Chapter 79 - Ghost Eyes
Translator: Yuzu
Xiao Chen glanced at the frozen Li Qiaoyi, whose head was accompanied by the female ghost’s Yin energy. The Yin energy seemed to be wrapped around the other’s limbs as if swearing sovereignty.
Xiao Chen stood up straight, picked up the book on the table, and expressionlessly intended to leave the place.
Li Qiaoyi quickly recovered from the strange change of weather. Seeing that the mysterious boy intended to go, he immediately stood up and followed him. When he thought of the series of strange things that had happened to him recently, as well as Ma Yang Yu, who had gone crazy, he somehow had a feeling that the other party knew something. With an anxious look, he caught up with the other person’s steps and said, “Do you know something? Can you tell me”.
Xiao Chen stopped, turned back, and looked at Li Qiaoyi. The latter stumbled two steps before standing firm. Xiao Chen’s expression was unpredictable, “If you really want to know, she will tell you.”
“She” Li Qiaoyi suspiciously narrowed his eyes. He did not understand the other party’s meaning and faintly frowned, “Who is she?”
Xiao Chen smiled, and his phoenix eyes raised and looked past his body, without saying a word.
Li Qiaoyi pursed his lips, and his entire body stiffened in place. He could clearly see that the other side’s eyes slowly reflected a white silhouette that was not like a human being but was illusory!
The most important thing is that the white shadow is close to his back, quietly watching himself!
Holy sh*t!!!
Li Qiaoyi seemed as though his body was splashed with a pot of cold ice water. His hands and legs were shivering like he was in an ice cellar. Cold sweat came out from fear, and a scream almost broke out through his throat, but he held himself back.
His head stiffened, his hands were clenched into fists, and his heart thumped violently as if his heart could pop out in the next second.
He moved his head little by little, turning very slowly. His body was still trembling, carrying a bit of desperate courage in it.
The moment Li Qiaoyi turned around, a gust of wind blew, causing him to be slightly confused and made him blink hard. When he opened them again, he was so scared that he instantly covered his mouth.
The surroundings have not changed, the people have not changed, but there are more things that should not be there.
There were layers and layers of black mist floating in the air. Next to the bookshelves, on the seats, on the tables, and by the windows were all ghosts.
Why is he so sure that they are ghosts?
Because their feet are not stepping on the ground, and their faces are horrifyingly pale, like the color of a person’s dead body that has not yet decayed but has completely lost its muscular l.u.s.ter. There are those who are dragging their limbs, those who are holding their heads, those who are young, and those who are old…………
Li Qiaoyi’s face went completely white.
There are actually ghosts in this world!
A white figure stood lightly in front of him and locked eyes with him.
Although the girl’s face is also showing a sickly white, it still looks nearly normal. She had a white skirt, simple canvas shoes, and her hair draped over her sides. Her face was also very clean, and she looked as if she was only 13 or 14 years old, like the kind of innocent little sister in the neighborhood.
But………
Li Qiaoyi let out a deep breath.
She must be a ghost!
He recognized her as the one he had saved last time.
No, no, it was not the car that hit the ghost, it was him who rushed up and pushed the other side away!
Li Qiaoyi was a little embarra.s.sed. This embarra.s.sment even overshadowed his inner fear of the unknown in front of him. He turned around and wanted to continue to ask Xiao Chen what was going on, only to find that the man standing behind him had left at some point.
Lulu did not get too close to him. She stood at a distance of almost three meters from him. Even all the ghosts around her bypa.s.sed the two of them. They did not come close, as if they were deliberately keeping their distance like they were afraid of something.
Lulu looked at the boy in front of her and smiled. She pulled out the brightest smile of her life, revealing her teeth, with the corners of her mouth lifted. Her eyes narrowed with a glow as if she were just a normal little girl.
Li Qiaoyi looked at her smile. He wavered and was a little speechless for a moment.
But the next second, he felt a stinging pain in his eyes. He subconsciously covered his eyes. When he regained his composure and opened his eyes again, his surroundings were back to their original state.
There was no black fog, no ghosts, much less a little girl in a white dress as though everything he had just seen was just his illusion.
