Free Web NovelAfter cutting off contact with the Paper Cicada Immortal in Lan Yue Cave, Lu Yibei rode her small motorcycle towards Happiness Community. The summer night breeze in Hua City blew against her face, humid and stuffy.
“This damn weather is getting hotter and hotter. Sooner or later, I'll switch to my Demoness form to cool you down.”
Lu Yibei grumbled, looking at the empty street with no one around. She pondered for a few seconds, then quickly dismissed that unrealistic idea.
She was a little worried that if she maintained the Witch Seed state for too long, it might cause snow in Hua City in June.
At that time, the Night Watch would definitely intervene to investigate.
After all, causing extreme climate change in a city was already considered a large-scale urban legend incident with relatively bad implications. Immediately after, she remembered what Zhang Huainan had just said, and a hint of annoyance arose in her heart.
“Tsk! I deserve at least one-third of the credit for the successful sealing of the Pink Fluffy Rabbit, but all the benefits were snatched by some shameless guy, who even secretly screwed me over.”
That feeling was like finally staying up late to finish homework, only to find that she had taken the wrong practice book and her deskmate had stolen the fruits of her labor.
“You bastard, don't let me catch you! If I do, you're going to have a bad time!” Lu Yibei cursed fiercely, then as if suddenly thinking of something, she narrowed her eyes, “However...”
According to Old man Zhang Huainan's guess, since others have a way to steal the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power, can't I also find a way to get some?
While thinking, Lu Yibei had a bold idea.
According to her observation, items affected by the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power, before developing sentience, actually go through a stage where their performance is enhanced. Most of the items in the hands of Secret Society members are in this stage.
If she could successfully steal some of the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power, couldn't she use it to enhance items? This seems promising! I need to ask Lin Nian to pay attention and find out who the bastard is who allegedly stole the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power.
If that doesn't work, she can only wait until Wang Yinglou wakes up and let her try to steal the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power.
Thinking of this, Lu Yibei had already envisioned herself using the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power to create an entire army of Paper Cicada Immortals.
As for why Paper Cicada Immortals?
They can handle tasks including but not limited to assassination, eavesdropping, secret infiltration, and suicide attacks. The materials needed for production are cheap things like yellow paper, bamboo strips, and cinnabar. Is there any Spiritual Energy item more cost-effective than this?
In fact, when she left the Paper Cicada Immortal used for communication in Lan Yue Cave, Lu Yibei already had a rough idea of specializing Paper Cicada Immortals based on their different uses.
If she could find a way to steal some of the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power to enhance the Paper Cicada Immortals and solve the problem of their fragile bodies limited by materials, it might really work!
Thinking of this, Lu Yibei felt more and more that among the things Qingji taught her, the Paper Cicada Immortal could be considered the most useful besides the Taihe Gentleman Sword Illustration.
Of course, if Qingji knew that the Paper Cicada Immortal, originally a consumable Spiritual Energy item, was being 'raised' by her, he would surely scold her for not focusing on proper matters and give her a good lecture.
Lu Yibei rode and thought all the way, and before she knew it, she had entered the Happiness Community area.
From a distance, she saw Miao Xiaoqi's “Cat Castle”, the director and sole member of the Void Station Disaster Rogue's Den Office.
As a urban legend formed by the accumulated resentment of stray cats who died from abuse, Miao Xiaoqi had memory fragments from over a hundred stray cats. She could be said to be quite skilled at being likable as a cat.
After all, most stray cats who suffer abuse are actually very likable cats, and it is precisely because they are close to and trust humans that they are betrayed by those psychologically twisted cat abusers and suffer terrible fates.
If a cat doesn't like interacting with people and disdains being likable, it's quite difficult for humans to catch it.
In contrast to those cat-abusing perverts, the residents of Happiness Community are very “harmonious and friendly”. Not only do they not abuse cats, but they also treat the stray animals in the community kindly.
Therefore, Lu Yibei hadn't been to Happiness Community for a while, and the residents of Happiness Community had actually built a simple wooden cat castle for Miao Xiaoqi.
Small houses, cat beds, cat trees, automatic water dispensers, etc., everything was available.
