And when faced with that kind of guy, he had no way to fight back.
They won't even know how they died.
Of course, she might not actually die. She might become food for some monsters, or she might be treated as a shikigami. She might even face an even more tragic life, none of which Sakurajima Mai can accept!
But what could she do?
She could only look at Fang Yan beside her. This young man should have a solution, right?
"Fang Yan, junior classmate 907, please help me!" Mai Sakurajima took a deep breath and pleaded with Fang Yan, "You're the only person I can turn to right now!"
If she were still in normal circumstances, Mai Sakurajima would have called the police, but now, it wouldn't do any good! The police wouldn't even see her!
And most importantly, can the police really fight against these people with special abilities?
Before, wasn't I transformed into this state without anyone knowing?
"What benefit would I get?" Fang Yan looked at Sakurajima Mai speechlessly. Admittedly, he was lusting after Sakurajima Mai's body, but it was impossible for him to be busy with Sakurajima Mai's affairs.
Those hidden opponents are troublesome. What if they directly try to sabotage you and the people around you? Wouldn't that be very dangerous?
Those guys are not to be trifled with, and not many of them are kind-hearted men and women.
If they happen to meet, Fang Yan will immediately take action and kill the other party with a single sword strike.
But the situation is different now! He still needs to find the real culprit. He might as well spend that time walking around the streets at night and killing some demons and monsters!
"Huh!" Sakurajima Mai was also dumbfounded. She wanted a reward?
This left Mai Sakurajima speechless for a moment.
Pay? The other party doesn't seem to be short of money, does he? This is the best luxury apartment in the area. Fang Yan can live here, so his family obviously isn't short of money. And judging from the furniture and such, it doesn't seem to be simple. Just the TV and home theater alone are worth a year's income for me.
The other party is not short of money, and it seems that I can't give them anything else. Could it be that I am the one who is in trouble?
This made Mai Sakurajima's pretty face turn red. If Fang Yan helped her, wouldn't that be considered a hero saving a damsel in distress?
Thinking about it carefully, if Fang Yan were to pursue her after helping her, given his qualities and looks, and if he were to be more serious, she might not necessarily refuse.
As a young girl, she also has a girlish heart. She feels that it would be hard to refuse a savior who is also very good in every way. In fact, many girls (daba) fantasize about such a scenario.
But now, are we supposed to just put a price tag on ourselves?
Sure enough, the guy in front of me is straight.
"Looks like you want to get something for nothing?" Fang Yan looked at Sakurajima Mai speechlessly, his eyes seeming to say, "So this is the kind of person you are."
"No, no, no, I didn't!" Mai Sakurajima quickly waved her hands. What do you mean by "getting something for free"? That sounds so awful. And how can you call something involving a beautiful girl "getting something for free"?
Fang Yan silently looked at Sakurajima Mai, giving her a look that said, "I'm just watching you quietly, see how you're going to try to justify yourself."
"Um, could you give me some time to think about it?" Mai Sakurajima asked Fang Yan after hesitating for a moment.
“Sure, go ahead!” Fang Yan did not refuse. “However, I advise you to make a choice as soon as possible, otherwise the other party may achieve their goal, and it will be too late to make amends then.”
And I don't know what happens to a soul if it leaves the body for too long!
"Okay!" Sakurajima Mai was conflicted. Why did she feel like the man in front of her was threatening her?
She silently consulted the books, wanting to learn more. "The books say that spirits have excellent talent for cultivation?"
"I think so? After all, I hadn't seen any ghosts or monsters before you, only other kinds. But you seem to be quite lucky. This area hasn't been very peaceful lately; I've encountered some kind of problem almost every day."
"You're the best food for them, but you miraculously survived, which is quite remarkable!" Fang Yan lazily lay on the sofa, looking at his phone as he complained.
"Could you teach me? You must be slaying demons, right? If you teach me, I can help you too!" Mai Sakurajima said, looking at Fang Yan with anticipation.
It's better to rely on yourself than on others. Since you have great talent, why not work hard to cultivate it and then seek revenge?
However, Sakurajima Mai was met with a look from Fang Yan that said, "Are you dreaming?" Teaching Sakurajima Mai? Did he have the time to do that?
