Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Verdict on Sins, Seeking the Malevolent Ghost

Li Xin was so mortified he didn’t dare to look up at his roommates. Before that lunatic confessed, he had looked quite normal. His reason for refusal was simple: he didn’t like ugly people, and the latter had perfectly hit that bottom line.

After being rejected, the other party resorted to many tricks, various framings and rumors, which left him overwhelmed for a period. Fortunately, he always acted with a clear conscience and had good relationships at school,

so those groundless rumors didn’t cause him any severe impact. They usually blew over with more noise than actual harm, and after several consecutive failures, the other party quieted down.

Because there had been no more movements for several months, Li Xin originally thought he had come to his senses. He had relaxed his guard against him, so when he saw the bone domino, he didn’t immediately suspect the latter was behind it.

“Alright, alright, Old Third, don’t look so defeated.”

“This isn’t your fault. You can only blame your overwhelming charm and bad luck for encountering someone so abnormal.”

The roommates spoke up one after another to comfort him. Their words were, of course, sincere. However, the corners of their mouths, almost splitting to their ears, clearly showed that besides sympathy, other emotions were mixed in. Li Xin knew his roommates’ personalities well; he had indeed fallen into a trap this time and would likely be laughed at for life.

“Alright, I’ve asked all I needed to ask.”

“This evidence is enough for Uncle Police to convict him. He will pay the price for the evil deeds he has committed.”

Yaoyao didn’t pay attention to the strange emotions of the group. After asking the most crucial questions, she stopped looking at Shi Yue. It wasn’t that she judged by appearance;

it was simply that this “Big Brother” had a treacherous look on his face, and seeing him too much was an eyesore. Furthermore, her seven older brothers were all very handsome. Having grown accustomed to beautiful faces, her standards naturally became unconsciously higher.

Just then, Yaoyao heard a commotion from behind her. She was slightly startled and turned to look, seeing that the few people in the dormitory had expressions of wanting to speak but hesitating.

“Damn it, you cowards, what’s there not to ask? If you don’t ask, then I will.” Seeing his companions failing to step up, the instant noodle-haired guy cursed in frustration, then rubbed his hands together and explained.

“Master, it’s like this, the Truth Serum Talisman is still on him. Could you perhaps let us ask a few questions too?”

The instant noodle-haired guy looked a bit apprehensive. He knew his request was indeed overstepping. But this was only because the talisman was so extraordinary, and they rarely had the chance to encounter such wonders,

making them curious. Moreover, the person in front of them was Shi Yue, a lunatic destined for the death penalty. Using him as a test subject, they didn’t need to bear any burden. With all this in mind, he couldn’t stop his excited heart.

Yaoyao was surprised by his words. She had thought there might be some difficult request, but it was this simple. She nodded without a second thought, “Yes, you can!” It was fortunate that she hadn’t undone the immobilization spell, so she wasn’t worried about this person doing anything uncontrollable. After saying this, she stepped aside, indicating that they were free to ask.

“Thank you, thank you, Master!” The latter was ecstatic upon seeing this. He had almost given up when the Master was silent for a moment, and he never expected such a turn of events. For a moment, he was so excited his lips were trembling. Then, he turned to look at Shi Yue, whose body was immobilized, his eyes filled with unspeakable excitement.

To be precise, everyone in the room except Li Xin was equally excited. They circled around the person, arguing vociferously about who would ask the first truth.

“Master, has this matter not been fully resolved yet?”

“How will you deal with that malevolent ghost?”

Li Xin walked over to Yaoyao’s side at this moment. He glanced at the Master, who was deep in thought, then paused before asking. He knew very well that although he had captured the mastermind behind the harm,

the real trouble wasn’t over. The malevolent ghost that had harmed him still hadn’t appeared. If it wasn’t dealt with thoroughly, he would still have to live in apprehension, and that state was not easy to bear.

Upon hearing this, Yaoyao couldn’t help but look up at him. And in that moment, she also understood his concerns.

“Big Brother, don’t worry. Although it was tricked, since it harmed people, I won’t allow it to remain in the mortal realm.” This wasn’t her being heartless; living people had their laws, and so did the deceased. Otherwise, if both sides disregarded rules and caused chaos, the Yin and Yang realms would have long ago turned into a mess.

“Then I’ll trouble Master with this.” Li Xin truly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the Master would take care of the other party. Following that, he was somewhat curious about how the Master would find that malevolent ghost. After all, he had already come looking for it, yet it hadn’t appeared, which seemed a bit inexplicable.

As if sensing his confusion, the next moment, they saw the Master flick a yellow talisman into the air. It spontaneously ignited without fire, and instead of disappearing, the talisman’s flame gathered and transformed into a fluttering butterfly. It landed unimpeded on the Master’s shoulder, flapping its wings like a living creature. This scene was like special effects, leaving Li Xin dazzled and mesmerized.

Yaoyao used her small hand to gently stroke the butterfly’s wings, saying in a childlike voice, “Big Brother, you all just wait here for Uncle Police to arrive. Yaoyao will handle that malevolent ghost.”

Before, the entire school’s magnetic field had been disturbed by Yin energy, making it impossible for her to locate its hiding place immediately. But after obtaining the bone domino, that problem was gone, because there was an unbreakable karmic link between the two. And to her eyes, it was like a firefly in the night, impossible to hide. As for calling the police, she was already skilled at it; it had been done in just a few short seconds.

“Goodbye!” Yaoyao gave them a sweet smile.

The butterfly, perched on her shoulder, seemed to sense its master’s thoughts. After her words fell, it fluttered its wings and flew gracefully outwards.

Yaoyao took a step and followed it.

The girl and the butterfly, though seemingly moving slowly, completely vanished from the room in the blink of an eye.

Li Xin was stunned. He chased after them to look, but found no one in the corridor either. He instinctively gasped at the Master’s ability to appear and disappear without a trace.

At the same time, in the teaching building near the back mountain, on the second basement level.

Yaoyao appeared as if out of thin air. As soon as she stepped into the place, she instinctively frowned. Being a second basement level, this area was not ventilated, and with years of no human presence, an inescapable musty smell lingered. The dust accumulated on the ground almost left Yaoyao nowhere to step. She stood under an emergency light; the faint light barely illuminated two steps in front of her.

“Come out, I know you’re here.”

Yaoyao’s dark, glistening eyes now looked at a black shadow shrouded in darkness. Her voice was clear and strong, echoing in the confined space, lingering for a long time. However, the surroundings were completely silent, with no response.

Yaoyao saw this and her delicate eyebrows furrowed. She clenched her small, chubby hands, and immediately a series of crackling sounds of bones resounded. Her voice also deepened.

“Since Big Brother isn’t showing respect, then don’t blame Yaoyao for using strong measures.”

She lifted her small hand, and the Soul-Hooking Chains shot out like a released arrow, instantly plunging into the shadow.

The next moment, a mass of Yin energy, cold enough to condense frost, suddenly erupted in the room. It aggressively surged towards Yaoyao, but unfortunately, before it could even get close, it was scattered by a whip of the long chain. Following that, a piercing scream resounded throughout the narrow basement.
