"Slap!" The security guard received another slap across the face, and he immediately fell to the ground. In the middle of the night, having been slapped twice without warning, the security guard was already terrified.
"Master Yu, I don't want the monk's money anymore. It's all my fault. I'll kowtow to you. Please don't hit me anymore!" the security guard shrieked.
"Slap!" Boss Yu's wife got slapped again.
"Ah! Stop hitting me! I'm leaving right now! I'm leaving right now! Don't follow me! If you're going to die, just go on your way quietly. Why are you coming here to scare people? I'll send you to the crematorium right now, I'm leaving right away!" The woman also yelled "Aow!" and got up and rushed out of the office.
The women who were with her also changed their expressions and ran out with her.
When Boss Yu's friend saw that he was about to be slapped again, he didn't dare to stay any longer. He turned around and chased after Boss Yu's wife.
"Sister-in-law, wait for me. We need to carry Boss Yu away. It smells bad. No wonder Brother Yu is angry."
Wang Yao glanced around. Five slaps had cost him 1500 points of spiritual power, but the effect was quite good. Hearing a loud crash outside, the culprit, Boss Yu, was finally carried away. Inside the office, a security guard was lying face down on the ground, while the other guards were also terrified.
Wang Yao snorted coldly, put all the money in his hand, along with the cryptic cloth bag, into his Qiankun device, and then strolled out of the office. It was pitch black outside, and apart from a few security guards, the group of troublemakers had indeed all slipped away.
Seeing this scene, Wang Yao was very satisfied. This was the skill of an immortal. He had manipulated a group of ignorant mortals at will. How majestic and pleasant it was! He turned around and prepared to find the elevator to go up to the eighth floor. He still had some scores to settle with Hui Shuo.
But when he looked up, he saw a dark figure standing at the hotel lobby elevator. Huh? Is that a security guard? They've already taken the dead body away, why isn't the hotel turning on the lights yet? Wang Yao complained inwardly, but he sensed something was wrong.
He was at level 6 in spiritual power and had excellent eyesight. He wasn't far from the elevator entrance, so logically he should have been able to see clearly who was at the elevator entrance. But he couldn't make out the figure at the elevator entrance at all. There must be something fishy about this.
"Wang Yao, do you want to take the elevator?" Wang Yao was standing there wondering when the figure suddenly spoke. Wang Yao's heart skipped a beat. Judging from the voice, the figure was none other than Lü Xian.
This… Lu Xian has already realized what's happening and is here to take revenge on me? Wang Yao's heart skipped a beat. He looked around and found that the security guards in the hotel lobby were all standing there blankly, as if they hadn't heard Lu Xian's voice at all, or as if they were daydreaming.
"Uh..." What's going on? Why has the hotel lobby become so gloomy? Is this Lu Xian's doing? While answering Lu Xian, Wang Yao looked around suspiciously, feeling that the hotel lobby had already quietly changed the moment he noticed Lu Xian.
The lobby seemed to be sealed off, even the air seemed to have stopped flowing. The entire space seemed to have been separated from the hotel and detached from it, with a light, weightless feeling. The security guards seemed to be nothing but empty shells, completely unresponsive to his voice.
"If you want to take the elevator, hurry up and come over," Lu Xian said calmly.
"Um... I want to go for a walk..." Wang Yao stammered as his thoughts raced.
“You’d better come over,” Lu Xian said slowly and deliberately, like a ghost, as he stood at the elevator entrance.
"I can't believe your lies!" Wang Yao cursed inwardly, backing away step by step towards the hotel entrance. But before he could take two steps, he felt a sudden tightness all over his body, and he couldn't even move his little finger.
“Want to go for a walk? That’s great. Yunling is at its quietest at this time of year, definitely worth a visit.” Lü Xian said softly as she slowly walked towards Wang Yao.
Wang Yao felt a sense of foreboding and regretted letting Hua Gu and Hui Shuo go to the room first. Now that he was alone, even if Lü Xian killed him, no one would know and would just think he had disappeared.
"Did you do Xiao Cai's thing?" Lu Xian walked up to Wang Yao, her whole body like mist, ethereal and unpredictable. Her voice came in a low voice, like a ghost whispering in Wang Yao's ear, making Wang Yao's skin crawl.
“Um…that…the task of Fairy Caixia…” Wang Yao was paralyzed, his heart pounding in his throat. He finally couldn’t help but mention Fairy Caixia. He meant to tell Lü Xian that arranging a marriage for Wei Cai was Fairy Caixia’s task, but Lü Xian misunderstood.
"Fairy Caixia? Are you threatening me, kid?" Lu Xian's misty figure solidified slightly, and a pair of blood-red eyes appeared in the mist like will-o'-the-wisps, blinking slowly at Wang Yao without any emotion.
"No..." Wang Yao tried to shake his head, but his whole body was stiff and he couldn't move at all.
"You brat, you're so young, yet you're incredibly audacious. If I were to eliminate you today, it would be as if I've rid the Heavenly Court of a scourge..."
Lu Xian spoke slowly. Wang Yao felt the restraints around him getting tighter and tighter, as if he were being bound by countless steel wires. The wires kept tightening and gradually cut into his flesh, making it so that Wang Yao couldn't breathe and was in excruciating pain. It looked like his body was about to be strangled into several pieces.
Just then, a sudden sound went through his mind, and the Matchmaker System seemed to be on fire. The system interface, the skill, spiritual power, and magic power interfaces began to flash chaotically, jumping back and forth repeatedly. At the same time, the pain of being wrapped in steel wire suddenly lessened.
