No! No!
He curled up in a ball, crying and howling incessantly!
She's a devil! She's a devil!
"Why are you crying? He's not dead yet!" Chu Hongluan took the handkerchief Liu Jinghong handed her, wiped her hands, and casually tossed it onto the shopkeeper's face.
Then he bent down, took Liu Jinghong's mustard seed pouch back from his arms, threw several cleansing spells on it, and then threw it back into Liu Jinghong's hand.
Seeing this, Gou Dan's face turned ashen, and he stopped struggling altogether.
He knew they had met their match tonight and were going to meet their end here.
"I overheard you two plotting for ages the other day, you're thinking of having some fun tonight, right?" Chu Hongluan asked with a smile.
The two men were already waiting to die, and didn't listen to what she was saying, let alone respond to her.
"If you don't speak, I'll take that as your agreement."
As she spoke, she bent down and rummaged in the shopkeeper's sleeve, pulling out two porcelain bottles.
She opened them one by one and smelled them. One of them smelled of the intoxicating perfume from their collars, as for the other...
"This bottle of medicine, was it specially prepared for me? Thank you for your thoughtfulness."
Chu Hongluan pried open the shopkeeper's mouth with one hand, ignoring his desperate struggles, and poured half of the contents inside. She then knelt down next to Gou Dan, who forcefully turned his head away, clenching his teeth and refusing to cooperate.
So Chu Hongluan decisively and cleanly dislocated his jaw with a snap.
Gou Dan's mouth could no longer be closed, and he could only watch helplessly as Chu Hongluan poured the remaining half bottle of medicine into his mouth.
The medicine took effect quickly; the shopkeeper was already writhing like a maggot, and he could clearly feel the heat rising in his lower abdomen.
Chu Hongluan tossed aside the medicine bottle, stood up, stretched, and beckoned Liu Jinghong to leave: "Let's go, leave the space for the two of them."
"Um."
When Gou Dan saw that they had turned around and were about to step out the door, he was overjoyed!
They forgot to cripple his cultivation!
Haha! Heaven hasn't forsaken me!
Once I, Gou Dan, have recovered my strength, I will make you two pay the price!
His expression gradually turned ferocious, but then he heard a footstep stop at the door.
"Huh? I almost forgot."
Dog Egg's back stiffened completely.
Slowly raising his head, the first thing that caught his eye was a long sword wrapped in boundless bloodthirsty energy.
The girl's blood-red eyes emitted a faint glow in the darkness.
She smiled.
"It might hurt a little, just bear with it."
With a swift stroke, he shattered his golden core.
Chu Hongluan sheathed her knife, the crimson in her eyes fading simultaneously. Humming a song, she walked out the door, thoughtfully closing it behind her.
"Alright, this inn—it's now ours to take over. We were just wondering how to gather intelligence, and these two are truly a godsend..."
