It’s like having a fish bone stuck in your throat. The wife owner looked exasperated. Second Brother Liang, just you wait, when we get back and close the door, see how I’ll settle the score with you! If I don’t squeeze you dry, I won’t be Dong!! The wife owner glared at Shu Yu angrily, but then couldn’t help worrying. This morning, Zhi Chen suddenly transformed into that state, and has yet to recover. Actually, she has a rather reliable conjecture in her heart, but... that is a completely unfamiliar territory she has not yet explored. The Arts of Witch Gu actually refer to the combined terms of witchcraft and Gu Art. Once, Dong Huiying self-studied the Poison Gu Art to understand the Devouring God Gu within her, but she has never learned witchcraft. So far, she has only encountered one wizard, that is Liu Yi, whom she met once in the Desert beyond the Outside. However, Liu Yi is quite peculiar, not only being a wizard but also a Gu Master, proficient in both witchcraft and Gu Art. Shu Yu brought the wife owner, disguised as a man, to a long street. This street seemed slightly desolate compared to other places, even the buildings on both sides appeared very rustic, having gone through decades of weathering and looked like they hadn’t been renovated for a long time. Upon arriving at this long street, Dong Huiying felt a wave of desolation coming towards her. Moreover, although the street was long, there were very few living people. Are there very few people living here? There were a few shops on the street, but looking around, they were either selling funeral clothes or coffins and afterlife money and white candles. Even though the sky was blue, the sun was big, and the sunlight was good, it was silent and desolate here, with a slightly eerie and creepy atmosphere. Shu Yu couldn’t help but slow his pace, he looked back at the wife owner. "Afraid?" Dong Huiying felt a bit uneasy. He shouldn’t have asked, now that he did, she really felt a bit nervous. "Not afraid!" One shouldn’t lose their composure, how can one show cowardice at times ? Shu Yu chuckled, "Here you go." He extended his hand. She blinked, then quietly grasped his hand and slowly swallowed. Shu Yu’s lips curled slightly. This person’s stubborn behavior was unexpectedly amusing. Just like that, she was led forward by Shu Yu, but the longer they walked, the more peculiar the place seemed. For instance, the people living here, though dressed decently, had cold and indifferent eyes. Even, for example, an old man playing chess under a tree, playing against himself, and when Dong Huiying and Shu Yu passed by him, he raised his head with a wooden face, looking at them as if looking at dead people. Dong Huiying furrowed her brows slightly. She had never known there was such a place in South City. Shu Yu grasped her hand with a bit more force, as if wanting to use it to soothe her uneasy heart. "Don’t be afraid, the people here are quite friendly." Second Master, are you joking with me? Which eye of yours sees the people here as friendly? Take that old man just now for instance, his gaze looked like he wanted to eat someone, and clearly, he was quite xenophobic, he rejected us both! Next to the old man was a knife, and it was stained with blood!! Her inner thoughts were in chaos, but outwardly, the wife owner snorted, "There’s nothing to be afraid of, I’m quite brave." Shu Yu’s mouth twitched. You’re brave? If you were really brave, you wouldn’t be clutching onto me, would you?
