Chu Yuqi stared at Ming Zhuo in shock, "You actually know how to open the Gate of Hell?"
Her eyes held a twisted jealousy and resentment, which then transformed into deep apprehension and lingering fear.
She had just guessed that her butterfly wings had such a huge influence, blowing away many plot points.
Now it seems that Mingzhuo is definitely the one who's acting strangely! How could an ordinary person undergo such a dramatic transformation overnight and suddenly become a top-tier Xuan Master?
Since I can travel through books, others can too. It might even be an old monster possessing my body.
Mingzhuo ignored what Chu Yuqi was thinking. After performing the ritual to help the departed souls pass on, something fell to the ground at her feet.
She picked it up.
"Bone Jade!" Chu Yuqi's expression changed drastically. How could this thing be here?
She searched for a long time, never expecting that the item was hidden on these living dead!
"That's not yours, you can't take it!" In a moment of panic, Chu Yuqi took a few steps forward.
Just then, the door on the other side of carriage number 6 was opened.
Cheng Jingru rushed to the front, shouting, "Senior Brother Han, hurry up, this way!"
She stared in disbelief at the pile of corpses in the carriage and the people who had appeared on the other side of the carriage.
"Sister Yuqi, what are you doing here?"
Chu Yuqi's heart sank. The true owner of the Bone Jade, Cheng Jingru, had arrived.
She tried every means to avoid Cheng Jingru, wanting to follow the storyline on her own, but unexpectedly, Cheng Jingru still ended up getting caught up in the story.
——
Half an hour ago.
Cheng Jingru unexpectedly drew her magic sword and slashed out. The ghosts immediately scattered, seemingly afraid of her.
Her confidence soared, and she drew her sword to block Gu Xu's path.
The scene before her eyes shocked and devastated her. So this is what making a wish is all about?
"Stop right now! Don't make any wishes! The ones that respond to you aren't gods, they're demons!"
Cheng Jingru had long suspected that things were not simple; these ordinary people had been bewitched and could not be left unattended.
However, no one moved, and no one opened their eyes.
The ghosts greedily devoured her desires and life force, even giving her a strange, mocking look.
Cheng Jingru became even more anxious. She still wanted to save those people. She raised her magic sword, made hand seals, and chanted an incantation, then slashed at the head of one of the middle-aged men.
However, the next second, the middle-aged man pulled out a small knife and unexpectedly stabbed her.
"Get out of here, you bastard! Who gave you the right to meddle in other people's business?" The middle-aged man opened his eyes, looking like a madman.
The gods have already answered him! He will soon be able to turn his life around, become extremely wealthy and powerful, and trample all those who looked down on him underfoot!
What's the big deal about sacrificing the lives of a few blood relatives?
His family is so big, with many brothers, sisters and children, what does it matter if a few die?
Cheng Jingru was caught off guard and her arm was cut. She looked completely bewildered, as if she didn't understand what she had done wrong.
When the middle-aged man lunged at him again, Gu Xu had no choice but to intervene and snatch the knife from his hand.
Finally, someone couldn't help but open their eyes, and then saw the "god" above their head, and screamed in fright.
If one didn't see it, one could still deceive oneself and believe it was a deity. But the scene before one's eyes was too horrifying, beyond what an ordinary person could bear.
Several people immediately scrambled to escape, the ritual was interrupted, and the ghosts above their heads suddenly became venomous.
In the chaos, someone suddenly shouted, "It's her! She interrupted the wishing ceremony and angered the gods!"
Han Fenghua was stunned: "How can that be called a deity! It's clearly—"
"It's the gods! The gods are responding to me, promising to ensure my future prosperity!"
"I have nowhere else to turn, only the gods are willing to help me!"
"Yes, that's it!"
The dozen or so people in front of them had completely gone mad. They insisted that the things above their heads were gods, but they didn't even have the courage to look up.
Gu Xu watched coldly, knowing that these people were completely beyond redemption.
Sometimes, what you think is the human world may actually be hell.
Cheng Jingru shook her head: "That's not how it is, please don't be misled—"
A man spotted an opening and tried to snatch Cheng Jingru's magic sword.
She used a copper coin sword, which had no blade and could only slay ghosts, not harm people. It was almost stolen from her.
It wasn't until another copper coin sword appeared and pried open the man's hand that Cheng Jingru was able to successfully retrieve the magic sword.
Cheng Jingru was almost in tears: "Senior Brother Han, you are Senior Brother Han, right?"
Han Fenghua was somewhat surprised: "You actually know me?"
Cheng Jingru nodded: "I met Senior Brother Han once before... but at that time you were a disciple of the Xuanmen Sect, and I was just an ordinary person."
Han Fenghua smiled with interest: "But you're wrong, Junior Sister. I'm just an incompetent outer disciple. How can I compare to you, who is so favored by the Sect Leader?"
When he's not smiling, his features aren't as expressive; instead, he appears somewhat wooden.
Gu Xu thought inappropriately that she was completely different from He Wangyao.
This person was so noisy before, it always felt like he was acting, but now I've found the answer, that wasn't his true nature.
However, he had no interest in studying other people's nature. Instead, he quickly took action and kicked the man who was about to launch a sneak attack back.
Cheng Jingru's eyes widened: "Mr. Gu, you're amazing!"
Gu Xu ignored her, made a quick look, and walked straight in one of the directions.
"Mr. Gu, be careful!" Cheng Jingru hurriedly followed, throwing talismans to clear a path.
