The comments section unanimously agreed that Wu Xu was very bad.

And that was indeed the case. The moment the hand seal was completed, the talisman burned to ashes, but the skull face remained unharmed. It even released Cheng Baoni and pounced on him.

Wu Xu was terrified and hurriedly threw out a bunch of talismans, retreating hastily. "Heavenly thunder roars, demons are bound, earth demons are sealed off, so be it!"

"Bang bang bang... bang bang bang..."

A series of lightning bolts struck down fiercely, but the skull-faced creature was clearly prepared.

It dissipated into smoke, nimbly drifted behind Wu Xu, and then quickly condensed into a solid, reaching out to grab his shoulder.

"what--!"

A sharp pain shot through him, and Wu Xu screamed as he collapsed to the ground, his left arm covered in blood.

In his panic, he pulled out a copper bell, but before he could shake it more than a few times, a withered, skeletal claw smashed it to pieces.

The skull-faced man chuckled coldly, leaned forward slightly, and said in an extremely sinister voice, "I originally planned to have my fun first before settling accounts with you, but since you've chosen to die willingly, I'll grant your wish!"

After speaking, it grinned, revealing a row of serrated fangs that hissed and crackled in the wind.

"No! No!" Wu Xu's eyes widened as he scrambled away, crying, "No! It was a misunderstanding! Spare me! Please spare me!"

People always unleash their potential when facing life-or-death situations; his speed is incredibly fast, comparable to a 100-meter sprint.

The skull-faced creature chased after them at a leisurely pace, with a playful, cat-and-mouse attitude, as if teasing an ant.

[Go faster, old man! You'll be the champion of the next marathon!]

[Haha, is this a parkour game? Why not add some obstacles?]

Why is there such a huge difference in the effects of the same talisman?

Hao Jian completely broke down. He buried his head in his knees, trembling as he muttered to himself, "I won't do it again... I'll never do anything bad again... Xiao Ai, please forgive me... cough cough... I will never have the thought of hurting Bao Ni and the baby again... I'm sorry... cough cough cough..."

Hao Jian's voice was very soft, but the microphone clipped to his collar transmitted his words accurately to the live broadcast room.

[Who is "Baby"? Is this a nickname a scumbag gave to a bitch?]

[While answering the questions, Cheng Baoni kept gently touching her abdomen. Is she pregnant?]

[Falling from such a height, the baby definitely wouldn't have survived. She seemed quite calm; she didn't look like she had a miscarriage at all.]

[Oh dear, the production team wouldn't let the guests get hurt. There's probably a foam pad underneath the floor, so even without Cheng Ai's help, a fall wouldn't hurt.]

[That makes sense! So... why did Hao Jian want to kill his own child? Cheng Baoni loves him very much; she couldn't possibly cheat on him!]

Stop talking, it's terrifying to think about.

The chase intensified, and Wu Xu was panting heavily. He dodged while throwing talismans and chanting incantations, but to no avail.

Startled, Song Yifei finally came to her senses. She took the opportunity to run to Zhong Zheyi, who was closest to her, gently tugged at his sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Zheyi, is helping Master Wu escape also part of the mission?"

Zhong Zheyi frowned in deep thought, and after a long while said, "Even if you add points, are you willing to take the risk?"

Song Yifei choked, silently withdrawing her hand, "He has so many talismans... he should be fine... right..."

Oh, right, Sister Xiao Ai also has a talisman!

In the dim light, Song Yifei looked at Cheng Ai.

Seeing that the other person was staring intently at a certain spot on the ground, she helplessly curled her lips and thought to herself, "It seems that the points reward will be in Sister Xiao Ai's pocket again. I'm so envious!"

Song Yifei thought Cheng Ai was thinking of a solution, but little did she know that she was heartbroken over the dirty fan.

The indoor temperature is too high, and she really wants to fan herself to cool it down!

Having narrowly escaped death for the third time, Cheng Baoni collapsed to the ground, clutching her chest and breathing heavily with lingering fear.

Hearing the coughing sound, she struggled to lift her eyes and, disregarding the danger, moved towards the corner of the wall. "Ah...Ah Jian...Are you alright...?"

Hao Jian was so engrossed in fear that he couldn't pull himself out. Suddenly, he was called out, and he shuddered. The liquid flowing from his crotch became even more turbulent.

Just as the camera panned across the screen, netizens burst into laughter:

[Hahaha, can you please stop peeing? You're going to flood the room!]

Cheng Baoni is really good to Hao Jian. I hope he can cherish the person in front of him and stop being fickle and ruining other girls!

[Upstairs, I almost lost control of my 40-meter-long machete.]

[How can one person produce so much urine? It's practically a walking fountain, although the smell is so pungent it's suffocating, cough cough cough.]

Cheng Baoni naturally noticed the water stains at her feet. She took a deep breath, took off Hao Jian's coat and tied it around his waist, then patted his back reassuringly and said softly, "Ah Jian, don't be afraid, I'll stay with you."

She frowned, gritted her teeth, and let out a soft groan.

I think I hit my stomach when I fell, and it's aching now. I hope the baby will be okay.

Wu Xu was nearly seventy years old and his physical strength was failing; he couldn't hold on for long.

He staggered and fell, his white hair disheveled, his long beard stuck around his mouth, looking so pathetic that he had no trace of his former immortality.

"Please, please let me go... All these years, I've been openly and secretly helping Tianshuang and the orphanage... It's my way of atoning for my sins... I know I was wrong..."

Wu Xu knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, tears streaming down his face, wailing pitifully, "Please give me some time... a year... no... half a year... at least let me finish repairing Bai Li... I beg you, Qian Hui..."

[Tian Shuang? Atonement? Qian Hui? Taoist priest, what are you talking about?]

[Quiet down, the director probably thought solving the mystery was boring, so he came up with something new.]

[Grandpa Wu didn't seem to be faking it; he seemed genuinely repenting.]

The skull-faced man grabbed Wu Xu by the collar, slammed him against the wall, and sneered, "Many years ago, did you ever spare our entire family's lives? Everyone except Tian Shuang is dead! You want us to forgive you, huh? Fine! Then you'll have to pay with your life!"

As soon as it finished speaking, it opened its blood-red maw, its sharp teeth gleaming coldly, and without hesitation, it tore down.

[It must be that Master Wu's kowtows weren't loud enough, and the staff didn't feel his sincerity, which is why they continued to punish him.]

[This is unnecessary! Absolutely unnecessary! The entertainment value is enough! Production team, please stop! It's not fair to bully the elderly!]

[Holy crap, I can't watch this! Someone save him!]

Wu Xu's pupils shrank suddenly, Zhong Zheyi was shocked, Song Yifei covered her lips, her heart was in her throat, and Hao Jian sprayed water frantically.

Cheng Baoni kept herself busy, sometimes clutching her bottom, sometimes her stomach, and occasionally acting as a therapist.

Just as the skull-faced creature was about to bite through Wu Xu's throat, Cheng Ai calmly pulled a jade hairpin from her hair and flung it out.

"call out--!"

A dazzling blue light pierced the air, striking the skull's forehead with pinpoint accuracy.

With a piercing scream, it turned into black smoke and disappeared.
