Quickly go away, if not, I"ll absorb your Yang Energy
"Why am I so confused?" Song Dao, who was looking at the balcony, shook his head as he laughed. He was getting really distracted, obviously he had only seen a silhouette and yet his heart felt anxious and in distress. It made him insistent but also hesitant, not daring to move forward. When did he become so indecisive?
Lifting his feet up, he walked towards the entrance of that floor. The original distance of above twenty metres, was covered by him in two to three steps. As for Shao Qian who was on that floor, he was immersed within the dense Yin Energy, to the extent where he wasn"t aware that the person he was avoiding, had already arrived at his door.
Shao Qian absorbed the last of the Yin Energy into his body, using his soul energy to refine the Yin Energy, before circulating it throughout his body. After doing so, he felt as if the room"s restraint had been broken, and he would be able to leave this small room at any time he wished.
Thinking of it, Shao Qian couldn"t help but smile. These few days, it really wasn"t easy for him to be restraint. Every day, when he tried to jump out of the window, he would always be blocked by a wall of wind. The moment when he was able to see the outside, and yet couldn"t go outside really made it difficult for him to bear.
Just as Shao Qian was planning where he would go after he left, the room door suddenly opened, and he watched as a man holding a compa.s.s walk in.
When Shao Qian saw the man, he was dumbfounded, what was this situation? Where did this person come from? But, he remembered he had concealed his soul power. Furthermore…… Why does he feel that this man was a bit familiar? And then, when Shao Qian thought of a certain possibility, he was horrified, he couldn"t be thinking of that man, right?
As for Song Dao, when he saw the youth sitting on the windowsill, he was also dazed on the spot. In the instant when he saw this youth, every cell in his whole body called that it was him, catch him, imprison him, take possession of him.
But, just as these ideas flashed through his mind, he immediately suppressed them. When he looks at the youth sitting by the window, his heart would ache, he would feel as if he owed him something, even more, he would feel that he cared about this person the most, and he only wanted to protect this person. This feeling was too intense, and he couldn"t help but move closer to the youth, ignoring the compa.s.s that he dropped onto the floor.
"Stop." Shao Qian stood by the window as he spoke in a stern voice, "If you still come over, then I won"t be polite."
Hearing these words, Song Dao recovered, he looked at the prominent outline of the floating silhouette, his eyes narrowing slightly, "Why are you dead?"
Who was it, who was it that took his life before he came? If he ever found out, he would definitely make that person regret ever being born.
"None of your business. Quickly leave, if not I will…… I will absorb your Yang Energy." Shao Qian"s experience in the first two worlds made him have some contradictory feelings towards the male lead.
"Suck my Yang Energy?" [1] Song Dao heart jumped for joy, they had just met, yet he wanted to suck his Yang Energy, could it be they had the same thoughts? If…… If a little of his Yang Energy was taken in by him, then it was of no matter.
"That"s right." Shao Qian gripped the porcelain doll in his hand tightly, for fear that this person wasn"t like others, and would immediately attack.
"Why don"t you come back with me and I"ll supply you with Yang Energy?" Song Dao grinned, "Since I practice Taoism, I can implement a law to let you leave here."
"……Don"t need." Thank you. Shao Qian was speechless, he was beginning to wonder whether this person was Song Dao or not, but if he was really was Song Dao, when did he become so foolish? Didn"t the original work say that Song Dao is a Taoist genius, and other than the female lead, was cold and indifferent to anyone else, be it human or ghost.
"Then…… Then I can send you somewhere else?" Song Dao very rarely made contact with other people, so towards winning favour with someone, this skill, he was very unfamiliar with it. Only his heart understood, he must definitely stay with this person, if not, he would most certainly regret it in the future.
"We aren"t familiar with each other. Furthermore, I"m a ghost." So, without any necessity, let"s not stick together, besides, we are hostile towards each other.
When Song Dao heard Shao Qian say that they weren"t familiar, he felt some grievances, he kept feeling that they were supposed to be the most closest person to the other, but why was this youth always rejecting him? But, it"s fine, even if right now his Porcelain Doll doesn"t like him, so long as they get along with each other for a long time, then they will naturally develop feelings for each other.
"Then, in your arms, are those your ashes? Who made it? It is really beautiful." Song Dao didn"t press on the topic of familiarity. He pointed at the porcelain doll in Shao Qian"s death grip and changed his question. The Yin Energy on the doll"s body and the youth"s body was from the same source, so it wasn"t hard to piece together that the doll had some relationship with the youth. Only, who was it that helped the youth make the doll? Thinking of the youth"s ashes being touched by others made acid surge from his heart. If he worked on it, it would definitely look more cuter.
"What do you want?" Shao Qian held the porcelain doll tightly, his face wary as he watched Song Dao, "Don"t even think about s.n.a.t.c.hing away my porcelain doll." In accordance to the endless streams of Taoism techniques, if this porcelain doll fell into that person"s hand, would he still have his freedom?
