Recap
It was only a second later that the dark shadow grabbed the little doll and stuffed it directly into its mouth.
Ji Huaizhe: …!
He stood up abruptly, grabbed the dark shadow’s neck with one hand, and slammed his fist into its stomach.
“Spit it out!”
“Who allowed you to eat it! Spit it out!”
___
Chu Shici was stupefied.
He didn’t expect that dark shadow would be so hungry that it wouldn’t even let go of a little doll.
Originally, he thought that since he was just a doll, a new body can be made for him even if his current one gets eaten. Since the system keeps the pain blocker on, there’s nothing to worry about.
But not long after the dark shadow took him into its mouth, he suddenly felt severe pain coming from his body.
Chu Shici groaned and looked over with difficulty. A deep wound was made on the lower abdomen of the voodoo doll by the shadow’s fangs.
The pain blocker was obviously still on, so why was he in pain?
Just when Chu Shici was pondering this phenomenon, his thigh was stabbed hard again.
The voodoo doll was surrounded by sharp fangs, and pain signals were sent from almost every part of his body.
Chu Shici gritted his teeth and began to sweat from the pain.
Before he could react, the system, who had been watching the show, pulled him into the system space.
Entering the space, Chu Shici subconsciously checked his entire body thoroughly.
His clothes have been scratched, and his stomach is covered with scratches. Other parts of his body were not spared, there were wounds everywhere, it was like he had just rolled over a mountain of knives.
The system took out a small medicine box and applied medicine on Chu Shici.
[That dark shadow is awesome. Not only does he eat dolls, but he can also eat the souls that reside inside the dolls. Fortunately, your Zhe-ge’s punch was timely. The dark shadow was busy screaming and had no time to properly chew you. Otherwise, if it chews you with its big mouth with razor sharp teeth, you will lose at least one arm and a leg.]
The pain had been blocked for too long, and Chu Shici had not known what pain felt like for a long time.
He lay on the sofa breathing heavily, while the system took off his clothes and sprayed him with the medicine, all while watching the livestream outside.
[Your husband is fighting with the dark shadow now. It’s pure hand-to-hand combat.]
[The dark shadow has been trying to distance himself from your husband. It seems to be only good at long range? Melee combat is really popular in this world, with no chants and no cooldown.]
[Ah Ci, there is a missing piece of meat on your leg, it seems like it was scraped off by fangs. I’m going to find a book to see how to treat such a wound.]
After applying the medicine, the wound almost doesn’t hurt anymore.
Chu Shici sat up and looked out.
The voodoo doll was still in the dark shadow’s mouth, and he could only see what was going on outside through the gaps in the dark shadow’s teeth.
Ji Huaizhe’s already scarlet eyes became even redder.
Seeing that the dark shadow refused to spit out the doll no matter how hard he beat him, he simply reached out and forcibly opened the dark shadow’s mouth and grabbed the doll out of its mouth.
The dark shadow’s mouth was full of teeth as sharp as blades. The moment he reached in, Ji Huaizhe’s pale and slender hand was scratched up by the fangs, and blood flowed out uncontrollably.
He didn’t want to fight, so he grabbed the doll and ran away.
The shadow seemed to have no ability to think independently, it chased after him screaming about how famished it was. Ji Huaizhe was very fast, slipping past the shadow like a kite let loose.
The two of them ran out of the dormitory one after the other.
Ji Huaizhe gathered up his long nightgown and ran all the way to the teachers’ dormitory area.
The noises shook the Sorcerer Academy awake.
Several nearby wooden doors opened, and several sorcerer apprentices rubbed their eyes and looked outside.
The night was so dark that they could only see Ji Huaizhe, not the dark shadow.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Ji Huaizhe immediately shouted in a cold voice: “Don’t come out! Go back in!”
What he said was timely, but those students were in a daze and their minds were not clear.
The dark shadow’s scarlet eyes turned around rapidly, and finally abandoned the hard-to-follow Ji Huaizhe and rushed towards the nearest wooden dormitory.
With one glance, the student standing at the door was knocked down by a dark shadow.
