Zhang San was a wolf demon who had been banished to the realms of beasts and hungry ghosts.
It wasn't just because he was inherently cruel, specializing in abducting children to satisfy his hunger. He was also a real - life lecher.
After being punished by the clan chief, with one of his heads shattered, in order to vent his anger, he sneaked out of the deep mountains. He not only stole children from the village to fill his belly but also transformed into a scabby stray dog and sneaked into farmers' houses to defile the girls in the village.
That was why the clan chief, Cang Shuo, finally made up his mind to get rid of him.
And that was also why Zhang San colluded with the Lu family from far - away Runan, almost wiping out the entire wolf clan.
The most powerful clan chief of the wolf clan, a legendary powerhouse with incredible cultivation, couldn't resist the temptation of beauty either. He was captured through internal treachery, skinned, his bones broken, and even his demon core was stolen...
Thinking of this, Zhang San couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, showing a cruel smile.
The black mist changed shape, stretching out human - like hands and lunging towards me.
In his eyes, I was just like a piece of fat meat ready to be devoured.
"Xiyu!!"
"Little girl!"
Li Hui and Huang Mao, who had just arrived, exclaimed at the same time. Even Peng Yaozu behind them couldn't help crying out "Ah".
But I suddenly seemed to be in a state of meditation. Wherever my eyes fell, Zhang San's gaping mouth looked ridiculously slow - motion.
There was a slight numbness in my arm. It was as if something had wrapped around it and lifted it up completely out of my control... and then it reached into his mouth.
"Click", "Click". With two soft sounds, my fingers had already broken off two dagger - like sharp fangs from Zhang San's mouth.
"Ow!"
This was the second time Zhang San's soul body had been injured, and it was more serious than the first time when Baby had bitten through his eyeball.
Even he himself couldn't believe it. He had absorbed all the divine consciousness of the Yin - Division official. He was no longer the same as before. How could he still be seriously injured by a human woman?!
Teeth and claws were the weapons of wild beasts. Zhang San finally got scared. Howling, he retreated and scurried up the wall.
Unexpectedly, a golden figure like a lightning bolt suddenly appeared on the top of the wall. Baby had transformed into her original form. She opened her pointed mouth and pounced on Zhang San's throat to bite.
Zhang San was even more surprised. Afraid that we had more tricks up our sleeves, he threw Baby off and scurried into the dense forest without looking back!
"Where do you think you're going!!"
Baby didn't care that she had been thrown onto the flower - wall. Her hind legs were abnormally twisted, but she still chased after him like a madwoman.
"Baby, come back!! You're not..."
I didn't know what had gotten into Baby. I wanted to call her back, but her figure had already disappeared beyond the high wall.
"Hey hey hey!! Little girl!"
Before I could chase after her, Huang Mao grabbed my arm. "You... you're just an ordinary person. How could you have the ability to damage a spiritual soul body? Let me take a look!!"
Saying that, he turned over my palm.
In my palm were two sharp fangs as long as my palm. In the slanting sunlight, they gradually turned into wisps of black air and disappeared.
I stared at my empty palm, still a bit dazed.
The action of breaking off Zhang San's fangs just now wasn't something I did!
At that time, I didn't have time to draw a protective talisman. Suddenly, there was a searing pain in my left chest, as if something was trying to break out from my heart. Then, my right hand seemed to be grabbed by someone and reached straight into the wolf's mouth, easily pulling out those two fangs.
When I pulled my fingers back, I vaguely saw a few faint blue - purple glows around my fingertips...
"Xixi, quick!! Hurry and call someone!"
Li Hui was already incoherently panicked. A large piece of skin on my right arm was torn, and the blood was gushing out, looking extremely shocking.
Peng Yaozu had already regained his calm and began to direct the security guards and staff who were still able to move. He was rescuing the injured and contacting the police at the same time. After all, there were casualties. If it wasn't resolved quickly, there would probably be endless troubles later.
"Miss Lu..."
I was sitting on the stone steps. The Peng family's private doctor was bandaging my wound.
Peng Yaozu finally finished arranging the important matters. Having some free time, he walked over to us.
"Miss Lu, I misjudged you."
There was a hint of apology on his slightly chubby face. He said sincerely, "Thank you for saving our Peng family. I've already heard from A Hui about your matter with A Cheng... I will do my best..."
Seeing that I showed no expression and just stared at him with my dark eyes, Peng Yaozu finally blushed a little. "Don't misunderstand. This isn't a trade - off! Your great kindness to our Peng family, I, Peng Yaozu, and my descendants will always remember. From now on, no matter what happens, our Peng family will firmly stand by your side!!"
"Thank you."
I then stood up from the ground, feeling a sense of relief in my heart.
With the promise of the Peng family, there might be a glimmer of hope in Gu Fancheng's lawsuit!!
Just as I was talking to Peng Yaozu, I saw Peng Jiarui striding out angrily from a room in the ancestral hall.
Peng Jiarui was also injured in the chaos just now.
In order to protect the unconscious Peng Zhenzhu, he was hit on the head by a tile that fell from the roof. Now he was wrapped in a bandage and rushed over to us as if avoiding a plague god.
"Jiarui!!"
Behind him was the pitiful Gu Jiachen.
Her extremely high - quality evening dress was a bit messy, and she had lost one of her diamond earrings. It was obvious that she had been pushed around badly in the chaos just now.
"Don't be like this. I was wronged, just like you!"
She said in a trembling voice, with two lines of clear tears hanging on her cheeks. "Now, you know how vicious those magazines are! They're all made - up things. You can't treat me like this!!"
"..."
Peng Jiarui's face was ashen, but he had nothing to say in reply.
"Jiajia."
Peng Yaozu beside me finally spoke. He just realized that Gu Jiachen's appearance at the Peng family's ancestral hall was extremely strange.
During the New Year, except for the pre - arranged visiting times, the major wealthy families wouldn't come to cause trouble on the day of sacrifice.
"Why aren't you at your own home? I remember that in previous years at this time, the Gu family was also on the mountain to offer sacrifices, right?!"
Unexpectedly, after hearing Peng Yaozu's words, Gu Jiachen finally couldn't help sobbing. "Uncle Peng, our Gu family... is in complete chaos now! My third brother... my full - blooded older brother, actually wants to send me to a mental hospital. If I hadn't been a bit smart and escaped in time, maybe... maybe I would have been imprisoned in a ward and become a real madwoman!!"
While crying, she looked at Peng Yaozu pleadingly with her tear - filled eyes. "Uncle Peng, our Gu family is almost falling apart. I... I don't want my future husband's family to end up like the Gu family now..."
