Chapter 267: Did You Really Only Drink a Little?
Chu Luo nodded at them. “Okay.”
Qin Ya stood up and called the servant standing by the door. “Help Miss Chu up.”
Chu Luo waved her hand and refused. “No need. I’ll walk by myself.”
Seeing that she could stand up, Qin Ya nodded. “Alright, I’ll send you to the guest room.”
Qin Ya led Chu Luo and a servant towards the guest room. Qin Xiang did not follow.
Chu Luo realized that the two bodyguards Li Yan had sent to follow her were no longer standing by the back door. They had obviously been taken away by the Qin family using a smokescreen.
The Qin family’s guest room wasn’t far behind the villa, but they had to walk through an ornamental forest that was as tall as a person. They couldn’t see this side from the garden.
When they reached the guest room door, Qin Ya’s mouth was a little dry. She said to Chu Luo, “Sister Chu, I’ll leave a servant with you. You can just instruct her if there’s anything you need. After the banquet ends, I’ll get Li Yan to send someone to pick you up.”
Before Chu Luo could answer, Qin Ya couldn’t stand it anymore and left in a hurry.
The servant opened the guest room door and was about to help Chu Luo in when Chu Luo cast a cold glance at her. The servant’s heart skipped a beat and she stopped.
Chu Luo walked in and closed the door.
The servant stood by the door and didn’t leave.
Chu Luo sat at the table in the guest room and waited.
While she waited, she moved the ear stud on her ear and quickly heard Li Yan’s slightly hoa.r.s.e voice. “Luoluo.”
Chu Luo asked in a low voice, “How are you?”
Li Yan: “I drank a little.”
“Mm?” Chu Luo didn’t believe him. “You really only drank a little?”
“More than a little.” Li Yan let out a low laugh. “Why? Honey, you called to check up on me.”
Chu Luo blushed and snorted at him.
Li Yan retracted his smile and said, “I happened to come out to take a breather. Where are you?”
Chu Luo said, “I’m in a room behind the villa.”
Li Yan must have recalled what happened in the US last time. The voice from his ear stud instantly turned cold. “If anyone dares to come later, castrate him directly.”
Chu Luo smiled. “Got it. I’ll come look for you after I’m done here.”
“Mm.”
Chu Luo put down her hand and waited for almost two minutes before footsteps came from outside the door.
Then, a servant said respectfully, “Second Master.”
“You can leave now.”
The servant left.
Qin Zhao knocked on the door.
Chu Luo sat there and didn’t respond.
Sure enough, after Qin Zhao knocked on the door three times, he pushed it open and walked in.
He was holding a video recorder in one hand.
When he met Chu Luo’s bright black eyes, he even paused.
However, in the next second, he narrowed his eyes and smiled. “So Miss Chu hasn’t rested?”
Chu Luo’s tone was calm. “Second Young Master Qin suddenly barged into a female guest’s room and is even holding a camera. What are you trying to do?”
When Qin Zhao heard this, the smile on his face didn’t disappear. Instead, it deepened as he stared at her face and said, “I heard from Third Sister that you were a little unwell and went out of my way to bring you some medicine. This camera is obviously for filming the most beautiful scene in the world.”
With that, he extended his hand. There was indeed a small bottle of medicine in his palm.
Qin Zhao slowly walked towards her and sized her up with a piercing gaze. “I definitely have to care about Miss Chu’s health when she feels unwell at our house. Otherwise, if Li Yan pursues the matter, we won’t be able to explain ourselves.”
Chu Luo looked at the approaching Qin Zhao and casually drew a circle on the table.
Qin Zhao walked up to her. First, he turned on the camera in his hand and placed it on the table. In the next second, he anxiously wanted to grab her fair and smooth hand.
However, as his hand approached, a ball of flames suddenly jumped out of the circle Chu Luo had drawn and burned the back of his hand.
“Ooh…”
Qin Zhao was burned by the fire, and the burning pain made him retract his hand abruptly. At the same time, he looked at Chu Luo, who was still acting indifferently, in disbelief. His expression turned cold. “What did you do on the table just now?”
Chu Luo glanced at him. “Can’t you tell?”
After saying that, she tapped on the camera on his desk.
In the next second, the image on the camera distorted and turned into a black screen.
Qin Zhao’s face darkened instantly. He stared at her hand for a few seconds before smiling.
“Looks like the rumors about you knowing a little magic are true.”
Chu Luo didn’t answer.
Qin Zhao continued to look at her hand. Not only was there no fear on his face, but there was also a strong excitement. “Coincidentally, I have a friend who knows magic too. Why don’t… you guys spar? If you lose, just lie there and let me…”
Pa!
Chu Luo didn’t even move, but Qin Zhao’s face was slapped, stunning him.
“Let you what?” Chu Luo looked at Qin Zhao with a murderous glint in her eyes.
