Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

Wu Zhao asked, puzzled, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

When the ancient artifact was first unearthed, the ancient ancestor did not understand it.

Gu Chen explained to her, "It's just a few people going to a relatively deserted mountain for a few days, and then many people will be able to see you on TV."

"If you're bored, you can go and have some fun."

After returning from Pearl Island, she seemed preoccupied and unhappy. Gu Chen noticed this but didn't ask.

Maybe going out for a walk will make me feel better?

"No interest." Wu Zhao shook her head. She had finally escaped from that hellish place, the Yellow Springs Yin Gate, so why would she want to go back into the deep mountains and forests?

Seeing her refusal so decisively, Huo Tingchen breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that this big shot might accidentally do something inexplicable during the live stream.

Just thinking about that scene makes his heart tremble.

“Then I contacted the producer directly and declined,” Huo Tingchen said.

Wu Xingyun glanced at his phone, then leaned close to Wu Zhao and whispered, "The Yan family called me again, saying that Uncle Yan... Yan Bin has been hospitalized with a heart attack."

"Yan Xuzhe has disappeared without a trace. The other party checked the surveillance footage and saw us, saying that we were the ones who harmed Yan Bin..."

Wu Zhao snorted coldly: "You're quite good at turning the tables."

She twirled the ring and said, "Tell the Yan family to make preparations for Yan Binyang's longevity as soon as possible. What you owe others, you will eventually have to repay."

“…Okay.” Wu Xingyun nodded. “Don’t worry, these words were spoken by the Wu family and have nothing to do with you.”

Watching him turn around to make a phone call, Wu Zhao couldn't help but find it a little funny.

This silly child, is what the Wu family said different from what she said...?

Gu Chen sat in his wheelchair, quietly watching her back, a knowing look welling up in his eyes.

...She really does care more about her family. Gu Chen sighed.

Ignored, Huo Weiwei snorted in dissatisfaction: "I don't know why Jiaojiao is so kind as to bring you along on the show. She's a popular and talented actress, and you're not even giving her face."

Wu Zhao said with a smile, "What happens to her has nothing to do with me. Just a friendly reminder: don't get close to Shen Jiaojiao, or you'll become unhappy."

"You're so ungrateful! If you don't want to go, fine, I'll go with Jiaojiao anyway."

Huo Weiwei finished speaking with dissatisfaction, turned around, and went upstairs.

Seeing her somewhat angry figure, Wu Zhao's eyes darkened.

I told you not to get close to Shen Jiaojiao, it really will bring you misfortune...

"What's wrong?" Gu Chen asked upon hearing her sigh.

Wu Zhao helped him into his wheelchair and asked, "If your precious little girl were to lose an arm or a leg, what would your family do...?"

"What did you say?!" Huo Tingchen, who had just rejected the producer, almost jumped up when he heard that his sister was missing an arm and a leg.

The Huo family only has this one precious child. If something happens to him, wouldn't the world collapse?!

He practically lunged at him, yelling, "Boss, help!"

Wu Zhao pushed Gu Chen's wheelchair in front of her with a look of disdain.

Huo Tingchen, who had stopped abruptly in front of the wheelchair, chuckled awkwardly: "Boss, are you implying that my sister is in danger if she's with Shen Jiaojiao?"

"You, a grown man, were almost killed by her schemes, how could your naive and innocent little sister possibly escape?"

Touching the gemstone on the ring, Wu Zhao said, "Your sister has the same destiny as you, a life of wealth and honor. If it weren't for Shen Jiaojiao, she would have met her true love in two years and then been pampered and blessed with a long and happy life."

"However, just now after she agreed to participate in this program with Shen Jiaojiao, her appearance changed... It's a sign of a bumpy love life and a desolate old age."

Huo Tingchen: !

"That definitely won't work, I'll lock her up at home right now!"

To everyone's surprise, Wu Zhao shook his head. "It's no use. After she agreed, her fate was already tied to Shen Jiaojiao. Even if you lock her up at home this time, Shen Jiaojiao will still scheme against her in other ways next time."

