She looked at the door, where a nine-tailed fox was sitting; she looked at the TV, where a mermaid was blocking the screen; she looked at the window, where ten shiny, crystal-clear white butterflies were fluttering; she entered the secret kingdom, but was kicked back out by the white-haired little girl as soon as she entered.

In short, all escape routes are blocked.

"Mercy...mercy..." She trembled and began to beg for mercy.

But what he saw was a look of no pity in Zhiyao's eyes. Although Xili next to him hesitated for a moment, her expression returned to indifference the next second.

Like a red-hot blade cutting butter, the blade pierced Sadako's body without any resistance.

The moment she was stabbed, Sadako felt as if the wound was being burned by fire, and then the flames roamed wantonly in various parts of her body.

In an instant, Sadako instinctively struggled and twisted her body, and her heart-wrenching screams of pain echoed in the house, one after another. Then, when the golden light of the seven swords moved across her body in the shape of spreading ripples, she no longer moved, and her remains gradually melted into the void.

At the same time, all the lights in the house came back on and the TV screen returned to the horror movie that was previously playing.

"I can't sense that guy anymore." Yaoboji pricked up her ears, turned her head around, and after confirming again and again, she told Zhiyao, "He must be really dead."

"I also think that a minion like that has no chance of survival after being stabbed by that weapon." Jiuwei agreed, and the cold and arrogant voice of a queen appeared in Zhiyao's head.

After determining the source of the sound, Zhiyao couldn't help but be surprised. She stretched out her fingers to the Nine-Tailed Fox's chin and scratched it gently. She even began to imagine what it would look like as a beast-eared girl with fox ears.

"Put away your wild ideas."

After being advised like this, Zhiyao smiled embarrassedly and scratched his scalp.

Just then, the door of the room was opened and Wuming walked in.

"How are you two? Are you okay?" Wuming asked with great concern. When he saw the complete version of Chu Yeshi Sword in Zhiyao's hand, he immediately understood.

"Hey, why are you here?" Zhiyao was delighted.

"Good evening, Miss Wuming." Xili greeted.

Wu Ming smiled awkwardly, not hiding anything: "I was worried, so I came here to check on the situation."

"Then behind you..." Zhiyao pointed at the shoulder bag behind her that looked like a musical instrument bag.

Upon hearing this, Wuming took it down and opened it without saying a word, pulling out the folded naginata sickle from it, "As for weapons, you must bring them with you."

Zhiyao tried to lift it, but it was unexpectedly heavy, probably more than 30 kilograms.

"Thank you for your concern, boss." Zhiyao said as he took off the blade and handed it to Wuming. The moment he took it off, the spirit stones on it scattered all over the ground, and the weapon returned to the shape of a dagger.

"So self-aware? That's a bit surprising." Wuming teased with great interest, "I was wondering if you would argue with me for the custody of these things."

"Because he has other gains." Xili suddenly interrupted.

How could you even say this out loud!

Zhiyao looked at Xili in disbelief, and then heard Xili declare frankly: "He accepted 50000 yen as a reward."

"Did you take the money?" Wuming widened his eyes and smiled evilly.

"Uh uh uh." Zhiyao turned away guiltily.

"Since you've taken the money and borrowed the artifact from me, it wouldn't be unreasonable for me to get a piece of the pie, right?"

"I'm participating too. I want one too." Xili agreed decisively.

"Ah this..."

Zhiyao was extremely reluctant at this moment, so much so that he blamed Xili for saying it, but after meeting Xili's eyes, for some reason, he read a hint of interest in it, and gradually realized that this girl did it on purpose.

Finally, Zhiyao had no choice but to endure the pain of cutting flesh and said reluctantly: "Then... you two will each give 10,000 yen."

"No, three, three, four." Wu Ming rejected it mercilessly. "You take the lion's share of the commission, and thirty percent is enough for both of us. That's a deal. Remember to send the money to me next time."

After Wuming finished speaking, she walked away leisurely. After she left, Xili turned to Zhiyao, deliberately sighed in an exaggerated voice in front of her, and then walked out the door second.

"Hey, where are you going?" Zhiyao asked.

"Take a shower." Xili said without even turning her head.

About twenty minutes later, Xili came back into the room in her pajamas, opened the closet door, picked up the quilt and pillow inside and walked out. Seeing this, Zhiyao hurried forward to stop her.

"Where are you going..."

Xili was puzzled and replied as a matter of course: "Go back to your room and sleep."

"Uh, you want to... go back?"

"Yeah, wasn't Sadako dealt with? She's no longer in danger. I'll definitely go back to my room."

How could Zhiyao not guess such a thing?

"Even so...I still feel..." He began to stammer.

"What exactly do you want to say?" Xili urged.

In fact, Xili is not stupid. How could she not guess what Zhiyao wanted to express?

But she wouldn't say anything, and the person involved had to express his or her opinion personally.

"I..." Zhiyao hesitated to speak.

"If you have something to say, please say it quickly. If you don't, I'll go back. I have to get up early tomorrow."

Instantly, Zhiyao had an idea, "Didn't we just watch a horror movie? Aren't you scared at all?"

Xili was speechless and rolled her eyes. "Can any horror movie be scarier than Sadako?"

"Ahaha, that seems to be the case."

Wuhui couldn't bear it anymore and was ready to speak up for Zhiyao.

As soon as he left the boarding house, Zhiyao suddenly realized what was happening and hurriedly stopped it.

"No, no, I'll do it myself." He persuaded Wu Hui, and at the same time his gaze shifted to Yuri's. After staring at each other for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "I hope you can continue to live here."

