“Then what are we waiting for?” Anya quickly stood up and started counting excitedly. “I want to eat starfruits, cherries, grapes, oranges…”
Chu Luo: “…”
Chu Luo was silent for a few seconds before suddenly asking her, “Have you heard of this saying in the empire?”
“What?”
“Aman whose heart is not content is like a snake which tries to swallow an elephant.”
Anya looked confused. “What do you mean?”
Chu Luo looked at her with bright eyes. “You can study the ancient literature of the empire well. The ancient literature of the empire is broad and profound. You will definitely fall in love with it.”
Anya was stunned. “Really? Coincidentally, I’m going to give Baby prenatal education next. In that case, I’ll learn the ancient empire language.”
Chu Luo smiled.
However, she still went out to conjure two orange trees for Anya. It was the season for orange trees to mature. Chu Luo went out to pluck two for Anya.
As Anya peeled the orange, she asked, “Is it sour? If not, I won’t eat it.”
This woman was really difficult to please.
“It’s sour.”
After Anya was satisfied with the food, Chu Luo said to her, “I see that there’s nothing in the courtyard. What flowers do you like? I’ll help you conjure them. This will be good for your mood.”
“I like roses. Really red ones.”
“Okay.”
The two of them stood by the door and didn’t go out. Chu Luo conjured two large stretches of roses in this courtyard.
“Chu, since you can use magic to conjure these, why did you hire workers to decorate your wedding hall?”
“My family is so rich. Why shouldn’t I spend it?”
Anya felt jealous again. She looked at the roses outside and wished she could go out and smell the fragrance of the flowers. Chu Luo stopped her.
Chu Luo stayed there until nine o’clock when she suddenly received a call from Sun Tianhao.
Sun Tianhao’s voice sounded anxious and a little irritable. “Sister, come over quickly. There are actually a few people with special abilities here. Many of the people we brought have been tricked and entered the ghost wall.”
Chu Luo frowned slightly and asked, “How’s Yan’s third aunt now?”
Sun Tianhao: “Don’t worry, we’ll protect Third Madam well.”
Chu Luo nodded. “I’ll be right there.”
With that, she hung up.
She had just hung up when Li Yan called again.
Li Yan said, “Luoluo, where are you? I’ll come look for you immediately. We have to go to the suburbs.”
Chu Luo said, “I’m accompanying Anya.”
Li Yan: “T’ll be there soon.”
Chu Luo stood up and said to Anya, “Anya, I’m going out for a while.”
Anya knew that she had something to attend to and nodded. “Go ahead. It’s time for me to video-call my mother too.”
Chu Luo left.
She had just walked out of the courtyard door when a car drove over.
Li Yan was wearing a casual outfit. After getting out of the car, he said to her, “Luoluo, teleport us there directly. It’s too slow to drive over.”
Chu Luo nodded and held his hand. The two of them walked to a remote spot and disappeared.
The cold wind blew in the suburbs. Third Madam’s residence was in a farm near the foot of the mountain.
This farm belonged to the Li family, and the food produced here was supplied to the Li residence and the employees’ cafeteria at Blazing Glory’s headquarters.
There were street lights everywhere, and a large circle of sharp fences and protective netting at the foot of the mountain. The purpose was to prevent wild beasts that ran out of the mountains from rushing into the crops or thieves that came in to steal things.
Other than the protective fence, there were also people patrolling here.
Chu Luo and Li Yan appeared in a forest a kilometer away from Third Madam’s residence.
The courtyard in front was brightly lit with figures floating around.
The two of them looked at each other. Chu Luo asked, “Are we going over now or do we wait?”
Li Yan listened to the nearby commotion for a while before saying, “Deal with the people lying in ambush here first.”
As they spoke, their bodies quickly moved between the trees.
After a while, the two of them stopped at the same time and saw a figure flash past.
Li Yan gestured to Chu Luo, who nodded.
The two of them walked in one direction each.
Soon, Chu Luo stopped that figure. “Hey, why did you come to my manor?”
That person suddenly stopped in his tracks. One couldn’t see his expression in the forest, but Chu Luo could feel the murderous aura emanating from his body.
That person attacked Chu Luo without a word.
Chu Luo was a little surprised. “Didn’t they say that bad people talk a lot of nonsense? You actually didn’t even say a word of nonsense.”
‘As she spoke, Li Yan threw out a thin whip from the other side.