The sound of chewing echoed in the silent hallway. The student screamed twice then became completely silent.
Students in several wooden rooms nearby looked on blankly, frightened to their cores.
Ordinary apprentices were no match for the dark shadow. Ji Huaizhe just wanted to lead it to the area where the teachers lived in, and did not want to involve other students.
Each dormitory has a defensive formation, and it will take a lot of time to break through the closed door.
But he never expected that these students would hear strange noises in the middle of the night and open the door to investigate without even thinking. They hadn’t even opened their eyes, and as sorcerers they didn’t even carry their wands with them.
The plan failed to keep up with the rapid changes unfolding in front of him, and when he saw someone being eaten, Ji Huaizhe turned around and went back, wanting to help.
When he finally pulled the eating shadow away, half of the student’s head had been chewed off.
Ji Huaizhe took a quick glance and found that he knew this person.
This student once made two special bronze mirrors, one of which was given to Ji Huaizhe by Lilith as a gift, while the other was kept in his hands.
The mirror is similar to a camera. Whatever Ji Huaizhe does, people on the other side can see it. Not only did that person watch it himself, he was also very forward-thinking and arranged a pay-per-view.
It only costs one silver coin to intrude into Ji Huaizhe’s privacy through the bronze mirror.
Ji Huaizhe realized something was wrong within the first two days of putting the mirror on the table.
Some people in the academy began to whisper that he had a small mole on his chest, which was located in a very sexy spot. They gathered together and pointed at his waist, implying that the reason why his waist was so small was because he was made to be held.
During that time, he was often stopped when walking through the academy. They threw gold coins at him and asked him how much he charged for a night.
Ji Huaizhe beat everyone who provoked him into the infirmary and smashed the mirror.
Even though it was placed at an angle, the bronze mirror could only illuminate the upper half of his body when he was changing his clothes, but this incident made him disgusted, and he never received any gifts after that.
Memories quickly passed through his mind and the sickening laughter seemed to echo in his ears again, the feeling of being secretly watched by a group of people resurfaced again.
Ji Huaizhe’s expression hardened and he became fierce.
He no longer stopped the shadow and pushed it onto the student’s body, signaling the shadow not to stop eating.
The crunching sound of chewing should have made people feel uncomfortable, but several nearby sorcerer apprentices who came out to watch the fun became excited.
They stared at this scene with wide eyes, as if they thought that it was not enough, they stood on tiptoes and stretched their necks out to catch a better glimpse of the scene.
The sorcerer’s roommate walked out of the room and saw his friend being chewed, but he didn’t react much. He just retreated back into the house, holding his wand and watching with vigilance and excitement.
Chu Shici, who was looking out of the system space, felt his scalp numb.
These lunatics were so ill that they should be thrown into a mental hospital with at least three caregivers for each person.
The system had roughly bandaged him up, leaving a few slightly serious wounds. It suggested that he go to Zhe-ge for treatment.
Sorcerers can rejuvenate the soul and are able to heal wounds inflicted on the soul.
Seeing the body being chewed to bits by the shadows, Chu Shici wanted to urge Zhe-ge to leave quickly, but when he looked up, he saw Ji Huaizhe standing there in a daze, as if someone had tapped his acupuncture points*.
*(In Wuxia stories, acupoints are often used as a martial arts technique where characters can strike or manipulate specific points on a person’s body to achieve various effects, such as immobilizing an opponent, causing paralysis, or even healing.)
That handsome face was still expressionless, but his eyes were very complicated.
There were many kinds of emotions mixed together, and Chu Shici couldn’t quite understand them.
He only saw a flash of excitement in Ji Huaizhe’s eyes as the dark shadow tore the corpse apart and blood splashed on the ground messily.
Some students ran to find the teacher, and soon a group of sorcerers rushed over to stabilize the situation.
In actuality, the overall situation is not as chaotic as it seems. One corpse is enough for the dark shadow to eat for half an hour. He was busy eating while the students were busy watching, it appears that the two sides were very harmonious.
