The morning sunlight shone in from the window, casting dappled shadows on Lin Xiaoxiao's face, but her expression appeared unusually serious. She sat on the edge of the bed, tightly holding the silver pendant in her hand, her thoughts spinning rapidly. Everything that happened at school last night played over and over in her mind like a chaotic movie. She remembered the sharp gaze of Gu Sha and the ambiguous attitude of Sheng Bai, filling her heart with confusion.
Putting on her most frequently worn loose T-shirt and jeans, Lin Xiaoxiao decided to go back to school to investigate again. As she walked onto the campus, everything seemed normal, but her intuition told her that beneath this calmness lay hidden secrets.
During her lunch break, she went to the library alone. The silence of the library sharply contrasted with the hustle and bustle outside. Walking past the bookshelves, her gaze wandered among the books, but her mind was preoccupied with the unusual phenomena at school. Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly heard a faint sound, like someone whispering, in her ear.
She nervously looked around, but there was nothing except the quiet bookshelves. At that moment, she felt a slight chill rising from her feet. Subconsciously, she followed this feeling to the farthest corner of the library. There, some ancient books were displayed, seemingly rarely touched. As she reached out to touch the spines of those books, suddenly an ancient book slipped from the shelf and opened to a chapter about ancient spells and summoning of spirits.
Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes were instantly drawn, and she began to read the ancient texts seriously. As she delved deeper into the reading, she was astonished to find that these incantations astonishingly matched some recent events at the school. She felt a sense of unease; this ancient knowledge should not be casually uncovered.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the library seemed to change, filled with a sense of oppression. Lin Xiaoxiao looked around and saw a black mist silently flowing between the bookshelves, causing her heart to leap into her throat. This was no ordinary phenomenon, but the manifestation of some kind of spirit.
She immediately took out her phone and sent a message to Gu sha, informing him of the abnormality at the library. Before long, Gu sha appeared at the library entrance, his eyes revealing a sense of seriousness.
"What happened?" Gu sha asked.
Lin Xiaoxiao told Gu sha about her discovery in the library and the strange black mist. Gu sha furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, and then said, "These incantations are likely related to the recent soul disturbances. We need to investigate more carefully."
They began searching for any possible clues in the library. As the investigation deepened, they discovered that some pages of these ancient books had been deliberately perused. This indicated that someone was seeking this ancient knowledge and may have already begun experimenting.
Gu sha and Lin Xiaoxiao decided to bring this discovery back to Underworld for further analysis. That night, they arrived at the file room of Underworld and began studying these ancient texts.
After a thorough investigation, they discovered that these incantations were related to an ancient soul-summoning ritual, which was extremely dangerous. If used improperly, the consequences would be unimaginable. Gu sha and Lin Xiaoxiao realized that they must find the originators of this ritual and stop their plans.
They returned to the human world and began searching for clues around the school. They secretly observed the behavior of students and teachers, looking for any suspicious signs. Just then, Lin Xiaoxiao noticed a student behaving strangely, showing a particular interest in the ancient books in the library.
She and Gu Sha decided to follow this student. As they continued to tail him, they discovered that this student was actually associated with some delinquents, who were the masterminds behind the recent disturbances at the school.
Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha decided to take action. They formulated a plan to round up these people at night. As night fell, the school became quiet. Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha hid in the darkness, waiting for the appearance of those delinquents.
At midnight, the open space behind the library was shrouded in a mysterious and solemn atmosphere. Moonlight spilled onto this quiet land, and there was a hint of unusual tension in the air. This was a crucial moment, an unknown ritual was about to unfold here.
Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha hid in the darkness, quietly observing. Their eyes were sharp, like a cheetah, tightly focused on the imminent target. Among these students, there was a certain unusual aura between them, a kind that only those well-versed in the supernatural could sense.
As expected, a group of delinquent teenagers quietly appeared in the open space. Their movements were light and cautious, as if afraid of disturbing something. Some of these students held ancient scrolls, while others carried strange talismans and mysterious tools. They formed a circle and began chanting unknown incantations in low voices.
Lin Xiaoxiao's heart rate quickened as she could feel that the ritual being performed by these students was anything but ordinary. She turned to look at Gu sha, only to see a calm look in his eyes and tightly pressed thin lips.
The two of them acted in unison, swiftly and silently approaching the group of students. As they drew closer, the ritual intensified. The students' voices gradually grew louder, and the air began to be filled with a strong surge of energy.
