Xu Yi looked at the rcedes luxury car in front of him, equally astonished.
Wasn't it 118,000? Wasn't it a secondhand car? How did they manage to get such a rcedes luxury car?
If the driver hadn't been Ailent, he would have suspected the car was rented, considering its brand-new appearance. Could it really not be new? Anyway, as an outsider, he couldn't tell it was a secondhand car.
"Maria, do you need to take you ho?" Xu Yi, suppressing his inner doubts, spoke up to offer.
"Sure!" Maria didn't hesitate in the slightest.
Drew watched the radiant smile on Maria's face and felt his heart shatter into pieces.
Maria picked up the small snacks she had packed for Xu Yi, and as she neared the car, she suddenly stopped, turned her head to look at her "good bestie" Lily, "We should stop contacting each other from now on."
After speaking, Maria quickly got into the car, and Lily's forced smile froze, she stood there with an ugly expression, while the classmates around her took their distance.
The car door closed, the engine roared, and the black rcedes sedan rged into traffic, vanishing in front of the coffee shop, leaving the people of Saint Anna High School feeling lost.
"Brother, want a smoke?"
The car hadn't driven far when Xu Yi suddenly took out a lighter, sparking a fla.
Maria, looking at the lighter brought before her eyes, was taken aback before realizing that Xu Yi wasn't talking to her.
Xu Yi finally understood why this luxury car was so cheap. It really was a 99% new luxury car, and the purchase even ca with four Soul Rings attached!
In Xu Yi's view, four damp ghostly figures silently sat in the car, heads lowered, not speaking.
According to Xu Yi's guesses, the car must have "plunged" into a lake not long after its purchase, with all four inside experiencing their last monts together.
The four ghostly figures didn't even count as Ferocious Spirits, so naturally, Xu Yi wasn't too concerned. Having a priest pray for an Exorcism would have been the best option, but unfortunately, Xu Yi didn't possess such skills.
"Sorry! My arms aren't long enough, excuse !"
The Exorcism Lighter was a bit far from the ghostly figure next to the car door, so Xu Yi had to lean against Maria, stretching his hand out.
As a result, Xu Yi was almost pressed against Maria, and she could sll his scent, her face instantly blushed, her body felt electrified, going all tingly.
Alas, the exorcism process was very quick, not even a minute had passed, and as she watched Xu Yi leave, Maria felt a sense of loss.
Xu Yi "subdued" the ghosts with "virtue," and after a friendly exchange, the four ghostly souls were moved by Xu Yi's act of "passing the fla," and "willingly" left the rcedes luxury car.
Ailent suddenly felt light, as when he was driving before, he always felt sothing was off. He had thought it was due to being unfamiliar with the car, but now it seed that wasn't the case at all.
"Damn it!" Ailent cursed under his breath, feeling a bit embarrassed. He thought he had found a loophole, not expecting the car to have such a "big issue."
"No worries, the car is really nice, and it's right up my alley!" Xu Yi, on the other hand, didn't feel anything and praised the vehicle.
Ailent breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Xu Yi didn't mind.
"Maria, are you free lately?" Xu Yi suddenly changed the subject, gazing intently at Maria.
"I... I'm free!" Maria's heart pounded, why was Xu Yi asking these questions, could it be that he wanted to ask her out...
"I'm planning so special training for Lisa soon, are you interested? You can join us!" Xu Yi said softly.
"Special training?" Maria was stunned.
"Yes, but I have to go out tomorrow, we can start after I co back," Xu Yi nodded.
"Then... Okay!" Maria agreed, sowhat confused.
After dropping Maria off at her ho, Xu Yi drove directly to his rented place.
"The studio is already being renovated, in about five or six days, we can open for business," Ailent reported to Xu Yi the progress of the studio renovation.
Xu Yi nodded, "I'll leave the studio in your care, Jas has booked round-trip tickets for , I can go there by myself when the ti cos."
This was sothing they had discussed early in the morning, and Ailent naturally had no objections.
By the ti Xu Yi returned to his rental, the sky had already begun to darken. After hastily eating dinner, he first engraved so Necromantic Spells before starting to draw Exorcism Portraits.
Exorcism Portraits, like Necromantic Spells, also had great "money-making potential".
Holy Fla Studio was about to open soon, and if they only relied on exorcism commissions, their inco wouldn't be stable.
Therefore, Xu Yi planned to sell Exorcism Artifacts in the studio.
Firstly, it could establish the studio's reputation, and secondly, it could make a bit more money.
He had recently looked into the prices of laboratory equipnt, and they were truly hair-raising.
Because of the aftereffects of the blood essence, the Exorcism Lighter could not be mass-produced, and thus couldn't be sold as a regular product.
As a result, only Exorcism Portraits and Necromantic Spells were left.
Although he had a large number of puppets, Necromantic Spells could not be filled up in just a day or two either.
With the opening of the studio imminent, he could only get the Exorcism Portraits done to deal with the urgency.
"This is much harder than I imagined!" Xu Yi said, looking at the pile of drawings on the table and rubbing his swollen temples.
In theory, there was a 30% to 80% chance of successfully creating an Exorcism Portrait, but this chance was very elusive. He had been drawing almost all night, and yet not a single one had succeeded.
Xu Yi walked to the window, where the dawn was breaking; he had to rush to the airport soon, and there was no ti to continue drawing. He began to pack his luggage.
He yawned greatly, planning to rest on the plane.
Having drawn all night, although he hadn't produced a single finished piece, Xu Yi had generally figured out this ability.
"The key is the content of the portrait; ordinary scenery or people won't work. It must be sothing that can perform exorcisms."
Jesus? Angels?
Xu Yi shook his head. Those were the thods of the church; although effective, they were not what he hoped to see.
"Otherwise, why not design one myself, a unique Exorcism Sacred Beast for Holy Fla Studio?"
Xu Yi's thoughts suddenly expanded.
Ailent drove Xu Yi to the airport, and the business-class ticket Jas booked for him was very spacious.
"Sir, would you like so red wine?" the slender stewardess, pushing the cart, slowly approached Xu Yi.
"Just put it here!" Xu Yi didn't look up and kept on writing and drawing in his sketchbook.
The stewardess felt a wave of frustration. Was I not even as attractive as a drawing? Discover stories with empire
But the man fit her aesthetic preference so well, and that mysterious deanor was so alluring that, after a mont of thought, she slipped a small note under the wine glass with reluctance to leave.
Xu Yi was totally unaware of the flight attendant's little gesture; his attention was wholly on his drawing.
If it's going to be the Exorcism Sacred Beast of Holy Fla Studio, shouldn't it incorporate elents of flas?
The Sacred Beast had to intimidate those terrifying Evil Spirits. If it looked cute, what deterrent effect would it have? So, shouldn't its appearance be ferocious?
The Sacred Beast should possess an Exorcism Artifact. What Exorcism Artifact carries great deterrent power? Well, a sword would be a good choice!
The more Xu Yi drew, the brighter his eyes beca. Gradually, an Exorcism Sacred Beast, enshrouded in flas, twining around the Holy Sword, both ferocious and solemn, erged on the paper.
