They were in a clearing in the woods, where the thick bushes blocked out the sunlight, giving it a somewhat eerie feel.
Suddenly, a sound came from the bushes, as if something was hiding inside!
Their hearts pounded, and they couldn't help but think of that night in the border forest, when they were surrounded by a dense swarm of venomous snakes!
As the noise grew louder, everyone's attention focused on a patch of green grass.
Suddenly, a grayish-white ball of flesh jumped out, startling everyone, who quickly drew their hidden knives.
The grayish-white fleshy ball landed, bit off a small pink flower, and then hopped away and disappeared from the spot.
After everyone saw it clearly, they all breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the grayish-white fleshy ball was a mixed-breed rabbit!
Su Manman was speechless.
[I was terrified! I thought it was an enemy secret weapon, but it was just a fat rabbit. I was just scaring myself!]
No wonder they say suspicion breeds ghosts; now I know what that means!
Fu Yanzhu covered her mouth and chuckled. Just as she was about to say something, she noticed a group of men in black running out of the dense forest!
They were all dressed in black robes and wore the same masks. As soon as they appeared, they surrounded Fu Yanzhu and the others.
[Holy crap! So the big fat rabbit was the vanguard of the black-robed man! This thing that suddenly appeared looks exactly like it!]
Su Manman's eyes widened as she silently counted the number of men in black robes.
The number nine seems very sensitive. What are these people up to?!
Feng Xuan glanced at the moonstone bracelet Su Manman was wearing, and slightly curled her lips. These people's plan is probably going to fall through!
Nine men in black robes formed a circle, with equal distance between each pair of men. Su Manman and Fu Yanzhu, along with three others, stood in the middle.
The five people looked at each other in bewilderment, while the nine men in black robes began to move.
They started circling around the five people, singing and gesturing wildly as they went.
"God of Night, grant your followers strength, Y&GYUHGYUFGTYFDTYGKJLNMLK......"
Su Manman's eyes lit up as she stared intently at them. She nudged Fu Yanzhu with her elbow and whispered something.
"Fu Yanzhu, do you think they're performing some kind of shamanistic ritual?"
"It looks so funny, the way he's grabbing at the air with his hands and feet looks like a lunatic!"
Fu Yanzhu chuckled softly, "Quite similar!"
The black-robed man who was leading the dance almost coughed up blood when he heard their conversation, but fortunately, his professionalism was excellent, and he managed to swallow it back!
The spellcasting process cannot be interrupted, otherwise he will commit a grave sin!
He secretly despised the person who spoke, thinking, "Ignorant brat, the God of Night will punish you!"
A man sat on a towering tree not far away, playing with herbs in his hand and taking in everything before him.
A short while later, the men in black robes finished their spell and quickly gathered together, standing in two rows, three in front and six behind.
The man in the black robe standing in the middle of the front row was clearly an old man, with deep wrinkles on his forehead!
Surprisingly, his voice sounded quite young!
"Woman, is the dragon bone inside you?"
Su Manman nodded, looking completely innocent. "Yes, sir, is there something you need?"
[Holy crap, these guys are after me! They want the dragon bone? Dream on!]
The man in black robes who was addressed as "Grandpa" paused, then cursed angrily.
"Damn it, who are you calling 'Grandpa'?! I'm only eighteen!"
Everyone stared wide-eyed, their expressions filled with astonishment. This guy is eighteen?! Eighty would be more like it!
Su Manman snorted coldly and rolled her eyes dismissively.
"Pshaw, who are you kidding? I'm only nineteen, and you're eighteen! Would you look like that at eighteen? Your forehead wrinkles are three feet deep!"
"At eighteen or nineteen, you can have a face like mine, with soft, plump skin full of collagen. It will bounce back immediately when you press it!"
As Su Manman spoke, she poked her own cheek and demonstrated to the man in black robes!
The man in the black robe was furious, his eyes bloodshot, as if he wanted to tear Su Manman to pieces immediately.
The witchcraft he used was forbidden, and the price he paid was burning his lifespan. Although he was only eighteen, he used forbidden magic many times, otherwise he would not have looked old, and he would not have been entrusted with important responsibilities by the lord at such a young age!
But the wrinkles on his face became a pain in his heart. When he saw other people's youthful appearance, he wanted to tear them apart himself, let alone be mocked by Su Manman!
"You bitch, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
The man in black robes was about to move when he was stopped by his subordinates.
"My lord! We've failed! The magic didn't work!"
After being told off by his subordinate, the man in black robes calmed down and carefully observed the five people's expressions. He found that they were still full of energy and had not been controlled by the witchcraft!
The man in black robes was shocked! His witchcraft was definitely not something that could be resisted by raw materials like dragon bones, unless they could extract moonstone!
At the same time, a flash of silver light appeared in Fu Yanzhu's hand, and a sharp scalpel appeared in his palm.
He raised his arm and flicked it lightly, sending the scalpel flying towards the black-robed man in the middle!
The man in black was terrified. He first tried to block the attack with his magic but failed. He then grabbed one of his men to take the blow for him!
The scalpel sliced through the flesh and plunged into the heart of the man in the black robe; he died with his eyes wide open in disbelief!
Lu Chuan took out his gun and fired a shot at the man in black robes, who dodged it by turning his body!
This shot marked the beginning of the black-robed men's escape; they only knew witchcraft and were clearly no match for close combat!
Now that the witchcraft has failed, they have no choice but to flee!
When Su Manman saw Lu Chuan fire his gun, her eyes lit up. She pulled out her own pistol from her waist, aimed at the fleeing man in black, and fired!
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
Three bullets were fired, but none of them hit the target. Su Manman was speechless and asked the heavens!
[Damn it, is it really that hard? How come I can't hit a single one!]
Fu Yanzhu took out a magazine and handed it to Su Manman, gently patted her head, then glanced at Jiang Han and said.
"Take your time, I'll go ambush them for you!"
"Jiang Han, come along!"
Jiang Han agreed and prepared to work with Fu Yanzhu to corner the escapees in one area!
Just then, Feng Xuan flashed and appeared on a big tree. With a wave of her long arm, she set up a trapping array, confining the men in black to a certain area.
A brilliant azure light shone brightly, trapping the black-clad figure. The leader, a man in black robes, looked at Feng Xuan with fear on his face.
"The Mysterious Azure Formation, you are...?"
The man in the black robe stopped speaking halfway through his sentence, and the other men in black robes were the same; none of them could utter a word.
They paced back and forth anxiously within the formation, unsure of what to do!
Feng Xuan leaned lazily against a big tree with her arms crossed, her cool voice echoing through the forest.
"Little girl, we've trapped the person for you. You can practice your marksmanship now!"
Su Manman was at a loss for words when she saw Feng Xuan's sly antics!
"Uncle Fengxuan, you're amazing!"
Feng Xuan curled her lips, turned around and fixed her gaze on a tree. Xiao Yan froze, knowing that he had been discovered!