In the absence of the principal, Ji Huaizhe’s mentor, the old witch, stepped in to take charge of the situation.
She glanced at the dark shadow, turned to whisper to other teachers, and finally made up her mind.
The teachers signaled for the students to disperse and raised their wands and began chanting.
Gems of different colors on the wand light up one after another. The surroundings became increasingly darker and darker.
Skull marks appeared one after another under the sorcerer’s feet, and black mist rose from the marks, flowing into the gems rapidly like a torrent.
As the chants ended, the black mist rushed towards the dark shadow, swallowing it up instantly.
The dark shadow didn’t even make a sound before disappearing.
The old witch wiped the sweat from her forehead, walked over with her wand and patted Ji Huaizhe on the shoulder, “Huaizhe, is he the shadow that you said before, that will get into your body?”
It happened too fast just now. Ji Huaizhe tightened the belt on his nightgown and hummed coldly, “Teacher, what is that?”
“It’s the hungry undead attached to your body. It was killed by us and will not haunt you again in the future.”
Ji Huaizhe frowned slightly and lowered his eyes to look at the kind old woman in front of him. He pursed his lips and said nothing in the end.
After a student died, the teachers seemed to be unfazed.
The sorcerers working in the kitchen picked up the student’s body and dragged him to the kitchen to use as ingredients for tomorrow.
Chu Shici watched the whole process and was so sick that he almost vomited. He raised his head and saw Zhe-ge covering his mouth at some point. But those scarlet eyes shone extremely bright.

After handling the scene and appeasing the students, the teachers returned to their dormitories.
Ji Huaizhe was also about to go back when he felt a hole in the doll’s body. He was probably bitten by the shadow, so Ji Huaizhe wanted to take this opportunity to remake the body of the doll.
Just as he was about to leave, the old witch suddenly stopped him.
“Huaizhe, we have already investigated your previous dormitory.”
Ji Huaizhe turned around and saw that the old witch’s eyes were as kind as ever.
“It will take about a week to clean up the teleportation array and all the other arrays in the room. The teachers have discussed it and feel that someone may want to do you harm.”
The old witch paused and stretched out her wizened hand to him, “After all, you are the Son of God and the hope of all of us. For your safety, you will stay with me until this matter is fully investigated.”
Chu Shici couldn’t believe this old witch, he tried to drag his injured body forward, trying to stop Zhe-ge.
Ji Huaizhe remained silent and looked at her with some scrutiny.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a long time, and the old witch laughed. “Young people want privacy and don’t like to play with old people like me. I understand. Don’t worry, I have a spare bedroom there.”
No matter how reluctant Chu Shici was, Ji Huaizhe returned to the teachers’ dormitory with the old witch.
After leading him into the bedroom, the old witch didn’t stay long, she put down a glass of hot milk, and went back to rest.
Ji Huaizhe looked down at the milk, thought for a while, and then poured it into the trash can.
Chu Shici was very pleased that Zhe-ge no longer ate whatever the old witch gave him. He is having doubts. This was a good start.
Finally free, Ji Huaizhe began to check on his little doll.
The doll’s body was full of pits and holes, and it was painfully unbearable to look at it.
Ji Huaizhe’s brows furrowed more the longer he looked at his doll. He gently stroked the doll with his fingertips and asked, “Does it hurt?”
The medicine given by the system was very good, and Chu Shici was no longer in pain, but he still pretended to wipe his tears and nodded aggrievedly, “It hurts.”
Ji Huaizhe checked the doll from beginning to end and found that the soul living inside was also injured.
He held the doll up to his mouth, preparing to heal him using magic. After Chu Shici heard that he was going to heal him, a soul suddenly emerged from the doll.
Seeing that his servant started running around again, Ji Huaizhe’s face darkened and he said firmly, “Go back.”
Not only did the blond man not listen to him, he floated to the table and sat down in front of him.
Under Ji Huaizhe’s cold gaze, the man lifted up his clothes, revealing his white belly full of wounds.
“Zhe-ge, it hurts so much here. I’m badly injured. When you heal me, can you do it for a longer time?”
