?Chapter 143: 135 The Ugly Head Seeking to Repay (Votes for Monthly Ticket Please) Chapter 143: 135 The Ugly Head Seeking to Repay (Votes for Monthly Ticket Please) Lin An’s bed at home was huge.

His forty-something square meter apartment was a standard two-bedroom with a living room. To live comfortably, he had knocked down the walls to create one large room, and hadn’t even furnished it with a sofa or a living room set, leaving enough space for a super spacious king-size bed.

He was lying on it now, and it was still very spacious…

Hell no~
Lin An felt like he was about to break down.

He couldn’t even begin to imagine the horror if Feng Xin discovered that the two witches, who had just been fleeing for their lives, were actually lying right beside him.

Nor could he imagine, if Chen Shuyun and Shasha emerged from underneath the blanket, and found this Demon Hunter sleeping in their own home, what would happen next.

They weren’t about to tear down the home he had only recently managed to get a mortgage for, were they?

No, that was the problem of whether he should quickly flee the city overnight!

Lin An stood helplessly by the bed, rubbing his hair vigorously.

Suddenly, he turned his head forcefully and looked towards the door.

His vision spread rapidly across the entire building, empowered by his Innate Witchcraft ‘Sky-Scanning Eyes’.

At this moment, if the small boss came knocking on the door again, calling out, “An, An, come open the door,” or something like that, he would absolutely go insane!

Fortunately, that did not happen.

Lin An’s expression flickered for a moment, he pursed his lips, and started to plan the cleanup.

First, he picked up Feng Xin’s casually thrown jacket and trousers from the floor, folded them neatly, and placed them on the bedside table. Then he found a thin blanket from the wardrobe and covered her with it.

Next, he took a bottle of mineral water from the large cabinet next to the kitchen and walked to the bed, carefully lifting the witchcraft blanket and crawling inside.

In an instant, a warm and soft sensation enveloped him; Chen Shuyun covered her mouth and stared at him blankly, her eyes seemingly asking—”What are you doing?”

Lin An did not speak, and in the moment he covered himself with the blanket, an endless darkness invaded, bringing with it a sensation that sent chills deep into his soul.

Honestly, the witchcraft “Little Quilt No Love” was truly miraculous, effectively concealing them from a seasoned Demon Hunter like Feng Xin, keeping the Wizard right by her side undetected.

But the experience was genuinely terrible, as if the whole person had been abandoned by the world, sinking ever deeper into a horrifying feeling.

Lin An didn’t know how Chen Shuyun could manage it, still keeping such rich expressions.

The moment he got inside, he felt incredibly uncomfortable.

Cautiously, he picked up the mineral water and placed it between their faces, raising his eyebrows at her.

“Thank you,” Chen Shuyun whispered softly, her voice very weak as she gently shook her head, “I’m not thirsty.”

“!!!” Lin An was stunned for a moment, then widened his eyes and forcefully tapped the bottle of water, “I’m asking you to take Shasha and hide inside. Can’t your Innate Witchcraft take you into the Water Mirror World? Then I’ll carry the bottle to the yoga studio, get it?”

Chen Shuyun looked at him innocently, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment.

She nodded furiously like a little squirrel.

Just then, the blanket suddenly trembled, as if a pole was pressing down on the two of them, and Shasha, lying furthest in, was jolted with a whimper.

Chen Shuyun trembled with fright, her eyes wide with confusion looking at Lin An.

But Lin An just shook his head slightly, signaling her to ignore it.

He continuously maintained the ‘Sky-Scanning Eyes’, an ability that was practically Super Dimensional and could not be sealed even by the witchcraft blanket.

Yet it didn’t make him feel any better; the all-encompassing vision of Sky-Scanning Eyes only intensified that creepy feeling deep in his heart while under the witchcraft blanket.

Lin An had no choice but to do this.

While communicating with Chen Shuyun, he also had to carefully watch every slight movement of Feng Xin.

The tremor was just Feng Xin turning over, pressing her long and muscular leg onto the witchcraft blanket.

Lin An had only seen legs with such fluid muscularity, full of strength yet smooth lines and feminine softness on websites.

Even covered with scars, large and small, they exuded the wildness of a leopardess even in tight-cycling shorts.

“Quick, hide inside!”

Lin An urged her.

Chen Shuyun nodded quickly, reaching out to embrace the fainting Shasha beside her, and softly thanked Lin An before disappearing.

At once, Lin An’s vision cleared and Chen Shuyun and Shasha’s figures vanished from his sight.

The loneliness of being alone under the witchcraft blanket quickly spread through his heart.

Lin An pursed his lips, looking at the mineral water bottle in his hand, and indeed saw a distorted image within it. Peering closely, he could see Chen Shuyun stabilizing Shasha flat on the ground.

He wrapped the mineral water bottle in a prepared black bag, and only then did he crawl out from under the witchcraft blanket again.

Afterward, he carefully withdrew the blanket from under Feng Xin and picked up the suitcase on the bed, along with the Thunderstruck Wood that activated the witchcraft blanket.