The sound of the whip wasn’t obvious in this fruit forest, but that person heard it.
He turned around and quickly dodged behind a tree.
However, his speed couldn’t compare to Li Yan’s.
Li Yan’s whip was actually a feint. It was as if he had expected him to dodge over there and the next whip followed.
Hu ~ Pa~
“Ooh…”
Seeing that person’s figure sway, Li Yan retracted his whip and a gun appeared in his hand.
No sound came out.
With a plop, the person fell.
Li Yan put away his gun and walked to the corpse with Chu Luo.
Li Yan searched his body under the moonlight before standing up.
Chu Luo looked at the metal symbol in his hand and was a little curious. “What is this?”
“Something from a gangster organization.”
Chu Luo frowned. “Looks like those people spent a lot of effort to get what they wanted. There are people from the underworld here, and people with special abilities on Haozi’s side. These people really spared no expense to take Third Aunt away.”
At this point, she suddenly smiled. “It’s my turn to play with those experts.”
She then took out a talisman and threw it to the side. Another Li Yan appeared.
Talisman Li Yan walked towards the forest where Third Madam was.
Then, the two of them concealed themselves and followed.
After walking for a while, the sound of a bullet tearing through the air came from the side, heading towards Talisman Li Yan.
Li Yan’s figure flashed and he disappeared behind a forest. It was unknown if the person on the other side had hit him.
However, Chu Luo and Li Yan had already found the person who fired and dealt with him.
Then, in ten minutes, the two of them killed more than ten people before they killed all the people lying in ambush in the forest.
They quickly walked out of the fruit garden.
Opposite the fruit garden was a wheat field. It was winter for wheat and had yet to germinate. The entire field looked bare.
The two of them were invisible and weren’t worried about being seen.
Past this field was another forest of cranberry trees. There were the most people there, and it was obviously a place that had a ghost wall.
When the two of them walked nearby, Li Yan asked Chu Luo, “Where is Sun Tianhao?””
“probably in Third Aunt’s house.” Chu Luo sensed it. “He has the talisman I gave him previously. When faced with such a situation, the talisman will protect him.”
Chu Luo had given them the talisman when they returned from the desert.
“Can you tell what kind of ghost wall this is? Is the person who created the ghost wall around?”
Chu Luo stood there and looked at it for a while before saying, “There’s more than one person. This is a ghost wall array.”
The two of them walked over and quickly arrived near the ghost wall.
At this moment, Talisman Li Yan happened to walk over.
Chu Luo said, ‘T’ll let him in. Those people who set up the wall array will give themselves away. Go to Third Aunt’s courtyard and meet up with Haozi and the others. I’ll deal with these people.”
Chu Luo gave Li Yan a bell. “Shake the bell and you’ll appear.”
“Okay.”
After Li Yan left, Chu Luo watched as Li Yan walked towards the invisible barrier.
This ghost wall was different from ordinary ghost walls. Once a person entered, the people outside wouldn’t be able to see them. However, they had to continuously meet all kinds of people inside and fight and kill those people. In the end, they would be exhausted or trapped to death by the despair in their
hearts.
After Talisman Li Yan entered, those people indeed became a little arrogant and exposed themselves.
At this moment, Chu Luo quickly took out a few beads and flicked them in different directions.
“Break!”
With a cracking sound, the array formation was broken and everyone who had entered appeared.
‘When those experts saw that the array formation had been broken, they knew that someone had come.
They launched into action again.
Chu Luo didn’t hide anymore. She appeared and said to the people who came out, “Everyone, leave quickly.”
‘When everyone saw that it was Chu Luo, they didn’t hesitate to run towards Third Madam’s residence.
Chu Luo walked up to the experts.
One of them looked shocked. “Chu Luo!”
“Looks like I’m very famous.”
Chu Luo took out a talisman and said under the shocked and frightened gazes of the experts, “Since you have fallen into my hands, forget about leaving tonight.”
“Aren’t you going to ask who invited us?”
“What’s there to ask? Yan can find out anyway. On the other hand, didn’t you think that you would meet me when you were invited?”
After Chu Luo asked straightforwardly, she threw the talisman above their heads.
“Since you’re here, I’ll definitely welcome you in the warmest way.”
Rumble!
Rumble!
With the support of the High Priestess’s priest power, Chu Luo’s current Lightning Talisman was much more powerful than before.
