As a laid-off reemployed worker, Yun Jian was accidentally swept into a real-life survival game when she had nowhere else to turn. She was also 'lucky' enough to acquire a special attribute...
Upon hearing this, Mr. Luo turned around.
He remembered that the two of them had just said that Yun Jian had stolen the stargazer's horoscope.
Since the birth chart has been claimed by someone else...
"Can you sense where we are?"
The stargazer closed his eyes and paused for a while before saying, "I can only sense the general direction; it's to the east, about thirty miles from here."
Mr. Luo smiled and said, "That's enough."
He summoned several charred corpses and said, "Go to the east and search for Yun Jian and the others. Be quick."
After saying that, he went out as well, transformed back into his original charred corpse form, flapped his wings and took to the air, flying rapidly eastward.
Luo Tangping and the stargazer immediately felt the pressure ease. They wiped the sweat from their foreheads and slumped to the ground.
Luo Tangping couldn't help but laugh. Thank goodness, that plague god is finally gone!
He stood up, ready to go out and check on the monster.
However, before they could even leave the yurt, they were stopped by two outstretched black claws.
"Mr. Luo said you cannot leave here."
Luo Tangping quickly took a step back, afraid that the fine threads on those two claws would get on his body. He lowered his head, looking distressed.
That person had no intention of leaving!
Only then did Luo Tangping give up and accept the fact that Shengtian had changed hands.
The stargazer stumbled over, shouting, "My astrolabe! I want my astrolabe! Get out of my way, I need to get my astrolabe back!"
Even with those two black claws blocking his way, he seemed not to see them and tried to walk straight through.
They were brothers who had fought side by side, so even though Luo Tangping had his grievances against him, he couldn't help but reach out and pull him back. "Don't go over there. If you get hurt by their claws, you'll die."
However, the stargazer seemed not to hear him, repeatedly chanting, "Kill Yunjian, steal the star chart!"
“Stargazers!” Luo Tangping shouted.
"Grab the star chart..."
The stargazers were still muttering to themselves, and their gazes were not even fixed on Luo Tangping.
Luo Tangping's heart skipped a beat, but his tone softened. "A stargazer?"
"My birth chart..."
Luo Tangping was struck dumb; he found it hard to accept—the stargazer had gone mad.
On the other side, Yun Jian and the others hadn't gone far when Lü Ping began to warn, "There's a burnt smell; there's likely a charred corpse nearby."
Yun Jian warned the group to be on guard, mainly because there were no obstacles nearby, making it difficult to hide.
Bai Yu thought for a moment and asked, "Did someone from the Dark Gang leak our location?"
Yun shook his head.
"It's uncertain; it could also be due to the astrological chart."
When the horoscope changes hands, the stargazer will definitely sense it.
The group looked puzzled, and couldn't help but think of the scene in the Mirror of Peeping.
His gaze couldn't help but sweep over Bai Yu.
Unable to bear it any longer, Bai Yu simply burrowed underground. "I'll hide underground first and avoid them, then you won't be distracted, right?"
After saying that, he pulled the fourth brother down, saying, "You weakling, come and hide with me."
Fourth Brother: "..."
Bai Yu's love is both touching and speechless.
Soon, the large group of charred corpses appeared. Yun Jian had never thought they looked so much like crows.
It's both plentiful and unlucky.
She took out a charged ball and, while moving through the charred corpses, used the charged ball to shock them.
Mr. Luo was furious when he saw these energy storage spheres.
Back then, these energy storage spheres caused harm to so many of his subordinates.
Cheng Cheng's medicine couldn't kill the charred corpses, but their energy storage balls were their only nemesis.
The existence of the energy storage sphere was a threat to their charred corpses, so he naturally couldn't let Yun Jian and the others go.
Yun Jian's ruthless reputation still circulates among the charred corpses. Wherever she goes, the charred corpses will consciously keep their distance from her.
He dared not get too close, but he also dared not go too far, so he just supported her at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
Feeling stifled, Yun remembered that she still had some unused white mist in her backpack, so she simply released it.
Sure enough, the charred corpses couldn't help but retreat when they came into contact with the white mist.
Yun Jian was enveloped in white mist, and didn't even need to do anything.
Mr. Luo was furious when he saw this.
They're all a bunch of useless trash. They're so scared of a mere white mist!
He flapped his wings, swooped down to the white mist, and suddenly raised his hand, a thin thread disappearing into the mist.
"See you in the clouds!"
"Sister Yun, be careful!"
When Lü Ping and Xiao Zhen saw this, they both shouted out.
The white-nosed creature sensed the familiar aura and its eyes widened in fury. It rushed into the white mist, reaching out to grab it, but only managed to grasp the tail of a thin thread.
However, with the slightest movement, the filament slipped from his hand.
White Nose was startled, and when it tried to grab it again, the thin thread had already disappeared.
"ah--"
A muffled groan came from within the white mist, and everyone's heart tightened.
"Yun Jian?" Lü Ping pushed aside the charred corpses that lunged at him and moved toward the white mist.
"Sister Yun!" Xiao Zhen burst into tears.
They clearly remembered that in that peering mirror, Mr. Luo had said that once caught in his fine silk, there was no way to recover.
Moreover, they were also aware that Mr. Luo was not an ordinary charred corpse; his fine threads were definitely more powerful than those of an ordinary charred corpse.
The white-nosed man plunged straight into the center of the white mist and pulled the person out.
Seeing that he had succeeded in obtaining his fine threads, Mr. Luo stopped letting the charred corpse attack.
Only by stopping can we properly negotiate terms.
His gaze was fixed on the white-nosed man who had come out carrying someone. He clicked his tongue. He had good talent and had already completed his transformation with the divine flower. But... how did he end up defecting to the enemy?
What a waste of such a promising talent.
Mr. Luo looked down and was about to speak when he suddenly froze, as if someone had grabbed his throat.
How come it was Xisi who assassinated Bai Yu?
He could see it clearly at the time; he could see a person in the white mist.
However, that's not important.
It doesn't matter who gets hurt, as long as they can be threatened.
He sneered, "Once you're hit by my fine threads, no matter what method you use, you're powerless to save them! If you don't want Bai Yu to become a charred corpse, Yun Jian, bring all the divine flowers to Sheng Tian to find me."
After saying that, he laughed loudly and left.
Lu Ping and the others also recovered from their surprise.
Xiao Zhen leaned closer, wanting to touch Bai Yu's wound but afraid of hurting him: "Why is it you? Didn't I tell you to hide underground and not come out? Or did those thin threads chase you underground and prick you?"
Lu Ping pursed his lips and simply said, "We will find a way to save you."
Bai Yu gritted his teeth, first releasing the fourth brother from underground, then laughed and said, "Hey, isn't this good? It just proves that the Dark Gang really can predict the future! Besides, it's better for me to be injured than for Yun Jian to be injured. If she's injured, we'll be without a leader, and it would be so painful if we were wiped out by the charred corpses."
"Besides, if Yun Jian gets hurt, we'll definitely have to find a way to save her. But if I get hurt, it'll be you guys who will suffer. I'll get to have you take care of me, so I'm the one who benefits!"
The fourth brother slapped Bai Yu on the shoulder, "I told you I'd go block that thin thread, why did you go yourself?"
Bai Yu simply lay comfortably on the ground, ignoring Lao Si's complaints, and instead started to act shamelessly: "I'm injured now, so please be careful. If you make my injury worse, how can you live with yourself?"