Qin Zhao had never been slapped before. When he came back to his senses, intense anger instantly appeared in his eyes.
He raised his hand to touch the side of his face that was burning from the slap. A vicious glint appeared in his eyes. “Looks like if I don’t teach you a lesson, you’ll be…”
Pa!
“F*ck!” Fury finally appeared in Qin Zhao’s eyes. He quickly snapped his fingers, and a man in a black robe appeared in the room.
When Qin Zhao saw him, he pointed at Chu Luo and said fiercely, “Capture this woman and throw her onto the bed. Since Li Yan dared to touch my younger brother, I’ll make him a cuckold.”
He even let out a terrifying laugh.
Black Robe’s voice carried an indescribable vicissitude and gloominess. “Second Young Master Qin, why are you in such a hurry? This person harmed my two disciples. I plan to teach her a lesson.”
“Okay, but you have to leave her a last breath. She’s Li Yan’s woman, I must have a good time…”
Pa! Pa!
“F…”
Pa! Pa!
“Capture her quickly!”
At this moment, Qin Zhao’s face had been beaten up into a pig’s head. He was furious.
Black Robe walked up to Chu Luo and waved his hand. A string of red bells surrounded her.
“Soul Locking Bell?”
“Looks like you know a lot.”
After Black Robe finished speaking, he raised his finger and the Soul Locking Bell quickly surrounded Chu Luo and started spinning in midair.
This kind of Soul Locking Bell could be considered an ancient divine artifact. Its power was definitely enormous.
The hairpin on Chu Luo’s head was shattered by the Soul Locking Bell’s aura.
Her long, seaweed-like hair fell over her shoulders, making Qin Zhao, who was standing at the side, stare blankly.
Black Robe quickly muttered something. After a while, Chu Luo and his figure disappeared from the room.
In the next second, the two of them arrived in an empty s.p.a.ce.
Chu Luo glanced around. There were all kinds of puppets piled up, and a pair of eyes with no sclera[1] stared over.
Timid ones would have long been scared out of their wits.
Chu Luo looked at Black Robe, who was working hard to set up an array. After he stopped, she suggested with a sincere expression, “Your Soul Locking Array isn’t set up properly. Why don’t you check again?”
Black Robe sneered. “Then let me see if you can break this array.”
As he spoke, his voice deepened. “If you can’t break it, you can accompany my puppets. After I refine someone like you with such beauty into a puppet, you’ll definitely be able to help me with twice the result using half the effort. Hahaha…”
With that, he retreated from the array formation.
However, in the next second, his eyes widened.
He realized that he couldn’t leave the array at all.
Chu Luo giggled. “I told you this array wasn’t set up properly, but you didn’t believe me. Look, I only tampered with it a little and you already can’t get out.”
When Black Robe heard this, his pupils shrank. “When did you do that?!”
Chu Luo smiled and said in a nasty tone, “Guess.”
“Hmph! I don’t believe a young la.s.s like you can trap me in the array I set up.”
After saying that, he loudly practiced an incantation and quickly disappeared.
However, in the next second, he returned to his original position.
Chu Luo watched calmly as this person disappeared and returned.
A minute later, she lost her patience. With a tap of her finger, this person was pinned to the ground.
That person was already a little shocked. He raised his right hand and saw more than ten puppets move at the same time.
The moving puppets looked like humans, but upon closer inspection, they only had sclera. They were obviously soulless zombies.
“Indeed, the master determines how a disciple can turn out. Aren’t you afraid of being punished by the heavens by digging other people’s graves?”
“Haha! I’m Immortal Master Huang. With my abilities, even divine retribution can’t do anything to me.”
“Really? Then I’ll enforce justice on behalf of the heavens today.”
After Chu Luo finished speaking, her body suddenly emitted a sparkling white light. In the white light, her clothes and hair moved without wind.
“Ancient divine artifact, Phoenix Zither!”
The moment the Phoenix Zither was played, the entire s.p.a.ce was enveloped by a red light. Chu Luo didn’t play it, but it started playing.
Amid the ancient melody, the entire s.p.a.ce’s aura instantly changed, becoming solemn.
Chu Luo’s body started moving gracefully. She turned her toes and actually started dancing.
Immortal Master Huang’s heart skipped a beat.
In no time, all the puppets in the s.p.a.ce knelt down before her.
The fear in Immortal Master Huang magnified because of Chu Luo’s dance. In the end, he widened his eyes and said with trembling lips, “You… you actually know how to dance the sacrificial dance from the ancient legends.”
After saying that, he wanted to stop Chu Luo.
However, after he took a step, a ball of flames suddenly darted out from under his feet and started burning.
“h.e.l.l Fire!”
The fear in Immortal Master Huang’s heart reached an unprecedented level. He quickly retracted his leg.