"Why?" Xili asked with interest.

"Because... I have a roommate." Zhiyao scratched his head as he spoke, "Don't you find it interesting living together these days, especially the conversations before bed?"

"Then I'll sleep very late." Looking at Zhiyao meaningfully, Xili slowly turned her back.

Zhiyao slowly came behind her.

"Then let's talk less."

"You talk in your sleep and snore, which often disturbs my sleep." Xili said maliciously.

"Get lost, there's obviously no such thing. I asked Wuhui and Baiju." Zhiyao dismissed it calmly.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xili turned half of her face to the side and stared at Zhiyao with a meaningful glance. After a long time, she bent down and put the pillow and quilt back on the ground.

Seeing this, Zhiyao felt as happy as if she were in spring breeze.

"You agreed?"

"Hurry up and take a shower." Xili urged as she spread out her bed. "I need to go to bed early. Come back soon."

He nodded immediately, packed up all his things and went to the bathroom.

……

At half past eleven, two pairs of eyes stared at the ceiling from under the covers on either side of the low table.

As one of them turned his gaze towards the other, the other turned over and faced the person looking at him.

"Xili, hehe." Zhiyao spoke first.

Maintaining the side-lying position, Xili lifted the quilt up to cover her chin.

"what?"

"I want to get to know you better."

Hearing this, Xili suddenly felt something was strange, especially the more she thought about it, the more she felt there was a hint of ambiguity in the words.

"Why... do you suddenly want to understand me?" she asked after thinking for a moment.

"I just want to understand. Is there something wrong?" Zhiyao answered as a matter of course, "Think about it, we've known each other for such a long time, right? Not only are we similar in all kinds of experiences, but we're also roommates. Shouldn't we get to know each other better?"

It seemed to make sense, and Xili stopped imagining things and asked calmly, "What do you want to know?"

"More information about you, hehe, mainly family members, brothers and sisters and so on..."

For some reason, Xili's response remained silent. Zhiyao regretted her decision and hastily changed her words, "Well, I'm just a little curious and want to get to know you better... Or maybe you shouldn't answer."

However, three seconds after she finished speaking, Xili suddenly got up from the bed and walked out the door.

Worried, Zhiyao followed her out decisively. He walked to the corridor and saw her go into the bathroom before returning to his room and getting into bed.

A few minutes later, Xili returned and, as she slid into bed, she took the initiative to speak: "It's been so long, and while it's still a little sad to think about it, I won't dwell on it anymore. So, your question isn't really a big deal, really."

"Is that so..." Zhiyao finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Hehehe, I still don't want you to show off."

"I'm not trying to be brave. I'm telling you, my father can't be called Fang Risheng."

In an instant, Zhiyao's heart skipped a beat and her body trembled involuntarily.

Chapter 161: [Sadako Shows Goodwill]

Later, Xili continued to talk about many things in the past. This was the first time in her history that she took the initiative to reveal her past to others.

She was immersed in the memories of the past until almost one in the morning when she suddenly woke up, said good night in a hurry and went to bed.

However, what she didn't know was that Zhiyao later suffered from insomnia.

Because the news was too explosive.

I thought that guy was at most a relative, but I never expected that he was actually Xili's biological father.

Yuri's actual age is 17. Judging from the fact that the Rishangshan incident occurred in 2006, she would not have been born until the year after next, in 1989.

It seems that the guy named Risheng is not married yet, or he has a wife but Xili is not pregnant yet.

Zhiyao kept thinking about these things, which made it increasingly difficult for her to fall asleep. Finally, around four in the morning, she finally lost consciousness in a daze.

……

In his dream, Zhiyao was walking in the underground passage leading to the Abyss. Just as he entered the corridor of Mingshen Gate, he suddenly felt a strong shock under his feet, causing him to stagger and shake unsteadily.

At the same time, a familiar voice came to my ears from time to time.

"Sikong, Sikong."

With a start, everything around him began to become blurry. Zhiyao, whose head was still in a daze, opened his eyes and gradually saw the scenery around him clearly.

"It's almost 8:20, why haven't you gotten up yet?" Xili was full of questions. "Didn't you hear the alarm?"

"Huh?" Zhiyao was slightly surprised and slowly stood up. "It's already so late?"

"Are you feeling unwell?" Xili put her hand on Zhiyao's forehead, carefully feeling the body temperature.

"No, hehe." Zhiyao took the opportunity to rub her palm, with a satisfied arc on the corner of his mouth, "It's because of you that I overslept."

Upon hearing this, Xili reflexively frowned for a moment.

"You'd better tell me something new. If you keep snoring and talking in your sleep, I'll make you pay." Xili said as she began to rub her hands together, and then added a warning snort.

Looking at Xili like this, Zhiyao suddenly felt that something was wrong for some reason.

I don’t know how to describe it exactly, but the feeling Xili gives people is a little different from usual.

"Answer quickly, I have to go out to work." When there was no reply from the other side, Xili urged.

"It's nothing, I was just saying it casually." Zhiyao yawned.

"No, you must be hiding something from me." Xili changed her tone to one of certainty.

"Why do you think so?" Zhiyao remained calm and composed.

"I know how to see."

Xili said, reaching for Zhiyao's forehead. Seeing this, Zhiyao quickly backed away and protested, "Can you please stop using the "Look" method all the time? It's really against the rules, okay?"

"Then tell me."

"I won't tell you. What, unless..." Zhiyao paused, her evil smile becoming more obvious, "Come into bed."

Hearing this, the color in Xili's eyes disappeared and her gaze became cold.
