Miss Luo Yan’s Feet Are Buried With Corpses v4c6

The God of Malice is Watching the Land: Chapter 6 “Miss Luo Yan”

Xinya didn’t know what possessed her to say those words. In any case, she could hear her heart pounding violently, and her left eyelid twitched uncontrollably.

She felt like she had made a decision she might regret…

However, looking at Miss Luo Yan’s calm yet expectant eyes, Xinya ultimately couldn’t bear to pour out the chicken soup Miss Luo Yan had painstakingly stewed.

It was just a flashback…

No!

A sly glint flashed in Xinya’s eyes; she had come up with some “good” ideas.

Such a good thing, how could she enjoy it alone…

She had to drag a few others down with her… oh no, share it with others.

“Ahem, Miss Luo Yan, Anna is still upstairs in her room, I’ll call her down.”

Xinya smiled subtly, though a hint of cunning couldn’t be hidden at the corners of her mouth,

“Miss Anna hasn’t seen you in a long time either, she must miss you… and your chicken soup.”

Hearing this name, a flicker of confusion appeared in Miss Luo Yan’s eyes, but she still nodded,

“Mm, thank you for your trouble.”

Thus, while Miss Luo Yan carried the chicken soup to the dining room, Xinya ran upstairs and knocked on Anna’s door.

“Leave it outside.”

As usual, Anna’s voice came from inside the room, but it sounded somewhat weak.

Xinya had worried that Anna might have problems if she continued like this, but no matter what she said, Anna refused to leave the room.

So, Xinya could only buy some common medicines and send them in, and often stewed some tonics for Anna.

If something happened to Anna under her care… forget about this job, Xinya would probably end up in prison fighting rats.

The hardships of a worker…

And now, the opportunity for revenge had finally arrived.

“I refuse to believe you won’t come out even when Miss Luo Yan is back…”

Xinya smiled secretly, then said softly,

“Miss Anna, Miss Luo Yan is back, you…”

Before Xinya could finish, Anna opened the door, something she hadn’t done in a long time, and looked at Xinya with pleasant surprise,

“Really? Is Miss Luo Yan really back?”

“Uh… your reaction is really fast.”

Xinya was startled, and at the same time, she secretly peeked into Anna’s room. She was quite curious about what Anna had been doing locked up in her room.

But what she saw startled her even more.

What a mess…

Scraps of fabric and crumpled waste paper were scattered everywhere, and there was a faint fermented odor. It looked like a garbage dump—and it seemed Anna hadn’t bathed in a long time.

As a head maid, Xinya had a slight obsession with cleanliness, not personal hygiene, but the cleanliness of the residence.

In short, she couldn’t stand seeing dust or anything like that in the house. Every time she saw it, she would take out a mop and clean vigorously. Almost every maid had this habit.

Xinya couldn’t help but take a few steps back, but Anna’s eyes were like those of an alert kitten,

“Are you lying to me?”

“…Of course not.” Xinya sighed. “She’s in the dining room downstairs, waiting for us to eat together.”

“I’m going, Miss Luo Yan is really back! But, but my work isn’t finished yet… what should I do, what should I do… ah, I should go down and find Miss Luo Yan quickly, no no no, how can I meet Miss Luo Yan looking like this…”

Anna clearly panicked, babbling incoherently. Finally, the door slammed shut, and Anna’s voice sounded again,

“You guys go ahead and eat! I’ll take a shower and be right there!”

At the same time, the sound of the shower running could be heard, indicating that Anna was indeed hurriedly taking a shower.

Xinya chuckled, speechless, could only shake her head, then turned and walked down the stairs.

…….

In the mansion’s dining room.

Miss Luo Yan sat quietly at the dining table, her long black hair cascading down like a waterfall, her stunningly beautiful face expressionless.

Not cold or wooden, just expressionless, as if detached from the world.

When Xinya walked in and saw Miss Luo Yan like this, she couldn’t help but slow her breathing, afraid of disturbing her.

Miss Luo Yan seemed unaware of Xinya’s arrival, still sitting quietly, like a frozen work of art.

But in this world, who could create such a perfect work of art?

