked at the corner of the room.
Someone would appear there.
The strange thought had just flashed through Lu Yibei's mind, and before she could react, a silver light entered her vision, disappearing in an instant, revealing Bai Kai's figure.
Is this... is this predicting?
Lu Yibei was startled. Before she could recover, Bai Kai threw something at her.
"Put it on!" Bai Kai said.
Lu Yibei subconsciously caught it with both hands and found that it was a ridiculously short floral print bodycon dress.
Lu Yibei, "???"
What does this mean?
Even if you discovered my life-threatening secret, you can't play with me like this!?
You are my godfather, not that kind of "godfather"!
Lu Yibei muttered to herself, complaining, "Shui Ge, I really misjudged you. I always thought you were only professional with women and true love with men, I never expected..."
"Stop talking nonsense! And these! I borrowed these from the sisters at the club!" Bai Kai said, throwing a few more things over.
"Tap, tap!"
Lu Yibei followed the slight sounds of the things landing and saw eyeshadow, eyebrow pencil, lipstick, and a pair of red-soled high heels with thin, long heels.
"..."
Shui Ge, you've changed, you've really changed. You never used to...
"Hurry up, do you still want to leave the Night Watch alive?"
"Yes..."
Lu Yibei bit her red lip and answered weakly.
"Then are you going to wear it or not?"
"..."
After a moment of struggling with her eyes, Lu Yibei gritted her teeth.
"Wear it!"
