Lin Bai cautiously and slowly retreated, his gaze fixed firmly on Jiang Yu’s body.
He had secretly made preparations to leave this room at the fastest speed as soon as a change occurred.
However, as he retreated, Lin Bai suddenly bumped into someone’s body.
Lin Bai’s hair stood on end as he dodged away. The woman he bumped into also seemed to be frightened and let out a low scream.
It was Yu Jinmo’s voice.
Lin Bai’s heart, which felt like had been hanging in his throat, finally returned to its original position. However, the next moment, he became even more nervous.
“What are you doing here? Go back quickly!”
Lin Bai was worried that Yu Jinmo would be affected by the black gas, so his tone couldn’t help but become a little anxious.
Yu Jinmo was stunned for a moment, then a sense of grievance surged into his heart.
She pursed her lips and grumbled unhappily, “I just wanted to see what you’re doing, why are you so fierce...”
Lin Bai realized that his tone just now wasn’t appropriate, so he hurriedly explained, “It’s dangerous here, stay away.”
Yu Jinmo asked in confusion, “Dangerous?”
She looked into the room and saw Jiang Yu sleeping quietly on the bed. Everything was normal.
This made her even more confused.
“What danger? isn’t everything fine?” Yu Jinmo asked.
Lin Bai finally realized something and asked tentatively, “Can’t you see?”
Yu Jinmo was confused. “See what?”
Lin Bai looked at Jiang Yu who was lying on the bed. In his sight, Jiang Yu’s stomach was still surging with black gas.
However, it was slightly different from before. Jiang Yu’s stomach had already returned to its normal size.
Yu Jinmo followed Lin Bai’s line of sight, but he couldn’t see anything.
She couldn’t help but ask, “Lin Bai, what did you mean by what you said just now??Why are you acting strange today?”
Hearing Yu Jinmo’s question, Lin Bai was even more certain that she really couldn’t see anything.
Otherwise, anyone would feel that the black mist was dangerous.
Facing Yu Jinmo’s question, Lin Bai didn’t know how to explain.
He even had a moment of self-doubt. Was the black mist in his eyes an illusion?
However, he quickly denied this thought.
He was certain that everything he had seen and sensed in his half-awake state wasn’t an illusion.
He was even more certain that everything he saw wasn’t an illusion.
That must be because Yu Jinmo didn’t have a superpower, so she couldn’t see the black gas condensed from supernatural powers.
Lin Bai thought for a moment and decided to temporarily keep Yu Jinmo from knowing about the existence of these supernatural powers.
Therefore, he casually lied.
“I had a nightmare just now. I dreamt that that bastard ran back to hurt Jiang Yu. I was worried, so I came over to take a look.”
Yu Jinmo was skeptical.
“Then what do you mean by dangerous?”
Lin Bai could only bite the bullet and continue to make something up.
“Maybe I was a little sleepy just now. My mind was still filled with the scenes from my dream. I kept feeling that that guy was hiding in the closet, so I was in a hurry to let you out.”
Yu Jinmo couldn’t help but look at the closet, feeling a chill run down his spine.
She grumbled, “Now that you’ve said that, I feel a chill down my spine.”
Lin Bai comforted her, “Don’t be afraid, Don’t be afraid. Dreams are the opposite of reality. Don’t you see that everything is fine now?”
Yu Jinmo nodded. Still, he couldn’t help but walk to the closet. He carefully opened the closet door and peeked inside through the crack.
After confirming that there was no one inside, he let out a long sigh of relief.
“I was scared to death! Seriously, don’t say such scary things in the middle of the night again!”
Yu Jinmo patted her chest and said.
Lin Bai nodded repeatedly. “Okay, okay, okay. I won’t say it again. I promise.”
“That’s more like it.”
Yu Jinmo looked at Jiang Yu again and confirmed that she was sleeping soundly. He said,?“Since we’ve confirmed that she’s fine, let’s go back to our rooms quickly lest we wake Jiang Yu up.”
Lin Bai was a little hesitant.
He realized that while he was talking to Yu Jinmo, the pendant had absorbed all the black gas.
Jiang Yu’s stomach no longer emitted black gas. Everything seemed to have returned to its previous state.
The pendant didn’t seem to be any different from before.
‘Should I take the pendant back?’
The moment this question flashed through Lin Bai’s mind, he already had the answer.
He had to take it.
No matter what, it was still one of the pieces of the prophecy tablet. It had a lot to do with the Future News app, as well as Lin Bai’s various superpowers.
It wasn’t easy for Lin Bai to get it, so how could he give it up so easily?
Besides this reason, there was another reason, which was also very important.
That was, Lin Bai’s intuition didn’t sense any danger.
If that was the case, why would he give up something so important?
Thus, Lin Bai decisively said to Yu Jinmo,
“If you’re sleepy, go back to sleep first.”
“I’ll check Jiang Yu’s pulse to confirm her physical condition. I’ll go back later.”
Yu Jinmo said without thinking, “I’ll accompany you.”
However, just as he said that, she could not help but yawn.
Lin Bai smiled and said, “Little fool, don’t force yourself to sleep when you’re so sleepy. Go back to sleep. I’m just taking your pulse. It’ll be quick.”
Yu Jinmo couldn’t help but feel sleepy. He also felt that with Lin Bai’s character, he definitely wouldn’t take the opportunity to do anything out of line with Jiang Yu, so he nodded obediently.
“Mm, then I’ll go back first. Hurry up too.”
After saying that, she yawned and went back to her room.
Lin Bai suddenly had an illusion, as if he had seen his future married life with Yu Jinmo.
Yu Jinmo was usually very shy, and even normal kissing would make her blush.
But just now, when she urged Lin Bai to go back to his room earlier, her tone was as natural as an old married couple.
Thinking of this, Lin Bai couldn’t help but laugh.
Yu Jinmo had already returned to the room next door. Lin Bai gathered his thoughts and turned around to look at the pendant on Jiang Yu’s stomach again.
Out of caution, he did not reach out to take it directly. Instead, he silently activated divine-level medical skills and activated his clairvoyance ability.
In an instant, in Lin Bai’s line of sight, Jiang Yu’s entire body became translucent. All of her bones and meridians were clearly visible.
The monster in her stomach was also clear.
Lin Bai realized that the thing had retracted all its spikes and was drilling down.
It looked like it was afraid and hiding from something.
Lin Bai naturally thought of the pendant.
He tentatively reached out and gently touched the pendant.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual, he carefully picked up the pendant.
As the pendant slowly left, the monster in Jiang Yu’s stomach clearly relaxed.
The sharp spikes that she had tried so hard to hinder had grown back and began to slowly absorb Jiang Yu’s Qi and blood like before.
In order to further prove his guess, Lin Bai put the pendant back on Jiang Yu’s body.
