“You are not to leave the house without my explicit approval, understand?”
The panda bobbed its head in the living room.
“Let me introduce you.”

In the living room were the demons, Su Qingyi, the panda, the snow people, and Du Fei – this was the first time they all met in one place.
Du Fei was piqued by the snow people while having no interest in the demons. He circled Mite Snow and Millie Snow a few times over.
Once introductions were out of the way, Du Fei bolted.
The three demons went on the second floor and the panda went to study common sense in his room upstairs. Su Qingyi was handstanding, bouncing around in order to practice controlling her body. The snow people went to dutifully mind the chores.
Li Mo went to the sofa and picked the dalmatian plushie.
He kept it in the drawer for a long long time. Ye Xiaolu’s seemed to be out of it. Her attitude did a complete 180, ignoring him instead of attacking. She would stay put right where Li Mo left her.
Li Mo took the dalmatian plushie to his study and released her soul with a gesture.
Ye Xiaolu’s soul flooded the study in red.
Only this time, she quietly floated with a dull look and not an ounce of intent to strike.
“Oh, her temper faded and her memories along with it, becoming a mass of pure soul power. No wonder she’s so silent of late.
“It’s better this way. Soul power without memories is the best suited to be a Warding Shadow God.”
Li Mo gestured and then he heard Ye Xiaolu speak, “What am I in your eyes?”
“Still aware?” Li Mo was amazed.
“Answer me!”
“My mansion is missing a Warding Shadow God. You just happen to be the best choice.”
“That’s all?”
“Yes.”
Hum~
The red light in the study flared but then it dimmed soon after.
“Zhang Ding held me to marry me, but I never once liked him.
“All men are bastards!” Ye Xiaolu cursed.
Li Mo thought her memories faded along with her consciousness, but it appeared her behavior now is unlike her past self.
‘No, it changed. The fact she didn’t jump me is the best proof.’

“I always thought others let me down. Everyone around me bathed in my light. They wanted to thank me but I insulted them and they could do nothing but take it!
“The same went for men, replying to those that lied or were sincere in the same way. All because I was a princess in my life, destined for stardom!
“But now I see clearly…
“That I am nothing.
“You cast me in a plushie and I lashed out powerlessly. My feeble attacks never reached you. I then stopped speaking, stopped moving, but even then I got no reaction out of you.
“Because I was nothing to you to begin with…
“I always thought of myself aloof. Only to realize I am nothing. My life was an utter failure…
“I don’t want to attack you because I know that no matter how hard I try, I can never beat you.
“I only have one request.”
“Speak.”
“Let me go…”
Li Mo nodded.
“It’s possible, but you are no longer alive. If I let you go, you will soon vanish from this world since you have no soul item to sustain you.”
“It is of no importance. I am dead anyway and am not afraid of dying again.”
“As you wish.”
Li Mo gestured and Ye Xiaolu’s tie with the Spiritual Gathering Array was severed.
“Thank you.” Ye Xiaolu flew out the window.
Li Mo took the top red gold stone and ground it between his palms to fine dust. He added water and began painting.
There were special talismans that only worked if drawn with particular ingredients. And the red gold stone was such an item.
As Li Mo was in the middle of drawing, Ye Xiaolu came back.
“You’re really letting me go?”
“I removed all your bindings and you are free to go wherever you want.”
“I-is this truly what you want?”
“Eh?”
“I am Ye Xiaolu, you know!”
“And?”
“I… I… don’t you know all men want to sleep with me?”
“Whitey, Jadey, Niney, Millie Snow, are a hundred times more beautiful.”
Ye Xiaolu denied, “Th-they’re not human. They don’t count. Little Qingyi and An Yuxin are nowhere near my looks.”
“I have to say, you are right. But all I care about right now is to increase my strength. All other things hold no sway over me. For now at least.”
Ye Xiaolu scoffed, “You think you’re a saint? What unswayed, when I saw you rubbing that fair girl’s head and neck? What do you call that?
“Oh forget it. That’s not what I want to say. I thought it hard and decided to stay.”
“Suit yourself, but you will have to take on the job of this mansion’s Warding Shadow God.”
“Of the fox, pipa, pheasant, panda, and the chubby, who isn’t stronger than me? Why not make them into watchdogs? Just why should I do it?”
“There’s no why here. Do it if you want to or there’s the window.”
In a blink, the red light in the study turned darker.
“Ah, forget it. I can’t beat you anyway. I’ll just bear it for now. As the saying goes, revenge is never too late to dish out.”
Ye Xiaolu left and was soon back through the door.
She was wearing Su Qingyi’s body, walking around like it was her second nature.
“The lass’ body sure is fine. Even her chest is perky…”
Ye Xiaolu kneaded her chesties a few times for good measure.
Li Mo frowned.
Ye Xiaolu shot Li Mo a glare, “What’s with that look? Do you know how painful it is to be a wraith? I can’t feel, can’t touch. Throwing me in that plushie was no different than death. Now that I’m finally free, what’s wrong with me coping a feel of my own body?”
“Do what you want for all I care.”
“That’s exactly what I’ll do.”
Ye Xiaolu shed her jacket.
“Sister Lu, sister Lu, where’s my body?”
Su Qingyi floated over at this particular moment.
“Ahhh!”
