Chapter 31: Page 31

Doesn't it mean that you have no fighting ability at all?

Is it going to be fine so soon?

what's the situation?

Ye Xing looked at Ba Chi, who was curled up in the corner without any movement and looked submissive, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, seeing how weak and painful I was just now, you didn't take advantage of the situation to attack me. It seems that you are really convinced. So the information you just provided can be temporarily regarded as true."

Yotsuya Kenko was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

So Ye Xing's painful look just now was just an act?

The purpose is to perform for Hachisha.

If Yasha took advantage of the situation to launch an attack, it would prove that the information she had just provided under torture was very likely false.

Even the evil spirits are calculating.

Sure enough, Yexing is a mature exorcist.

I think so.

But Yotsuya Miko always felt an inexplicable anger in his heart. He couldn't help but clench his right fist and swung it hard, but it landed lightly on Ye Xing's shoulder.

"Couldn't you have informed me in advance? I was worried for nothing."

"Look what you said."

Ye Xing still looked lazy and said nonchalantly.

"In fact, summoning the ghost hand twice and maintaining it for such a long time did take a lot of energy from me."

After hearing this, Yotsuya Miko remembered that he had a question to ask and asked curiously.

"By the way, how many times can you summon that pale ghost hand of yours?"

"Well... I haven't tried it much, but if I were to estimate, it would be around twenty times."

"Twenty times!?"

Yotsuya was shocked when he saw him.

"You said a huge consumption, so it's one tenth?"

"of course."

Ye Xing looked serious and nodded.

"Haven't you heard a word?"

"What?"

"For a mature RPG player, 99% HP is considered low health, and below 95% HP is considered very low health."

040 A World Dominated by Evil Spirits

After all this banter, Yuigahama Yui and Yotsuya Miko felt a lot more relaxed.

Ye Xing shared with the two the information about this world that he had extracted from Yasha.

During the story, Sabre squatted on the ground obediently, wagging his tail enthusiastically at Yexing.

Basha was curled up in the corner with fear in his eyes, like a wounded lamb. People looking at him might even feel a little pity for him.

Just as Ye Xing guessed.

This is the "gate" in Kyoto City, connecting to the other side of the world.

Even Hachishaku didn't know exactly how long this world had existed.

But one thing is certain.

The underworld, hell, the netherworld, and the underworld in legends, all these words related to the afterlife, actually refer to this world.

This place is equivalent to a one-to-one replica of Kyoto City. The difference is that the people living in this city are not humans, but evil spirits and ghosts.

"But..."

Hearing this, Yotsuya Miko frowned.

"When we came into contact with the 'gate' before, we never encountered such a thing as traveling to another world. Moreover, this time, there was no 'gate' near Yui and I. How did we come to Kyoto City on the other side?"

Yexing shook his head and pointed at Basha who was curled up in the corner.

"In fact, you, Yui, and Sabre have already come into contact with the 'Gate', but you just don't know it."

Yotsuya Kenko was stunned when he heard this, then looked at Yasha in the corner, an expression of disbelief appeared in his eyes, and he murmured.

"You, you mean... there is a 'door' in her body!?"

"Yes, that's what I mean. The reason why the three of us came to this world this time is actually the result of coincidence because Hachishaku was unable to control the power of the 'door'."

Yexing nodded.

"According to common sense, an evil spirit of Yashaku's level is only comparable to your Hundred Eyes. She was able to kill your Hundred Eyes instantly because of the power brought by the 'Gate' in her body."

"I see."

Upon hearing this, Yotsuya Miko was visibly relieved.

She originally thought that her awakened Hundred Eyes was too useless, which was why she couldn't defeat Hachishaku.

Don't underestimate Hachisha-sama's fame.

But that's mainly because, for some reasons that are not convenient to talk about, new works continue to be released.

Actually.

Monsters like Hachishaku can only deceive children by disguising their voices, and are still far from being truly powerful monsters.

It turns out that it is not the waste that is the embodiment of my soul.

But the enemy has mutated.

Thinking of this, Yotsuya Miko felt much more relaxed.

"Wait a moment."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Yuigahama Yui, who looked up with a confused look on her face, suddenly spoke.

"If that's the case, why was Yexing-san dragged into this?"

