âWu Taotao! â Yuan Wu couldnât help but stood up, clenching his fists.
Wu Taotao glanced at him. âOh, itâs our Senior Colonel Yuan. If only you accepted my confession. I wouldnât have killed Song Tongtong out of jealousy. You must be devastated to see the love of your life die! But Iâve seen my share of men since I came to the Song family, and a lot of them are much better suited than you. I have long since moved on.â
âAdjutant Liang! â Old Master Songâs voice thundered, filled with a rage of unprecedented measures. âSomebody arrest her!â
Wu Taotao lowered her head, chuckling as if she just heard something amusing. âArrest me? â
âWe have the numbers, why canât we?â Helian Weiwei calmly taunted.
Raising her gaze, Wu Taotao glared at Helian Weiwei, âHonestly, you really are a smart girl, with a pretty face too. I probably wouldnât be able to deal with you alone...but, hehehe, hahaha, Chi, how long are you gonna stand there and watch?â
Chi?
No one knew who Wu Taotao was talking to.
But judging by the way she looked, it seemed like there really was someone else here besides them.
No.
That probably wasnât a person.
Because they were clearly alone in the hall!
What could it be?
What exactly was the Chi that Wu Taotao was talking about?
Heaven-Master Zhang suddenly felt a chill on his neck, as if something was standing behind him.
Drip, drip..
Raindrops were falling?
What was happening?
Why were the rain leaking in?
Everyone looked up at the ceiling.
The dead Wu Fan stared at them with his eyes wide open.
And the raindrops they thought they heard, were the blood dripping from his body.
âGhost, ghost! â Heaven-Master Zhang fell to the ground, petrified.
Meanwhile, all color drained from Xiao Qingâs face.
Already a corpse, Wu Fanâs movements felt stiff as he raised his hand. It was that stiffness, however, that got everyone frozen on the spot.
Helian Weiweiâs reasoning could explain a lot of things.
But what could explain this scene in front of them right now?
Ghost, a a real ghost!
Jing Zifeng was the first to make a move, drawing his sword swiftly.
Almost immediately, he heard Wu fan let out a ghostâs vicious screech.
Wu Fan grabbed at Heaven-Master Zhang, the closest target.
To avoid being possessed, Jing Zifeng was the first to attack, cutting off Wu Fanâs arm whole.
Wu Fan opened his mouth, which was filled with darkness.
He seemed to be afraid of the youthâs sword, turning and flying out of the villa instead.
Of course, Jing Zifeng wouldnât let him escape. Clutching his sword, he went after him immediately.
Only then did Heaven-Master Zhang breath a heavy sigh of relief.
However, just when everyone thought that it was over...
Wu Taotao curled her lips and smiled again. âAiya, Chi, youâre so bright. You actually thought of this method to lure that Yin-Yang Master away.â
That Chi... was still here? !
This time, it wasnât just Heaven-Master Zhang. Even Old Master Songâs heart trembled slightly.
Cold sweat flowed down his back uncontrollably.
Drip, drip..
The unsettling sound of water started again.
The flickering candlelight on the dining table somehow turned a strange, bloody hue.
It was said that only when someone died in the house, would such a candlelight appear.
The entire villa was eerily empty.
Xiao Qing wrapped her arms around her head in fear.
A cloud of black fog gushed out from behind Wu Taotao, and amidst that fog, a man emerged. The manâs face was extremely ugly, with long, black nails sparkling with fresh blood. âThis amount of food is really a pleasant surprise. â
Wu Tongtong glanced at Xiao Qingâs trembling face, satisfied. âNone of you would have thought of this, right? I donât care who comes to investigate, and Iâm care even less about those Yin-Yang Masters. Because no matter how many people show up, theyâll all just end up as food for Chi. â
Hearing this, the man licked his lower lip. His blood-red eyes rolled around, and his gaze fixed on Helian Weiweiâs body. âHow fragrant. Oh, I can only imagine how good itâd taste if I were to crush this soul.â
âThen what are you waiting for?â Wu Tong Tong coldly said coldly. âKill her.â
She thought that her words would make Helian Weiweiâs expression shift, revealing a fear similar to Xiao Qingâs. After all, this womanâs wit really bothered her.
But Wu Tong Tong didnât expect that,
She smiled instead.
With her low and pleasant voice, she said, âHim? You think he can kill me?â
Wu Tongtong also started to smile, her tone filled with pride. âI know you know magic, but who do you think Chi is? Even if youâve got some Yin-Yang Dao skill, Chi can still cut off your soul! â
âOh? â Helian Weiwei raised her right hand, and the wind suddenly changed direction. âThen letâs try it and see whoâd cut off who?â
âIt smells so good, it really smells so good!â Exposed to Helian Weiweiâs aura, that pair of eyes on Chi had long sunken into madness. He lashed out with his black nails, grasping at Helian Weiwei.
However, before he could even get close, a figure dashed out and blocked his way.
âYou... â Chi stared at his constrained arm, and before he could even speak,
There was a loud bang.
His entire body was kicked over and fell heavily on the ground.
He could sense a piercing pain coming from his hands.
Chi raised his head immediately, glaring at the culprit.
Baili Jiajue stood firm, his tall and slender figure wrapped in military uniform. Black feathers hung down to his side, making him look like a noble warlord. As surreal as it seems, his entire person fused with the darkness. âI really donât like people that peering at my soul in that manner. â
âYou, you are... â Chiâs eyes slowly widened. Fear permeated every inch of his body, and a name hung at the tip of his tongue.
But Baili Jiajue would never let anyone touch his pet.
Crack!
Chiâs arm was forcefully broken.
On the other side, Wu Taotaoâs complexion shifted. âChi! â
What was going on?
It shouldnât have been like this!
How could there be anyone in the world that could hurt Chi!
Wu Taotao seemed to have thought of something. She took out a piece of paper and drew on it frantically with the blood on her hand.
But it still had no effect!
âHow could this be? â Wu Taotao pulled at that piece of paper like she was going crazy!
Afterwards, she seemed to come to a conclusion and turned towards Helian Weiwei. âWho exactly are you guys! â
âUS? â Helian Weiwei laughed lightly. âThe Yin-Yang Master You invited of course. â
Wu Taotaoâs eyes turned a furious red. âIt canât be that simple! No one can hurt Chi like that! â
âWhyâs that impossible? â Helian Weiwei asked lazily. âDear Wu Taotao, you are not the only one who can sign a contract. â