The steaming heat from the chicken soup filled the entire dining room, but Xinya inexplicably felt a chill on her skin.

“Coming, coming—”

Just then, Anna’s noisy voice sounded, and Miss Luo Yan finally moved. She turned her head towards the sound, but her eyes still showed no change.

The breathless Anna pushed open the door, saw Miss Luo Yan sitting at the dining table, and exclaimed with pleasant surprise,

“Ah! Miss Luo Yan, you came back so quickly!”

“So quickly?”

Xinya raised an eyebrow.

“Because Saint Shadow said that Miss Luo Yan might not be back for several years.” Anna waved her hand, but the next moment quickly covered her mouth, “Mmm, Saint Shadow said I couldn’t tell…”

So Saint Shadow had told Anna…

Xinya’s eyes flickered slightly. She knew that a small figure like her wasn’t qualified to touch secrets of this level, it was normal to be kept in the dark.

It was just… she still felt a little disappointed.

“Now that Miss Luo Yan is back, it should be fine to say it.”

Xinya said with a light smile.

“That seems right.”

Anna nodded thoughtfully, then shook her messy, water-drenched long hair.

—Indeed, Anna, who usually preferred short hair, now had long hair.

Her waist-length flaxen hair was tied into a thick braid with somewhat clumsy hands, and she wore a simple floral dress, a style that actually resembled what Miss Luo Yan would wear.

Miss Luo Yan had just looked at Anna since she entered the room, but hadn’t said a word.

This somehow dampened Anna’s enthusiasm quite a bit, but soon her gaze was attracted by the chicken soup in front of Miss Luo Yan,

“Eh, Head Maid, are we just having soup today?”

Xinya was, after all, a proper head maid. Even if she only took care of Anna, she always prepared four dishes and one soup, a balanced meal.

“…I didn’t make this,” Xinya suppressed her laughter, her face calm, “This is Miss Luo Yan’s cooking, she started stewing it as soon as she came back.”

At this time, Miss Luo Yan also nodded slightly,

“Mm.”

“Miss Luo Yan… made it?”

Anna’s face instantly changed, turning deathly pale,

“Didn’t you promise not to cook anymore?”

“…”

Hearing this for the second time, Miss Luo Yan frowned slightly, seemingly starting to consider whether to throw it away.

Seeing this, Xinya quickly winked at Anna, blinking frantically.

Anna naturally saw this exaggerated action and knew very well what Xinya was thinking, but the flashback from last time had left a considerable shadow…

And Anna always felt that this head maid was deliberately trying to trick her… this scheming woman!

“You will drink it properly, right, Miss Anna?”

Xinya smiled politely and elegantly, but Anna could read a hint of cunning in her eyes.

“…O-, Of course.”

Anna stammered, looking at the steaming chicken soup with some trepidation.

To eat food personally cooked by Miss Luo Yan, one must have the courage to face death.

Anna didn’t consider herself a brave person, but at this point… there was no other choice.

Miss Luo Yan’s slightly relaxed brows showed that she was indeed happy, and the joy of their long-awaited reunion couldn’t be refused…

Anna gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

Drink it!

Anna didn’t choose to sit next to Miss Luo Yan, but walked towards Xinya’s seat.

This mansion was Eastern style, so the dining room naturally didn’t have a long Western dining table, but a round table that could seat twelve people.

Out of politeness or some other reason, Xinya sat furthest from Miss Luo Yan, but not directly opposite her.

Anna walked directly to the seat opposite Miss Luo Yan, right next to Xinya.

She puffed out her cheeks, glanced at Xinya, her eyes seeming to say “Don’t try any tricks!”

If she wanted to secretly pour out the soup while drinking… no way!

Xinya did have this thought, and from this position, she could indeed do it without even Miss Luo Yan noticing, but this plan was ruined by Anna’s arrival.

“This little girl…”

Forget it, she was planning to drink it anyway.

Xinya took a deep breath and stood up.

Under the gazes of Miss Luo Yan and Anna, she ladled out three bowls of chicken soup, each with a piece of chicken, and pushed them in front of the three of them.

“Be sure to finish it all, don’t let Miss Luo Yan’s kindness go to waste.”

