sh between male and female, it was too ethereal and illusory, like an instruction suddenly coming from within my brain, impossible to describe."Just now, a voice told me not to run around... What shou..."Huh" I immediately stood up and walked over to him.

He inclined his head slightly, his eyes burning into mine as he murmured, "…What shape was the eye you saw just now"

I tilted my head and thought for a moment: "Its eyes are oval when open, the pupils are very fierce...and it often closes them. Whenever I move, it opens them, and it even sheds blood tears."

"Well, you go back to the Shen residence immediately. No matter what important matters arise, don't concern yourself with them. Wait for me at the small building in the Shen residence."

"Um, okay."

Remember, don't listen if you don't believe.

Jiang Qiyun hadn't spoken to me in this warning tone for a long time.

I kept replaying in my mind one of his glances, the tone of his voice.

It seems like things here aren't simple...

Never mind, just do it his way.

The thin-skinned monkey waited for us outside the parking lot in his silver van. Seeing our cash box, he looked at us suspiciously and asked, "Just this"

"Be content, there are already twenty million here." Dabao disgustingly threw the cash box onto his car: "Skinny monkey, if you want to have a life and spend money, run away quickly, don't look back, this place is abnormal."

The rhesus monkey's face turned pale: "Dude, you're right. I had a feeling that staying here would cost me my life! It's only because of you guys, we wouldn't be in this mess. You guys are definitely not ordinary people! Give us your real names! If anything happens in the future where we can help, we'll go to great lengths for it!"

"My name doesn't matter, my young mistress is surnamed Mu." Dabao waved his hand. "Let's go."

The skinny monkey looked at me: "Miss Mu, half of this money is yours."

"No need, we never sought money in the first place... Skinny Monkey, take my advice..."

"You said, you said!"

"Since you have some sense, you should know that windfalls are meant to be earned and spent according to fate. Figure out for yourself how to use them wisely." I gave him a friendly reminder.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Da Bao flipped down the back seats of the van and put Yanjia's kids and Chong Mo inside. I sat in the second row, and he jumped into the driver's seat and drove towards the Shen family's place.

"Little Empress, you said this Chong Mo is a demon, but to me, he doesn't seem... very scary at all," Dabao said while driving and chatting with me.

"...I think he's both stupid and irritable, and he even had a conflict with Jiang Qiyun—"

Just a moment.

Suddenly, something flashed in my mind!

-----Wasn't Chong Mo's arm cut off by Jiang Qiyun

How, how did this body suddenly get arms!

Wouldn't it be fake! I was deceived!

At this thought, I broke out in a cold sweat and slowly turned back to look at the curled-up Chongmo.

He lay silently behind — a dwelling, to put it bluntly, a corpse.

My phone suddenly vibrated. I had no signal underground just a moment ago, but now all the messages and my brother's call have arrived.

"Hello..." I nervously answered the phone.

"Xiao Qiao, where have you been There's a problem at home!" My brother's voice was loud and booming, making my head throb.

My heart pounded with anxiety, and I quickly asked, "What's wrong at home"

"Where have you been Why didn't you stay home Come back! Come back quickly!"

I was frantic, clutching the phone and asking my brother about what was happening at home, while patting Dabao on the shoulder and preparing to tell him to head back.

As soon as she spoke, a roar suddenly came from behind her: "Mu Xia Qiao!!"

The roar nearly made me drop my phone. I turned around and saw Chongmo lying in the trunk, looking up at me with all his might. His eyes were glowing red.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

"You... what are you doing..." I was a little stunned for a moment.

"Snap out of it! Idiot!" Chong roared.

His roar was deafening, and I suddenly found the buzzing in my head had vanished.

I lowered my head to look at my phone, but there was no call from my brother!

"Did you see anything down there just now" Chong Mo asked in a low voice.

"A gigantic meat eye," I answered honestly.

"Humph... That's a divine artifact. Don't get any illusions, the effects might last for a while, best to stay as far away as possible."

No wonder Jiang Qiyun warned me not to interfere with anything and to go straight to the Shen family without listening.

"Dabao, no matter what happens, head straight to the Shen family! Don't listen to anything I say, even if I tell you to take a detour!" I took two deep breaths, my heart still pounding. I turned to look at Chongmo.

"You, you... aren't you fake too"

"Huh!" Chong's anger started to rise.

"Your arm... I remember it being cut off by Jiang Qiyun..."

"Mumbling smirked and said, “Then why don’t you check to see Illusions can be dispelled by exorcism talismans. You should have some on you, right”

He was bound by Jiang Qiyun's talisman, and he thought he couldn't break free. I held the talisman for warding off evil spirits and purifying filth in my hand and slapped it onto his forehead.

Who knew, in a moment of silence, he suddenly ducked his head and hit him right on the shoulder.

The car was swaying as it moved, and with a jolt, half of his arm came off at the shoulder!

"AAAAAAAAAAAH!!! " I nearly died of fright — this is really a corpse!

Dàbǎo was startled by my shout, and the car almost ran off the road!

"Hahaha... Stupid~" Chongmo laughed and couldn't help but tease me.

"Your arm fell off, and you're still smiling!" I almost died of fright.

"This is a find." He said with a sneer.

I almost had a nosebleed, what arm can be "picked" up!

"

Chong Mo was bound by the curse and unable to move. He grumbled, shifting his head slightly, and said: 'Looking at your stupid act is annoying! Hurry up and help me up.'

"

"Don't move! Just lie still for me!"

"This is fake, fake! Look carefully!" Chong Mo cried out.

I had the eldest turn on the light and used my phone as a flashlight too.

His fallen arm had clear marks at the joint, as if it were from a mannequin's arm.

“I once saw a fake corpse in an abandoned building. I wouldn't have been able to bring it back to life, but with a bit of magic and some disguises, I could easily fake an arm… After all, people with one arm tend to stand out more in this world.” Chong Mo explained calmly.

This jerk, trying to scare me for fun

"I'm helping you! You almost fell victim to that mental confusion just now! Those eyes are magical artifacts from the Demon Realm… they were actually brought here" Chong Mo muttered softly.

"What kind of divine artifact" I calmed myself down and motioned for Dabao to continue on.

"In the South Ming's Return to Ruins, there was a Siren Dragon. Before, because of a fight, it injured one eye. The Siren Pearl stained with malicious energy fell into the Demon Realm." Chong Mo uncomfortably moved his head.

Mirage Dragon

"The Mirage Dragon was proud and bad-tempered, its eyes tainted with murderous intent were discarded in the Demon Realm. Anyway, it would grow back after cultivating for a thousand or eight hundred years... This Mirage Pearl gradually changed in the Demon Realm, but unexpectedly it was moved here... It seems that some people are stirring behind the scenes." (us) now (corpse)I turned my head and ran toward the side without a wall lamp. The puddle on the ground once again solidified into an oval-shaped head, suddenly erupting like a giant python lunging a...
