t to behold." Teacher Xiaowang was waiting for us at the entrance of the inn across the bridge. Jiang Qiyun rarely transformed into his physical form, but when he did, he drew an abundance of stares....Because Jiang Qiyun had already placed a curse mark on me a long time ago.

The mandala tattoo on my chest, he gave it to me as a mark of his undying love.

As long as my soul remains within the ten directions and three realms, I cannot escape his palm.

So, the blood pact with Yin Su Bai doesn't have any effect on me.

"...The blood pact of demons is passed down through generations until death." Yin Su Bai explained coldly.

Passed down through generations Passed down through generations...

Before, I'd heard that the Demon Lord had believers in the mortal world. If a man made a contract, he and his descendants would bear a mark on their bodies. If a woman made a contract...

"No way! To her!" My head spun.

No wonder this white light looks familiar! It's that pendant! Yu Gui took it to play with as a ball.

"I... I'll return the beads to you right away. Please, don't take it!" I was so scared, I was about to cry.

"Lay your hands on her" Yin Su Bai's tone finally grew impatient: "Just a little girl, what are you going to do"

"But, but wouldn't your mark become a gateway The Lord of the Demon Realm, the scouts, they could come to the world through it! She's so small!" I was desperate, close to madness. I didn't care about the danger around me, I rushed to Yin Su Bai's face and yelled at him.

Yin Su Bai coldly turned around: “….She has the protection of the Azure Emperor and the Jade Mother, who would dare to provoke her”

Huh Really, really

Remember, Chong Mo once got so agitated in my shop that he practically jumped out of his skin, wanting to take back that pendant.

Yes, given Chong Mo's personality, he wouldn't actually just "grab" it directly, would he

And Jiang Qiyun directly threw a bead to Yu Gui, letting him play with it. He didn't worry at all that this bead would attract anything.

"But...if it's like this, wouldn't it fall down" I didn't know how to explain my worry.

"...That's because you're here, so the space tilts, so that you can see her...the connection of blood." Yin Su Bai's voice gradually faded away.

Then, then I have to go out quickly.

I ran quickly toward him, the bird keeping pace with me, its eyes following my every move.

After running for a while, suddenly a crack let in a glimmer of light.

Is this the exit I didn't have time to take a good look, so I rushed out.

A sudden burst of light blinded me, before I could even make out the surroundings, a scream of terror pierced the air!

"AAAAAAA—"

"Hey, is that Chen Ruo's voice"

"It's me, it's me..." I rubbed my eyes and said, "Don't be afraid..."

"How is that possible not to be afraid!! Sister Mu, how did you appear out of thin air!" Chen Ruoduo cried, shouting in a choked voice.

This... This is how hard it is to walk the path of their Demon Realm. What can I do about it...

》》》

After my eyes adjusted to the light, I saw that I had landed in the bathroom!

Yin Su Bai this person...no, this god, no, this demon! Really is a single-minded person ah!

Wherever Chen Ru is, that's where you throw me!

They just finished showering! My goodness! They haven't even put on their outer clothes, only pants and underwear.

I'm so embarrassed, luckily we are both girls!

Chen Ru originally had a phobia of restrooms, and I admire her for still daring to stay in the research institute!

She was so scared that she collapsed to the ground, her half-buttoned sweatshirt falling beside her. She cowered against the wall, looking utterly terrified.

I... I'm so scared....

It's not that I'm afraid of her, it's that I'm afraid of the white impermanence spirit behind her!

It's just so vague, hanging behind her! There's only a silhouette!

Chen was so scared that she crouched on the ground, looking like she had fallen and was hugging Qiyē's leg...

I'm more afraid, okay!

What is Qixing trying to do!

This distraction is more like a silent, emotionless surveillance camera.

I wonder where the Seven Lords are now, if they're watching this, and if they've written it down with a summoning scroll!

“I’m sorry, I… I was thrown here by…” I helped Chen Ruo up and put her coat on.

Chen, with panda eyes and bloodshot gaze, nodded understandingly: "It's nothing, it's nothing... Seeing Elder Sister Mu gives me a sense of security..."

But I see the white skeleton behind you, it makes me feel insecure!

"Mu Jiejie Where is that person" Chen Ruo whispered.

I don't know... As the ruler of the Demon Realm, you definitely shouldn't be with me in a place like the restroom, right

"... I finished the restoration." Chen Ruo whispered.

As soon as she finished speaking, the lights in the bathroom and outside flickered a few times.

"Ahhh!" She screamed and clung to my arm.

"Don't, don't be afraid... I guess he's here..." I turned the bathroom door knob —

In the institute's hall, two computer screens flickered slightly, and the ceiling lights flickered and died.

Yin Su's white back was like a phantom, silently standing outside the glow of the computer screen, leaving only this faint light.

I don't want to waste time, turning to Chen Ruodao: "What about the restored picture"

Chen turned back to his senses and rushed over to pull away the computer chair.

"Mujie, I can only make a simple 2D diagram. It takes some time to create a 3D full model..."

"In places like ours, because the climate is humid and the soil is naturally moist, it's generally difficult for bodies to become mummified... This should be considered a 'wet corpse'."

Corpse

I looked at her in puzzlement.

Chen stared intently at the screen, continuing to explain to me.

The skin of the wet corpse is more elastic, while a dry corpse will be tight and appear very thin. And this body itself is very small, extremely small! Preliminary aging estimates indicate that these bones belong to an eight or nine-year-old child....

What This small

And I found some red medicinal residue on the body...

Chen Ru took out a sealed, transparent small box: "This is a speck of powder scraped from the coffin band under the fear of being scared to death. It has been confirmed to be cinnabar."

I twitched my lips—you're still afraid of being scared to death

I'm afraid even corpses would be scared of you!

In this cemetery, there lives a person who studies haunted corpses! I am truly impressed.

On one hand, he was so frightened his face turned pale, but on the other hand, he studied it with great interest.

Could this be the dignity researchers speak of

The presence of cinnabar indicates that this corpse was "processed" before being placed in the coffin.

In the 1990s, the country unearthed an ancient mummy known as a blood corpse.

It sounds terrifying, but in reality the blood-like appearance on corpses is due to the preservative placed in the coffin containing cinnabar.

Moreover, ancients sought longevity. Only a small number of people would reclusive themselves in deep mountains and cultivate diligently. Most people, especially the powerful and wealthy, chose to take "elixirs".

These medicinal herbs are harmful to the body, but they do have some bactericidal effect. Unfortunately, this is not the right way and often leads to an early death.

We initially thought it was a child's body, but we were surprised by how "small" it was!

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!c parts, just took a distant side shot from afar, like a statue of a deity.But my gaze fell upon the base of the statue, and the color of that base...She whispered, "I didn't believe this at first, ne...
