The door of the gallery was suddenly pushed open. Jiang Muyao stood at the door with a stern look in her eyes and a string of copper coins in her hand.
The tone was calm but with unquestionable majesty:
"Qin Zhenzhen, your game is over."
Qin Zhenzhen turned her head and saw Jiang Muyao, with a sarcastic smile on her lips:
"Hey, isn't this Pei Linyuan's wife? How dare a useless piece of shit come in front of me?"
Her voice was sharp and piercing, and her eyes were full of disdain.
She had met Jiang Muyao several times, but never took her seriously.
In her opinion, Jiang Muyao was just an ordinary person who depended on the Pei family.
There is nothing to be afraid of.
At this moment, Qin Zhenzhen no longer had the mood to tease the two Pei brothers.
She was injured by the amulet on Pei Haoyu and her breathing became unstable.
The anger and resentment in her heart made her want to kill them as soon as possible.
Control their souls and turn them into puppets to vent the hatred in your heart.
"Since you all come here seeking death, I will grant your wish!"
There was madness in Qin Zhenzhen's voice. Her body suddenly swelled up, and her red skirt fluttered in the air like a burning flame.
The temperature in the gallery plummeted, a chilly wind howled, and the figures in the paintings on the wall stretched out their hands.
Grabbed towards Jiang Muyao and the two Pei brothers.
Pei Yichen and Pei Haoyu were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They huddled in a corner, at a loss as to what to do.
Pei Haoyu clutched the remaining amulet tightly, his voice trembling:
“Sister-in-law…be careful!”
Jiang Muyao, however, looked calm as usual, looking at Qin Zhenzhen with a cold gaze:
"Do you think that with your little ability, you can act so presumptuously in front of me?"
Qin Zhenzhen sneered, her voice full of sarcasm: "Just you? A useless piece of shit, and you dare to speak so arrogantly?"
She waved her hand suddenly, and the characters in the painting crawled out of the frame one after another, pouncing towards Jiang Muyao with bared fangs and claws.
Jiang Muyao didn't even raise her eyelids, and lightly tossed the copper coin in her hand.
The copper coins instantly formed a complex formation in the air, emitting a bright golden light.
"The sky and the earth are boundless, the universe uses the law, and the evil spirits retreat!" Jiang Muyao whispered.
The golden light pierced the characters in the paintings like a sharp sword. They let out a shrill scream and instantly turned into black smoke and dissipated.
Qin Zhenzhen's face turned ugly in an instant. She didn't expect Jiang Muyao to be so powerful.
"You... who are you?" Qin Zhenzhen's voice was filled with a hint of panic.
Jiang Muyao did not answer, but took out a piece of talisman paper from her sleeve, bit her fingertip, and drew a complex rune on the talisman paper with her blood.
She raised her head, her eyes like knives:
"Qin Zhenzhen, you sucked people's yang energy and killed them. Today, I will enforce justice on behalf of Heaven."
Qin Zhenzhen was frightened by her aura and subconsciously took a step back, but soon regained her ferocious expression:
"Just you? You want to seal me? Dream on!"
She pounced on Jiang Muyao, her hands turning into sharp claws, heading straight for her throat.
However, Jiang Muyao did not move at all. She lightly tossed the talisman in her hand, and it instantly turned into a golden light, trapping Qin Zhenzhen inside.
"ah!"
Qin Zhenzhen let out a shrill scream, her body twisting continuously in the golden light, and finally turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated into the air.
The gallery returned to calm, and the cold atmosphere dissipated.
Pei Yichen and Pei Haoyu slumped on the ground, unable to speak for a long time.
Jiang Muyao put away the copper coins, walked up to Pei Yichen, and said in a light tone:
"Aren't you getting up yet?"
Pei Yichen raised his head, his eyes full of complexity and regret:
"Sister-in-law, I... I was wrong! Zhenzhen... she really..."
Jiang Muyao nodded, her tone calm:
"She is no longer human. The Yin energy in you is already very strong. Go back and get more sun. Just endure it."
She had a way to remove the evil spirit from him, but she didn't want to use it, so she should let him suffer more and be unlucky and weak.
It is already a favor to Tiandao that I can come and save people.
Pei Yichen lowered his head, his voice choked with sobs:
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Jiang Muyao was too lazy to say anything more and turned to leave.
Pei Haoyu hurriedly followed, muttering:
"Sister-in-law, you are so handsome!"
Pei Yichen looked at the scene and felt it was dazzling. He remembered that in the evening he had mocked the third brother as a fool and had become the eldest sister-in-law's follower.
It turns out that he is the stupidest one in this family. The eldest sister-in-law is really capable. What she said in her heart is really the ending of their Pei family, not a curse on them...
And the eldest sister-in-law seemed to have become a different person, someone who came to save their Pei family.
He decided that he would be his sister-in-law's pendant, bootlicker, and follower from now on!

Jiang Muyao stood in the hall of the Pei family and watched Pei Haoyu leave in a hurry.
She wanted to turn around and go back to her room to rest, but her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground by some force and she couldn't move.
She frowned and tried to take a step towards the Pei family's gate, but found that this step was unusually easy, as if some force was pushing her out.
She stopped, counted quickly with her fingers, and sneered: "Old Tiandao, are you trying to do this?"
She looked up at the sky, her eyes full of disdain.
"You made me come through here for no reason, left me with a mess, and now you want to force me to save people? You're dreaming!"
She simply stood there motionless, with her arms folded across her chest, looking like, "What can you do to me?"
"It's not like I can't sleep while standing. I'm not in a hurry anyway."
Suddenly, a muffled thunder was heard in the sky, as if warning her.
Jiang Muyao looked up and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth:
"Chop me? Come on, as long as you don't kill me, then chop me to death. Even if you kill me, it will just be a good opportunity to be reborn!"
There was another clap of thunder, this time closer, as if it exploded right above her head.
Jiang Muyao remained motionless, even closing her eyes, as if she was enjoying this "symphony of thunder".
The heavens seemed to be getting anxious, and the thunder became more and more frequent, but it never really struck.
Jiang Muyao knew clearly that the Heavenly Dao was still waiting for her to save Pei Yichen, and he didn't dare to really hurt her.
Finally, a deep voice came from the sky and entered her mind directly:
"Jiang Muyao, what do you want?"
Jiang Muyao opened her eyes, and the smile on her lips deepened:
"Hey, old man Tiandao, you are finally willing to show up and negotiate with me?"
There was a hint of helplessness in Tiandao's voice: "What exactly do you want me to do in exchange for saving people?"
Jiang Muyao raised her eyebrows and said in a relaxed tone: "Simple, three conditions.
First, I want freedom. Stop controlling my actions.
Second, I want the power of merit, the more the better;
Third, I want you to help me find a way back."
Tian Dao was silent for a few seconds, and finally replied, "Okay."
Jiang Muyao nodded with satisfaction: "Deal."
Only then did she take a step forward and walk towards the Pei family's gate.
As he walked, he muttered, "Wouldn't it have been better if you had just done this earlier? You had to force me to argue with you."
