The three groups had arrived with relaxed expressions, but as they left, apart from Si Junfang who remained indifferent, the others wore a hint of solemnity. It was clear they were all contemplating their specific plans after the public revelation of the supernatural.
In this regard, Yu Zhibo did not dare to relax in the slightest. He himself possessed Lightning Release, which countered all malevolent spirits, making him unafraid of any opponents of the same tier, or even D-tier ghosts and monsters.
However, he was worried about his family.
No matter how carefree he usually was, after reviewing the information, he knew that ghosts grew by consuming various emotions.
It was easy to imagine the panic that would grip the world when the supernatural was revealed to the public, and the true nature of this world was laid bare before ordinary people.
After all, too many people in this world feared ghosts. For instance, there was a female classmate in Yu Zhibo's class who dared not go out after dark and insisted he escort her, and who would call him when using the restroom at night just to feel less scared.
This was merely a hypothetical scenario. When illusions became reality, the truth was something many could not bear.
At that time, countless legendary ghosts would appear one after another, their various curses and methods emerging endlessly, making them impossible to guard against. As ordinary parents, they could easily fall victim by accident.
The talismans needed to be delivered to his parents and younger sister as soon as possible! Yu Zhibo thought, and once again used Shadow Clone.
Having just eaten spirit meat and wearing a spirit-gathering pendant, his spiritual energy had already been fully replenished.
Thus, as he formed hand seals, soon, with a bang, a clone to which he had allocated three hundred points of spiritual energy appeared beside him.
Buzz cut, t-shirt, mid-length pants, sneakers, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes – it was Yu Zhibo's original appearance.
"What kind of clone are you?"
"I am the serious clone!" the clone said with a stern expression.
Infected by his expression, Yu Zhibo couldn't help but straighten his face. He had the black cat take out the talismans he had bought for his parents from the space, handed them to the clone, and instructed, "You need to deliver these to Mom and Dad immediately. Make sure you see them wearing the talismans with your own eyes."
"Understood!" The clone nodded solemnly, took the items, and turned to leave quickly.
As for his sister, she was staying in the spirit array house and was not in danger for the time being. He would deliver them personally later!
Thinking this, Yu Zhibo gave Mo Yu a few low-grade dried spirit fish and then began to clean up the mess on the dining table.
As he was cleaning, he suddenly stiffened, and then his whole body began to convulse.
It was feedback from the clone.
Ten seconds later, he murmured with a complex expression, "Another unnatural death."
Then, he closed his eyes to digest the information brought by the steady clone.
"Teemo? Interesting."
"Fifteen meters tall when adult, extremely fast, can turn invisible. I just don't know about its defense."
"Where in this dark world is this from? Why can Teemo regain its sanity after absorbing light spirit energy?"
"Such a simple little fellow. The clone did a good job."
"From today onwards, your innocence will be protected by me!"
The clone's personality was inherited from him, and he naturally possessed all of the clone's emotions, thus he also felt a fondness for the newly contracted spirit beast.
"First, I need to summon the scroll back!"
Yu Zhibo bit his finger, formed a hand seal, and slapped his palm onto the ground.
Bang!
Instantly, dense runes spread outwards, and the spirit scroll, stained with a black, eerie aura, appeared in the middle of the living room.
Yu Zhibo had anticipated this. Lightning flashed from his hands, enveloping the scroll and refining all the aura. After confirming it was clean, he had Mo Yu eat it into the space.
Then, he formed hand seals again.
In the Eternal Night World.
It was still a world of dense darkness.
The unknown dark cub that had signed the spirit scroll with Yu Zhibo was stunned when it found the scroll in its arms missing. Before it could react, it soon felt a familiar summoning intent enter its mind.
That intent carried a sense of familiarity, making it feel incredibly close.
So, it instinctively chose to accept.
Bang!
Its small body turned into smoke and disappeared from its original spot.
At the same time, in the real world, in the living room.
A small, furry, black humanoid beast with short limbs appeared within the rune circle. It had a toad-like mouth, bear-like ears, a monkey-like nose, and a small horn on its head. It looked adorably ugly.
It first looked around in confusion. Upon seeing Yu Zhibo, its eyes lit up.
"Giegie?"
Because Yu Zhibo had not transformed into Kakashi at this moment, the dark cub did not pounce immediately. However, it sensed a familiar aura from Yu Zhibo, making it hesitate for a moment.
