    • by spirapira Eileen felt that Yu Sheng always had an endless supply of strange ideas, and he was always full of energy when it came to carrying out those absurd notions—she had been certain of this ever since the time he pulled those two lotus roots out of a drawer. And compared to "cutting a piece of meat off an entity to taste whether it's salty" and "trying to use lotus roots to make a body for the puppet," attempting to grow vegetables in the now-peaceful Otherworld space actually seemed far less absurd. After…
    • by spirapira Going out for a trip? Hu Li froze for a moment when she heard Yu Sheng's words, then immediately and rapidly dried the remaining few bowls on her tails, grabbed one tail to wipe the sesame paste from her mouth, and said, "Okay, I'm ready to go right now..." Yu Sheng watched this girl with a twitching eye: "It's not that urgent — you use your tail to wipe your mouth?" Hu Li looked down at the sesame paste on the tip of her tail, only belatedly realizing what she'd done. She stuck her tail back into the…
    • by spirapira What lay beyond the valley? Yu Sheng felt this was a perfectly natural curiosity—those rolling, undulating mountains stood quietly within his line of sight, not looking so impossibly tall as to be unclimbable, and the sky was no longer covered by any terrible barrier. Anyone in this place should wonder what scenery lay beyond those mountains. "Have you ever tried climbing over those mountains before?" Yu Sheng asked Hu Li curiously. "I... tried a long time ago, back when the immortal was still here," Hu…
    • by spirapira Little Red Riding Hood knew that anyone living inside an Otherworld had to be strange, but she discovered she'd still underestimated just how bizarre the "family of three" at Yu Sheng's place truly were. Especially once they started eating. A doll that didn't need to eat sat prim and proper right on top of the dining table, with a dedicated set of bowl and chopsticks placed before her, looking for all the world like a memorial offering. A fox spirit with a mass of tails kept pulling all manner of snacks…
    • by spirapira A faint, ghostly glow flickered within the great door leading to the valley. Yu Sheng stepped across this threshold, and in the next instant, brilliant daylight flooded his eyes. Yu Sheng squinted, lifting his gaze to peer into the distance before looking up at a sky dotted with wisps of scattered cloud. After that enormous eyeball covering the sky had departed, this Otherworld once known as "Night-shrouded Valley" had seen its eternal night come to an end. But Yu Sheng hadn't expected that it would still…
    • by spirapira Chapter 75 - "Another Boundary City" Before long, two more people had arrived in Baili Qing's office. One was the burly Song Cheng, and the other was a man whose hair had already gone salt-and-pepper, looking to be in his fifties. The latter wore a pair of narrow-framed glasses. He was of modest height and slightly portly, looking like any ordinary mid-level office manager who was already coasting toward retirement. Baili Qing looked up at the two people who had entered her office and gave a slight nod.…
    • by spirapira "Can you two see the house up ahead?" Standing before the gate of No. 66 Wutong Road, Yu Sheng raised his hand and pointed at the old building in front of them, addressing Hu Li beside him and Eileen, who was cradled in Hu Li's arms. "Sure," Hu Li nodded naturally. "It's right there. I could see it when we left, and I can see it now that we're back." Yu Sheng nodded, then turned to Little Red Riding Hood, who had come along with them. "Can you see it?" Little Red Riding Hood widened her eyes, staring at…
    • by spirapira Chapter 73 - The Convenience of Official Organizations Baili Qing didn't probe further into the "other accident" Yu Sheng had mentioned, nor did she press him about Eileen's situation. She simply gave Yu Sheng a general explanation about Alice's Cottage. "Most of Alice's Dolls operate outside the Borderland. They maintain the balance of other places and almost never interfere with Special Operations Bureau affairs. However, they do have an established communication channel with the Borderland—a contact…
    • by spirapira Chapter 74 - Departure Hearing Yu Sheng's muttering, Baili Qing's expression turned somewhat peculiar for a moment, but she said nothing, merely continuing to observe the "man" across from her with mild curiosity. Whether it was answering questions or helping resolve minor troubles, all of that was secondary. The most important thing about today was the "contact" itself. She had made contact with a great many entities—all kinds of them. She had killed them, exiled them, conversed with those strange…
    • by spirapira Chapter 71 - Learning More Yu Sheng had no idea why the woman across from him—the self-proclaimed Bureau Chief of the Special Operations Bureau—had suddenly frozen. He simply studied her with some curiosity, and when she didn't speak, he took the initiative to start the conversation: "You know, your Bureau really rolls out the red carpet when 'contacting' people of interest. I figured Li Lin and his team would be the ones meeting me—didn't expect to be seeing the Bureau Chief directly. Is it always…