Li Qiaoyi eyes were sharp. He found a newspaper spread on the ground where the girl had been standing. After a pause, he walked forward for some reason and then reached out and picked up the newspaper.
When he read the contents of the newspaper, the veins on his temples were bulging up straight away.
The newspaper has yellowed, and the layout, typeface, and photos show that the paper is several years old.
The center of the newspaper was marked with an eye-catching headline: Fourteen-year-old girl jumped to her death after being forced/r-ped by her teacher, and spectators roared: “Why aren’t you jumping?”
Li Qiaoyi felt his eyes darken and his legs softening that he almost couldn’t stand still.
Below the headline was a photo of a girl standing on a rooftop before she jumped, taken by the crowd of onlookers.
Wearing a white dress………
Looking at the photo on the yellowing newspaper, the hand holding the paper could not help but tighten, so the newspaper was instantly clenched into a ball.
To simplify the whole article report, the rough content is that the young girl was often subjected to s.e.xual hara.s.sment by her teacher, surnamed Li. On the day of the incident, a student called Xiao Ma heard the girl’s cries for help because he was in detention. However, after police intervention, Xiao Ma denied the matter, resulting in the girl being at the forefront of the storm and without evidence to prove herself.
The whole trend of public opinion was basically condemning the young girl for not caring for herself. From the perspective of the victim’s guilt theory, the young girl was blamed for the incident and suffered from severe depression. Eventually, the young girl chose to jump off the building. In the process of jumping off the building, onlookers have been shouting words like, “Jump, Jump quickly”.
Li Qiaoyi read the whole article. It was difficult to read, making him feel uncomfortable and even want to vomit blood.
Surnamed Li………
Xiao Ma…….
Li Qiaoyi stared at the newspaper in a daze, remembering what had happened in school in the past few days. Suddenly a flash of light came over him, his heart jerked a little, and he stared straight up.
f.u.c.k, it can’t be what he thinks it is!
“I just saw the ghost domain!” The old man looked up to the sky. His face was very grave, and his voice was somewhat shaky.
The sky still looked clear and thoroughly blue, seemingly no different than usual.
“So what?” The one who answered was a young man who looked like he was in his early twenties. His expression revealed an air of superiority over others, and his voice sounded lazy. After hearing the old man’s words, he didn’t put much thought into it. He kept his legs crossed as he sat in his chair and concentrated on the game, not taking the old man’s words seriously.
The old man shook his head as he muttered to himself, “Strange! The ghost domain just appeared not long ago, then disappeared again, as if it was suppressed by some other force.”
The old man took a breath and shook his head, his expression was unsightly, and he questioned himself, “No, that can’t be right! How can that degree of ghost domain be so easily suppressed.”
It was not even that long ago that the ghost domain could be said to have just appeared. It was just a few minutes before it was immediately suppressed. It did not erupt or expand, and the speed and ruthlessness of the situation was just too frightening!
This is simply impossible.
The appearance of the ghost domain itself is a once-in-a-hundred-year occasion, so how can there be something in this world that can suppress the ghost domain.
“What about it? It could just be that it is not enough, and it has not been formed properly yet.” Lu Yi Ang continued to play the game but could not help but roll his eyes.
Why is there so much going on with the old man?
“Xiao Yi!!!” The old man took a look at his grandson, who was playing a game without much concern. He frowned and couldn’t help but shout out.
“What,” Lu Yi Ang’s game was at a critical time. When he heard the old man shouting at him, he became a bit annoyed, and in the next second, he was suddenly killed by the other side, so he couldn’t help but curse out, “F*ck.”
The old man sighed in disappointment, “You go call Xiao Ming over. I have something to discuss with him.”
Lu Yi Ang paused, and his expression turned a little ugly. He threw his phone furiously on the sofa and rolled his eyes to the sky.
This dead old man, how come he only remembers Lu Yi Ming, the illegitimate son who is not even on the stage. It is obvious that he himself is the eldest grandson in this family. Too d.a.m.n biased!
“Okay, I got it.”
Tsk, I must get rid of this b.a.s.t.a.r.d Lu Yi Ming one day.
Heh!

Xiao Chen was lying on Jing Hezhi’s back, half-squinting and looking groggy, trying to fall asleep.
