Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 686 - 109: Wang Yunxiao Never Beats Around the Bush

When mentioning the female ghost, Wang Yunxiao did not look up to observe Li Mumu’s reaction.

A person’s facial expression can be fake, but physical reactions cannot be faked.

"Female ghost? Is she pretty?"

Li Mumu did indeed experience a moment of accelerated heartbeat, but her reaction left Wang Yunxiao unable to determine if she was genuinely feeling guilty, or if she had some special thoughts about the female ghost.

"Aren’t you afraid of ghosts?"

"I’m scared, but it’s not like I’ve never seen one before."

Li Mumu spread her hands: "You also know the two little girls around me, I didn’t even know they had the ability to draw ghosts, the last time I was nearly scared to death by them. After getting used to them gradually, I became unafraid. Like that child who looks exactly like Zhou Qing, hanging herself every night at the bathroom door, swinging back and forth..."

Hmm, the reasoning is solid and convincing.

"I didn’t see what the female ghost looked like, I just heard people say that after the people of King Mu’s Mansion took away the Imperial Jade Seal, they encountered a female ghost blocking the road outside, a great fight ensued, and in the end, nobody knows if the Jade Seal was stolen or not."

"King Mu’s Mansion?"

Li Mumu’s face was full of surprise: "Even the people from King Mu’s Mansion went? The Shen Family sure put on quite a show."

Then she realized Wang Yunxiao was looking at her with a peculiar expression.

What’s wrong? Did I say something incorrect?

Li Mumu felt somewhat guilty for a moment.

"Aren’t you from the Mu Family?"

"Why would I be from the Mu Family?"

"Isn’t your dad named Mu Yuming? Isn’t he part of the Mu Family’s Jade Generation?"

"Distant relatives who can’t even be reached with a pole; even though we’re part of the Jade Generation, that doesn’t make us one family. Do you expect me to call that little guy from the lower grades, Mu Yusheng, ’auntie’?"

If that’s what you’re saying, then indeed, there’s no problem. Having the last name Mu and belonging to the Jade Generation doesn’t necessarily mean one is a bona fide member of the Mu Family. Mu Yusha and Mu Yusheng are the typical examples - they aren’t relatives, they’re just names on the family registry under the patronage of King Mu’s Mansion.

But I saw with my own eyes your dad coming out from King Mu’s Mansion.

"Really? But I think that uncle who came from King Mu’s Mansion looks quite like your dad."

Bullshit! They don’t look alike at all!

It’s said that the local environment nurtures the locals; Mu Yuming was born and raised on the West Coast of the Federation, and his living environment and diet structurally are utterly different from those in the country. Unless you put the two people side by side for comparison, you can’t see any resemblance.

At least, that’s what Li Mumu thought.

But that uncle from the Mu Family also had thievish eyes, he could tell at a glance that she looked like her own dad; Li Mumu didn’t know if he was overly confident or had some inexplicable sense of blood-related intuition.

It can’t be that he cultivates the Righteous Path like Advisor Qiao Hongyi who also likes to play the cold reading tricks of the relevant department bigshots, right?

But now that Wang Yunxiao also said it, Li Mumu’s initial reaction was that he probably hadn’t been at the scene.

Or perhaps, there really was some resemblance she hadn’t noticed.

"In any case, my last name is Li, neither I, nor my parents, have any interest in clinging to those relatives."

Although Li Mumu wouldn’t admit it, Wang Yunxiao thought otherwise.

Does Boss Mu really not care about his own surname? He doesn’t mind that his daughter bears her mother’s last name?

Foreigners’ last names are inverted, and when you flip Li Mumu’s name, it sounds like Mu.

"I heard people say that the female ghost had three heads and six arms with a lotus Dharma Body, holding Huntian Silk, and riding on Wind and Fire Wheels, looking like Nezha."

You’re the one who resembles Nezha! Your whole family resembles Nezha!

Although Li Mumu thought so herself, hearing such words from others still gave her a strong sense of social death.

"If she looks like Nezha, how can you say she’s a female ghost?"

"Because all six of her eyes are on one face."

F*ck, she’s ugly enough to carve out a two-bedroom apartment with her toes.

"Ew! How disgusting..."

Li Mumu couldn’t help but purse her lips: "That must be mutated, right?"

"Who knows? There are also other messy things, like huge trucks that look like people or something, it gives me the creeps just hearing about it."

As Wang Yunxiao spoke, he shifted his gaze to the red string on Li Mumu’s wrist.

It’s pretty normal for girls to wear red strings or multicolored cords on their wrists.

Even if there’s a doll with button eyes tied to it, it’s nothing out of the ordinary.

Girls like to hang all sorts of strange and quirky things on their bracelets and keychains.

"I remember you have a sister, right? Is her name... Wendy?"

Wang Yunxiao tentatively asked: "Hasn’t she come to school?"

"Not all girls like school and studying."

Li Mumu shrugged: "The principal actually encouraged her to come to school with me, but she’s a bit introverted and not good at socializing. So she chose to self-study at home."

"Oh, no wonder..."

"Can you let go of my hand first?"

"Don’t rush, let me tell you your fortune through palmistry."

Seeing that Wang Yunxiao was holding onto her wrist and not letting go, Li Mumu started to feel annoyed.

What do you think you’re doing? Do you think you can just touch Eldest Miss Li’s hand as you please?

"Ouch..."

"Does your wrist hurt? Are you sure it’s really tendonitis, or did you do some vigorous exercise that twisted your wrist?"

Though Wang Yunxiao was asking with apparent concern, he wouldn’t let go of her hand.

He wanted to see if Li Mumu would be pressured into revealing her true form.

While it’s true that Eldest Miss Li isn’t afraid of sunlight, that doesn’t mean she’s without issues.

Only evil spirits catalyzed by the Outer Dimension fear sunlight.

Genuine cultivators, whether they practice the modern Twelve Laws or the traditional Taoism of gods, demons, and Buddha, aren’t afraid of light.

Something’s off with this guy!

Li Mumu was about to lose her temper, but suddenly a thought flashed through her mind. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Is he testing me?

Thinking back on his words... it seems like there was an implication behind them.

Was my transformation seen through?

Li Mumu hadn’t deliberately covered her face when she went out to roam.

Mainly because her normal appearance and the Red Shroud were too different, and ordinary people wouldn’t connect the two.

It’s not as simple as changing a new skin; her shroud carries an eerie aura that generally only invokes fear from people, except for those rare utmost perverts. Who else would care what a female ghost looks like?

And when she fought in close combat with others, she usually invoked her Dharma Body, that thing with three pairs of eyes on one face, as Wang Yunxiao mentioned.

You’d be seeing things if you could make out her face clearly.

And ever since Shen Qingxi took over the Longevity Sect, every time they went out, Li Mumu had to stick a talisman paper on her face... not because she was afraid of being recognized, but because she couldn’t afford to lose face that way.

As for whether someone would connect the Red Shroud with Li Mumu herself.

So what if they make the connection? Do you really think Li Mumu is weak?

If it comes to that, just kill and silence them.

This thought is now roving around in Li Mumu’s mind.

Wang Yunxiao, my fellow classmate, you suspect a bit too much.
