any skills, right She must have been carefully chosen from among many.“What use does it have It’s not that she betrayed Long Xiaogē, so they say a woman's heart is like the ocean floor—unfathomable…...That skull of the ram was handled by us, my brother has already removed the sinister qi that stained it.

She immediately wanted to make a deal with me, saying that I would always have need of her in the future and could she have whatever was on Jiang Qiyun's body to treat her severe allergies.

Sometimes, fate is a truly wondrous chain of events. Why would you meet a stranger in the vast sea of people and have them become your lifelong companion Why would a witch born with the gift of foresight be unable to become a true woman and be severely allergic to negative energy, transforming into something terrifying upon contact

These causes and effects are intricately linked, yin and yang, the five elements, interacting in a cycle of creation and destruction. No one can act with impunity or control everything single-handedly.

I stood by the window, watching Xi Linzhou stomp on the man in a vengeful rage. The man let out muffled howls while simultaneously emitting a sound of twisted pleasure.

Long Xiaoge grew up watching unusual corpses. He remained unmoved by these scenes.

I couldn't stand it any longer, my older brother stepped in to stop it: "Enough, hero, don't push yourself."

Xi Linzhou stomped with unconcealed anger, the man dodged while grinning: "Junior Sister… you won't be able to step on me like that…"

Xi Linzhou sneered and stomped down hard, her movement was too big and it pulled at the wound on her back, she winced in pain.

My brother laughed cruelly, "I told you so, hahaha… Be careful of after-effects, in the future you'll have to wear diapers everywhere you go, hahaha!"

Xi Linzhou was frightened by my brother. She took her foot back and said to the man, "I'll go before Master and tell him about your bravery. Let's see how Master makes you die!"

She smoothed down her tangled red hair and turned to look at me through the window, her eyes widening in surprise: “......Mu Xia Qiao”

My brother stepped in front of her and asked, "What's going on here Tell us."

Xi Linzhou let out a cold snort and said, “I haven't seen Master yet, things like exorcism don't concern me! I sneaked in yesterday to take a look, and this guy caught me. Just wait until I get my hands on him.”

She kicked the man hard in the back of the neck with an expression of unyielding hatred. His head slammed against the bed leg with a thud and he passed out.

My brother laughed heartlessly, “Pity this big brother.”

"If I ever turn back, old lady will have his head!" Xi Lingzhou supported the doorframe and kicked out.

She put on a brave face, but her legs trembled as she walked.

We followed her step by step to the main house in the backyard. As we reached outside the courtyard of the main house, we saw the female apprentice surnamed Zhao with two men carrying out a bound sack.

Xi Linzhou immediately hid, we were puzzled, wasn't that her senior sister What was she hiding for

“She’s my senior sister, the second most powerful person after Master—she’s also the cruellest.” Xi Lingzhou frowned. “She should be dealing with those contaminated by corpse poison.”

What to do How to deal with it Stuffed in a sack and buried!

“What is she planning to do We have antidotes here. Quickly, lead us to your master.” I said to her.

She looked back at me: "Are you here to rescue me"

"Nonsense."

"That's strange... There's nothing in it for me, why are you here to save us" she frowned. "Don't think that by showing a little kindness I'll help you with your spirit communication, I'll only perform the ritual if you give me what I want."

I snorted. “In your dreams.”

She crossed her arms and said, "I really don't understand what you mind. If you think hair and nails are too sensitive to give, then just give me some blood, right"

“You want my blood, fine. But his won’t do.” I gave her a withering look. This woman was truly insane.

That woman surnamed Zhao directed people to hang a sack in a small room. Inside that room, someone was performing a ritual, seemingly an exorcism.

Xi Linzhou secretly went to the main courtyard, making us act like thieves.

She was discovered by that Zhao woman, who roared, "What are you doing!"

Xi Lingzhou turned back and said, "Senior Sister, it's me."

Zhao Jie's face turned cold: "What are you doing here! Get back and behave yourself! Look at all the red spots on your body, it's disgusting!"

Xi Lingzhou let out a snort: "I'm going to report you to Master. Mind your own business!"

“You can’t come in! The master is performing a ritual!” She blocked our path with two male disciples.

"Master, why can't I go in I've been in there before! What are you doing Are you trying to take advantage of the situation and undermine Master I know you've coveted Master's artifacts for a long time," Xi Linzhou shouted at her.

"Shut your mouth! The master is performing a ritual, I'm in charge of everything for now. This has nothing to do with you. You're only useful when you can channel spirits. Now go and stay out of the way!" Zhao Jie roared at her mercilessly.

I couldn't help but speak up: "Don't waste time! We can help with the antidote, but we have to be quick. There isn't much time to waste here!"

Zhao Jie stared at me and said, "You You are... Mu Xiao Qiao"

I nodded. "Hurry up, don't increase the casualties. Is there something wrong with Old Mrs. Ma If she's in trouble, let's go help her detoxify first—"

Zhao Jie coldly stared at me: "You guys are so kind If you want to help... first, try helping a disciple remove the poison. He's dying soon, and if he dies, it'll be troublesome!"

I frowned, "What do you mean, test us out first on someone"

My brother shouted, "Do you need to take a professional skills test to come and save someone Then you're just going to die here!"

Zhao Jie sneered, "It's wise to be cautious. Who knows if you have ulterior motives... There aren't many good people in this circle."

"Damn it, you witches deserve to be single! Each one of you is more complicated than the last! I knew we should have gone to Qingyu Taoist Temple instead. It's your life or death!" My brother complained.

He actually knew very well that he couldn't act out of anger, because this was the city where we lived. If someone really died and the corpse poison spread, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Sister Zhao didn't want to be too harsh, so she took a step back and said, "How about this... You guys save the disciple who is about to die first. After all, it would be very troublesome if he died. My master is fine for now, Mu Xia Qiao and my junior sister can go in, but the gentlemen cannot enter for the time being. My master isn't convenient..."

A strange smile played on her lips.hillside...Where are there any more small cliffs!There's actually a sheer cliff behind me! And there's a babbling stream at the bottom of the cliff!My goodness, I just slid down a slope!And the two of...
