Chapter 1708: Chapter 1531: The Antique Has a Spirit 11
Li Yi had reached the point where she had to wear the blue garment costume wherever she went; she wore it close to her skin, not daring to take it off even in the sweltering summer.
Because she never knew when she might need to perform a segment due to various reasons.
Gradually, Li Yi completely forgot about the fear that the blue garment costume once brought her. She became obsessed with performing opera, unable to extricate herself. However, as long as the blue garment costume was absent, she wouldn’t even dare to speak.
Until one day, Li Yi encountered a so-called master. On one of the rare days off she had, Li Yi planned to go out and take a stroll, and then she met a man wearing a robe.
After intercepting Li Yi, the man merely circled her once, confidently saying, "Young lady, there’s a demonic aura on you; you’ve been entangled by a powerful demon."
In the past, if Li Yi met someone like this, her first reaction would be to think she had encountered a swindler. But now, Li Yi’s first reaction was anxiety.
She feared the man might discover the problem with the blue garment costume she was wearing, so she quickly called him a lunatic and hurriedly ran away, hiding in her room at home, clutching the costume tightly.
Li Yi didn’t know what problem the blue garment costume had, but she was sure that even if it was a monster, it wouldn’t harm her.
Because she had worn it for so long and had only reaped benefits without any harm occurring—no feeling of physical fatigue, no discomfort whatsoever. On the contrary, her health was excellent.
More importantly, Li Yi couldn’t live without this blue garment costume now. Without it, the glory she currently possessed and her beloved opera would all be lost, which Li Yi couldn’t accept.
Yet sometimes, what one fears just happens—Li Yi didn’t expect to encounter the man again so soon. He appeared in her master’s home, seeming to be quite esteemed by her master.
Li Yi’s master was a renowned national opera artist. Watching the man conversing happily with her master, Li Yi felt her blood run cold.
She stood stiffly in place, listening to her master introduce how formidable the master was. Li Yi could only force a rigid smile and greet him.
The master sized up Li Yi, smiling warmly as he said to her master, "Speaking of which, I’ve met your apprentice before. Back then, I noticed she was entangled with a demon, but she seemed to think I was a charlatan."
Although he smiled warmly, Li Yi felt there was something sinister behind it. Sure enough, her master immediately spoke next, "Is this true? Then we must take it seriously!
Little Yi, don’t take the master’s words lightly. The master is genuinely skilled; you should let him take a look. Being tangled with something dirty is no trivial matter."
Li Yi rejected stiffly, "No need, Master. I don’t feel anything unusual in my life, and I don’t believe in such things. Master, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first."
Afterward, Li Yi left her master’s home nearly at a running pace, feeling uneasy due to the master’s significant final gaze, which left her feeling as if she were sitting on pins and needles.
To avoid encountering the master, Li Yi almost canceled all outside engagements and performances, staying home and avoiding leaving.
Yet within two days, Li Yi was horrified one night to find the master suddenly appearing in her room.
His expression remained harmless, and facing Li Yi’s panicked fear, he even assumed a very gentlemanly demeanor, smiling as if to soothe her.
"Miss Li, don’t look at me with such a frightened expression. I know you understand I’m not a charlatan; I have to take that costume away today."
Li Yi clutched the blue garment costume with one hand while frantically grabbing her phone with the other, her hand trembling as she pressed the screen. "You’re trespassing private property, I’m calling the police!"
The master allowed Li Yi to make the call, calmly sitting on the chair opposite her, chuckling lightly, "This house has been isolated from the outside by my spell; calling the police would be useless.
Moreover, I’m from the special security department; even if you do call the police, they can’t do anything to me.
After speaking, the master casually reached out to grasp the blue garment costume that Li Yi held in her arms, with green light gleaming in his palm.
Li Yi desperately discovered that her emergency call indeed couldn’t get through; her phone was filled with busy signals.
Seeing the master’s hand about to grasp the blue garment costume from her arms, Li Yi screamed in fear and retreated several steps, fiercely hugging the blue garment costume.
At the same time, the blue garment costume glowed faintly in her embrace, and a palm-sized little figure dressed in similar opera attire appeared before her, puffing its cheeks and angrily glaring at the master.
"You’re no master; I’m a good demon and have never harmed anyone. According to the monster laws of the Mortal World, I’ve done nothing wrong, and you have no right to capture me!"
The master raised an eyebrow: smirking coldly, "Your skills as a little demon aren’t great, but you know quite a bit. But simply saying you’re innocent doesn’t make you so, does it? I’m still going to take you back for further investigation, so stop resisting, and come with me obediently."
Green light from the master’s hand transformed into streams of green Light Sabers, shooting towards the girl transformed from the blue garment costume.
The girl transformed from the blue garment costume furrowed her brows, golden light rising from her hands, forming a shield-like shape to block the master’s attacks.
But unfortunately, her form was only a garment, not fully transformed; her combat power was very weak—her shield was shattered by the master’s green Light Sabers almost instantly.
In the next moment, the gigantic green Light Saber for her form turned into a long green rope, firmly binding the girl transformed from the blue garment costume.
The master saw he had captured the girl from the blue garment costume, smiling with satisfaction; the soul body of this little demon was very pure, just right to be refined into an Artifact Spirit.
The master beckoned, preparing to pull the girl from the blue garment costume along with her original form over to him. At that moment, a red light flashed, and the green rope in the master’s hand suddenly dissolved into scattered light spots all over the ground.
The master frowned, annoyed as he turned back to question, "Who dares to disrupt my plans!"
As he spoke, he felt immense pressure like Mount Tai descending upon him, instantly pressing him to the ground and causing him to spray a mouthful of blood.
The master struggled on the ground, trying to get up, but the weight on his back felt like a mountain, making it impossible to rise no matter how he twisted. Then, a pair of leather boots appeared before him.
The master struggled to look up, seeing a slender waist with double buckles and an exquisite silver chain swaying brightly as its owner moved.
