Under Wang Ye's home, the woman with the bronze nail nailed to her head stood in the residential area, looking up with vacant eyes silently gazing at the window of Wang Ye's home.
Blood kept dripping down from her forehead.
The passersby around seemed to turn a blind eye to this.
For a long time...
She retracted her gaze and walked into the corridor of Wang Ye's building.
In the quiet stairwell, the sound of footsteps kept echoing...
With the low thuds, the woman appeared at Wang Ye's door and stopped.
The woman's somewhat vacant eyes flashed a trace of color, then quickly dimmed again without making any more sounds, like a lifeless body.
...
Inside the room, Wang Ye wearily sat on the sofa to rest.
In just two short weeks, too many things had happened, keeping his nerves tense all the time.
Taking out the Lei Yin fruit from his pocket, looking at the mysterious stripes covering the golden fruit, a flash of brightness appeared in Wang Ye's eyes.
"All effort will lead to reward."
A trace of satisfaction showed on Wang Ye's face. Then he gently bit into the Lei Yin fruit.
The next second, the Lei Yin fruit lit up with brilliant golden light, illuminating the entire room brightly...
Outside the door, strands of golden light spilled out, shining on the woman's body. The numb expression on the woman's face twisted slightly, a bizarre color flashing through her eyes.
Silent for a few seconds, the woman retreated two steps back, hiding outside the golden light, and stood motionless again.
Inside the room, Wang Ye felt a hot flow going down his throat.
Unlike the forced pouring in the post office, this energy was much milder, continuously flowing inside Wang Ye's body.
He could clearly feel his body's functions, just strengthened not long ago, enhancing again.
And his skin turned translucent and crystal clear, giving off faint golden light.
After a long time, the golden light gradually faded away. Wang Ye closed his eyes, sensing the changes inside his body, a trace of smile at the corners of his mouth.
Compared to before, his physical fitness had risen another level.
Clenching his fist, Wang Ye thought for a bit...
Now without using any abilities, he could probably match half a Yang Chen.
Each time an ability awakened, this energy would wash over his body once, achieving the strengthening effect. He had only awakened once, yet his body had been enhanced three times.
Wang Ye increasingly looked forward to the next awakening.
Just as Wang Ye could barely withstand the tiredness and was about to fall asleep, the phone rang.
Wang Ye frowned slightly, looking at Zhang ZiLiang's name somewhat helplessly.
"Hey, Wang Ye, come to headquarters, there's a meeting," Zhang ZiLiang's voice was as calm as ever.
Wang Ye said tiredly, "Does the logistics department's meeting need me to participate...I'm a bit tired today."
"It's headquarters' meeting."
Zhang ZiLiang paused for a few seconds, "Regarding team spots allocation."
...
Wang Ye breathed out slightly, massaging his temples, "Wait for me."
After speaking, Wang Ye hung up the phone, vigorously rubbed his face to invigorate himself, tidied up simply, and opened the door.
The moment this door opened...
Wang Ye was completely spirited. His entire person rapidly retreated backwards.
The hemp ropes had entwined his hands somehow without him noticing, the bloodstained bone knife tied between the ropes and his palms. His other hand radiated blood red light, a ghostly face surfacing on his palm, revealing an eerie smile.
In just three seconds, all hidden cards were revealed.
All because of where he was standing...
A woman was standing there.
A woman who should have been sealed.
Back then at 404, he had nailed that nail in with his own hands.
After Wang Ye's series of actions, the woman seemed unaware, standing stiffly in place, eyes vacant, the bronze nail still nailed to her forehead.
Wang Ye stood in place, silently confronting the woman.
Sweat kept dripping down his forehead, but Wang Ye didn't dare make any movements, his gaze fixed tightly on the woman.
Damn!
How did she get out!
Why did she come looking for him!
Wang Ye's mind involuntarily recalled when he left Shen Yuan residential area, the woman standing at the window watching him with resentful eyes.
That creepy feeling was still fresh in Wang Ye's memory.
As time passed slowly, the cold sweat had soaked Wang Ye's clothes, but the woman kept standing in place, keeping Wang Ye's heart suspended nervously.
And doubts gradually flashed through Wang Ye's eyes as he stared fixedly at the bronze nail.
The bronze nail was still firmly nailed into the woman's forehead.
"Could it be...she's still sealed?"
"But how did she appear at my door...using her consciousness?"
Wang Ye gradually figured it out in his mind, but couldn't confirm. To be safe, he took out his phone and called Zhou Han.
"Hey, come over, something's up."
Without waiting for Zhou Han to speak, Wang Ye decisively hung up, still watching the woman coldly.
Probably a few seconds later, the door across slammed open and Zhou Han rushed over angrily, "Wang Ye, what are you doing! You think I'm your maid?"
As Zhou Han came to the woman's side, Wang Ye's pupils slightly contracted, his gaze fixed tightly on the woman.
Seeing that the woman had no reaction at all, only then did he slowly relax, looking at Zhou Han, "Just wanted to introduce a new neighbor to you."
As he spoke, Wang Ye pointed at the woman.
Zhou Han reflexively looked over, then his hair instantly stood on end as he rapidly retreated backwards, leaning against the wall with five golden flying knives dancing in midair.
"Wang Ye, damn you!"
"You tricked me!"
Zhou Han kept his eyes on the woman while gnashing his teeth and cursing fiercely.
Five now huh?
The prayer beads really enhanced her psychic power it seems.
Wang Ye silently analyzed, then revealed an innocent expression, "I'm just introducing you to the new neighbor, to say hi."
As Wang Ye's voice fell, the woman stiffly turned around and looked at Zhou Han, raising her arm eerily and waving at Zhou Han with vacant eyes.
Wang Ye, Zhou Han silently watched this scene, both gasping.
Wang Ye was even more creeped out!
He had said to greet her, he didn't expect this woman...
To actually do it!
And Zhou Han was terrified that this woman actually listened to Wang Ye's words!
"I...I won't dissect you, can you make her stop looking at me?" Zhou Han looked at Wang Ye aggrievedly, a trace of fear in her eyes.
Wang Ye thought for a bit, "Take one step forward and look at me."
As his voice fell, the woman really took a step forward and turned her head, looking at Wang Ye vacantly.
What is going on!
Wang Ye's expression was solemn, his mind racing.
After a long time, a trace of madness flashed through his eyes.
He knew this woman was powerful! If he could control her, in the short term he would definitely gain Top Tier combat strength in Beijing City.
Although there might be some risks...
But...
Wang Ye had never been afraid to gamble.
Mad gambler Wang Ye...online!
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
