Is it bad for your health?
She knows it's bad for her health.
After all, who can resist all their tricks!
There's still so much time... cough cough cough.
The Demon King finally lost his temper: "Rena, if you want to die, I'll grant your wish today!"
"Lord Ghost King, please don't be angry."
Rena snorted and quickly hid behind the mayor.
"I'm just stating the facts, I'm not making things up about you!"
Indeed, these are all facts.
The Ghost King clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
Knowing about these side effects, she didn't refuse Ryoko's offer to stay!
Moreover, she has been using that stew pot to make soup for Su Yu, nourishing her body from time to time.
She has done everything she could.
Even if she does all that, does she still not deserve to stay by Su Yu's side?
"Lord Ghost King, is there nothing to explain?" The mayor's face was unreadable: "If you have nothing more to say, please leave."
The Ghost King sighed.
She vigorously rubbed her hair.
Say something?
She has to say something now!
“She’s telling the truth, and I have nothing to say in my defense. It’s my first time meeting the parents, and I don’t know what to do to please my mother…”
As she spoke, she suddenly stood up excitedly.
"But! But, I didn't follow Xiaoyu on a whim! I'm willing to give my life and my possessions to her!"
Rena clicked her tongue: "Do goblins have true feelings?"
The town mayor remained silent.
Rena added insult to injury: "Lord Demon King, you've told a lot of lies in your life, haven't you? Do you even believe what you say? Sweet talk and manipulating people is your forte, isn't it!"
"Rena, you talk too much."
"Mayor...?"
"Alright. Go patrol the streets. You don't need to worry about this place."
"Ok."
Rena retreated dejectedly.
Before leaving, she even caught a glimpse of the Ghost King's smug look!
"cut."
No matter what, Rena didn't believe the ghosts' words.
After all, she had actually witnessed the Ghost King go back on his word and indiscriminately kill innocent people!
The town mayor, resting his chin on his hand, looked Su Yu up and down: "Xiao Yu, do you really like them?"
"Ah."
Upon hearing Su Yu's affirmative answer, Ghost King and Ryoko sat up straight in unison.
Its tail was also exposed, wagging incessantly under the table.
"If you like someone, you should treat them well."
The mayor patted her on the shoulder and smiled kindly:
"You can't be as willful as a child anymore."
As she spoke, she gave a wink to the fifth brother who had been waiting for a long time, signaling him to take Su Yu to the pavilion next door to discuss business.
After she got Su Yu away, she resumed her previous cold expression.
"You two just said you're willing to give your lives to Xiaoyu, is that true?"
The Ghost King was stunned for a moment.
Something's not right about this atmosphere.
However, when facing Su Yu's mother, she still sat properly and nodded.
"Then, let's prove it."
The mayor took out two wooden boxes from his sleeve and placed them in front of the Demon King and Ryoko respectively.
"This is the Soul-Soothing Box. If you sincerely entrust your soul to it, it will safeguard it for you very securely."
"I don't need you to put all the souls in, but at least half."
"In that case, I will trust you."
At this point, the mayor opened the box.
"Now, make your choice."
……
……
In the neighboring attic.
Su Yu and Lao Wu sat facing each other.
This cunning and shrewd businessman, used to swindling people, rarely encountered someone he dared not cheat. Throughout the entire encounter, he could only cower like a quail, speaking in hushed tones and frantically wiping away sweat.
Su Yu took out the food she had brought one by one and laid it out throughout the room.
Even the well-traveled fifth brother was stunned by the sheer number of goods.
When Su Yu took out those puzzle pieces, he couldn't sit still any longer.
"Miss Su! This is too big a deal. I'm afraid I can't handle it all by myself!"
Where would he get so much cash?
Su Yu said in a deep voice, "Then, you can exchange it for something."
Upon hearing this, the fifth brother gave a bitter laugh.
"Miss Su is too kind. I can still offer you something of equal value in exchange for these foods, but this puzzle piece..."
What's wrong with puzzles?
"I really can't eat these puzzle pieces, and I don't dare to eat them." The fifth brother looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping before he whispered, "Only the Dragon Heart on the black market can buy these things."
Su Yu pondered for a moment, then asked, "Is Long Xin an easy person to talk to?"
"That's the problem, Miss Su."
The fifth brother gave a bitter smile.
"If you weren't the mayor's daughter, things would be easier to talk to. But now, Long Xin and the mayor are mortal enemies, so I'm afraid she'll only be able to trick you."
It turned out to be the case.
Su Yu had no choice but to temporarily put the puzzle pieces away.
After exchanging and trading these foods, she obtained nearly 100 million yuan in ghost money.
The fifth brother hurriedly left with the things, while Su Yu carefully put away the ghost money.
She looked up and gazed in the direction where the Ghost King and the others were sitting.
Suddenly, she noticed something unusual.
What are those two doing?
Why can I sense that their strength is being forcibly halved?!
Could it be that Mom still wants to harm them?!
Thinking of this, Su Yu disregarded everything else and rushed down from the three-story pavilion.
Just as the ritual to sever the soul was about to be completed, Su Yu suddenly pressed down on the lids of the two treasure boxes.
"stop!"
She glared fiercely at her mother.
What are you doing?!
The mayor sighed and shrugged: "I'm helping you to better control them."
"No need!"
Su Yu's eyes were already red, and her anger was written all over her face.
In that instant, she recalled the memories of going through life and death with the Ghost King and the other two.
"What right do you have to make decisions for me without my consent? What right do you have to hurt my people!"
Su Yu grabbed the hands of the Ghost King and Ryoko, and led them away.
The mayor called her from behind, but she didn't turn around.
The two big shots didn't say anything, just let Su Yu lead them around.
The Ghost King suddenly burst out laughing.
"Xiaoyu, are we going to elope?"
319. Young man, you've taken the wrong path!
