Chapter 75: Greedy
Qing Yanrou, who was on the phone, saw her staring at her man, even ignoring the pain in her hand, and stared at him in a daze.
A trace of irritation rose in his heart, and he pulled Chu Tingbai with his other hand, asked him to stand behind him, and stood in front of him to prevent others from coveting him, while talking to Gu Yuan.
"Yes, Director Gu, that's right, it's here in the suburbs of Beijing. Okay, I'll wait for you to come over."
After hanging up the phone, she pushed Yi Fanling who was blocking the way away without any hesitation and led them in.
Seeing that she regarded him as her property and had a strong possessiveness towards him, Chu Tingbai felt particularly happy. If the occasion was not wrong, he would have wanted to hug her, kiss her, and let her feel his joy.
As soon as they entered, they were shocked by the scene before them.
In the spacious living room, there was a tall statue, about three meters high. Its expression was kind and compassionate. If it were not for what they saw next, Han Nianlu and Li Manxiang would have thought it was a Buddhist statue.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground right in front of the statue was a man in a pure white robe. He was wrapped tightly from head to toe, with only a pair of eyes visible. At this moment, his eyes were tightly closed, and his hands were constantly waving in front of him in an orderly manner, as if he was performing some ritual.
Yi Cong'an lay flat in front of him with her eyes closed, a look of pain on her face, and a pale face. She was surrounded by a circle of dark brown liquid, trapping her inside.
The liquid was flowing in an orderly manner following the waving of the white-robed man's hand.
Li Manxiang and Han Nianlu covered their mouths in horror, and looked at Qing Yanrou with a gloomy face, with fear and anxiety in their eyes.
Qing Yanrou looked at the familiar evil image, her expression becoming even colder. She had not expected that he would be so brazen now, actually daring to come directly into the crowd and incite people to sacrifice.
It seems that he is really anxious.
But recently, we haven't heard anything about him from the Taoist sect or the special department. What made him so anxious that he did this regardless of the risk of being discovered?
Chu Tingbai, who was standing behind Qing Yanrou, was also looking coldly at the evil statue at this time. It was just a thing that was not presentable. It came out to cause trouble again and again. It seemed that he had to be dealt with as soon as possible.
However, his current mana has recovered less than one tenth, so it will still take some time. Tsk, that's really frustrating.
Seeing Yi Cong'an lying on the ground with a painful expression and his face becoming paler, Qing Yanrou gathered spiritual power in her hands and quickly attacked the man in white robe.
"Dad, Mom, they want to disrupt my sister's blood exchange ceremony and destroy her. Stop them now!"
Yi Fanling, who came in a step behind them, saw Qing Yanrou attacking the man in white robe as soon as he came in. He couldn't help but shout loudly to the Yi couple who were sitting on the sofa in a daze.
After hearing her words, the lifeless eyes of the Yi family couple suddenly showed a glimmer of light, and their faces became lively from the initial dullness. There was a slight distortion on their facial expressions, and there was madness in their eyes.
"Don't touch my daughter, don't touch my daughter..."
Both of them were unconscious, but they instinctively ran towards Yi Cong'an, trying to stop Qing Yanrou.
Chu Tingbai frowned and glanced coldly at Yi Fanling who was holding his wrist with an indifferent look. Then he took a long step to stop the couple, took out two talismans from his bag and stuck them on their foreheads.
The two were frozen in an instant, standing still and unable to move, but their faces still showed anxiety and madness.
At Chu Tingbai's glance, Yi Fanling felt as if all the blood in her body had stopped flowing. She shuddered, her whole body tinged with cold. Although she was in a heated room, she felt as if she were in a world of ice and snow, shivering with cold. Being glanced at by that gaze, like prey being stalked by a wild beast, fear welled up in her heart.
"You, you, what did you do to my parents?"
Looking at the Yi couple who were unable to move, she forced herself to stay awake and asked tremblingly.
This time, Chu Tingbai didn't even bother to glance at her, and his attention was focused on Qing Yanrou.
The man in white robe sensed them when they came in, but the arrow was shot and there was no turning back. He could only hope that the Yi family could delay them for a while so that he could complete the living sacrifice quickly.
But I didn't expect the Yi family to be so useless.
When Qing Yanrou was about to reach him, he finally opened his eyes, and stared at the person who ruined his plan with a pair of vicious eyes. His hands moved faster and faster, and he began to mutter to himself.
She knew that the man in white robe had set up a barrier around him, but she didn't take this little trick seriously at all.
The body moved forward without any pause. When it reached the barrier, it slapped it down with its palm. Ripples appeared in the air, and then the barrier was shattered.
The man in white robe saw how easily she destroyed the barrier he had set up. His pupils constricted, his eyes were filled with fear, and his hands moved faster and faster.
What Qing Yanrou didn't expect was that this person was quite cautious and set up more than one barrier.
Seeing him speed up, she also speeded up, and in an instant, the remaining three barriers were destroyed.
"Sir, save me!"
Just when Qing Yanrou kicked him away, the man in white robe shouted loudly. Qing Yanrou and Chu Tingbai were both stunned. They didn't notice the man's existence.
Just as the white-robed man's voice fell, the eyes of the evil statue flashed. He was about to show up, but after seeing the person underground clearly, he disappeared without a trace in an instant.
The speed not only stunned Qing Yanrou and Chu Tingbai, but even the man in white robe who was kicked away and lying in the corner was stunned.
