“Since you've promised me, I hope that you will not renege when I ask you in the future.” The evil ghost looked at Bai Mianmian with a hint of a smile before disappearing right before her eyes.

At this time, Bai Mianmian discovered that she was covered in a cold sweat. Her body shook, more from excitement than from fear.

After being granted a long awaited desire, who would be able to control their elation?

“Oh, wonderful, at last…” Bai Mianmian smiled softly. The originally demure voice, because of her heightened emotions, had a strange quiver. After such an intense interaction, not only did her voice tremble, it sounded dull and very ugly.

“Why are you so loud? Even if you don't want to sleep, we still want to sleep. If you want to shout again, please go outside.” Bai Mianmian's voice was like the screech of an owl in the dead of the night, startling the others awake in a cold sweat. So, how could they be polite?

Later, perhaps because of the evil ghost and Bai Mianmian's deal, there were no more eerie incidents in the school. Even the entire Haicheng region was calm, making people feel like something was amiss.

“Daoling, what happened to make you so uneasy.” Having spent time with him, Lin Zisheng had a good grasp of his character. It was unlike Zhang Daoling, who had always been quite calm, to show other emotions.

“Nothing, I just think it has been too peaceful recently.” Although Zhang Daoling had hoped for peace like this, he knew that this was not normal.

As long as there are people in the world, there will be ghosts. As long as there is desire and greed, there will be evil spirits. These are inevitable .

At this time, Haicheng was calm and it seemed that all the ghosts had disappeared after July 15th.

“It is indeed very calm…” Lin Zisheng naturally understood Zhang Daoling's meaning, though, what he felt was even more intense.

Zhang Daoling only saw the peace on the surface, but Lin Zizhen felt a dark tide lurking under the peace.

Those ghosts never disappeared. They have been concealed under the leaders.h.i.+p of the evil ghost. They seem to be waiting for the arrival of a certain moment. Then, the acc.u.mulated power will erupt and your fears will come true – The world will be destroyed.

Of course, Lin Zisheng would not say these words aloud.

He was now Ying Qingxuan, a part of this world, and it was necessary to follow the rules of this world. Even if you knew some things, they could not be spoken.

【 Host-daren. Although you can not say it directly, but you can remind him with an indirect approach. Do not forget your adventure task, oh 】 001's voice rang, sounding so happy it made you want to spank it.

Lin Zisheng: “Hehe, can you not remind me of this annoying thing?”

Of course, Lin Zisheng noted this down in his heart. Because of the task, he had to help Zhang Daoling now. Although he didn't know what the little dark house 001 was talking about was, he could be certain it was definitely not a good thing. He didn't want to experience it at all!

“Daoling, have you ever thought that this may be that evil ghost's scheme?” Lin Zisheng floated around Zhang Daoling with an innocent look. His black pupils seemed as if they were clear springs; so clear you could see the bottom, leading others to involuntarily believe in their owner.

001: 【 Hehe, you are clearly sesame stuffed dumpling, but you intentionally display such a lovely look. Where is your conscience, my host?! 】

Lin Zisheng: 【 It was eaten by you! 】

001: 【 Hehe. Host, can I kill you? 】

At Lin Zisheng's words, Zhang Daoling frowned deeply. Originally, he only felt that the calmness was abnormal. But now, after listening to Lin Zisheng, he could not help thinking deeper.

“Daoling, Qingxuan.” Just as Zhang Daoling was pondering over the recent events, a familiar and disgusting voice sounded. Instinctively, the duo had terrible expressions. Last time, Bai Mianmian's appearance had almost lead to their deaths. What  “disasters” would she bring with her this time?!

“Is something the matter?” Zhang Daoling thought that she would have felt terrible after seeing his disgust last time, but now he felt that he was truly naive.

“Everything's fine. I just thought that you haven't been out for a long time, so can we go shopping together?” Bai Mianmian looked hopefully at Zhang Daoling, even so her eyes held caution and solemnity that was impossible to ignore.

This was the att.i.tude that disgusted Zhang Daoling. What did she mean by this? Did she act like this to force him to follow her?

“I don't believe our relations.h.i.+p is good enough to be able to walk the streets together. Also, don't call me Daoling. We are not so close.” After saying this, Zhang Daoling left, turning a blind eye to the fact that Bai Mianmian still wanted to say something.
