However, when Ye Xuan rushed to Kayako's house, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Kayako's house was indeed very remote and could be said to be deserted, but it was definitely not this quiet. At least there were sounds of insects and the like.
Or rather, Ye Xuan was unprepared, because not only did he not hear any sound, he actually did not feel anything with his ability.
"Meow!"
Suddenly, a mournful cat's cry broke the silence. It was a black cat, skinny and bony, with golden brown eyes that were very clear in the night.
The black cat did not leave. It stared at Ye Xuan with its eyes wide open, as if it wanted to see through his soul.
Ye Xuan pretended not to see it. Whether this cat was a ghost or not, it could not get close to Ye Xuan. At most, it could call out a few times in the distance to make its presence known, but it could not do anything else.
Ye Xuan did not panic. He knocked on the door, and the cat was still looking at Ye Xuan not far away.
No one made a sound, and the door was also unlatched. When Ye Xuan knocked on the door, it naturally opened a gap.
The darkness in this gap was even thicker than the night outside.
The darkness inside was almost overflowing and devouring people's hearts.
Ye Xuan pushed the door open and entered. He found that the house was different from before.
Although it was dark, at least he could see some things with the help of the moonlight, as if the scene just now was just a momentary illusion.
The cat moved, following Ye Xuan's footsteps. As if it had a mind of its own, it turned into a shadow and followed Ye Xuan.
There was no change in Ye Xuan's expression. After experiencing so many worlds, he had encountered all kinds of demons and ghosts. Although he could not use True Essence or Spirit Weapons now, at the very least, he still had the most basic mentality.
What he needed to do was to change his own aura. If it could make ghosts retreat, then it was naturally an existence more terrifying than ghosts. This was not something that could be demonstrated with just a scary expression. At most, it would be a joke.
Experts were surrounded by a murderous aura. They were so terrifying that even ghosts and gods would not dare to approach them.
True experts were not as simple as killing intent, but they could freely control and release it. The cat following behind Ye Xuan was one such example. With the cat's ability, how could it follow Ye Xuan? This was simply impossible!
Even if Ye Xuan's abilities were mostly suppressed by this world, he was still a powerhouse who could travel between worlds! Therefore, Ye Xuan controlled his aura and let the cat follow him. At the same time, he released some warnings so that the terrifying cat could not get close to him!
It seemed that Kayako was actually a very delicate girl, but she was usually too self-abased.
In Japanese society, the spirit of Bushido always existed. The weak would not be recognized. Kayako, who had lost the recognition of society, was also eliminated by this society.
There was no one on the first floor, so he could only go to the second floor.
The stairs were indistinct, and the darkness at the bottom of the stairs reminded Ye Xuan of the time when he saw the door slit open.
"Kayako." He whispered to himself, and the cat behind him called out.
It was like a sacrifice, and this sacrifice began from here.
Ye Xuan's pupils constricted. A figure with long white hair appeared on the second floor.
He suddenly felt powerless. His previous guess seemed to have come true. That's right. Before he entered the door, Ye Xuan had already felt it. Not only did he not hear any sound, he also did not feel the presence of a person.
Right now, he could only pray that Kayako was not dead, and that this evil and filthy aura was hidden.
Ye Xuan took a step back, his face still expressionless.
Actually, he was a little worried. After all, the speculation that Kayako might be dead lingered in his heart. He suddenly wanted to call out Xueyi and ask, but he thought that Xueyi would most likely tell him that she was just an artificial intelligence.
There was no point. Right now, it was time to verify the truth or overturn the speculation.
Actually, Kayako was not that scary, right? Other than her inferiority complex, she was just a girl who liked an outstanding person like Kobayashi Junsuke.
Which girl wouldn't like such an outstanding and handsome boy? She didn't do anything that was against reason and nature.
She only silently liked Kobayashi Junsuke.
If it wasn't for Ye Xuan, she would not have received Kobayashi Junsuke's care.
Because of this, receiving this little bit of care made her feel that Kobayashi Junsuke, or Ye Xuan, might like her.
Therefore, her entire life would be affected by Ye Xuan's words and actions.
Kayako was not a stupid girl, but she liked Kobayashi Junsuke, so she became very, very stupid.
"Kayako," he called out again. The cat called out again behind him.
There was suddenly gravity on his feet. A cold chill climbed up his feet. Without looking down, Ye Xuan knew that it was a hand.
And even if the owner of this hand was not her, she was probably the one causing trouble.
"Meow!" The cat's mournful cry pierced through the sky!
The darkness of the night was frightening!
The hand and the black cat were both shaken away!
Ye Xuan slowly closed his eyes, as if reminiscing about something.
He had said that he was also human, and this situation proved that Kayako was already dead. Perhaps Ye Xuan did not like Kayako, but she was also someone that Ye Xuan had decided to save.
How could a man, a man, allow the woman he had decided to protect to die!
This was a violation of a man's dignity and bottom line!
Ye Xuan suddenly opened his eyes. The light in his eyes seemed to be able to pierce through the darkness!
In fact, he had done it!
Anger lit up his eyes. From this moment onwards, this man! The entire world was about to burn for him!
The Kayako that Ye Xuan had protected was already dead. Then, he would not let go of the demons and demons that had devoured Kayako!
"Suppress evil and destroy evil, as urgent as the law, order!" A talisman suddenly appeared in his hand. It ignited without any fire, illuminating the surroundings.
"Meow!" The mournful cry of a cat rang out, and the surrounding Yin Qi seemed to recede in an instant.
The sound came from the second floor. It seemed that the cat had escaped upstairs.
He had to go up, and he had the greatest hope that Kayako was still alive.
There was no moonlight in the entire room, or rather, the moonlight could not enter. The windows were clearly open, and it was a full moon. But no matter what, only the light from the talisman in Ye Xuan's hand illuminated the surrounding space.
It was enough. Ye Xuan took steady steps up each staircase.
The cat's cry was indistinct, and it sounded very far away. And the staircase was so deep in the darkness that he could not see ahead, and it seemed endless.
Ordinary people would probably go crazy from the torture, right? Ye Xuan thought.
I am alone, or rather, I can only explore this darkness by myself. This kind of feeling can make people feel despair. Regardless of whether Kayako was dead or not, it was probably because of Kayako's heart.
All things were born from the heart.
"Kayako." Ye Xuan was still calling Kayako's name softly.
It was as if he had just met Kayako on a bright morning, and said to her, "Good morning, Kayako!"
The house was still dark, and there was no reply …
There was no need to say more. Ye Xuan looked at the hazy white figure that flashed by at the end of the deep darkness, and gradually had an answer in his heart.
The tragedy was irreversible …
