Bai Shuanglian was truly a bit shocked.
She felt that the absurd things she had seen in Xin Hai these past few days were more than all she had seen in her entire life.
Not to mention demons or anything, just the matter before her was already absurd enough.
Maybe she was just ignorant, but this was the first time she’d ever heard of a Pen Fairy willing to become good friends with a human.
And what was the deal with the Pen Fairy being called ‘Big Sister’?
From the looks of it, these two probably only met for the first or second time, right?
And they were already using ‘Big Sister’ as a title?
Things progressed this quickly?
Or could it be that the Pen Fairy in front of her had been pretending all along, and had actually used magic to charm this girl?
While Bai Shuanglian was deep in thought, she heard Li Yarou’s excited voice:
“Yes, yes, although I was really scared when Pen Fairy Big Sister first appeared, I later realized she was a good person… no, a good ghost!”
As she spoke, Li Yarou’s expression became more tense, looking at Bai Shuanglian pleadingly.
“So Sword Immortal Big Sister, can you please not hurt Pen Fairy Big Sister? She’s really a good ghost!”
Bai Shuanglian sensed Li Yarou’s presence—just as before, she didn’t feel any trace of magic influence.
Moreover, the girl spoke clearly and coherently, not like someone who’d been charmed by magic and turned sluggish.
So it was really just her own misunderstanding.
Thinking this, Bai Shuanglian looked at Li Yarou, who was gazing at her with a pleading face, then glanced at Ling Xiaoyou, who was watching her like a cautious little rabbit.
She nodded.
“In that case, it seems I wrongly accused you. Then I’ll…”
Before Bai Shuanglian could finish her sentence, she suddenly stopped, her gaze fixed on the tightly closed door.
?
Why did she suddenly stop talking?
Ling Xiaoyou was puzzled, and also looked in the same direction as Bai Shuanglian.
But no matter how she looked, it was just an ordinary Wooden Door.
Just as she was feeling confused, she suddenly heard the sound of two footsteps approaching from far to near, along with the voices of two people that sounded vaguely familiar to Ling Xiaoyou.
“Hey, do you really think Big Sis came here?”
“Of course. With Big Sis’s personality, she would definitely come here to prove everything to us!”
“That’s true. Big Sis is so stubborn. She’d definitely come here tonight. Maybe she’s already starting the summoning.”
Hearing the somewhat familiar voices, Ling Xiaoyou immediately realized—they were the other two girls from yesterday.
Thinking this, she glanced at Li Yarou, who had also heard the conversation.
She saw that Li Yarou’s expression had frozen because of the two’s words.
But it was actually good that these two came.
Now she’d have more witnesses to prove she was a good Pen Fairy.
Just as Ling Xiaoyou thought this, she heard the two continue:
“By the way, did you really believe what you said this morning about Pen Fairy not existing in this world?”
“Of course not. How could three people have the same dream at the same time? That’s impossible just thinking about it!”
“Then this morning you…”
“Sigh, that was just to help Big Sis deal with her parents. Weren’t you the same?”
“True. Even though the Pen Fairy did those things to us before, seeing how much Big Sis likes the Pen Fairy, I thought I’d help her out too.”
“Yeah, same here. Say, we’re all girls—why would the Pen Fairy do that kind of thing to us?”
“Who knows, maybe the Pen Fairy is the yuri type from the rumors?”
“Whoa, that’s possible. Just thinking about it is exciting! I like it!”
No, what weird things are you two talking about?!
What kind of ‘that kind of thing’ are you referring to? All I did was make you three sleep together!
Why does it sound like I’m some perverted yuri-obsessed Pen Fairy?
I’m not that kind of ghost!
Ling Xiaoyou screamed internally at their words, completely oblivious to Li Yarou beside her muttering, ‘You two… So that’s how it was. I misjudged you…’
Bai Shuanglian quietly listened to the two girls’ conversation outside, feeling like she had discovered the truth of the matter.
She looked at Ling Xiaoyou’s delicate and lovely face—it really didn’t look like the kind of ghost who’d do bad things.
As an Exorcist, Bai Shuanglian could see Ling Xiaoyou’s true appearance, even if she tried to hide it.
They say the face reflects the heart. Usually, a ghost’s nature would show in their appearance—like shifty eyes or a fierce expression.
Bai Shuanglian had seen such ghosts before—they were easy to recognize.
But Ling Xiaoyou didn’t give her that feeling. Instead, she seemed weak and easy to bully.
That was one reason why Bai Shuanglian felt she had wrongly accused this little Pen Fairy.
However, after hearing the previous conversation, Bai Shuanglian now felt she might need to put a question mark on her judgment.
Doing ‘that kind of thing’ to high school girls—while it might not be an evil crime, it didn’t make her a good ghost either.
Let’s just say she did something bad, but it was a strange kind of bad!
Ling Xiaoyou, unaware of Bai Shuanglian’s wild thoughts, was full of complaints inside.
Forget it, I’ll just explain to Bai Shuanglian first.
Ling Xiaoyou was exasperated by the two’s conversation, so she decided to ignore them, turning to Bai Shuanglian to continue her explanation—only to see Bai Shuanglian looking at her with a strange expression.
It was the kind of look an older sister might give a girl she’d targeted.
Ling Xiaoyou: Eh?
“You…really did that kind of thing to minors?”
Bai Shuanglian was silent for a moment before finally asking the embarrassing question.
“Eh?”
Ling Xiaoyou froze, then quickly understood.
Bai Shuanglian had misunderstood because of the conversation she overheard.
She shook her little head urgently.
“I really didn’t do that kind of thing, or rather, I don’t even know what ‘that kind of thing’ is!”
“Oh~”
Bai Shuanglian responded, but from her tone and unchanging expression, she clearly didn’t believe a word Ling Xiaoyou said.
Seeing this, Ling Xiaoyou panicked.
This was a matter of her reputation!
If word got out, how could she continue being a ghost?
Maybe it was because she was too desperate to explain, or maybe something in her brain snapped, but Ling Xiaoyou looked at Bai Shuanglian’s beautiful face and, on a ghostly impulse, blurted out:
“No matter how you think about it, I wouldn’t go after minors. If I really wanted to do that kind of thing, I’d definitely choose a beautiful girl like you, Bai Shuanglian!”
In an instant, the entire room fell silent.
