I Don't Kill People, but I Can Kill You
A sense of annoyance began to surface in Zhao Yijiu's heart.
"I'm so useless, I didn't even notice that."
He sighed softly, decisively finished dealing with the gray clothes, and walked towards the Black Shadow.
Zhao Yijiu is a woman of few words, but she always has a lot on her mind.
For example, right now, as he walked over, he was thinking, "Since it was discovered because of my mistake, I should resolve it and erase the damage caused by the mistake in time."
Dealing with the Black Shadow figure was no small matter. His initiative surprised the Black Shadow, but the malice in its eyes intensified, and it quietly extended its withered claws.
Zhao Yijiu dodged the attack and stabbed the Black Shadow figure in the abdomen. Seeing the Black Shadow become enraged, he snorted coldly and turned to run behind the deserted stairs of the Bridge of Helplessness.
The Black Shadow speaking into his ear alone was simply driven by greed; it wanted to devour him alone.
Moreover, they are arrogant and wicked.
So it certainly wouldn't mind if he found a quiet place, making it easier for it to eat alone.
This also makes it easier for Zhao Yijiu to take action.
However, two Black Shadow walking together are too conspicuous, making it almost impossible to remain silent.
Zhao Yijiu gripped the Stop Killing, thinking to himself: Yu Xing.
As if hearing his thoughts, a white-shirt Ghost cried out in alarm, "The red-clad figures in the Yellow Springs Hall are about to fight!"
The ghosts in the Forgetfulness Hall suddenly went berserk.
A fight in red is no small matter; it's something you don't see even once in many years!
Immediately, the ghosts' attention was drawn to the Yellow Springs Hall, but before they could even catch a glimpse of the excitement, they were terrified by a strange, chilling curse.
After several low-level ghosts died in an instant, a large wave of ghosts from the Yellow Springs Hall poured into the Forgetfulness Hall.
"Kill the demon! Kill the demon!"
"Run!"
"Stop pushing, I'm going to get trampled..."
Chaos erupted instantly, and no one had the energy to pay attention to Zhao Yijiu and the Zhao Yijiu Black Shadow following her.
Zhao Yijiu's lips twitched, a barely perceptible smile appearing beneath her mask, unnoticed by anyone.
Standing in the shadows behind the stairs of the Bridge of Bridge of Helplessness, his White Face, Black Shadow emitted a strange laugh.
"You're a smart, living person. Believe me, being eaten by me all by yourself is much happier than being shared with others."
Judging from the voice, the Black Shadow was a young male ghost. It clung to Zhao Yijiu like a shadow, its claws stroking her neck. "Such fresh flesh..."
Zhao Yijiu didn't dodge; he stared intently at the Black Shadow's single eye at close range and spoke his first words to the ghost since the event began, his tone resolute. "You are hostile to the living."
"Of course!" The Black Shadow's eyes widened, and he said indignantly, "Ordinary people have no flavor at all, but you're just as delicious, always disobedient! I saw you using a sword, so you're an exorcist too, aren't you?"
Its nails are sharp, and its body is sometimes ethereal and sometimes solid, just like this elusive phantom.
"But you used to be a human being too."
Zhao Yijiu's voice was cold and aloof, yet it hit the nail on the head.
The Black Shadow paused for a moment, then suddenly suppressed a low laugh, "Hahahaha... How long has it been? How long has it been since I heard someone say I was once human? Hahahahaha... My days as a human were too short, I've long forgotten."
"It's good that you don't remember."
Hearing the Black Shadow's nonchalant mockery, Zhao Yijiu's pupils flashed crimson. He stepped back as the Black Shadow retracted his nails, the nails only leaving a shallow bloodstain on his neck.
A cold laugh escaped his throat, his eyes turning completely bloodshot, Stop Killing gaze sharp and inky black, a series of dark shadows flashing across his face at a tricky angle. "I don't kill people, but I can kill you."
