Even though he knew that it wasn’t the real Lu Miao, he couldn’t remain indifferent when he saw the tragic state of her death.
“That’s a succubus. It can see into your inner thoughts and pretend to be the person you love the most to charm you. That dagger was her horn, and those who were stabbed would become her slaves.”
Lu Miao explained simply. She bent down and picked up the bone dagger on the ground.” It’s also an extremely rare magic weapon and medicinal herb.”
Her other hand exerted a little force, wanting to pull out something to clean the blood on the dagger, but she realized that her hand was tightly gripped by Gu Shiyan. His originally warm palm was now cold, and there was a little sweat seeping out.
Just as she was about to speak, Gu Shiyan suddenly pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.
“Fortunately, I didn’t believe her.”
Lu Miao’s hands were busy, so she could only nod her head in front of him to comfort him.” Don’t worry, I believe you. Your judgment is accurate and decisive.”
Feeling the real warmth in his arms, Gu Shiyan slowly let go of her.”Let’s go.”
Lu Miao looked at him helplessly.” You can let go now. I’ll clean this up.””
Gu Shiyan decisively reached out his other hand to take the dirty dagger and stuffed it into his expensive coat pocket without any disdain.
“This painting is so dangerous. Of course I have to hold you tight to be safe.”
Lu Miao paused for a moment. She wanted to say that the succubus was actually not that dangerous after she died, but Gu Shiyan did not look afraid of danger at all. She knew that he probably just wanted to hold hands, so she let him be and pulled him along the path in the forest.
Before she walked far, she met a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes who was hugging a peach blossom tree and smiling. He was shouting something precious while kissing the tree trunk from time to time.
“It’s President Shen from Pacific Century.” Gu Shiyan said.
Lu Miao said,” This peach blossom forest is the succubus ‘nest. There are still traces of the succubus’ aura on the trees. Once I destroy this painting, they will wake up.”
The two of them bumped into a few familiar figures as they walked forward. After passing through the peach forest, they saw a lively market. There were many small vendors selling their wares by the roadside. The sauce-flavored pork knuckles were steaming hot, and the fragrance was alluring. In the restaurant, waves of wine fragrance floated out. It was as if they were really in an ancient market.
However, these people all had stiff expressions on their faces, as if they were peddling machines.
A child accidentally fell to the ground and cried expressionlessly as he reached out to them, wanting them to pick him up.
Lu Miao ignored him and turned her head to look around.
In the stream next to them, the boatman rowed his boat across the arch bridge.
A light breeze blew past, and a corner of the curtain in front of the cabin was lifted. Gu Jinxi’s familiar face flashed past.
He had finally found it!
Lu Miao raised her hand and threw a talisman at the cabin. Gu Jinxi, who was originally smiling foolishly, looked at the jade wine pot in his hand in a daze.
What the hell? Was he dreaming?
Seeing that the small boat was about to leave, Lu Miao snorted.” Gu Jinxi.”
Hearing Lu Miao’s voice, Gu Jinxi instantly woke up. He immediately looked up in the direction of the voice.
Seeing that it was Lu Miao, she happily called out to Second Sister-in-law, ran out of the cabin, and jumped back onto the shore.
At the same time, the noisy crowd suddenly quieted down. The street vendors and pedestrians all turned their heads and looked at Lu Miao strangely. The crowd formed a circle and slowly approached them.
In the distant sky, a black cloud was rapidly spreading towards them.
With a sharp bird cry, Gu Shiyan finally saw clearly that there were no black clouds. It was clearly a group of monsters with human heads and bird bodies. Their huge wings covered the sky as they swooped down towards them.
Lu Miao took out a pen and a piece of talisman paper from somewhere. She quickly drew a few strokes on the talisman paper and threw it into the air.
The talisman turned into a beautiful red bird with long wings. It was covered in flames as it rushed towards the flock of birds that covered the sky.
Gu Jinxi was dumbfounded. He knew that his second sister-in-law was powerful, but he did not expect her to be so exaggerated. This was the first time he had seen Lu Miao use a spell. She was too cool!
The crowd that was originally slow suddenly became restless, and one by one, they rushed towards them with their sharp teeth exposed.
Gu Shiyan quickly pulled out the horn of the succubus from his pocket and waved his hand to slash at the crowd that was pouncing on Lu Miao. The people who were slashed instantly turned into ashes..
