In the courtyard, Mrs. Zhou and the Daoist priest froze in place after hearing Yan Hui's words.
It was quiet for a long time.
In the end, it was the sound of Old Lady Xiao's coughing that snapped Mrs. Zhou back to her senses. She shouted loudly: "Oh Heavens! This hussy dares to say such disrespectful things!" Saying this, she waddled forward two steps. "This old woman is going to teach you a lesson for Grandma Xiao......."
She hadn't finished speaking when Yan Hui coldly laughed. Yan Hui hadn't even moved when she saw Mrs. Zhou suddenly twist her foot. Mrs. Zhou unexpectedly fell down and cried out. It seemed like she sprained her foot. She sat on the ground and hollered, unable to get up.
Yan Hui's brow slightly twitched. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a rock roll off to the side.
Yan Hui originally planned to teach the human trafficker a lesson if she really did run up to take the jade......But to Yan Hui's surprise, a rock starred in the key moment.
Yan Hui turned her gaze toward Tian Yao. He was looking down and supporting the somewhat helpless and at a loss Old Lady Xiao. He really looked like a fool that didn't know anything.
The Daoist priest went to help Mrs. Zhou who was lying on the ground and yelling in pain. This time, Yan Hui kicked a rock and scored a direct hit on his knee. The Daoist priest cried out and fell in a pile with Mrs. Zhou.
Yan Hui was contemptuous toward the two: "Heheh, since Daoist priest is so powerful that you can extend one's life by ten years, then why don't you chant some scripture now? Cure your bones and the shrew's too."
Mrs. Zhou cursed toward the sky.
The Daoist priest actually didn't say a word. He pulled and dragged Mrs. Zhou toward the courtyard exit. He muttered in an undertone: "Let's go. This girl isn't to be trifled with."
Yan Hui watched the two stumble out. She ignored them and scoffed. Yan Hui turned her head, and she saw Tian Yao support the constantly coughing Grandma Xiao out of the courtyard and into her room. He didn't even look at Yan Hui.
From start to end, he didn't have a single reaction. However, Yan Hui saw that the ground where he was standing had some pits where stones used to be.
Yan Hui was actually shocked. She didn't expect the demon to help her in this kind of situation.
When night fell, the two stayed in the same room. Tian Yao sat in the corner to sleep as he had been doing. He didn't bring up the day's events. It was actually Yan Hui, who had been laying on the bed for a while, that couldn't resist asking: "About what happened today, you're actually not an unreasonable demon......even though you put a curse in the mantous."