Xinya winked at Anna, who grimaced.

At this point…

Anna looked at the clear chicken soup with a few floating oil droplets, closed her eyes fiercely, picked it up, and gulped it down.

Go for it!

Better short pain than long agony!

Finish it in one go, let the flashback happen, and it will be over!

Holding her breath, her sense of taste sealed off by fear, Anna finished the large bowl of chicken soup in no time.

Xinya on the other side did almost the same, drinking the chicken soup with a pale face.

Only Miss Luo Yan herself, holding a small spoon, sipped elegantly, as if savoring it, or perhaps reminiscing.

A moment later, the two who finished the chicken soup looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other’s eyes.

It… didn’t cause any problems?

How could this be!

Miss Luo Yan had cooked many times before, and every time something went wrong. Even simply frying an egg could turn into something like a monster egg.

Stewing chicken soup wasn’t difficult for someone who knew how to cook a little, but Miss Luo Yan… even making soup that was barely edible was a fantasy.

Anna smacked her lips, realizing that the chicken soup actually tasted quite good…

Was she starting to hallucinate? Anna thought, trembling.

At the same time, Xinya stood up again and ladled herself another bowl of soup.

This time she didn’t drink it all at once, but slowly savored it, and even finished all the chicken inside.

“Delicious.”

Xinya put down the bowl, her chest heaving. One could imagine how much courage it took for her to repeat this.

“As long as it’s delicious.”

Miss Luo Yan nodded slightly, her expression showing no emotional fluctuation.

Could it be that after a trip to the Holy Mountain, even her cursed cooking talent had been fixed?

Anna, refusing to believe it, also went and drank another bowl, reaching the same conclusion as Xinya.

And she even pinched her thigh hard several times, finally confirming that this wasn’t a flashback scene.

Too unbelievable…

Just then, Xinya suddenly asked,

“By the way, Miss Luo Yan, why did your hair turn black? I remember it was silver before…”

Miss Luo Yan was stunned, seemingly not expecting Xinya to ask this question.

But before she could answer, Anna waved her hand and said,

“That’s quite normal. Miss Luo Yan’s hair color changes every time she uses her power. It has been red and blue before… but just highlights.”

Miss Luo Yan didn’t speak, just looked silently at Anna.

Her hair color slowly faded at this moment, but ultimately didn’t completely return to silver, leaving only a slightly gloomy gray.

“Like… this?”

Miss Luo Yan asked softly.

“Yes, yes, something like that.”

Anna nodded and counted on her fingers,

“I remember Miss Luo Yan mentioned that red represents ‘Envy,’ blue represents ‘End,’ and black… black…”

“Is ‘Absolute Death’.”

Miss Luo Yan added herself.

“Ah, Miss Luo Yan, have you already mastered the power of ‘Absolute Death’?” Anna said in surprise, then thought back, “No, wait, it seems you already used it back in Yan City…”

In the various incidents in Yan City, including Ghost Town, the “Manjusaka” Luo Yan used was the Forbidden Technique derived from the “Absolute Death” power.

Miss Luo Yan didn’t answer, just sat quietly.

Hearing this, Xinya frowned slightly. Although she was an ordinary person, she was assigned to take care of the higher-ups attending the Ten Cities Council, so she naturally understood some key information.

For example, the Primordial Demons, for example, demonic powers.

And for example, the only Primordial Demon without any followers or God’s Chosen was the Witch of Absolute Death.

The only Primordial Demon to descend upon the present world in its complete form was also the Witch of Absolute Death.

Given the various phenomena Miss Luo Yan had displayed before, applying common sense to her was clearly inappropriate.

However, Xinya still felt something was strange, especially about the current Miss Luo Yan, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time.

Although she had the same appearance, Xinya’s intuition told her that this was very different from the Miss Luo Yan she once knew…

No, something wasn’t right…

Thinking of this, Xinya suddenly narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at “Miss Luo Yan” in front of her, and asked softly,

“Miss Luo Yan, may I ask… do you still remember my name?”

Hearing this question, “Miss Luo Yan” remained silent, but her gaze deepened slightly.