"Don"t misunderstand." When Song Dao heard these words, he became anxious, "I really don"t have any other intentions, I just really feel that it is very beautiful."
Shao Qian, seeing Song Dao"s bright red, anxious face, was at a loss. He felt that he should speed up recovering the system"s data, and after that, sweep the system and check what was going on with the people who was inconsistent with the plot.
When Song Dao saw the sinister energy around the youth"s body disperse completely, he threw a "Restraining Ghost" Talisman, that he had held in his right hand behind his back this whole time, towards Shao Qian.
Shao Qian, who had been paying close attention to Song Dao all this time, saw his action and tried to dodge. Who would have known that at that crucial moment, he was completely unable to move, furthermore, he was unable to mobilize his soul power, just like the time when the soul power had touched Zhang ZiXuan. So, he could only stare with widened eyes as he watched that piece of paper talisman hit himself, as well as the darkness that seemed like he had been kept inside something.
Successfully carrying out his surprise attack, Song Dao hurriedly threw himself forward to catch the falling porcelain doll. He felt some guilt as he rubbed the porcelain doll, laughing dryly, "You, You don"t be angry. I just want to take you out."
When Song Dao had thrown himself over, Shao Qian had wanted to move away, but other than his free-falling state, he found that he couldn"t move at all. At this moment, he realised that he had been trapped inside the porcelain doll. And even in the split second of his fall, he wondered whether this doll would break into pieces? After that, he was once again somewhat glad, fortunately, his soul wasn"t counted as a real body, so, if the porcelain doll broke, it wouldn"t do that much harm to him.
Fortunately, Song Dao also didn"t let him fall onto the ground, even rubbing the porcelain doll uncouthly once he had caught it.
"What on earth do you want?" Shao Qian simply felt that he was a living-tragedy, he hadn"t even done anything yet but he had already been caught again. His luck was really too good, to be able to definitely encounter this situation.
"Don"t worry, I"m not a bad guy." Song Dao thinking that the youth was afraid of him, used a hand to carefully and cautiously pat the porcelain doll. As he started go walk out, he also didn’t forget the pick up the compa.s.s that had laid forgotten on the floor, "I really just want to bring you out of this place. Where I live is really beautiful, furthermore, it"s more bigger than here, you will definitely like it."
"……" I don"t have the slightest desire to see what kind of place you stay in. I always feel that, whenever I run into you, nothing good will happen.
When Song Dao didn"t hear the youth talk for quite a while, he a.s.sumed that the youth was giving tacit approval to his idea, and his sluggish heart immediately felt more at ease, wasn"t this a huge improvement?
After rounding seven to eight corners, he walked out of the small estate. Walking across the nearby park, he felt a demonic energy headed towards them. Unconsciously shielding the porcelain doll in his arms, he retreated backwards in a flash, a hand holding up the Eight Trigrams [2] mirror as he faced it towards the demonic energy.
Shao Qian, who had been placed in Song Dao"s embrace, had his sight obstructed, however, he was still able to sense that the demonic energy seemed familiar. But, it was only when he heard that ear-piercing scream, did he abruptly remember, this…… wasn"t this the female lead that had been punched by him the moment he woke up? How could she actually be so stupid, to directly launch a sneak attack on Song Dao?
In fact, he couldn"t blame the female lead. She also knew the principle of seeking luck and avoiding calamity. On normal days, when she b.u.mped into a person that exuded the Taoism School"s Gang Energy, she would hide. Of course, if it it was the kind of person whose energy was better than a average person, but wasn"t at all beyond the level of impressive, she wouldn"t mind eating her fill. In other words, this was a female lead who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
But today, no one could really couldn"t blame her rash actions, Song Dao, this fraud, because he was scared his Gang Energy would hurt the porcelain doll in his arms, he had retracted it, furthermore, even placing the compa.s.s that he often holds in his hands into his bag. Like this, he seemed like a regular youth, wearing a T-shirt along with jeans and carrying a backpack. In his arms, he also carried a porcelain doll that Yin Energy exuded from, so at a glance, one would a.s.sume that he had been confused by a ghost!
So, the hundred-year old ghost that had a pair of discerning eyes lunged at them. What? The reason why she was attacking Song Dao? For two to three days, she had kept an eye on this place, searching for a chance to exact her revenge on the one that punched her, and after that, devour that little ghost that had absorbed so much Yin Energy.
Who would"ve known that, she wasn"t even able to make her move, when that little ghost had been taken out by a youth. At that moment, the female lead became excited, it was simply as if he was delivering the food straight to her! So, she didn"t think twice before she immediately lunged at them.
In the end? The female ghost that had been punched and had just recovered, was injured even more badly, to the extent where most of her Yin Energy was scattered by the Eight Trigrams mirror. This kind of loss, even if she only absorbed the essence of the moonlight daily, it still couldn"t be confirmed that she would be able to recover in a year or so.
"Eh eh eh, what about that ghost?" Shao Qian who couldn"t see what was going on behind him could only sulk in Song Dao"s embrace as he spoke, "Catch her!"
