But no one expected that at this critical moment, Chen Bing would suddenly pounce on Lu Chengfu to pry his hand open and snatch the talisman.

Wang Xuewen was dumbstruck, while Jian Chongying and Qi Hao’s faces changed drastically. They were about to help, but who would have thought that Chen Bing, that woman, would fail to snatch the talisman? Like what she had done to Jiang Meng, she suddenly pushed Lu Chengfu fiercely in the direction of that ghost thing.

Seeing the ghost thing lift the blade to chop at Lu Chengfu’s head, Qi Hao, Jian Chongying, and Wang Xuewen were so scared that their hearts were in their throats as they roared, “Be careful, Chengfu!”

Fortunately, Lu Chengfu was clutching the talisman. As soon as the blade slashed down, Lu Chengfu subconsciously blocked it with the hand gripping the talisman.

Another clap of thunder resounded, and a bolt of lightning the width of a thumb struck Jiang Meng’s head on the left, shattering it in an instant. The mournful howl, which was even more piercing than before, rose again, and the ground trembled faintly.

With a clang, the blade crashed to the ground and the crack in it grew bigger.

Taking advantage of this moment, Jian Chongying pulled at Lu Chengfu and hurriedly told everyone to run.

Chen Bing was faster, however. As she ran, she didn’t forget to stare greedily at the talisman in Lu Chengfu’s hand. This time, she clearly saw the power of the talisman that Lu Chengfu was holding. Her eyes were filled with unwillingness and even a bit of hatred and resentment as she looked at Lu Chengfu, wishing she could bore a hole through him with her gaze.

Because she had tried to snatch the talisman just now, Chen Bing didn’t dare follow them, so she had to run in another direction.

Jian Chongying and Qi Hao took in Chen Bing’s poisonous expression and couldn’t help but curse. “Damned wh*re.”

Wasn’t she just a wh*re? No, a wh*ore would still have some compassion, while this woman was even more poisonous. Not only did she cause Jiang Meng harm, she also wanted to hurt Lu Chengfu.

Lu Chengfu couldn’t care less about his lingering fear as he hurriedly followed Jian Chongying and the others.

The four eyes of the ghost thing behind them were venomous and bulged with hatred as it stared unwillingly at their departing figures. It giggled and mumbled, “Die… Die… Die…” The strange sound, coupled with the sound of sawing wood, was especially unpleasant to the ear.

This time, they didn’t dare stop until they got to a drawbridge.

The swaying drawbridge was made of wood. It was held up by rope and looked very dangerous.

Jian Chongying told them to hurry up and cross the bridge. Wang Xuewen, who loved picking up girls the most, had already used up all his strength earlier. He gasped for breath and had yet to recover. Seeing that things weren’t over yet and he still had to run for his life, Wang Xuewen cried with despair in a hoarse voice, “When the hell will this day end?!”

While Wang Xuewen yelled, Qi Hao and Lu Chengfu’s faces were also very unsightly. It was still Jian Chongying who interrupted Wang Xuewen coldly. “Shut up!”

Wang Xuewen and Lu Chengfu were both leaning against the drawbridge’s support. Just as they were about to speak, something suddenly knocked into them. Fortunately, Jian Chongying had been alert the entire time and Qi Hao had quick reflexes, and the two of them quickly pulled at one person each, which was the only reason why Wang Xuewen and Lu Chengfu didn’t fall.

While he didn’t fall, however, one of Wang Xuewen’s shoes fell off. “My shoe…”

He barely said the words, when his shoe touched the water and instantly melted completely, leaving behind water that was still crystal clear.

The four of them were seized with sudden terror.

Scared, Lu Chengfu looked at the drawbridge, only to see that the woman who had knocked into them just now was looking at how the shoe melted away without the least bit of shame. Smug and gloating in their misfortune, she sneered and spat out, “You were lucky,” and continued to laboriously cross the drawbridge.

“Motherf*cker, poisonous bitch!” At that moment, even Lu Chengfu, who was the most cultured of them all, couldn’t help but curse.

This woman had almost killed him several times!

Wang Xuewen also changed his attitude of fawning over a beautiful woman when he looked at her. His heart turned cold at the thought that he had fawned over such a sinister and selfish thing before.

Young Master Qi Hao was furious. “If we f*cking get out of here and she isn’t dead then, I’ll kill her myself! Stay away from this woman from now on!”

Just as Jian Chongying was about to speak, the ghost thing with the blade rushed over with a ghastly expression. Wang Xuewen, Qi Hao and the others were so scared that they immediately turned around and ran toward the drawbridge, but Jian Chongying hurriedly held them back. “Let’s run to the other side!”
