Chu Nian: "Of course I took her with me. She's only at level two, and once we leave here, her soul will be too weak and light to float back to her body automatically."
Zhao Feiyang: "And you? You..." You're way more than just level two!
Chu Nian: "I will automatically float back to my physical body."
Zhao Feiyang felt extremely disappointed: So it seems that only he has no place to live.
Chu Nian: "You don't have a physical body. Going back to the mortal realm with us won't end well. Go greet the guests!"
Zhao Feiyang was completely baffled and frowned, asking, "What guest?"
Chu Nian: "My people have found the officials of the underworld, and they are on their way. You are now just a wandering soul, so going to the underworld is the best option for you."
I've already had my men tell the officials in the underworld that you were the one who sent him to report to them. That credit will be given to you. You'll even be able to get a position in the underworld someday.β
The sounds of battle erupted outside; the villa's bodyguards on duty were already engaged in combat with a group of high-level players who had attacked. These high-level players had obviously seen the notice board and learned that Chu Nian lived here, so they came directly to kill her.
Zhao Feiyang's expression changed, and he said, "Take Li Shuangshuang and leave quickly. I'll hold them off for a while."
"No need, why are you blocking me?" Chu Nian hurriedly said, grabbing him as he was about to leap out.
The sounds of battle outside rose quickly and subsided even faster. All the attackers had been reduced to level ten, making them no match for the villa's bodyguards, who were already at levels eighty or ninety. They were all defeated in no time.
The bodyguard captain immediately messaged Zhao Feiyang, saying that the first wave of attackers had retreated because they had dropped to level ten. Zhao Feiyang was completely bewildered.
It took him a while to come to his senses, and he said, "You've already made them drop levels so fast?" It was as if the battle had only just begun and was already over.
Chu Nian smiled faintly and said, "Listen to me, go and greet the guests!" She used radio waves to present a map in front of Zhao Feiyang, showing the place where the underworld officials would appear.
Even without her intervention, Zhao Feiyang would have ultimately arrived with the underworld officials; she didn't want to change too much of the plot regarding the male and female leads. Honestly, it's not easy to find male and female leads with relatively sound values ββin these kinds of books!
The sounds of fighting broke out outside again; it turned out to be yet another group of arrogant and ignorant invaders.
Zhao Feiyang hesitated and asked, "Is it really okay for me to leave now?"
Chu Nian nodded and said, "Sure!"
Zhao Feiyang wasn't only worried about her and Li Shuangshuang; there were also many people like Jia Pingchang who he certainly didn't want to die here.
Thinking of this, Chu Nian continued, "I will wait until their attacks stop before leaving with Shuangshuang. I estimate that you will have already arrived here with the officials from the underworld by then."
Zhao Feiyang nodded and said, "Alright then!" Then he planned to teleport according to the map Chu Nian gave him.
To his surprise, when he activated the teleportation function, he found himself still stuck in the same spot. He activated it again, but still nothing happened. He exclaimed in horror, "I'm trapped here!"
Chu Nian, however, saw things more clearly than him, saying, "It's not that you're trapped, but that the entire Xiangyang Villa has been sealed off by space."
"Haha... Liu Nian, a mere contract player..." A woman's voice suddenly appeared in the void.
Chu Nian and Zhang Xiaotong, who had just been beaten and couldn't even stand up, immediately recognized that it was the voice of that witch Zhang.
"Do you really think I can't do anything to you?" The witch's voice was icy. "Everyone in this sunny villa will become my dinner tonight. Haha...haha..."
Zhang Xiaotong was startled upon hearing this and hurriedly shouted into the void, "Ms. Zhang, it's me, Xiaotong! Aren't we old acquaintances? And we've even reached an agreement."
The witch Zhang said coldly, "An agreement? Have you fulfilled your promise to me?"
Zhang Xiaotong said anxiously, "But there are many unforeseen circumstances. It's not that I don't want to finish it! Let me out, and I'll ask my dad to give you a larger share of the business."
"Business? Haha...haha..." Zhang the witch laughed strangely.
Chu Nian looked at Zhang Xiaotong and sighed, "Sigh, what an incredibly foolish person she is!"
Zhang Xiaotong felt ashamed by her obviously contemptuous words, but she quickly pointed at Chu Nian and shouted, "Liu Nian, we are in this situation today because of you."
Chu Nian sneered and said, "You can't beat that witch Zhang, so you've come up with another bad idea about me."
Zhang Xiaotong shouted into the void, "Ms. Zhang, I'll help you capture Liu Nian, and you'll let me leave, okay?"
The witch Zhang said, "I can handle Liu Nian myself, why would I need you?"
Zhang Xiaotong was speechless for a moment. But she still didn't think that the witch Zhang would really devour her, after all, she had known this elegant and beautiful woman since she was a child, for twenty years.
She heard the witch Zhang chanting strange, incomprehensible notes in the void. Moments later, she felt a suction force surging into the space. The suction force even condensed into a visible stream of air, rushing towards the top of Chu Nian's head.
But the airflow suddenly changed direction and landed on Mao Yongheng's head. Mao Yongheng screamed and struggled, but was still carried away by the suction force.
Zhang Xiaotong gasped in shock, unable to believe what she was seeing.
"Living soul, is it delicious?" Chu Nian asked with a cold smile.
Zhang the Witch: "I never expected you to have this ability to change the object of my witchcraft."
Chu Nian said, "It's my turn." She took out a small whistle, put it to her lips, and began to blow it.
The whistle blew up, its rhythm ordinary, yet it was accompanied by the screams of the witch Zhang echoing in the air. A cold smile appeared on Chu Nian's lips.
"Ah..." Finally, everyone heard an extremely long and tragic scream. A woman fell from the void and crashed heavily onto the hard floor of the hall.
Her face was deathly pale. Clutching her stomach, she struggled to her feet, looked up at Chu Nian, cold sweat pouring down her forehead, and demanded, "What did you do to me?"
Zhang Xiaotong recognized that this was Ms. Zhang.
Chu Nian stopped whistling.
The intensely painful and itchy sensation that Zhang the witch felt moving inside her body immediately disappeared.
"What did you do to me?" As soon as she regained her strength, Zhang the witch screamed hysterically and tried to pounce on Chu Nian.
But Chu Nian picked up the whistle and blew it again.
Zhang the witch immediately felt as if insects were crawling and biting her body. Overwhelmed by the pain and itching, she curled up on the ground.
Chu Nian stopped whistling again.