He inserted the Thunderstruck Wood onto the suitcase, wrapped it up with the blanket, and quietly stuffed it into the bottom of the wardrobe.

He carefully left the room with the bottle of mineral water in hand.

After closing the door, Lin An didn’t leave right away.

He stood calmly in his original spot, his gaze still spying on everything in the room through the ‘Sky-Scanning Eyes.’
Only after watching for a full ten minutes and making sure Feng Xin wasn’t faking sleep did he slowly leave the neighborhood with the bottle.

Taking a taxi, he arrived at a nearby mall bustling with people, then entered the Purgatory World through the restroom of the mall.

Only then did he transform into a black cat, cautiously avoiding any traces of the Witch Hunter Knights’ activities, and ran towards another corner of the city where the yoga studio was located.

Life is tough, Lin An sighed.

…

When Feng Xin woke up, the sky had already darkened. She took a look around at the activity within the Purgatory World and roughly sensed that the Witch Hunter Knights’ day-long hunts had ceased.

She sat up from the bed, looked around, and saw her clothes on the bedside table.

Dressed in camo pants and a windbreaker, she pulled out her phone from her pocket, finding two missed calls and a text message.

Opening the text message, it read—Eyeball Witch Monster ‘Cotton Tree’ not found.

Feng Xin stretched her shoulders and back, her body making tiger-like crackling sounds. She shook her hands and legs vigorously and prepared to continue with renewed spirit.

“Hey, you’re awake?”

A person emerged from the kitchen beside the entrance to the room—it was Lin An, wearing an apron and holding a spatula in one hand.

Lin An smiled slightly, “While you were asleep, I went to the mall to buy some groceries. If you’re not in a hurry, would you like to join me for a meal?”

“No!” Feng Xin immediately refused with a look of disgust, “I don’t trust a Demon Hunter to have any decent cooking skills. You all cook without a soul. I’m going to enjoy some local delicacies of Shenhou City!”

With that, she glanced at Lin An, “What are the local specialties of Shenhou City?”

“Ginger Duck, Mustard Rice, Oyster Omelette, Beef Soup…”

Feng Xin swallowed hard, her eyes lighting up, “Which place is the most authentic?”

Lin An smiled slightly and gestured at the kitchen, “I used to work part-time in a hotel as a kitchen helper and learned a few tricks there. Why don’t you come and see if you like my cooking?”

Feng Xin was stunned, sizing up Lin An. Her nose twitched, “Can you really cook?”

Lin An shrugged, “I seldom cook since I’m usually busy with work, but it should still be quite decent.”

Indeed, it was quite decent.

Feng Xin gobbled up three large bowls of Mustard Rice and barely resisted calling for a fourth bowl of Beef Soup. The Ginger Duck, which had been stewing for a long time, mostly ended up in her mouth.

“I’m really sorry,” she said after finishing, rubbing her hands together, feeling that Lin An didn’t eat much.

Lin An shook his head with a smile, clearing away the dishes and utensils, “I should be thanking you. Those eyeballs you brought, they are truly precious.”

They were indeed a great help to Lin An, and even the Ugly Head drooling at the table was gratefully looking at Feng Xin.

This dinner invitation was the Ugly Head pleading with Lin An to help out.

It wept for the return of its sight.

Weeping and insisting, it made Lin An promise not to order takeout but to cook personally as a thank-you.

Having no choice, Lin An had to do this favor for it.

“Unrelated matters are unrelated matters,” Feng Xin waved dismissively, “Hey, you sit down; I’ll take care of it.”

Feng Xin had an air about her that Lin An rarely saw–that carefree and bold demeanor of a ‘wanderer’ commonly found in novels or TV dramas. She efficiently cleared the table and washed the dishes.

At this moment, the door was suddenly knocked on.

“An, An, open the door, quick!”

Lin An’s expression turned bizarre as he looked at the Ugly Head, which was also staring back at him in surprise, “Well, aren’t you a prophet?”

No, because the boss is just like that.

Whenever there’s a problem, he comes knocking loudly, looking for someone to sort it out.

Lin An shrugged, smiling as he went to open the door.

As soon as the boss saw the door open, he began to complain to Lin An, “It’s all because of those three rabbit eyes that I had to hide all day long, oh the frustration.”

Noticing Lin An’s odd expression, he glanced towards the kitchen entrance by the hallway, and upon hearing the suddenly loud dishwashing noises, he took a sharp breath, “Chen Shuyun is at your place doing the cooking?”

You’re making everyone envious, even I, your boss, am still single. You’re so despicable, how dare you!

How jealous I am!

Huh, wait!

The boss suddenly exclaimed, “Lin An, are you crazy, bringing her to your house at this time? Aren’t you afraid of being…”

His words abruptly stopped as he stared wide-eyed and incredulously at Feng Xin stepping out of the kitchen, “Rabbit… rabbit… rabbit eyes?”
