Film and Television: Building Pawnshop No. 8 Starting from Soul Ferry

Page 185

"If I asked you to pawn your soul here, would you be willing?"

A resolute light shone in Yue Qiluo's eyes as she responded without hesitation:

"If you ask me to pawn something, I will pawn it without any regrets."

Lin Yang nodded slightly, took out a contract that gleamed with a faint light from his sleeve, and handed it to Yue Qiluo:

"Here is your pawn contract, take a look."

Yue Qiluo took the contract, glanced at it briefly, and signed her name without hesitation.

Her handwriting was delicate, yet it conveyed a sense of resolute determination.

The moment the contract was formed, a dazzling light entered Yue Qiluo's body.

She felt a jolt throughout her body, as if she had undergone some kind of wondrous baptism.

At this moment, Yue Qiluo's soul underwent a tremendous change.

Originally just an immortal soul, it now seems to have been sublimated.

They became a higher form of existence, the Ghost Immortal.

She felt her power growing stronger.

Those beings that once had the power to subdue demons and monsters, such as lightning.

Now they are all powerless in her presence.

More importantly, her soul has become inextricably linked with Pawnshop No. 8, becoming a part of it.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing a pawn transaction. Current progress: 11/40]

"Congratulations on becoming an employee of Pawnshop No. 8."

Lin Yang's lips curled up slightly as he looked at Yue Qiluo.

Yue Qiluo felt better than ever before.

That transformation, from the inside out, made her feel more and more like a real person, full of vitality and energy.

She looked up at Lin Yang, her eyes shining with gratitude: "Thank you, Lin Yang."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly pounced on him and shyly planted a kiss on Lin Yang's cheek.

This kiss, like a spring breeze, made Lin Yang's heart tremble slightly.

This night was destined to be anything but peaceful.

The relationship between Lin Yang and Yue Qiluo.

It seems that a subtle change occurred during that kiss.

Until early the next morning.

Lin Yang led Yue Qiluo back to the Love Apartment.

Throughout the journey, Yue Qiluo behaved exceptionally well, nestled close to Lin Yang like a little woman.

When the two arrived at Love Apartment, they ran into Hu Yifei.

When Hu Yifei saw Lin Yang, a happy smile immediately appeared on her face: "Lin Yang, you're back!"

However, when she saw Yue Qiluo next to Lin Yang, her expression instantly turned cold.

She frowned, a hint of hostility in her eyes.

Yue Qiluo simply smiled, seemingly unconcerned about Hu Yifei's attitude.

"Brother Yang, who is this?" Hu Yifei looked at Lin Yang with a puzzled expression, her gaze lingering on Yue Qiluo.

Yue Qiluo spoke first, a smile playing on her lips, expressing her response and curiosity. "My name is Yue Qiluo, and I'm Yang Ge's woman."

Her eyes gleamed with confidence, as if declaring her sovereignty.

When Hu Yifei heard the name "Yue Qiluo," her pupils contracted slightly, and a barely perceptible hint of murderous intent flashed across her face.

But she quickly regained her composure, simply because Lin Yang was present and she didn't want him to see her lose her composure.

"Oh, I see," Hu Yifei said casually, but her tone revealed a hint of displeasure.

After saying hello, Hu Yifei turned and left.

Lin Yang watched Hu Yifei's departing figure, his brows furrowing slightly.

He turned to Yue Qiluo and asked, "What? Do you have a grudge against each other?"

Yue Qiluo smiled gently and said:

"I don't have any grudge against this girl, but the aura emanating from her makes me feel very uncomfortable."

"If I'm not mistaken, she should be from the Shu Mountain Sect."

Lin Yang was somewhat surprised upon hearing this. "The Shu Mountain Sect? How do you know about it?"

Yue Qiluo's eyes deepened. "Back then, it was Qingyun Temple in Shu Mountain that suppressed me."

"I was imprisoned by them at the bottom of the island in the middle of the lake and suffered all kinds of torture."

At this point, her tone turned icy, as if she were about to unleash a thousand years of pent-up resentment.

Lin Yang smiled: "Want revenge?"

Yue Qiluo said, "If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been imprisoned for over a thousand years."

She said, "I won't let this go."

That night, the moonlight, as white as frost, bathed the quiet park paths.

Yue Qiluo quietly left the villa, passing through the deep shadows of the trees, and arrived at the park near the Love Apartment.

Dressed in red, she was almost invisible in the night.

Only those bright eyes shone with a unique light.

Not far away, Hu Yifei stood quietly, her eyes wary and resolute.

Upon seeing Yue Qiluo's arrival, she showed no fear whatsoever.

"Young lady, this has nothing to do with you."

Yue Qiluo's voice drifted through the night sky, carrying an undeniable air of authority:

"But if you come knocking on my door, you'll only be making a fool of yourself."

Hu Yifei sneered: "What was your purpose in approaching Lin Yang? And why did you escape from the seal?"

"The Shu Mountain faction already knows about this. Do you think you can escape?"

Yue Qiluo laughed, her laughter appearing particularly eerie in the night:

"I approached Lin Yang, of course, because of him as a person."

"As for Mount Shu... hehe, even if they don't come looking for me, I'll settle accounts with them."

Hu Yifei frowned: "It seems I have no choice but to teach you a lesson today."

Yue Qiluo's smile gradually disappeared, replaced by a cold and stern expression:

"You? You dare to challenge me after only two days of studying at the Shu Mountain Sect?"

Hu Yifei retorted without backing down, "Enough nonsense! Let's find another place to settle this!"

Yue Qiluo nodded: "Alright! Let's have a good competition today!"

The two figures vanished in a flash.

Shortly after they left, Zeng Xiaoxian walked over, puzzled.

He looked around, as if searching for something.

"That's strange, I think I just saw Yifei."

He muttered to himself, "What is she doing here so late?"

Zeng Xiaoxian shook his head and returned to the apartment with a puzzled look on his face.

At this moment, on the outskirts of the capital, there was a desolate open space.

The moonlight, as white as silver, poured down, illuminating this deserted place.

Yue Qiluo and Hu Yifei stood facing each other, their gazes piercing, both radiating a chilling aura.

"You are the first opponent I have taken seriously in recent years."

Hu Yifei's voice was cold as she continued:

"Don't let my seemingly knowledgeable demeanor fool you; nobody knows me."

"I am actually the most talented person in the Shu Mountain Sect in the past hundred years."

"Today, even if you are an ancient monster who has cultivated for a thousand years, I will still kill you with a single sword strike."

Upon hearing this, Yue Qiluo carefully examined Hu Yifei for a moment, then laughed:

"I never expected that you would be the number one among the younger generation of Shushan."

"In that case, let me have a go at you today."

She made hand seals and muttered incantations.

In an instant, a bewitching aura spread out all over the place.

It seemed as if it wanted to dye the entire night sky red.

Immediately afterwards, countless paper figures appeared out of thin air, each one lifelike.

It was as if it had been resurrected.

Upon seeing this, Hu Yifei's expression turned serious.

She shouted, "Sword, come!"

Before he finished speaking, countless sword energies instantly condensed in the sky.

They formed countless incomparably sharp swords, their tips pointing directly at Yue Qiluo.

"Go." Hu Yifei shouted softly, and countless sword energies shot out like arrows released from a bow.