Jing Hezhi’s long hair was on his back, sweat-stained and stuck to Xiao Chen’s chest. Xiao Chen’s head was buried into Jing Hezhi’s neck, rubbing his head in a slight arc and sniffing the man’s scent.
It was like a little puppy trying to determine if he is the master by sniffing. Cute.
Jing Hezhi gently turned over, shifted his position, and re-embraced Xiao Chen in his arms. Xiao Chen moved in discomfort before finding a comfortable position for himself and continued to lay limp in the man’s arms.
Jing Hezhi lowered his head and stared at Xiao Chen’s face. Xiao Chen’s soft body was attached to the man’s body, with no reservations and no defenses.
The man stared at the other’s tired face and dropped a kiss on his forehead.
The gray eyes shifted obscurely, seemingly harboring many emotions. There was tenderness, there was love, but more than that, there was a bit of paranoia.
This is his baby!
Jing Wo Zhi’s expression moved slightly as if his brain recalled something suddenly. He exhaled with a sinking feeling and then tightened his arms around Xiao Chen, with one arm around Xiao Chen’s waist and the other acting as his pillow.
Mine! Mine!
The tips of the man’s teeth rubbed against the other’s neck, moving up to the other’s jaw, then the chin……
Xiao Chen was tightly confined and couldn’t move easily in the man’s arms.
“Baby, I love you.” Jing Hezhi’s tone revealed a half-hearted hint of reticence.
Xiao Chen was half asleep. When he heard the man’s words in his daze, he subconsciously stretched out his hand and hooked it around the man’s neck. Then he kissed the man several times and replied, “I love you too, I’m too sleepy, don’t bother me. Let me sleep, husband!”
The tone was delicate and full of pampering.
Jing Hezhi did not say anything and did not bother the child as he slept. His eyes also carried a smile, but his gaze was still fixed on Xiao Chen’s side face as if he was admiring a beautiful work of art.
In the darkness, these gray eyes were staring for who knows how long.
To be precise, he was in such a position admiring his sleeping lover every night.
Finally, Xiao Chen has completely fallen asleep, and the man has resumed putting one mark after another on his lover’s body.
I’ve waited too long for you! For such a long time!
It was so hard waiting for you!
Never! Never leave me again!
If I can’t find you again, I’ll go crazy!
–
After the old man finished, he kept staring at Lu Yiming’s face as if he was waiting for a nice answer from the other.
To tell the truth, in his heart, he is more fond of the child Lu Yi Ang than Lu Yi Ming. The child is still his eldest grandson but is really not good, so he does not dare to put the big job into his hands.
Lu Yi Ming pondered for a moment. There was some hesitation and uncertainty before he finally slowly opened his mouth and said, “Could it be that the Ghost King has reappeared in the world?”
The old man’s eyes widened sharply, and his body almost failed to stand steadily, but fortunately, he did not fall with the support of the wall. The old man’s face was a little ugly, and his heart was horrified, but he could not think of a reason to refute it.
The sky changed dramatically, reversing the state of the universe. In this world, apart from the Ghost King, no one else has been heard of who can have this ability.
The old man’s face was ashen, “The ghost king has been silent for hundreds of years. What do you think is the reason for him to reappear in the world?”
Lu Yi Ming looks too calm and composed. His gaze followed the direction the old man was looking and stared into the distance.
His tone was evenly neutral and indifferent.
“In search of his lover who has been lost for thousands of years.”
The only pa.s.sion in my heart is to find you.
All I want for the rest of my life is to hold you in my arms, to bind you to my side, to fuse your flesh and blood with that of mine.
I absolutely! Absolutely! I cannot stand to lose another minute of you!
So, my dear.
Please don’t leave me again.
Otherwise, I’ll go insane and destroy this world!

yuzu: h.e.l.lo, um, I’ve been thinking about this lately. I’ve been really busy with school, other online cla.s.ses I’m taking, and some other stuff. Because of that, it is quite difficult for me to manage my time with all the work I’m doing, so I’ve decided to drop DTSB. Sorry.
I may come back to translating in CG someday, but for now, I’ll just say thank you to all the readers of DTSB.
