Chapter 521 Changes
As she spoke, Zhong Nian Yao stretched out her hand and touched Meng Rou's eyebrows with her fingertips.
Meng Rou couldn't dodge and felt dazed for a moment. Then she felt as if there was a layer of fog in front of her eyes, but it became clear again in an instant.
Suddenly, a hideous shadow appeared in front of her. It was none other than Master Zeng.
At this time, Master Zeng had a bloody mouth. Although there were no signs of burns on his body, his facial features were distorted and he looked extremely terrifying.
"Ah——" An uncontrollable scream came out of Meng Rou's mouth.
Perhaps because of the power of panic, she sat on the ground, supported herself on the floor and stepped back several times, her hands still waving, "Go away, go away, don't come near me."
Because of the painful torture before his death, Master Zeng has become a ghost, but he has no consciousness at all. All his actions now are almost based on instinct.
In his mind, both Zhong Nianyao and Meng Rou were his enemies who killed him. However, the aura emanating from Zhong Nianyao frightened him, so he now pounced on Meng Rou.
Soon, Meng Rou's shrill screams were heard from inside the house.
Master Zeng had already turned into a ghost, and his attacks would not cause any harm to Meng Rou's body. However, they caused great damage to Meng Rou's soul.
The pain of a wounded soul is many times more painful than physical pain.
Meng Rou had never suffered such torture before. Even the infant spirit had never caused her such pain.
"Save me...save me..." Meng Rou stretched out her hand and asked Zhong Nian Yao for help.
Facing Meng Rou's plea for help, Zhong Nianyao stood aside with a smile on her face, as if she was watching a good show. "Aren't you allies? So what are you afraid of? To be honest, you found this person yourself!"
With a loud "bang", the door that was originally closed suddenly fell to the ground.
Zhong Nian Yao looked in the direction of the gate, and before she could see everything clearly, she was embraced in a warm embrace, and then an anxious voice came from above her head.
"Yao'er, are you hurt?"
As he spoke, the other party had already begun to carefully examine her body.
The person who came was none other than Lu Yichen. He looked anxious and his breathing was a little unstable.
Just now, his phone had been accidentally dropped. He hadn't taken it seriously at first, but after getting a new phone, replacing the SIM card, and seeing the message on it, his entire blood seemed to freeze. Then, he immediately mobilized his forces and began investigating Zhong Nianyao's whereabouts. Because of this, it would be no exaggeration to say that an earthquake had occurred in the upper class of the imperial capital.
When he saw Zhao Xuanlang standing there unharmed and with a confused look on his face, he became even more anxious.
Finally, after finding out Zhong Nianyao's whereabouts, he immediately rushed in. The first thing that caught his eye was Zhong Nianyao covered in blood.
He was filled with remorse. Otherwise, because of his negligence, how could Zhong Nianyao have to face all this alone at such a critical moment? As long as he thought of Zhong Nianyao being injured because of this, he could not forgive himself.
"I'm fine." Zhong Nianyao quickly grabbed Lu Yichen's hand and said helplessly, "I'm really not injured. No, it doesn't seem right to say that. My injury has healed, but it doesn't seem right either..."
For a moment, she really didn't know how to explain to Lu Yichen.
Just at the critical moment, she thought she might die here today. However, at this critical moment, a powerful force suddenly emerged, and her injuries healed, and she also felt unprecedented strength.
She didn't know what was wrong with her or why she felt such a strong power. However, she was certain that this strong power belonged to her.
When using this power, she did not feel any strangeness at all. Instead, she felt like a fish in water, as if it was a part of her body.
She didn't understand what was going on, but she had a vague feeling that it wasn't a bad thing.
It was at this time that Lu Yichen noticed the changes in Zhong Nianyao, including her pupils that had turned golden and the fiery red Lycoris radiata on her forehead.
Noticing Lu Yichen's strangeness, Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but frown, "What's wrong?"
Lu Yichen stretched out his hand, and gently stroked the red spider lily on Zhong Nianyao's forehead with his fingers. He spoke in a low voice, "The bottom of your eyes is now golden. And there is an extra mark on your forehead."
Looking at Zhong Nianyao like this, he felt a little strange, but there was a sense of familiarity flowing from his bones. He didn't know what was wrong with him. Suddenly, his heart trembled, and he even felt an inexplicable sadness.
"ha?"
After hearing Lu Yichen's answer, Zhong Nianyao's eyes widened, and there was a hint of disbelief in her tone, "How is this possible?"
"Forget it, I'd better take a look myself!"
After saying that, Zhong Nianyao went straight to the entrance. Because just after entering the door, she found that there seemed to be a mirror hidden in the cabinet in the entrance of the house.
Open the cabinet, pull out the mirror inside, and then throw out a dust-clearing talisman.
The mirror, which was originally covered with dust, now looked like new, and the glass surface was clearly visible.
Zhong Nianyao stood in front of the mirror, looking at the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar face in it. She reached out and gently touched the red spider lily on her forehead. Then, she couldn't help but rub it with her fingers, and found that the mark on her forehead had not changed at all.
For a moment, she didn't know how to react.
Turning her head and looking at Lu Yichen who had been following her, Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but speak, "Yichen, what's going on with me? My eyes, and the mark on my forehead——"
"What on earth just happened?"
Lu Yichen reached out and put his arm around Zhong Nianyao's waist. The warm and familiar scent finally made him feel at ease. The sadness that had inexplicably surged up just now had completely disappeared without leaving any trace, as if it was all just an illusion.
Zhong Nianyao had nothing to hide, so she told everyone directly about how Meng Rou and Master Zeng had plotted against her today, as well as about the powerful force that suddenly appeared.
