Instead, they would let her act together, and she would eliminate the danger for them.

She always seemed to think he needed to be protected, always forgetting that she was young and still a girl.

The two quickly moved out of the valley.

It was already late at night, and it was pitch black all around, with only the sound of the wind rustling through the trees and bushes.

He Wangyao felt that the scene in front of her was familiar. After thinking for a moment, she whispered, "Back then, in the wilderness of Sanzu River, I was also walking in the dark with Azhi. But at that time, I thought he was you, and I felt particularly safe."

"He told me to go first, and then the boss showed up to pick me up..."

A rustling sound came from the darkness. He Wangyao thought to herself, "No way, what I feared most has come to pass!"

Gu Xu suddenly stopped in his tracks, sensing danger.

Although he couldn't see anything in his field of vision, the unusual atmosphere made him feel like he was seeing a ghost on a train.

"Are there ghosts? How many? Where are they?" he asked He Wangyao, turning his head to look at her.

He Wangyao looked at the scene before her: "There are so many... they've surrounded us."

He was inwardly groaning. How could there be so many? Had they accidentally stirred up trouble again?

The ghosts looked at the two people in the encirclement with a mixture of fear and covetousness, and then attacked frantically in the next second.

He Wangyao threw out a handful of exorcism talismans, not caring whether they hit or not, and pulled Gu Xu towards the torn exit.

"Ah Xu, run!"

He ran for a while and looked back, only to find that the ghostly figures were constantly approaching, and several times they stretched out their long ghostly claws, trying to reach over Gu Xu and grab him.