Those experts couldn’t withstand it at all and quickly pleaded.
“Ahhh… Master Chu, please let me off.”
“Let you off? You should have known that you would be dealt with when you came. But don’t worry, I’ll leave you alive. As for whether you still have any special abilities in the future, it depends on your luck.”
Rumble! Rumble!
“Ahhh…”
Chu Luo waited for these people to be struck by lightning until their faces were covered in dust. After they were unable to retaliate, she prepared to turn around and walk towards Third Madam’s courtyard when she suddenly felt a very powerful sense of crisis.
When a cannonball flew over, her figure flashed.
Boom!
As the world shook, the cannonball hit the group of experts.
The group of experts was killed just like that. There wasn’t even a corpse. Chu Luo raised her hand to cover her eyes and couldn’t bear to look at them.
At that moment, the sound of cannon fire came from the courtyard.
The ground shook again.
Chu Luo’s heart tightened.
She lifted her legs and ran over with Qinggong.
“Yan!”
Chu Luo looked at the collapsed house and the dilapidated courtyard and her heart skipped a beat. After a red light, the courtyard was surrounded by a powerful red light.
Then, red light spread out.
A few seconds later, silence returned.
“Yan!”
Chu Luo shouted again in the courtyard.
After a while, Li Yan, Qin Ming, and Sun Tianhao came out of the ruins of the house.
The three of them looked a little ashen.
Chu Luo was delighted and ran over to throw herself into Li Yan’s arms.
Li Yan hugged her tightly. He knew that she was very worried just now and quickly patted her back. “Luoluo, don’t be afraid. I’m fine.”
“Mm.” Chu Luo actually knew that he was fine, but at that moment, worry and fear surged in her heart.
Sun Tianhao was jealous of the two of them, so he deliberately cleared his throat as a reminder. When Chu Luo looked at him, he asked with a straight face, “Sister, aren’t you going to ask if I’m okay?”
Chu Luo came out of Li Yan’s arms and asked, “Are you okay?”
“Cough, cough…” Chu Luo really asked. Not used to it, Sun Tianhao dusted himself off and said, “I’m fine.”
Li Yan glanced at Sun Tianhao and asked Chu Luo, “How are the others?”
“They’re all under my control.”
When Sun Tianhao heard this, he immediately shouted, “Go find all those people.”
After a while, there was no response from outside at all. Instead, some bodyguards and guards came out of the ruins.
Sun Tianhao was shocked to see that everyone outside had been sacrificed. He quickly said to them, “Go and see what’s going on. Be careful.”
Qin Ming also gestured for the bodyguards to investigate.
The group of people quickly dispersed.
Only then did Chu Luo have a chance to tell him, “Haozi, I didn’t just control those people just now. I controlled everyone.”
Sun Tianhao heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank god. Thank god.”
At this moment, Qin Ming said to Li Yan, “There are a total of 15 batches of people here tonight. These people are assassins. Those experts were also hired.”
“Hmph!”
‘When he heard this, Sun Tianhao smirked. “Looks like there are many people who have designs on you. No wonder when I first heard your name, many people said that you were a cold-blooded and ruthless tyrant… But I understand now. It’s because you’re too rich. Indeed, humans shouldn’t be too rich!”
The three of them looked at Sun Tianhao at the same time.
Sun Tianhao looked at the three of them in confusion. “Am I wrong? It’s all because Li Yan is too rich. Oh right… Also, why did Blazing Glory Corporation develop something that even the country can’t develop for no reason? Isn’t this asking to be targeted by others?”
‘At this moment, two people walked over at the same time.
“Master, Boss, none of those we found is able to move.”
“Young Master Sun, everyone is standing there and can’t move.”
Everyone subconsciously looked at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo said to the people who returned, “Get rid of those killers first.”
The bodyguard immediately followed her instructions and left.
The guard stood there and looked at Sun Tianhao, waiting for him to speak.
Sun Tianhao was displeased. He glared at her. “Didn’t you hear what my sister said? Hurry up and do as she says.”
“Yes.”
At the same time, Sun Tianhao’s phone rang. He took it out and glanced at it. He said to the two of them, “It’s from my father.”
After saying that, he picked up the call. It was unknown what Third Master Sun asked, but Sun Tianhao quickly replied, “Yes.”
The other party quickly hung up. Sun Tianhao told them, “My father asked if that red light was caused by my sister just now..”
