The bloody death was particularly cruel, and at just one glance, Rabbit's heart began to pound wildly.
What horrified Rabbit even more was that the human with hands covered in rabbit blood discovered it.
All that could be seen was half of the human's face bathed in sunlight, radiating a condescending scrutiny, while the other half remained hidden in shadow, the mocking curve of its lips sending chills down the rabbit's spine.
The man was holding a knife in his hand, and skillfully slashed open the skin of the second uncle's wife's younger brother.
Tick-tock, tick-tock.
Crimson blood flowed on the earth.
The man glanced at him sideways, his eyes filled with three parts indifference, three parts mockery, and four parts nonchalance.
It was as if, in their eyes, the rabbit clan was nothing more than ants that could be crushed at will.
It cannot see the future of the rabbit race.
The future is bleak; Heaven is against us!
I hate it, I hate it so much.
My rabbits, I'm done living! Take it easy on your way to the underworld, because I'm coming to find you.
A mournful cry echoed in the rabbit's heart. Under that gaze, the rabbit's heart leaped out of its chest, its body convulsed, and it collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
He was scared to death.
ha?
Lu Wu, unaware that she had a two-toned face and fan-shaped patterns in her eyes, was completely bewildered.
How did this rabbit die?
In the past two days, the mother fox has informed the beasts of her idea to leave with the demon beasts, and all the willing beasts have signed up.
There are many kinds of creatures, some flying in the sky, some crawling on the ground, and some swimming in the water.
The rabbits were the only ones I didn't see.
Just then, a little white rabbit appeared here. Lu Wu was thinking of asking it if it would like to come with him in order to maintain the ecological balance in the cave, but for some reason, the rabbit just lay there dead.
Rabbits are timid, but this is way too timid.
Lu Wu smacked her lips, regretfully taking the rabbit over and placing it in the rabbit family so that the family could reunite.
The rabbit's exterior was brushed until shiny, then scorched with flame.
The charcoal fire is heating up, and the spices are mixed with oils, subtly nourishing everything.
The primal fragrance of the fat rushed into their lungs, instantly invigorating the cultivators who were fighting the ghosts.
"Charge! Kill the demons and eat rabbit heads!"
One of the disciples shouted and charged into the ghosts with a gun, activating his Whirlwind Boy mode and wreaking havoc.
The others were not to be outdone, and they used their best skills to drastically reduce the number of ghosts.
Mr. Lu's delicious food is the best remedy.
Under their relentless attacks, the ghosts' movements slowed down considerably.
"Huh."
Jiang Yunhe's attacks temporarily ceased. He wondered if it was just his imagination, but the reason those ghosts were moving slowly was not because they were afraid of being killed, but because their attention had been diverted.
The root cause is... Boss Lu.
"Look, they're not fighting back anymore."
A disciple of the Divine Spear Sect thrust his spear into the monster's abdomen, expecting it to fight back fiercely. However, the monster ignored the wound and staggered towards a certain spot.
That was where Lu Wu was.
"Oh no, their target is Boss Lu. We can't let them get close to Boss Lu."
"Brothers, let's go!"
Everyone was furious.
You shameless bastards, you can beat us up all you want, but you even have designs on Boss Lu! Aren't you trying to rip out their little livers?
The aunt can tolerate it, but the uncle cannot.
With the enraged buff successfully applied, the group's murderous aura became even more terrifying.
Once the attack was launched, those ghosts had no chance of escaping.
But they didn't escape either.
They completely ignored the existence of those people, leaving only one goal: to get to Lu Wu's side.
Lu Wu, who had suddenly become the focus of attention, turned the roasted rabbit around.
Lu Wu didn't panic when she was being stared at by the dark, ghostly creature.
"I have a feeling that they're after Boss Lu's roasted rabbit."
Lou Xiaotian muttered to himself.
Perhaps it was the shared experience of being a foodie, but he didn't sense any hostility towards Lu Wu from these ghosts.
Even Lu Wu agreed with this guess.
Just as everyone was speculating, a loud boom came from the Ghost Gate, and a huge ghost rushed out from it.
"It's the Ghost King!"
Elder Jiang roared and unleashed a spell, attempting to capture him.
But little did they know that the Ghost King didn't confront Elder Jiang head-on at all. With a sideways twist and agile movement, he dodged the attack and arrived at Lu Wu's side at an extremely fast speed.
The pitch-black thing had no facial features, and its ghostly aura caused the surrounding temperature to plummet.
When this thing targeted him, Lu Wu's hand trembled, and the roasted rabbit almost fell off.
A wisp of black smoke emerged, caught the roasted rabbit, and handed it back to Lu Wu.
This sycophantic behavior speaks volumes without words.
It's safe!
Lu Wu immediately calmed down.
Lu Wu repositioned the roasted rabbit and tentatively asked, "Is this what you want to eat?"
The Ghost King's head... well, I should say the part that belongs to the head is moving up and down, indicating confirmation.
"This thing can communicate?"
For the first time, the members of the Divine Spear Sect, who had guarded the Ghost Gate for thousands of years and killed countless ghosts, learned that these ghosts could communicate with each other.
It turns out it wasn't a lack of wisdom, but rather a lack of awareness.
Unbelievable.
Elder Dan plucked off another large patch of his beard.
"Maybe it's because they don't want to talk to you."
Lou Xiaotian offered his opinion, only to be met with angry glares from the members of the Divine Spear Sect.
Why did you have to be so talkative!
"Well, it will take a while to cook."
Lu Wu responded, and then saw the other person rummaging around inside his body, pulling out something and handing it to Lu Wu.
It is shaped like a heart, but black, and has the feel of jade.
