Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 949 - 945: Dream Entry

"Did a bad guy break into the house?" Duoduo exclaimed in surprise.

"Is it a thief?" Dou Dou’s eyes widened, wanting to go out and see.

"What’s there to steal in this house? It should be Xiao Ya’s father." Xiao Yue rolled her eyes.

Dou Dou’s face showed a look of shock.

"Didn’t her father die? Could he have become a ghost like us?"

"If so, he’s quite formidable, making such a ruckus." Duoduo said.

"What nonsense, he’s alive, just out having fun somewhere and returning now." Xiao Yue said irritably.

"Didn’t Potato say her parents were dead?" Dou Dou asked in surprise.

"When did brother say that?"

"He definitely said it, right, Sister Duoduo?"

Dou Dou wanted Duoduo to back her up, even calling her sister for support. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"You said they were dead; brother said not really but didn’t clearly say they were." Xiao Yue said irritably.

"Is there a difference?" Dou Dou asked with a puzzled expression.

Xiao Yue didn’t want to argue further and walked straight outside.

She saw a middle-aged man, reeking of alcohol, slumped in a chair.

He was mumbling to himself, inaudibly.

Dou Dou, who followed behind, curiously reached out and poked him lightly.

Then she said in surprise, "So he really is a person."

Xiao Yue couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

"He doesn’t seem very formidable," Duoduo said, sizing the man up.

Dou Dou immediately chimed in, "But Xiao Ya seems very afraid of him."

At that moment, the man sitting with his eyes closed suddenly opened them, stood up abruptly, and kicked the chair he was just sitting in, cursing loudly with foul language.

He then shouted, "Xiao Ya, Xiao Ya... where the hell are you? Didn’t you hear Laozi calling you..."

"Xiao Ya, come out here to Laozi..."

Then Xiao Ya’s timid figure appeared at the door.

She called out, "Dad."

Seeing this, Dou Dou became anxious for her.

"Are you an idiot? Go hide, your dad looks fierce, not like a good guy..."

"Quick, go back; be careful he hits you."

Duoduo even tried to push her, completely forgetting she was a ghost and Xiao Ya couldn’t see her.

"Duoduo, go back and tell brother that Xiao Ya’s dad has returned." Xiao Yue said.

Duoduo hesitated for a moment, "Tell brother?"

"Of course, why else did brother have us come here?"

"Oh, okay." Duoduo finally reacted.

"Yes, yes, tell Potato to teach the bad guy a lesson, beat that big bad guy." Dou Dou nodded repeatedly.

While they were talking, Xiao Ya’s father continued his cursing.

"Are you deaf, can’t you hear me calling you..."

"Good-for-nothing, only knows how to sleep..."

"Get me some water; Laozi is dying of thirst..."

"Standing there doing what, are you dead..."

...

Xiao Ya seemed very scared, clinging to the door frame, looking up, fixating on the staggering man approaching her, her body trembling slightly.

"You little bastard, Laozi is talking to you..."

The man, seeing Xiao Ya not moving, slapped her directly.

Just then, he suddenly felt someone push him hard from behind.

Having drunk too much, he was already unsteady, and now he staggered forward several steps, tripping over the threshold and falling face-first into the doorway with a bang.

Xiao Ya was so frightened she shivered, tears welling up in her eyes, appearing so pitiable that it could break anyone’s heart.

The fall was quite severe, and the man lay groaning on the ground, unable to get up momentarily.

He struggled a few times but couldn’t rise, so he called out loudly, "Xiao Ya, help Laozi up..."

Though terrified, upon hearing him, Xiao Ya still stepped forward, wanting to help her father up.

But at that moment, a hand grabbed her arm, startling her.

She turned her head and saw Xiao Yue looking at her seriously.

Having been holding back her tears, they now silently rolled down her cheeks upon seeing Xiao Yue.

"Hello, big sister." She said in a choking voice.

Despite the situation, she didn’t forget to greet Xiao Yue.

It’s not that she’s polite, but rather because having gone through too much, she learned to please others at all times.

"I’ll beat you, bad guy."

Just then, Dou Dou suddenly jumped out from behind Xiao Yue and kicked the man in the back.

"Beat you, big bad guy."

Dou Dou’s sudden action startled Xiao Ya again, and she instinctively clung to Xiao Yue’s arm tightly.

"Don’t be afraid." Xiao Yue comforted softly.

After all, Dou Dou was a child, and without using "Divine Power," her full strength barely hurt the man.

"Who are you? How did you get into my house?"

Having fallen and been hit, the drunk man seemed somewhat sobered up and attempted to get up again.

Dou Dou, seeing the man trying to get up, also got startled and quickly hid behind Xiao Yue, peeking out.

Xiao Ya, equally scared, showed a face of terror, trembling all over.

"Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you."

Xiao Yue was reminded of her past by Xiao Ya’s situation.

The man who called himself her "father" did her great harm, and back then, how she wished someone could help her, but ultimately...

Thus, she deeply empathized with Xiao Ya.

Shen Siyuan had just reached Xiao Ya’s home when he heard the man’s cursing inside.

He quickly pushed the door open, seeing Xiao Ya’s father struggling to rise while Dou Dou hid behind Xiao Yue, and Xiao Ya clung tightly to Xiao Yue’s arm, tears on her face, trembling uncontrollably.

"Who are you to break into Laozi’s house!"

The man, seeing Shen Siyuan through drunken eyes, glared at him arrogantly, but having just fallen, he trembled while speaking.

Shen Siyuan ignored him, first looking at Xiao Ya. Seeing she was only frightened and not hurt, he felt a bit relieved.

He walked up to the man, who tried to push him, but Shen Siyuan raised his hand first, lightly brushing his fingertips across the man’s forehead.

The man’s actions froze instantly, his eyes staring blankly ahead. His body weakened, and with a "thud," he fell to the ground, completely asleep, even snoring softly.

"Brother, what did you do to him?" Duoduo asked curiously.

"Let him rest for a while; take her back first. Sister Ruan and the others are waiting..." Shen Siyuan said.

"Okay." Xiao Yue replied, pulling Xiao Ya outside.

Xiao Ya was very obedient, not resisting, but upon reaching the doorway, couldn’t help looking back.

Then she got pulled by Xiao Yue, quickly disappearing into the night.

Watching them leave, Shen Siyuan retracted his gaze, looking at the sleeping man on the ground.

Then his Divine Sense spread like mercury, instantly linking with the man’s consciousness, entering his dreamscape.