"Meow~ ( ̄皿 ̄///)"
Seeing such a dark, dangerous creature suddenly appear in the living room, Mo Yu, who was eating dried fish, immediately bristled, crouching into an attack stance.
"Don't be afraid, Mo Yu. This is one of us," Yu Zhibo said, stroking Mo Yu to calm it down. Then, he turned to look at the dark cub.
Afterward, he formed a hand seal and transformed into Kakashi's appearance.
"Giegie~ (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧" The dark cub's eyes lit up, and it pounced towards Yu Zhibo.
"Haha!" Yu Zhibo laughed heartily, stroking the dark cub's head and saying, "From now on, you'll be my spirit beast. Because you can drop black balls anywhere, I'll call you Teemo!"
"Giegie?" The dark cub looked at him confusedly, clearly not understanding Chinese.
"You, Teemo!" Yu Zhibo pointed at it and then said the word "Teemo."
After trying several times, Teemo finally understood Yu Zhibo's meaning. Its mouth widened, it looked very happy, and it kept rubbing its face against Yu Zhibo's knees.
"Meow~ ( ̄皿 ̄///)" Mo Yu looked very unhappy, jumped onto Yu Zhibo's back, and hugged his neck with its front legs.
So, Yu Zhibo turned his head and rubbed his back against Mo Yu.
Then he lowered his head to look at his pants, which were smeared with black mud by Teemo. After a moment of silence, he directly picked up the furry Teemo and walked towards the bathroom.
After washing Teemo once, the entire bathtub water turned black. Yu Zhibo changed the water three times before he finally managed to wash Teemo clean.
Teemo, soaked through, instantly changed from a chubby Teemo to a thin Teemo.
Yu Zhibo carried it back to the living room.
Apart from being a little scared at first, Teemo seemed to enjoy playing in the water, and its expression was very reluctant when it was carried away.
"Hah, just kidding!"
Yu Zhibo looked at the standing Teemo, the corners of his mouth curling up. Mo Yu was hanging around his neck as he walked towards the bedroom. Little Teemo hurriedly followed, leaving a trail of water marks on the ground.
Soon, Yu Zhibo carried it back from the bedroom and plugged the hairdryer into the socket, starting to blow-dry its fur.
"Giegie!"
Teemo let out a happy cry, its eyes narrowing comfortably.
After drying Teemo's fur and looking at the clean, soft little Teemo, Yu Zhibo finally nodded in satisfaction.
"Come on, Teemo, use your ability!" Yu Zhibo stood up, crossed his arms, and looked at Teemo expectantly.
"Giegie?" Teemo looked at him confusedly and walked over to hug his leg.
Remembering that Teemo didn't understand Chinese, Yu Zhibo pondered for a moment, took the black cat from his neck, and held it in his hands.
Then, he made a gagging motion and placed Mo Yu on the ground, pretending it was a black ball.
Mo Yu: o( ̄皿 ̄///)
Mo Yu, who had been enjoying being held in Yu Zhibo's hands, immediately bristled, darted away, jumped behind him, and re-hung itself around his neck.
Teemo finally understood Yu Zhibo's intention. It opened its mouth, and a black ball, larger than its head, emerged from its mouth and grew larger as it fell to the ground.
Since learning the Body Replacement Jutsu, Yu Zhibo had, on many lonely nights, thought about using the Body Replacement Jutsu to swap positions with a bomb to surprise enemies in battle. However, it was clear that bombs were technological products and could not be replaced.
What about the black balls?
Yu Zhibo couldn't help but recall Itachi Uchiha using his summoning crows as replacements.
"If Itachi-sama can do it, why can't I, Yu Zhibo?"
The black balls should also be considered part of the spirit beast, as they were expelled from its body.
Thinking this, he moved his mind, circulated his spiritual energy, and successfully marked the black ball with the Body Replacement imprint. At the same time, he could feel that the effective distance for swapping positions with the black ball was within thirty meters.
Seeing the successful marking, Yu Zhibo's heart rejoiced.
Then, he walked from the center of the living room to the door and, with a thought, used the Body Replacement Jutsu.
The next moment.
Bang!
His body successfully swapped positions with the black ball.
Various ingenious ideas flashed through his mind, and Yu Zhibo's lips curved into a Nike smile of a dragon king.