Looking at Miao Xiaoqi sleeping soundly on the rooftop terrace of the cat castle, Lu Yibei was speechless for a moment. “
Is this guy not planning to leave? Did I just invite a cat into the house?
Damn it, if it stays here any longer, I'm going to charge Void rent!
Lu Yibei thought indignantly, but she didn't disturb Miao Xiaoqi's sweet dream. Instead, she rode her small motorcycle, quickly passed through half of Happiness Community, and entered the underground parking lot—

At 10:59 PM, in Room 4509 of Dormitory Building 4, Huacheng Institute of Technology Female Dormitory. This was Hua Xieyu's residence at Huacheng Institute of Technology.
The dormitory, which was originally a double room, was turned into a single room through the Eclipse Society's manipulation, causing the other resident to temporarily not live at the school due to “personal reasons”.
At this moment, Hua Xieyu sat at her desk in the dormitory, staring intently at the chat window of a certain social software on her computer screen. Her eyes were filled with anticipation, and her expression was a little anxious.
That feeling was like a little bride waiting for the groom to enter the bridal chamber. One minute later, it was eleven
o'clock exactly.
In the chat window, messages began to scroll rapidly.
Contact Person 1: “【Video】”
Contact Person 1: “【Picture】【Picture】【Picture】”
Contact Person 1: “【Video】”.
...
Contact Person 1: “【Video】”
Three minutes later, all messages were sent, and the chat window showed that the friend with the ID “Contact Person 1” had gone offline. Only then did Hua Xieyu take a deep breath and begin to browse the messages she had received.
Her hands trembled slightly, and she was careful, as if she wasn't browsing videos and pictures made of data, but the most precious treasures in the world.
She clicked on the first video, and A-Tian's figure quickly appeared on the screen.
A-Tian seemed to have arrived at the school the Eclipse Society arranged for her. From the video, the school's scale and the luxury of its facilities were unlike anything Hua Xieyu had ever seen.
“Sister Hua, I've arrived. The food and accommodation here are great, so don't worry! I'll work hard! Also, there were over twenty meat dishes to choose from for dinner today, I was really shocked, hehe!”
Hua Xieyu watched the video, her fair fingertips reluctantly caressing the screen, as if wanting to touch A-Tian's little face. Then she watched A-Tian's video repeatedly several times before clicking on the next video.
“It's me, I've arrived. Hmph! Being a trainee isn't that great, it's only ten hours of training a day, and those sissies actually dare to complain? They'll definitely be eliminated by me!”
“Sister Hua, the chef Uncle here is amazing, I never thought there were so many ways to cook.” “Sister Hua, I visited the Greenwich Observatory today...”

“Sister Hua, I miss you a little.”
“Sister Hua”
The person with the ID “Contact Person 1” sent Hua Xieyu a total of thirteen videos, corresponding to the thirteen children in the small building in Xiang Niangzi Cave.
Just as that man promised, in just over a day, he had arranged places for them based on their different talents.
Hua Xieyu watched each video repeatedly several times. During this time, her eyes kept getting dust in them, and half a pack of tissues on the table disappeared without her noticing.
~Damn it, does no one clean this ghost place?”
When Hua Xieyu finished watching the last video for the seventh time, she finally reluctantly closed her computer, got up, walked to the bed, collapsed onto it, and stared blankly at the ceiling.
She had seen with her own eyes that the children were all well-settled. What they had now and would have in the future was something she had never dared to dream of before.
But she knew that all of this came at a price.
Although that dead socialite said that even if I ultimately fail the mission, he won't take back everything he has already given to the children, who knows if he's telling the truth?
If he goes back on his word then...
Thinking of this, Hua Xieyu's expression became even more solemn.
She couldn't imagine what kind of harm it would cause to their immature minds if she failed the mission and the children had to return to a terrible place like Xiang Niangzi Cave.
If the children had stayed in Xiang Niangzi Cave all along, they might have been able to endure hardship, but now they had seen the outside world...
...”
No, I must succeed in this deal, no matter what it costs! Hua Xieyu thought fiercely.
She knew that the man had Contact Person 1 send her these videos and pictures with less than pure intentions, likely to threaten, motivate, or deceive her, but she was willing to fall for it—

On the other side, Jingyi Apartment Complex, Lu Yibei's home.
