Chapter 136 The Troublesome Demon
The spacious hall was eerily quiet, with only the chubby security guard making smacking noises as he chewed his food.
Li Yuan looked at the security guard in front of him and suddenly chuckled.
He glanced at the magnetic card on the table, raised an eyebrow, and asked:
"Is your melon guaranteed to be ripe?"
The security guard was taken aback at first, but when he followed Li Yuan's gaze to the magnetic card on the table,
Realized it instantly
He hurriedly leaned forward and grabbed the magnetic card on the table.
Li Yuan almost burst out laughing at his clumsy movements.
He instantly reached out his left hand and pressed it down on his round, hairless head.
Immediately afterwards, he slammed his fist down on the table!
With a muffled thud,
The security guard's body slowly went limp and he lay down on the ground.
Li Yuan reached out and took the magnetic card.
Looking at the unconscious security guard on the ground, he chuckled and made a sarcastic remark:
"It doesn't look ripe."
Li Yuan took the magnetic card and ran quickly towards the elevator.
After swiping the card, I pressed the button for the 42nd floor.
Looking at the gradually rising floors, Li Yuan muttered helplessly to himself:
"I don't even know if she's still alive. Am I supposed to smash down the security door when we get to the front door?"
Although Li Yuan's face showed some impatience
But he knew in his heart that if it didn't deviate from the original plot...
He had to deal with this curse.
Skye's curse was spread visually by a demon that feeds on human negative emotions.
Anyone who has witnessed a person carrying a curse commit suicide
Then he will be marked by this demon.
Within seven days, the demon will take his soul.
Skye Riley, who is now being cursed, is a famous singer.
A few days later will be her first stop on her tour, which will be broadcast live across the United States.
If she were to livestream her suicide at a concert
Countless viewers will witness it in person.
They would then be marked by the demon, with unimaginable consequences.
In Li Yuan's view, how many people die is none of his business.
But once the curse spreads, it will be beyond Li Yuan's control.
The demon will grow stronger and stronger.
If it really comes to that, it'll probably be no different from the end of the world.
While Li Yuan was lost in thought, the elevator finally arrived at the 42nd floor.
Li Yuan quickly stepped out of the elevator and knocked on Skye's door.
*Knock knock knock!*
Skye! Are you there?
Li Yuan called out Skye's name loudly.
At the same time, he pressed his ear against the door, trying to hear the sounds inside.
The next second, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the room!
Immediately afterwards, with a loud bang, the Skye family's door was suddenly pulled open.
A woman with short blond hair and a deathly pale face
The moment I saw Li Yuan,
Startled, he trembled all over and fell straight to the ground.
Just as Li Yuan was about to reach out to help her up, the woman suddenly got up from the ground.
He turned around in terror to look behind him, his eyes filled with fear.
Upon seeing this, Li Yuan immediately activated [Sensing Evil Creatures] and followed her gaze.
But there was nothing unusual about the house.
Li Yuan blinked and called out softly:
"Miss Skye?"
Skye ignored him and silently picked up the decorative lamp from the table.
They cautiously walked into the house.
Seeing this, Li Yuan quickly followed.
Yet, there were still no evil creatures in the luxurious and spacious house.
Skye looked somewhat taken aback as she slowly lowered the lamp.
Then, turning to Li Yuan with a weary expression, she whispered:
"Gemma, I'm so glad you came to keep me company. Things have been awful lately..."
"Jemma?"
Li Yuan looked at Skye with a puzzled expression, then waved his hand in front of her.
Seeing that he didn't react, Li Yuan muttered in a low voice:
"Is she already hallucinating?"
Skye didn't pay attention to Li Yuan's words.
Instead, she continued to tell her best friend Gemma about her ordeal.
A year ago, she was involved in a serious car accident.
That car accident not only took her boyfriend's life,
She herself also suffered a serious back injury.
In order to perform normally on stage without being troubled by back injury,
She could only secretly take addictive painkillers to relieve the pain.