Without waiting for Yohoshi to explain, Yuigahama Yui muttered to herself.

"Hmm... And how did you know that Jianzi summoned Baime? Didn't you come later?"

"Could it be that..."

Yuigahama Yui looked at the night stars innocently, and suddenly realized.

"I understand. You must be worried about Jianzi's safety, so you have been waiting nearby for a long time. You just hid and didn't come out just to let her awaken her ability smoothly, right?"

"It's just a coincidence."

Ye Xing still maintained a calm expression.

"I just took a request by the way. Yuigahama-san, did you know that the grandmother of a little girl in the apartment building where you live just passed away recently?"

"Really? I haven't heard of it."

"That's right. After all, it's an apartment building, not a compound. It's normal that the neighbors are not familiar with each other."

Ye Xing responded without comment, then continued.

"After the little girl's grandmother passed away, she said she often heard her grandmother's voice in the middle of the night, constantly calling her name, and she also had symptoms similar to sleepwalking. Fortunately, her parents had the habit of locking the security door before going to bed, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

"Anyway, after going to the hospital to check without any results, the little girl's parents found Lao Deng, who then found me. Combined with the information you provided, I was able to confirm that there are evil spirits in this area, and they are not ordinary evil spirits."

"It's just a coincidence."

Yuigahama Yui covered her mouth and chuckled twice, then leaned close to Yotsuya Miko's ear and whispered teasingly.

"Jizi, although Yexing-san said that, he still cares about you."

"Cough cough."

Yotsuya Miko's face also turned a little red, and she coughed twice to ease the embarrassment.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Then, without waiting for Yuigahama Yui to speak, Yotsuya Miko asked half sincerely, half trying to change the subject.

"Now, how do we get out of here?"

"It's very simple."

Nightstar shrugged.

"In addition to relying on luck and betting on probability like before, there is another way to travel through the world stably, which is to wait here until five o'clock in the morning."

Yuigahama Yui was puzzled when she heard this: "Why is it five o'clock?"

"Have you heard of the Ode to Demonic Time?"

"What is the devil?"

"When the devil comes."

"When?"

Yexing rolled his eyes.

"Don't mess around here."

Yotsuya Miko had studied many ancient books on strange stories, so she had naturally heard of the term "Omomaji" and couldn't help but wonder.

"I remember the Demonic Time, isn't it the time of dusk?"

"Yes."

Ye Xing nodded slightly and explained.

"However, that is the time when evil spirits can appear in the real world, and the time when ordinary humans like Yuigahama can pass through the 'gate' and return to the real world is the opposite of dusk, around 5 to 7 in the morning. I call it the time of meeting people."

"As for psychics like you and me, we can freely travel between the two worlds through the 'gate', regardless of whether we are encountering demons or humans."

Yotsuya Miko pursed her lips and said thoughtfully.

"In other words, as long as we find the location of the 'gate' in this world, we can pass through the 'gate' and return to Kyoto City in the real world? This seems..."

Having said that, Yotsuya Miko looked at Yuigahama Yui worriedly.

According to the information provided by Hachisha, although this place is the same as Kyoto City, it is a real ghost town filled with a large number of evil spirits.

Her current condition is not very good, and there is definitely no way for her to summon Baimu again in a short period of time.

What's more, there is an ordinary person like Yuigahama Yui.

Yotsuya Miko believed that with Yohoshi's ability, if he acted alone, he would definitely be able to safely reach the location of the "gate".

But with two burdens, that's not very realistic.

Ye Xing seemed to see what Yotsuya Miko was thinking and chuckled as he spoke.

"Don't worry. I kept Hachishaku here just to prepare for this moment."

"When the time comes, she will be able to send us back to the real world directly. After all, she has the power of the 'gate' in her body."

After hearing this, Yotsuya Miko finally felt relieved.

So that's how it is. No wonder Ye Xing, who is always cruel and ruthless to evil spirits, actually spared Ba Chi's life.

In other words, Bashiku was to be used as a teleportation point for the return trip.

041 I think Yuigahama Yui is also a good man

Thinking of this, Yotsuya Miko suddenly remembered something.

She forced herself to sit up straight, put her palms together, and her face turned red, as if she had used all her strength.

"come out!"

This sudden action left Yuigahama Yui and Yohoshi dumbfounded.
