As the metro doors closed once again, the battle outside the Blood Luo Cave had already begun. Amirka, without making any sound, charged forward with her Undead Corps, slashing wildly.

On the slowly moving metro, Gu Xi could clearly see the strange phenomena occurring in the metro station, with no sound detected at all.

Watching their actions, Gu Xi felt as if he were watching a silent film.

But the more it was like this, the less Gu Xi dared to make any sound randomly.

He understood that the silence inside the metro, and even the reluctance of the metro station to make any sound, was probably due to a powerful entity watching everything along the metro line.

In fact, Gu Xi guessed correctly, there was indeed a powerful entity present along the metro line here.

This entity was the type that liked to stay at home, often enjoying some pink movies.

But you understand, a homebody can’t make loud noises at home and can only watch silent films, skipping through the progress bar.

So gradually, this became the entity’s rule.

Even if it reached level 9, it couldn’t rewrite the rules.

Of course, the unaware Gu Xi had no intention of becoming enemies with this powerful entity. He was clearly aware of what he should and should not do at the moment.

Without the incessant voices trying to lure him into action, the journey ahead was quite safe.

Gu Xi was even interested in catching a glimpse of certain activities occurring in the metro car.

It wasn’t until Wudou Minami tugged on his sleeve that Gu Xi looked down at her.

At this moment, Wudou Minami was also blushing, too embarrassed to look around, with her head down, leaning against Gu Xi’s chest and pointing at the station sign.

Gu Xi looked up and found that, at some point, the station sign had changed back to normal names, and the metro was about to enter a station named Xia Chuanli.

At this point, Gu Xi realized they should disembark at this station.

So he lifted Wudou Minami into his arms and stood by the door.

While holding her, he glanced around, noticing a few couples enjoying themselves, undisturbed by the metro arriving at the station.

It seemed these people in the metro had been inside for quite some time.

So long that they’ve forgotten where they were going, so long that they’ll never be able to leave this metro line.

Maybe they believed they were in control of everything, but in reality, they had become part of the metro’s powerful entity.

Giving another glance at these people, when the metro stopped, Gu Xi swiftly left with Wudou Minami in his arms.

At the instant he stepped out of the metro door, the doors closed with a swish. Before Gu Xi could turn his head, the metro, as if urged by someone, rapidly departed.

Gu Xi could only see the tail lights of the metro, without knowing what the driver was thinking.

Actually, Gu Xi didn’t realize that when he boarded the metro, he hadn’t yet been noticed, but when he released Amirka, he was targeted.

The killing intent from Amimika and the battle at the Blood Luo Cave caught the attention of most of the powerful entities along the metro line.

If at first, the entities along the metro line viewed Gu Xi as just an ordinary person.

Now they considered Gu Xi as a plague god.

Now that Gu Xi wanted to leave, they naturally wanted to get him out of there immediately.

If not, were they planning to keep him on the metro until nightfall?

Unaware of all this, Gu Xi, silently followed the eerie rules, guided by Wudou Minami, keeping close to the wall and taking the specified route.

Once out of the metro station, Wudou Minami let out a long sigh.

”Finally out, every metro ride feels like a battle, always fearing I might not return.”

”Finally, I can speak. Why is this metro station so troublesome? Are there no other means of transportation?”

Gu Xi put Wudou Minami down.

Wudou Minami shook her head, ”Gu Sang, look at the time.”

Gu Xi was stunned for a moment, looking up at the metro station’s time, surprised to find that despite everything that had happened from entering to leaving the metro station, less than a minute had passed.

Now Gu Xi understood why the metro station was so dangerous, yet Wudou Minami insisted on taking it.

As long as the eerie rules were known, one could safely enter and exit the metro station, turning this metro line into a Divine Artifact.

However, Gu Xi still asked, ”How do you remember all these taboo rules of the metro stations?”

Wudou Minami smiled and said, ”Aside from not speaking, each station has its own rules. But you only need to remember the rule of the station you’re getting off at. While exiting, you just follow the path back the same way.

The rules are exactly the same, so there’s no need to fear making a mistake.

Actually, the only things that can go wrong in taking the metro are speaking accidentally or getting off at the wrong stop.

If you get off at the wrong station and return, you must follow the rules of the new station, and under such unknown taboos, it becomes extremely dangerous.”

Hearing this, Gu Xi silently sighed to himself.

It seems the eerie have already seeped into every corner of this city, and almost all ordinary people have come to accept it as normal.

In such a world, the absence of the eerie might, in fact, cause chaos in the city.

While Gu Xi was still pondering these thoughts, Wudou Minami had already walked out of the metro station with him.

Outside the metro station, a middle-aged man with his head lowered quickly approached.

”Are you Mr. Gu Sang and Miss Wudou?”

Upon hearing this, Gu Xi knew immediately the man was a real estate agent. Just as he was about to step forward, unexpectedly, Wudou Minami began conversing with the agent.

Afterwards, she handed a white envelope to the agent.

Gu Xi watched, feeling as if it were a funeral, seeing someone and handing over a white packet.

Receiving the white envelope, the real estate agent introduced himself to Gu Xi as Hundred Generations of You Sheng, claiming to be the top agent of the biggest real estate agency in the city.

Regarding the housing requirements, as long as it’s in this city, no matter the direction, he could find a satisfactory house for Gu Xi.

As for the price, that would be discussed later.

Talking as he took out a lot of brochures, he began briefing Gu Xi.

Gu Xi had already considered his desired house; he first needed a detached house.

The location wasn’t important, but it had to be cheap. Gu Xi didn’t have much cash, aiming for a house for two people, priced under three million yuan.

Additionally, he planned to rent a place around 200 meters from the Celestial Dao White-robed Great Guanyin, ideally with a small courtyard or open space, requiring no disturbance, and for a one-month short-term rental.

Upon clarifying these two requirements, Hundred Generations of You Sheng hesitated, ”Sir, your requests are not easy.”