Just a few days ago, she accidentally lost the last few painkillers she had kept as a spare.
Left with no other option, she contacted her high school classmate Louis, who sold contraband.
But when she arrived at the Louise's house,
However, they discovered that Louis's mental state was very poor and his behavior was strange.
Skye initially thought that Louis had become like this because he had taken too many drugs.
But what happened next terrified her.
Louis, with a smile on his face, picked up a barbell plate and slapped it hard against his own face right in front of her!
When he stopped breathing, a strange smile remained on his bloodied and mangled face.
As Skye squatted on the ground recounting all of this,
Li Yuan stood aside and silently observed her.
Skye's expression was strange; she kept switching between crying and laughing.
It felt as if someone were actually sitting in front of her, chatting with her.
Just as Li Yuan frowned, pondering how to rescue her,
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
*Knock knock knock!*
"Miss Riley! Are you in there, Miss Riley?"
Li Yuan heard that familiar voice.
They knew it was the security guard who had woken up and caught up with them.
He sighed and placed his hand on Skye's forehead:
"Let's try anything, even if it's a long shot."
Li Yuan's eyes flashed with golden light, and he instantly activated the [Cleansing Technique].
A faint holy light appeared in his hand, but vanished in an instant!
[Ding! Cleansing spell failed to cast; current skill level is insufficient to remove the curse from the target.]
"Damn it, I knew it."
Li Yuan cursed under his breath, then said with a hint of helplessness:
"Then let's try this; at least it'll help you break free from this illusion!"
The moment he finished speaking, a blue light shone in Li Yuan's eyes.
In an instant, the effect of the [Spiritual Blessing] was bestowed upon Skye.
The +3 to mental attribute caused Skye's eyes to widen slightly in surprise.
When she saw the figure in front of her clearly, she screamed in astonishment:
"Who are you! What do you want! Don't hurt me!"
Seeing Skye's frantic state, Li Yuan quickly covered her mouth.
He said in a low voice:
"I'm Li Yuan! Have you forgotten? You were the one who called me for help!"
Skye's eyes widened slightly after hearing Li Yuan's words.
She seemed to be processing the man's words.
Seeing that Skye's emotions seemed to have stabilized somewhat, Li Yuan...
He quickly continued to explain:
"Did Scarlett give you my phone number?"
Upon hearing this, Skye finally remembered the incident.
She quickly reached out and patted Li Yuan's arm.
He nodded to indicate that he remembered.
Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and slowly removed his hand.
He looked at the Skye family's door and said to her:
"The apartment security guards are outside. I had to use some methods to get up here because I couldn't contact you."
Skye, somewhat embarrassed, said:
"I'm sorry, I... I don't know what happened to me just now."
Li Yuan shook his head, took out the magnetic card, and handed it to Skye, saying:
"It's alright, you can go and deal with the security guard first."
Skye nodded quickly and said softly:
"Okay, leave it to me."
She stood up, took a deep breath to calm herself down.
He then slowly walked to the entrance and opened the door that had been knocking loudly.
Skye stared displeasedly at the security guards in front of her.
He asked in an icy tone:
"What are you all arguing about! Is there something wrong?"
The security guard saw Skye come out of the door, seemingly unharmed.
He quickly asked in a respectful tone:
"You haven't been threatened, have you? A thief just stole your key card and broke into your house!"
Skye rolled her eyes and casually tossed the magnetic card back to the security guard.
She shouted in a loud voice:
"That's my security assistant! Didn't I tell you he was coming today?"
The security guard caught the magnetic card and listened blankly to Skye's roar.
"Is this how you serve your homeowners? You dare to stop my people?"
Despite being filled with doubt, she sensed Skye's anger.
The security guards quickly apologized in hushed tones and hurriedly left.
Skye watched the security guard's disheveled figure as he left.
He gave a soft hum and went back inside.
She looked at Li Yuan and said with a smile:
"nailed it!"
