Becoming a White-Haired Witch in a World Full of Anomalies
Chapter 52 : Bath
When Bai Ling was flying through the air and approaching E City, she slowly landed. Long-distance flight was still somewhat tiring, but she was already near E City's outskirts. Bai Ling planned to hail a taxi nearby.
But just after landing and taking a few steps, Bai Ling felt as if she had suddenly entered an anomalous domain, so she kept going in and out at the city's edge.
"Something's wrong. Why does it feel like I'm entering some anomalous domain as soon as I walk in?"
At this time in Black City, a giant computer had a head made of wires inside it, and the computer kept making "ding dong" sounds.
"Damn Blood Witch, get out! Ahhhhhhh! Get out!"
This was the "special attention" he had set for the girl.
After multiple attempts, that feeling didn't subside, but Bai Ling couldn't find the source. Helplessly, she gave up and caught a bus by the roadside.
A white-haired, red-eyed girl in a black dress holding a cat—the driver was a young man who immediately exclaimed upon seeing her.
"Can you encounter cosplay even here?"
"Miss, who are you cosplaying? You look really good. Can I add your WeChat?"
"Drive first, I'll tell you a story."
"Oh oh."
The girl's voice was particularly low and ethereal.
"I heard someone died around here yesterday, seems like they jumped off a cliff. Do you know about it?"
"Ah? I don't know, this is my first time here too."
The vehicle slowly moved forward, entering the urban area.
"I heard that person was wearing red clothes when they died, wanting to become a vengeful ghost and come back for revenge."
"There are no ghosts in the world. By the way, beauty, where are you going?"
Bai Ling took out a hundred yuan and handed it to the driver.
"Just stop up ahead, I'm home."
"Ah? But there's a funeral home ahead."
The driver scratched his head and looked back at Bai Ling. At this moment, Bai Ling wore blood-red wedding clothes with blood flowing down her face, looking very frightening. The driver was immediately too scared to speak and slowly turned his head back.
Bai Ling didn't open the car door but transformed into a blood light and left the vehicle. Seeing she could get out without opening the door, the driver immediately understood—this wasn't some prank show, he had really encountered a ghost!
In that instant, the driver quickly stepped on the gas and left the area.
Bai Ling watched the driver's departing direction with interest. Occasionally scaring humans indeed brought quite satisfying feelings.
However, there was a reason for setting the stopping point here.
Because Bai Ling felt Chi Xiaoyu calling for her, right inside this funeral home.
At this time, Chi Xiaoyu was fighting a corpse anomaly with her knife, but today her blade wasn't covered with lightning. Relying purely on physical strength, it was naturally difficult to resist anomalies.
"My contracted anomaly couldn't still be riding a shared bike, could it?"
【Bai Ling is obviously very strong, why is she so slow?】
Just as the girl couldn't help complaining, Bai Ling descended as a blood light. A blood-red shockwave burst open, scattering surrounding objects. The corpse anomaly, hit like this, immediately showed a dark hole-like wound leaking green liquid.
"Why is it this kind of corpse anomaly again? Didn't the person making artificial anomalies die?"
"I'm afraid one wave hasn't settled before another rises."
Chi Xiaoyu looked at the girl before her and couldn't help sighing that her contracted anomaly could finally fly. Patting Bai Ling's head, thinking that this girl before her was Lin Bai, Chi Xiaoyu couldn't help wanting to laugh.
"What's wrong?" Bai Ling asked in confusion.
"Nothing, just thought of something happy."
The corpse anomaly began slowly standing up, the hole in its body starting to heal. Roaring, it charged at Bai Ling. Bai Ling quickly raised her right fist, covered it with a circle of blood-red light and struck out. The corpse anomaly's entire head was blown off. Then Bai Ling shot out a blood-red sphere from her hand. As the sphere shattered, the corpse anomaly was instantly covered in blood and pierced by blood-red light.
After cleaning up the scene, Chi Xiaoyu fed the anomaly core to Bai Ling, took her hand and left the place, mounting her motorcycle.
"Where's your Thunder Anomaly?"
Bai Ling asked in confusion. Usually with this kind of anomaly, Chi Xiaoyu could easily handle it.
"I'm not too sure either. Theoretically, my Thunder Anomaly shouldn't be able to advance anymore because you've already occupied the B-grade anomaly slot. But Thunder Anomaly can indeed advance and is currently in the advancement process."
Chi Xiaoyu pondered. Bai Ling had an anomalous domain, so she was at least C-grade or above. Based on her displayed strength, she was undoubtedly B-grade. But Thunder Anomaly, as a C-grade anomaly, could still break through, so Bai Ling actually wasn't B-grade but A-grade?
Perhaps because Bai Ling was transformed from Lin Bai, she didn't occupy anomaly slots?
Chi Xiaoyu considered various possibilities.

Returning to the long-missed home, Maomao happily transformed into human form and turned on the TV.
"Maomao, aren't you going to rest?"
"Don't want to meow. For so long, so so so long, haven't watched TV meow."
Bai Ling wanted to say something else when Chi Xiaoyu, wearing a bathrobe, pulled Bai Ling's hand toward the bathroom.
"What, what are you doing?"
Bai Ling struggled urgently, but Chi Xiaoyu said in an unquestionable tone.
"You got dirty fighting corpse anomalies just now. You must take a bath!"
"I, I can wash myself."
"I'm afraid you won't wash clean. Sister will help you wash."
Chi Xiaoyu showed an auntie smile, undressed Bai Ling and entered the bathroom.
Seeing Chi Xiaoyu's naked body, Bai Ling quickly covered her eyes and chest. Feeling something leaked out below, she hurriedly covered there too. But two hands couldn't cover three places. Finally helpless, she could only cover her lower part and eyes.
The girl's cheeks were burning. She had never seen another woman's naked body before. Just that one glance made her face red like a ripe apple.
"What are you doing? Come here quickly."
【As expected, Lin Bai, you little virgin】
"I, I'll go out first. You wash first."
Seeing Lin Bai actually trying to open the door and leave, Chi Xiaoyu grabbed Bai Ling's arm, pulled her over, and put her in the bathtub.
"Don't rush to leave. Let sister wash you properly."
Speaking, Chi Xiaoyu began her actions, continuously applying body wash and shampoo on the girl's body, caressing her body, even helping wash the most private parts.
After Chi Xiaoyu's complete process, Bai Ling became dizzy and light-headed, her cheeks burning. She sat in the bathtub blinking her eyes, just staring blankly at Chi Xiaoyu.
"What are you spacing out for? It's your turn to help me wash."
"Ah? Ah? I help you wash?"
"What, unwilling?"
Bai Ling looked at Chi Xiaoyu's exposed body. She just stood there quietly without covering up, but her face showed a trace of barely perceptible shyness that flashed by.