Upon hearing the number the ghost had helped count, Yu Xing raised an eyebrow slightly.
It was true that he instructed Zhao Yijiu to seize the opportunity to accumulate points, but the amount still exceeded his expectations.
The Yellow Springs Disco Hall was originally the most crowded place, with more than a dozen booths, not counting the regular tables. But now all the ghosts have run away, and most of them have gone to the Forgetfulness Hall Forgetfulness Hall has become crowded.
Killing a ghost in full view of everyone is difficult.
However, the excessive number of ghosts also gave Zhao Yijiu the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos. It was like a murderer carrying a weapon sneaking into a grand stage play and killing an actor in front of millions of viewers, but the audience didn't even notice who did it.
You must strike when all the ghosts are distracted, then quietly retreat and find your next victim...
Not all strategists can do it.
Even if one's mental fortitude meets the requirements, without the corresponding physical skills, doing this kind of thing is a dead end. In Yu Xing's memory, among the people he knows, there are fewer than ten who meet the requirements.
Qu Xuanqing would be easy to deal with, Zhao Yijiu is barely qualified, there's a young junior from the Luo family, the guy who tricked him with flowers before, and... the Lingren.
And then there's Yu Xing himself—if he were given a sharp weapon.
In short, he believed Zhao Yijiu was a qualified assassin, so he entrusted the task to her, and sure enough, Zhao Yijiu did not disappoint him.
This number of ghosts may not all have been killed by Zhao Yijiu. While he deliberately caused a commotion to provide Zhao Yijiu with a better hunting environment, other strategists could also take advantage of the chaos to kill some low-level ghosts.
But it was still pretty good. He believed that, at least within the Forgetfulness Hall, their group had the highest profits.
The only uncertainty was Zhu Ming and Zhang Xiangling in the Other Shore Hall. How much preparation these two had made while everyone else had gone to the second floor was unknown to Yu Xing.
Even so, Yu Xing smiled with satisfaction. Zhao Yijiu was more talented than he had imagined. Once Zhao Yijiu advanced to the Differentiation Tier, they might be able to continue being teammates.
Well... the premise is that Zhao Mou doesn't take Zhao Yijiu away, after all, the Zhao family raised her, and the Zhao family can't just not use her.
On the other side, watching the commotion caused by Yu Xing, the DJ put down his phone and stared intently at him.
Now that there are no ghosts in the Yellow Springs Hall, will he take the opportunity to check the vending machines?
Having discovered that many ghosts had been killed, the Forgetfulness Hall had long since shifted its focus back to the already concluded dispute between the red-clad figures.
This is the perfect opportunity!
They went to such lengths to create this gap, probably just for the stuff in the vending machine, right?
However, Yu Xing did not act as she expected. Instead, with the arrogance of a victor, she turned away with a flick of her sleeve.
I didn't sit down, nor did I go to the Forgetfulness Hall or the Other Shore Hall, and I didn't even approach the vending machine.
He went to the toilet.
DJ: "... Huh?"
However, even she didn't notice that at the junction of the Other Shore Hall and the Yellow Springs Hall, a woman in red leaned against the wall, staring at Yu Xing's back with great interest.
Her mask was a smiling face, and only the upper half was visible, revealing a delicate chin and scarlet lips.
The two eyes on the mask are curved, giving it a cunning look.
The woman in red held a glass of red liquor, took a sip, and murmured with a hint of regret, "Didn't you check the vending machine? This one really isn't...?"
Yu Xing turned into the restroom, leaned against the wall, and looked at the woman's clothes from a distance.
"Hmm... did you think I wouldn't notice just because you were hiding in a well-hidden spot?"
He had already discovered it.
So, women are scary, and Female Ghost are scary too.
He only refused this red-clad ghost's invitation once, so why is he staring at him like that?
Yu Xing withdrew her gaze, chuckled softly, and then her eyes fell on the last stall in the restroom.