Seeing Fang Yan's attitude, Sakurajima Mai was speechless. She kept flipping through the encyclopedia, and after a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "I will become your shikigami, but you must give me fair respect!"
Chapter 80
"Shikigami?" Fang Yan was also visibly taken aback. He hadn't expected Sakurajima Mai to be so proactive.
However, Fang Yan quickly realized that Sakurajima Mai seemed to have no other choice but to do this.
After all, it's very dangerous for her to be a spirit now. If she gets caught by some demons or monsters, she won't even know how she died. Moreover, there are other reasons why she became a spirit this time. It's obvious that those people are definitely hostile towards her. Nowadays, Mai Sakurajima can't even trust her own mother.
Under these circumstances, it seems that she can only find herself.
Fang Yan stroked his chin. In fact, at first, he wanted to use Sakurajima Mai more as a tool. Theoretically speaking, spirits have a great attraction to demons and monsters, especially spirits like Sakurajima Mai who have little power.
He originally wanted Sakurajima Mai to lure out the monsters, and then he would be in charge of harvesting them.
But now it seems that, under his "patient guidance," Sakurajima Mai actually wants to become his shikigami, which doesn't seem so bad at all!
He didn't know how things would turn out in the future, but if possible, Fang Yan didn't want to fight alone; having some helpers would be good.
Mai Sakurajima's ability to become a spirit clearly indicates a special talent. Although Fang Yan doesn't yet know exactly what that talent is, it's enough that she's willing to have someone plot against her, a minor celebrity.
"Hmm! Look at this!" Mai Sakurajima turned to a page in the Amazing Book, which contained information about various contracts. Among them were all kinds of unfair contracts, as well as some relatively fair contracts. Fang Yan even saw some rather evil contract methods.
For example, contractors can extract the power of their contractors for their own use, but these things also have significant side effects.
Fang Yan quickly saw the content that Sakurajima Mai had indicated. It was a relatively fair arrangement: Fang Yan needed to protect Sakurajima Mai's safety, help her become stronger, and ensure that she didn't do anything she was unwilling to do.
Mai Sakurajima, on the other hand, is required to become Fang Yan's shikigami, fight for Fang Yan, not betray Fang Yan's interests, and take care of Fang Yan's daily life.
Looking at this content, Fang Yan touched his chin. Forcing Sakurajima Mai to do something she didn't want to do was something Fang Yan hadn't really thought about much.
Although he could do something to spirits, Fang Yan said he wasn't that kind of tasteless man.
Even if she wanted a girl, she would have used some tricks, and Erina Nakiri wouldn't be as naive as she is now.
"You don't think I'm going to do anything to you, do you?" Fang Yan had basically agreed in his heart, but he still couldn't help but complain.
“There’s no other way. Even if I have to sell myself, I have to get a good price, right? At least I don’t dislike you that much!” Mai Sakurajima said with a wry smile. “Besides, if you had any other intentions towards me, you wouldn’t have signed a contract with me in the first place.”
Fang Yan remained silent for a while. This could be considered a veiled test. Although the chances of him scheming against Sakurajima Mai seemed very low, he still had to be cautious. After all, she wasn't some naive young girl.
The entertainment industry is the biggest cesspool!
Defenses can not do without!
Although Mai Sakurajima felt that even if she disagreed, Fang Yan could still force her to sign a contract.

“I can understand your doubts and caution, but I can also understand your actions!” Fang Yan said after thinking for a moment.
After all, this is just a tool for him; he'll need Mai Sakurajima to attract those ghosts later!
"Then let's do it!" Hearing Fang Yan's words, Sakurajima Mai breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know what the future would hold, but as things stood, it was much better than the worst possible outcome.
Fang Yan wasn't someone who knew nothing. Since he was willing to take me in, he must have some reason to be so confident. It seemed that I didn't need to worry about being kidnapped by any strange people.
......... 0 .......
Moreover, if it were Fang Yan, she didn't seem to dislike him that much. At least, Sakurajima Mai was quite satisfied with his appearance, his attitude after initial contact, and his personality.
