Free Web NovelLu Yibei once saw an article on the Website titled "Detailed Solutions for Dealing with Facehugger Attacks".
At that time, she scoffed at that article, didn't even glance at it, and clicked the top right corner.
Attacked by that thing and there's still a chance?
There's definitely no saving, but if you talk about solutions, there actually are some.
To avoid being killed by the Facehugger, you just need to kill the attacked person one step ahead.
But, she obviously couldn't kill herself, so she started to regret it a bit. If she had known she would encounter this situation today, she should have read that article carefully.
...
The Little Girl rode on Lu Yibei like an old friend, not treating herself as an outsider at all, which made Lu Yibei quite annoyed.
Taking advantage of the moment she was rummaging around on her, Lu Yibei ruthlessly threw her off, without considering whether she would get injured as a result.
In her opinion, a Miss who could jump nearly 1.7 meters high from a standing position couldn't be a normal human. A little fall shouldn't injure her, especially since she also had Spiritual Energy fluctuations on her body.
However, Lu Yibei completely underestimated the combat power of this brat.
Just as she threw the Little Girl out, the moment she landed, a pair of fair and rosy little feet lightly tapped the ground, and her figure immediately shot up again, opening her arms...
"Plop—!" and she hugged Lu Yibei's head again.
The Little Girl hugged Lu Yibei, wrapping her arms around her neck, her flat chest pressing against her face, making her feel a faint sense of suffocation.
She didn't know where she got so much strength from, holding on tighter than He Jinyin locked the Grand Senior Brother. For a moment, Lu Yibei was unbearable, filled with shame and indignation.
"Get off! Mmm... don't... Mmm... Professor save me..." Lu Yibei struggled, intermittently shouting.
Just as Lu Yibei called out to Professor Ma, the Little Girl suddenly whispered next to her ear, "Elder brother, don't you recognize Meng Meng anymore? Didn't we have a lot of fun before?"
After speaking, she revealed a sly smile at an angle invisible to Professor Ma and Liu Banxian.
Meng Meng? Who is Meng... Wait!
Could she be Ju Meng?
In an instant, a clap of thunder exploded °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° in Lu Yibei's mind, her ears buzzed, and she immediately gave up resisting.
She originally thought this was a little demon from after 2020, but it turned out to be an old demon from after 3020 BCE.
Wouldn't that mean she couldn't possibly win?
After experiencing many events and witnessing a large number of urban legend, Lu Yibei clearly realized how terrifying this Smelly Girl, who had once stayed at her house and refused to leave, truly was.
She took advantage of the favorable location and human factors, using a clever method to snatch the fruits of victory from Plague Tai Sui, barely becoming the King of Weird Tales within a hundred li radius of Hua City.
Since ancient times, starting a business has always been easy, but maintaining it is difficult.
Ju Meng's dominion is more than seven times hers, including places like Tang City, which is full of ancient tombs and urban legend. For hundreds or thousands of years, no urban legend have dared to cause trouble. She is much stronger than the current her; even among Calamity-level urban legend, it's likely that more than half would be hammered into the ground by her.
However, someone as strong as Ju Meng has now been backstabbed. One can imagine how terrifying her enemy is.
Now, getting involved with her, she wouldn't even know how she died.
What kind of cursed fate is this! Why am I so unlucky? Meeting her at this time, I'm afraid I'll be dragged down and killed by her. Lu Yibei thought.
While Lu Yibei was worrying unnecessarily, Ju Meng turned and gave Liu Banxian a sweet smile. Liu Banxian saw it and felt chills all over, as if he were naked on a cold winter day in the twelfth lunar month.
"Grandpa, I want to go upstairs and play with Elder brother for a while. Can you handle this old shameless guy down here?"
Could I dare say no? Liu Banxian muttered inwardly, forcing out a loving smile, and nodded, "Okay, okay, you go! Have fun."
After speaking, a flicker of sympathy flashed in Liu Banxian's eyes.
Given Lord Ju Meng's perverse willfulness and mischievous personality, this kid would likely be played with until he's at least half-crippled.
However, why is Lord Ju Meng so close to this kid? Liu Banxian thought, puzzled.
