In an instant, the crowd let out terrified screams.
They scattered in all directions.
The person closest to it was so frightened that his legs went weak, as if they were rooted to the ground and he couldn't move an inch.
He closed his eyes in despair, resigned to his fate and awaited the attack.
A crisp voice rang in at the same time: "Back off!"
The expected pain did not come. The man opened his eyes and saw a talisman emitting blue flames, which was constantly hitting him.
"Screech—." A scream echoed through the sky.
It rolled around on the ground, trying to avoid the talisman's attack.
No matter where it rolled, the talisman seemed to have a locator installed, always able to find its position.
A small talisman, after burning for a long time, is still burning.
Seeing that dodging was useless, the sniper turned around and attacked Su Lenghe.
It also knew that as long as Su Lenghe was around, it couldn't escape this ordeal today.
"Be careful!" Gao Yuan warned anxiously.
Su Lenghe stood tall, her hair fluttering in the breeze. She looked calm and composed, her eyes slightly raised, her domineering gaze carrying an air of supreme power.
She gently waved one hand forward, and the snipe-like creature crashed into the golden light barrier and flew backward.
His body crashed heavily to the ground, instantly creating a large hole in the bluestone pavement, with shards of stone flying everywhere.
The sniper let out a miserable scream, struggling as its red eyes flashed with an eerie light, sending chills down people's spines and making them stare at it warily.
"Bang!"
The mouse staggered twice, then fell to the ground and remained silent.
Mr. Gao, clutching his heart which nearly burst from his chest, asked in a low voice, "Will that thing get back up?"
Su Lenghe shook her head: "It died a long time ago."
As she spoke, she summoned a talisman, which landed directly on the snipe spirit.
With a loud bang, the talisman spontaneously combusted, burning onto the rat's body, filling the air with a foul, acrid smell.
This time, the snipe spirit did not struggle anymore, until the flames went out and it turned into a pile of ash.
With a gust of wind, even the last trace left on earth vanished...
"Alright, it won't bother you anymore."
Su Lenghe said "you all," and upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
They have indeed been feeling unwell lately and have been having nightmares frequently.
I thought it was just because of the changing seasons, but I never expected it to be related to that thing.
She took out the talismans she had prepared beforehand and handed them to Gao Yuan: "These are calming talismans, one for each person, they will help you get a good night's sleep."
Mr. Gao said, "I will pay for all the money for these talismans."
The workers lined up to receive the talismans one by one, their eyes filled with gratitude: "Thank you, Master Su."
Having witnessed Su Lenghe's abilities, they were confident in the effectiveness of the talismans.
After the talismans were distributed, Gao Yuan asked in a low voice, "Master Su, what did you mean by 'we' just now?"
Su Lenghe explained, "The sniper spirit is unwilling to die and wants to be resurrected, so it sucks people's energy every night. You have all been sucked."
Suppressing his nausea, Gao Yuan continued, "Then why is my sister's condition the most serious?"
Recently, Goryeo's health has been very poor, as if he has been staying up all night every day.
She went to the hospital for a checkup and was diagnosed with sub-health. The doctor simply told her to rest early.
She slept soundly after returning home this morning, and the noise from the house didn't wake her up.
Su Lenghe explained, "Was your sister injured before?"
Gao Yuan nodded: "Her hand was cut by the edge of the fountain."
Su Lenghe: "That thing was injured and wanted to recuperate at your house, but it didn't make it and died in your fountain."
"At the very moment it breathed its last, your sister's blood dripped into the pool."
"The two of them formed a bond."
"So only your sister can see it."
The sniper became attached to Goryeo, spending a long time in contact with her and absorbing her life essence.
However, its life is now tied to that of Goryeo. If Goryeo dies, it will die. Therefore, it can only strengthen itself by absorbing the essence of others.
It wants to completely take over Goryeo's body and survive in a different way.
Hearing this, Gao Yuan was extremely worried: "Will my sister have health problems? When will she wake up?"
"She'll be fine after a few more days of rest. She needs to get more sunshine lately. She's already awake."
Gao Yuan turned around and saw Gao Li standing behind him, looking at everyone with a confused expression.
"What's wrong?"
Gao's mother hugged Gao Li, sobbing, while Gao's father turned his face away and secretly wiped away his tears.
Gao Yuan was so happy he couldn't stop smiling.
Su Lenghe looked at the happy family and smiled slightly.
This is what a real family is like.
Su Lenghe will definitely help the original owner of this body get revenge for the harm the Su family caused.
Hearing these words, Gao Li looked terrified and was extremely grateful to Su Lenghe: "Master Su, thank you so much! No wonder I've been struggling with my work lately!"
Mr. Gao: "Thank you so much, Master Su, for visiting my humble abode. Why don't you stay for a simple meal?"
Su Lenghe refused outright: "No, my adoptive mother's biological daughter is getting married today, I have to go and see."
Although the Gao family was not in Kyoto, they had heard about the Su family's affairs.
With a look of heartache, Gao's mother said, "The Su family is unlucky. They don't even want their good daughter. If it were me, I would definitely cherish you."
His eyes were sincere, not like he was lying.
A warm feeling welled up in Su Lenghe's heart.
This family is kind-hearted, and their family will get better and better.
Let's have dinner together again sometime.
"Okay, okay."
Gao Yuan insisted on personally driving Su Lenghe to the wedding venue.
