The ghosts exchanged glances the moment the wolf demon spoke.
Outside.
Mu Anxiao, disregarding the grime on the dilapidated wall, pressed herself against it, listening to the wolf demon's voice from within. She yawned, straightened up, and said, "Shen Fengshi, come here." She beckoned with her fingers.
Fengshi looked at Mu Anxiao's gesture, then glanced down at the dog ghost gazing at him. He said, "Mu Shazi, you've gone too far."
Mu Anxiao continued to beckon.
Seeing that Mu Anxiao was ignoring him and acting excessively, Fengshi grew annoyed. He removed his hand from the dog ghost's head, stood up, and quickly walked towards Mu Anxiao. He then reached out, intending to grab her fingers.
The next second.
The wolf demon began to count down. The ghosts inside stopped exchanging glances and hurriedly turned to flee.
Simultaneously, Mu Anxiao inadvertently caught sight of the ghosts' toes. She then turned, grabbed Fengshi's outstretched hand, and with a strong pull, flung him towards her, his back hitting the dirty wall heavily.
Mu Anxiao glanced at Fengshi's startled face, then looked at the ghosts who had ignored them and were now running towards the street, disappearing from view. A smirk played on her lips. "Thank me," she said, her hand still holding Fengshi's.
Fengshi: "..." He looked down at Mu Anxiao's hand tightly clasped with his and chuckled.
Hearing Fengshi's silence, Mu Anxiao frowned. She turned her head to look at his smiling face and asked, "What are you doing?"
Upon hearing this, Fengshi snapped back to attention. His smile undiminished, he met Mu Anxiao's eyes and said, "I'm liking you more and more."
Mu Anxiao had never paid any attention to Fengshi's affections. Instead, looking at the smile on his face now, she found it unnerving.
So, she casually said, "I find you more and more disgusting." With that, she yanked her hand away from Fengshi.
Fengshi's smiling face instantly turned cold. "Mu Shazi, you've gone too far. I'm a dashing young man, and saying that," he lowered his head and muttered, "it's really hurtful."
"You're not disgusting, you're lewd," Mu Anxiao said, crossing her arms in front of her chest.
This wasn't the first or second time Mu Anxiao had rejected Fengshi. Each time, her attitude was different. And this time, Fengshi claimed she had hurt his feelings with her words.
But for some reason, he felt their relationship had somehow taken another step forward.
However, he had no intention of revealing it. He believed she would eventually accept him.
Lost in thought, he chuckled to himself.
Hearing the sound, Mu Anxiao frowned. Recalling the situation inside, she quickly turned, raised her hand, and covered Fengshi's mouth, whispering, "No laughing."
Fengshi froze, his eyes wide with alarm as he met Mu Anxiao's gaze. He grunted and reached out to grab Mu Anxiao's wrist.
Mu Anxiao kept her hand firmly over his mouth.
The next second, he started rolling his eyes, as if he were about to die.
Seeing this, Mu Anxiao quickly removed her hand.
Then, Fengshi took several deep breaths of fresh air and whispered, "You want to suffocate me."
"Shh."
Seeing Mu Anxiao's cautious expression, Fengshi pursed his lips, leaned down slightly, and met her vigilant eyes. He whispered, "I know." With that, he straightened up and leaned against the wall.
Mu Anxiao breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the wall as well.
Inside the dilapidated building, the wolf demon and the others remained unaware of Mu Anxiao and Fengshi's presence outside. On the contrary, the wolf demon was smiling as he looked at the male ghost whose arm was being tightly held by the fake Lin Yan. "It seems he is useful to you."
Fake Lin Yan, controlling the male ghost with demonic arts, turned to the wolf demon. "Yes, he is very useful to me." 118
The male ghost was utterly bewildered. Before the ghosts had swarmed and fled, he had made all preparations to escape. Unexpectedly, at the very moment the ghost horde was fleeing, a pair of hands suddenly appeared within the crowd and grabbed him tightly.
From that moment on, he knew he was doomed.
As expected, fake Lin Yan had locked onto him completely.
His current emotions were indescribable. In short, he was prepared to sacrifice half his soul's essence.
"..."
The wolf demon glanced at the male ghost and smiled. "So, out of that group of ghosts, you specifically targeted him." He pointed at the male ghost.
"Yes," fake Lin Yan nodded.
"Alright, as long as you're happy," the wolf demon said, looking at the group of people. "Now, can you let them go?"
Fake Lin Yan followed the wolf demon's gaze to the people trembling and frozen in place, and said, "No."
Upon hearing this, the wolf demon frowned, turned to face fake Lin Yan, and asked, "Why?"
"Because once they leave, they will attract Fengshi and Mu Anxiao. By then, my business will be unfinished."
Fake Lin Yan knew very well that Mu Anxiao was not to be trifled with. If these people were released, they would undoubtedly be in an excited state. If they encountered Mu Anxiao, who knew what nonsense they would blurt out.
By then, his own plans would be ruined, and his chance of survival would diminish. It would be a loss.
Therefore, he insisted on his own idea.
"You're afraid of her too," the wolf demon said with interest.
Fake Lin Yan's gaze flickered evasively. "I'm not afraid of her; I just don't want her to disrupt my plans."
"Oh," the wolf demon nodded, glancing at the group of people. "After your business is concluded, will you release them?"
"Yes."
The moment fake Lin Yan responded, the female ghost suddenly emerged from behind a nearby pillar and said, "You can't let her go." She pointed at the old woman.
The old woman's heart collapsed, her eyes welling up with tears.
Fake Lin Yan: "This, you shouldn't ask me. Ask him." He pointed at the wolf demon.
The wolf demon: "Why did you target her?" The wolf demon had some knowledge of this female ghost's affairs, but even so, he wanted to glean some useful information from her.
The female ghost: "I gave her a chance. She didn't cherish it herself."
"What do you mean?" The wolf demon raised an eyebrow, thinking that he was indeed more useful than Mu Anxiao in this matter.
Unbeknownst to him, Mu Anxiao had already begun listening from outside.
The female ghost lowered her eyelids. "She killed me. No," she looked up at the wolf demon. "She colluded with that man to kill me."
The man she referred to was the dog ghost's second owner.
The wolf demon: "And then?"
"Then," the female ghost said, "I didn't choose to take revenge. I just wanted to be with my dog. However, she didn't give me that opportunity. Since she wouldn't give it to me, I don't have to give it to her either." As she spoke, her eyes began to glow red.
Seeing this, the wolf demon was startled. "You did this." He looked at fake Lin Yan.
Fake Lin Yan glanced at the female ghost and said, "Not me."
"Not you, then who?"