"Yay!" Ju Meng cheered, crawling from in front of Lu Yibei to behind her like a slippery loach, riding on her shoulder, and grabbing her ears with her hands on the left and right, "Let's go, Elder brother, let's go upstairs to play?"
"..."
Lu Yibei glanced out of the corner of her eye at the excited Ju Meng, secretly clenching her back teeth.
Fine! I'll endure it, who told me I can't beat her?
Thinking this, she silently stood up and walked towards the second floor of Chunfeng Residence, following the direction pointed by Ju Meng's pink little hand.
"..."
Watching Lu Yibei's back as she carried Ju Meng away, Professor Ma was speechless for a moment.
Why is it like this?
I was clearly here first, whether it was getting to know her or showing her kindness, I was clearly first.
I'm so envious! I also want to be ridden like a horse by a cute Little Girl. Professor Ma thought.
Liu Banxian looked at Professor Ma, as if he read his thoughts from his somewhat dazed expression, then lowered his head to look at his bulging abdomen and sighed silently.
No, Elder brother, you wouldn't truly want to get involved with this great divinity...
----
Chunfeng Residence second floor.
Lu Yibei propped her chin with one hand, observing the small figure sitting on the rattan chair, looking harmless, lost in thought.
She seems even smaller than when she was in Hua City before?
Tang City is her dominion, and her main body is also here. Logically, within this range, she should be the strongest urban legend.
Why is this the case? Is it because she suffered damage from being backstabbed, or is it that the smaller she is, the closer she is to her peak state? It's like the principle that the pinker the hair, the harder the hit.
While Lu Yibei was secretly thinking, Ju Meng suddenly asked, "Speaking of which, why are you in Tang City? Is it because you received my distress message?"
"Distress message?" Lu Yibei tilted her head with a puzzled look.
"It's that message 'Me, ally, send money!'" Ju Meng blinked her watery big eyes and explained, "I had Turtle Elder mass-send it to all allies."
"..."
Remembering a certain suspected telecommunication fraud text message that she had deleted and blocked the number of, Lu Yibei was momentarily speechless.
Anyone who believes that kind of text message is an idiot!
In short, just pretend you never saw it.
After a brief silence, she shrugged and said, "Didn't see it. I came with the Professor as an assistant and enforcer to participate in the East Yi Culture Research Project Group."
"What's so good about researching that thing?" Ju Meng pouted like a child hearing that adults were going to study her toy, "If you really want to know, just ask me directly?"
"You mean research you?" Lu Yibei said dismissively.
What's there to research about you? In modern times, you'd just be smoking, drinking, and playing games all day. In ancient times, you'd probably only be playing Pitch-pot, horse racing, and visiting teahouses, right?
Tsk, no substance at all!
"Oh my—!" Ju Meng waved her pink little hand, unbuttoned a button on her qipao, and put her legs together, acting shy, "It's not impossible if you want to research me! But the prerequisite is..."
"Stop!" Cutting in before Ju Meng could make an exorbitant demand, Lu Yibei interrupted without hesitation, "I'm a law-abiding citizen, not interested in your type. I like the cold and mature big sister type."
With your current flat chest and short legs? Heh!
As she spoke, Lu Yibei glanced at Ju Meng's chest and the chubby little short legs revealed under her skirt. Although no expression appeared on her face, she showed a highly insulting, mocking look in her eyes.
"Damn it! Judging people with a dog's eyes!" Ju Meng said indignantly, "This old lady wasn't like this before! At least, she was, this... no, THIS big! Understand?"
Friendly Reminder: The Website is about to be revised, which may cause the loss of reading progress. Please save your "book shelf" and "reading record" in time (screenshots are recommended). We apologize for any inconvenience caused!
As she spoke, a pair of tender white chubby hands gestured two exaggerated curves in front of her chest.
Before? In other words, she's really not in a normal state now?
Lu Yibei narrowed her eyes slightly and probed, "Speaking of which, I went to the Tang City Si Ye Hui before, and they said you were attacked by an unknown force and your strength was severely damaged. Is that true?"
"Uh, why are you asking this?"
It's not that I don't trust you, I'm mainly worried you'll take the opportunity to bully me!
Ju Meng was calculating her little schemes, a hint of undetectable panic flashed in her eyes, then she immediately returned to normal, saying proudly, "This old lady, suffered a little injury, but it's nothing serious. I'll be able to kill my way back and rebuild the mountains and rivers soon!"
