It was a pity that Chef Li underestimated this woman’s greed. In Yang Zhaoning’s eyes, there naturally couldn’t be too many treasures; if these two ghosts really were still hiding some treasures, wouldn’t she suffer a terrible loss?
Besides, if killing the little ghost meant she could obtain treasure, her master wouldn’t blame her for it.
Yang Zhaoning stepped forward. Chef Li, who was tied up with a Ghost Binding Rope, broke out in a cold sweat when he saw the woman approach Xiao Yu.
He didn’t know where he got the strength from, but he suddenly fell sideways as the woman approached Xiao Yu. He went all out and tried to bite Yang Zhaoning’s ankle. Yang Zhaoning sensed the old ghost’s intention and quickly retreated. She said coldly with some killing intent, “You old ghost, since you want to die, I’ll fulfill your wish!”
Without thinking, she tightened her grip on the whip and ruthlessly swung it at the reckless old ghost.
Chef Li thought that he was dead for sure. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes to bear the force of the whip. The only thing he regretted now was not getting Xiao Yu to run away with the Ninth Prince back then. Otherwise, this child wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Just then, something struck Yang Zhaoning’s wrist, and the whip flew out of her hand. Yang Zhaoning was alarmed. “Who?”
Chi Shuyan’s eyes swept over Chef Li and Xiao Yu’s tragic states. She caught the whip in the air, and without thinking, lashed out at the Yang woman with all her might.
The strength of her lashes weren’t something Yang Zhaoning could match, and her speed was even more astonishing.
Before Yang Zhaoning could see who it was, the whip came down first.
This whip landed on Yang Zhaoning with a loud smack, and a scream like that of a pig being slaughtered rang out. She flew back a few meters and smashed into a wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Chi Shuyan didn’t care if the Yang woman spat out blood or not. She strode over, raised the whip, and lashed out a few more times, hitting Yang Zhaoning until she wailed and begged for mercy. Her clothes were torn open and her flesh bled. Unable to bear the pain, her vision turned black and she fainted.
Chef Li opened his eyes in disbelief to see that Miss Shuyan had come to save them.
Chef Li was so excited that his neck turned red. He said excitedly, “Miss Shuyan! Miss Shuyan! You’re here!”
There was hope. God, they were saved!
Chef Li looked agitatedly at Xiao Yu, whose face was completely pale.
Chi Shuyan flicked out a talisman. The Ghost Binding Rope immediately untied itself when the talisman touched it.
Chef Li immediately picked up Xiao Yu. Seeing that his body was becoming more and more transparent, Chi Shuyan couldn’t be bothered to continue hitting the Yang woman.
She motioned for Chef Li to open the little guy’s mouth, and she popped a pill inside. Although the little guy was on the verge of death, he was still breathing. After swallowing the pill, his face immediately looked much better. Chef Li heaved a sigh of relief and immediately said to Chi Shuyan, “Miss Shuyan, Xiao Yu is much better!”
Seeing that the little guy’s face had improved a lot, Chi Shuyan was relieved, and flicked another pill at Chef Li.
But she didn’t forget how vicious that woman surnamed Yang had been just now.
She would settle old and new scores together.
Yang Zhaoning was a Celestial Master, after all, and her physique was much better than that of an ordinary person. Although Chi Shuyan had beaten her half to death just now, Yang Zhaoning woke up groggily and saw the woman walk over with the whip. She shuddered and recognized Chi Shuyan. Her eyes were filled with fear and hatred. “It’s you? How dare you… touch me? My… my master won’t let you off!”