Even without any special abilities, such a person might still be seen as a prince charming in school.
This seems like a good idea!
Mai Sakurajima gave a bitter laugh to herself. Ever since she guessed that she might have been sold by her mother, she didn't know how to face the world anymore.
"Alright then, let's do it according to the contract!" Following Jing Dian's instructions, Fang Yan drew a piece of paper made of energy on his hand, covered with dense golden characters. Fang Yan said to Sakurajima Mai, "Just place your hand on top, and don't resist!"
"Okay!" Mai Sakurajima took a deep breath, stared at the "paper" for a while, and then placed her hand on it. The energy then turned into a golden light and entered Mai Sakurajima's body.
After briefly assessing her current situation, Mai Sakurajima looked intently at Fang Yan and said, "Do you need to call me master now?"
Chapter 81
Seemingly aware that her current situation was unchangeable, Mai Sakurajima emphasized the word "master," and Fang Yan even detected a hint of provocation in it. Was this woman determined to do something drastic?
No, Fang Yan quickly realized that Sakurajima Mai wasn't giving up on herself, but rather she was confident that she couldn't do anything to her. After all, he really couldn't do anything to her unless Sakurajima Mai agreed.
Thinking about this, Fang Yan was also furious. Why is it that when other people become undead knights, they get high-quality female ghosts to give them away for free, but on his side, it's like this?
"No need, just call me Fang Yan, '907' or junior brother are fine!" Fang Yan sighed softly, secretly praising himself for being such a good person. If it were anyone else, Sakurajima Mai would probably have learned what ABCD meant!
Men are not men she can provoke at will!
"Junior?" Sakurajima Mai looked thoughtful, then looked at Fang Yan with a strange expression.
"Don't look at me like that. If I really wanted to do something to you, you couldn't resist before. Believe me, one phone call from me and your mother will send you right here!" Fang Yan said, somewhat annoyed by Mai Sakurajima's gaze.
Upon hearing Fang Yan mention her mother, Sakurajima Mai fell silent, clearly still unable to recover from the betrayal by her closest person.
As for Fang Yan's words, Mai Sakurajima did not question them. With such abilities, would it be difficult for someone to make money?
"By the way, how are you going to help me? Shouldn't you be teaching me how to train now? As your shikigami, I'm not qualified if I don't have combat power!" Fortunately, Mai Sakurajima quickly recovered and looked at Fang Yan with burning eyes.
"Are you sure you want me to teach you now?" Fang Yan's expression turned strange as he looked at Sakurajima Mai.
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Mai Sakurajima asked back, "You promised me you'd help me become stronger! Are you trying to go back on your word?"
“Of course not!” Fang Yan shook his head slightly: “Spiritual bodies are very special. According to the introduction, spiritual bodies can cultivate like humans, and even cultivate human techniques, which is true. But your current situation is different from that of humans. Do you understand the meridians of the human body?”
Even if the sacred text contains meridian diagrams, who can guarantee that a spirit's meridians are the same as a human's?
"Then what should we do?" Mai Sakurajima was completely shocked. In her opinion, the key now was whether she could improve her strength, and the rest didn't seem to be very important.
"I do know some things, but the key is that you'll never agree to it!" Fang Yan said, shrugging.
Mai Sakurajima's expression shifted between light and dark upon hearing this. How could she not understand Fang Yan's meaning? She couldn't understand her own meridians by looking at the diagram, and Fang Yan didn't know whether the condition of a spirit body was the same as that of a human's meridians.
To confirm this, Fang Yan simply helped her study the meridians on Sakurajima Mai's body.
But how could Mai Sakurajima accept something like this so easily? After all, she's a woman, you know?
If she could, Mai Sakurajima would love to smash Fang Yan's handsome face with her little fists right now.
"This is also the main reason why family traditions are often not passed down to girls!" Fang Yan continued to explain, "Unless the mother or someone else has a tradition, or the girl is taught the tradition at a very young age!"
Mai Sakurajima fell silent for a moment. At this moment, she felt a sense of resistance. After all, she wasn't very familiar with Fang Yan, and she couldn't accept such close contact with him...
