My lady, don't be angry. I'm letting you touch my big tail.

In the end, it was Old Man Qiao who came out and altered Qiao Zan's clothes so that Qiao Zan could barely wear them.

Joey pressed on Hua Ran's philtrum to wake him up.

Under the haze, life is peaceful and serene.

Where is Qiao Zan?

Hua Ran asked.

"He and the love tree are gone."

Joey answered.

Then the flower-dyed fox tail swayed gently and wrapped around Joey's neck.

He said, "Would you like to have your fortune told for them?"

"It's over. Both of them encountered undesirable romantic prospects."

Hua Ran pouted, "Then my clothes..."

"Buy a new one, no, what do you mean by lending him that?"

Hua Ran tilted her head and snuggled her little head with fox ears into Qiao Yi's arms.

"Did I borrow that? I opened the wardrobe and let him choose, I was just being polite... who knew he would pick my favorite set."

Joey chuckled.

Take a picture of the flowers and dye them, "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, let's get up and eat roast chicken."

Hua Ran rolled around on the bed, hugging her own tail.

Then there's Qiao Zan and Qing Shu, this combination is hilarious and wonderful.

Qing Shu walked along the road, with Qiao Zan beside him, who made him feel incredibly safe.

But Qing Shu wasn't familiar with Qiao Zan, so he asked, "Qiao Yi's older brother, why did you choose me over so many other people?"

Love Tree knows its place all too well.

That means you have no presence.

So when Qiao Zan chose him, he was secretly happy.

Am I exceptionally gifted?

Could it be that my shining point has finally been discovered?

I'm no longer invisible! I'm someone people will remember!

So that Joey's family won't always forget to set his table during holidays!

If he doesn't come out, no one will ever call him.

Even after knowing Joey and Fox for so many years, only the twins would ask, "Doesn't Uncle Love Tree need to eat? Why isn't he at the same table as us?"

Thinking of this, Qing Shu wanted to clench her fists and shed tears like noodles.

Am I really that invisible?!

Qiao Zan coughed. "The reason I chose you is because they're all in pairs. If you're going to take Hua Ran, you have to take Qiao Yi; if you're going to take Inugami, you have to take Inugami's sister. I can't take care of kids, can I? I can't take good care of little kids either."

Only you! Only you can make me feel at ease, ensure I have no worries about food, and you even have a decent appearance..."

The love tree is turning to stone!

"You chose me because I'm invisible, because I'm single?"

"Well...you could say that..."

Joe Zan stated it bluntly.

The love tree is heartbroken!

He was determined to make Jozan remember his strengths on this journey.

Then he exclaimed "Ouch!"

He stepped on a hidden array, and the ground suddenly sank, causing him to fall in.

"Oh no... I was so focused on my thoughts that I didn't see the trap! Brother Qiaozan, save me! I'm just a tree, I can't protect myself at all!"

The love tree thought it would keep falling, falling...

But the truth is that he only fell slightly before Qiao Zan grabbed his collar.

Then I simply put my arm around him and held him close to my chest.

The ground continued to sink, forcing Qiao Zan to retreat while still holding onto the Love Tree.

Finally, the ground subsidence stopped.

Love Tree felt like his head was about to collapse.

It was squeezed by Joezan's upper arm muscles.

Qiao Zan finally released his arm and asked, "Are you alright? Be careful, we're already inside the circle of the anomalies."

Because Qiaozan no longer uses his previous body, Zanzan cannot currently transfer to his current body.

He was therefore unable to use the location function.

We can only rely on perception and divination based on yin and yang to deal with unusual phenomena.

Joey is also trying to find a solution.

After all, three systems now reside in her consciousness space, one supporting three, causing the processor to lag a bit.

She also thought about returning Zan Zan Tong to Qiao Zan.

However, the skin and brain of the Candle Dragon are different from those of humans, so Joey cannot send the chip deep into its soul at present.

After Qiao Zan finished recalling, he took a deep breath and saw that Qing Shu was swaying as he walked.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Did you fall under some kind of spell? I don't feel anything."

"I'm not under a spell, my brains are about to be crushed out of my body by your massive arm..."

"Do trees have brains?"

Knowing he was in the wrong, Qiao Zan coughed.

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, but we need to be careful from now on."

Even before entering the city center, just in the suburbs, Qiao Zan felt something was wrong.

The collapsed area was emanating a bloody, yin aura.

Qiao Zan and Qing Shu exchanged a glance. "Shall we go down and take a look?"

Qing Shu hesitated for a moment, "Then can you protect me?"

Qiao Zan said no problem, since he invited Qing Shu out, she would naturally protect him.

Furthermore, Chongqingshu displayed incredibly impressive muscles.

"I can send ordinary ghosts to the afterlife with a single punch, hahaha, pure physical exorcism."

Qing Shu twirled a strand of her dark green hair with her fingers.

Although he couldn't understand many of the words, he could still manage to understand them.

"Alright, let's go down then. Let me tell you, my current ability is that I can see whether other people's emotions are genuine or fake, and I can probably also distinguish between fake people who are being impersonated by magic. Other than that, that's all."

Qiao Zan said that it doesn't matter whether the love tree is there or not, as long as it is obedient.

If you encounter any danger and Qiao Zan says not to move, then you absolutely must not move!

After Qing Shu nodded, the two walked into the collapsed area.

It started as just a few dry bones.

The further you go in, the more bones you find, proving that many people have died here.

Love Tree wasn't afraid, because he had seen even more dead people when he was in the secret realm at the bottom of the river.

But the further in you go, the more blood gushed out.

At first, it was just a shallow layer under the feet.

Afterwards, soak the feet in the bloody stool.

Qiao Zan told Qing Shu not to leave yet. He squatted down, reached out and touched it, saying, "It's not real blood, it's the blood of the dead."

Or perhaps it's filth formed from resentful energy; in any case, if I use my yang energy to block it, these things won't get close to us.

After saying this, he took out a talisman from his pocket, silently recited a spell, and the patterns on the talisman emitted a faint light.

Qiao Zan takes one card, and Qing Shu takes one card.

Sure enough, no matter where they went, the disgusting blood would only stay two inches away from their feet.

If you go any further, you'll be in a very deep place.

With Jozan's hearing, he could even hear people walking around and vendors hawking their wares above.

In other words, they went down to the bottom of the entire county town by following the subsidence area through the outskirts.

Just then, a sound came from inside.

It was a woman's voice.

Qing Shu was so frightened by what she heard that she jumped up and clung to Qiao Zan's arm.

Qiao Zan raised his hand, and good heavens, he pulled the love tree off the ground.

The two remained silent for a while before pursing their lips and saying something.

"Are you so strong?"

"You're so light?"
