Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 376 - 359: Hong Jingxue’s Hallucination

"Hehehe..."

Li Yunhe’s hands were tied, but he showed no hint of displeasure, even wishing to say about the exhilarating battle just now: Refreshing!

"I haven’t fought such an invigorating battle in ages!"

From his visible appearance, he seemed quite pleased compared to before.

He squinted his eyes at Mu Yunchu, like a venomous snake lurking and ready to strike in the dark. The emotions contained in that gaze were complex, not entirely kind, nor completely hostile.

Especially his current state, which made Mu Yunchu have a faint ominous premonition.

As the clouds overhead gathered completely, they unleashed torrents of lightning.

Strikes of thunder hit the ground, creating an extremely spectacular scene.

At this moment, Li Yunhe suddenly spread his hands as if he was welcoming something.

"Little girl, seems like we’ll meet again next time."

Immediately, the largest strike came crashing down.

Mu Yunchu: !

In an instant, blinding light completely enveloped Li Yunhe’s body, leaving nothing visible but white light.

Mu Yunchu was jolted back by the thunder, feeling astonished.

When the lightning disappeared, she quickly looked to where he was, only to find Li Yunhe’s figure was long gone.

Judging by his reaction, she didn’t believe Li Yunhe was struck dead by the lightning. On the contrary, she felt he had escaped at that moment.

She had never seen such magic.

Thinking about how such a great opportunity let Li Yunhe escape, she felt immensely frustrated, as if something was stuck in her chest.

Just a bit more.

Just a bit more and she could’ve avenged her master.

The fist tightly clenched at her side relaxed after enduring for over ten seconds.

On the way back to the hotel, she informed Wei Xianzhong about the incident via a call.

Upon learning that she had gone to confront Li Yunhe alone, his first reaction wasn’t to inquire about the battle’s outcome but to scold her for being too impulsive.

"You are a rare talent for our country, and Li Yunhe has lived for seventy or eighty years; even with your high talent, you may not be his match. Next time there’s such a situation, make sure to inform us beforehand."

Wei Xianzhong said although most of his team couldn’t compare to Mu Yunchu’s strength, as the saying goes, there’s strength in numbers. It’s better than attending alone.

Losing Mu Yunchu would be an unacceptable loss for them.

Knowing his concern, Mu Yunchu didn’t argue much but explained that the situation at the time didn’t allow her to seek help.

"Li Yunhe’s whereabouts are elusive. If I hadn’t seized this opportunity, it would’ve been hard for me to find him."

Wei Xianzhong apparently consented to this statement.

"However..." Mu Yunchu remembered something, "Is Li Yunhe really seventy or eighty years old?"

"Absolutely." Wei Xianzhong paused slightly, "Why?"

"But when I saw him tonight, his appearance looked only around forty."

"Really?"

This statement startled Wei Xianzhong.

"I’ll have someone look into this matter further."

Changing the topic, he pinpointed the key in Mu Yunchu’s previous words.

"Did that guy try to attack you?"

"Do you need me to find someone to protect you?"

He believed that the ghost summoned by Li Yunhe in the hotel must have been targeting Mu Yunchu.

And the reason was naturally that the other party feared Mu Yunchu’s existence. Since the establishment of Bureau 749, he hadn’t heard of anyone with such terrifying strength.

Moreover, Mu Yunchu was only twenty now, if she diligently cultivated for decades, it wouldn’t be imaginable.

Little did he know, Li Yunhe was actually targeting Wen Xu.

Thinking about how Wen Xu had been with her recently and disliked interacting with strangers, she politely declined Wei Xianzhong’s goodwill.

"Okay then, I feel you must have a sense of control."

Wei Xianzhong didn’t press further.

The main thing was he feared that if his people couldn’t protect Mu Yunchu, it would backfire, forcing her to protect them, which would be embarrassing.

Therefore, since the other party refused, he didn’t insist.

He only advised, "Be careful in the future."

"This shows Li Yunhe has set his sights on you."

Though Li Yunhe managed to escape somehow, Mu Yunchu knew he must’ve been injured. Plus, after that final trick, he shouldn’t cause trouble in the short term.

So she wasn’t too worried about what Wei Xianzhong said.

She was more curious why, at the hotel, the ghosts summoned seemed like two teams.

Could it be...

Mu Yunchu closed her eyes and began calculating, soon furrowing her brow, but the information received was very limited.

However, it could be certain that the ones wishing Wen Xu dead were two individuals.

...

After Hong Jingxue hung up the call with Li Yunhe, she started having her assistant help her draw blood.

When a bowl of blood was drawn, her body, long starved due to dieting, instantly felt empty.

But thinking the substance was so useful, she gritted her teeth, thinking she could eat more to replenish later.

She had money, could buy any nutritious thing. If worse came, technology was an option.

So she simply wasn’t worried.

Now, killing that ’couple’ was the most important thing.

Following the address given by Li Yunhe, she chose the fastest courier service, so the next day after stepping off the stage, she received news from him.

The efficiency of the action still left her very satisfied.

Li Yunhe completed the ritual and informed Hong Jingxue.

The latter wasn’t in the city but was out of town.

Upon knowing they would soon die, Hong Jingxue couldn’t sit still.

She directly paid a penalty and ended the shoot of that show.

The result was unacceptable to the director, even to her agent, who frantically called her repeatedly, but she ignored them all.

A mere few million in penalty.

How could it compare to witnessing the death of those two?

Annoyed by the harassment, she turned off her phone, boarded a plane, and took a taxi to Mu Yunchu’s store.

Only to learn she had gone out.

This made her furious.

She wanted to ask where Mu Yunchu had gone, but Ye Zhixia refused to reveal anything.

She had no choice but to return to the car.

However, while crossing the street, Hong Jingxue sensed something amiss.

She felt as if something was following her.

But upon turning back, the street was empty except for her.

Retracting her gaze, the feeling still lingered around her.

Suppressing the discomfort, she lit a cigarette in the car. The nicotine soothed her mind a bit. But once the cigarette was out, soon the creepy sensation returned more intensely.

Worse, she began seeing illusions.

A bloodstained baby was slowly crawling toward her from outside, reaching her car door within merely ten seconds.
