Aria flicked her hair and did her best to summon every ounce of her good sense. They were still standing on the campus grounds. It wouldn't be appropriate for them to set a bad example for college students. So, she pushed him off and walked ahead.Perhaps it was high time she found herself a fortune teller. Another option to go about this was to make a trip to the underworld and get information about the past life she shared with Landon. She needed to know if it had been how she imagined it. After all, he looked very much like a dark cultivator in martial arts novels, the kind that actually indulged in his carnal desires despite his cold and aloof appearance. At the very least, that was how it looked in the snippets of memories that popped up in Aria's mind. The Dracotigris Order had its ways. They probably could let her travel to the underworld and walk Hell's market or something. It would also give her the chance to look into the missing revenants, such as Hazel, the college s
"Looks good." Aria's gaze was very telling. Crow wished he had never shifted into its human form after he heard her compliment. He looked at Landon timidly. As expected, the latter grinned, but his smile didn't reach his eyes. "Oh?" Landon stared at Crow. "What do you mean?"It seemed like she really needed to get her eyes checked. Aria leaned closer to him and said, "It brings fortune to people. You can save your purple energy and use its fortune instead."Landon's fingers froze momentarily when he heard her response. His gaze softened a little, and he asked, "Are you worried about me?""That goes without saying. I've been looking after you with all my heart and soul." In all her years of medical practice, she had never cherished anyone the way she did with him. She didn't even blink when she used the medicinal ingredients. It had blatantly run against her principle of making a profit, but it was all worth it when she laid eyes on his face again. Landon noticed Aria's gaz
Several people huddled around a round table, dressed in black robes, and wore various animal masks. Creepy wouldn't begin to describe the sight, and it looked like they were performing some kind of ritual. A lit lantern was set in the middle of the round table. Vague chantings echoed in the room, and graceful music from a piano floated in the air. All of them were gathered here because they wanted to have a word with this man. He alone had the power to put an end to the challenges they faced in life, families, and more. All eyes were fixed on the back of the figure sitting at the head of the table, but there wasn't even a flicker of light in them. The figure slowly turned around and said, "Everyone, you saw the trending topic. A young lady died at Galesmere College dormitory. God is never wrong. She had the burden of sins. That was why she lived in agony and eventually chose to end her suffering. "Meanwhile, all of you continued to cling to a life of mediocrity and insignific
"Pig-butchering scam" was a telecom and online fraud scheme that originated from Solandria. Using computer technology, the scammers created fake profiles and randomly found targets in society. The first step was to get the victims' trust. Then, they would move on to defraud their targets of their private property and wealth. Nothing in Hazel's profile remotely suggested that she was a gullible person, though. Meanwhile, the article, 'Freaky Death of Galesmere College Female Student' had made the rounds all over the trending topics. Reporters would use every popular topic at their disposal. Writing it as a freaky death would definitely be more eye-catching. The death happened completely out of the blue, too. Anyone who published it first would get tons of views. On the other side, Aria was standing in the study on the second floor. The coroner was here, and the scene had been sealed up tight. Declan was no ordinary citizen. His death would undoubtedly be reported, and that def
The old man squinted when he heard what the man in black attire said. The power of the wooden doll didn't elude him. They had been friends for a long time, after all. He knew what place she would fit in as well. The Krowonians had done a lot of things in an attempt to revive their deities. Killing Leon should've been a piece of cake unless someone was there, protecting him. Also, Fabien arranged for today's incident at the Chamber of Commerce because he wanted to trap the Decators in Galesmere, which would in turn allow Leon to be taken out of the picture, thereby dealing a blow to the Carver family.By all means, no one with experience in the supernatural should've been there. It begged a question—who threw a wrench into his plans?The old man's gaze darkened. Without the beneficence of the Chamber of Commerce, he would have to seek other avenues if he wanted to restore his cultivation. "Come up with a plan and separate Homer and the Carver lady. What about Philip? Have you fo
Homer was right behind Aria as she was deep in thought. He was worried about her. She was weighed down by bad karma and kept the revenants and evil beings close to her. It was a relief that Simon recognized her as his master. He was the only thing keeping her from straying onto a dark and sinister path. That said, Homer couldn't stop himself from giving her a well-intentioned reminder. "Aria, the way you break the manifestations and recruit the spirits is harmful to yourself. It'd be wise to take it easy further down the road. With three spirits at your behest, you have more than you need.""Not a problem." Aria was nonchalant. "I can handle it."Homer sighed wearily. "That's not the point. The wraithling is under your command, is that correct? This spirit alone requires constant effort on your part to keep its vengefulness down. "After all, it has the promising potential to become the Shadowlord if it ever succeeds in reincarnating itself." At this point, he lowered his vo