Gu Chen's hand slowly tightened. He asked, "Is there... a way to avoid this?"

“Yes, boss, Weiwei is so young. What if she becomes disabled…” Huo Tingchen said, then hesitated, a little embarrassed.

Seeing his hesitation, Wu Zhao waved his hand: "I don't need to get angry with a little girl. Don't worry, since I saved you, I can save her too."

"I'm sorry," Gu Chen said apologetically, "her family spoiled her."

"It's alright, after all, they're your juniors, I won't hold it against them." Wu Zhao smiled, she was still very tolerant of her own people.

Huo Tingchen was relieved, and then asked, "So, are you still going to participate in that program?"

“I won’t go.” Wu Zhao’s refusal was still very decisive. She said directly, “I will give her a life-saving talisman. If it is activated, I will be able to sense it.”

"As for participating in that program, I have no interest."

Wu Zhao preferred to stay at home and study the evil spirit inside the ring.

After all, there was no news of her after the crow snatched the finger bone, and the things she left on the finger bone seemed to have been covered up.

She hated the feeling of being led around by others in the face of such unknown dangers.

Just as Wu Zhao took out the talisman paper to draw a talisman, Wu Xingyun's hurried footsteps came from outside.

He ran quickly into the house, exclaiming, "My goodness, I'm completely convinced!"

Wu Zhao paused for a moment, and the lines he drew were slightly off-center.

A vein throbbed on her forehead.

Why is this brat making such a fuss?!

Huo Tingchen watched as Wu Zhao's aura turned icy cold.

He realized something was wrong. "Uh... I just received a batch of very high-quality cinnabar from somewhere a few days ago. I'll go get it right now!"

Gu Chen clasped his hands together, covered his lips, and coughed lightly twice: "I'm a little thirsty, I'll go get some water."

Seeing that Gu Chen and Huo Tingchen had both left, Wu Xingyun curiously approached Wu Zhao and began chattering, "I just called the Yan family, and they called me right away!"

"I thought the Yan family had complained to the family again... but that's not true at all! I was just laughing at Huo Tingchen for having a disobedient sister, but I never thought the tables would turn!"

Huh? Wu Zhao stopped raising his hand, which was about to hit his head.

Wu Xingyun hadn't realized it yet, and continued to accuse: "My sister said that my uncle's sister ran away from home! She said that my aunt stopped her from chasing stars and controlled her freedom."

"This child almost gave his aunt a heart attack! By the grace of the ancestral sorcerer, will this child be struck by lightning?!"

Wu Zhao's hand twitched. How did this brat know she liked to chop up ignorant juniors?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Wu Xingyun explained, "You may not know my family situation. My uncle's younger sister has never been involved in metaphysics and doesn't really believe in this kind of thing."

“My aunt was seriously injured when she was catching evil spirits in her early years, so she has been recuperating and I haven’t been able to spend much time with her, which has led to her becoming very rebellious… In recent years, she has suddenly become obsessed with celebrities. I never expected her to be such a fangirl.”

With a deep sigh, Wu Xingyun said helplessly, "She doesn't have much spiritual power and can't see those things, so her family doesn't let her come into contact with them..."

"Is the celebrity she's a fan of also Shen Jiaojiao?" Wu Zhao asked.

Wu Xingyun nodded: "My uncle just called me and told me that I found out. She wasn't like this before."

It involved both the Huo and Wu families, and they even included her in their scheme.

What exactly is Shen Jiaojiao up to?

Thinking of those fans who were crazy about Shen Jiaojiao, Wu Zhao clicked his tongue and twirled his ring.

"This is interesting. Is Shen Jiaojiao digging a pit for me, just waiting for me to fall into it?"

Two buzzing sounds.

Wu Zhao took out his phone and raised an eyebrow.

An unfamiliar text message caught my eye on my phone:

—I have what you want; you can trade it for Grandma's jade gourd.

—Shen Zhaozhao, let's make a deal?