After speaking, she sighed silently in her heart.
It would be absolutely false to say she wasn't afraid of Cuan Yang's revival. After all, it was a urban legend born from the same source as her, and its Power completely suppressed hers.
However, the actual situation didn't allow her to show even a hint of weakness. If she fell, everyone in Taoyuan would suffer, so she had to appear strong enough in front of everyone.
But especially with Turtle Elder's fate unknown, her heart was filled with dark worry and confusion. Aside from Liu Banxian, she dared not easily contact anyone related to Taoyuan.
After the first assassination attempt, Ju Meng carefully considered all the details and concluded that without an insider guiding them, even if that group of top Psychic and urban legend were led by Cuan Yang's dependents, they couldn't have possibly infiltrated the depths of Taoyuan silently.
In other words, there were traitors within Taoyuan.
This was also one of the reasons why Ju Meng was so agitated upon seeing Lu Yibei.
Although Lu Yibei was a bit weaker than the members of Taoyuan scattered around Tang City, she was still a relatively reliable ally.
"Really?" Lu Yibei squinted at Ju Meng, tilting her head. "Then you should recover quickly! Tang City Si Ye Hui has already detected something unusual."
"About four days later, if you still haven't managed to maintain order in Tang City, they will activate the city barrier and blast the hell out of Taoyuan."
Hearing this, Ju Meng froze for a moment, then her gaze turned grim. She cursed fiercely, "Bah, this bunch of freeloaders! Usually, they slack off, goof around, and steal salaries under my protection, and at a time like this, they're actually kicking me while I'm down!"
"Just wait and see how I deal with them, especially that one named Shang Nanxing. I saw her wandering the streets, almost starving to death back then, and even took pity on her and fed her for five years. Truly heartless, it makes me so angry!"
If it were peacetime, shouldn't she have already gone over there with a knife to chop them up... Lu Yibei watched Ju Meng without saying a word. Only after she finished speaking did she nod and say, "Seeing you so energetic, I'm relieved. I'll go tell them to proceed according to the original plan."
"Anyway, you can resolve these troublesome matters in a short time, right? If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
Saying this, she turned around, making a move to leave.
Let's test her first. If she really leaves, that's good too!
Regardless of whether she can truly recover her strength in a short time, I don't want to get involved.
People will die! Lu Yibei thought.
Seeing this, Ju Meng's small face turned slightly pale. With a "swoosh," she leaped up from the rattan chair and pounced towards Lu Yibei with open arms.
Hearing the wind behind her, the prepared Lu Yibei dodged aside with a sidestep. Seeing Ju Meng miss her and fly past, a hint of slyness from a successful scheme just appeared in her eyes, and then her pupils slightly contracted.
"Flap—!"
Accompanied by a soft sound, a pair of pitch-black feathered wings suddenly unfolded behind Ju Meng. She circled in mid-air and flew towards her, hugging his head with a "splat!"
"You're not allowed to leave!"
"Mmm... mmm..." Lu Yibei tugged at the arms wrapped around her, letting out a groan.
Hearing the sound, Ju Meng froze for a moment. She climbed over his shoulder, straddled his neck with her legs, and sat on his shoulders.
"Phew—!" Lu Yibei, breathing fresh air again, let out a long sigh. She squinted at Ju Meng on her shoulder and said crossly, "What are you doing?"
"Oh, aren't I thinking for you?" Ju Meng said earnestly while rubbing Lu Yibei's head.
"Helping a deity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We're so close, I definitely have to give you a chance to get some benefits! Don't you agree?"
Lu Yibei, "..."
She needs my help? There's no reason!
Without being in a urban legend state, my Spiritual Energy fluctuation is only B+ at most. How could I possibly help her?
Could it be... Lu Yibei thought, narrowing her eyes slightly.
"How about this! While I'm recovering my strength, I'll reluctantly appoint you as my personal mount, the Great General. When I return to Taoyuan, I'll open my treasury wide, and you can choose from mountains of gold and silver. How does that sound?"
Personal ♦ what? Lu Yibei frowned. "Aren't you afraid it'll be uncomfortable? To tell you the truth, my body is quite good. Every morning at seven o'clock, I just can't sleep anymore."
