Chapter 139 Su Luoluo's Scheme (Bonus Chapter 2)

While crying, Su Nuannuan said meaningfully, "The sacred flame could also have been suddenly blown out by the wind. Last time, Luo Luo's house was struck by lightning, but she's fine now, isn't she?"

"The house was struck by lightning for no reason, which could be a punishment from the gods. But nothing happened to Lolo. He was even chosen by the gods to retrieve the sacred fire."

Upon hearing this, everyone's attitude changed again.

Su Nuannuan's words were not without reason, and sometimes people misunderstood the meaning of the gods.

Su Yang glanced at Su Luoluo, and seeing that she didn't say anything, he waved his hand and said, "Next."

Su Nuannuan thus entered a state of "pending".

Some people suspected that she was responsible for the poisoned salt, while others felt that they had misunderstood the gods' intentions.

But when the next person went over to make a promise to the sacred flame, the flame was reignited.

The people present then exchanged subtle glances, their eyes sweeping over Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan still stood up straight, looking like true gold that fears no fire.

However, she wasn't entirely fearless.

She felt a sense of panic, but at the same time, she still had some doubts about Su Luoluo.

Every time someone walked up to the sacred flame, she stared intently at Su Luoluo, watching to see if she would tamper with it.

However, she behaved normally and showed no reaction at all.

Su Luoluo was somewhat surprised by Su Nuannuan's composure.

She was surprised that she was so calm, but she didn't believe that her mind wasn't flustered at all.

When it was the turn of the next few people, the sacred flame had shrunk considerably.

The orcs were also astonished. "Impossible! How could I poison the salt? I didn't do anything!"

The fact that three more people had the same experience as her made Su Nuannuan feel much more at ease.

She didn't say anything, but kept a wronged expression on her face, as if everyone had just wronged her.

When everyone saw that the other people's sacred flames had also shrunk, their attitude towards Su Nuannuan instantly improved.

This matter indeed had nothing to do with Su Nuannuan.

Seeing this, Su Yang didn't know what Su Luoluo was up to, so he glanced at her.

Su Luoluo looked at the four people chosen by the Holy Flame and said slowly, "Perhaps the gods want to give you a chance to admit your mistakes and correct them. You should think about it carefully and talk to the Holy Flame again tomorrow."

After Su Luoluo finished speaking, she left. Seeing her leave, Su Yang waved his hand and said, "Let's do as Luoluo says. We'll call it a day."

Fu Feng, Xiao Ye, Mo Xuan, Nan Tu, and Xi Yi thought Su Luoluo would have other ways to continue the investigation, but unexpectedly, this was the end of it.

The group, completely bewildered, followed Su Luoluo out.

After following behind Su Luoluo for a while, Nan Tu finally couldn't hold back and said, "Su Luoluo, you must have other ideas, right?"

Su Luoluo smiled and said, "Guess."

Under the bright moonlight, Su Luoluo's eyes were somewhat cunning, much like a fox in the mountains.

Nan Tu glanced at her and his heart pounded wildly. Su Luoluo always managed to seduce him so easily.

Xi Yi stroked his chin and looked at Su Luoluo, "What's your backup plan? Tell us about it."

He was also very curious about what Su Luoluo was really up to.

Su Luoluo already needed their help, so she didn't hide it from them. After glancing around to make sure no one was there, she whispered a few words in their ears.

Mo Xuan suddenly understood after hearing this, but at the same time hesitated and asked, "Are you sure these people will fall for it?"

Su Luoluo said confidently, "Of course, people who have done wrong are most afraid of divine punishment. They can't sleep tonight, so they naturally have to come out for a walk."

"You guys better keep a close watch on this and find him for me."

The five people nodded and said in unison, "No problem."

After returning to her room, Su Nuannuan tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Although Su Luoluo couldn't find out it was her, she remained uneasy.

She observed carefully. When the others faced the sacred flame, although the flames shrank, they were nowhere near as small as hers, which was just emitting sparks. Then a gust of wind blew by, and her little spark was completely extinguished.

Perhaps it really is a divine intervention.

Lying or doing bad things in front of the gods can easily incur their displeasure.

She was terrified that she would be rejected by the gods.

She analyzed in her mind that in this situation, the best thing to do was to repent to the gods first, and she would definitely change her ways and never do such a thing again.

The god is a kind person and will forgive her for the lies she had to tell out of necessity.

She promised that once she gets through this difficult time, she will definitely turn to good.

We can't go to the Sacred Flame House. What happened today was very likely done by Su Luoluo on purpose. Maybe she sent someone to wait for her at the Sacred Flame House.

However, one does not necessarily have to go to a place where gods reside to kneel and pray for forgiveness.

She can go out and kneel in worship facing east.

This is what they do when they encounter danger in the wild.

Thinking of this, she got up from the animal skin quilt, tiptoed out of the house, and headed out into the wilderness.

She traveled eastward until she was far enough away from the tribe, then knelt before the eastern moon and confessed:

"Gods, I did indeed poison the salt, but I had no intention of harming anyone. I just wanted to take back what was rightfully mine. Please help me, Gods. I promise I will turn to good from now on."

"Oh! So it really was you who did it, Su Nuannuan."

"And we trusted you so much!"

"I never expected you to be two-faced; I almost fell for your tricks."

Before Su Nuannuan could finish speaking, a large group of people suddenly rushed out, pointing their fingers at her and cursing.

She glanced around and spotted Su Luoluo, Xiao Ye and Xi Yi in a corner, as well as Fu Feng and Mo Xuan, who had brought their entourage.

Her legs buckled, and she instantly knelt on the ground, her face deathly pale.

Su Yang never expected that his adopted daughter would do such a thing. He looked at her with disappointment: "Nuan Nuan, what happened to you?"

Seeing that her scheme had been exposed, Su Nuannuan raised her head as if to fall headfirst, when suddenly a shower of water poured down from the sky and drenched her face.

Su Luoluo said with a smile, "I'll splash some water on you to wake you up so you don't faint."

Su Nuannuan's face was wet, and her eyes naturally opened wider.

The onlookers were somewhat incredulous that someone as kind as Su Nuannuan could turn out like this.

Some of the orcs who admired her were even prepared to speak up in her defense.

Suddenly, I noticed that Su Nuannuan's fair face had turned yellowish, and upon closer inspection, there were also small red bumps on it, which looked dense and somewhat creepy.

"Oh my god! How did Su Nuannuan suddenly become so ugly!"

"Has she been disfigured?"

"Look, her right cheek is also covered in little red bumps, it's so ugly!"

"How did she become like this? She looks even uglier than Su Luoluo."

Instantly, a cacophony of voices filled her ears.

Su Nuannuan covered her face in horror and buried herself in the ground.

Su Yang sighed and pointed to the two people beside him, saying, "You two help Nuan Nuan up and lock her in the dark room for now."

After saying that, he glanced at the orcs watching and said, "It's getting late, everyone disperse! We can talk about it tomorrow!"

Seeing that Su Nuannuan had been caught red-handed, Su Luoluo happily swayed her hips back to the cabin.

Fu Feng watched her swaying waist, his eyes darkened, and he followed her.

Xiao Ye licked his lips and vanished from the spot in an instant.