At this moment, Lin Xiaoxiao and Gu sha decisively took action. Gu sha's figure flickered like a ghost in the moonlight, his movements swift and precise as he subdued several students one after another. Meanwhile, Lin Xiaoxiao used her psychic abilities to create a powerful energy field, trapping the remaining students.
"Stop! What are you doing?" Lin Xiaoxiao questioned loudly.
The trapped students looked panicked and at a loss, gazing at each other, unsure of what to do. Finally, one of the students gathered the courage to respond, "We... we just wanted to conduct an experiment. We didn't expect it to turn out like this..."
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the students with a worried expression, "You must understand, the supernatural world is not a game. Every ritual can bring unforeseen consequences."
These students lowered their heads, and some of them began to realize the seriousness of their actions. After ensuring that these students no longer continued with the ritual, Gu sha and Lin Xiaoxiao safely removed them from the scene.
With the capture of these troublemakers, the school's turmoil also subsided. However, this incident also made Lin Xiaoxiao realize that the world she was in was far more complex and dangerous than she had imagined. She must work harder to learn and improve herself in order to survive in this unknown world.
Gu sha looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with admiration in his eyes. He deeply appreciated Lin Xiaoxiao's bravery in this operation and saw her immense potential. "Lin Xiaoxiao, you performed excellently," Gu sha said. "You not only have courage, but also strategic thinking. These are qualities that Underworld highly values."
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, but her eyes showed determination. "I still have a lot to learn. But no matter what, I won't give up."
Gu sha nodded, seeing the infinite potential in Lin Xiaoxiao. "Perhaps in the future, Underworld could consider having you join us," Gu sha said with a hint of seriousness.
Lin Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then smiled lightly. "That's certainly an interesting idea, but I still prefer my life of freedom."
Gu sha smiled gently, appreciating Lin Xiaoxiao's candidness and independence. "Regardless, if you need help, Underworld will always be your ally."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, feeling reassured. In this world full of unknowns, having a friend like Gu sha was her greatest support.
After that thrilling battle, Lin Xiaoxiao's state of mind seemed to have changed. She sat at the back of the classroom, holding a pen, but her thoughts were far away. She recalled the scene of battling the mysterious scholar's soul in the cellar, the unprecedented sense of power both shocking and perplexing her.
Gu sha said to her after the battle, "Your abilities exceed my imagination. This power... perhaps you can truly become a powerful ally of the Underworld."
This sentence is like a seed, deeply rooted in Lin Xiaoxiao's heart, fermenting day and night. She is no longer the ordinary student who only encounters trouble; her identity seems to have become more complex and mysterious.
At night, Lin Xiaoxiao is in the study at home, flipping through an ancient book about soul studies. Her eyes are focused and deep, trying to find the secret of her power from the book. The room is quiet, with only the ticking of the clock and the sound of her flipping through the book.
Her brows furrowed as she pondered Gu sha's words. She understood that to delve deeper into her own power, she needed more knowledge and experience. This power was not just for combating spirits, but also a process of self-exploration and understanding.
During an operation to resolve a spiritual disturbance, Lin Xiaoxiao demonstrated astonishing abilities. She faced a powerful group of spirits alone, successfully dispersing them and protecting the humans present.
Gu sha stood at a distance, watching Lin Xiaoxiao operate confidently and skillfully. A look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes: "Lin Xiaoxiao, you have exceeded my expectations."
Lin Xiaoxiao turned around and smiled at Gu sha: "This is all I should do."
Gu sha fell silent for a moment, then said, "Your abilities have reached a very high level. Perhaps you should consider joining the Underworld judicial system and becoming one of us."
Lin Xiaoxiao was slightly surprised, but she quickly composed herself and seriously considered the proposal.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Gu sha: "I will seriously consider this proposal. If I can contribute to maintaining peace between the two realms, then I am willing to do so."
Gu sha nodded, with admiration in his eyes: "Very good, I admire your determination and courage. If you decide to join, I will fully support you."
As the days passed, under the guidance of Gu Sha, Lin Xiaoxiao gradually became familiar with the rules and methods of the Underworld. She learned how to more effectively use her own power and also gained a lot of knowledge about the spirit world.
Gradually, Lin Xiaoxiao began to feel that her power had far exceeded her initial imagination. She transformed from an ordinary student into a figure of significant influence in both the Yin and Yang realms.