"Heh heh!" Ju Meng sneered, glancing at Lu Yibei's lower body. "Oh, you're so confident? But, Sister, I can't sit on it!"
Lu Yibei, "..."
Being told such a thing by an old monster with the appearance of a porcelain doll, she felt immense humiliation.
As the saying goes, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated. She decided to stop pretending!
"You're actually seriously injured and very weak, completely lacking combat power, right?" Lu Yibei squinted at Ju Meng and said coldly. "I've been observing you since I saw you. Your Spiritual Energy fluctuation has never exceeded C-level."
Yes, the moment Lu Yibei entered Chunfeng Residence, accompanied by a slight warmth in her eyes, she had already detected a Spiritual Energy fluctuation of approximately C-level hidden within Chunfeng Residence.
Because that Spiritual Energy fluctuation was too weak, she didn't pay it much mind. She merely sent out ten Paper Cicada Immortals carrying Alchemy Dirty Bombs, ambushing them in the corners around Chunfeng Residence, waiting for orders.
When Ju Meng appeared, although she faintly felt that this Little Girl looked somewhat familiar, due to the Spiritual Energy fluctuation being too weak, she didn't connect her at all with that great deity whose every move sent Spiritual Energy fluctuations approaching Calamity-level.
After confirming Ju Meng's identity, Lu Yibei initially thought she was deliberately suppressing her Spiritual Energy fluctuation. But after a conversation and observation, combined with Mao Sanyou's statement from the morning... the result was intriguing.
According to Mao Sanyou, the blood Ju Meng spilled on the ring road, made into blood pudding, was enough to supply Tangcheng University with a day's worth of food. The fact that she could still jump around, fly up, and hug someone's face could actually be considered a miracle.
So there was only one truth: Ju Meng wasn't faking it; she was truly very weak now!
Pondering, Lu Yibei grabbed Ju Meng's wrist and secretly mobilized her Spiritual Energy.
Feeling the Spiritual Energy fluctuation within Lu Yibei become active, Ju Meng's face changed, and she exclaimed in surprise, "You dog thing, you weren't dealt with enough by Sister before, were you? Wait, you, what do you want to do?"
"Smelly Girl, have you ever cried for yourself in your life?" Lu Yibei said faintly, forcing a stiff, horrifying smile onto her face as if a corpse had just come back to life.
Ju Meng, "?"
"Such a cute Little Girl like you, a beating would surely make you cry for a long time, right?"
Ju Meng, "???"
The next moment, she felt a dizzying sensation, followed by a burning pain on her backside. Her pair of short legs involuntarily struggled like paddling oars.
"Slap—slap—slap—!"
----
Chunfeng Residence, inside the main hall.
Professor Ma and Liu Banxian were having a pleasant conversation. It turned out that these two well-informed elders were quite compatible in conversation after setting aside the topics of Ju Meng and fortune-telling. ƒrēewebnovel.com
"The three of us entered that underground palace together. The surrounding space we saw was vast, and although the carved beams and painted pillars had peeled off, the magnificent appearance of yesteryear was still visible..."
Professor Ma was slowly recounting what he had seen and heard when he infiltrated ancient tombs in his youth, while sipping tea. Just then, a muffled sound of "bang!" suddenly came from overhead, and dust sprinkled down from the wooden beam.
Immediately after, he heard a heart-wrenching scream.
"Ow—! Help, Lu Yibei is killing someone!"
After being stunned for a second or two, Professor Ma came back to his senses. He suddenly stood up and shouted upstairs, "Lu Yibei, what are you doing?"
"It's nothing, Professor, I'm hitting a child! If a child is disobedient, it's usually because they're spoiled. A beating will fix it! You guys continue." Lu Yibei replied.
"Right, right!" Liu Banxian echoed, nodding. "It's just hitting a child. A child won't become useful without being disciplined. Elder brother, you continue telling your story. You just said you entered the underground palace, what happened next?"
Is that really your granddaughter? Professor Ma frowned as he looked at the smiling Liu Banxian, and said seriously, "Elder brother, she's hitting your child."
"It's fine, it doesn't... Holy crap!" Liu Banxian's face suddenly changed mid-sentence, and she scrambled upstairs in a hurry.
