Chapter 772: Chapter 772: Who Are You Two?
"No, no, don’t worry about it," I waved my hands dismissively, retracting my curious gaze.
Yu Rongling kicked a small stone on the ground, "What an idiot. If my sister-in-law was afraid of snakes, would she have married my brother?"
"Seems like she’s just like , quite fond of snakes," Qiu Yuchuan scratched the snake scales on top of his head, saying shyly.
Most people are afraid and wary of snakes; it’s rare to encounter soone who likes them.
A smile spread unconsciously across my face.
The voice of Qiu Yuchuan turned into that of Liu Xianzhi, who curiously asked , "Madam, why do you always wear a veil?"
"My brother is right there, and you’re prying into this; aren’t you asking for trouble?" Yu Rongling said with schadenfreude, eager to see soone else’s misfortune.
Qiu Yuchuan’s knees were shaking, as if he was about to kneel at any mont, "I was just making conversation, it’s not... that serious, right?"
Clearly, Liu Xianzhi was frightened by the dumbass’s threat, and quite badly at that.
"Of course, it’s not that serious, there’s really nothing—just too ugly to et people," I said with a smile, having long ceased to care about the change in my appearance.
Yet Liu Xianzhi thought I was being overly modest, "Madam is being too humble. In the Snake Tribe, those who have seen you all praise you as a peerless beauty."
"One must assu that you’re so beautiful, you have no choice but to cover up," Qiu Yuchuan said, believing he was making a sensible comnt.
It seed this teacher-student duo was determined not to believe I was an ugly monster.
I chuckled dryly, no longer bothering to explain.
The two from the Ten Thousand Poison Hall also didn’t believe it until they saw my face and almost threw up on the spot.
It just shows how terrifying the destructive power of this ugly face can be...
Not far from the foot of the mountain lay a village called Tengshu.
At the entrance of the village hung five dark coffins, suspended by a net made of red ropes.
The net-like red ropes were special Evil-Breaking Seal Forming cords, and the lids of the coffins were all weighed down with fifth-rank Corpse-Suppressing Coins, the highest level for restraining corpses.
The ground was scattered with white joss paper, which flapped and fluttered to my feet with the wind.
Imdiately after, one after another, the white joss paper swirled towards .
It was as if there was sothing special about
that attracted the unseen malevolent spirits.
Yu Longting’s face brimd with killing intent, descending like a wrathful deity reincarnated, instantly stepping in front of
and crushing the pale joss paper beneath his foot.
With him in front of , the joss papers did not dare co any closer, even by half an inch.
"It’s okay, these things can’t hurt , and besides..." I paused, pondering for a mont, "They may not necessarily want to harm ; maybe they just want to seek
out to tell their grievances."
"If they have grievances, they should co to , not harass you. That won’t do," Yu Longting wasn’t joking at all, his eyes flashing with a cold killing intent that made all forms of life instinctively back away.
He really is... a terrifying... guy~
I was filled with a sense of security deep inside, and I cleared my throat, "You’re so intimidating, who would dare seek you out."
"Cough cough cough cough cough~" Behind one of the coffins a fit of violent coughing sounded, and a cold-faced, thin middle-aged man was whittling a wooden spike with a Hunting Knife as he stood up from a long bench behind the coffin.
There were too many coffins hanging nearby, all of them dark and gloomy, easily obscuring such a skinny figure dressed in black trousers and shirt.
The man’s cold gaze swept over
and Yu Longting, singling us out as he asked, "Who are the two of you?"
"I’m Liu Xianzhi, Uncle! I treated your cough last month, rember? I prescribed you a bottle of Fritillaria and Loquat syrup," Liu Xianzhi’s voice was smooth as jade, as he gracefully walked up to the man, elegant and poised.
"Quack doctor, what lousy dicine you prescribed, my cough has gotten worse," the middle-aged man complained, causing Liu Xianzhi’s face to turn red with embarrassnt. Then he turned to
and Yu Longting, "I was asking you two, who are you?"
