“Ah, Uncle Hungry Ghost, you really came out…” Little Mifan suddenly looked behind Feng Youran and said, “Uncle Hungry Ghost, my brother won’t be offering you any human meat, so you might as well just dig in!”
Little Mifan said this with a straight face, and Feng Youran suddenly felt a chill run down her back. She even felt a pair of hands tightening around her neck, prompting her to instinctively turn to look behind her.
“Didn’t your mother teach you not to look behind when nothing’s happening? Otherwise, you might be the next one to die, you know?”
Feng Youran instantly froze, her gaze towards Little Mifan now tinged with fear.
Seeing this, Little Mifan curled her lips in satisfaction. After all, this ugly woman had just called her a little brat and threatened her mother; she couldn’t let her off without a lesson!
“By the way, do you want to see what your senior brothers look like?” Little Mifan pointed to the side, her tone ominous.
Feng Youran fearfully turned to look in the direction Little Mifan was pointing. She saw the eight bearers of the palanquin still standing in place, not moving at all, while the gauze curtain fluttered in the wind, faintly revealing the woman inside still in a lazy posture!
However, her five senior brothers were now lifeless, their bodies sprawled across the ground, which was soaked in bright red blood. As the wind blew, a strong stench of blood filled the air!
Feng Youran’s face turned ashen as she struggled to suppress the urge to vomit upon seeing such a gruesome scene.
More importantly, the remains were disappearing one by one right in front of her.
She looked around in terror, realizing there were no other people present!
“Do you hear that? It sounds like something is gnawing on bones. Do you think you’ll be next?” Little Mifan deliberately said.
Feng Youran instinctively strained to listen, and it really seemed like she could hear something. She felt a chill run down her back, cold sweat pouring down as her sense of panic grew stronger.
The eight bearers of the palanquin approached, and Feng Youran couldn’t help but scream, “N-no, don’t kill me! My cousin is Feng Wanqing! You’ve heard of her, right? She’s the daughter of a general from the Beiyue Empire and the adopted daughter of His Majesty of the Shengyuan Empire! She has many powerful masters as her teachers, and even the principal of our Vast Academy is her master! If you kill me, my cousin will ensure you die a horrible death!”
“Oh!” The lazy, mocking voice rang out again. “Such impressive titles! She must be really amazing!”
“Of course!” Feng Youran’s expression was full of pride, as if she were the one being praised. She looked at the person in the palanquin and said, “Do you know what her soul beast is? It’s the famous Lunar Ghost Beast! You’ve probably never even seen a divine beast in your life!”
As she spoke, her tone rose, and she felt a surge of confidence!
“Tch!” Little Mifan scoffed, filled with disdain. That Lunar Ghost Beast actually belonged to her mother; that ugly woman Feng Wanqing was truly shameless!
“But what does that have to do with you?” Feng Siyue’s voice was dripping with mockery!
“I have the best relationship with cousin Wanqing! If you kill me, you’ll be making an enemy of her. Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, she won’t let you go! If you hand over all the treasures you have now and apologize to me, I won’t let my cousin trouble you!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a powerful sword aura shot out from the window of the soft palanquin. She suddenly felt a sharp pain on her face, followed by blood streaming down.
“Ah! My face!”
She had been disfigured!
Feng Siyue’s lips curled into a wicked smile as she said lightly, “Little Mifan, when encountering people like this, it’s better to act than to talk; otherwise, you’re just lowering your own IQ!”
“Okay, Mother, I understand!” Little Mifan replied on the surface, but inwardly she was complaining that she had wanted to act just now, but it was her mother who had stopped her!
“Also, go tie her up. We’re heading to the Vast Academy to meet that renowned genius girl. This is her best cousin, so she’ll surely be willing to pay for her release!”
“Yay, Mother! Are we going to make a big profit again?”
Feng Siyue nodded, “Of course! With so many titles, that genius girl surely won’t be short on money, right? So, when the time comes, we can extort as much as we want!”
Feng Youran stood frozen in place. Was this woman insane? How dare she kidnap her to openly extort her cousin Wanqing!
“Hey, don’t go too far!”
Little Mifan found a sock from somewhere and stuffed it directly into Feng Youran’s mouth, saying softly, “You’re the one going too far, trying to rob even a child’s things!”
With a sock stuffed in her mouth, Feng Youran felt nauseated and glared fiercely at Little Mifan, thinking bitterly that when she saw her cousin, she would make this little brat wish she were dead!
Jiaoyang City, located at the junction of the Beiyue Empire, Shengyuan Empire, and Tiandou Empire, is the most famous city in the Abyss Continent!
It is rich in spiritual energy, and it is said that there are several spiritual veins underground, resulting in an endless supply of spiritual energy.
The number one academy on the continent, the Vast Academy, is located in Jiaoyang City, covering hundreds of acres. Countless talented strong individuals gather here, and even the princes and princesses from various countries take pride in being able to enter the academy!
Currently, the Vast Academy is in its prime, and no sect on the Abyss Continent can rival it; it truly stands out!
However, on this day, people were shocked to see a female student dressed in the Vast Academy’s uniform being dragged behind a palanquin!
The female student had her hands bound and could only follow behind the palanquin. Her mouth was stuffed with something, rendering her unable to speak. Her face was covered in cuts and bruises, with blood slowly oozing out, and her beautiful face had been brutally disfigured!
This was extremely cruel for a girl!
But who was this person? The eight bearers of the palanquin looked eerily identical, so who was the one inside?
Before they could figure it out, someone in the crowd suddenly exclaimed:
“That seems to be Feng Wanqing’s cousin, Feng Youran!”
“What? How bold! How dare they bully the cousin of our Jiaoyang City’s holy maiden!”
“Oh my, the woman in that palanquin is too hateful! How could they ruin her looks like that?!”
Even as the surrounding crowd buzzed with discussions, the eight bearers of the palanquin showed no expression and quickly walked forward, soon moving from one end of the street to the other!
By the time they realized what was happening, they understood that those people were heading to the Vast Academy, so they followed along.
The palanquin stopped at the entrance of the Vast Academy, and two children jumped out. The little boy had a hint of excitement on his face, while the little girl was busy munching on a chicken leg, grease all over her mouth. Their obsidian-like eyes seemed filled with curiosity about everything, making them look soft, adorable, and harmless!
However, the people present were captivated by their Sharkman Silk garments, hair accessories, and belts!
“Heavens, Lapis Lazuli! It’s actually Lapis Lazuli!!”
Suddenly, someone in the crowd gasped in surprise.
“Red defensive monster crystal? Isn’t that a sacred-tier monster crystal? Goodness, who on earth are these two children?”
“You can’t be joking, right?”