Ju Meng ultimately couldn't overcome her psychological and physiological discomfort and stay in the same room as Wang Yinglou.
After standing in the apartment's living room and facing off against Wang Yingying for about ten minutes, she transformed into a sleek-feathered Magpie, flapped her wings, and flew directly upstairs.
Upstairs, she immediately cast a Spell to separate the first and second floors of the apartment, then opened her computer and started playing games.
However, perhaps because she kept thinking about Wang Yingying downstairs and worrying about her sneaking upstairs for a sudden attack, Ju Meng was always distracted while playing games, her gaze uncontrollably drifting towards the staircase.
If someone was struggling to choose between games and their boyfriend/girlfriend and came to her, the God of Marriage, to pray for guidance, she would definitely tell them not to be distracted and choose games!
However, when similar situations happened to her, she couldn't be so decisive. Being distracted while playing games is a big no-no.
So, in less than an hour after starting the game, she died 41 times in one match, and at the end of the game, she even received a “friendly reminder” from the system, banning her account for 24 hours.
Ju Meng stared at the system notification with a dark face for three minutes, then stood up, unable to bear it any longer, and walked towards the staircase. She had finally made up her mind to do something to eliminate Wang Yingying, this huge potential problem affecting her gaming. However, when she reached the staircase and saw the scene in the living room, she froze in place.
She saw that the Little Freaks who lived in Lu Yibei's house had returned at some point and were wantonly “tormenting” Wang Yinglou.
“How did this lump of meat get downstairs?” Maotuan (Hairball) asked, “Did one of you push it down?”
Eyeball jumped onto Wang Yingying's body, bouncing up and down like it was stepping on a soft bed, “Who would move it for no reason? It's dead heavy!” “Hehe, did you come down yourself? If you don't speak, I'll assume you admitted it!”
“You bastard, do you know whose territory this is? It's your Eyeball Grandpa's territory. If you keep acting up like this, Eyeball Grandpa will swallow you, do you understand?”
“Brother Eyeball...” False Tooth hesitated several times °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° before reminding, “Although the Devil Woman doesn't come home often, I advise you to be a little...”
“Shut up!” Eyeball interrupted, “Don't mention that woman who doesn't come home to me! She has no place in this house anymore!”
As it spoke, it stepped on Wang Yingying several more times, almost flattening her into a meat patty.
False Tooth. ”
Maotuan (Hairball), “...”
We'll just quietly watch you court death, we won't say anything!
Staring at the group of Little Freaks messing with Wang Yingying, Ju Meng's heart tightened slightly at first.
In her opinion, the actions of those Little Freaks were simply dancing on the edge of death. To the Invasion Beast, those Little Freaks could at most be considered pre-dinner snacks.
Being ridden on the face by pre-dinner snacks, can this be tolerated?
However, just when she had almost mentally pronounced that those Little Freaks would suffer a terrible death at Wang Yingying's hands, she suddenly noticed that Wang Yingying had no intention of attacking those Little Freaks at all.
That ghost thing doesn't seem as scary as she imagined!
Perhaps, it really is like Lu Yibei said, completely harmless now?
Muttering to herself, Ju Meng secretly observed for a while longer. After confirming that Wang Yingying had no intention of attacking the Little Freaks, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Now I can play games with peace of mind!
There's no reason for those little guys not to be afraid, while I, the majestic Lord of the Eight Hundred Li Peach Garden, the only legitimate God of Marriage in Z country, would be afraid of that ghost thing, right?
This time, I will not die once and become a god!
Ju Meng thought angrily, swung her pink fist fiercely in the air, turned back to her computer, logged into a smurf account, and happily started another game.
This time, she died 47 times in one game, and her smurf account successfully became useless.
After discovering that Wang Yinglou was basically harmless, she actually found it even harder to play games peacefully. Her already distorted operations became even more twisted. frёewebηovel.cѳm
She wanted to play with Wang Yinglou.
That psychological state was like a young girl who was afraid of kittens and puppies, who, after finally overcoming her fear, becomes obsessed with teasing and playing with cats and dogs, unable to stop.
