Chapter 1076: Chapter 27: Waiting Here for a Fated One
“Did Wang Yunxiao call just now?”
Li Mumu heard the sound and ran downstairs, only to find that Mu Yuming had already hung up the phone.
The old father looked up, frowning slightly as he gazed at his daughter, who was barefoot and unruly.
Not yet married, and already turning her elbow outward.
“Work-related matters.”
“He was transferred to the Navy, what work-related matters could there be?”
“There’s sothing, don’t go out in the next couple of days, stay ho and don’t run around.”
“Oh?”
Li Mumu’s curiosity was instantly ignited.
“Did you get into trouble outside?”
“It’s not really trouble.”
Mu Yuming didn’t want to talk much about the Chamber of Comrce matters with his daughter.
Especially when the other party obviously had ill intentions.
“Rest early, don’t stay up late reading books.”
Wasting such precious youth by not staying up late.
Li Mumu nodded obediently on the surface, but was already calculating karma behind the scenes.
It’s actually difficult to calculate karma at ho.
Because of the huge interference source that is Li Ya.
Her mother, a witch researching High-Dinsional String Theory, is an expert in manipulating threads of fate.
She’s usually low-key and reclusive, not going out unless necessary.
But ordinary people shouldn’t even think about entering this house.
Just like the unbreakable vows in Han Libo’s novels, Li Mumu’s ho is also protected by magic, and anyone uninvited couldn’t even find the door; even if they manage to get inside, they’re rely stepping into a false mirror.
This magic itself isn’t particularly sophisticated.
But Li Ya’s sophistication lies in the fact that almost no one can detect any trace of its existence.
Calculating karma at ho would be affected by this magic, yielding utterly nonsensical answers.
Li Mumu calculated for half a day to no avail, turned back to her room, and took out her notebook to ssage Wang Yunxiao.
“What are you up to?”
A few minutes later, a line of text appeared on the notebook.
“Can you co out, et at the usual place.”
The usual place…
Li Mumu’s previously casual expression started to turn serious.
What is the usual place?
“It’s already so late, I’ve already laid down.”
“It’s sothing very important, let’s talk about it in person.”
Sothing’s definitely off.
If it were really Wang Yunxiao, he would say, “What ti is it?”
This notebook was surely starting to act funny again.
This wasn’t the first ti it malfunctioned.
If an ordinary person crossed paths and picked up this notebook that’s akin to AI, they would most likely consider it a golden opportunity bestowed by a high-dinsional narrator.
But Li Mumu didn’t need such dubious tricks, she usually just used it as QQ.
Should I go out for a bit?
This thought twirled in Li Mumu’s mind only once before she reached her conclusion.
No!
The lady here is about to get married soon, why not stay at ho to cultivate oneself, why run into wild n and won in the middle of the night?
And most importantly—there’s still that dead fox from the Tushan clan outside.
……
People who’ve never had soybean juice don’t know how disgusting it is, yet there are always those who refuse to believe and want to try it, otherwise, it feels like their life isn’t complete.
The notebook remained quiet today, as if in peaceful tis, with demons hiding and lurked.
No, it is truly peaceful tis.
This made Uesugi Risa feel very troubled.
Idle all day, wandering everywhere, her clothes becoming increasingly slim.
Even with determined diet efforts, the situation remained unchanged.
Scientifically speaking, having lived through hard tis before, finally eating proper als, the body fat would reactively rebound, which is a normal physiological change.
But applied to herself, it’s ultimately unacceptable.
Pinching her belly fat, the little witch felt a bit neurotic.
The weather continued to heat up; she could no longer use thick clothes to deceive herself.
Lords, find sothing to do quickly!
With school on break, the little witch’s part-ti job was canceled, so besides actively cleaning the estate, there was nothing to do, and her physical activity suddenly decreased.
Afraid to go out and wander in broad daylight, wearing a witch costu and holding a scythe, she inevitably attracted neighborhood scrutiny. Unlike her hotown where sincere bowing would occur, in this foreign land without belief, people would look at her as if she were insane.
A little witch with slightly social anxiety could only patrol at night, eagerly hoping to bump into so oblivious evil spirits.
However, even on the first day of the month, the cursed tis, the streets were clean.
Not even a rogue could be seen.
“So why exactly am I here?”
The little witch was deeply troubled, vaguely feeling that she might have been left in play by the Lords, but if told to return ho, she absolutely wouldn’t.
Couldn’t return anymore.
The deep mountain shrine without candied haws and boiled lamb had nothing worth longing for.
As the moon began to tilt, another peaceful night passed, Uesugi Risa couldn’t help but yawn.
Then, no sound ca as she silently gripped the hilt of Fifty-five Temple scythe.
A person quietly erged on the street ahead.
They looked like a Western maid, yet covered with golden armor, like a puppet.
“Good evening, Divine Witch.”
The chanical maid lifted her skirt slightly and bowed.
Uesugi Risa perked up her spirit, coldly asked: “What kind of monstrosity are you?”
“No need to be tense, of course, you wouldn’t recognize in this form.”
The chanical maid smiled slightly, neon lights instantly lit up behind her, manifesting nine plush soft fox tails in the night.
“Y, Tamamo-no-Mae?”
Uesugi Risa’s pupils shook: “Lord Killing Hall?”
It’s no wonder she’d have such a thought.
It’s widely known that the Black Dragon Princess, the Master of Ten Thousand Transformations, suppresses Fusang, unifies Shinto, with eight Divine Witches guarding all regions.
But the specific eight Divine Witches, even Fusang’s naturalized citizens may not necessarily clearly state.
Actually, there are only seven Divine Witches; Uesugi Risa’s western journey is primarily to search for traces of the eighth Divine Witch on earth.
The one whom Uesugi Risa linked with so many tails is none other than the Divine Witch from Rikugun County’s Nikkō Grand Shrine, known as Lord Killing Hall.
Unlike Yahata Shrine’s previous attendant Hachiman Bodhisattva, Nikkō Grand Shrine’s forr attendant wasn’t a deity, but a great demon fox, the Nine-tailed Fox Tamamo-no-Mae, who had once wreaked havoc in Fusang before being suppressed there.
Hequ Hall and Killing Hall, one governs life, the other death, routinely not interacting. In her early years, Uesugi Risa only heard of her, never seeing the true form of that Divine Witch.
But common sense says─ shouldn’t look like this? Studying abroad?”
