I Became a Witch in a World Full of Urban Legends

Chapter 195: Unexpected Surprise

One after another ripples swayed in the air, and the shimmering light attracted by the bamboo slips outlined an illusory, unformed vortex.

Seeing that the portal leading to the bamboo scrolls world was gradually taking shape, Yibei zipped up her jacket and turned to Professor Ma.

Professor, its about to start. I suggest you stay as far away as possible.

He wordlessly nodded, and seeing her walk towards the bamboo scrolls, he called out one last time, Yibei!

What is it?

Ah, if I study similar antiques again in the future, you have to help me check them so similar tragedies dont happen again.

In translation, he wanted me to come back safe, and she smiled. Got it!

She walked forward but stopped and ran back towards Professor Ma.

W-what? Are you not going in anymore?

No I just dont know how long Ill be in there, and I might get hungry, so

She snatched a few cooked fish from the ground and stuffed them in her pockets, then leapt into the portal, leaving Professor Ma behind.

The bamboo scrolls rapidly absorbed all energy from the surroundings, and the vortex soon glowed with an ominous scarlet light.

The portal beyond the vortex showed a black-and-white world, and the black mountains seemed to be dotted with a bloody light.

There were various sounds from the barren mountainsthe sobs of a girl, the sighs of an old woman, and the growls of a beast.

Before she fell into the vortex fully, she glanced back, and her pupils shrank in horror as they burned with intense pain.

She could see that there was a dense mass of strange figures looming behind Professor Ma.

A woman with long hair, covering her face with her rotten hands and feet exposed under her tattered dress.

A giant worm covered with sarcomas

Eight pale children stand together in a line, with dark red flesh connecting them together.

Something swam in the river, poking its head out.

There were more figures behind Professor Ma, and the number exceeded half a hundred.

They were strong and weak; the weakest had just formed, while the strongest caused Yibei to have intense pain in her eyes.

Various filthy and evil auras gathered together to form a terrifying aura.

Professor Ma is in danger! The damned bamboo scrolls, it must be!

She tried to shout but found that she couldnt make a single sound.

The world around her vibrated violently, and in the vortex of dizzying screams, she felt as if she had fallen into a dark pool and sank continuously.

Her body was pulled by a strange force, and an astonishing roar seemed to pierce right through her mind. She could see nothing, and all was black.

Soon, the bubble of darkness shattered, and she found herself on the damp floor of the world once again.

Following her instructions, Professor Ma stood 20 or 30 metres away, not noticing the number of figures that stood behind him.

However, they seemed to be afraid of something, keeping a respectable distance away from Professor Ma.

A weak urban legend tried to pounce on him, only for a powerful one to snatch up and devour the tinier urban legend.

This lasted until Yibei disappeared from sight, and he went to rest on a rock.

The moment he moved aside, the crowds of urban legends dashed towards the bamboo scrolls like kids during recess, but Professor Ma didnt even notice them.

But he could tell that something was wrong.

Eurgh, its so stinky. Did the fish go bad already? And why is it so cold?

Half an hour later, the bamboo scrolls gradually flickered and dimmed. Professor Ma looked at it for a while longer and leaned over to pick it up, walking towards his car parked in the distance.

Just as he started the car, he drove back to the city.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the river, a silver light flashed and disappeared in an instant.

A few minutes later, a military vehicle drove quickly towards the riverside.

I knew it! I knew it! Li Xuan shouted, with Jiangli sitting opposite him. I told you there was something wrong with Lu Yibei. I knew it!

Im not crazy! he shouted. I had people watching him this entire time, and sure enough, I found something!

An Qing glanced at Jiangli and sighed.

All of a sudden, a bright light flashed outside their vehicle, and the car door was forcibly opened. A strong gust of wind blinded them, and when they regained their vision, they saw Bai Kai sitting right next to Li Xuan.

Whats the situation like? Bai Kai asked, his eyes drifting towards Li Xuan knowingly.

Well, our colleagues detected a large number of urban legends near a river, but we arent sure whats happening now.

Man, I thought it was something really serious. I almost couldnt keep up with your car, he joked. Are you sure, though? I ran through the entire mountain, and I didnt sense anything unusual.

Thats impossible, Li Xuan interjected.

Are you doubting me?

Thats what I thought, he scoffed. By the way, I gave you a souvenir.

Li Xuan eyed him suspiciously. Why is Bai Kai so generous all of a sudden?

Bai Kai threw him a dark object, and feeling the rubbery texture through his gloves, he could tell that it was a piece of a rubber tyre, which almost strangely felt like his own tyre.

Did you slash my fucking tyre? Li Xuan yelled. Oh, youre done. Im going back to headquarters and filing a formal complaint against you!

And youre just among the many hundreds who filed a formal complaint against me, and yet, Im still here, Bai Kai shrugged and fell deep into his thoughts.

What was Yibeis professor doing by the river late at night?

Yes, he knew who Professor Ma was. Before Yibei enrolled in university, he had already investigated all of his teachers.

Later, he discovered that his godson had a special relationship with Professor Ma, yet he found nothing unusual.

Judging from the remnants of the psychic energy fluctuations, there were at least a hundred urban legends by the river accompanying Professor Ma, but he is now just alone there.

What happened? Will Yibei get thrown into the mental hospital?

It was strange to him. There were no humans living in the surrounding area for more than ten miles, and the urban legends disappeared when he arrived.
